Chapter 22: Souls as Ghosts
"Murder! Killed! ”
There was a mess in the house, and people couldn't believe that this old lady, who usually looked kind, could be such a cruel demon, with one corpse and two lives, and both mother and son were killed by her!
The old lady was knocked to the ground, foaming blood in her mouth and saying, "Stop fighting! That's not a daughter-in-law! Your daughter-in-law is long dead! ”
The mother's family cares about this, crying and shouting, and continue to beat this midwife inhumanely! The mother's husband was a little knowledgeable, stopped his son, and put his stick against the old lady's throat and asked, "Tell me, what's wrong with my daughter-in-law?" What is this thing that was born? ”
The old lady had a blue nose and swollen face, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said: "This one was born, it is the corpse Tai Sui, it is to eat your whole family, I don't cut the umbilical cord short, just to prevent it from running, a few days ago, didn't many people die in the city?" It's all about it! ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this! Although I think what the old lady said is more, but... This maternity is implicated underneath... It's not a baby, it's true, and... The smell of meat emitted by this blackened meat ball is extremely weird and evil! One has to wonder!
The old lady spat out a knocked out tooth and continued: "This thing cannot be burned with fire, nor can it be cut with a knife or axe, but only... Use salt to precipitate its water so that it can be killed. ”
As he spoke, he saw that the ball of meat in the washbasin had dried up into a scab like seaweed and kelp, shrunk into a lump, and the thick aroma of meat dissipated, followed by a pungent and spicy stench, like a piece of dead man's rotten and air-dried internal organs!
And at this time, the skin of the strangled female corpse also began to turn green and flow out of mucus, which quickly rotted, her eyes bulged out, and her tongue was sticking out, and the head was like a pig's head that had been dehaired with asphalt!
This situation frightened the family, and people almost believed it... The old lady didn't lie to them.
The old lady rushed at the young man who beat her and said, "Your daughter-in-law... She has long been dead, although her body is still alive, her soul has long since become a ghost, and her body can be burned, but... cough cough cough, the corpse Tai Sui must be soaked in a large salt, wrapped in a copper box, and hung in an unknown place, not next to the ground..... Ahem. ”
The old man coughed violently, and was beaten lightly, and the stench smoked his nose...... After saying that, he fainted.
Although the facts are in front of them, the mother's family can't accept it, after all, there is no one alive.
The theories that the old lady said could not be explained by science, and the public would not believe it, and in the end, the mother's family still sued her to the Public Security Bureau, and the first-instance verdict was intentional homicide and the death penalty!
The old man was shot and executed immediately, and the corpse that became a dry child, Tai Sui, the mother's family did not dare to slack off, and strictly followed the old lady's instructions, wrapped it in salt, put it in a copper box, and hung it somewhere......
There is nothing more fucked up than this, in order to save people, but the people who saved were killed, and he was ruined, and he couldn't get anyone's sympathy and mercy, but since then, until the second uncle joined the army, I never heard of anyone missing.
"Second uncle, what is that corpse Tai Sui?" I asked curiously.
The second uncle smiled: "This... The first thing you have to understand is, what is Tai Sui? ”
"I've seen it on "Approaching Science", saying that Tai Sui is just a fungus, like a mushroom, just buried in the ground and not seen the light of day, not as evil as you say," I replied in a wink.
The second uncle nodded: "Yes, you are talking about Tai Sui fungus, not Tai Sui, really Tai Sui, that is a very terrible thing, there are many types of Tai Sui, the corpse Tai Sui is just one of them, and there are Shi Tai Sui, Earth Tai Sui, Mu Tai Sui, Meat Tai Sui, once these things are released, there will be endless troubles." ”
Then, the second uncle told me about the origin of this Tai Sui.
It is said that when King Wu fell, the two sons of King Wu, one was called Yin Jiao, and the other was called Yin Hong, this Tai Sui was the body of the eldest son Yin Jiao.
At that time, Queen Jiang was killed, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong escaped from Chaoge, and were chased and killed by the king of Zhou, Yin Jiao rescued Guangchengzi, and practiced a skill in Jiuhua Mountain, which was originally to let him assist Jiang Ziya in crusading against Shang, but halfway down the mountain, he met Shen Gongbao, and under some rhetoric, Yin Jiao changed his original intention, turned against Jiang Ziya, and helped him to abuse.
This Yin suburb deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors, and even injured his master Guangchengzi with the Fantian seal passed down by the teacher, and was later defeated by Jiang Ziya and the people of the Burning Lamp Dao, introduced into Qishan, and died by ploughing. After King Wu destroyed Shang, Jiang Ziya was awarded the title of "God of Tai Sui Tai Sui" by the edict of Taishang Laojun and Yuan Shi Tianzun.
The second uncle said that when Yin Jiao went down the mountain, he made an oath that if he violated his original intention, he would be willing to be punished by ploughing, and it was this sentence that made him an evil god who lurked underground and poisoned creatures in the future. The so-called Tai Sui can't move the ground on his head, that's the reason.
"Second uncle, what is the punishment of ploughing?" I asked curiously.
The second uncle smiled and said, "This is very understandable, bury the person in the soil, come out with his head exposed, and use the plough of the plough to plow over his head......"
I'll go! It's fucking cruel! I gasped, the people at that time were really savage!
"Yin Jiao's head is broken by the plow, but his body is still buried in the soil, because he thinks that Tai Sui, Tai Sui has many doppelgangers, hidden in the unknown underground depths, and there are endless troubles after digging it out, and the Tai Sui fungus you are talking about is not the same thing as Tai Sui, but it looks a little similar, it is all a ball of meat, it will sweat, and the water absorption will become bigger," the second uncle explained.
I was embarrassed when I heard it, and asked again: "The second uncle, the old midwife, what did she say... Is it true? ”
The second uncle sighed lightly: "This incident is not my personal experience, it is also hearsay, it is difficult to determine how many exaggerated elements there are, but it is true that Tai Sui was removed, the old lady strangled the mother and was sentenced to death, which is also a case that everyone in the county knows." ”
"Second uncle, what are you doing in a woman's belly? Does it also have to be reincarnated? I asked curiously.
The second uncle laughed and said, "That's not good, maybe, I didn't think about that, it's just... I suspect that this woman must have been tempted by the smell of meat, and swallowed a piece of Tai Sui meat, so that she became like that, Xiaoyu, there are many things in this world that cannot be completely understood, and there are some truths... Only God knows. ”
I nodded silently, yes, I'm afraid a lot of things really only God knows. Just like the Tai Sui bronze coffin embedded in the wall, who was it and when did it bury it? What's the use? The general holding the Fang Tian painting halberd carved and painted outside is afraid that it is the true appearance of Tai Sui Yin Jiao.
"Second uncle......" I looked up at him in confusion.
"What's wrong Xiaoyu, why are you looking at you?" The second uncle smiled and lit another cigarette.
"What you just said... The old lady said that people are still alive, but their souls have become ghosts, is there really such a thing? What kind of state is that? I asked curiously.
The second uncle touched my head: "You kid, you have a lot of thoughts a day." ”
He took a puff of his cigarette, his expression was slightly solemn, and he sighed: "I don't know what kind of state it is, but I heard my comrades-in-arms talk about a... Something like that. ”
The second uncle's comrade-in-arms is from Shanghai, and the story that happened is exactly what happened to his relative's family.
In the sixties and seventies of the last century, intellectuals across the country went to the countryside to join the queue, and a large number of middle school students left the cities and went to the countryside to receive re-education from the poor and middle peasants.
The eldest aunt of the second uncle's comrade-in-arms has a smart and beautiful cousin, who looks like that, not to mention how handsome she is, the girl has received a good education since she was a child, she is knowledgeable and wise, and in that year, she can actually play the violin!
But the family composition is not good, and if you want to join the army, you have no choice, so you have to follow a large number of educated youths, go to the countryside to cut the queue, and practice red hearts in a broad world.
The girl left for five years, and when she returned to the city, she was already a twenty-three-year-old girl, and the whole family was very happy, and the mother hugged her and cried with joy, and the daughter finally came back......
However, after staying at home for two days, the parents found that there was something wrong with their daughter, and they always took advantage of people's inattention, secretly spit on their hands, and then rubbed back and forth, thinking of how educated their daughter used to be, how could she do such a thing?
"Nan, how can you do this?" Mother asked in surprise.
The daughter didn't care, and argued: "Mom, you are really a backward element!" What's so strange about that? The working people are ...... like this"
When my mother heard this, she was very sad and wanted to refute it, but she didn't know what to say, she just felt that her daughter had gone to the countryside all these years, and it was really ruined......
The environment makes people, and parents can't help it, after all, they are their own flesh and blood, just come back well, but what happened one night completely changed this family.
It was late one night, and my father was sleeping when he suddenly woke up in the middle of the night...... I heard movement in the hallway, like my daughter rummaging through a drawer.
It's already past two o'clock in the morning, what is this girl doing? The father wanted to ask, but he was afraid of disturbing his wife, so he secretly got out of bed, bent his waist, and looked out through the crack in the door.
By the moonlight that penetrated through the window, Dan saw that his daughter found a white candle, and then returned to his room in a hurry.
Father was puzzled, what the hell is this girl doing? There is no power outage at home, what are you looking for candles?
The sound of striking a match "bang" revealed a slightly flickering candlelight from her daughter's room.
Father tiptoeing... Gently pushed open the door, without making a sound, and quietly... Got close to my daughter's room......
He peeked in, but saw that in the room, his daughter was sitting at the table, snorting vigorously, as if she wanted to suck out the phlegm at the base of her nasal cavity, brewing repeatedly, and then coughed lightly and spit out a large mouthful of phlegm on her hands!
Father was stunned! Although I have seen my daughter do something like this before, tonight's behavior is particularly weird, and it seems that it is not only because of the working people...... What is this doing?
The daughter spits on her hands, rubbing them repeatedly, palms and backs of her hands... That action, it's a little... Let my father remember that the behavior of flies before eating is also the rubbing of two "arms" back and forth!
When I was young, something even more surprising happened to my father, after the daughter smeared some phlegm on her hands, she began to cover the flame of the candle and simmer slightly, she did not touch the flame, but seemed to be intentional... Use candles to evaporate the sticky phlegm on your hands!
A strange smell came out, and the father really couldn't stand his daughter's bad taste, and just about to stop it, he suddenly found that his daughter's originally white and delicate little hands quickly turned black, and a thin black hair like a pig's bristle grew on the skin!
That... Where is the manpower? Clear... It's the ghost claw, and then look at the flames, all that comes out are green light, weird and eerie!
