Chapter 13: The Soul Turns into a Bird
Luo Yi swallowed his saliva, grabbing the other with one hand, as if only in this way could he barely calm himself.
"I was ...... I was asking someone to help me find another midwife in the courtyard, but at this moment, I heard a scream from the house, followed by a loud 'bang', I rushed into the house, and saw my wife's stomach explode, flesh and blood flying, spraying all over the wall...... But...... But that's not the most terrifying," he looked at Cheng Muyou and said with all his strength, "My lord, there's something in the window next to the bed, I think...... It was that it smashed open the window edge and tried its best to get outside, but the window in my house was so small that it got stuck in the wall and couldn't break free......."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and even Yan Niang, who had always been calm, looked suspicious, and hesitated and asked, "Luo Yi, what does that thing look like, can you see it clearly?" ”
Luo Yi shook his head desperately, "I was already scared stupid, standing at the door, I didn't dare to take another step forward, but the only thing I know for sure is that that thing came out of my mother's belly, because it was covered in blood and fell all over the ground......"
Yan Niang's eyebrows were deeply locked, "What happened later?" Or did it run away? ”
Luo Yi nodded, "It seems to be very unwilling to be stuck in the wall, and its claws kicked the wall a few times, and finally rushed out, let out a strange scream, and ...... It's gone......"
Cheng Muyou tugged at his sleeve, "Wait, you just said...... Paw? That thing has claws? ”
Luo Yi was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened, as if he had just woken up from a dream, and said intermittently, "Yes...... yes, it has claws, how can I ...... Why did you forget, by the way," he suddenly turned his head and stared straight at Cheng Muyou, "Not only does it have claws, it should also be able to fly, otherwise, what's that strange sound...... How do you feel like you're floating down from mid-air......"
Yan Niang stroked her chin, thought for a while, and said slowly, "Claws, can you fly?" Could it be that the monster is a bird? ”
Cheng Muyou looked at her, "Miss Yan, have you already guessed what that thing is?" ”
Before Yan Niang could answer, Luo Yi suddenly sat on the ground with a frightened face, and muttered, "Bird...... That's right, it's a bird, it must be a bird, people say that if a person dies unjustly, the soul will turn into a bird, my lord, what day do you think it is? The souls in the canal must have come out, they are looking for a substitute, whoever is unlucky will be entangled by them......" Speaking of this, he suddenly threw himself on the side of the bed and grabbed the white arm, "Poor my lady, she is pregnant for ten months, and she is about to give birth, but the child in the womb has become a stand-in for these souls, two lives, say no, it's gone, they are both gone, how can I live if I am left." ”
Seeing this, Cheng Muyou hurriedly ordered Boss Luo to help him to rest in another room, Pei'er also got up and prepared to follow him, but was stopped by Yan Niang, until the two walked away, she asked her in a solemn voice, "Pei'er, since your sister-in-law has a body, has there been anything different from ordinary people?" ”
Pei'er was stunned by his question, "Girl, what do you mean by this?" My sister-in-law and brother are harmonious and loving, and they have children not long after marriage, and I am watching her belly grow day by day. Moreover, since she had a body, she has always been in good health, her appetite is also very good, and even the joy is very little, and the neighbors say that the fetus in her womb must be a considerate mother's child, and she can't bear to let her mother suffer......"
Yan Niang interrupted her, "Think about it again, she has been smooth and smooth in the past ten months, and there is nothing abnormal about it?" ”
Pei'er thought for a while, then suddenly rolled her eyes twice, and said softly, "It's not completely nothing, but this incident happened last night......
Yan Niang took a step closer to her, her tone becoming more and more stiff, "What happened last night?" ”
"After my sister-in-law became pregnant, she was extremely afraid of heat, especially in the past few months, her belly has become bigger and bigger, and she feels hot and uneasy every day. It was hot yesterday, and it didn't cool down completely at night, so my sister-in-law couldn't stay in the house, so I had to sleep in the yard, so we followed her, just saying that my brother would accompany her. But in the middle of the night, I suddenly heard the sound of my brother and sister-in-law arguing, because my sister-in-law was a month old, I was worried that something would happen, so I hurriedly dressed and came to the courtyard. When I arrived in the courtyard, I saw my sister-in-law laughing, and said that my brother was too careful, how could he be a father to an unborn child. I inquired about it, only to find out that my sister-in-law had woken up from her sleep just now, but after waking up, her stomach no longer hurt. The sister-in-law felt fine, but the brother was not at ease, so he had to find the doctor to take a look, but in the end, seeing that she was really safe and sound, the brother also obeyed her. ”
After finishing speaking, Pei'er looked at Yan Niang, "Girl, there is only one thing in total, but when I heard my father say that my mother was pregnant with me, I always kicked her stomach and kicked her very painfully, so I wanted to ...... It's not a big deal. ”
***
Out of the courtyard of the Luo family, the three of them walked silently all the way in the direction of Xin'an Mansion, the moonlight pulled their shadows long, and it looked a little weird and scary.
After walking for about a cup of tea, Cheng Muyou finally couldn't figure out the cause and effect of the whole thing, so he whispered to Yan Niang, "Girl, in your opinion, what is the monster in the belly of the lady of the Luo family?" ”
Yan Niang looked at him fixedly, "I'm afraid Luo Yi didn't guess wrong, maybe it's really a bird." ”
"Birds?"
Yan Niang nodded slightly, "The ancients always said that those who died or died unjustly will have their unjust souls incarnated into birds. According to legend, Han Ping, the widow of King Song Kang during the Warring States Period, married a beautiful lady He, but was favored by King Song Kang and took it for himself. Han Ping was also sent to build the Great Wall, and later committed suicide. When Han's wife heard the news, she fell into a deep stream from a high place and left a suicide note, asking the king to show mercy and bury the husband and wife together. However, King Song Kang was narrow-minded, saw He's suicide note, and was furious, and deliberately buried the two separately, so that the two mounds looked at each other. But overnight, a large catalpa tree was born at the end of the two mounds, and gradually grew to one place, the roots of the tree were connected, and the branches and leaves were closed. There are also male and female mandarin ducks perched on the trees, not going in the morning and evening, and singing sadly. The Song people mourned, because they called its wood a acacia tree, and its birds were Han Ping's birds. ”
"It's just a legend, and the girl believes it?"
Yan Niang smiled coldly, "But the legend about the unjust soul turning into a bird is not limited to this one, 'Emperor Wang's spring heart trusts the cuckoo', this story, adults have also heard of it, right?" ”()
