Chapter 20: The Infant Spirit
"Grandma, let's go out and see, no one steals our chickens! I felt like the chickens were just some of the chickens fluttering on their own. â
The grandmother couldn't believe it, "Xuanzi don't talk nonsense, no one, how can the chicken ......"
"Grandma, let's go out and have a look!" My grandmother wanted to pull me, but I had already slipped away, got out of bed, turned on the light, and now even if there was a thief, it was too late, so my grandmother had to agree to take me to see it.
We turned on the lights in the backyard, and I had never seen the scene in the backyard, and I thought my grandmother had never seen it before. I saw dozens of chickens in the net, all of them rushed out vigorously, some places in the net have been broken, some chickens have been laid out, but these chickens are usually very smart, where the hole will be collectively drilled, but now I see these chickens are completely unconscious, although they have broken several holes, but the chickens that are fluttering in other places are still hitting the net, and the violent impact makes them have blood and flesh blurred, and the net is also bloodstained.
A chicken broke a hole again and ran away, I followed, it ran to the courtyard wall and began to fly up again, hit the wall, and still fly up desperately, until it finally flew over the courtyard wall, where is it going? Or rather, where are they going collectively? I was stunned, how could there be such an evil thing?
I ran to my grandmother, and my grandmother said, "Xuanzi, something is very strange, are these chickens abnormal during the day today?" â
I shook my head and said, "I've fed them too!" They are in good spirits! "Although they are ...... now The spirit is also very good......
The grandmother picked up a chicken feather with the skin attached, "That's weird, Xuanzi, which way is the chicken running?" â
"I don't know, I only saw it fly over the northern wall, I don't know where it went, they have a direction, over the northern wall, it must go north, it's the end of the village."
"Xuanzi, you go to the house to sleep, and the grandmother will follow you to take a look." I'm very scared in my heart, I always feel that things are weird, I saw a baby girl ghost, and this kind of thing happened when I woke up, is it related?
"Grandma, this kind of thing happened in the middle of the night, don't follow it, and look for it tomorrow at dawn. We'll catch the rest of the chickens one by one and tie them up, and we'll go back tomorrow. â
The grandmother shook her head and said: "These chickens are evil, tied up will keep moving, until death, now I don't know what the reason is, can not prescribe the right medicine, the grandmother must follow the past to see, otherwise these chickens will be raised in vain, seeing that you are going to have a winter vacation, how can you do without chickens during the New Year?" Your parents don't have anything good to bring back when they come. "It's all this time, and I'm still thinking about the younger generations, I feel another pain in my heart, how can I return this love? I decided to allow my grandmother to go, on the condition that I would go too. My grandmother was here, and there were very few times when I could resist me, and finally I went with my grandmother.
Before leaving the house, I looked at the clock, and it was half past one in the morning. How terrifying it was outside at this time, I didn't dare to think that the grandmother broke a big branch from the peach tree and dragged it all the way. There was a commotion on the road, and in the silence of the night, I was horrified to hear it, and I just tugged at my grandmother's hand, and we brought two flashlights. I secretly stick out my tongue in the dark, the searcher has no creature of the existence zĂ i, in the black and white world, I searcher highlights. In addition to the highlights of the people sleeping in the house when passing by, the light of the birds that have not yet flown south in the trees, the stars in the soil, and the fall of chicken feathers along the way, it should be possible to find chickens if you follow the chicken feathers.
As we walked, we got closer and closer to the end of the village, when suddenly a chicken hurried towards us, and then passed us and ran to the front. My grandmother and I hurried over, and the more we walked, the closer we felt to the place where we had roasted the potato this afternoon. When I got to the place, I stopped, it turned out to be really that hollow, more than a dozen chickens gathered in the hollow, some were not our family's, it turned out that it was not just our chickens in the evil, my back was cold, I couldn't believe the scene in front of me, in the dark night, many chickens were frantically pecking at a hollow, constantly gurgling, what was there? Do we have anything left over from this afternoon? My grandmother asked me to stay aside and go over with a flashlight to take a look, and I had a bad premonition in my heart, is there any connection between this incident and the events of the afternoon? My palms were already drenched in sweat.
After the grandmother passed, I took another flashlight to shine on her, she stood in the flock of chickens and looked at it, and suddenly her face changed greatly, she raised her feet and came back, and pulled me away, I didn't figure out the situation, it seemed to be very strict, what taboo did we do in the afternoon?
We've roasted potatoes like this before, and nothing happened to me, so I looked back as I walked, "What about the milk, the chickens?" We're not trying to figure it out! The grandmother pinched my arm and motioned for me not to speak. My heart is hairy, what is there in that place? So scary?
When I got home, the sweat on my palms was still rising, but I didn't know what we had offended. Closing the door, I hurriedly got into bed and got into the quilt, "Grandma, come up, don't turn off the lights, tell me what's wrong." "When I was a child, I liked to listen to ghost stories, and every time I loved and feared it, I would go under the quilt and listen to it, and now it's the middle of the night, and I feel safer in the quilt.
The family milk got into the quilt, "Xuanzi, someone in our village may have committed a crime." â
When I heard this, I panicked, how can we bake potatoes and not sin it, "Grandma, don't scare me." â
"We'll go call the police early tomorrow morning."
"What matters?"
"Xuanzi, what's the most important thing in this world?"
I thought about it, "It's a loved one, it's life." â
The grandmother said, "That's right, people who have ruined their lives can't let go no matter what." â
What are you talking about? I didn't understand, but my grandmother touched my head and said, "My grandmother will tell you for a while, don't be afraid, there are everyone in this world." â
The more I listened, the more confused I became, "Grandma, tell me quickly, what did you see?" Why don't you even care about the chickens? "We said we were going to find out the truth, but now we're running away.
"My grandmother saw the cruelest scene in the world." "The grandmother saw where the chicken pecked open, revealing a plastic bag containing the baby's corpse, which would have rotted if the temperature hadn't been low. "My back is extremely cold, I'm not dreaming, the baby ghost really came to me, so...... The one I found with my shovel during the day was the plastic bag with the baby's corpse in it! We...... We also grilled the yam on it! That smell must be coming from the ground, yes! Did our chickens eat the potatoes roasted there before they got into the evil spirit?
"Grandma, woe to me! I took them there this afternoon to roast the yams, but because the taste and color had become very strange, we thought they were bad and brought them back, and I, I also broke them up and gave them to the chickens. â
My grandmother slapped me in the leg, "You! But this may be a bad fate, otherwise there would be no such thing. But there are other people's chickens there......"
I whispered, "That's why I asked them to bring some home too......"
The grandmother slapped me in the leg again, "Our chickens are fine, if something happens to their chickens, we will have to pay for them." â
"Grandma, I, I was pressed when I was sleeping, maybe it was the baby corpse you saw, it was a baby girl, she was crying all the time, I didn't figure out if it was a dream or something else, it happened to happen again and I didn't say it, now I think about it, I should have gone there during the day and provoked it." The grandmother was no longer able to beat me, and at night, as soon as I closed my eyes, it was the baby girl who was bleeding and crying, she looked very helpless, and I was glad that the grandmother didn't let me go with me, otherwise I would have seen more corpses of the baby girl when I closed my eyes now.
The next day there was a sensation in the town, we all knew that the children of several families in our village were crushed by ghosts, and the chickens in the middle of the night were crazy, and finally found a lot of dead chickens in a wasteland behind the village, and the body of a baby girl was found in the middle of the corpse of the chicken, and the police took the body of the baby girl away for investigation. This is the version that circulated, in fact, the next day the police came, and the body of the baby girl was brought back, and the corpses of many chickens were also brought back, and I was also brought back with my grandmother and a few children for questioning. The final investigation result is that the surname Shen of a family in our neighboring village, because the three children were all girls, they were either given away or thrown away, and the fourth was still a girl, how did the husband look at it, he scolded his wife's stomach all day long, and the wife hated the child more and more, so she and her husband covered the baby girl with a pillow and ran to the wasteland of our village to bury it, who knew that it was hit by a few of our bear children.
As a mother, in that era of insufficient food and clothing, there was no food and no milk and she had to go to the production team to pick up workers to feed a large family, and when she came back, she found that her daughter was starving to death, and there was nothing more painful than this. At that time, the patriarchal ideology in the countryside was too strict, including the fact that there are several sisters and a younger brother in the family, which is a typical patriarchal ideology. In this way, I'm a normal girl who is lucky not to be disliked by my father, and then I add a younger brother who doesn't want me. For patriarchy, I can't comment on this, the water is too deep. But don't want your own flesh and blood or even brutal killing, I really can't understand!
If you don't have a sense of responsibility, don't be born! Give them life and cruelly deprived of it, how is this done? If there is reincarnation, a soul is finally reincarnated, but it does not live long and has to go to reincarnation, it is said that children are the debt or blessing of their parents, and most of them are here to ask for debts, and if they do not pay it back in this life, the resentment will accumulate more and more, and it will become worse in the future. What I mentioned earlier refers to those who are born and die, and now it is more common to have to go to reincarnation before they are born. The phenomenon of abortion is very strict, my uncle once diagnosed a woman, this woman was infertile, came to my uncle for a prescription, and my uncle diagnosed that she had had three fetals, and the infertility was purely self-inflicted.
A woman's uterus is like a hotbed, the uterine wall is soil, and a fetus will not only damage yin morality, but also harm her body, the most obvious is that the uterine wall is thin, how to conceive without soil? If you have too many tires, you won't be able to give birth to a small life. The grandmother said that there was a woman who had a lot of tires, and in the end it was easy to slip the tire, and the child fell off when she moved, but she couldn't help it, so she lay on the bed to protect the fetus, and accidentally moved and slipped again. Therefore, women should not only think about their children, but also for their own bodies, whether they are born or not, they must consider the little life, and if they are not ready, they should not give them life casually, since they are given life, they are not forced to do so, they have no right to deprive it, life is precious!
The couple's child died as a baby, and she didn't know how to hurt people, but she didn't know why she woke up in the cold soil, no father, no mother, only cold, and she didn't meet anyone for several days. Babies are killed, corpses are abandoned in the wilderness, and they are not exceeded, and after a long time, even if they don't have much consciousness, they are likely to become evil ghosts.
I don't know if they will grow up, in my previous consciousness, the ghost died and stopped at that moment, but now I am entangled in whether they really grow up? One example is my dead aunt, who died without talking, walking, sleeping in her cradle. But over the years, she has not only grown up, but also her own consciousness. I heard such a thing, there is a couple of daughters are four years old, they are very strange is that the four-year-old baby often talks to the air, and laughs very happily, the couple think this thing is weird, so they went to ask someone to see, it turns out that the daughter is very healthy, she is just playing with her brother, this thing is impossible, I only know that they have had a fetus once, I didn't expect that the fetus turned out to be a boy, that is, playing with my daughter, if there is a intention to harm people, it must be very terrible. But I've heard that some babies don't grow up, no one can tell whether it's true or not, whether they can grow up or not, it's all the sins of the big man, there must be a beginning and an end, there is really no way, please give them a super life.
