Original text of "A Chinese Ghost Story" (classical Chinese)

Ning Caichen, a native of Zhejiang, is generous and self-respecting.

Each pair said: "There is no difference in life." "It is suitable to go to Jinhua, to Beiguo, and undress Lanruo. The temple nave tower is magnificent, but there is no one in the basil, and it seems to be a no-brainer. The east and west monks' houses, the double doors are covered, but the south is a small house, and the key is as new. Look at the east corner of the palace again, repair the bamboo arch, there is a huge pond under the steps, and the wild lotus root has been flowered. I am very happy about it. Will learn to make the case coming, the city house is expensive, the thought will stay, and then take a walk to wait for the monk to return.

At dusk, scholars came to Qinan, and they would rather be courteous and tell their intentions. The scholar said: "There is no owner here, and the servants also live abroad." Can be willing to fall, but the twilight Huijiao, fortunately!" Ning Xi, by the use of the grass to replace the bed, the support board to make a few, for the long-term customer. It is the night moon bright and clean, the light is like water, the two of them are in the corridor of the temple, and each shows his surname.

The scholar said that his surname is Yan, and the word is Chixia. Rather than suspect that he is a test-taker, and listen to his voice, it is not like Zhejiang. Zhizhi said to himself: "Qin people." "The language is very simple. Since the relative words are exhausted, they will leave and go to bed.

It is better to have a new home than to sleep for a long time. Smell the north of the house, if there is a home. Under the stone window of the undulating north wall, you can see a small courtyard outside the short wall, there are more than 40 women;

The woman said, "Why hasn't Xiaoqian come for a long time?" The woman said, "Will there be no complaints to grandma?" and said: "I don't hear it, but it seems to be frowning." The woman said, "It is not good for a servant to get acquainted." Before I could say anything, there was a seventeen or eighteen woman coming, as if she was gorgeous. She smiled and said: "I don't say anything behind my back, the two of me are talking, the little demon maid comes quietly without a trace, fortunately there are no shortcomings." ”

He also said: "The little lady is the person in the painting, and the old man is a man, and he was also taken away." The woman said, "Grandma is not famous, who is more good?" The woman didn't know what to say. I'd rather be a neighbor than listen to it. After a while, there was silence.

Fang will go to sleep, feel that someone has come to the dormitory, and he is anxious to take care of it, and the woman in the north courtyard is also. Surprised.

The woman smiled and said: "The moonlit night is sleepless, I wish Xiuyan is good." Ning Zhengrong said: "I am afraid of people's words." A slight misstep will be a shameful mourning. Nuyun: "The ignorant of the night." "Rather aggressive. The female patrol has words.

Ning Qi: "Go quickly! Otherwise, Hu Nanshe will know." "The woman is afraid, but she retreats, and returns to the outside, and puts a gold ingot on the mattress. Ning threw the court and said: "Unrighteous things, defile me!" The woman was ashamed and picked up gold and said to herself: "This man should be iron and stone." ”

Lan Xisheng came with a servant to wait for the test, lived in the east chamber, and died violently at night. There are small holes in the heart of the feet, such as a cone thorn, and there is blood coming out of it, and there is no reason for it. Towards the evening, Yan was born, Ning Zhizhi, and Yan thought it was charming. Ning Su resisted straight, quite unconcerned.

At night, the woman returned, and Ning said: "There are many concubines, and there are no ones who are as rigid as a monarch." Juncheng sage, concubines dare not deceive, Xiaoqian, surnamed Nie, eighteen years of death, buried on the side of the temple, threatened by monsters, served as a lowly officer, shy to others, it is really not fun. There is no one to kill in the temple today, and I am afraid that I should come with a yaksha. "Rather than be frightened. The woman said: "You can be exempted from sharing a room with Yan Sheng." ”

Asked: "Why don't you confuse Yan Sheng?" said: "The Piqi people don't dare to approach." He also asked, "What is charming?" and said, "The one who deceives me will pierce his feet with an awl, and he will be confused, because he will take blood for the demon to drink; Both, where to cast a good ear. ”

Rather thanks, ask about the period of vigilance, and answer tomorrow night.

parting wept and said: "The concubine fell into the Xuanhai Sea, and she couldn't ask for the shore." Lang Jun's righteousness is dry, and he will be able to pull out his life and save suffering. If you are willing to take a concubine and rot her bones, she will be buried in a house, which is tantamount to rebuilding. Ning resolutely agreed. Because he asked about the burial place, he said: "But remember that above the poplar, there is a black nest." "The words have gone out, and they have been extinguished.

Tomorrow, he will be invited early. After the morning, there is wine and food, pay attention to Chayan. Staying together, resigning to sexual fetishes. Rather than listen, forced to bring bedding, Yan had no choice but to move the bed, and said: "The servant is content with her husband, and admires it." It is necessary to have a slight heart, and it is difficult to white. Fortunately, don't look at the burden, it is not good for both. ”

Rather be taught. Even if they slept in each room, the swallow placed the box on the window, and when the pillow moved, it roared like thunder. Rather not sleep. Recently, there was a faint figure outside the window. Russia peeked closer to the window, his eyes flashing. Ning is afraid, Fang wants to call the swallow, suddenly something cracks out, Yao Ruo practice, touches the stone lattice on the window, and shoots suddenly, that is, it is swept in, like electricity extinguished.

Yan Jue got up, and would rather sleep in order to look at it. The swallow holds the Zheng Zheng, takes a thing, sniffs the moon, the white light is crystal clear, the length can be two inches, and the diameter of the leek leaf is Xu. It has been heavily encapsulated, and it is still in the broken box. He said to himself: "What is the old charm, the boldness of Zhi'er, and the bad of the basket." Then he went back to bed. Ning Daqi asked because of what he saw, and told him what he saw.

Yan said: "Since you know each other and love each other, how dare you hide it." I, the swordsman, too. If it weren't for the stone lattice, the demon should be killed immediately; Asked, "What is it?" and said, "The sword." There is a demonic smell in the right smell. "I'd rather look at it. Showing each other, Yingying is also a small sword. So the benefit is thick and heavy.

Tomorrow, there will be blood stains outside the window. Then out of the north of the temple, see the desolate graves, there are poplars, black nests upside down. Camp and plan, fun and want to return. Yan Sheng set up an ancestral tent, and he was affectionate, and gave Ning a broken leather bag, saying: "This sword bag is also." Treasures can be far away. ”

I'd rather be from it. He said: "If you are faithful and upright, you can do this, but you are still rich and noble, not in this way." "Ning Nai has a sister buried here, excavates the female bones, collects clothes, and rents a boat to return. Ning Zhai is in the wilderness, because the camp is buried outside the tomb. Sacrifice and wish: "Pity the lonely soul, bury near the snail dwelling, sing and cry and hear each other, and you don't see Ling Yu male ghost." A pot of syrup water to drink, but the purpose is not clear. Fortunately, I am not suspicious. After returning after wishing over, someone shouted: "Wait for your peers." Looking back, Xiao Qian is also.

Huanxi Xie said: "Jun Xinyi, ten deaths are not enough to repay." Please return, meet your aunt, and have no regrets. "Judging the truth, the skin reflects the glow, the feet are thin, the daytime is upright, and the beauty is especially beautiful. Then they all went to fasting. Ask to sit and wait for less, and enter the white mother first. The mother was stunned. Shi Ning's wife has been ill for a long time, and her mother is afraid of being frightened. At the second time, the woman had already jumped in and bowed to the ground.

Ning said: "This Xiaoqian is also." The mother was shocked. The female mother said: "The son is floating alone, far away from his parents and brothers." Meng Gongzi was exposed, Ze was skinned, and he was willing to hold a broom to repay high righteousness. Seeing that her mother was so cute, she dared to say it, saying: "The little lady patronizes my child, and the old body is overjoyed." But his life stopped here, and he didn't dare to make ghost puppets with his inheritance. ”

The woman said: "The child really has no two hearts. The people under the spring do not see the old mother, please take the brother's affairs, according to the high hall, and serve the morning and dusk, how about it?" That is, if you want to worship your sister-in-law, your mother will stop because of her illness. The woman is in the kitchen, and the corpse of the mother is fed. Entering the room and wearing a couch, like a familiar resident.

At dusk, the mother was afraid of it, and resigned to bed, not to set up a mattress. The woman knew her mother's intentions, that is, she went. I want to fast, but I retreat, wandering outdoors, as if I am afraid, and I am crying out. The woman said: "There is a sword spirit in the room. Those who do not see on the way to the road are good for this reason. ”

Ning Wu is a leather bag, and he is suspended. The woman entered, and sat down under the candle. Shifting time, not a word. After a long time, he asked: "Do you read it at night?" The concubine rarely recites the "Lengyan Sutra", and now he is half forgotten. Ask for a volume, and at night, my brother will be right. ”

UNNC. Sit again, silently, and go to the end of the second watch, without saying a word. Rather urge it. Suddenly, he said: "Lonely souls in foreign lands, very cowardly and desolate tombs." Ning said: "There is no bed to sleep in the fast, and brothers and sisters should also be far away." "The woman is up, frowning and crying, full of stubbornness and lazy walking, calmly going out, wading into the steps and not. Rather steal pity, want to stay overnight, and fear of mother's anger.

The female Chaodan is the mother, holding the Wo Pot, and the next hall operation, all of which inherit the mother's aspirations. Retired at dusk, after fasting, chanted the scriptures with candles, and Jue Ning went to bed, and began to come out miserably.

First of all, his wife was sick and his mother was unbearable; Day by day, dear as oneself, forget that it is a ghost, can't bear to go at night, stay with the same bed. The woman has never tasted food for the first time, and gradually sipps thin food for half a year. Mother and son are doting on them, talking about their ghosts, and people don't know how to distinguish them.

No, rather his wife died. The mother has the intention of accepting a daughter, but she is afraid that it will be disadvantageous to the child. The woman peeked at it, and told her mother: "If you live for more than a year, you should know your child's liver diaphragm." In order not to cause trouble to pedestrians, he came from Lang Jun. There is no other intention, stop at the son's bright and upright, admired by heaven and man, and really want to praise it for three years, borrow Bo Feng, and use the light spring soil. "The mother also knows that there is no evil, but she is afraid that she will not be able to extend the heir.

The woman said: "Children are only given by God." Lang Jun is blessed with three sons, and he does not take away the ghost wife. "The mother believes in it, and discusses it with the son. Ning Xi, because of the feast to the party. Or please look at the bride, the woman is full of makeup, and she is happy, but she does not suspect her ghost and is suspected of being a fairy. It is the relatives of the five parties who congratulate and worship him. The woman is good at painting Lanmei, and she is rewarded with a size, and the winner is proud of the hidden attack.

One day, in front of the window, I was stunned. Suddenly, he asked: "Where is the leather bag?" and said: "Yi Qing is afraid of it, so he keeps it shut to him." He said: "The concubine has been angry for a long time, and she should not be afraid, and it is advisable to hang it on the head of the bed." Ning pondered his intentions and said: "In the past three days, my heart has not stopped, and I am afraid that Jinhua monsters will hate concubines and flee away, and I am afraid that I will find them at night." ”

Ning Guo came with a leather bag. The woman examined it repeatedly and said, "This sword immortal will also hold the head of the person." So far, we have been defeated. I don't know how much to kill. The concubine sees it today, and her muscles are still chestnut. "It's hanging. The next day, he was ordered to move to the hanging household. Sitting on the candle at night, there is a thing, like a bird. The woman is frightened and hides in the intersperse. Ning looked at it, the thing was like a yaksha, the electric eyes and bloody tongue, the eyes flashed and grabbed forward, to the door to retreat, patrolling for a long time, gradually approaching the leather sac, picking it with its claws, as if it would be scratched.

The sac suddenly sounded, and it could be closed, and in a trance, there were ghosts protruding from half of the body, and the yaksha entered, and the sound was silent, and the sac also shrank as before. Ning was surprised. The woman also came out, and said with great joy: "It's okay." "Looking at the bag, the clear water is just a few buckets. A few years later, Ning Guo Dengjinshi. Female lifts one male. After taking a concubine, each gave birth to a boy, and all of them were in good spirits.
