The first story about the world that Yuan Zuo heard after his death was about the White Snake.The one who told her the story was an old stone in the mountain that had become a spirit.Old Shitou is getting old, and he is a little confused when he talks and does things.The first thing he told Yuan Zuo was the scene where the water filled Jinshan Temple, how cowardly Xu Xian was.
Yuan Zuo was just passing by at that time, and left after listening to a verse.She was anxious to see her reincarnated sister.
The two girls who were buried with others were buried with mercury. When they were alive, mercury was poured into their palms. Before they died, they suddenly envied the rooster in the village whose neck was wiped with a knife.It is said that a rooster without a neck can still walk for a while, but when they bounce up, they can only touch the thick coffin boards.Keeping their flesh alive under the dirt will only give them the illusion that they are still alive.As for being alive, all they have left is the great fear of being forcibly taken away from their parents.
So they were afraid of the world, and the two souls cuddled together in the dark and made a promise.
If my sister can live past the age of three safely, then I will also rush to this world.
My elder sister lived through three years, four years old, and finally grew up, but Yuan Zuo did not keep the appointment.Remembering the memory of the previous life, remembering the promise, I will write to her every year, write about the eaves with bells in the city, and write about the lanterns during the New Year. The world under my pen seems to be full of brilliance.However, Yuan Zuo only believed half of the words.
Yuan Zuo repeatedly delayed the day of reincarnation, and finally attracted people from the underworld.So she hid in the body of the snake and became a snake demon.
Finally, when her sister was about to celebrate her 19th birthday, Yuan Zuo received a letter from her sister.In the letter, she said that she was about to get married and hoped to get her sister's blessing.
Yuan Zuo immediately went straight to his sister happily carrying a dressing box.
But she did not go into her sister's room.
Because when I was outside the house, my heart twitched suddenly.She was vaguely aware of scenes in the room that she did not want to see.
Yuan Zuo still felt strange after a long time.Obviously my sister lived in the world with scars all over her body, and obviously that marriage was a pit of fire for her, why would she happily write those things to her, saying how happy it is to be alive.
Sometimes Yuan Zuo would even think that his sister was trying to trick him into coming to the world, so that he would also suffer.But she didn't believe this, because her sister was the one who loved her the most in the world.
In modern times, she has been able to live in human form for a long time.She still hadn't figured out about her sister, and then she met a baby, a baby who had just died on the road.
The passing villagers glanced at the baby girl as if they were garbage, but no one paid any attention to it.Yuan Zuo looked at the sky, knowing that at night, evil spirits, wild dogs, and even wolves would come over.
Since it is a corpse, so what if it is eaten, it won't hurt anyway.
But Yuan Zuo suddenly couldn't bear it anymore.
She pulled the soul that hadn't gone far back into her body, then picked up the baby and walked from house to house.
She put the child at the door of those people's houses, hoping that someone would come out to take a look, and even if she didn't raise it, she would at least give the child a sip of milk.
However, no.No one would do that.
Sometimes one or two would come across who were willing, but they often ended up with Yuan Zuo escaping.When she heard the words Tong Bride-in-law, she immediately ran away.
woman.
What people will miss the most, and what will be insulted the most, is the uterus in the belly, the body that can bring pleasure to men.
Yuan Zuo knew this very well.
She started getting anxious and started walking further.The baby in her arms was extremely weak, and she didn't know how long the baby would last.
In February, there is still a taste of the year in the village.The red couplets are still there, and the children occasionally set off a few firecrackers.She walked through one village after another with the child in her arms, and she couldn't walk leisurely, she wanted to run for her life.The child's soul will leave the body at any time, and there are both evil spirits and wild dogs and wolves staring at her waiting for the corpse to eat.
Eventually she went to the city.In the 90s, there were also many baby girls in cities, but probably better than in rural areas.Relying on her limited common sense, she put the child at the door of the building called the hospital.
The child was eventually adopted.
One day when Yuan Zuo went to visit her, he saw a baby on the ground in the corridor.This baby girl is also an abandoned baby. Someone threw the baby here, hoping that others would come out and adopt her after hearing the cries.Yuan Zuo heard that the girl's parents pinned their hopes on a very kind woman in the building, but that woman had already adopted two and couldn't afford any more.
The child cried all night and was ignored.
So the baby girl was quietly carried away again.
Yuan Zuo felt a deep sense of powerlessness.She remembered a poem she had seen a long time ago.
"Born from a bitter life is a daughter, it's hard to be humble again."
Two years later, she learned that the name of the girl she sent was now Xincao.Quite by chance, one day, when she went to a temple in that city, there happened to be doing some Buddhist rituals there.A believer brought a child and was playing with the child there.
She heard the man call the child's name: "Xincao."
So Yuan Zuo stepped forward and said to the believer who was too busy to die, let me help look after the child.The other party saw that she had a kind face and a big heart, so he handed the child to her.
Yuan Zuo tied a Jade Buddha with a red string and tied it around the child's neck.
Suddenly, she wished desperately that the child would live, that she would be healthy and safe.She was confused, and didn't understand how she became like her sister, who knew that the world was dangerous, but hoped that another person would live.
After a while, another woman who was so anxious that tears came out ran over and snatched the child.It turned out that this was Xincao's mother.Embarrassed and guilty, the believer grabbed the offerings to the Buddha and said that eating them would be good for his children.
Yuan Zuo stepped aside and looked at them silently.
In fact, since then, they can no longer have any intersection, and she can go to a distant place to live her own life.
But things took a dire turn.
When she passed the village where Xin Cao was born, she learned that Xin Cao's biological father was blind in one eye.
This is the first message.
The second news is that the family abandoned another baby girl 18 years ago, and they threw it out after being pricked with a needle. They hoped that this would scare away the female ghost who would come to reincarnate in the future.
It's really a way to provoke hatred.
Yuan Zuo decided to find the child.Before leaving, she passed by the mountain where the old stone was. The old stone was still telling stories, and it was about Xu Xian, but this time it was about meeting in the West Lake.
Old Shitou talked a lot this time, so he suddenly asked her: "Who are you looking for? The child who is destined for you? In my opinion, this time, it is better not to go."
"I... went to my sister."
So the old stone didn't stop her anymore.
It thinks that what is destined cannot be stopped.For example, the white lady is destined to meet Xu Xian.
For example, Yuan Zuo was destined to meet a resurrected undead who gradually became sloppy.
