According to legend, in the Qing Dynasty Shunzhi Jiangning Prefecture Shangyuan County , a few strange things happened, what strange things? Even if the face of the daughter's boudoir can show up on the wall, she will look more and more like this girl. This girl will feel chest tightness and fatigue, heart cramps, and finally die suddenly.
If something like this happened to one family, it would be a novelty. Even the girls from three or four families died because of such strange things, and the locals couldn't help but panic.
At that time, a wealthy family named Jin in the county had two sons and only one daughter named Jin Yan, who had not yet been out of the cabinet. Slowly, a face appeared on the wall of Jin Yan’s boudoir. At first it was just a round bulge. Then, the eyes, nose, mouth, and finally ears were all protruding. It looked like a small portrait of Jin Yan. Three-dimensional image.
Jin Yan's face was earthy in fright, so she moved to live with her mother early. The brothers even asked craftsmen to dig out the wall and remodel it, but within two days a face appeared on the other wall. . Seeing such a weird thing happened in his home, Father Jin asked the local monk and Taoist priest to do seven days and seven nights, but it was still useless. Jin Yan's health was getting worse and worse, he was flustered at every turn, and eventually even became bedridden.
Jin Yan has a second uncle who works as a Taoist priest in a neighboring county. Mrs. Jin heard him say that there was a very powerful man there, so she quickly sent someone to invite him. Gao Ren's surname is Yun and his name is Jiuyou. Everyone calls him Yun Lao Dao. When the second uncle Jin Yan learned about his niece, he really invited Yun Lao Dao to move.
Yun Lao Dao followed everyone to Shangyuan County, and looked around in a highland outside the county seat. Seeing the dark atmosphere surrounding a small pavilion in the northeast, I took the lead to walk there. When everyone arrived there, they saw a towering willow tree growing on the side of the pavilion.Numerous branches and leaves are placed on the pavilion, and the pavilion is more than ten meters ahead. It is a rippling lake with blue waves. The breeze blows from time to time, and the scenery is truly beautiful.
Yun Lao Dao stared at the big willow tree and saw that there were many big bumps protruding from the trunk of the tree. There is a chest and waist, and it is sunken in the position of the belly button, but the place where the face should be is smooth bark without protrusions, so ordinary people don't care at all.
But Yun Lao Dao's eyesight is so exquisite, he immediately set up the formation around the willow tree, a few curses, only saw a translucent girl's shadow appear in the formation, if looming, not careful Seeing that it was a mass of white gas.
Yun Laodao then closed his eyes and meditated. Five minutes later, he stood up and opened a small white porcelain bottle. The white air like a girl suddenly plunged into the bottle. Yun Lao Dao immediately ordered everyone to bring a new bladed axe, stained with fresh rooster blood, and then let the servant hold the axe to chop the tree.
When the servant cut five or six times, he saw a lot of red liquid from the wound of the big willow tree. Yun Lao Dao ordered the servant to cut a circle around the tree along the wound. , Until the red liquid flowed almost, Yun Lao Dao led everyone to Jin Yan's house.
When they arrived at the Jin family, everyone saw that the face on the wall of Jin Yan’s boudoir had become withered and hideous. Old Tao Yun took out a Taoist talisman from his arms, asked someone to cover it, and told the Jin family to do it. "You can't live in this house anymore, but you can invite a portrait of the Taoist ancestor of the Sanqing Dynasty to hang on the wall and worship every day." After speaking, the old Yun turned and left, and everyone was not aware of it.
later,Everyone still knows from the mouth of Jinyan's second uncle that the place where Willow Tree Spirit is located is a place where young men and women love to meet in private meetings, and Jinyan also dated her sweetheart there. As the years go by, the willow spirit moves the heart and attaches to these girls, but its power is limited, and it can only be attached to the wall like a willow tree lump, absorbing the young girl’s spirit every day, and waiting for its wood. When the heart is filled with essence, it can nourish the body to change into a person. Yun Lao Dao closed her eyes and meditated that day, just to communicate with Liu Shujing, to persuade her to practice seriously and not to go wrong. Then Liu Shujing agreed to follow Yun Lao Dao.
After hearing the second uncle talked about this, Jin Yan silently regretted her behavior. From then on, she closed her door and devoted herself to kindness. Later, she married a son of the right family, the son and grandson.
Editor's Note: If something goes wrong, there must be monsters. The reason why monsters make trouble in the world is just to be a human, which shows that the human body is rare. We ordinary people think that we are nothing but a terrible mistake. In fact, the human body is the most noble thing in the world. We must cherish the human body and behave properly, because if we lose our lives, we are miserable!
