During the reign of Zhenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty , there was a girl named Wu Meiqiong in Kaifeng Mansion. She lost her parents when she was ten years old and could only rely on the help of her neighbors. Therefore, Wu Meiqiong grew up eating hundreds of meals. Wu Meiqiong remembers the kindness of her folks. When she grew up, she often helped the folks do whatever she could. People said she was a good child who repaid her kindness.

When Wu Meiqiong was seventeen, she was as tall and graceful as a flower. When the neighbors saw that Wu Meiqiong was of marriageable age, they started to help her find a husband. Wu Meiqiong seemed to know that the neighbors were planning to marry her, so she got a new goose-yellow dress from somewhere. The dress was embroidered with beautiful patterns, the stitching was fine, and it was made of fine fabrics. Wu Meiqiong's body looks even more picturesque, and her skin is fair and beautiful.

When the neighbors saw Wu Meiqiong wearing that goose yellow dress, they became even more stunning. They all praised Wu Meiqiong for looking good in this dress. But they also understood that Wu Meiqiong’s family was poor and it was impossible to buy such a beautiful dress, so they asked about this piece. The origin of clothes. However, no matter how they asked, Wu Meiqiong just smiled and said nothing, so there were rumors that the dress was stolen by Wu Meiqiong.

Before the neighbors could figure out the origin of the clothes, Wu Meiqiong had problems with her new clothes. She was beautiful. His appearance quickly became aging, and his black hair gradually turned gray. In just five or six days, Wu Meiqiong changed from a bright young girl to an old lady with wrinkles and gray hair, almost ten years older in a day.

When people saw Wu Meiqiong's changes, they thought she had a strange disease and hurriedly invited a doctor to diagnose and treat her. However, after the doctor checked Wu Meiqiong's pulse, he did not find the cause of her illness. The doctor also did not know why Wu Meiqiong aged ten years in one day. .

The doctor was an old man over fifty years old. When he was young, he traveled all over the world and had seen a lot of things. When he saw that Wu Meiqiong was strangely ill, he said to people: "I don't think this girl is sick. You'd better hire a Taoist priest." Come and take a look!"

After listening to the doctor's words, people realized that Wu Meiqiong suddenly looked like this, and it did not look like she was sick. They hurriedly invited a Taoist priest to check. Unexpectedly, after the Taoist priest saw Wu Meiqiong, he His expression immediately changed. He pointed at Wu Meiqiong's goose-yellow dress and asked, "Where did you get this dress?"

When Wu Meiqiong heard the Taoist priest's words, she suddenly realized that her aging might be related to this dress. He hurriedly told the origin of this piece of clothing. It turned out that seven days ago, Wu Meiqiong went to the mountain to collect firewood. Not long after she arrived on the mountain, it started to rain heavily. Wu Meiqiong hurriedly looked for a place to take shelter from the rain. She accidentally discovered a dilapidated mountain temple and went to the temple to take shelter from the rain.

After Wu Meiqiong entered the ruined temple, she found this piece of clothing inside. Seeing that the piece of clothing was brand new, and seeing that there was no one in the ruined temple, she thought that someone had forgotten this piece of clothing in the ruined temple, so she took it back. Home is worn on oneself. These are the clothes Wu Meiqiong picked up. It is not a good thing for her to keep the things she picked up. Therefore, when others ask about the origin of this piece of clothing, Wu Meiqiong is unwilling to say more.

After Wu Meiqiong explained the truth, she asked the Taoist priest a little uneasily: "Taoist priest, does it have anything to do with the clothes that make me look like this?"

The Taoist priest did not answer Wu Meiqiong's words, but frowned at the women beside him. People said: "Take off her clothes. If she keeps wearing these clothes, she will definitely die!"

After hearing the Taoist priest's words, people hurriedly went up to pull off Wu Meiqiong's clothes, but the clothes seemed to have grown on her body. It seemed like it was stuck on Wu Meiqiong's body, and it couldn't be removed no matter what.

"This is bad!" The Taoist priest sighed and told people that the dress Wu Meiqiong was wearing was not an ordinary dress, but a piece of cat skin.It was a cat demon with some moral integrity. It was unwilling to die in the thunder disaster, so its ghost lingered after its death, causing her cat skin to not rot for a long time.

The cat demon turned the cat skin into clothes and attracted Wu Meiqiong to wear them. He wanted to take the opportunity to suck the essence and blood from Wu Meiqiong's body, take away her life, and improve her own cultivation. When the cat demon's cultivation reached a certain level, it would The soul of the deceased can escape from the cat skin and find a new body to return to the sun. Wu Meiqiong wore this dress all day long, and the cat demon sucked too much of her essence and blood. The cat demon would take away ten years of her life in one day, so she would quickly age.

The Taoist priest said that if this continues, Wu Meiqiong will definitely be robbed of her life by the cat demon and die. If Wu Meiqiong wants to survive, she must take off her clothes and get rid of the cat demon's control of her. But this piece of clothing cannot be taken off at all, which shows that the cat demon does not want to leave. If you want to force the cat demon out of Wu Meiqiong, you must pay some price.

When Wu Meiqiong heard the Taoist priest explain the reason, she regretted picking up the dress. In order to survive, she said to the Taoist priest: "Taoist priest, as long as it allows me to live, I am willing to pay any price!"

The Taoist priest saw Wu Meiqiong. With a determined expression, she pointed at Wu Meiqiong and asked everyone: "Whose house has a hornet's nest? Let her poke the hornet's nest quickly. Cats are most afraid of bees. Maybe we can force the cat demon out in this way!"

The Taoist priest helped Wu Meiqiong find a hornet's nest. The family asked Wu Meiqiong to wrap her head with a cloth and then poke a hornet's nest. In the end, she forced out the cat demon in this way. When the bees were swirling around Wu Meiqiong, they saw that the clothes she was wearing suddenly turned into a ball of black smoke and wanted to fly away. The Taoist priest quickly pulled out his sword and slashed at the black smoke, finally killing the cat demon and helping Wu Meiqiong took back Yang Shou.

Although Wu Meiqiong was stung several times by bees, she finally saved her life. After this incident, she became very cautious and never dared to wear clothes of unknown origin again, so she never encountered them again. Something strange happened.
