During the Song Dynasty, there was a widow named Hangui in Jieqiao Village, Jeju. She was beautiful and had a slim figure. Unfortunately, she was poor in life and had no husband at a young age.
The rogue in the village saw that Hangui was weak and often came to tease her. After a long time, the village gradually had gossip. Hangui thought about it and finally decided to clean up the home and return to his parents' home to rely on his brothers.
On the evening of that day, Hangui rushed to the foot of a mountain. It suddenly rained heavily, but no one was seen within a few miles. Just when Hangui was anxious, an old man suddenly walked down from the mountain.
Hangui breathed a sigh of relief when he saw someone appearing and hurriedly asked the old man if there was a station nearby where he could stay.
The old man looked at Hangui a few times and said that he only lived in his family nearby. If Hangui didn't dislike him, he could stay at his house for one night.
Hangui was a little hesitant after hearing this, but seeing the rain getting heavier and heavier, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and decided to stay at the old man's house.
and Han Gui followed the old man to his house and it was completely dark. The old man had two brick and tile houses at his house, and there was a straw shed behind it. Hangui looked like a pigpen. Strangely, although this house is spacious, Hangui didn't hear anything, as if it was a living thing. The old man cleaned up the side room and asked Hangui to sleep in this room tonight.
Hangui traveled all day long, tired and hungry, but the old man didn't talk about eating, so she was embarrassed to ask, so she changed into wet clothes in the house and then lay on the bed, planning to sleep first.
In the middle of the night, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and thunder exploded in the sky. Hangui was awakened by the thunder and turned over. At this time, she suddenly felt as if she had encountered something hard.
Half asleep and half awake, Hangui subconsciously reached out and touched the thing, and found that it was not only hard, but also a layer of sticky liquid on it, and a bloody smell was lingering on the tip of her nose. Just as a flash of lightning flashed past, illuminating the room for a moment. Hangui was so scared that he saw what was in his hand.
That was a bitched finger bone. It looked very fresh, covered with red blood, and some shredded meat that had not been gnawed.
Hangui was so scared that she lost her sleepiness. She didn't dare to continue staying in this room. At this time, she suddenly thought of the straw shed in the backyard, so she ran to the backyard in the rain.
Hangui guessed right. The backyard was indeed a pigpen, but the pig in the pigpen was dead. There was a big hole in its abdomen, and the internal organs were eaten up, leaving only a rotting shell.
Just as Han Gui was stunned at the pig's corpse, she suddenly heard the sound of the door being opened. She knew that the old man had come out and patrolled the pig's pen and found that there was nowhere to hide. In desperation, she gritted her teeth and hid in the pig's abdomen.
Hangui saw the old man pushing open the door of the room he was sleeping in the gap. After finding that there was no one in the room, he roared angryly. Then a black fog rose all over his body. When the black fog dissipated, the old man had turned into a carved eagle, but its head had two more horns than ordinary carved eagles.
The eagle patrolled the yard, as if thinking Hangui had escaped. It soared into the air, and made a crying sound from its mouth, flapping its wings and flew out, looking at the direction, it should be looking for Hangui on the way.
Hangui was so scared that his legs became weak, but she was afraid that the monster would come back soon, so she didn't dare to stay here too much for a moment. After crawling out of the dead pig's abdomen, she ran in the opposite direction to the monster.
Hangui didn't know how long she had run. It was raining heavily, and she didn't dare to stop. In the end, it was an Taoist priest blocking her way, saying that she had demonic energy on her body, and asked her if she had encountered some monster.
Hangui told the Taoist priest about his previous experience. After hearing this, the Taoist priest pondered for a moment, and then asked Hangui to take him to the house. Before the monster came back, the Taoist priest took out a stack of talisman paper, set up a formation in front and behind the house, and then hid aside and waited with Hangui.
After a while, the monster flew back. As soon as it landed in the yard, it was bound by the formation. The Taoist priest took out a small bottle and took it into the bottle. He said that he would take the monster back to the Taoist temple to suppress it.
Taoist told Hangui that this monster is Guyu , which looks very similar to the ordinary eagle, and its characteristic is that it has two horns on its head. Gu eagles often appear in the mountains and forests. They will tempt passers-by into their nests and then chew on them. The Taoist priest guessed that the Gu eagle could not see anyone in the mountains for a long time, so he left the mountain and ate the old man's family. Then, when he was hungry, he swallowed the pig's internal organs. Hangui passed by the mountain and was seen by it, so it turned into an old man's appearance and brought Hangui to the old man's house with the intention of eating her too.
Hangui was very scared after hearing this. In the next few days, she traveled day and night without daring to stop for a moment. Finally, she rushed back to her parents' home five days later.
