1. Yin soldiers transit
During my childhood, the countryside in northern Henan Province was not yet electrified. At night, when it is dark and there is no entertainment, people like to go to the west of the village under the old pear tree to chat and kill time, gossip, talk about foxes and ghosts, so as to pass the long lonely and boring night.
The three wilderness masters, who live in the east end of the back street of Liucun, once told us about a strange thing that happened in the back of our village during the ** period.
Perhaps it was this strange incident that caused too much shock to the Three Wilderness Lords, after many years, the Three Wilderness Masters still remember very clearly, it was an afternoon in the summer of **35 years, that is, in 1946, the Three Wilderness Masters and a group of little playmates were herding sheep on the barren meadow behind the village.
Children have a lot of playfulness and run wildly in the grass while herding sheep. Before I knew it, it was almost dusk, and many friends were leading their sheep home. The third wilderness was only eight years old at that time, and he was still a full country urchin, because he was greedy for fun catching grasshoppers, so he stayed in the field and did not leave, allowing the lamb to graze in the field.
Unconsciously, the light of the setting sun gradually dimmed, and a layer of twilight filled the sky over the field, and the sky gradually darkened. The third desolate master was about to take the sheep home, and he didn't watch out for the sheep bleating!
The three wilderness masters hurriedly looked at the place where the sheep were screaming, and couldn't help but be stunned all of a sudden!
I saw that in front of the flock, a group of Japanese soldiers appeared at some point, all wearing yellow uniforms, belts around their waists, carrying bayonets, and walking neatly in the direction of the sheep grazing.
The third desolate master was shocked, but fortunately there was a large clump of half-human-tall castor beans next to him, so he hurriedly got in and hid. Through the gaps between the castor trees, the three barren masters found that the group of Japanese soldiers walked fast in unison, but strangely enough, they couldn't see their feet, they didn't make a sound, and they were as blind to the flock of sheep in front of them as air.
At that moment, the three wilderness masters were frightened, and their brains went blank! After a while, the twilight gradually dissipated, and the Japanese soldiers were gone!
The three desolate masters were so frightened that they hurried to drive the sheep home, and when they got home and told their parents, they were also very surprised, because at that time, Japan had surrendered for more than half a year, how could there be Japanese soldiers in the country?
Later, according to the elderly people in the village, five years ago, that is, in 1941, a unit of the Eighth Route Army once ambushed a group of Japanese soldiers who were grabbing food in the depression behind our village. The old man also said that what the three desolate masters saw that time was not a real Japanese soldier, but the legendary "Yin soldier transit".
I don't know if the so-called Japanese soldiers that Sanhuang Ye saw when he was a child are related to the Japanese undead in this ambush.
Second, the sound of the spinning wheel
In my hometown of Liucun, in the seventies and eighties of the last century, it is said that there was a spinning cart.
The place where this spinning cart is infested is generally in the back street of our Liucun.
In those years, there was a shortage of food and clothing, and the peasants lived a very hard life, and there were few finished clothes to buy in the countryside. Most of the peasants spun and weave cloth, and then use the woven cloth to make clothes, shoes and hats.
The so-called "flower" is actually cotton. Farmers in their hometown of northern Henan used to call cotton "flowers".
Grandma Wang in the backstreet of Liucun is a **ten-year-old, with small feet, kind eyebrows, very kind and caring, and a rare kind-hearted old lady. Grandma Wang's family has a spinning wheel, which was the dowry given by her mother's family when she married into Liucun as a new daughter-in-law.
Grandma Wang is very hardworking, working in the field with the men during the day, and not resting after coming back at night to brush the pot and cook, and often spinning flowers until late at night. The backstreets of Liucun and Grandma Wang's neighborhoods can be heard almost every night with the humming of her spinning wheel in the dead of night.
Grandma Wang has worked hard all her life for the sake of her family and children, and has brought up a pair of children. After they started their own families, Grandma Wang finally became ill due to overwork, and finally fell ill and died.
What is quite bizarre is that after Grandma Wang's death, her neighbors can still hear the familiar humming of the spinning wheel in the middle of the night, and this strange sound is like a wisp, which usually disappears slowly after the rooster crows three times.
Some people say that this kind of buzzing in the middle of the night is the ghost of Grandma Wang. She was attached to her spinning wheel and her family, so she often came to visit it late at night. Others believe that it is precisely because of Grandma Wang's kindness that many people in Liucun miss her. Therefore, as soon as I pass by her door, I will only hear the humming sound of the spinning wheel in the dead of night, all of which is just a psychological effect of people.
In a word. There are all kinds of opinions, and there are different opinions.
In the countryside of northern Henan at that time, there were too many strange facts, who could explain it!
3. Misfortune detains the soul
This is a true story that happened in the front street of Liucun, his hometown.
The person who experienced this story was a little girl Xiuxiu, who was only three years old at the time.
Xiuxiu's grandfather, Jin Dou, is a kind little old man. He was tall and thin, with a goatee on his chin and a kind personality. In the early 80s of the last century, the countryside in northern Henan was still very poor, and the children had no snacks for many years. The old man was very kind, he liked children, and when he met the children in the village, he was so happy that he would bring dates or apples and pears from the house to the children. Therefore, at that time, many children liked to go to Grandpa Xiuxiu's house to play, and slowly, Jin Dou's old man's house became a lively "human field" on Liucun Front Street.
Xiuxiu also likes to go to her grandfather's house to play. As soon as Xiuxiu went to her grandfather's house to play, her grandfather was very happy to hold Xiuxiu to play "lifting high", swinging, kicking shuttlecocks, and often peeling apples and smashing walnuts for her to eat. People in the village love to say that Xiuxiu sticks to grandpa, and it is grandpa's close-fitting little padded jacket.
When Xiuxiu was three years old, her grandfather suddenly lay in bed and couldn't afford to go to the county hospital for examination, but it turned out to be an incurable liver cancer in the advanced stage, and asked them to go home to prepare for the future. Since then, the family has not let Xiuxiu look for her grandfather again, for fear that the disease of Jin Dou will infect Xiuxiu.
On the morning of the old man Jin Dou's death, Xiuxiu was playing outside the gate of her grandfather's house, and suddenly cried without warning.
Mom and Dad asked her anxiously, "Why are you crying, Nier?" So sad! ”
Xiuxiu wiped her eyes with her sleeve, still sobbing and said, "Grandpa! My grandfather is gone! As he spoke, he pointed his finger up the street with dots. Everyone looked in the direction of her finger, but they didn't see anything!
At this moment, Xiuxiu's grandfather, Jin Dou, was actually lying motionless on the bed in the hall, unconscious.
That night, Grandpa Xiuxiu passed away!
According to Liu Banxian, a god in the front street of the village, what Xiuxiu saw that day was not actually a person, but a messenger sent by the underworld to detain the soul of Xiuxiu's grandfather, Jin Dou.
