Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-02-23

In an ancient village in southern China, there is a place that is revered by the villagers, called the Netherworld. The trees in the Netherworld Forest are lush and do not see sunlight all year round, and the forest is filled with a layer of mist, giving people an eerie feeling. Legend has it that there lived a female ghost named Yulan in the forest, and her cry would be heard at night, making people feel terrified when they heard it.

The story of Youlan has been passed down in the village for a long time. It is said that she was a very beautiful woman during her lifetime, and she died of hatred because she was betrayed by her lover. Her soul could not rest in peace, and she turned into a female ghost, wandering the Netherworld in search of the person who betrayed her.

Xiaojie, a young man in the village, is a bold and careful young man. He is full of curiosity about the story of Youlan, and decides to enter the Netherworld Forest on a dark and windy night to uncover the truth about the female ghost of Youlan.

Xiao Jie took an oil lamp and walked into the Netherworld Forest alone. The fog in the forest was thicker than usual, and the light of the oil lamps could only illuminate a few paces ahead. As Xiao Jie walked, he suddenly heard a low cry, which was like a wail from hell, which was terrifying.

Although Xiao Jie was scared in his heart, he did not flinch. He followed the cry and came to a clearing. There is a dilapidated tomb in the clearing**, and the words "Tomb of Youlan" are engraved on the tombstone. Xiaojie was about to get closer to check, when suddenly, a gust of wind blew, the oil lamp went out, and the surroundings fell into darkness.

At this moment, the crying stopped, replaced by a faint female voice: "Who are you?"Why are you here disturbing my peace?Xiaojie plucked up the courage to reply: "I am Xiaojie from the village, I heard your story and want to know the truth." ”

There was a hint of sadness in Youlan's voice: "I am Youlan, I was betrayed by my lover before I was alive, and I turned into a female ghost after I died. I waited here for a hundred years, just to find the negative man and make him repay him for his betrayal of me. ”

Xiaojie felt sympathy, and he asked Youlan, "Can I help you do something?"Youlan said: "My favorite thing in my life was embroidery, and my embroidery needle was taken away by the negative person and hidden in the ancient well in the forest. If you can help me find my embroidery needle, maybe I can let go of my hatred and be free. ”

Xiaojie agreed to Youlan's request, and he searched for a long time in the forest, and finally found the embroidery needle in an ancient well. When he placed the embroidery needle in front of Youlan's grave, Youlan's crying stopped, and her figure appeared in the moonlight, she was wearing the clothes of her life, beautiful and sad.

Youlan took the embroidery needle, and a long-lost smile appeared on her face. She said to Xiaojie, "Thank you, Xiaojie. Your kindness has made me let go of a hundred years of hatred. I'm going to leave here and go to another world. After saying that, Youlan's figure gradually became transparent, and finally disappeared into the night.

**Ten Thousand Fans Incentive Program Since then, there has been no crying from the Netherworld, and the villagers no longer have to worry about the horrors of the night. Xiaojie's story has also become a legend in the village, and his courage and kindness are celebrated. And Youlan, the female ghost who was once tortured, finally got to rest, and her story has become a poignant folklore.
