Chapter 262 Sister Li pretends to be a ghost
During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the wet nurse of the famous scholar Ji Xiaolan's younger brother had a daughter named Sister Li. When she grew up, she married into a nearby villager's family.
One day, Sister Li heard that her mother was sick. She was anxious. She didn't have time to wait for her husband to come home and go with her, so she hurriedly hit the road alone to visit her mother.
It was already dark at night, and Sister Li was walking on her way under the faint light of the waning moon, when she suddenly heard a rush of footsteps coming from behind.
She looked back and saw a person hurriedly chasing her from behind.
Sister Li guessed that she might have encountered a brutal thug!
However, in this empty wilderness, there was no village, no shop, and no other pedestrians on the road. It was estimated that even if I screamed until I broke my throat, I would not be able to shout to anyone to save me.
Although Sister Li was scared, she did not panic. At this time, she could only rely on herself to save herself.
She saw an ancient tomb beside the road, and there were some tall poplar trees growing in the cemetery.
So, she ducked and hid under the poplar tree.
In her panic, she did not forget to prevent the thugs from stealing her belongings.
She took off the silver hairpin on her head, gold earrings on her ears and other jewelry and hid them in her arms. Then he took off the hair ribbon and tied it around his neck, let his hair down, stuck out his tongue, and stared blankly, waiting for the person behind him to come over.
After a while, the man behind caught up with him. Seeing the way he was looking around, Sister Li knew that he had suddenly disappeared and was wondering.
When he reached the poplar tree, Sister Li not only did not run away, but instead smiled sinisterly and made a ghostly sound to invite the man to come over and sit down.
The man walked up to Sister Li and took a look, and saw that she was a woman with disheveled hair and a long tongue. He thought that Sister Li was a hanged man, and he was so frightened that he fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
Sister Li took the opportunity to run wildly and finally escaped from the man's clutches.
When she ran to her mother's house, as soon as she entered the door, the whole family was shocked to see her with disheveled hair and running out of breath. They didn't know what had happened.
After Sister Li slowly calmed down, everyone stepped forward to ask.
Sister Li told everyone about how she was chased by a madman on the road and escaped by pretending to be a hanged man.
When the family members learned what had happened, they were very angry at the madmen chasing the single woman, and at the same time they laughed endlessly at Sister Li's quick wit.
Everyone discussed in a hurry that the madman should be someone who lives nearby. Tomorrow, they should ask the neighbors or report it to the government to let the government investigate.
The next day, before the Ji family had time to do anything, they heard people in the neighborhood talking about a young man from a nearby family who encountered a hanged man last night and who was possessed by evil spirits.
It is said that the hanged man has been following the boy, who was so frightened that he lost consciousness and started talking nonsense.
As soon as the Ji family heard this, they knew that the young man was the one who chased Sister Li last night. Thinking that we were all neighbors, we did not tell the truth or pursue any further investigation.
Later, I heard that the young man's family had asked doctors to treat him and Taoist priests to draw talismans on him to drive away ghosts, but to no avail. The young man's madness could not be cured for the rest of his life.
Some people said that maybe after the young man was frightened, the demons and ghosts took advantage of the opportunity to capture him.
The specific reason is unknown.
Some people also say that maybe everything the young man saw was an illusion created by himself, and he frightened himself to the point of going crazy.
Whether it is true or false, only he himself knows.
Others said that it might be the gods who knew everything, wanted to kill evil people with ulterior motives, and secretly took away the soul of the young man, causing him to become insane.
Of course, this is also outsiders' speculation.
However, these statements can serve as a warning to those dissolute children with bad intentions!
