In a village called Tujia Village in Neijiang City, Sichuan Province, when it was late at night, the villagers would hear a frightening roar, which seemed to be a wolf howling, but the villagers had not seen a wolf near the village.
After careful searching, it was found that the voice was made by a boy named Xiao Jie from the same village.
When it comes to Xiao Jie, both the family and the people in the same village are sorry and at the same time a little afraid. Because 13-year-old Xiao Jie has been locked up in a small room by his parents, he rarely has contact with outsiders, and he is afraid because Xiao Jie does not behave like a "person", he often eats live chickens and ducks, and even kittens and puppies, and drinks dirty water underground when he is thirsty.
According to Xiao Jie's parents, Xiao Jie was born on a day of thunder and lightning, and when he was born, he did not see any difference, and Xiao Jie's parents who lived in the mountainous countryside did not have much expectations for Xiao Jie, only hoping that he could grow up healthy.
But as Xiao Jie grew up day by day, the family found that Xiao Jie was getting more and more wrong, he could not speak, could not laugh, did not interact with the outside world, the only way to express emotions was to howl and cry, and he rarely stood up and walked, always liked to curl up and crouch on the ground.
These abnormal behaviors did not attract too much attention from Xiao Jie's parents, and really made Xiao Jie's mother realize that Xiao Jie's special was when he was two years old. That day, Xiao Jie's mother was doing housework, and in the blink of an eye, she saw Xiao Jie bite and kill two geese in the family, and Xiao Jie couldn't even walk at that time. Since then, Xiao Jie will bite them when he sees animals such as chickens, ducks and geese.
Faced with this situation of Xiao Jie, Xiao Jie's parents had to lock himself in a small room. When the investigators went to the room to visit Xiao Jie, they were surprised, because as soon as they approached the window, they found Xiao Jie ruthlessly biting a chicken. But Xiao Jie's seven-year-old sister was not afraid to go to her brother at all, because of this scene, Xiao Jie's sister had become accustomed to it.
In the face of the fear of the people around him, Xiao Jie was indifferent, did not even raise his head, but was just tearing the prey in his hand. Xiao Jie's father knew that his son had bitten another chicken, so he snatched the dying chicken out of the house and took it outside. But Xiao Jie took advantage of the fact that everyone was not paying attention, ran out of the house and once again carried the prey back to the house.
When the people in the village knew about Xiao Jie's behavior, they were very scared and slowly called him "Wolf Child".
Since ancient times, there has been a saying of "werewolves" in the West. As shown in the movie, werewolves and ordinary people are no different in normal times, but every full moon night, he will transform into a werewolf, lose his rationality, and become very grumpy. Compared with Xiao Jie's usual strange performance, some people think that Xiao Jie's past life may be a wolf.
There are also many reports of "beast children" around the world, such as a child named Malaya in Ukraine, when he was three years old, his parents forgot him outside after getting drunk, he climbed to a dog himself, since then Maraya was adopted by this dog, he ate and lived with the dog, 5 years later he returned to humanity and began to learn to speak again, but there are still some dog habits on his body.
For example, in 1920, in a small city called Midnapol in the northeast of Kolkata, India, it was found that in the nearby forest, two mysterious creatures would follow the three big wolves at night, and later people found that the two creatures were two little girls, the eldest was seven or eight years old, and the youngest was only two years old.
But after comparison, you will find that Xiao Jie is different from them, they have more or less had the experience of living with animals, but Xiao Jie has not, Xiao Jie has lived with his parents since birth, has not left the village, and has not lived with animals.
However, looking at Xiao Jie's ignorance of the outside world, his parents were very distressed but there was no way.
Xiao Jie does not drink water from a bowl, even if he brings water to him, he will still put his mouth directly into the bowl to drink, and he likes to drink dirty water. He also does not use chopsticks, spoons and other basic tools of life, eat anything with his hands, even if the leftovers are put in front of him, he will still knock over the bowl, sprinkle the food on the ground, and then go to the ground to grab dirty rice to eat. So even if it's something clean, he doesn't eat it, and he doesn't want to eat it until it's dirty.
Looking at Xiao Jie's eating habits, some people speculate whether Xiao Jie has returned to his ancestors.
The so-called back-to-ancestor phenomenon refers to the appearance of certain traits of ancestors in a certain part of the organism, such as some children will grow a short tail on the buttocks when they are born, and some children will have long hairs on their bodies as soon as they are born.
In "Little Hairy Kid Raiders", it is a real-life story, the protagonist is called Yu Zhenhuan, when he was born, his whole body was full of hair, and many people said that he was the reincarnation of Sun Wukong.
96% of Yu Zhenhuan's skin is covered with red hair, the length of hair can reach 4.2 centimeters, and he has 41 hairs per square centimeter, that is, the size of a fingernail, so he has been identified by the Guinness World Records Headquarters as the person with the largest hair coverage throughout the body. This phenomenon manifested on Yu Zhenhuan after examination was identified as a kind of human atavistic phenomenon.
However, in addition to the fact that Xiao Jie behaves differently from ordinary people, his body parts are no different from ordinary people, so it is difficult to be considered a "back to the ancestor phenomenon".
There is also speculation that Xiao Jie will not have "pica", because Xiao Jie not only likes to eat dirty things, he also likes to eat raw bean shells, straw and so on, which are all things that are picked up on the ground, he can eat. If ordinary people eat these things, they will definitely not digest and show discomfort, but Xiao Jie can always eat.
All kinds of speculations don't feel very reasonable, because The behavior shown by Xiao Jie does not completely match those speculations. So the investigators asked the doctor to come to Xiao Jie's home to check it out.
It is initially believed that Xiao Jie is severely retarded. According to the doctor, the reason why Xiao Jie likes to curl up and eat dirty things is because he has a large number of parasites in his body; and he likes to eat animals raw because Xiao Jie's brain is not fully developed, so this taste is not impressed in his brain; and Xiao Jie has been locked in a small room for a long time, isolated from outside personnel, and has not received timely treatment and recognition, so the brain gradually shrinks and the condition becomes more and more serious.
Long-term bad living habits, coupled with no correct guidance, so it is difficult to completely cure, and the real feasible way is that Xiao Jie's parents usually take more time to strengthen the training of Xiao Jie's language, as well as teach him to eat chopsticks, etc., to ensure good hygiene eating habits.
In the face of the doctor's advice, Xiao Jie's parents showed a very embarrassed look, because Xiao Jie's family was poor, his parents often worked, and there was no time to take care of Xiao Jie, and Xiao Jie's elderly grandmother usually had to work, and only after work could she take time to care for this special little grandson.
Looking at Xiao Jie, who was curled up in the hut with a confused face, anyone would feel a little sad and helpless.
