During the Southern Song Dynasty to the Dao Dynasty, Ying Tianjiangning had a young woman named Feng Xiu, who was born beautiful and married to Wang Wenyu, a scholar. After five years of marriage, the two have not had children, it is reasonable to say that Wang Wenyu should have divorced his wife earlier, but instead of doing so, he was getting better and better for his wife.
In fact, the year after the two became relatives, Wang Wenyu was grumpy about his wife's infertility. At that time, Wang Wenyu's mother, Chen Shi, was already terminally ill, and her only wish before she died was to be able to hold her grandson. But in the past year, Feng Xiu's stomach has not moved at all. Wang Wenyu was a filial son, and he couldn't bear his mother's regrets and finally wanted to take a concubine, but Chen Shi advised: "Son, don't wait and see." "She didn't wait for that day to die.
After the death of her mother-in-law, Feng Xiu blamed herself and knelt in front of Chen Shiling and cried all night. The next morning, he packed his bags and begged his husband to divorce his wife. Wang Wenyu advised: "The mothers have all gone, and if you are born or not, let nature take its course." Hearing this, Feng Xiu burst into tears, thinking that this husband would never want anything else in his life.
Since then, Feng Xiu has been gentle and considerate to her husband, and only obeys her orders. Wang Wenyu also actively gave back to his wife and bought her a lot of gold and silver jewelry, the most eye-catching of which was a pair of gold bracelets and gold anklets.
In addition, Wang Wenyu also gave his wife a red belly pocket with a baby embroidered on it. Wang Wenyu said that the two had no children under their knees, so he deliberately used this object to comfort her. Feng Xiu held his belly pocket and cried, "Marrying you is really a blessing that I have cultivated in my previous life." Wang Wenyu smiled, "Is this satisfied?" I'll take you to a good place again. ”
The next day, the couple came to a temple on the outskirts of the city, which was ordinary but contained many tablets. Feng Xiu fixed his eyes on it, there was a block that was his own, and he was busy asking what was going on? Wang Wenyu replied, "This is called the Immortal Card, which I specially offered for you, and it is said that with it it can last for a hundred years." ”
Feng Xiu was moved to tears, and carefully searched for the husband who had not found her, and asked, "What about yours?" Wang Wenyu said, "I can only offer one in three years, and I will come back after three years." ”
Three years have passed, and the couple is doing everything except childless. However, the strange thing is that Feng Xiu has not come to the menstrual affairs, she has looked for Lang Zhong, and Lang Zhong only said that this is related to the inability to have children.
On this day, Feng Xiu was worried about this matter again, and Wang Wenyu advised: "It doesn't matter, you are all normal now, you don't have to care about this." Feng Xiu said sadly, "Alas, it seems that we are doomed to be childless." "Say goodbye and take a basin full of clothes to the river, wash and relieve your sorrows."
Washing and washing Fengxiu suddenly found that the belly pocket sent by her husband was just in this pile of clothes. She picked up her belly pocket and cried into tears, sighing, "My son, where are you?" When will your mother be able to expect you to come? ”
At this moment, an old beggar with a crutch happened to pass by, inadvertently glancing at the belly pocket in Fengxiu's hand, and his face suddenly changed dramatically. Striding over to her, he hit her belly with a stick and asked, "Where did this come from?" When Feng Xiu saw the person coming, he looked displeased and said, "Stinky beggar, why did you knock down what my husband sent?" The old beggar heard this and suddenly realized, "No wonder, otherwise who would have sent you such a vicious thing, I tell you, your husband is not a human, he has long since become a ghost." ”
Feng Xiu said angrily, "Old beggar, Hugh wants to talk nonsense, my husband is living well, which will be a ghost?" I think you're stirring up the relationship between us. The old beggar raised an eyebrow and asked, "Oh?" I'd like to see how your husband treats you? ”
As if stimulated by the words, Feng Xiu pulled up the sleeves and trouser legs, revealing the golden bracelet and anklet of Ming Dangling, and said triumphantly: "See? My husband sent it. The old beggar suddenly stretched out two fingers and gently pointed toward the bracelet, and the bracelet immediately became two human phalanges, and the old beggar said, "This bracelet is clearly changed by a human finger bone." Immediately after that, he pointed to the other three bracelets, all of which turned into human bones.
Feng Xiu screamed in fright and asked what was going on? The old beggar said, "Hmm, this bracelet is called the Soul Bracelet, which can bind a person's soul and body for his use, which shows how vicious the person who gave you this thing is." Feng Xiu wondered, "What is the use of this on me?" The old beggar said, "This has something to do with the belly pocket, if my guess is correct, you haven't had a menstrual affair in a few years." ”
Feng Xiu's eyes widened and he nodded vigorously, and the old beggar sneered, "You have been pregnant, how can you have a menstrual affair?" "It turns out that this belly pocket is made of ghost skin, and anyone who sticks to a person will absorb energy." The soul bracelet allows Feng Xiu to become pregnant without being detected, and when the child is about to be born, it can use the ghost skin to absorb fetal energy for the manipulator to cultivate. In the past few years, she has at least been pregnant with three or four children.
Knowing the truth, Feng Xiu covered her mouth and cried, "How is this possible?" Why did my husband want to harm me and my children? Besides, he also made an immortal card for me. The old beggar said angrily, "What? Is there such a reason, that is a yin card, there is one that you can't give birth to until you die, you can only become a lone ghost. Feng Xiu did not believe it, and took the old beggar to the temple to see. Sure enough, there was only her Immortal Card, and Wang Wenyu had never set it up for herself at all.
Look closely behind the plaques, and there are a few smaller cards posted. The old beggar said, This is the card of your dead child, which shows how much your husband hates you. Feng Xiu sat paralyzed on the spot and cried, "Why? Why? The old beggar said, "For now, you have to save yourself first, and then say, in case he is not happy one day, you will die." ”
Feng Xiu asked, "Who the hell are you?" Is there a way to save me? The old beggar said, "I was originally a fallen Daoist monk, and I happened to meet you." I will untie the soul bracelet and the yin card for you for the time being, and the rest is up to you. Say a few words in her ear.
Afterwards, Feng Xiu pretended to be indifferent and went home, and lived with her husband as usual. A month later, Wang Wenyu asked, "Do I still have the bracelet I give you?" Feng Xiu shook his hands and feet, "That's nature." ”
Wang Wenyu suddenly looked gloomy, approached his wife step by step, and said, "Let me see." Feng Xiu handed his left hand to her husband, and when he was not paying attention, his right hand actually took out a red charm and pasted it. Wang Wenyu was hit by a spell in his body and immediately screamed bitterly. The strange thing was that his face was distorted and turned into the appearance of Chen Shi. Chen Shi scolded, "You two are not filial sons, take your life." "Say goodbye to the unguarded wind show."
At this moment, the old beggar threw out a few spells from the sky and shouted, "I thought wrong, it turned out that it was not your husband who harmed you, but your mother-in-law." ”
One person and one ghost fought for more than a dozen rounds, and finally Chen Shi was defeated and was beaten to death. She was covered in black air and asked angrily, "Why?" I have eaten four grandchildren in a row, why am I afraid of this spell of yours? The old beggar said, "I have removed all the restraints you have put on Feng Xiu's body, and I have used her menstrual blood to draw charms, so how can I not defeat you?" ”
It turned out that on that day, the old beggar told Feng Xiu that in a few days he would be able to menstruate, and when the time came, he would draw a symbol of menstrual blood, only because the blood contained motherhood, which could summon the will of the dead child and make the ghost be eaten. In this way, he can take advantage of the mechanism to ambush him.
Chen Shi Yangtian laughed and said, "Hahaha, I just want to hold my grandson, but these two are not filial piety, I didn't even realize my wish to die, so I turned into a powerful ghost." I first killed my son, and then controlled my daughter-in-law to give birth to children for my own cultivation, that is, to atone for their sins. The old beggar said, "You are already crazy, go to hell as soon as possible to receive punishment." With a wave of his finger, Chen Shi turned into a wisp of black smoke.
At this time, five streams of white smoke also drifted out of her body, one was Wang Wenyu, and the rest was a child. Their smiles and smiles disappeared from the wind. Feng Xiu fell to his knees crying and prostrated his head three times. Afterwards, Feng Xiu erected a crown tomb for her husband and children, and often went to worship. Three years later, Feng Xiu remarried to someone else, and perhaps God pitied her, and gave birth to a healthy son the following year after marriage.
