First index finger
I have a very good friend who inherited a rich legacy from his parents after graduating from medical university. Even if he doesn't work all his life, he will spend enough money. But he doesn't like women, and he doesn't like enjoyment. He likes to collect all kinds of strange stories. Most of the time, he is not at home and travels outside. He has no other friends. In others' eyes, he is an eccentric, but it happened that I am also a curiosity hunter. So whenever he encounters strange things, he is willing to come to me to share his pleasure in exploring strange things. No, I just got a call from him. It is said that he came back from a trip abroad with many fresh and interesting stories. I rushed there at once, because I was on annual leave, so I simply moved to his house. Listen to him tell those strange stories every night. Just one night. First index finger
My friend showed me his index finger mysteriously while smoking a cigarette. "You see, everyone's index finger represents human greed, because the desire to eat is the most basic and primitive desire of human beings. Do you know why it's called index finger? Because the ancients said that once you see something delicious, your index finger will jump. Isn't there an idiom called' forefinger moves'? I will tell you the story of an index finger now. " With that, he put out his cigarette and began to tell a story.
"When I went to a small town in the southwest, I lived in a family. There is a very old man. The old man is in good spirits. I talked to him when I was free. I learned such a story from him. During the Republic of China, girls here had to have a good figure, especially a waist, if they wanted to marry a good family. It is said that some people have clear norms and standards, accurate to the millimeter. I laughed: "This is too exaggerated". The thinner a girl is, the more beautiful she feels, which seems to be just the opposite of the fat in the Tang Dynasty. Perhaps the local people are very disgusted with pigs, which means that anyone who is obese is ugly. So the girls there went on a diet desperately, in order to have a gentle figure that shook step by step and the wind blew catkins.
One of the girls, Xiu, stopped eating meat, including pasta, because she realized that her happiness in life was inversely proportional to her waistline. But it seems that fate likes to play jokes on people. Even if Xiu insists on exercising from morning till night and eats only a little fruit, she will get fat. It may be a genetic problem, or it may be a disease at all. But people at that time didn't think so. Those skinny girls laughed at Xiu behind her back, saying that she was reincarnated as a pig. The family can't help but sigh. Because Xiu's figure is getting fatter and fatter, not to mention marrying a good family, I'm afraid even the poorest fourth family in the local area will not want her.
Speaking of the fourth child, in fact, we can find some relatives related to Xiujia, but such relatives are like countless hairs on the head, and we must not lose a few every day. However, Yue Xiu, the son of Lao Si, was a childhood friend. They often played together when they were young. However, since Li Xiu decided to marry a rich man, she broke up with her fourth son. However, the son of Lao Si has always kept the program in his heart. At this time, Xiu's parents have been neglected. Their greatest wish is to marry Xiu quickly so as not to make a fool of themselves at home. After all, they think there are still many such goods at home.
Min, the son of Lao Si, is actually handsome in appearance, but his family is poor and ragged, but he is clean, both in people and clothes. Xiu's father mentioned this to Lao Si, and Lao Si and his son agreed without thinking. As a result, the complicated procedures of proposing marriage, hiring, answering books and inviting guests to dinner were completed in one day, which was also a record at that time.
Although xiu has all kinds of grievances, she is helpless. Who says he is not good? If you don't get married again, I'm afraid even the common people will look down on you in a few years, not to mention that her husband is obedient and loving to himself, and life will be like this.
Things are often so coincidental, perhaps because of feng shui, perhaps because of mood. Xiu became thinner and thinner after marrying her fourth child, and finally became a famous local thin beauty. It's a pity that she is already a woman. However, many people still play her mind. People there don't care about the first marriage or the second marriage. Because the daughter-in-law is only a fertility tool for those people, and it is the improvement of feng shui at home.
Show yourself restless. She insisted on not having children. This is very distressing. He knows that he can't stay on the show without children. Actually, there are children who can stay? Xiujia quit her job, met some friends to chat and go shopping, or went to a big house. Unlike the daughter-in-law of a poor family.
It seems that it is all the fault of thinness. People know that Xiu will stay at home only if he is fat again.
Before long, Xiu really gained weight again, and everything seemed to go back to the past. She became a peasant woman again. She hates the game of fate. Only everyone secretly laughed. On the surface, I complained to her and comforted her.
Time is like a shuttle weaving clothes, which shuttles back and forth. Ten years have passed quickly. Xiu also gave birth to several children. She stopped dreaming. Live with the people in peace of mind. Until their daughter the moon grows up.
The moon is beautiful and absorbs the advantages of her parents. But it seems that she has always been neither fat nor thin. Even occasionally plump. In fact, according to current standards, it is not fat at all. However, Xiu doesn't want her daughter to make the same mistake. She began to control the baby's diet very early. But the effect is not very great. Seeing that the moon is almost sixteen. But the waist circumference exceeds that of a girl his age. The anxious show can't sleep every day.
Watching my wife endure dark circles every day. Min finally could not help it. Maybe he thought that time diluted everything. It's okay to tell your wife at this time.
On this day, two people slept in bed with clothes on. Xiu still can't find it over and over. Min broke her body. Positive color way:' Do you know how you suddenly lost weight when you entered the door?'
Xiu shook his head strangely and immediately asked,' Why?'
That's because of me. Although our family is poor, we know a way to make people thin. However, the ancestors confessed that it was forbidden, and if it was over-controlled, it would get retribution, but they didn't know what retribution was. I gave you this operation when you came home, and then I solved it when you wanted to leave, so you gained weight again. "People said gloomily.
Xiu has passed the age of anger. In fact, when she suddenly became thin and fat, she thought that her husband might be playing tricks on her, but she was curious when she heard this wonderful Chinese character. Forget it, it's all over, I don't blame you, but you can't delay the bright moon, I want her to marry a good family! Tell me now! '
People looked at their anxious wives and hesitated. Finally, he raised his index finger and said to Xiu,' It's a finger.'
Fingers? What do you mean? Xiu Xiu asked strangely. Min told Xiu that according to legend, hundreds of years ago, our ancestors kindly took in a beggar during the famine. It is said that this beggar is not a mortal, but a Maoshan warlock wandering among the people. He's just pretending to be a beggar, to see everyone's kindness. He saw that the ancestors of the people had a kind heart. I taught some spells to the ancestors of the people. Later handed down from generation to generation, most of them have been lost. Only this sparse method has been strangely preserved. But the people's family began to decline. I'm afraid this is related to many taboos circulating among the people about the use of Maoshan. Maoshan art has many taboos. Once it is destroyed, it will be a disaster of wealth, even blood, and even a disaster of future generations. Compared with the ancestors of the people, they must do some unfair things with magic before they can be rewarded.
As for this spell, Min told Xiu, in fact, just swallow the nail of his index finger. But this operation can only last for a few years at most. There is a limit to how thin everyone can be. If you use it too much, it is said that terrible things will happen in the end. Because it is thin, people seldom use it, but their father taught them to use it.
No wonder you are so kind to help me manicure every time you see me in the future. Xiu said in a strange tone. It's a little embarrassing. Touching his wife's face,' I still like you. '
Forget it, I'm not angry anymore. You can do this operation tomorrow to make the moon slim down quickly. '
Min nodded and the couple went to bed again.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the moon to lose weight, and it was the most beautiful and spiritual. Neighbors praised Min Hexiu for raising such a good daughter, and I will definitely marry a good family. Husband and wife laughed their heads off.
But unfortunately, the biggest local head of household is looking for a wife. This rich man is the kind of person whose daughter-in-law's weight and waistline are accurate to the smallest unit. Xiu, of course, let her daughter try. Unfortunately, it is so close. And the moon is already the lightest. The rich man sent word that if no one qualified within a week, he would look elsewhere. Xiu is bent on marrying off her daughter. They forced people to cast spells again. People said helplessly, "Have you ever heard of Dai Zong, a messenger?" In fact, there are different degrees of surgery like that. It is said that a messenger delayed the delivery of the letter. Afraid of being scolded, the new Maoshan warlock taught him to prick the soles of his feet with a silver needle to hold back the pain and release the mixed blood. You can travel for 300 days and 300 nights. Sure enough. Later, the messenger asked the warlock how to run faster. The warlock said that as long as the kneecaps of both legs are removed, you can travel two thousand miles day and night. As a result, the messenger scared away. "
Why are you telling me this? Xiu Xiu asked strangely.
I want to tell you that if you want the moon to lose weight, you won't pay for your nails. They said with concern. Xiu was silent for a long time, and finally insisted that the moon must enter the giants. People asked their daughter's opinion, and the moon naturally hoped that her mother would be happy and her family would get rid of poverty, so she agreed. People are just two people. But what is needed this time is that the moon must eat its index finger!
Large families don't care about less heels, as long as they meet other standards. Finger can be said to have been injured as a child before. So the moon gritted its teeth and chopped off its forefinger and ate it. Sure enough, the next day, the moon obviously lost weight, and as soon as the wound on her hand healed, she immediately went to the rich man's house. The rich man was worried. When she saw the moon, she was ecstatic. The marriage was soon settled. Everyone seems to have forgotten their fingers. Things slowly returned to calm. Min Hexiu is also living a rich life with the money of the rich man's family. At this time, although the Central Plains was in flames of war. But war can't burn this place. It's still a paradise.
Not long after, the moon that passed the door became pregnant and gave birth to a son. This seems to be a good thing. But soon the moon's body rose like a balloon. Out of control Husband and family are puzzled by the sudden obesity of the baby. They told Min about it, saying that it was no problem to get fatter after marriage, but it would be difficult for Yueer to be their daughter-in-law. If the moon continues to get fat, they decide to divorce her.
Xiu cried and asked the people, and they struggled for a long time. I looked up some books. Finally, I know that a lot of blood loss will break this spell when the mother gives birth. Xiu gained weight after giving birth to a baby, so people didn't care if this technology would be solved. At this point, Xiu Xiu looked at her daughter's balloon-like body and cried and asked everyone; Even if it will change back to its original state, our moon should not be like this! '
Min told Xiu that once the spell is saved, the body will rebound like a spring that has been saved for a long time, and it is rich in nutrition when doing confinement, and even ordinary people are easy to get fat.
I don't care, if this continues, our family will not stand any longer, and my grandson and Xiuzi will not see it. How can you stand it? '
People hold their heads and look at their daughters and wives who are crying at the side, and finally say with difficulty; This technique can still be done again. But ...'
No buts, I'm willing to give anything to save my daughter. Xiu cried for the people, and Moon knelt on the ground and begged her father.
I don't know what the consequences will be, because even our ancestors never cast spells like this again and again. They repeatedly warned future generations that if they used too much, they would be cursed. '
Maybe it's just that Taoist priest scared you, and you said no one used it. How do you know that you will be punished by God? Xiu Xiu asked. Everyone was silent and finally agreed to the last operation.
This time, it is not the finger of the moon, but the index finger of Min Hexiu, because children and parents have an invisible bond. If one party transfers his illness or pain to the other party, he can also transfer it to the other party. So the moon swallowed the forefinger cut off by her parents. Minhe Xiu endured the severe pain and settled her daughter to sleep. They stayed up all night, afraid that something bad would happen, but everything seemed to be going well. The next morning, the moon returned to its pre-marriage posture, just like a girl. The couple safely sent the moon back to their father-in-law's house, where the husband and others were surprised to see this scene, but since losing weight was naturally a good thing, the smiling family went back. Minhe Xiu also went home to recuperate.
But late the next night. Just when Minhe Xiu was asleep, her in-laws suddenly sent a funeral report, asking Minhe Xiu to come quickly. It turned out that the moon died suddenly that night. Death is terrible. Xiu fainted on the spot. People had to identify the bodies separately. Along the way, people's heads were blank and they were led into the scene like walking dead. It's really hard for him to accept his daughter's sudden departure. But when he saw his daughter's body, let's call it a body, he almost fainted.
The moon has been bitten by animals, almost like a skeleton without good meat. Nearly two meters from the bed to the ground are traces of the moon dragging. There is blood and minced meat everywhere. The moon held its head high and reached out to the door. It is estimated that she turned down from the bed and tried to open the door, but only climbed a few meters and died. I'm afraid she suffered a lot before she died. People don't understand. Is this the so-called karma? Looking at his daughter's body, he sat on the ground and burst into tears.
Because of the fear of death and the strict family style of the rich. Few people know the truth about the death of the moon. Tell the world that mistress is going to die. The rich man gave Minhe a large sum of money to leave here. It's a pity that Xiu blamed herself after knowing her daughter's tragic death, and then she killed herself. People also disappeared out of thin air.
It is said that Maoshan art itself is a kind of exorcism. For example, a performer can transfer other people's meat or food into his own hands, or transfer his pain to others. It is estimated that this operation is also to transfer the obesity that was originally on yourself to others. But every technology always has its own side. People's repeated operations have finally been rewarded, but unfortunately they have been rewarded by their own families. As for the tragic death of the moon. In fact, it is a self-attack of surgery. In Buddhism, there is a kind of ghost among the six paths. They are small, like ants, but they are numerous. They were hungry before they died, and when they became ghosts, they would eat everything. The index finger is a symbol of appetite. Eating your index finger is actually a contract with a hungry ghost. They will help you eat those disgusting fats and fats you don't want. But once the contract is out of control or excessive, they will devour you. "
At this point, my friend leaned over and whispered to me, "I couldn't help touching my index finger when I heard the story told by the old man." I thought, can you really lose weight by eating your index finger? " Just as I was wondering, the old man smiled and got up and left. I noticed that he had only four fingers on one hand, but his forefinger was missing. Later, I asked around, and neighbors said they didn't know the old man, saying that the old man seemed to have arrived after liberation, and everyone called him Minbo. "
I listened with my mouth open. I also stroked my index finger like a friend, and my mind suddenly remembered the ants I saw the other day. Suddenly I felt a sharp pain. My friend looked at me in a daze and patted me on the shoulder with a smile. "Don't worry, there are some things, no,no.. You shouldn't rely on manpower to force them. "
"That's not necessarily. Everything depends on people. Don't leave it to fate. " I also retorted with a smile.
My friend looked at me. "Have you ever heard the story of half a face?"
"No" I looked at him, and suddenly there was something strange on his face, like clay sculpture.
"Come on, let's talk about it tomorrow. Look, the sun is out. " My friend suddenly returned to normal and pointed to the sun outside the window. I had to restrain my curiosity and go to bed first. We'll continue at night.
