This is the story of the soul-returning night that my grandfather told me.
The night of returning to the soul is the seventh day after a person dies, when ghost messengers come back with their souls locked up to visit their relatives. On Huihun night, you should avoid ghost stories in the military camp . Those who should sleep should sleep, and those who can't sleep should pretend to sleep under the quilt. Don't let him see it, or he will miss it very much and take his relatives with him.
On the night of returning to the soul, some people will sprinkle some limestone on the ground at home, and when you get up the next morning, there will be footprints on the limestone one by one.
When I was a child, on the night of my mother-in-law's return to the soul, I couldn't sleep no matter what. I still remember that my mother-in-law had cataracts before she was alive, she was wearing a walking stick, and the ground was pounding loudly. The eldest urinated frequently, and had to get up several times a night, because her eyes were not very good, and she often went to the wrong room.
On the night of returning to the soul, I listened carefully with my ears upright. At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, I heard the sound of the ground at home. When I heard the sound of my mother-in-law hitting a walking stick, I knew that my mother-in-law was back. . I also heard the sound of her pushing the door of my room. At that time, I pretended to be sleeping, closed my eyes, and heard the sound of crutches, "Dong Dong Dong", very close to me, very close, slowly approaching my bed, I was still a little scared at the time. After the sound gradually disappeared, I slowly opened my eyes, but there was no sound.
I think the mother-in-law is gone.
Legend has it that you really miss your dead relatives. On the night of returning to the soul, you can see the returning relatives when you stand behind the door wearing a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat. He can’t see you. Before he leaves , Never take off your coir raincoat and bamboo hat. Otherwise, I will be discovered and take you with me.
