What are the ghosts in the ancient legends of China?

Birch: Birch was originally human. His father believed his stepmother and killed him. He became a birch bird. After his father found out that he had killed her by mistake, he shot her. Birch became a bird after his death, but his heart was clear and he lived by devouring nightmares. (Sima Biao's "The Rite of Continuing the Han Dynasty", seen in ancient Nuo ceremonies)

Gui Ling: Gui Ling was a music official in the Zhou Dynasty. He died suddenly. (See Taiping Guang Ji for details. At night, Ji Kang is playing the piano in Yuehuage on the outskirts of Luoyang. The ghosts applauded, and Ji Kang asked, "Who is it?" Gui Ling said, "I'm just a ghost, but I loved playing the piano before I died, and I couldn't help clapping." People who die suddenly look terrible, so they won't come out to meet each other. "Ji Kang insisted that he come out, so he appeared hiding his face, and then played a song" Guangling San ". Ji Kang was surprised, and Gui Ling told him about it. )

1. Stay:

Also known as Feitouliao, he was called Feitouman in "A Hundred Ghosts Walking at Night". It is a kind of monster in the south, and their heads can fly out of their bodies. In their clan, there is a sacrificial activity called Insect Falls, so the whole ethnic group is also called Insect Falls.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Huan Zhu, the general of the State of Wu, had a handmaid. Every night, after others sleep, her head flies away. Go in and out through the dog hole and skylight, and use your ears as wings. At dawn, her head flew back. People around them noticed that something was wrong, so they lit a lamp to see the maid at night and saw that she had only a headless body and hardly breathed.

People covered her body with quilts. At dawn, her head flew back, but because the quilt covered her body, her head could not fit in and fell to the ground. Her head sighed, she was sad, her body was short of breath, as if she were dying. So people took off their quilts, their heads flew again, put them around their necks, and soon calmed down.

Huan Zhu felt that this handmaid was a monster, and she was too scared to adopt again, so she was released. I will know her situation in detail in the future before I know that she is a laggard. At that time, the generals who conquered the south got many such people. Someone once put a copper coin around his neck after his head flew away, so that his head could not be taken back, and they died.

(From "Searching for the Gods" by Gambao, Luo Toumin's other deeds are also recorded in Notes, Natural History and Youyang Miscellanies. )

He did, watched the thunder pill, and the yes-man didn't dare to answer, so Yang Xu bought the thunder pill and ate it, and vomited a figure two inches long. )

8. Wild dogs:

Monsters with animal heads eat the brains of dead people. (See Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio Wild Dog. This article is very wonderful, and the imagination of a group of corpses jumping up is very admirable. It's about fighting against the Qing dynasty and regaining sight, and killing people like hemp. Li Hualong, a villager, avoided catching up with the Qing soldiers to search the mountain, and lay down to install the body. Shortly after the Qing soldiers, suddenly, a corpse with a broken head jumped up and stood as dense as a tree. A corpse with only a little skin on its head and body said, "What if wild dogs come?" The bodies all said "helpless" and then they all fell down. Li Hualong stood up trembling to run, only to see something coming, the head of a wild animal, hideous, lying on his stomach biting the head of a corpse and sucking its brains. Li Hualong quickly hid under other bodies. Monsters suck one by one, and soon they will suck Li Hualong and move Li Hualong's body. Li Hualong touched a stone the size of a bowl and smashed it into the monster's mouth. The monster screamed and fled with blood. Li Hualong picked up the monster's teeth and went back to the village to show everyone. Nobody recognized what it was. )

Wearing a light blue shirt. Wear a bright yellow skirt. The shape is absolutely short. For a long time, it did not move. Fu Mo recited the Hua Gai mantra several times. Come out of the curtain. Those who stand up straight exclaim. Ask why. Yue. A woman came out of it. It is urgent. Be honest with everyone. Say its clothes. This is what you see. This symbol means disappearing. I can't walk around at night. Go back to the pillow. I used to dream and sleep. Pillow his left shoulder. As cold as ice. I said I was Jiang Tong's daughter. This is the end of production. " )
