Chapter 39 night tour girl

No one knows the name of this vicious animal that only appears at night.In different records, it has been given different names, "Xuanzhong Ji" called it Guhuo, "Ling Biao Yilu" called it a ghost car, "Bai Ze Tu" called it Cang Yu, "Emperor Ku "Shu" called it "Ni" and "Bian Yi Zhi" called it "Qu Yi".In addition, there are titles such as Tiandi Nu, Gouxing, Migu, Yinfei, etc., which are scattered in various ancient Chinese natural history works.  However, this kind of animal is usually called "Night Walking Girl". Duan Chengshi believed that this bird was transformed by the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven, but he did not specify which Emperor it was.Today's Yuan Ke verified that the father of Yexingyounv was probably Zhuanxu, one of the five emperors.This is the origin of the name "Daughter of Heavenly Emperor".

 Zhuanxu had three sons and two daughters, each of whom has acquired the ability to do evil, and the nocturnal wanderer is no exception.She is said to have died of dystocia.His father Zhuanxu thought his daughter was very pitiful, so he gave her the magic power to transform into a bird shape.Unexpectedly, the night wandering girl used this magic power to do evil, always trying to get back her lost child.Whenever the weather is fine, she puts on thick brown feathers, transforms into a bird, and walks through the houses and courtyards where humans live.She pays attention to the clothes that people hang in the yard to dry. If there are baby clothes or diapers to dry, the nocturnal girl will bite the tip of her tongue, and put a drop or two of colorless blood on the roof of the house, and then wait for the night. Advent.

   night finally arrived.Hidden in the dark skies, this brown ghost patrols the humans of the Nether.The smell of blood tempted her sense of smell.She got into the baby's swaddling clothes and took him away.No one knows how she took the child away under the guardianship of adults.But she did—until 1,000 years later, the Huguang area still retained the habit of not drying baby clothes in the sun.  The book "Ling Biao Yi Lu", which records the strange animals in the south, records another way for the nocturnal wanderer to capture the child: after sneaking into the child's swaddle, she hooked the baby's fontanel with her claws, and licked the oozing blood.While the blood flowed out, the child's soul was also eaten by her.The hook star is named, thus derived.
