Japanese myths and legends: Snow Girl:
According to legend, in the early days of the Republic of Japan, due to the ignorance of the people, the older generation especially believed in some legends of monsters, and even thought that natural disasters were controlled by monsters, so there was the legend of Snow Girl, a mystery in the snow. As long as someone gets lost in the harsh environment of ice and snow, they will certainly meet the monster of Snow Girl, who is unpredictable in good and evil, and will deliberately play with men's fickle and disloyal nature. Sometimes she deliberately leaves a frightened human male and threatens him. If she wants to survive, she must keep her promise and abide by the laws of the underworld, and must not tell others about her existence and retreat? I'm sorry, otherwise the betrayed snow girl will definitely take that person's life to warn the black magic. But the man who wants to live will win the trust of Snow Girl in panic, and promise to keep his promise when he goes back and not tell others what Snow Girl has done. The evil woman Xuenv, who likes to test men's nature, will pretend to be an ordinary and virtuous human woman, deliberately find the man who made a promise with her, win the man's good feeling, and further tie the knot with him, give birth to a child with her and follow her for life. Monitor whether the man can keep his promise and live the rest of his life in peace with her, but the thrilling experience of Huan Wu Y always haunts the man's doubts and fears. Finally, until one day, the man made up his mind to tell his closest wife the truth about meeting Snow Girl, hoping that she could share his nightmare, but the man never imagined that in his midnight dream, the person next to him was his most feared dream. It turns out that he has been with the enemy for a long time. Prison p The man who gave birth to his child sadly took the child back to the world of ice and snow. This ancient legend of Snow Girl first appeared in the Japanese monster novel Koizumi Yakumo's Mysterious Tales. It fully describes the ruthless characteristics of monsters, and reflects the marriage between men and women who are also intimately divorced, as well as the delicate and affectionate amorous feelings of women. Although this ancient legend is sad, it is full of KB's vigilance against mysterious anecdotes. The ancient moral concept of "about promises, we must abide by them" is deeply rooted in people's hearts. There is also a legend that Snow Girl will ask the traveler to help look after the children in her arms on the snowy Yuan Ye, if she agrees. . . .
Riverside boy:
Yanagita Kunio, a Japanese folklorist, once wrote an article about introducing a river boy pony (the legend of a river boy pulling a horse into the river) in Tan Ji, saying that it looks like a blue-black monkey with legs like duck feet and a concave head like a dish. No matter in the water or on the land, as long as the water in the plate does not dry up, fighting with people or horses will produce infinite power, so there is a Japanese proverb to describe catastrophe. The river boy looks a bit like a human, but he has webbed hands and feet, and he is quite good at swimming. In addition, the river boy has a turtle shell on his back, and his skin is covered with slippery and transparent mucus, just like amphibians. The head of a river boy is disc-shaped. It is said that once this part of the skin dries, the river children will die, so most of them are not near the water. Although there are rumors of the river boy haunting all over Japan, the legend of the river boy in Biwa Lake is the earliest and most orthodox, and even the mummy of the river boy is hidden in the nearby Antu Temple. It is said that there are all kinds of river children living in Pipa Lake, some of whom drown many innocent people every year. These naughty river boys will hide in the water and take the opportunity to scratch people's feet. After pulling people into the water, they will eat some internal organs. So everyone must be careful when they are near the water on the mountain. In case they meet a river boy, dry the water in the water tray above his head.
Blue light:
Specifically, it is not a monster, but a storytelling behavior like decameron: most Japanese mysterious stories also take place on summer nights. Many stories of kabuki, a traditional Japanese drama, originated from legends in mysterious stories. During the Edo period (equivalent to 1603- 1867), there was a game called "Hundred Stories". Several friends got together in the middle of the night and lit many candles. Everyone took turns telling ghost stories and felt the atmosphere of KB. It is said that when the hundredth candle goes out, the real ghost will appear ... so storytellers often have a kind of vigilance in their hearts. When it's their turn to tell a story, don't be the last one, because they don't know what will happen after the hundredth story is finished. So every time I talk about the ninety-ninth, I will stop at once, and no one dares to go on. This is a ritual of collectively summoning ghosts. Asai, the author of the Edo era, recorded the origin and play of the "Hundred Stories" in detail, briefly as follows: Before the "Hundred Stories" game, all participants were dressed in Tsing Yi and gathered in the same dark room. In the room next to this darkroom, we prepared a blue paper thread lamp, filled it with oil, and then lit one hundred wicks side by side. There will be a Xiao Mu table with a mirror on it next to the lantern. Everyone takes turns to finish a mysterious story, and then they have to leave their seats in the dark, go to the lighted room next door, and blow out a wick. Then, take a look at your face in the mirror and go back to the original darkroom, and then change people. In the process of blowing out the wick, they continued to tell the mysterious story until the 99th mysterious story was finished, leaving the last wick to be lit. Then everyone continued to sit around and wait for dawn, until the sun came out, and then they dismissed and went home. Many people don't understand why the mysterious story always ends when it comes to the 99th story, because people at that time were superstitious. If you get to the hundredth mysterious story, something strange will happen, so no one dares to touch this taboo. With the changes of the times, lanterns are replaced by candles, and the new rules of the game are that the last candle must be blown out. The game of hundred stories has become a KB story of a mysterious meeting. I heard that something really strange happened when the last candle was blown out. "Painting Hundreds of Ghosts at Night" includes "Blue Lantern" painted by Shiyan Bird Mountain, which depicts the scene of hundreds of stories at that time. When the blue light is about to blow out, many interesting monster stories are being told by a group of people, and some people record them in words. This is the origin of the monster story. Hehe, if you want to play this game in the future, don't tell the hundredth ghost story, and it will become true then!
Nida tiger:
Nitianfang is a legendary monster in Fukui Prefecture. According to local residents, when you pass the field alone in the middle of the night, you often suddenly find a black shadow standing in the middle of the field. This shadow will keep shouting "give me back my field!" " Throw mud at people. This is Nitianfang. Ni Tianfang is a monster with only one eye, not the patron saint of farmland, but the formation of some farmers who starved to death because of land occupation. It is said that the mud thrown head-on stinks; Once unfortunately lost, the smell will last for about 3 days and cannot fade.
Ghosts and monsters:
The earth ghost (also called), as its name implies, is a combined monster of ghosts and gods. Some of them sleep at the bottom of the sea during the day and sneak up on others at night. Some of them live in the mountains. There is a ghostly hand bone in Guannong Temple in Tanakamaru, Fuyu County, Fukuoka Prefecture. According to heian period's later period, the then owner Jin said, "This was achieved by driving out the ghosts and monsters that disturbed the village." The most famous legend of defeating ghosts and monsters is Genxiang Temple in Takamatsu City, Kochi Prefecture. The legendary ghosts and monsters not only have horns on their heads, but also face like a monkey, body like a tiger, hands and feet like cows, and wings like bats under their arms. In Genxiang Temple, there is still a ghostly horn, which is made public every year on June 28th of the lunar calendar. In addition, in order to commemorate this legend, China also set up a ghostly elephant, which looks like a dragon in western mythology. Legend has it that the first generation general of the Kamakura shogunate, Yuanlaichao, had seen this monster when he was ill. He became a mage and wanted to get close to the general. Yuan Laichao is a man blessed by the gods. He drew his sword in the confusion and cut at the monster. Later, he found the cave with the help of blood. It's dead! That ghost-killing knife is called knee cutting or ghost pill from now on.
Swallow the boy's wine:
About the life experience of the boy who swallowed wine, novels such as Yu Jia Cao Zi all recorded that he was a young monk born in Vietnam. Because of his handsome appearance, he attracted jealousy, and because of many evil thoughts, he turned into a ghost. In addition, there is a saying that "Jingshan Mingshen (actually Yan Mo) is the son of Ji Jun, a nearby ethnic minority". According to the previous legend, the boy who swallowed wine was later driven out of the temple by a monk who realized his evil thoughts, thus ending his childhood life. There is also a saying that a teenager who swallowed wine and drank was also a teenager who was killed by General Yuan, and his sabre was called boy beheading. Because of this strange origin, the ceremony of boy beheading and famous sword is also called "the five swords in the world". In 990, the Heian Dynasty was a famous monster that shocked Kyoto. Legend has it that a drunken boy who lives in Danbo land is entangled with a group of evil spirits. They do evil, build iron palaces privately, sneak into rich people's homes at night to steal treasures and feed on women and children. Such a thing shocked even the emperor. However, something even more terrible happened. Ikeda Yan Na's daughter is missing. The result of divination by Yin and Yang master was captured by the ghost of Dajiangshan.
Ghost of rashomon:
Also known as the capital of Ibaraki, Star Bear Boy and Wine Swallowing Boy are all evil spirits living in the mountains, and Wine Swallowing Boy is their ghost king. To this day, there is still a monument with the theme of ghosts in Dajiangshan, Japan. The boy who swallowed wine on the monument pointed to the capital very vividly, and Ibaraki Jidu and the boy named Xiong Xing stood by and commanded. It seems to have the meaning of warning the world. There are many interesting legends about Ibaraki Strategy. In the famous folk song Rashomon and Kabuki Eight Bridges, it is called "Ghost of Rashomon". Of course, the human protagonist this time is Watanabe, one of the four great kings of Guang Lai. Genji Tada Zhong Man's two knives, which protect the world, are called cutting the knee and cutting the mustache. The origin of the name of the knife is said to be that when attacking, one knife attacks the knee and one knife attacks the other. General Guang Lai gave one of the "Bamboo Deeds" to Watanabe, one of the four heavenly kings. One day, Takeshi Watanabe came home and walked on a bridge. Suddenly she saw a beautiful woman wandering alone. When I inquired, I found that he had recently moved to Beijing and lived in five mansions. Being unfamiliar with this road, I hesitated. Seeing that it was getting late, Watanabe helped the woman get on the horse, and the two rode away to the five houses. In fact, this woman is the embodiment of Ibaraki, the boy who swallowed wine. She showed her true colors at Wudao Ferry. Just as she grabbed Watanabe and tried to kill him, she cut off her wrist in an instant, and the painful Ibaraki plan flew to Mount Aituo. It was strange to draw the outline of Watanabe with only three fingers and wrists, so I told Guang Lai and Abe Harumi about it. Watanabe dedicated the broken arm to Yuan, who deified Abe Harumi. The conclusion is that "crossing the border must avoid things for seven days", and within seven days, ghosts and gods will come and take their arms and go. So Watanabe deliberately put the broken hand in an iron box for safekeeping. Six days later, on the sixth night, Watanabe's foster mother visited and Watanabe welcomed her into the house for entertainment. The foster mother said she wanted to see the ghost's wrist. So he took out the ghost's wrist, and his foster mother looked at it carefully for a long time, and then suddenly shouted, "This is my wrist!" " "Then he ran away from the window. There are many versions of this legend, but the plot of being cut by a moustache and being tricked back by a monster incarnate foster mother is the same. Because this legend has always been called "ghost scissors". As for the life experience of Ibaraki Jidu, he is usually regarded as an abandoned child. According to legend, his parents are Tsutsumu. Because the mother was pregnant for more than 16 months, Ibaraki was called "the devil" from birth and was hated by everyone. Later, he was adopted by the barber shop owner. After a few years, he grew into an adult's physique. Once, when he was working, he accidentally scratched a guest's scalp and bled out. Ibaraki sticks out his tongue and licks it, but it is especially sweet-for this reason, he is naturally spurned by everyone. Finally, one night, he found that his reflection in the water mirror was ghostly, so he listened to the call of fate, abandoned the world and returned to Tuoba Mountain. There is another saying: he has a scary face, but he is a god. He is a monster guarding the gate, but occasionally he plays pranks and scares people to death. They guard the door not for human beings, but to guide those ghosts who have strayed into human settlements to the right path.
Fox:
The legend of the fox is widely circulated in the land of the East. Needless to say, China's Kyubi no Youko fox da ji, even in Japan, has such an enchanting fox as "Tamamo no Mae". Some young, beautiful and attractive women are often called "foxes", which is actually an alternative representation of ancient women's lust. Tamamo no Mae's story: Tamamo no Mae, a talented woman favored by the emperor's bird feathers, is charming and touching, and captures the essence of the emperor, making her ill in bed. Later, Yin and Yang teacher Abe Tae-sung saw that she was a thousand-year-old fox in Tianzhu, and she was subdued with one move. As a result, the fox's resentment turned into a killing stone, and everyone who accidentally met would die. Only through chanting, transcendence and resentment can a monk become a Buddha.
Ge Ye:
The story of Ge Ye, the mother of the famous teacher of Yin and Yang, Abe Harumi, records the sad story that the incarnation of the white fox met Enigmatic's father and left without saying goodbye after giving birth to a mystery for six years. But is this really the case? According to the record in Xintai Wife, in fact, Abe's father, Abe Cai Yi, should have married a street performer with low status. With the legend of Ge Ye, the white fox, Abe's position in people's minds has been consolidated. Of course, the so-called killer in reality is not the incarnation of the fox. Chromogenic stone is a poisonous stone on the mountain in Nasu Town, Tochigi Prefecture, Japan. No matter whether it is a bug or a bird, once it touches this stone, it will soon die. This poisonous stone can kill living things. According to scientists, this toxic stone is mostly near the crater. It is toxic because it is impregnated with sulfurous acid and hydrogen sulfide gas emitted by the volcano. Some temples removed it and placed it as a sacred object.
Tengu:
Tengu is one of the most famous monsters in Japan. In Shan Hai Jing, it is written that Tengu is an animal like a fox. In Japan, it is called Tengu (a fox living in the sky). Tengu has a big red face, a high nose, a bit like a long-nosed ape, with a round fan in his hand, and is very tall. Living in the deep mountains, with divine power and super power, has the power to make human beings feel KB. There are a pair of wings behind them, which can fly freely in the sky and have the power to tear human beings to pieces. With a flick of the fan in your hand, many big trees can be uprooted, and its power can be seen. Heaven and earth are omnipotent. Up to now, the statue of Tiangou is still enshrined in the pommel horse temple. It is said that Tiangou will kidnap people who get lost in the forest, so the ancients called the kidnapped child "Shen Yin", which was hidden by the gods as its name implies. The legend of Tiangou was later integrated into the religions believed by mountain gods (Tiantai Sect and Tanya Tantric Sect). The picture scroll of the workshop in Kamakura era depicts the scene of Tengu fighting with Tiantai Sect monks and losing. Actions are like gestures, which are quite interesting. It is said that in this story, the Tengu Legion from China came to ask the Japanese Tengu for help, but the Japanese Tengu assumed an arrogant posture, which is called "self-slowness" and "high nose" in Japanese. Therefore, in ancient times, the tengu with the eagle as its main image became a tengu with a high nose in the late Middle Ages, and it is said that those mountain monks who are immature in practice and arrogant will become tengu after their death. Later generations even said that the appearance of Tiangou would lead to chaos in the world. It is still a mystery whether the mountain monks who caused all kinds of strange phenomena are related to the legend of Tiangou.
Here comes the cat again:
A kind of cat demon, which is said to have two tails and can walk upright. The first speech in the Japanese paranormal tells the story that the fetus born after the death of a cat becomes a human. The cat demon is an elderly cat. It usually appears as an old woman, about twice the size of human beings. The big cat demon can even grow to the size of a calf, and its tail ends are forked in two. Chinese characters are written as "cat stock" or "cat again", which means "cat demon" or "cat monster". So in order to prevent the old cat from becoming a cat demon, the tail of the young cat was cut off, leaving only a short one. This way, I am not afraid that the cat's tail will split and become a cat demon at home. The cat demon with terrible magic will speak with human voice before breakfast, and sometimes after eating a person, it will turn into this person's body to find the next prey. Usually, the cat demon only attacks people it hates, but if it meets a cat essence with a fiercer temperament and more cruel means, it will hurt anyone indiscriminately when it sees people. Legend has it that good cats and demons often become girls to get close to human beings. Of course, they are very docile. They like to eat fish on weekdays, are light and dependent on humans, but they are often hurt. Cats, raccoons and foxes are all animals with extraordinary abilities in Japanese legends.
808 raccoons:
Beavers living in Shikoku have relatively large heads; It is said that he has a large number of "raccoons" under his command, aiming at defending the territory of the four kingdoms against the fox army. Since a long time ago, raccoons have always given people the impression that they are easy to get close to and get along very well with people living in the mountains. In some places, raccoons, like foxes, are regarded as gods by the Japanese, but raccoons seem to be more popular than foxes, probably because they are very lovable because of their characteristics similar to dark circles. Therefore, in many folk stories, the role played by raccoons is always humorous and has the wisdom of improvisation. It is really different from the cunning fox who is good at cheating, which is also the difference between the two animals in people's minds. However, raccoons are not just pranks. Some raccoons who have been helped by human beings, in order to repay their kindness, will become women to sell teapots or horses and thank their benefactors with the income they earn (there are also stories similar to the fox's gratitude). Whether it is repaying kindness or making trouble, it will eventually be seen through by human beings. This is the interesting thing about raccoons. Beavers often show some behaviors that make everyone laugh, such as making their own fires, making all kinds of strange noises, stealing wine brewed by ordinary people, lying on their back drunk and sleeping soundly. It can be seen that raccoons are rare and lovely monsters in Japanese legends. According to Japanese legend, raccoons have never hurt humans.
Grandma Viper:
Grandma Viper often appears near Nengdeng Peninsula in Ishikawa Prefecture on snowy nights. Legend has it that Grandma Viper has no color in her face and always appears in a white kimono, with a big umbrella on her head and a cane and hip flask in her hand. A woman who doesn't wear makeup happens to meet grandma viper on the road, and grandma will use viper (white honey powder? ) to draw a woman's face. It is a "kind" monster who carries out women's love of beauty.
Wash red bean mother-in-law:
There is a strange mother-in-law in the countryside. Some people call her "washing red beans", "sieving red beans", "grinding red beans" or "grinding rice". According to different places, there are different names. But one thing in common is that you will hear brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush brush. Basically, you can't see her face, only hear her voice. Someone has seen her, and she looks like an old woman from the back. This statement has been circulated to this day. She won't come out to harm people, but someone once accidentally fell into the river to confirm her appearance. In Shinetsu, Kanto, Japan, there is a saying that the strange mother-in-law catches people and sifts them with a sieve to eat: "The beans grind to eat, and people grind to eat ..." This nursery rhyme has also been handed down.
Call:
Nothing is also called "Shan Yan", and both of them have the meaning of echo in Japanese. Nothing is a little devil with one eye and one foot, always wearing a big hemp fiber; Nothing is very shy. When he is accidentally found, he will clumsily jump down with his thin little feet. Nothing likes playing tricks on echoes, so if there are no echoes or different echoes in the mountains of Japan, it is nothing but work.
Bone girl:
First seen in Koizumi Yakumo's works. There is a man named Shiro. Because I can't stand the poor life, I divorced my wife, married a rich and powerful lady and became an official. But the new life is getting more and more boring for Shiro. He misses his good wife who weaves at home all day. One night a year later, Shiro came home, and his wife didn't mean to blame him at all. Shiro woke up the next morning and found a black-haired skull lying beside him. The legend originally called "reconciliation" probably has the sigh that beauty is easy to get old.
The clown's daughter:
A kind of ghost originated from the album "Painting the Past and the Present, Continuing Hundreds of Ghosts" of Shiyan Bird Mountain. Formerly known as "Qiu Shi Shen", it means to pay homage to Qiu Shi. It is recorded in the book that at the third moment of ugliness (especially in the dark moonless night), a woman hangs a mirror on her chest and lights three candles on her head, and she will walk to a big tree (or fir tree) near the shrine and nail the cursed grass man to it. Of course, you can't be seen doing such a thing. If you are seen, your strength will be weakened, and sometimes you will hurt yourself. In fact, it is a curse of both sides. It is said that people who cast spells will go crazy easily. "Ugly girl" is the ghost of a woman full of jealousy and resentment. This woman became a ghost because she lost her virginity and was abandoned. Usually, ordinary ghosts will become translucent or white, but spectre will appear red in appearance. Therefore, it is widely rumored in Japan that "ugly girls" usually wear red clothes. A beautiful woman can easily arouse her strong jealousy, and she will use the art of swearing to impose misfortune on this woman. Therefore, if you meet an "ugly girl", you'd better not go near her to avoid getting into trouble. It is said that the "ugly girl" is formally dressed in white, with a bronze mirror on her chest, a wooden comb in her mouth, a cast iron ring on her head, three candles (representing feelings, hatred and resentment), a hammer in one hand and a five-inch nail in the other, and casts spells at midnight. Therefore, it is terrible to be disgusted by women.
Daocheng Temple Clock:
Originally seen in Lu Jing Zi Niang Dao Cheng Temple, it is one of the most famous plays in Changbai Dance Drama. It is also a repertoire often used in human-shaped clear glass opera (that is, puppet show). This story tells the story of people celebrating the completion of the newly cast clock in Chengsi Temple. A beautiful woman put on a dance dress and danced for the monks in the temple in the traditional "Eboshi", showing her charming feelings. While dancing, the giant clock fell, and everyone found the monk An Zhen hiding in it. It turned out that he had promised to marry Qing Ji, but he broke his word. Qing Ji was hurt, resentful, and turned into a snake, wrapped around the clock, and even the man and the clock were burned. Hatred is ultimately mutually assured destruction. Kihachiro Kawamoto, a famous Japanese animator, once wrote a story about his wife's dissatisfaction based on this. You might as well have a look. Later generations often regard the Taoist bell as a symbol of girls' love for spring.
Prajna:
Prajna is not the wisdom in Buddhism, but a kind of monster in Japanese legend, or a kind of resentment. It is said that it is an evil spirit formed by women's strong jealousy and resentment. Prajna paramita lives in the mountains and eats people at midnight. She is a female ghost who specializes in robbing children. Besides, she will give a creepy and terrible laugh. The famous Japanese hero, Guang Yuan, is a nobleman in heian period. He has fine features and loves many women. According to the custom of that era, emperors and nobles not only married wives, but also married many wing houses. The heroine's name is "Royal Six Restaurant". She used to live a good life as a crown princess, but later she lost her husband and fell in love with Guangyuan. However, Guangyuan soon showed coldness to her, so she was very upset and began to envy "Kwai Shang" and "Kwai Shang" as Guangyuan's wives.
Long-haired girl:
In the middle of the night, there is often a beautifully dressed woman standing on a deserted street. If a passerby asks, "What are you doing so late?" Long-haired women will turn their heads, their whole faces are black, and their five senses can't see clearly! When people found out that it was a terrible hairy girl who tried to escape in a panic, hairy girl stretched her hair, wrapped it around the neck of the person who was about to escape and strangled him. ...
Hungry ghost:
Because of his past sins, he became a hungry ghost. His mouth was too small to eat. Don't think that he is full because of his big stomach, which is caused by malnutrition, but they are very hungry! There are many kinds of hungry ghosts, some spit out flames, some spit out what they have eaten, some eat shit, some eat dead meat, some can't eat anything, and so on. They are often pecked off by vultures and eaten with their stomachs.
Birds caught:
Goose bird (also called female bird directly) is described in Xuanzhong Book: "Goose bird can gather people's spirits, and now people regard it as a wet bird, also called ghost bird …". "But certainly not compared with the nine-headed bird that incited ChuFeng. According to scholars' research, in ancient China, the words "nine" and "ghost" were universal. This big bird with nine faces has a clumsy gait because its head looks left and right. It is said that it is very similar to the gait of a duck, and it also incorporates some strange expressions. It haunts the back garden of the palace and brings disaster to the tyrannical rule. First, it is amazing to drop blood to reduce disasters. Liu Yao, a Tang Dynasty man, wrote in "The Record of Different Ridges": "Ghost cars, between spring and summer, fly away when they encounter a little gloomy clouds. There are many outside the ridge. It is amazing to love others. It's still outside the cloud nine, one of them was bitten by a dog, and the home of blood drops is fierce. " Second, order bloody clothes and take care of the children. "The Story of the Sky" said: "If a bird catches it, it can collect people's spirit. Today, people are like a cloud of suckling birds. It is said that it was caused by maternal death. You can take a man's son as your own. There are two breasts on the chest, and if there is a boy's home, blood is on his clothes. Now people don't want to show their clothes, which is why. " Third, the image is ugly and the temperament is fierce. Unofficial history in Qidong, a masterpiece of meticulous brushwork in the Song Dynasty, said: "The body is round like a dustpan, with ten clusters, and nine heads, one of which is unique, but dripping with blood. As the world says, every cluster has two wings. When flying, the eighteen wings were actually moving, and they were not used to each other, so there was a battle for breaking. " (neck) In addition, it is said that it also likes people's nails to know people's fortune. Anyone who has a disaster will lie down on the house and sing ("Lingyi" volume). The ancient bird is a legendary monster from China, sometimes appearing in the form of nine heads.
Two women:
There are monsters in famous folk stories. The mouth is said to be on the top of the head, but it is correct to grow near the back of the neck. This mouth is bigger than the front one and can eat several times the weight. Usually, the mouth is covered with hair. When no one is around, if there is food in front, it will use its hair as a tentacle and eat the food. There is a legend in Chiba that tells the story of a stepmother who killed his ex-wife's son and became such a monster. In this story, the stepmother's vicious heart killed the child, so the child became a monster because of her resentment.
Human Sparrow: Legend has it that a bird lays eggs on people. The eggs of this bird are smaller than human pores. It eats human internal organs as food when it is born, and finally flies out of the human body when it is empty. This is the sparrow inside. In addition, there is a saying that people grow into finches and are considered monsters.
Flying demon: a monster with a beautiful face, specializing in absorbing the essence of men. It is said that it is caused by the resentment of female prisoners.
