According to legend, there is a very magical spell circulating among the people, called "Guo Yin", which means that the soul of the living can be sent to the Underworld to communicate with the deceased, and the soul must be called back within a certain period of time, otherwise it will never come back. This is a true story that happened in Nanshanxia Village, Longyan City, Fujian Province. On this day, the old lady Cui in the village led her grandson Li Zongping to the neighboring village of Dongba Village. Because Li Zongping's complexion was very bad in recent days, and he often had nightmares and couldn't sleep well at night, the grandmother thought that the child must be entangled by something, so she brought him to see. There is a very famous witch in Dongba Village. Generally, if there is something at home, people from the village and outside the village will come to her. After arriving at the witch's house, Grandma Cui put down the gift and told the witch the purpose of this trip. But before Grandma Cui opened her mouth, the witch seemed to see something and directly told their purpose, saying that Li Zongping had a heavy yin energy. Seeing this, Grandma Cui didn't beat around the bush and told the witch what the child had experienced in the past few days. It turned out that Li Zongping had trouble sleeping at night these few days, and was always awakened by the same nightmare. Every time he fell asleep, he would dream of a pale old man standing in front of his bed and staring at him. The old man looked vague, and he only said something to Li Zongping, gesticulating with his hands and feet, which was very scary, but the more he couldn't understand, the old man would appear by his bed every night when he fell asleep, making Li Zongping unable to sleep well every night. Li Zongping told his grandmother that the figure of the man was very similar to his deceased grandfather, but because Li Zongping was only three years old when his grandfather was alive, and the old man in the dream was very vague, he was not sure. When the witch heard this, she seemed to understand something, and told Grandma Cui to give the child a ghost and let the child go to Underworld to have a look.
Grandma Cui was shocked when she heard this. The child was so young. If something happened to her, how could she explain to her parents? But the witch said firmly that it was because the child's little Yin body was better. Helplessly, Grandma Cui agreed with worry. The witch prepared a lot of things, including meat, roast chicken, and some talismans, saying that they were used to thank the ghosts who led the way. Then the witch lit a stick of incense and started the Yin ceremony. She asked Li Zongping to sit cross-legged on the table, put the offerings around, and began to worship around the table, saying something in her mouth. At first, Li Zongping was very dishonest, but as the witch kept chanting, he began to calm down and his body began to shake left and right unconsciously. Finally, the witch shouted, and Li Zongping suddenly seemed to have his soul taken away, and there was no breath of a living person on his body. His head lowered, as if he was asleep, which was very strange. The witch lit another stick of incense and put it in the incense burner, saying that the child could only stay there for this long. If the incense was burned out and his soul was not called back, he would be trapped in Underworld and would never come back. About 20 minutes later, the incense was almost burned out, and Grandma Cui's patience reached its limit. Then the witch took out a bell, saying it was a soul-calling bell, and kept shaking it in front of Li Zongping. With the spell and the ringing of the bell, a magical scene happened. Li Zongping slowly opened his eyes and looked much better. The first sentence he said was that he had just seen his grandfather.
Li Zongping said that he seemed to have fallen asleep just now, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw a foggy passage in front of him. There was a figure in the passage leading him in front. He couldn't help but follow the figure, and soon the figure disappeared. Then he saw a white entrance, and then the grandfather appeared at the exit, as if he had been waiting for him. Grandpa was very kind to Li Zongping, touched his head and said a lot to him. He told Li Zongping that he was leaving, and asked grandma not to burn paper and buy offerings for him in the future, and asked grandma to take good care of her body. He was leaving. Li Zongping didn't quite understand, he looked around and found that there was a lot of thick fog around, and it seemed that he could vaguely see the place where grandpa settled over there. Later, the witch analyzed that it must be that the child's grandfather was about to reincarnate, and he must have come back to see his grandson and say goodbye to his family. Since then, Li Zongping has never dreamed of his grandfather again, maybe his grandfather is really gone. Although Grandma Cui knew that he had been reincarnated, she would visit him every year on his death anniversary and festivals, bringing a lot of offerings and paper money. After all, she still missed him in her heart.
