For people born in the 1980s and 1990s, their family members will tell stories about their origins. Almost every young person in the town has a legend about their birth.
The east end of the town is open, and there are gusts of sinister wind when it is born. The magicians say that the child is attracted by ghosts at birth and will not survive more than seven days.
I heard from the old people in the town that when I was born, there were strange things in the sky, and even the old wells were filled with blood. This is a very ominous sign. This child will kill many people.
But my mother is a well-known fairy lady in the town. She can ward off ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, summon souls and attract immortals, seal bans with paper, and extend life and harm souls. But my mother was afraid of scaring me and never let me touch her paper man. She just said that when the time came, I would touch it even if I didn't.
