Don’t Touch the Duck Eggs Before the Rooster Crows

What attracts me most about this story is that it makes folk taboos both familiar and unfamiliar. Eggs, roosters, and duck eggs are all ordinary things, but after being put into the story, everything seems to be stained with yin. The plot does not advance by simply scaring people, but constantly reveals the old events in the village and the secrets between the characters. The further you look behind you, the more you feel the sense of inescapable fate. After reading it, I kept feeling nervous, especially at night, as I always felt like something would roll gently outside the door. After reading it, I went back and read a few more chapters, only to realize that the author had already buried clues in the details. Eggs protect the sun, roosters announce the dawn, and duck eggs attract the yin. It seems that they are just folklore, but in fact, each of them is related to the village's old debts and human lives. The most amazing thing is that the fear does not disappear after the story ends, but will slowly ferment in the mind. Now whenever I hear something rolling outside the door at night, I will subconsciously think of that duck egg.
