Reveal: What happened to the zombie incident in Guangxi in 1872 during the Qing Dynasty?
I think most people "love" zombies and always talk about zombie incidents, even if they know they are fake but still enjoy it. This shows that humans are very curious about mysterious and unknown things, which is actually a good thing. Curiosity is an essential factor in promoting human development!
There is a widespread zombie attack incident that has been circulating on the Internet. It is said that in 1872 during the Qing Dynasty, more than 20 people in a minority village in Pingxiang County, Guangxi (now Pingxiang City, a county-level city, close to the border with Vietnam) were attacked and killed by zombies. This incident often appears in posts similar to "China's Top 100 Supernatural Events", usually just "Zombie Attacks in Guangxi in 1872 during the Qing Dynasty", which is just one sentence without details. So we will be curious, what is this? I searched for some information and finally came up with an outline.
What happened is this:
One day in July 1872, three people died in a village in Pingxiang County under mysterious circumstances. One person died, and three more died. This was no small matter, so he quickly informed the government. The government came and conducted an autopsy on the corpse. After a long period of examination, they came to a shocking conclusion - it was not caused by humans!
People at that time were very superstitious. Since it was not caused by humans, it must be monsters. And seeing that these three people died very strangely, and their bodies were bitten to pieces, I became even more convinced that it was the work of monsters and monsters. The government also invited several wizards from all over the country to collect the demons. The wizards worked here and there for a long time but didn't receive the demon, so they gave up.
However, this matter is not over yet, an even greater disaster is approaching!
A few days later, it was a bright moonlit night with few stars. The moon was very round and bright, illuminating the earth as if it were daytime. People were sleeping, and suddenly a group of zombies rushed into the village, biting any living thing they saw, including chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, cats, and even people! But it is said that these zombies do not jump like in zombie movies. They are more like zombies in Western zombie movies, but they are quite fast (could they be advanced mutant zombies?). The old, weak, sick and disabled people in the village ran slowly, and as a result, 18 people were bitten to death!
As soon as this incident came out, the government was even more shocked. A large team of troops were sent into the village, and a 30-kilometer radius around the village was cordoned off. Then they burned the mountain and burned the entire area...
So where did these zombies come from?
The legend is even more magical. It is said that before the zombie incident broke out, a batch of Tsarist Russian goods entered a port in Guangxi. A coolie accidentally knocked over a box of goods during transportation, and a metal cup fell out of it. The coolie thought that this thing should be worth some money, so he quietly took it for himself. But he died inexplicably after taking it home. It seemed that the metal cup had some kind of mysterious curse. People connected these two things and felt that there must be something wrong with the shipment from Tsarist Russia.
Don’t look at what we are talking about here is quite lively. In fact, zombie incidents and Tsarist Russian goods are limited to legends, and there are no definite records.
Some people now believe that the Tsarist Russian cargo should be similar to a "biochemical virus" or some kind of radioactive substance. This is probably because I have watched too many zombie movies, because there is no evidence that biochemical viruses and radioactive substances can cause zombies. That is what zombie movies say.
I think this is probably a misunderstanding. Could it be that he has rabies and bites people, or is he just a lunatic? Many lunatics like to bite people. Just like the so-called Chengdu zombie incident in 1995, it was rumored to be real, but it was actually a rabid person who bit several people. Later, rumors spread that zombies had killed several people.
But having said that, we should still have some awe for some mysterious events, whether you believe it or not. I have seen a real thing with my own eyes. It was many years ago that there was a family in my hometown who had always been unlucky. First, the married daughter got sick and went crazy, then the wife was hit by a car and died, and then the male owner broke his leg on the construction site.
A Feng Shui master told him that there was something wrong with his father's tomb, which caused trouble in his family. What can I do? The Feng Shui master said that the grave must be moved, otherwise something might happen.
So I really decided to move the grave. When I opened the tomb, I saw that the wood of the coffin was almost rotten, but the body was not rotten and had white hair on it! And it’s very long white hair, as long as a finger! That white hair is not real white hair, it is white hair like that moldy thing. I wonder if I say this, do you understand what I mean?
The Feng Shui master said with a stern face that he had to burn it, otherwise it would be useless to move the grave. Not to mention the stern look on Mr. Feng Shui's face, everyone present had a look of fear and did not dare to express their anger. You must know that they have been dead for almost 20 years and have not yet rotted! According to what our hometown says, those people have become goblins!
After burning it and moving the grave, their family seems to be really well now, at least they haven’t heard of anything happening again. Although the male owner is lame, he is doing some small business and living a good life.
Although I still don’t think there is any causal relationship between the accident in his family and the moving of the grave, the white hair of the corpse still makes me feel in awe. Therefore, I say that it is not important to believe in those mysterious events. What is important is to have a sense of awe and not to arbitrarily accuse those who believe in them as being uneducated and ignorant of science.
