Two years ago, my husband and I traveled to mainland China. The last day
in Beijing, I visited an old jade market to find some antiques, but there
was nothing to buy. Suddenly and old man called me and put a jade bracelet
on my wrist. "Hi, I don't want to buy it." "I have been looking for you
for 2000 years, you are the owner of the jade." "Me? No, No, I am poor. I
can't afford it. Honey, please help me, the..." The old man
disappeared. "So crazy, oh, it's so expensive" But strangely, every time
when I wore it, I felt dizzy and saw another me with long hair dancing and
singing in a big. luxurious palace, I told my husband this strange
situation, he always answered me, "My sweetheart, I promise, we will have
a house as big as a palace, you can live there dancing and singing all the
day. But now please let me sleep, OK?" "OK." I thought I was too tired.
Day by day, I forgot it.
This year, my husband got an invitation form the palace museum, because
there was an important exhibition about 馬王堆. It's a grave of a king, a
queen and a prince of Han Dynasty. They hoped my husband to help them
before the opening ceremony. Of course we wanted to go, because we were
interested in Chinese history. The day, we drove to Taipei, ate dinner
with them. After a long boring meeting, finally we stepped into the museum
at 1:30, the very early morning of September 21st. I was tired but
excited. Step by step, I felt dizzy again, every stuff looked so similar.
When I saw the dead body of the queen, she suddenly stood up and shouted
to me, "You son of the B----Beauty, I find you, I find you..." "Me? No..."
Yes, I remember, I remember everything. In my last life I was one of
the wives of the king, he loved me more than any women. One day, he gave
me this jade bracelet. I was so happy, but the queen was so jealous, so
angry and choked to death by melon. Before she died, she shouted, "I'll
revenge. I'll revenge." Now, she was standing there and approaching
me. She raised her hands up...and down. Suddenly, the heavens were moving
and the ground was shaking. A Strong light shot form her eyes, "No, I
don't want to die, I don't want to die...." The light hit my bracelet and
reflected back. Bang! Everything stopped.
When opening my eyes, I was lying in my bed. God! Such a terrible dream! I
took the newspaper and read. God! Such a terrible dream! I took the
newspaper and read. God! Such a terrible earthquake! No...No...No one
knows what really happened. But I know it's all my fault.
