于七之亂，殺人如麻。鄉民李化龍，自山中竄歸。值大兵宵進，恐罹炎昆之禍，急無所匿，僵臥于死人之叢，詐作尸。兵過既盡，未敢遽出。忽見闕頭斷臂之尸，起立如林。內一尸斷首猶連肩上，口中作語曰：「野狗子來，奈何？」群尸參差而應曰：「奈何！」俄頃，蹶然盡倒，遂寂無聲。李方驚顫欲起，有一物來，獸首人身，伏嚙人首，遍吸其腦。李懼，匿首尸下。物來撥李肩，欲得李首。李力伏，俾不可得。物乃推覆尸而移之，首見。李大懼，手索腰下，得巨石如碗，握之。物俯身欲齕。李驟起，大呼，擊其首，中嘴。物嗥如鴟，掩口負痛而奔，吐血道上。就視之，于血中得二齒，中曲而端銳，長四寸余。懷歸以示人，皆不知其何物也。
於七之亂時，殺人如麻。鄉民李化龍從山裡逃回家，正碰上大軍趁夜行進。他怕受牽連而遭殺害，一時又無處躲藏，便直挺挺地躺在死人堆裡，裝成屍體。兵全部過去後，他還不敢馬上出來。忽然看見那些缺了頭、斷了胳膊的屍體紛紛站起來，像樹林一樣密集。其中一具屍體，頭雖已砍斷，卻還連在肩上，開口說：「野狗子來了，怎麼辦？」群屍亂紛紛地回答：「怎麼辦！」片刻間，它們突然全都倒下，再沒有一點聲音。李化龍正驚得發抖，想要起來，卻見一個東西來了，長著獸頭和人的身子，俯身啃咬死人的頭，把他們的腦子一一吸出來。李化龍害怕，把頭藏在屍體下面。那東西過來撥弄他的肩膀，想找到他的頭。他使勁伏著，不讓它找到。那東西便把蓋著他的屍體推開，移到一旁，他的頭露了出來。李化龍怕極了，伸手往腰下摸，摸到一塊碗大的石頭，握在手裡。那東西俯身要咬，他猛然跳起，大叫一聲，朝它的頭打去，打中了嘴。那東西叫得像貓頭鷹，捂著嘴，忍痛逃跑，一路吐血。李化龍過去檢視，在血裡找到兩顆牙，中間彎曲，尖端鋒利，長四寸多。他揣著帶回家給人看，誰也不知道是什麼東西的牙。

In the Yu Qi rebellion, people were cut down like hemp. A villager named Li Hualong was fleeing home from the mountains when the army came marching through by night. Fearing the fire that burns jade and stone alike, and with nowhere to hide in time, he lay stiff among the dead, pretending to be a corpse. The soldiers went by until the last of them was gone, but he did not dare come out at once. Suddenly he saw the corpses, headless, armless, rise and stand like a forest. One of them, whose severed head still hung on its shoulders, spoke: “The wild dog is coming. What can we do?” The corpses answered raggedly, “What can we do!” In a moment they all toppled over at once, and there was silence. Li, still shaking with fright, was about to get up when a creature came along with the head of a beast and the body of a man. It crouched to gnaw at the heads, sucking out the brains of one after another. Li, terrified, hid his head under a corpse. The creature came and pawed at Li’s shoulder, trying to get at his head. Li pressed himself down with all his strength so that it could not. Then the creature shoved aside the corpse that covered him, and his head was bare. In terror, Li groped by his waist, found a big stone the size of a bowl, and gripped it. The creature bent down to bite. Li sprang up with a great shout and struck at its head, hitting it in the mouth. The creature howled like an owl and ran, clutching its mouth in pain and spitting blood along the road. Li went to look, and in the blood he found two teeth, curved in the middle and sharp at the tip, more than four inches long. He carried them home in his robe and showed them to people, but no one knew what creature they came from.
