100 Tales of Horror
Sigh... Just finished watching a tv show on Channel 8 titled : 100 Tales of Horror.
The whole show is said to be comprised of 100 entirely different ghost stories, based on the folklore in Japan.
However, tonight's tale wasn't terrifying nor scary in any way. It was about a touching story of a mother's love...
As i had missed the beginning of the hour-long drama, I can only briefly summarise the story on what i have seen.
At a village in Japan, the villagers lived by a blasphemous rule; that all women above the age of 60 will have to be sent to the Valley of Hell where they will be left to die. (I have no idea about the origin of this rule so just read on...)
The main character's mother coincidentally reached the dreaded age, and his unfilial wife is pressing him to send her away. On the night before the evil deed, his wife even gave him a packet of rat poison, proposing that he use it on his own mother at the valley, so as to shorten her misery. Recoiling in horror, he tossed the poison away. However, his mother was awake then and had overheard the entire conversation.
The next morning, both mother and son left for the valley. On the way there, they reminisced of the times they had; his mother once shielded him from a falling tree and in the process, broke her own feet.
Upon reaching the Valley of Hell, the son started to cry and wasn't willing to return home. As the mother didn't want his son to face the consequences if he chooses to break the rule, she pushed him down the slope of the valley.
When he finally woke up from the fall, it was already dark. He started to panic as he didn't know the way home. He was frantically looking all around him when suddenly, he saw a line of clamshells littered on the ground neatly in a line. ( AKA Hanzel and Gretel style) He then realised that his mother had actually left these shells for him, while on their way up to the valley.
Regret overwhelmed him, and he quickly made his way back to his mother, and found her lying weakly at the place where he left her. He then carried her home where he hid her under the wooden floor planks.
At this point in time, there was a huge commotion in another part of the village. The Commander of the settlement had recieved an order from his General; it was to turn an ordinary wooden drum into one that could play music on its own. As no one in the village could handle the task, the Commander then seeked the main character for help, and threatened him with his life on completing the impossible task.
Soon after, his wife left him in fear for her own life, leaving the helpless guy to fend for himself. Seeing his plight, his mother conjured an idea in order to save him, which was to open up a small hole at the side of the drum, and then have hornets placed inside it.
A few days later, the Commander summoned the main character to him, and told him that the General had recieved the gift. But, on the night that he tested the drum, the hornets escaped and stung the General to death.
The Commander then added that because of this "tragic" accident, his own life was spared from death ( I dunno the full story, so pls dun ask me). As a result, he wanted to reward the main character heavily, and told him to ask for anything he wanted.
The main character then proceeded to reveal everything that he did for his mother, including breaking the rules to save her from the valley. He also said that he was willing to die for going against tradition, but his only wish was to allow his mother to live.
Back home, his wife suddenly returned to the house upon hearing about the reward his husband was getting. She found his mother in the house and then interrogated her for the location of his rewards. Seeing how evil the woman was, the mother told her about a stack of gold, located across the hills on the other side of a old wooden bridge.
Within an hour, the greedy wife eventually found the gold and dug it out. As she was carrying the treasure while crossing the bridge, the old bridge could not withstand the heavy load and gave way... Killing the wife instantly when she fell into the river.
The main character then returned home to his mother with free rice and salt, and then proceeded to cook porridge for his mother to eat. Sadly, the story then revealed the awful truth about his mother...
During the short interval when she was left in the Valley of Hell, she had actually eaten the rat poison that the wife had bought. All this time when she was helping her son, she was actually a spirit, but her son could not see that... A MOTHER'S LOVE IS THE MOST POWERFUL ENBODIMENT OF ALL... SO touching... =P
