At that moment, an illusion arose in my mind:

Are we in the wrong place?

Is this actually a den of counterfeit money?

The dried corpse attached to the yuan flew out like a cannonball, and the speed was so fast that people couldn't react at all.

But we present are not ordinary people, don't say that I can see the movements and appearance of the dry corpse, and the Heavenly Master Zhang and the generals on the side have already reacted:

The general took a step forward, stretched out his big hand and suddenly retracted it, and stood still in place with a strange smile.

Heavenly Master Zhang Ze took out a golden talisman, I was startled and quickly took a closer look, it turned out that it was not the golden giant talisman that summoned the golden dragon, but a rectangular golden talisman!

Most of the charm paper is yellow, which is related to the earliest use of peach wood talismans by Taoists and the belief in "positive colors".

The peach wood talisman was very popular before the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the general monks and Taoists used it, but after the invention of papermaking in the Eastern Han Dynasty, everyone replaced it with paper charms, and no longer used cloth, silk, silk or peach wood.

The earliest Caihou paper, its color is just slightly yellow, so later generations will use yellow paper to draw talismans!

As for the "positive color", this belief is more simple and straightforward:

Since ancient times, the agricultural civilization of China has worshiped the earth, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, the Yellow Sky, etc., and these things are yellow, so before the pre-Qin Dynasty, the people had a soft spot for yellow watches, calling it "positive color"!

And for Qin Shi Huang to ascend the throne, he especially believes in the five elements of yin and yang, he let the yin and yang monks deduce the fortune of the Qin Dynasty, and have to sign for water, and the water is black.

Therefore, Qin Shi Huang was a maverick and put on a black dragon robe, and even the military flags and daily utensils of the war were dyed black......

In the end, after Han Gaozu unified the world, he did the opposite: how unlucky it is that this black paint is black, and it is a great enemy dynasty, and it has been resentful for a long time, so it changed from black to yellow!

Moreover, at that time, many people with Taoist mana also said that yellow things had a psychic effect, and it was easier to fit with the rules of the Heavenly Dao, so since then, spells and other spell casting medium carriers have been dominated by yellow!

Of course, that's not to say there aren't any other colors!

The yellow rune is stable, and the paper is easy to ignite, which is more suitable for Taoist priests with a slightly lower realm.

There is also a silver charm on top of the yellow talisman!

The silver talisman is not well known to ordinary Taoist priests, and the silver talisman itself is made of a mixture of highly poisonous things - mercury and cinnabar, which itself has a certain danger, so there are few people who use it!

And on top of the silver rune, there is also a gold rune!

The golden talisman does not refer to the simple gold, but specifically refers to the charm made of gold dust and gold.

Most of these charms are used for forbidden spells, such as the "Truth Forbidden Mantra" of Heavenly Master Zhang, and the golden giant talisman used by Daomen when holding the "Luo Tian Dajiao".

Since the golden talisman has materials such as gold powder and gold po, of course, it is precious and rare, and ordinary Taoist priests can't afford it......

No further ado!

But he said that Heavenly Master Zhang took out the golden talisman and wanted to step forward to fix the corpse, but I grabbed it, and I laughed quickly:

"It's okay Great Heavenly Master! This dry corpse has a talisman on its forehead, and it must be controlled by someone. Although it was aggressive, it did not focus on the vital points...... Let him suffer losses and learn some lessons, so as not to get nonsense everywhere, fox and tiger power!"

Heavenly Master Zhang smiled and nodded when he heard this, and concentrated on watching the good show.

"Bang!"

The corpse shell hit She Shangguo as scheduled, and the latter's center of gravity was unstable and fell to the ground on all fours.

My judgment was correct, I saw that after the dry corpse knocked down She Shangguo, he stood still on the spot, his feet stood on tiptoe and his shoulders towered, a typical Gu corpse!

Many popular films and television programs now involve the removal of corpses in Xiangxi, and even national authoritative TV stations have conducted exclusive interviews, but the conclusions reached are unsatisfactory.

Here's a brief combing of what it means to drive out corpses!

The term "chasing corpses" comes from the Chuwu culture, also known as moving spirits, which arose in the depths of the mountains of Xiangxi.

Although it belongs to Miaojiang, it is also the western Hunan area, and there are many side categories of corpse chasing techniques!

As for the origin of the corpse, there are many theories!

There is a Chiyou origin that says:

Legend has it that thousands of years ago, when Chiyou led his troops to fight, many soldiers were killed and wounded and it was inconvenient to carry them away, so Chiyou ordered the good magicians in the army to find a way to send the corpses of the dead soldiers back to their hometowns.

And the solution that this mage came up with was - to drive out the corpses:

He used the Soul Summoning Charm to gather some wandering spirits for a short time, and then used the Soul Fixing Charm to temporarily seal these souls into the flesh of the dead soldiers, and then waved the Exorcism Whip to drive the souls forward!

There is a water transport origin that says:

Around the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, because of the mountains and rugged roads in Xiangxi, in order to allow many Xiangxi immigrants who died in Sichuan to return to their homeland, the people came up with a special profession - corpse chaser!

According to the old generation, during the Anti-Japanese War, there were still many shops in Sichuan, and a small note would be pasted on it, with the words "Charge d'affaires to transport the corpse back to Hunan Province"!

This is the origin of the folk corpse chaser, but it is fundamentally different from the corpse chaser of the Daomen, it is just to hire coolies to carry the corpse back to the hometown!

There is Chenzhou Fu to drive the corpse and say:

Chenzhou Fu is famous all over the land of China, and the wonderful use of the charm basically includes the daily needs of people's life, old age, sickness and death, of course, there will be a rigid need such as "driving out the corpse"!

Although the steps of Chenzhou Fu to drive out the corpse are extremely complicated, they all add up to three steps!

One of them - looking for the corpse!

In Chenzhou, after receiving the list of relatives of the deceased, the mage will cast a spell to search for the body according to the disaster of the deceased.

If you die from drowning or water disaster, then you have to slaughter a rooster and sacrifice to the dragon king of the river.

The three sacrifices draw talismans, relying on the first seven years, the trace of the soul in the body of the deceased to find the corpse!

If you die from a cliff fall or accident, you must prepare a bird to sacrifice to the sky, and you can only find the location of the body after casting the same spell.

......

The second - seal the corpse!

Sealing the corpse is also called sealing the funeral and sealing the smell.

After death, the body will decompose and stink within a few hours. Wizards and Taoists with lower Taoist skills will seal their bodies with ice or dry seals.

There is a kind of "Thousand Ice Talisman" in the Chenzhou Fu, which can put the corpse in the place of gathering yin, paste the "Thousand Ice Fu" and then cast the spell, and the corpse will not stink for three or five days!

The dry seal is relatively simple, directly put the silver beads into the mouth of the dead corpse, and then draw talismans on the limbs and facial features of the corpse respectively, and seal the seven orifices after spraying the water, which can generally only keep the appearance of the corpse for a few days without decay!

And those who are high in the Tao will use spiritual sealing, that is, they will use heaven and earth aura or true qi to seal the acupuncture points around the body of the dead corpse to ensure that the corpse will not rot for the time being within the first seven days!

The third - drive out the corpse!

The real Zhu You Kefa is very compatible with the origin of Chiyou!

Before driving out the corpse, the witchcraft road needs to worship the Three Realms, please the gods, ask the teacher, ask for divination, draw talismans, Dharma water, chant mantras, etc.

Then, make the "Tiangang Five Thunder Formation" again, detain the dead corpse and the remnant soul temporarily return to the body, and then recite the "corpse spell" all the way, and paste two corpse chases on the corpse's forehead, and the law will be on the road.

In fact, it is easy to say, this real Zhu Yu Kefa is now rare, and even extinct!

After all, the witchcraft in the Xiangxi region is on the verge of extinction, and no descendants are willing to learn from it.

It's better to do this hard work in the world than to pull it directly with a car......

Therefore, most of the methods of "driving out corpses" in the land of Xiangxi can be explained scientifically:

For example, the dead body is injected with a potion to soften and swell its whole body, and then the opening is opened to release the blood and pus, and after the shriveled weight is reduced, the clothes on the shoulders of the corpse are cut, and a few bamboo poles are used to pass through, and several people in front and behind will set up bamboo poles to walk.

And because most of the corpses are carried out in the middle of the night, the toes of the corpses are just erected after the bamboo poles are lifted, and the arms are stretched forward by the bamboo poles.

......

This was just now talking about "chasing out corpses", but what is the "Gu corpse" in my mouth?

In fact, Gu corpses and corpses are the same thing, but the former is just innovative by fusing Miao Gu!

According to the old man traffickers, the Gu corpse is to use a special heart-devouring Gu made by Miao Jiang to plant it into the corpse and drive the corpse away with the Gu.

After arriving at the place, tease the Gu worms with their favorite food, lure out the Gu worms, and then bury the corpses in the ground.

As for how the Heart Devouring Gu was refined, the old man trafficker just sighed and shook his head.

It means that the refining of this thing is completely contrary to heaven and humanity, but fortunately, the current Miao Jiang corpse chasers have woken up and simplified many materials and processes, although the effect is not particularly good, it is better than nothing!

————

She Shangguo lay on the ground for a while, and when he saw the Gu corpse standing in the middle of the courtyard for a long time, he rolled to the side a few times and stood up, patted the dust on his body against the gate of the bungalow, and scolded softly and angrily carefully:

"What kind of person is there in you, the patriarch of the Red Miao Hundred Birds in Laer Mountain, or Lao Tzu's brother! Who is the person in it who dares to rush into the Dingmen talker...... Vadanu, uh-huh!"

I was listening strangely and asked with a smile:

"Master She's nephew, what are you talking about, what are you talking about, what kind of deed, you are stupid hahaha!"

She Shangguo stared at the Gu corpse, walked around in a circle, approached me and replied:

"Uncle Shi smiled, what I said in the local Tumiao dialect is the same as ...... It's almost like 'fucking' hehehehe!"

I grabbed him and pulled him behind me, and said gently:

"Senior nephew She, since you call me uncle, then uncle wants to persuade you, although this Miaojiang is not an exotic mountain and river, but there are customs and habits of people, usually close to them at the same time, you must also be polite, you can't let them underestimate the Central Plains Dingmen!"

She Shangguo smiled again when he heard this, and said with a hippie smile:

"Master and nephew obey orders! hehehehe...... But Uncle Shi, you misunderstood, I am really a brother with the Hundred Bird Patriarch here! It's just that I really don't recognize the place you are looking for, for fear that there are bad people in it who will harm you...... Hey, hey, hey!"

I sighed secretly, I can't help it, as the saying goes, "three years old looks for life", this person's temperament is really hard to change, forget it!

I patted him on the shoulder to show comfort, walked a few steps to the Gu corpse to the door of the bungalow, saluted, and said loudly:

"Chen Yida, the third Dingmen, was instructed by the master Shi Chongming to come to ask for advice on the corpse chaser, and please come out to see it, it's polite!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw that the lights in the bungalow were bright, and two young men of my age, a man and a woman, walked out.

The man is dressed in a navy blue seedling dress, holding a piccolo in his hand, half of his belly is exposed outside the clothes, and his round face is chubby, but he has a bit of a fat man's demeanor!

The woman was dressed in a red Miao dress, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes like a deep pool, and her neck was shining under the reflection of the light.

The fat man walked fast, approached us in a few steps, he hugged his fists and was about to speak, but the girl behind him spoke first, and she exclaimed:

"Billion, are you cowardly putting the money on Dabao......'s head! Angry Ho!"
