I returned to the village and saw Luo Wantian and Luo Hongyan standing in front of my courtyard from a distance. I hurriedly walked a few steps, and Luo Wantian and they came up.

"Sister-in-law, where have you been?"

"I, I'm just walking around the village!"

Somehow, I didn't want to tell them that I went to the back mountains and forests by myself. After all, it is still a forbidden place in Luojia Village, and I come and go at will like this, and I am afraid that they will have something to say if they know about it.

Luo Wantian looked behind me and seemed to see that I was coming from the back mountain, but he didn't break it, but looked at me with a smile.

Xiao Hei was still following me, and when he saw Luo Wantian and them, he turned around and ran back when he screamed. I knew that it was sending me back, and that it was going back to the woods, so I didn't call it again, but went with it.

"Are you waiting for me?" I walked to the courtyard gate, pushed open the courtyard door, looked at Luo Wantian and asked.

"Yes, we have something to do with my sister-in-law!" Luo Wantian nodded.

"Then let's go in and talk!"

I invited them in, sat down in the courtyard, and went to the house to bring tea and poured a cup for all three.

When Luo Wantian saw me sit down, he said, "Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry for the last time I summoned Hongxuan's spirit, I scared you!" ”

"Where, I have to thank you!"

I hurriedly shook my head, to be honest, it was thanks to them that I was able to see Luo Hongxuan again, although I was really scared.

"Sister-in-law, we want to find Hongxuan's soul, do you know where he died?" Luo Hongyan asked suddenly.

I was shocked, I didn't expect that they hadn't given up yet, and they still wanted to find Luo Hongxuan's soul. It's just, should I sue them? Luo Qiaoyu had told me before, and a wisp of Luo Hongxuan's soul fell in the poisonous mist forest, and I had planned to find it myself. Now that the two of them have come to the door, should I sue them?

"Sister-in-law, do you know the whereabouts of Hongxuan's soul?" Luo Wantian saw that I was silent for a long time, and also asked.

I looked up and saw a hint of clarity in his eyes, knowing that with Luo Wantian's cleverness, I couldn't hide it if I wanted to, not to mention their relationship with Luo Qiaoyu, if I wanted to ask, I would naturally be able to ask, and I didn't need to hide it from them.

So, I said, "I know that a wisp of Hongxuan's soul is in the Poisonous Mist Forest, but I don't know where the Poisonous Mist Forest is. ”

Luo Wantian and Luo Hongyan looked at each other, "Poisonous Mist Forest? ”

"Yes, it's the Poison Mist Forest, you know?" I asked.

Both of them shook their heads, "Maybe ask the village chief uncle to know!" Luo Hongyan said.

"Hmm...... Wait, I think I've heard of it. Luo Wantian pondered.

"Why, have you heard, where?" I asked eagerly.

"Let me think!" Luo Wantian tapped his head with his index finger.

After a long time, a hint of brightness flashed on his handsome face, and he said, "I know, the poisonous mist forest is the Wu forest, and it is the forest in our back mountain." ”

"What?"

Luo Hongyan and I were amazed when we heard it.

"How is that possible?" Luo Hongyan shouted.

"That's it, the poisonous fog forest is the forest in the back mountain, why didn't Sister Xiaoyu sue me?"

"Hehe, don't worry, listen to me slowly!"

Luo Wantian beckoned to us and motioned for the two of us to sit down. He said slowly: "This forest has a great history. Do you know what a puppet is? ”

Luo Hongyan and I shook our heads, neither of us knew why he brought this up. Then I listened to Luo Wantian explain: "Wu is a mysterious and ancient primitive ritual. In ancient times, there were both Fu and Wu. The gods and Yu Lei on the big peach tree in Dushuo Mountain catch evil ghosts and feed tigers, and the emperor sets up peach people in the door according to this method. During the Xia Dynasty, the Shang leader Shangjia Wei invented Yang, which was used for funerals and also for Wu. ”

"What does this have to do with what you said about the forest?" Luo Hongyan was anxious and interrupted him to ask.

Luo Wantian continued: "Every nation in the world has experienced the stage of primitive society, has a history of believing in primitive religions, and has produced its own religious profession - witches. The religious sacrificial activities carried out by shamans to exorcise ghosts and worship gods, and to drive away epidemics and evil spirits, are called Wu or Wu sacrifices, and Wu rituals. The songs and dances sung by the master are called songs and dances. Nu opera appeared on the basis of Nu songs and dances. ”

"Are you saying that the witch maiden in Luojia Village is the witch master, and the witch dance that Luo Qiaoyu and the others dance is the witch dance?" I kind of get it.

"Yes, our witch is also a kind of Wu master, the origin of Chinese witch culture is related to the totem system of prehistoric society, and there are many records about Wu culture in ancient Chinese documents. The purpose of the Fu is to drive away ghosts and plagues. This has a lot in common with our shrine maiden. The shrine maidens worship the god of Wu, and the forest where they live is naturally the forest. Luo Wantian finally concluded.

"But, why don't we people in Luojia Village know that it's Wulin?" Luo Hongyan raised his own questions.

"That's right, and I've been back and forth many times in the back mountain forest, where is the poisonous fog?" I also doubt Luo Wantian's conclusion.

"This, you don't know, I once heard the village elder uncle say that the back mountain forest is divided into two parts, the witch and mother-in-law only live in the front mountain, and the real back mountain is still in the depths of the forest."

"So, the real Poison Mist Forest is still in the depths of the forest?" I asked.

"If my analysis is good, it should be." Luo Wantian nodded.

"Instead of us guessing here, let's go and ask Xiaoyu's girl!" Luo Hongyan was about to get up with a wave of his hand, but was pulled by Luo Wantian.

"You're stupid, if that girl is willing to say, she won't tell her sister-in-law clearly, and I'm still waiting for you to ask!"

I looked at the two of them and said, "Yes, Sister Xiaoyu just said that Luo Hongxuan's spirit was in the Poisonous Mist Forest, and she didn't tell me that the Poisonous Mist Forest was the Poison Mist Forest." ”

"The Poisonous Mist Forest must be very dangerous, so she doesn't want to say more, since she knows that there is Hongxuan's soul there, let's go for the two of us, sister-in-law, you can wait for us at home." Luo Wantian said.

Luo Hongyan also nodded.

"No, you can't get his soul back if you go, I'm going." As I spoke, I took out the purple jade box and told them about what my witch had taught me to collect souls.

Now, I need the two of them to go with me to find Luo Hongxuan's soul, so I have to tell them everything.

After listening to this, both of them showed a hint of understanding.

"Why did I say that Xiaoyu girl was so angry that day, so that's the case!" Luo Wantian stared at the purple jade box.

"Okay then, let's find my sister-in-law tomorrow and set off to the Poisonous Mist Forest together!" Luo Hongyan stood up.

Luo Wantian also said: "It's okay, I'll go to the village chief uncle first and then inquire about the specific situation of Wulin." ”

"We've got to get ready, too!" Luo Hongyan continued.

"Then I'm sorry for you!" I say.

"Where, this is how it should be, sister-in-law, we will come to you early tomorrow morning!" Luo Wantian turned around and said to me.
