Chapter 840: Ye Jiu, Shaman Goddess
At this moment, a thin back slowly walked out of the ancient temple.
Dressed in an off-white suit, leather boots and gloves, the long sea of water covers his right eye, and his handsome cheeks are as smooth as white marble in the moonlight.
This person is none other than Ye Jiu.
Seeing Ye Jiu, before Zhang Meng could speak, the fat man rushed up to ask for a bear hug, but before he could touch Ye Jiu, he was dodged by Ye Jiu.
The fat man suddenly muttered dissatisfiedly: "Yo! Little lady, I haven't seen you for so long, has it become cool again? ”
"It's only been a few months, and you're speaking Hong Kong, what does cool mean." The corners of Ye Jiu's mouth were slightly raised, and he rarely responded to a fat man.
"Hey! Wasn't I infected by those Crazy Boys? Cool, and the English word cool, both have the same meaning. The fat man explained playfully.
After greeting the fat man, Ye Jiu turned his head sideways to look at the others, and nodded his head one by one.
Everyone knew that Ye Jiu didn't like to talk, so he didn't feel strange when he saw this maverick way.
"Brother Jiu'er." After everyone took turns to greet Ye Jiu, Zhang Meng greeted Ye Jiu happily: "By the way, let's get down to business first, did you find any clues in this village?" ”
Hearing Zhang Meng go straight to the point, Ye Jiu didn't greet Zhang Meng, but just raised his head and said simply and clearly: "Thousand-faced Sun, the last thing to come is this temple." ”
Hearing Ye Jiu's words, everyone immediately turned on all the flashlights and carefully looked at the village temple in front of them.
Speaking of which, the scale of the village temple in front of me is quite decent, if the front and back parts are added together, it is probably as big as the ancestral hall.
However, the geographical location is a bit strange, this mountain village is not connected to the mountain behind, but has a buffer zone of nearly a kilometer, but this temple is built at the foot of the mountain. If it weren't for the size of the village temple, everyone would still think that this was the kind of evil temple specially used to burn stand-ins.
"Who is this enshrined?" After looking around, Lai Zi asked Ye Jiu.
Seeing that Lai Zi also appeared here, Ye Jiu's expression changed slightly, but he eased up after a moment, shook his head and said: "It's a long time ago, I can only see a few stone statues of animals in the temple, and a statue of a goddess." ”
"Oh?" Hearing this, Laizi's eyes lit up and he walked quickly towards the temple.
Everyone hurriedly followed Laizi's pace.
It wasn't until Lai Zi finished reading all the statues in the village temple that he sat on the ground, as if he was digesting some information.
Although Laizi understood, the other people present did not know these statues, and immediately asked, "Laizi, what kind of temple is this temple?" ”
"Shaman."
"Shaman?" Hearing this, Zhang Meng suddenly had a terrible headache: "Shouldn't that be the doctrine believed in in the early Manchu Dynasty?" How to ......"
"No, no, no." Hearing Zhang Meng's words, Lai Zi hurriedly shook his head: "Shaman is not just a religion in the early Manchu Qing Dynasty, but the most primitive and oldest shamanic culture shared by the whole world. ”
"Oh?" When everyone heard this, they all sat beside Laizi with great interest and listened to his explanation.
Seeing the appearance of everyone, Lai Zi had to smile bitterly and explain from the beginning: "All religions in the world originated from witch, and witch is the fear of the unknown world of human beings. Other religions, whether they are Buddha, Taoist, Jesus, or Muslims, all have their own teachings, ancestors, organizations, fixed temples, priesthoods, etc., but only shamanism has no ancestors, no teachings, worships multiple gods, no organization, no fixed temples and churches, and no special clergy. Moreover, the main form of shamanism is the dancing of the great god, and the predecessor of these religions, the witch, was developed in the form of dance, so shamanism retains the most primitive beliefs compared to other religions......"
"Oh." Zhang Meng nodded as if he didn't understand.
"Look." Raiko pointed to the goddess statue next to him, which was already half left, and said, "This stone statue should be the most enshrined Buddha Mother." ”
"What kind of deity is Mother Buddha?" Zhang Meng found that most of the stone statues around him were in animal form, except for the one on Laizi's finger, which was in the shape of a human. There are tigers, there are lions, there are bears, there are eagles......
"Mother Fodo, judging from the later Chinese translation of Manchu, should be the blessed god in charge of the prosperity of the people." Before Laizi could speak, the sharp-eyed fat man flipped to the text behind the statue.
"The fat man is right." Raiko nodded and continued: "If you take a closer look, does this vague goddess statue look like a willow leaf? ”
"It's like that." Zhang Meng stood up, looked at it for a long time, and suddenly discovered the mystery, and immediately wanted to reach out and touch it.
However, he was pulled by the small building on the side.
"Brother Meng, this idol can't be touch......ed," Xiao Lou said shyly.
"Why?" Zhang Meng asked in surprise.
Seeing that Zhang Meng was puzzled, the fat man said with a big grin: "In the legend of the Manchus in the Northeast, this goddess in charge of fertility in the world is all over the body, do you really want to touch it?" Nor is he afraid of blaspheming the gods. Although the fat man still warned Zhang Meng seriously, his hands were not honestly touched.
When everyone didn't see it, Lai Zi pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that there should have been a shaman witch living in this temple before. ”
Hearing Lai Zi's words, Zhang Meng glanced at Ye Jiu inquiringly, but found that Ye Jiu also nodded.
"Really?" Zhang Meng was suddenly surprised: "Brother Laizi, how do you know?" ”
"Hehe, in fact, it's very simple to say, most of the ancient human beings had fertility worship, and this willow leaf image was actually a symbol of female yin in ancient times." Lai Zi did not shy away from it too much, but introduced it very usually: "Let's think about it, since shamanism is the oldest religious activity, the primitive society is a matriarchal society, and women are respected, and these mysterious religious beliefs are often very respected. This explains why most of the people who practice shamanism are women. ”
"Brother Laizi, I believe in your inferences, but ......" Zhang Meng still asked a little puzzled: "Does this have anything to do with whether there are shamans and witches here?" ”
Hearing this, the fat man kicked Zhang Meng's ass: "It's so stupid, I can't figure it out, you don't know how to pretend to understand it like the fat man and me!" Ask anything. ”
"Huh." Seeing this, Laizi laughed: "Speaking of which, there really isn't any direct connection. ”
Hearing Lai Zi say this, Zhang Meng immediately kicked back the fat man: "Pretend!" Feign! Reload! I don't know when it's going to be sold. ”
Looking at the two people who were fighting, Zhao San took a puff of cigarette, knocked the pole of the cigarette pouch, and said with a stern face: "Don't make trouble, since Lai Zi said so, there must be his reasons." ”
"Yes, Yoriko, what the hell did you find?" The topic just now, Lady Na is not easy to interject, and now at this juncture, she suddenly couldn't help but ask with curiosity.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Lai Zi immediately put away his smiling face, and after getting Ye Jiu's nod in response, he said with a gloomy face: "Because I smell a corpse smell......"
