Volume 1: Dou Onmyoji Chapter 26: Feng Ji
Li Zhishun saw that Mu Hibiscus was anxious to hear it, and hurriedly said: "She said that she is from Miao Village, Buyi Township, Miao Nationality, Yunnan, and Feng Niang is from the same village as her, she has an elder brother, Feng Niang grew up with him, the two were childhood sweethearts, and they were originally going to get married when they grew up, but I don't know why Feng Niang suddenly ran away from home one day for no reason, and I don't know where to go, until one day Feng Niang went back by herself." Speaking of this, he looked at Mu Hibiscus and emphasized: "That is, when I just told you that Feng Niang had been back to Yunnan for more than three months, the sorceress said that Feng Niang didn't know what conflicts she had with her brother after she went back, and she secretly killed her brother, and his brother's death was very similar to Li Mingcheng's death, and later I learned that his brother was sucked away by Feng Niang to help her practice some powerful witchcraft." Later, the witch looked for Feng Niang's whereabouts everywhere, to help her brother avenge, and finally one day let her find out that Feng Niang had married another man in our village, so she rushed to our village, at this time Feng Niang's husband Li Mingcheng had died, after her secret investigation, found that Li Mingcheng's death was because she knew that his wife Feng Niang had a good relationship with him, that is, the witch's brother, so the couple quarreled, and Feng Niang killed her husband in a fit of anger. ”
Li Zhishun said so much in one breath, he took a breath, and continued: "The villagers are very angry with Feng Niang's evil deeds, the most important thing is that she is such a person who does not know how to observe festivals, messes up women's morals, violates customs, and damages the reputation of our village. At that time, the crowd was excited, and they all said that they wanted to arrest Feng Niang and soak in the pig cage, but under the crowd, Feng Niang didn't even have a chance to explain, and the villagers caught her that day and locked her in the pig cage, and soaked to death in the river. ”
Wushi Village is feudal, the customs are ancient, and the system and etiquette of the ancients have been continued.
Li Zhishun said again: "Afterwards, we learned that the later witch was named Feng Ji, who was originally apprenticed with Feng Niang, but Feng Niang never listened to the master, and after learning the witch, she often did something hurtful in secret. Feng Ji heard that the mountains here in our village are rich in medicinal materials, and it is the place where the immortal hermits practiced in ancient times, she settled in our village in the name of collecting medicinal materials, and it has been more than a year now, she often sees a doctor for the villagers, and her medical skills are also quite good, and she is also very good to people, and she is very respected by the villagers. The other day I told you that there was a wizard in our village, and that was her. ”
Hibiscus rolled his eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Can you take me to meet this wizard?" ”
Li Zhishun said: "Of course you can." ”
——
The village chief took Hibiscus to the hut he had seen last night.
Although the area of this chalet is not very large, it has everything inside, and the furniture is neat and clean, and the interior environment is very different from the surface of the cabin.
Feng Ji was a woman in her thirties, she was sitting alone in a wooden house and meditating, and the village chief knocked on the door for a long time before she came to open it.
Seeing a stranger standing behind the village chief, she didn't have the slightest expression of surprise on her face, as if she had known that there was such a person as Hibiscus in the village.
The village chief said with a smile: "Master Feng, this is a passer-by who came from outside two days ago, and I heard that your medical skills are excellent, so I want to come to visit you and disturb your Qing cultivation, I'm really embarrassed." ”
Feng Ji smiled and said: "If a guest comes, it is too late to be happy, but I am afraid that the shelter is narrow and small, which will damage the dignity of the guests." ”
Hibiscus smiled: "Where, where." ”
After a few polite words to each other, Feng Ji invited them in, and the three of them sat around a low table, Feng Ji poured tea and said: "There is no good tea to entertain, only a few cups of camellia, although the taste is bitter, it can also relieve worries, and the guests are not disgusted." ”
Mu Hibiscus said: "Although you and I have learned differently, we are also like-minded people, why do you pay so much attention to it." ”
Feng Ji said: "I don't know where my friend has inherited, what skills have you learned?" ”
Mu Hibiscus said: "Forgive the juniors for being rude, it is inconvenient to tell the teacher, as for what you have learned, it is just a yin and yang technique that does not enter the stream." ”
Feng Ji frowned and said, "Yin and Yang Technique? ”
Hibiscus said: "Yes! ”
"As far as I know, the art of yin and yang is the art of the island country, and the Taoist friend is not a person from a foreign country?"
Mu Hibiscus said: "The younger generation's life experience is complicated, and it's a long story, it's just a coincidence, and I have to learn this technique." ”
Feng Ji saw that there were many concealments in Mu Hibiscus's words, and there were many doubts in her heart, but she didn't show it, and said with a smile: "It's rude and rude, if there is anything offensive, I hope don't be surprised." ”
Hibiscus said: "The seniors are too worried. ”
Feng Ji paused for a moment and asked again, "I don't know what happened to your friend?" ”
Mu Hibiscus said: "I simply admired the profound cultivation of the predecessors' wonderful arts, and I came to pay a visit. ”
Feng Ji said: "Why did you come here? ”
Mu Hibiscus said: "I heard that there are many precious medicinal materials in the mountains here, and there have been many immortal hermits hidden, so I came to visit, hoping to get a few precious medicinal materials and take them back to replenish vitality." It would be even more honorable to meet an immortal or a monk who was in seclusion. ”
Feng Ji said: "It's reasonable, but I don't know if there is anything to gain?" ”
Mu Hibiscus said with a smile: "I haven't entered the mountain yet, I was going to enter the mountain today, and I heard the villagers talk about the demeanor of their predecessors, and they admired it so much, so I came to visit first." Things happened in a hurry, and they came empty-handed, so don't be surprised. ”
Feng Ji laughed and said: "Daoist friends are smiling, you have come thousands of miles away, leaving important things, but it is my honor to come to see me as a useless person first." ”
The two of you and I said one sentence at a time, the words they said were profound and difficult to understand, and there was a hidden edge in the words, which made the village chief Li Zhishun confused.
I only heard Feng Ji say again: "I heard that there is a peak in this mountain, there is a hole on it, and there is a poisonous snake that eats people. ”
Hibiscus said: "Thank you seniors for reminding me, I will be careful." ”
After sitting for about half an hour, Hibiscus said goodbye to the village chief and left.
When I returned to my residence, it was just after noon, and Hibiscus was lying on the bed thinking about what was on her mind.
This woman named Feng Ji looks kind and affectionate on the surface, but it makes Hibiscus think that she is a little pretentious.
Judging from the conversation and behavior with her just now, she seems to be deliberately hiding something, and her every move makes people feel that she is playing tricks.
This man must have bad intentions in settling here.
Thinking of the big toad that took her to Feng Ji's residence last night, and remembering the story of Feng Niang told her by the village chief in the morning, it can be concluded from these two points that the death of Feng Niang and her husband must be related to Feng Ji, and she was definitely killed by her, as for why she killed Feng Niang and her husband, this still needs to be investigated, and there must be an unknown story in it.
Thinking of this, a bold guess suddenly appeared in her mind, could the poisonous python in Chilian Cave be secretly raised by her?
Who else can there be here besides her ability to raise poisonous pythons?
I remember that the village chief said to Mu Hibiscus that in the past year, some people have often disappeared in the village for some reason, and the poisonous python is a cannibal, and Chilian Cave is some distance from the village, and the poisonous python will never come down the mountain to forage for food by itself.
If this possibility is ruled out, then there is only another possibility, it must be Feng Ji who used evil magic to take people out in the middle of the night, and then take them to the cave and let the poisonous python eat them.
Hibiscus had done this kind of thing before, so she was very aware of this method.
Although she is a student of yin and yang, and Feng Ji is a witchcraft, in terms of taking people, the techniques used are always the same.
Yes.
The reason why she settled here under the pretense of collecting medicinal herbs was actually to secretly raise poisonous pythons here.
What purpose did she have in raising this poisonous python?
This question needs to be carefully studied!
No matter what conspiracy she has, since she has encountered it, Mu Hibiscus must take care of it.
She was originally a kind girl, and she knew that ordinary people were caught by people who knew magic and used evil to do evil, and the end was really cruel.
She used to follow Fa Ming out of necessity, and she did a lot of crimes.
Now that she is out of the clutches of Fa Ming, it is the time for her to accumulate good and repent for her sins, how can she sit idly by?
