Chapter Two Hundred and Eight: Natal Gu...
"Do you know about frogworms?" Zhong Bai said to me, and after seeing me shake his head, he explained in a deep voice.
In the south, there is a kind of worm, whose name is antworm, also known as green worm, also known as fish uncle.
It is slightly larger in shape like a cicada or butterfly, with wings as wide as a butterfly and a beautiful color.
Legend has it that when a frog gives birth to a child, the mother and the child will still gather together after separation, and people will use the blood of the frog mother and child to smear the money, and the money from the mother's blood or the money from the child's blood will fly back after being used.
As big as a silkworm, take its son, and the mother will fly.
"There is a female worm in this bamboo tube, the Gu is originally only passed on to women and not to men, this green worm should have been passed down from generation to generation above your great-grandmother, all the way to your grandmother's generation."
"It's just that your grandmother is a character who uses frogworms to the extreme, so others call her Granny Frogworm, maybe her real name is only known to her."
Zhong Bai smiled at me, "To be able to relate to him, you should know more about your ancestors." ”
I'm a little lost right now.
When I came back from my grandmother's last words, I knew that my grandmother must have been hiding a lot from me, but now that I know more and more, I feel that my grandmother is really becoming more and more mysterious.
I know about him as well as I know about him, even if it's just the tip of the iceberg.
"It's a pity that this frogworm is dead!" I looked down at the small bamboo tube, and I could faintly see the shriveled black and stiff insect like a black cicada from the small hole.
Thinking that this green worm may have been passed down from generation to generation by my grandmother, and she has taken care of it for several lifetimes, and the green worm is originally one, maybe in my grandmother's hands, this green worm has also broken the cocoon for countless generations.
I am now a cold corpse in my hands, just like my grandmother is now buried in a coffin, and I don't feel good when I think about it.
"Who said it was dead!?" Zhong Bai smiled mysteriously.
I looked up at him suspiciously, and then he said, "The frog has a spirit, it is only sleeping now, and it needs to be channeled with your grandmother's blood, so that it can be awakened again." ”
"Isn't it the same as not saying that?" I was a little speechless, the point is that now that my grandmother has also been buried in the ground, how can I wake up this green worm.
Zhong Bai groaned and said something that made my heart beat for a moment, "Perhaps, you can do it with your blood." ”
"My blood can wake up this frogworm!?" If this green worm is my grandma's natal Gu, and I know very little about my grandma, I vaguely know that my grandma must be very mysterious and powerful.
I own this green worm, will I be able to protect myself in the future if I encounter trouble!?
At least not to hold back.
Zhong Bai pondered this question and said to me, "This green worm is a natal Gu passed down from generation to generation by your ancestors' daughters, if I guess correctly, your great-grandmother passed it on to your grandmother before she died, and the same is true for your great-grandmother. “
"Your blood is already connected, and if blood is used for this kind of handover ritual for generations, then there is no one in this world who can awaken it except you."
I understand what Zhong Bai said, if the frogworm is passed down from generation to generation, then whether it is my grandmother or great-grandmother, they must use their own blood to have a connection with the frogworm, just like my Zhongji and today's paper beauty.
Moreover, the green worm is originally a strange insect that is inseparable from mother and child.
If this little bamboo worm is really just sleeping, then it is not impossible that I will wake it up with my own blood.
"Then I'll try!" I said to Zhong Bai.
But he suddenly pressed my hand to uncover the small bamboo tube, and shook his head at me, "Gu is not as simple as you think, this is a green worm, and it is not an ordinary thing, if you do these things rashly, there will be problems." ”
