The Scourge of Witchcraft Chapter 41 Soul Sacrifice
Here Chen Fangyuan was still looking at me and smiling, and that old Guo came over again, he changed his previous face and asked eagerly: "Boy, let's talk about the process of your use of the requiem charm carefully." ”
This Lao Guo is Tujia Tima, listening to Luo Lao Dao's words, he should have a deep attainment in the art of chasing corpses, but, according to my inference, he actually can't even catch up with Huang Yueling.
To be honest, this old Guo doesn't like me, I think he is also very unhappy, if it was before, I would definitely not be able to bird him, but today is different, from that underground hall to escape from death, and by so many people sought after, I am a little fluttering, very good mood, so I decided to show mercy and teach him a lesson.
So, I carefully explained to the six old men how I realized that things were actually very simple, to the process of subduing the zombies with requiems.
I have to say that watching these six old men listen to them one by one with their mouths wide open, like children listening carefully to the story, my vanity has been well satisfied, and at the end of the story, I stood up and gestured twice.
Immediately after speaking, the tent fell silent, and the old men each frowned and fell into deep thought, and for a moment the tent was only the sound of the fire burning in the stove popping.
I didn't bother to pay attention to them, found my mattress, lay down on it, and now, I just wanted to get a good night's sleep.
But just when I was about to fall asleep in a daze, I suddenly heard Lao Guo shout, "No, I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out." ”
Lao Guo's words immediately set off a chain reaction, Luo Laodao, Professor Ouyang, and the person surnamed Li all chattered and discussed, only Chen Fangyuan and Mr. Bi had no words.
"Everyone, I'm sorry, I'm just a shallow learner, and I've never heard of this kind of trick, either this kid is lying, or I'm not capable enough to understand."
"That's right, I just said, this kid must be lying, I entered the meditation at the age of twelve, and I have followed the master to the north and south for so many years, I don't know which industry and which industry? I've never heard of a corpse driven by mind without anything! ”
"Well, if you want to talk about chasing corpses, Lao Guo, although you are a master, you may not have as many corpse chasers as I have contacted, indeed, Lao Tzu has been a native master for so many years, and I have never seen such a corpse."
"I can't understand this, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, whether it is acupuncture, moxibustion, or cupping massage, it all requires external force to stimulate the acupoints, so as to get the corresponding effect.
"Lao Chen, Mr. Bi, you two talk about it, do you just let this kid talk nonsense, cheat and cheat!"
Hearing this, I couldn't listen anymore, and as soon as I wanted to get up and say to Luo Laodao, I heard Chen Fangyuan speak.
"Lao Luo, you and Mr. Bi saw him subduing sixteen zombies with your own eyes, and he brought many of our people out from below, even if you want to be cheated and cheated? Also, the last time he put down more than a dozen soul corpses at once, did you forget? ”
Chen Fangyuan's words made Luo Laodao speechless, and I heard that the tent was quiet again.
After a moment of silence, Chen Fangyuan said again: "However, I seem to understand. ”
"Got it? Got what? Luo Laodao hurriedly asked.
"Lao Luo, in fact, this set of acupuncture points is not a fantasy, but there are traces to follow. Hehe, Mr. Bi, you haven't spoken, have you thought of it too? ”
Chen Fangyuan's words immediately caught my attention, and I listened carefully while continuing to pretend to be asleep.
Mr. Bi was silent for a moment, and then muttered: "Well, there is indeed a theory about this matter, but this statement is too mysterious, and no one has confirmed it in either history books or myths, it is just a legend in the market." ”
"Oh, Mr. Bi, don't sell Guanzi, whether it's history or mythology, let's hear it first." Professor Ouyang urged.
"Okay, I'll talk about it. Everyone, you must all know that my Miao people are from Jiuli, and the Tujia people are also the veins of Jiuli, and the ancestor of Jiuli is Chiyou. ”
Chen Fangyuan added at this time: "That's right, although there are few people in the Tujia family who recognize their ancestors, but the Tujia family does belong to Jiuli. ”
Mr. Bi continued: "Legend has it that the two emperors of Yan and Huang fought with Chiyou, and then Chiyou was defeated and died in Zhuolu. However, although Chiyou was defeated that year, he actually did not die, he swapped identities with his generals, and died in front of the battle in the guise of Chiyou's generals, while the real Chiyou fled back to the south. What I just said is familiar to everyone, but there is a saying that I believe you have rarely heard. ”
Chen Fangyuan didn't seem to be willing to be lonely, he grabbed the conversation, and continued: "This statement says that Chi You was indeed killed in battle back then, but he was resurrected again, and after the resurrection, Chi You has the magic skill of chasing corpses, so he has to bring the corpses of soldiers back to his hometown, that is to say, Chi You is the ancestor of the corpse chaser. ”
"Well, that's right," Mr. Bi took over again, "Whether it's history or legend, the corpse chaser is inseparable from Chiyou. But there is one thing in this that involves the acupoint system mentioned by Brother Xiao He, some people say that Chi You got the corpse expulsion magic skill because of the soul sacrifice! ”
As soon as Mr. Bi's words fell, the pot exploded in the tent.
"Soul sacrifice?"
"What soul sacrifice?"
"Mr. Bi, what does this soul sacrifice mean?"
I was also itching at this time, and I couldn't wait to get up and join them.
"As for the specific explanation of the soul sacrifice," Mr. Bi explained, "the legend is that the soul is used as a countervail, and the spirit is signed a contract with the gods to become an apostle of the gods. ”
At this time, Chen Fangyuan interjected again, "He Xiaozi repeatedly mentioned that dark world and that powerful power, at first, I thought he was lying to me, but now that I think about it, maybe he performed a soul sacrifice invisibly!" ”
Hearing this, my brain exploded with a "bang", the loss of souls, dreams, and my illness, all of a sudden there were all explanations, it turned out that everything started at the bottom of Poyang Lake.
But before their conversation was over, I heard Mr. Bi continue: "This statement is rarely mentioned, but there are many legends in my Miao tribe, and it is said that my Miao family's Gu art is also the result of soul sacrifice. ”
"Mr. Bi, does your legend mention what kind of god the so-called soul sacrifice signed a contract with, and what is the specific process of the soul sacrifice?" Luo Laodao asked immediately after hearing this.
"Hehe, Lao Luo, don't you want to be a soul sacrifice too, right?" Lao Guo sneered.
"I said Lao Guo, don't be weird, aren't you excited?"
"Well, the people who have stepped into the coffin with one foot are still red-faced and red-eared like children! You don't want to think about why no one mentions this statement, it's because the soul sacrifice is to look at people, and ordinary people just want to sacrifice the soul, but it's useless for the gods to look down on it, and this is also a saying, it's really not true! ”
"Hehe, Lao Chen, since there is this statement, I believe it is true, you don't know, at that time in the underground, I saw that the zombie was about to catch this kid, but in an instant, the zombie seemed to be fixed, and suddenly froze in place, not moving, and then I saw that this kid just stared at the zombie, and the zombie didn't move. I'm not afraid of your jokes, I couldn't figure it out at the time, I was jealous of him, so I said that he was playing a trick, and now it seems that nothing else makes sense except for the explanation of the soul sacrifice. ”
"Hey, in fact, there's nothing I can't figure out, just say me, before I met you, I was a university professor, an atheist, and I couldn't figure it out when I first saw your Gu Magic, but after seeing more, I accepted it, and now I also believe that there are gods in my head."
"Hehe, Professor Ouyang is sincere in what he said, how many of our ancients have not passed down their unique skills, let's just talk about the tombs I went to, what strange things haven't happened? Those white-haired zongzi, green-haired zongzi, and all kinds of magical secret doors, that ordinary people can do? So, there's nothing unbalanced about us. ”
As he spoke, the old men began to sigh, and after a while I heard the sound of them washing, and then one by one they lay down to rest.
The lights in the tent were not turned off, and I was upset and irritable by their words, and I couldn't sleep at all, and when I saw that they were all resting, I opened my eyes and looked, who knew that as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Qiu Yan lying next to me staring at me with big eyes.
Qiu Yan also heard this conversation!
Qiu Yan opened her mouth to say something, I quickly shook my head at her, motioned for her to keep quiet, and then we stared at each other like this, and I finally fell asleep until late at night.
The next day, no one woke me up, and I slept until noon, when everyone in the camp was resting, some were fishing in the water, some were playing poker, and some were smoking cigarettes.
Qiu Yan was sitting on the mattress reading a book at this moment, and when she saw that I was awake, she came over.
"How's that, Zimu? Do you want to drink medicine? "It turned out that she was worried that I was "sick" again.
I sat up and smiled, "It's okay, I just was too tired yesterday." Ay? What about the old men? ”
"Oh, they went down again, saying to see what was going on, and then they would discuss what to do next when you were rested."
"Hehe, these old men are still taking the lead."
"Zimu, what they said yesterday~~~~"
Before Qiu Yan could finish speaking, I interrupted her, "We'll talk about this after we go back, don't mention it in front of them." ”
Qiu Yan nodded, then got up and said, "You're hungry, I'll get you something to eat." ”
"Hey, don't worry about the food first, I have to take a shower first, this stinks!"
"You still know that it stinks, I was almost smoked to death by you last night, there is a hot spring next to the tent, you go and wash it, I will make you something to eat, you can eat it when you come back after washing!"
Looking at Qiu Yan's lively figure, I couldn't help but feel very happy, although last night's words had a great impact on me, but this conversation answered a lot of my questions, and I gained a lot.
The hot spring Qiu Yan said was not far from the tent, and when you stepped out of the tent, you could see the curling steam there.
The so-called hot spring is a small puddle, the bottom of the puddle has a calcareous rock bottom, it is quite clean, I took off the essence of three times and divided by two, and then drilled into it.
The water temperature is a little hot, but it is acceptable, and people can't help but moan as soon as they get in, who would have thought that in such a barren mountain and wilderness, there is actually this kind of service.
As soon as I relaxed, all sorts of thoughts began to drill into my head.
Soul Sacrifice! A word that I never thought of and didn't dare to think of, just changed my fate like this, and if I was a soul sacrifice, what about my grandmother? Could it be that my grandmother and I both died and came back to life? Also, why did the soul sacrifice happen to me, and how am I different from everyone else?
I don't know if there are answers to these questions, maybe no one in this world knows the answers except for that powerful force, hey, people, it's so pathetic, I can't figure out what is going on in this world after living my whole life!
