"Su Ye, thank you..."

"Thank you," Su Ye shook his head, "Then I'll put away this string of bells." ”

"Hmm."

Qingfeng wiped the corners of his eyes and sighed, "It's still some hours before dawn, let's talk while we walk." ”

"Okay."

The two walked side by side towards the bottom of the mountain.

"Qingfeng, you're just a shell of Qi Tong, but why do you know so many things?" Su Ye asked.

"It's very simple, above you, there are soul killers, Ye You, and the sons of the Eight Yan have been protecting the Yin Eye for generations. In the same way, there must be someone down there, and I am one of them.

And I'm special, as a shell, I'm in the underworld when I open my eyes, but my memories haven't disappeared, and I can also spy on the development and actions of the yang world from time to time through telepathy. ”

"I see, I always thought that the protectors of the underworld were those ghosts." Su Ye continued, "Then have you ever heard of fox spirits? ”

"Vixen?"

Qingfeng frowned: "Women don't mess with Kuiba, men don't recruit foxes, haven't you heard this sentence, really, they're in trouble." ”

Su Ye sighed: "Alas... How do I know, they came to the door by themselves, from Nanyang to Chuandu, and never stopped all the way. Never mind... Tell me how much you know about vixens. ”

Qingfeng thought for a moment: "Before talking about fox spirits, there is actually one more thing you should know. ”

"In this underworld, there are stowaways."

"You mean something like me?"

"That's right." Qingfeng nodded, "A few years ago, something slipped away from the underworld, that is, through the Yin Eye, and at the same time, something smuggled down from above and disappeared. After a few clansmen and I applied for approval, we tracked down the stowaways through the Shadow Eye, and finally found only one vixen.

This kind of yin and yang smuggling situation is not new, because in addition to yin eyes, there are also many ways on the ghost side.

What about me... He has come to the Yang World a total of nine times, and he has been almost six or seven years before and after, and he is a person who is more familiar with the life of the two worlds, but every time he comes out, he is to complete the task.

The stowaways are different, they come from all eras, and their purpose is simple and clear, which is to seize the Yin Eye and unify the two worlds.

Fox spirits, as the most evil race, a branch of the underworld, they have countless minions and puppets in the yang world, and the secret techniques they practice are also extremely weird, good at camouflage, skinning, charm, illusion and so on. Therefore, if you can not provoke them, it is better to stay away.

The charm of the vixen is not divided into men and women, and as long as it is beneficial to them, they will become the target of their hunting. ”

Su Ye scratched his head: "With such a difficult race, is there no nemesis?"

"Of course," Qingfeng's eyes lit up, "do you know the priest?"

Su Ye made up for it, "Do you mean the beard with the cross?"

Qingfeng laughed and covered his mouth, "What you said is the name of the world, in fact, the priest is also called a wizard, and he is the natural nemesis of the fox spirit." ”

"Wizard?"

Su Ye was a little dizzy: "Quickly popularize it for me." ”

Qingfeng nodded, "Listen up, the definition of a wizard is mainly related to the skills it forms, we call it witchcraft.

Witchcraft is a spell that attempts to exert influence or control over certain people or things with the help of supernatural mystical powers. The caster is called a witch for a woman, and a man is called a witch.

In the human world, in fact, people have some yearning and understanding of witchcraft, the caster through a certain ritual performance, the use and manipulation of a certain superhuman power to affect human life or natural events, to meet a certain purpose, the performance often takes the form of symbolic song and dance, and the use of a certain kind of physical objects and spells that are believed to be endowed with witchcraft magic.

"Séances" and "spells" are the main elements that make up witchcraft.

Of course, these are the definitions of the yang world, although there are some people with abilities who will unleash some supernatural phenomena, but they are not worth mentioning compared to the underworld.

The true origin of witchcraft comes from the ghost clan. ”

When he said this, Su Ye shuddered violently.

"What's wrong?"

Su Ye took a breath and suddenly remembered something,

At that time, Leona used ancestral witchcraft to seal Theseus, a ghost wizard, don't you just talk about her.

Su Ye calmed down: "You go on." ”

"Oh,

"Legend has it that the ghost king Sores was a man who liked food during his lifetime, and during his reign, in order to produce salt for the common people and meet the lives of the people, he asked one of his cronies to come to the wilderness with a team of people and horses, take root here, settle down, and concentrate on the study of salt.

The people of Wuxian country play the green snake battle with their right hand, and the red dragon blade with their left hand, located in the middle of the great wilderness, in the south of Anyi City, bearing salt water, the water flows out of the southeast thin mountain, flows northwest, and passes through the north of Wushan.

The minister led the country of Wuxian to produce table salt, and it took them a few years to master the art of using spells and earth to make salt. Without modern technology, they use magic to filter the soil and cook it to precipitate the salt into crystals, which outsiders think is a conjure.

In addition, in the process of making salt, the people of Wuxian upheld the customs of the ghost clan, and every time they made a big show and held various sacrificial activities, this kind of sacrifice was actually to thank the ghost king Sores the Great for giving them peace.

There are various performances, accompanied by various prayers, and finally, the process begins until the white crystalline salt is produced.

This whole process, in the eyes of other peoples, is a kind of magic, so they call this kind of magic, which turns soil into salt, "witchcraft".

In fact, witchcraft first refers to the fact that the ghost clan witch has salt-making technology, and the salt-maker is a wizard.

From the perspective of the nature of witchcraft, witchcraft can be divided into black witchcraft and white witchcraft. Black witchcraft refers to witchcraft that is used when blaming someone else, also known as a sacrifice.

White witchcraft is the witchcraft used when wishing good fortune, so it is also called a priest. ”

Su Ye was fascinated by what he heard, and waited for a long time before he came back to his senses, "Go on!"

Qingfeng looked at the belly of the fish that was gradually whitening in the sky, smiled, and continued,

From the point of view of the means of performing witchcraft, witchcraft can be divided into two categories, one is imitation witchcraft, and the other is contact witchcraft.

Imitation of witchcraft is a method of witchcraft that uses similar things as a substitute for good fortune or calamity, and this method is common in the yang world. For example, if you hate someone, you take human form and write the person's birth date, or burn them or throw them into water, or cut them with a needle and a bayonet, so that they die in the place, which is in the nature of black witchcraft.

Another example is that children often fall into the well, in order to avoid disasters, often do a puppet instead of children into the well, this behavior is called breaking the disaster and breaking the evil, in the ancient production customs, the rice flower begins, men and women meet in the field, in order to promote the rice ear. If a person has sores, he can draw them on plant leaves or yellow paper to remove the disease, which is also called imitation witchcraft.

In Baiyun Temple, tie dolls, folk "stealing melons" and other customs of analysis.

But in the underworld, imitation witchcraft is not so simple, and he can actually curse, such as weakening, corrupting, mentally disturbed, and so on.

The second, contact with witchcraft, which is also very simple to understand, is a means of witchcraft that uses a part of a thing or an object associated with a thing to seek good fortune.

This kind of witchcraft can serve its purpose as long as it comes into contact with a part of someone's human body or a person's utensils.

In the yang world, this method is more interesting, for example, if someone is sick, put a coin or something more valuable in the patient's pain and throw it on the road for people to step on, so the patient is transferred to the picker.

In the past, the dark arts used to collect the hair, beard, nails, and beloved objects of the discordant in case they were harming the other person.

The baby's name should not be told to others casually, otherwise it will be controlled by others.

In the Liangshan Yi tribe, the slave owner found that the slave had escaped, in addition to sending people to find it, but also asked the wizard to perform witchcraft, by summoning the rags left by the slave and grinding it in the stone mill, because the cloth was not easy to grind down, it was thought that the slave must also go around in the mountains and could not find a way to escape;

In order to be able to enter and exit the tiger's mouth, the slave also fights with witchcraft, and generally carries a small stone mill on his back and puts it on his head, so that the cloth milled by the slave owner will fall off quickly, and he can escape successfully.

Now that I've said that, I'm telling you about the wizards of the Gu Soul Palace's underworld, and you'll meet them sooner or later.

It is said that they are now using unknown means to convey some evil sorcery to the puppets of the Sun Realm. Usually curses and witchcraft. ”

"Witch?" Su Ye thought of Zhang Chi and the fat man who was killed by the marrying mound.

"You... Encountered? ”

"It seems that my tablemate is the puppet of the Gu Soul Palace, he has accepted three apprentices, one died, and the other led us to the entrance of the Gu Soul Hall and was shot to death by the third uncle. Before he died, he said that he was no different from insects, that people were not like people, ghosts were not like ghosts. ”

Qingfeng said solemnly: "That's right, they seek the power of darkness and evil, and their methods are cold, and they will not sacrifice any price in order to punish the enemies of the spellcaster.

For example, when ordinary people use curses, they generally use their own blood as a medium to summon evil spirits, and if the curse is successful, the caster must use his own life force as the source of the curse's power, otherwise the curse will not be able to be carried out, and even the evil spirits will turn against the caster.

This method is mostly used to avenge people or others, and can also be used as a curse to cure diseases, punish evil spirits, and fight against black witchcraft. Strangely enough, I once fought against one of the wizards of the underworld, but I was amazed at how quickly his body and blood recovered after a sacrifice, that is, they were able to unleash evil while being supported by a powerful mystical force behind them. ”

Su Ye nodded, "The blood corpses on the Gu Soul Hall Mountain have this ability, and later the descendants of the ghost clan took us away. ”

Qing Feng went on to say, "In the yang world, with the rise of human civilization, especially the formation of cities, man and nature are increasingly separated, and a new spirit also appears, and the situation of natural selection and survival of the fittest is more intense in the city than anywhere else, and the class begins to develop his ambition and aggressiveness, and only by riding on the head of man can he come out, in this case, witchcraft becomes a terrible tool for personal struggle, and becomes the black witchcraft that man fears, and witchcraft is now spurned by most people." Black sorcery, the darkest of all black magic, is undoubtedly the Secret Magic.

It is the most disgusting and disgusting of the ritual of magic used in the ritual of spiritism, also known as necromancy, which itself refers to an ancient method of communication with the dead world, but unfortunately, this witchcraft is only used by the Hades.

Necromancy can be divided into two branches: one that summons and dominates ghosts (necromancy), which is more common; One faction is in control of the Dead Soul Sect (Dead Corpse Sect), and both factions have an inseparable relationship with the dark arts.

The Necrons usually do this by opening altars and spells, while the Necrons use exhumations and grave robberies to obtain the terrifying black magic they need.

Necromancers are usually surrounded by horrific deaths, dressed in clothes stolen from the dead and contemplating the meaning of death.

It is impossible to understand the mysteries of necromancy without a certain level of attainment in the knowledge of the soul and death, and the consequences are very dangerous if you do it rashly.

Normally, dead people do not return to the human world, whether in the form of entities or ghosts, and if this happens, it must be for a very specific reason.

Initially, those who communicated with the necromancy were motivated by profit. Because everyone believes that everything can be seen and seen after death, necromancers summon dead people to a large extent by those who want to know the location of the treasure, and these summoning rituals are usually performed 12 months after the person's death, because the folk believe that during the 12 months after the person's death, the soul has been wandering around the cemetery and cannot see what the living want to see.

But too old bodies are usually not chosen, because as far as the corpse faction is concerned, too rotten corpses cannot answer the question clearly, and later, the necromancer will summon the necromancer and corpses to attack others, which mostly occurs in the Xiangxi area.

For these purposes, it is common to suppress the resentment of the necromancy, which requires special magical help, which is usually only possible for very experienced wizards.

In the ancient books of wizards in England, there is a record of necromancers drawing charms on the chests of dead corpses to cast spells. Sometimes, necromancers need to summon powerful demon gods to protect themselves or drive dead bodies and ghosts into obedience.

In ancient Greek incantations, it is recorded that the necromancer summoned the Gore knights to protect themselves and control the necromancy. In Roman plays, the depiction of necromantic rituals also included burning and blood. In other ceremonies, necromancers eat dog meat, which symbolizes Hector (the patron saint of shamans); Also eat unsalted and unfermented brown bread, unfermented grape juice, which symbolize rot and death.

In continental Europe, necromancy rituals were even more demanding, often carefully designated at deserted intersections, basements, ruins, inaccessible forests, or withered bushes. Once the time of the ritual was decided, concentric circles and indescribable symbols symbolizing power were painted in the venue and given sacred names. The circles were cursed by magic, and the necromancer's assistant stood in the center of the sub-son, protected by magic, and finally, the necromancer had the power to summon the spirits of the underworld.

If successful, the necromancer emerges from the circle, and the necromancer is confronted with unbearable screams and terrifying and incomprehensible grumbling... At times, powerful necromancers roared in the form of monsters, threatening to tear the necromancer to shreds.

When the necromancer finally succumbs to the wizard's feet, it usually transforms into a naked ghost and then answers the wizard's questions and requests.

So far, all I know is that the underworld has succeeded in summoning the spirits of the underworld in the yang, but that was a long time ago.

When the séance is over, the dead usually disappear into the poisonous mist of brimstone, and the dead are burned by the sorcerer with quicklime.

Until then, the necromancer must remain in the Holy Realm, and if he has to leave, he must perform some other rituals.

The necromancer also removes all flowers and plants from the site before and after the ceremony, burns them, and buries their ashes deep in the ground. The entire ritual is fraught with terrifying dangers, and the slightest mistake can lead to the death of the necromancer, or even permanent trauma to the soul.

Interestingly, for the necromancer of the yang world, the numbers 9 and 13 are extremely meaningful.

9 represents the nine realms that the soul passes through from birth to death in ancient beliefs. 13 represents Jesus' Last Supper and His resurrection.

In Voodoo, the corpse is resurrected in the form of Baron Maddie, the "God of the Zombies in rags".

In Haiti, the Necromancer is ritualized in the incarnation of Naib (the Father of Death), in which white wax is dropped on the feet and lips of the corpse, and the necromancer wears a monk's robe, a silver hat on his head, and a Naib charm hangs on the cross. When the sorcerer's robe and hat vibrate, the ritual is awakened and the ritual is successful.

The reason why necromancy is spurned by people, in addition to its improper purpose, is that in rituals, dead corpses are often used as raw materials for spells. And necromancy believes that dead bodies that have died in violence or broken in the sky are the best medicine.

Because they think that such dead people have more unused spiritual power.

In the witchcraft of the ancient Norsemen, the strongest necromancer could resurrect even those who had just died on the gallows!

The 16th-century Inquisitor Paul wrote: "Necromancers use charred fragments of dead bodies, especially those who have been hanged and humiliated... With small pieces of nails or teeth... Hair, ears or eyes... muscles, bones, or fresh meat...", and some necromancers have the practice of eating corpses, especially unbaptized infants. So at that time there were a lot of graves that were stolen.

The most famous case in history is that of the Irish necromancer-Alice, who was prosecuted for stealing and using the hair and skulls of dead bodies, and it is said that the moss that grows on the heads of dead bodies is very precious to necromancers.

Later, a very serious meeting was held in the underworld, which was attended by our dragon clan, the immortal clan, and the ghost clan. We unanimously decided to come to the Underworld for a witch hunt.

In those years, a large number of necromancers inevitably became the target of hunting.

I remember the fools of the church shouting that they were servants of the devil, and it was ridiculous. It wasn't until the appearance of a person that these things changed, and it also made me change the direction of my cultivation. That man was the priest, and what he promoted was white witchcraft.

White witchcraft is usually based on praising and blessing the gods, seeking the power of light or goodness to help others without paying too much price.

White witchcraft is a kind of witchcraft, that is, ordinary people pray for sunshine, rain, exorcism, evil spirits, insects, things, spiritualism, and even make infertile women give birth to children, so that there is no emotion for men and women to love each other.

It's relative to black magic.

White witchcraft is subjectively intended to anticipate future situations in a mysterious environment, or to take effective ways to cure diseases and give people health.

1. Forbidden spells.

Before performing some witchcraft, it is necessary to use language, such as the art of curing malaria with jujubes, which is the opposite of respecting ghosts and gods, but using language to imitate witchcraft activities, and the prohibition of witchcraft may have a certain effect on encouraging the courage and confidence of the sick in a specific cultural environment.

2. Sacrifice. It is expected to be protected by the emperor, ancestors and gods, and has a certain spiritual effect.

3. Congratulations.

It is a witchcraft that uses language as the main means and is supplemented by some rituals to get rid of the evil spirits, and the "Su Wen Essence Shifting Essence and Changing Qi Theory" says: Yu Wengu's cure, only its essence is changed into qi, and it can be wished to be just. It can be seen that the witchcraft of wishing for the cure of the disease has existed since ancient times, and both the practitioner and the patient want to remove the evil by wishing the cause of the disease, which has a certain component of psychological treatment.

4. Yu step.

Legend has it that Dayu himself often presides over sacrifices and divination activities.

"Forbidden Scriptures" is forbidden to swell in the law said: "Five days of the day is to do the law Yu footwork, hold the breath and hold firmly, if the disease, think of this hand as a hot iron, righteous thought of the predecessors of the disease like snow, the hand disease (place) that is dispersed." If the patient's head is swollen, it should not be cured immediately, and it should be left for tomorrow. "Regarding the use of Yu steps, there are still three, seven, and nine steps, and the method of matching with the breath is recorded. The method of Yubu was gradually formed, but it was inseparable from the inheritance of Xia, Shang and the same period.

5. Except, dance and peach.

These are all behavioral witchcraft, and the "Zhou Li Witch" is the year of the year to remove the provocative bath. In the concept of witchcraft, this kind of bathing and cleansing the body is believed to be able to eliminate disasters and diseases, especially the use of peach blossom water in spring to wash the uncleanness of women's bodies, and the purpose of this is to drive away ghosts and seek education.

The wind of dancing is quite prosperous in the Zhou Dynasty, and Da Da is a kind of witchcraft activity to expel the plague ghosts before the wax moon, which is used to drive away the plague ghosts, so it is called Da Wu, or expelled.

The peach is a peachwood handle broom made of reed flowers, and the ancients believed that it had the effect of driving away evil spirits and epidemics.

6. Divination and disease detection.

There is nothing more diagnostic than the inference of pregnancy and childbirth. In the Book of Changes, it is said that "there is no disease without delusion, and there is joy without medicine." "Damage their illness, so that there is joy and no blame." It is a summary of medical practice experience.

In the underworld, the priest who unleashes white sorcery is not these nothingness things, it can add status to a single person or a group, in layman's terms, it is to add Buf.

"Add Buf?!"

"Yes, I have a charm blessed with white sorcery, and I can show it to you when I have a chance."

Su Ye instantly became interested, licked his mouth, looked around, and saw an old man at the entrance of the village at the foot of the mountain just going out: "Qingfeng, don't have a chance, let me see now, if this thing can really break the illusion of the fox spirit, then you can really help me a lot, quick, give it a try, let me see the effect!"

Qingfeng stretched his neck, blinked, frowned, and said, "It can be, but this old man is old..."

"White witchcraft is not black witchcraft, so it shouldn't be harmful, right?"

"The principle is this, emmm... Okay, so I'll make the old man a little more excited? ”

"Good!!"

The two came to the foot of the mountain, Qingfeng stretched out his finger and fell, the golden light was like an arrow from the string, shooting at the old man impartially, and the pale yellow halo accompanied by the sparks of the jump wrapped the rickety's body for two seconds, and then magically disappeared.

"That's it?"

Su Ye scratched his head: "Nothing has changed?"

The words should have just fallen,

Suddenly, I found that the old man was trembling all over, and he became anxious, like a headless fly, spinning around, and finally, holding the old locust tree with one hand, the whole person began to shake his head violently!

"This ...... You're so excited, aren't you?"

Su Ye covered his mouth in surprise.

Take a closer look, the old man's body is faintly "crackling" electric flashing.

"Shhh

Su Ye gasped, thought of something in an instant, spread his legs and ran towards the entrance of the village.

Bad

The spark that jumped just now was electricity, and there was electricity in the charm, and the old man was electrocuted, and the wet wood after the rain was a conductor.

Damn, it's all your own fault!

Uncle, hold on!

Su Ye blamed himself for running faster and faster, like a hungry cheetah, and rushed over!!

"Big~Master!"

A roar,

Su Ye jumped up, flew up with a kick, and kicked the uncle's ass mercilessly!

"Poof!"

The uncle slapped the dog for eating feces and fell into the sand next to him, squeaking in pain.

There were more and more passers-by watching, and Su Ye adhered to his consistent style and did good deeds without leaving a name.

however

Just as he patted his ass and was about to leave in obscurity, a withered hand grabbed his trouser leg.

The uncle's eyes were red, with tears in his eyes: "You... You, why are you kicking me?"

Su Ye was stunned: "Uncle... Didn't you just get electrocuted?"

"Drink~~~ phew! There is a stone in Lao Tzu's cloth shoes, trembling, shaking!! ”
