I pretended to be troubled, ate a few potatoes and nibbled on a chicken leg, and then took out the black cloth that Ermao had brought back.

Put it under the light, the black background is white, the lines are particularly clear, the large line circle is like a symbol, and the rest is like words.

The horse's tail is a poor person, but he was born in a place like the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and he knows more than us when he hears and sees it, so he recognizes it when he sees the black cloth and says: "This is the black witch pattern, which belongs to the witchcraft of the corpse chase, and Qimen does not have this kind of technique!" ”

Witchcraft is extremely prevalent in Xiangxi, which can be traced back to the era of the two emperors of Yan and Huang, and is a kind of magic created by the Miao people. Witchcraft, like Taoism, has a complete and independent system.

It's just that witchcraft is not spread to other races, and it is said that it began to decline with the changes of the times, and it is not known to the world.

In fact, the Miao people who control witchcraft are divided into flower seedlings and black seedlings, and witchcraft is divided into two schools: black witches and red witches.

It is said that Chi You led the Miao people to fight with the Yellow Emperor, chasing the Central Plains, Hong Miao was responsible for treating the wounded, and Hei Miao was responsible for cleaning up the battlefield and sending the compatriots who died in the war back to their homeland.

Because of the long distance during the period, you need to climb mountains and mountains, in addition to the corpse expulsion technique, there are also some techniques such as snake fixing and other techniques to drive away wild beasts.

And from the Central Plains to Nanyun and Xiangxi, most of them are barren and populated mountains and forests, and some strange creatures can be seen in the mountains.

It's a pity that when the Gu technique matured, Chi You had already been defeated, and the Gu technique didn't have time to be used on the battlefield, and the Miao people were driven out of the Central Plains by the Yan and Huang Emperors.

After the defeat, the Miao people were divided into two groups, and the Red Witch Doctor, who was in charge of treating the wounded, retreated into Nanyun with a large number of wounded. Because the mountains and forests in the Nanyun area are dense and there are many medicinal herbs, it is convenient to collect medicinal herbs for the wounded to treat the sick.

And the black witch Miao drove the compatriots who died in the battle to travel thousands of miles, and chose the relatively flat area of Xiangxi, and the Gu art and black witchcraft they mastered also created a mysterious Xiangxi.

After the red seedlings retreated to Nanyun, because they integrated into the Yi group, some things were slowly lost.

However, the Yi people's ability to prescribe medicine is said to have been learned from Hongmiao. Moreover, the Yi people learned from the Miao people and divided the clan into red Yi, dry Yi, and black Yi. Later, the times changed, and the three ethnic groups of the Yi people were recognized, but the Miao people were collectively called the Miao because of their gradual scarcity.

Although the Yi people did not carry forward the witch medicine of the Miao people after learning from them, they also made up some well-known medicines that have been passed down for thousands of years.

The sweat medicine that appears in martial arts is made by the Yi people. In addition to sweat medicines, laxatives are also second to none.

Fortunately, in the past, when the Han people went to the mountains, they did not dare to eat and drink the food and water of the Yi people's homes, for fear of being drugged.

The horse's tail only talked about black witchcraft, and I told it all in one go. Speaking of these allusions, let alone the Heavenly Master's Mansion, I'm afraid that no one in the entire Xuanmen dares to say that they know much more than us.

Because I live in the territory of the Yi and Miao people, I have listened to them talk about the origin and deeds of their people since I was a child.

I'll say it now, with some ostentatious elements in it, lest the ponytail and short hair feel like they're amazing.

The ponytail and short hair were also really attracted by my story, but soon the ponytail said: "Qimen and Maoshan have nothing to do with black witchcraft, I heard Xie Ruhua just now, there seems to be a person behind her, if it is really a dark wizard, the problem is serious, Xuanmen has been established for hundreds of years, and the black wizard has always been outside the system." ”

Witchcraft has its own system, and the Miao people like freedom, so naturally they will not submit to it.

After hearing this, Li Lin snorted disdainfully and said, "With my sister-in-law here, it doesn't matter what black or red he is, as long as he dares to come, let them have no return." ”

Because he spoke too hard and his body language was too motivating, he pulled the wound on his scalp, and Li Lin snorted after speaking.

Underneath the head is the brain, which may be faster in nerve transmission, but it is indeed more painful than hurting somewhere else. The wounds on my hands and feet were smeared with white medicine, and now they are numb, and I don't feel any pain if I don't move.

It's dangerous enough to think about it, if the daughter-in-law and children don't come, Li Lin and I are being entangled by Xie Ruhua, and I'm afraid that thing has already gotten into our stomachs at this time.

Ma Wei was a little speechless at Li Lin's big words, but I looked at their appearance, and the Heavenly Master's Mansion was standing with us.

At least that's how it seems for now.

After a while, the horsetail said again: "Ding Ning, your knowledge of witchcraft is only a piece of the past, not the whole story. According to some ancient records of Xuanmen, Chiyou is a bull-headed human body, of course, this is mythologized, but one thing is true, Chiyou has the ability to suppress animals, and the so-called bull-headed human body is just a spirit controlled by him. ”

I was secretly proud, after all, at my age, I have always been looked down upon, and I feel a little uncomfortable. It's just that when I heard this, I was immediately proud, and the whole person was very nervous.

"Demon Bell."

Before I could ask, my daughter-in-law interjected, and then continued: "Chiyou can control the spirits, all thanks to the Demon Bell, and the Demon Bell is also very likely to be in the hands of the Black Witch!" ”

Combined with my cognition, I agree with my daughter-in-law's statement. At that time, the black witch drove the corpse back to his hometown, and to cross the reckless mountains, it was inevitable that some spirits would come out on the way to steal the corpse for food, and the best way to save the corpse was to bring the demon bell.

And the daughter-in-law is a demon, although I haven't seen her body, but it is almost certain, and she has not refuted it, which is equivalent to admitting it.

Sometimes I wonder if she will be a vixen, after all, vixens are more beautiful, and they will bring disaster to the country and the people.

At this point, the daughter-in-law is very consistent.

But in Zhao Guogang's winery, she was unmoved when we killed the five-tailed fox demon, so I ruled out this possibility.

First, if she is a vixen and sees her compatriots being slaughtered, she will definitely come out to stop it.

Second, the vixens who can transform are all more than six tails, if the daughter-in-law is a vixen, the five tails will tremble when they see her, and it is impossible to attack us.

From two points, I ruled out the idea that my daughter-in-law is a vixen. It's just that I can't think of any other goblin who can look so good except for the fox spirit.

But no matter what kind of demon it was, her brows tightened when she mentioned the demon bell, which showed that that thing had threatened her.

When I saw that she was worried, I felt uncomfortable, and I slapped the table and stood up and said, "No matter whether Xie Ruhua's backer is black or red, let's serve her to a pot first, and then clean up one by one." ”

Li Lin is still a little impulsive to do things with me, and he will not be carefully arranged like a fat man, taking advantage of the right time and place. Of course, this is mainly because we know too little about the opponent, and naturally we don't know how to prepare.

After I finished speaking, I immediately asked Ma Wei, "Do you know what Gu corpses are afraid of?" ”

Ponytail nodded, then shook her head again, so that I didn't even know what she meant, so I could just stare at her and wait for her to continue.

Ma Wei thought for a moment before saying: "The Gu corpse is all driven by Gu, and there is no fear of Taoism, and I see that the thing on the shoulders of those two bald men is like a kiss, and water and fire naturally can't overcome it." As for anything else, I'll have to figure out what a black worm is, but I've never seen it in ancient books. ”

My mother had been listening to our conversation on the side, and seeing that we were all worried about not knowing the black Gu worm, she cut her hair and interjected, "It should be a corpse eater." ”

I glanced at my mom, something she didn't recognize with a ponytail, how could she know? I think of the Nanzhao female ghost saying that there are witch masters among us, could it be that it is my honest mother?

Seeing our confusion, my mother was a little embarrassed and said, "I also heard Ning Ning's father say that I think that thing is a corpse eater." ”

Although my mother said that she had heard about it, the last sentence was extremely affirmative. But she said it was my father, and my suspicions were dispelled.

If she is a witch master, I get along with her day and night, and I am closer than my father, and it is impossible not to detect any clues.

It's probably my dad happened to say it, and she wrote it down.

"Corpse Eater?"

The short hair and the ponytail frowned, and then the ponytail said: "That thing can only be cultivated in Jingguan, and in this era, there is no Jingguan for a long time, and the corpse eater has long been extinct." ”

When Li Lin heard this, he jumped up, patted the table and said, "Okay, look at your Xuanmen is very lofty, it turns out that you are secretly raising harmful things in the Taoist temple." ”

In our Nanyun area, there are temples in almost every village, but Taoist temples are rare! I hesitated a little, but I was also ready to take the case and stand up in solidarity with Li Lin. But at this moment I saw the contemptuous look in the ponytail's eyes, and hurriedly held back.

Finally earned a breath of relief, don't look flat again, let Li Lin take the lead in the embarrassing matter, anyway, he doesn't have a daughter-in-law watching from the side, he is not afraid of being embarrassed.

I don't want to make jokes in front of my daughter-in-law all the time, so that she doesn't think I'm too old.

Sure enough, the horsetail glanced at Li Lin with disdain and said: "The Jingguan I am talking about is not a Taoist temple, the meaning of the word Beijing is artificially cast hills and high platforms. The view also has the meaning of lofty. In ancient times, perennial wars, a dozen is decades or hundreds of years, there are countless people who died on the battlefield, sometimes there are too many dead people, can not be buried one by one, will build an earthen platform, a layer of rammed earth and a layer of corpses, can be piled up as high as a hill, this way of disposing of corpses is called Zhujingguan. ”

Li Lin snorted, rolled his eyes and sat back, his face not red and his heart not beating.

Ma Wei continued: "A Jingguan often has thousands or tens of thousands of corpses, although it is tamped, but so many corpses are piled up, it will attract an animal called 'death' to gnaw on the corpses, and if you eat too much, death will become a corpse eater." It's a pity that Jingguan has long since disappeared, and no one has ever seen this animal, and even the portrait has not been left. ”

After listening to this, Li Lin slapped the table and said, "I know you are college students, but don't show off your knowledge here, just say directly, what can restrain that, that corpse eater." ”

The horse's tail bit his lip, and it took a long time to say: "If it is really a corpse eater, the only thing that can restrain them is the rammed earth in Jingguan." It's just that the thing is long gone, and even if the ruins can be found, there will be no rammed earth. ”

At this time, my mother suddenly interjected and said, "We have the back mountain here!" ”
