Chapter 929, the old man who performed the opera
The town of Wushen is still as pleasant as ever.
The town is normal, full of tourists, open-air hot pot, stone pot barbecue, and unique mountain delicacies, satisfying the appetite of most people.
The breeze is coming.
In the evening, the sacrificial performance in the town began, and seven stone statues of evil spirits were invited out and placed under the altar.
Qin Kun and his entourage sat next to the stone pot barbecue, which was the closest location to the sacrificial performance, and when they saw the lifelike seven stone statues, they all showed confused eyes.
"Director Qin...... Isn't that a monster from a cave? ”
"I'm ...... Exactly these seven? The seven monsters we took a photo of ......"
Everyone took out Yuan Xinghan's painting and looked at it, and in the cave, Xu Yang, Tu Xuanxuan, Wu Senran, Chen Da, Zhang Er, Zhao San, and Qin Kun were all painted in the painting.
The seven ghouls who were with them in the picture were the seven stone statues in front of them!
The strange thing is that one of them happened to be missing half of his arm, and it puzzled the witches who presided over the sacrificial performance for a long time.
At the table next to him, a few tourists who were drinking laughed: "Friends, have you also gone to the cave outside the town?" Connoisseurs. These seven stone statues, but the famous Seven Love Demons of the Snake Altar, are said to be statues thousands of years ago. At that time, the Ba people carved the seven love demons with joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil, and desire, which was the most important link in the ancient sacrificial ceremony. ”
Seven Love Demons?
Qin Kun felt a little interesting, and when he recalled their appearance, it was indeed similar to what this tourist's eldest brother said.
Yuan Xinghan said curiously: "Isn't this the seven feelings of the Buddhist family?" What do you do with the Buddhist concept of the Ba people's sacrificial links? ”
Tourists are happy: "My friends are well-informed and powerful." I also asked the local witches, and they said that at that time, the two Jin Dynasty were still Buddhas, and the concept of Buddhism spread all over China, and it also influenced many religions, especially the shamans and shamans who worshipped primitively, most of them would use the concept of Buddhism as a theory. Compared with the Taoist concept of 'dedication to practice', the Buddhist concept of 'everyone can become a Buddha' is more deeply rooted in the hearts of shamans and shamans. ”
When Yuan Xinghan and the tourist had a good conversation, the ceremony began.
The bonfires are lit, the strange old syllables are shouted from the mouths of the dancers, and the sacrificial performers beat the ritual vessels and dance to the beat.
The drums rumbled and deafened, and the fire-breathing witch wishes were like gods, bringing the sacrificial performance to a climax.
At the beginning of the nuo play, the masked witches entered, swaying their arms, stepping on the beat, spewing flames, and the leader of the man was cloaked, and a mouthful of water sprayed into the sky, not far away, there was thunder.
Boom –
"Oh~Oh~"
The monkey-like cry, which sounds funny, is shocking on a certain occasion, and everyone equates this sound with the original.
The head of the Wu Zhu robe flicked off, and the mask changed.
Just now it was the god of fire, now it was the god of rain, and the people dancing around him fell to their knees, slapped their mouths, and let out a strange cry of ahhhh
Boom –
Another thunderclap.
Wu Zhu spread his hands out, facing the vast sky, and in the evening, when the sky was still sunny just now, it suddenly rained heavily.
The clouds were thick and the rain was pouring down, but the bonfire was not extinguished.
Those tourists were shocked by this scene and were speechless, this kind of primitive performance, the visual impact is definitely not worse than a large-scale stage show, and it is also a 3D effect.
"Yikes! This rain evaporates without landing, it's amazing! ”
"Turpan only has it, right?"
"This is a sacrificial offering?"
All the tourists exclaimed.
Qin Kun stretched out his hand and smacked his tongue again and again.
"Weathered and rainy?"
This kind of Taoist technique will actually be applied to performance?
Recalling the legend of the demagogic practice of ancient Taoist priests, it seems that Taoism was used in performances at the beginning. Solidify people's hearts, is this the original intention of Taoism?
Is this the core of 'the major affairs of the country, in the worship and the Rong'?
Sacrifice is to unite people's hearts......
A super-scale show, when everyone returned to the Witch God Inn, they never came back to their senses.
Xu Yang, Wu Senran, and Tu Xuanxuan, people with good family backgrounds, often travel, but in various parts of China, they have never seen a sacrificial performance that can be so shocking.
In addition to being shocked by the seven stone statues at first, since then, he has been deeply immersed in the performance and cannot extricate himself.
The same is true for Dr. Shen, who watched the show like a fool from beginning to end, and took a few rare photos as a souvenir.
The same is true of Chen Dasan, Yuan Xinghan, and Du Qinghan.
In the room, Du Qinghan was much happier than usual today, and said to Qin Kun with a smile: "It's really interesting to come out to play." ”
"Then you come out with the group more often."
"Hmm. By the way, just from the beginning of the performance, you didn't even care about eating meat, what did you keep staring at the Wu Zhu at the head? ”
Qin Kun didn't expect Du Qinghan to observe this kind of detail, touching his nose and smiling, "It's nothing, it seems to be an acquaintance." I'll go out in the evening. ”
……
I went to the Snake Altar at noon, watched the show in the evening, and at 11 o'clock in the evening, the town returned to its previous calm.
A hot pot stall with red soup sits the witches who are performing today.
Three, three, two, two, two table, eating nine-square grid, just received the appearance fee, very happy.
At one of the tables, there was a young man in a linen robe, who was no longer dressed as a witch in his previous cloak, his hair was neatly tied in a bun, his mouth was exposed under the mask, and he was tasting the hairy belly in the pot.
Qin Kun sat opposite, and the young man in the linen robe smiled: "What a surprise, I didn't expect to meet you here......"
Qin Kun asked for a bottle of beer and shrugged his shoulders: "It's really unexpected, I didn't expect the true legend of Xuduguan to become a street artist performing Wu opera...... He did not hesitate to show his hand. ”
The young man laughed, this person is the disciple of the Painted Skin Fairy, and he is the true legend of Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji smiled, much more cheerful than he had been detained before, and recalled: "The Maoshan Dan meeting is over, and it hits me a lot. Who would have thought that being defeated by you in the line of cause and effect would be a humiliation to me. ”
"At that time, it was quite decadent, I was the true disciple of the Painted Skin Fairy, and if you were eliminated in such a way, you became my inner demon."
"Later, it didn't take long for Master to drive me down the mountain, not to give me food, not to drink, not to give me money......"
Mo Wuji's mask turned into a wry smile, "I was hungry for two days and two nights, my demons became heavier and heavier, and my body couldn't bear it...... No, the performance troupe that just joined, 300 appearances at a time, for food, drink and accommodation, okay? ”
Qin Kun laughed, the Painted Skin Immortal is also a wonderful person, the disciple was already hit hard in the Maoshan Danhui, who knew that the old man still ignored it and kicked out of the sect directly.
That's a good way to do it......
If a Taoist priest is born for too long, it will become difficult to enter the WTO, and he will not have the basic ability to make a living, so he will inevitably be attacked by others.
Qin Kun took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Why don't you go and help people catch ghosts and exorcise demons?" ”
Mo Wuji hung his head: "I can't find a way." You have also seen that I was dressed strangely, and before the Tai Chi Demon became a great success, I couldn't take off my mask, who would let me help? All the way from the foot of the mountain in Yuduguan, I came over with the troupe and received a lot of scolding, alas...... I admire Senior Brother Xu Facheng a little now, and of course, I admire you even more. ”
Qin Kun obviously felt that Mo Wuji's attitude towards him had changed greatly now.
I don't know if it's because Mao Shandan will be defeated by himself and admired, or because he admires his social experience, in short, he is no longer as indifferent as before.
"Those people this afternoon, are they members of the travel agency that you, Senior Sister Chu, and Senior Brother Wang opened?"
"Yes."
"How long will you stay here?"
"I'll leave tomorrow."
Mo Wuji nodded: "I was ignorant before, I haven't been to Linjiang to visit you, so I invite you to have a hot pot today, right?" ”
Qin Kun looked at the red oil billowing Jiugong Grid, he was really not interested.
"Forget it, there's no sincerity. I even invited the painted skin fairy to eat wontons. Qin Kun glanced at Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji panicked, and hurriedly called: "Don't! Don't leave! Qin Kun, can I take a step back and change the mandarin ducks? ”
