Chapter 201: Rooster
As the so-called pure yang does not grow, pure yin does not grow.
All things have yin and yang, and at the same time, yin and yang are mutually reinforcing, and pure yin and pure yang do not exist.
In animals, the male is yang and the female is yin. Of course, the saliva of a hen can do it, but it doesn't work as fast as a rooster.
So why can a centipede bite be treated with chicken saliva? In addition to the fact that chickens are natural enemies of centipedes, there are of course other factors.
Centipedes often haunt damp and dim places or burrows under the soil, which are evil and poisonous. The rooster is yang, and the rooster blood itself has the effect of warding off evil spirits, and the blood of the white rooster with the nature of the yang is even more, so it is not surprising that the rooster's saliva can deal with the yin and evil centipedes, and the yang has restrained the yin.
So why can the rooster still ward off evil spirits? This claim is certainly not unfounded.
The chicken is the fowl of the five virtues. The five virtues are literary, martial, brave, benevolent, and faithful.
First, there is a towering crown on the head, which is the Wenxing high, wearing an official hat, and the Wende who is in the clouds.
Second, the foot pedal bucket distance, this is brave and fearless, and the martial arts of repeated great achievements.
Third, the sex is strong and aggressive, so the folk often use two roosters to fight each other for fun, called "cockfighting", which is brave and good at fighting.
Fourth, chickens must be divided when they are eaten, and they will never eat alone without selfishness and disregard for others... Well, no, it's his chicken, and this is the benevolence of blessing and sharing.
Fifth, "the chicken reports that the world knows", the chicken is extremely trustworthy, reports the dawn on time every day, and calls people to get up early and work hard. This is faith.
It's much more than that.
Every day when the sky is dark, the rooster responsible for pulling the sun begins to crow, and the voice is loud and high-pitched.
With this rooster crow, it distinguishes day and night, yang and yin, so the rooster plays the role of separating yin and yang, which is a very common but indispensable animal.
Rooster cries and light go hand in hand, and because of this, it can also attract souls.
Let's not mention that in ancient times, people used raw chickens to represent the dead to worship the church to get married, or to represent the people who had been lying on the sick bed for a long time to worship the church to be happy, just to say that the coffin crossed the river. Ghosts are afraid to cross the river, but many times, the funeral is a long way away and the grave chosen is remote and difficult to walk - in order to find a grave that will allow future generations to prosper, it is not a problem to climb mountains and wade through water.
Of course, there are also cases where small rivers block the road. What if the ghost doesn't dare to cross the river? Experienced people know that by grabbing a large rooster, tying it to a coffin, and beating it with a stick to make it crow, this cry can guide the ghost across the river.
The role of the rooster is innumerable, so how can the poison of the centipede be difficult to defeat it?
...
After she finished telling the life story of this legendary big rooster, Yubei and the others had already smeared all the children's centipede wounds with rooster saliva, including the little rabbit.
After another half hour or so, the fresh herbs in Chi Jing's hands had also been mashed into a ball, mixed with the green juice that had been pounded out.
She came to the children with a pot of medicine and put a small lump of rotten herbs on the place where the children had been bitten.
In fact, it is no big deal to coat the rooster saliva, but she is afraid that some of these centipedes are relatively large and slightly more violent, so she applies another layer of herbs to be safe.
"Chi girl...", a little boy raised his chin a little timidly to look at her, plucked up the courage to call out, and then quickly lowered his head.
"Huh?" Chi Jing's face was soft, and he concentrated on applying the herbs to him, and carefully wiped away the green juice that flowed out.
"That rooster is so powerful, and it is a treasure all over its body, why do people kill it and eat it? The rooster is so pitiful. The little boy said, but he didn't expect this to speak the hearts of the other children.
It's over, Chi Jing wails in his heart.
"Yes, the rooster is so useful, we should protect it, and we can't take revenge." Another child answered.
"But the chicken is really delicious, so fragrant." Another child.
"How can you be like this, don't you think it's very immoral and not a gentleman's doing? I misread you, you're so bad. "Another child.
"I'm telling the truth, I'm telling the truth, is it wrong for me to tell the truth? Woo woo... Uncle Chu... Uncle Chu, I'm not a villain without morals... "It's another child."
The corners of Chi Jing's mouth twitched and looked at the Chu family, didn't he say that these children had gone through several hardships and were already very mature and stable? How long has the Chu family brought it back, why have these childishness been raised again?
"Uh..." The Chu family received her look for help, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Miss Chi, just tell them, I also want to know why." ”
Ji Jing felt that the corners of her mouth had twitched to the point of cramping...
What else could it be for? Of course, it's because the chicken is delicious! Fresh! Tender! Nourishment!
When people are poor, they can even peel the bark of trees and eat them, and there are many people who eat people, not to mention chickens? And after tasting the deliciousness of chicken, who can stop! Who cares what it is, five virtues, six virtues, seven virtues, eight virtues!
Need a reason to enjoy good food? Facing the curious, curious and righteous eyes of these children, she just wanted to lift the table! I just want to run away!
"Ahem..."Chi Jing cleared his throat, feeling that he was about to circle the earth again.
...
"It is precisely because the chicken is such a great animal that it has become a human being, and when it can't see everyone hungry, it will give everything it has wholeheartedly, and will not ask for anything in return."
"He protects the soul of man in life, and he protects him after death... Stomach, this is its mission from birth, everyone should live up to its heart. ”
"Moreover, chickens are used to return to the gods during the sacrifice, and the gods also like it..."
In the end, Ji Jing no longer knows what she is talking about, is she going to speak for the great chicken next?
"I see." The young man who asked the question at the beginning said, the expression on his face was serious and serious.
Chi Jing was frightened: "Do you really understand?" ”
"Hmmm! The chicken received the will of the gods and Buddhas in heaven, so he gave everything for us. We have to live well, so that we won't let the chickens sacrifice in vain and bleed in vain! The young man said, nodding affirmatively to his smart self.
"Yes, it must be so!" Another child said that he could eat chicken with confidence in the future, and he would not feel guilty.
"Chickens are our best friends as humans!" Another child said.
"Good friends!" The other child couldn't find any suitable sentence, so he had to repeat it.
"Chicken tonight!" Another child took the opportunity to shout excitedly, "I haven't eaten chicken for a long time, it's been almost three months...
"You... You guys... If you're happy... Jade, jade bottle, the medicine is finished, I'll go and prepare first, you boil the hemp and boil it first, feed a child to drink, I'll go over there and wait..."
Although she has read a lot of books, she has not read the famous "100,000 Whys". If she stays any longer, if these children throw some strange questions, she can't resist it.
