The third uncle divided the six chicken coops into three flat poles. The three of us each carried a pole and prepared to go in the direction of the bridge.

We were also ready to follow the third uncle to do something big, who knew that the third uncle took two steps and stopped suddenly. He put the chicken coop down, patted his head and muttered, "I'm old, I'm really old, I've almost forgotten something important." ”

"What's the matter, Third Uncle, surprised?"

The third uncle took out a pile of talisman paper from his bag and divided it between me and Fat Dahai: "The time has come to test the two of you, you can use this now, and each of you will draw five talismans to ......"

"Drawings? What symbols to draw? I asked.

"Blind charms. The blind is the blind gaze of death. Have you studied? The third uncle asked.

"Blinding?" Fat Dahai and I glanced at each other.

This kind of rune, when it was closed in the mountains, Chu Liuyan did not teach us. But then he gave us two rune patterns, which recorded no less than a hundred ways to draw runes. It is said that we should practice when we are usually fine, and when we are done, we can find him to change to more advanced rune patterns.

To be honest, when it comes to practicing runes, I'm far less diligent than Fat Dahai. Fat Dahai specially copied a copy of that pattern and kept it by his side, as long as he had free time, he would find the pattern and come to learn. And I'm still a little lazy, and I haven't memorized most of the runes on it yet.

So I still know about the kind of amulet that the third uncle said, but I can't draw it.

The so-called blindness, as literally understood, means to close the eyes. And the Blur Charm, as the name suggests, is to use runes to make the target close their eyes and not be able to see.

Of course, this kind of rune is also related to the caster's Taoism, and the higher the Taoism, the more advanced the object that can be cast. Beginners like me and Fat Dahai can only deal with some small animals when they draw talismans. And if you are a person with advanced Taoism, you can use the charm to make people or goblins unable to see.

Today, the third uncle suddenly talked about this kind of amulet, and the fat man and I were a little surprised. Because the third uncle never told us that we still need to draw talismans when we come here.

But fortunately, we all know this kind of thing, although I can't draw, but fat people can still do. Hearing that I hadn't learned yet, the third uncle glared at me with hatred and said, "You kid, you can't work hard, when can you become an apprentice if you are so lazy?" ”

I smiled and didn't argue with the third uncle. Because what the third uncle said still makes some sense, I am indeed lazy.

After listening to the third uncle, Fat Dahai immediately nodded and said: "Uncle Shi, I can draw this kind of talisman, but this talisman is ......."

The third uncle waved his hand: "It's okay, I know." You can draw me a few now, and I'll keep them useful. ”

Fat Dahai followed what the third uncle said, spread out the rune paper, and prepared to draw the talisman with a red pen.

This kind of rune drawing method is not difficult, the fat man according to the method and procedure of drawing runes, move the pen to stimulate the symbols, and the time is not large, so he drew three.

However, due to the limited nature of our Taoism, after the fat man finished drawing three pictures, he couldn't keep up. A layer of sweat oozed from the door of the brain.

The third uncle saw it

Busy stopping: "Alright, alright." Enough is enough. ”

The third uncle took the talisman, put the flat shoulder on his back again, and beckoned us to carry the chicken coop and walk in the direction of the mustard river.

This time we went straight along the river bank and came to a short distance from the head of the bridge.

However, the third uncle did not rush to the front of the bridge, but squatted down more than 30 meters away from the bridge.

I thought he had discovered something, and hurriedly squatted down with Fat Dahai.

The third uncle observed in the direction of the bridge for a while, gently reached out, opened one of the chicken coops, and pulled out the rooster inside.

I don't know what spell the third uncle cast on the chicken, or at night these chickens are much more honest, the third uncle grabbed the chicken's neck, it was very obedient, and did not do any struggle.

The third uncle shoved the chicken into my arms and said, "Big nephew, it's your turn." You hold the chicken and walk from the end of the bridge to the end of the bridge. After getting off the bridge, turn around three times in the same place, then put the chicken on the ground, see if it crows, whether it runs, if it doesn't run, you pick it up again, follow the same path and walk back to the bridge. ”

I was stunned for a moment and asked puzzledly, "Third uncle, what are you doing?" ”

The third uncle waved his hand: "Do it, I'll explain it to you when I have time, it's better if you don't understand than understand." ”

The third uncle's inexplicable answer made me feel guilty. I stared at the third uncle's face, according to the third uncle's practice, it had been a long time since he had cheated me, which was a bit abnormal. This time, I guess he did it again, and the reason why he didn't tell me the truth was because he was afraid that I wouldn't do it if I made it clear.

I wanted to find out more with the third uncle, but I saw him turn around and give an order to Fat Dahai. He was asked to do the same thing as I did, except that after I came back from the bridge, the fat man would carry the chicken up the bridge.

As soon as I saw that even if he wanted to trap me this time, he would have a fat man as his companion, so I gave up the idea of breaking with the third uncle, after all, the big thing is important.

The third uncle looked at the sky and urged me: "Eldest nephew, don't worry, the third uncle knows in his heart that there will be no danger, you just do it." The hour is almost up, hurry up. ”

I nodded, hugged the big, gritted my teeth, walked out with my legs raised, and walked slowly onto the bridge.

The bridge deck is paved with that kind of ancient bluestone slabs, which reflect a faint white luster under the illumination of the moonlight, making the whole bridge deck look extraordinarily cold. The moonlight allows me to see the road under my feet without any lights.

But I looked up at the end of the bridge, and that direction was completely hidden in the darkness.

At this moment, the third uncle shouted in a low voice behind me: "Big nephew, don't look back, just listen to me." When you're leaving, don't look back, no matter what you hear behind you. Remember, whatever it is! In addition, this time I walked over, I couldn't speak, I couldn't make any sound, and I kept my mouth shut. When you hear me, you nod your head and signal me! ”

As soon as I heard the third uncle say this, I understood. Dare to love me, I was tricked by the third uncle again. He first stabilized me with his words, and only when I got on the bridge did he tell me some taboos. At this time, it will be too late for me to pick a child.

I secretly complained in my heart, and now I can only go on hard

Finish. Although I know that the third uncle often cheats me, there is one thing he is right. That is, he knew in his heart that even if I would get into some trouble, I would not be in danger of my life on the whole. Otherwise, I wouldn't have survived intact until now.

The wind was already getting cold as the night fell. On the bridge, there was nothing to cover the surroundings, and the wind blew on the body, which was extremely cold.

Now I was holding a big hairy in my arms, which played a role in keeping me warm, and my chest was also covered with warmth.

I remembered the words of the third uncle, hugged the chicken, and walked towards the end of the bridge step by step.

And the rooster was very honest and obedient to be held by me, without the slightest resistance, but I felt that it was a little unusual.
