"Look, this monster's eyes are lit up!" The voice of surprise came from the long mouth.

As he said, the monster, which had been broken in two, was dead, but its eyes suddenly flashed a yellow-green light, and then gradually dimmed.

"Damn, I see, everyone come in and close the door!" The stallion exclaimed and beckoned Taka Kato and the others outside the door to come in quickly.

"Ouyang, is the bright light we saw on the top of the mountain all caused by the eyes of this unknown creature?" Takashi Kato asked, his face a little pale.

"I'm afraid that's the case, that is to say, there are countless such monsters entrenched on the glass roof of the entire Daming Palace." I don't think my face looks much better than Takashi Kato's right now.

"If there are so many monsters, why can't I hear a single sound?" Big Ears asked suspiciously.

"Because this is a cat Gu, many of its features are very similar to cats, there is no sound when walking, of course you can't hear it." Takutsu spoke.

"Cat Gu? It's such a strange thing, I've never seen it in any books, Ouyang-san, do you know? Takashi Kato asked.

"The Sui Dynasty once caused a great panic because of a witchcraft, and in the Tang Dynasty, this witchcraft was directly forbidden, and this witchcraft was called the art of cats and ghosts." I suppressed the shock in my heart and said slowly.

At first, I was so frightened by the strange appearance of this monster that I didn't recognize it for a while, until Tatsuku pointed out its origin, and I remembered what my grandfather had taught me in my mind.

"Shao Zhenren Green Capsule Miscellaneous Compilation" said that cats, ghosts, old raccoons, and the essence of wild things have become ghosts, attached to people, humans and animals, to poison people, their diseases, stinging pain in the heart and abdomen, cannibalism in the heart, vomiting blood and dying.

"The Reign and the Wild" records that in the season of the great cause of the Sui Dynasty, cats and ghosts started, and the family raised cats, which was disgusting and quite spiritual. handed over false accusations, and the county was sentenced, more than 1000 families. Shu Wangxiu sat down. Thousands of people have been sentenced for this witchcraft, which shows its fierceness.

These are the earliest vague accounts, while the official official accounts are as follows:

"Sui Shu, Biography of Foreign Relatives, Dugu Tuo" once had a cloud: "Tuo maid Xu Aniyan, originally from Tuo's mother's house, often cats and ghosts. Worship it day and night. The speaker is also a rat. Every time the cat ghost kills someone, the property of the deceased family is hidden in the house of the cat ghost. When he tasted the vegetarian wine from home, his wife said, 'There is no money to drink.' "Toyin said to Ani, "You can make the cat ghost go to the Yue Gong's house, so that I have enough money." 'Ani cursed him. ’。

"Book of Sui, Biography of the Queen, Literature of Queen Dugu" also recorded: "The half-brother Tuo, with a cat ghost and witch Gu, cursed the queen, and sat down to die." ”

The above Sui Dynasty royal cat ghost incident, the original text is too much, so I won't say much, and it is briefly translated into the vernacular as follows:

Dugu Tuo, the younger brother of Dugu Jialuo, the queen of Emperor Wen of Sui, is an otaku, he doesn't like to look for flowers and willows, he doesn't like poetry, songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, he doesn't like to ride and shoot and hunt and party, but he likes to study evil Taoism, his maternal grandmother Gao raised cat ghosts, so Dugu Tuo also mastered the breeding technology of cat ghosts, because of his exquisite skills, famous far and wide.

One day, Dugu Jialuo, the empress of Emperor Wen of Sui, and Yang Su, the wife of Yang Su, the prince of Yueguo, these two beautiful women who were originally alive and kicking suddenly fell ill at the same time.

Although Emperor Wen of Sui is a strict wife, he has true love for Dugu Jialuo, so he was anxious, so he invited many doctors to come and see them.

At that time, many doctors were proficient in occult arts, and at a glance they knew that this was a disease caused by a cat ghost, so Emperor Wen of Sui suspected that this matter was done by the sorcery otaku Dugu Tuo, who stayed at home, so he ordered to investigate him.

But Dugutuo is not an ordinary person, the emperor's relatives are not easy to mess with, and at that time, there was no such institution as the Zongren Mansion.

Just when the case handling officials were out of whack, they finally found a breakthrough in a person, Dugutuo's maidservant Xu Ani confessed that she used mice to raise cat ghosts, and every time the cat ghost killed someone, the victim's family's property would be secretly transferred to the family that raised cat ghosts.

It turned out that the cause of the incident was that Dugutuo once asked his family for wine, and his wife said that he had no money to buy wine.

Dugutuo couldn't get the money to buy wine, so he was very anxious, and his wife saw that Dugutuo was anxious again, that is, it was the rhythm of domestic violence, she was afraid, so she said to Ani that she could let the cat ghost go to Yue Gong (Yang Su)'s house to get some money.

So, Ani cursed Yang Su, and a few days later, the cat ghost went to Yang Su's house, and sure enough, he got a lot of money.

Dugutuo originally thought that cat ghosts could only kill people, but he didn't expect that he could still make money, and since then, Comrade Dugutuo has opened the door to a new world.

Later, Emperor Wen of Sui took Empress Dugu Jialuo back from a trip to Bingzhou, Dugu Tuo thought to himself, he has been getting money from Yang Su's house, which is not very good, and he will leave a little for others, but who should he find to get the money? By the way, my queen's sister has a lot of money, so she told Ani in the garden that she could let the cat ghost go to the queen and let it give me more money, so that I could buy the latest Moutai and a hundred years of Lafite, so Ani cursed the queen again, and the cat ghost entered the palace.

Yang Yuan (the official investigating the case) was frightened after hearing this, if this Nima is killed by the queen, it will not only be you who will die, but I, the person who handled the case, will also lose my head because of my poor work.

So Yang Yuan asked Ani to call back the cat ghost quickly, so Ani placed a pot of fragrant porridge at night, and called out with a spoon to the porridge basin: "Cat son, come back quickly, don't peep at the queen in the palace taking a bath!" ”

Soon after, Ani's face became yellow and black, as if possessed by a ghost, saying that the cat ghost had returned, of course, the queen and others were also cured, and Emperor Wen of Sui was furious and wanted to kill Dugutuo and his wife.

However, Queen Dugu cared about her family affection and went on a hunger strike for three days to intercede, and her other younger brother Dugu also begged bitterly, so Emperor Wen of Sui had to spare him the death penalty and demote Dugutuo to a commoner.

Dugutuo did not have a royal residence to engage in scientific research, and died of depression soon after.

Through this incident, it can be shown that Emperor Wen of Sui is a Ming monarch, and the emperor's brother-in-law actually has no money to buy wine to drink.

This event is recorded in the official history "Book of Sui" and Sima Guang's "Zizhi Tongjian", so the credibility is quite high.

Later, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty ascended the throne, thanking his uncle Dugutuo for his contribution to the science and technology of the Sui Dynasty, and posthumously awarded him the title of Yinqing Guanglu Doctor.

Legend has it that the witchcraft of Miao Jiang is also related to cat ghosts, and Emperor Wen of Sui has ordered the collection of cat ghosts, bewitchment, and charm and other wild road houses to be exiled to the frontier because of the great harm caused by cat ghost witchcraft.

Later, these sorcerers who were exiled to the frontier brought witchcraft to the frontier and became what we know today as Miaojiang witchcraft, Nanyang head-lowering technique, etc.

To sum up, in view of this, the Tang Dynasty after the Sui Dynasty directly used the law to clearly stipulate: it is forbidden to use the witchcraft of cats and ghosts!

Other evidence also includes the "Tang Dynasty Discussion", which stipulates: "Those who create cat ghosts and teach the methods of cat ghosts are hanged; Family members or those who know but do not report it will all travel 3,000 miles. "I won't repeat more historical sources.

"As soon as Ouyang explained this, it became clear to me that this was basically the same as the principle of Fusang's Yin-Yang Dao, but I had never seen it, so I never believed it. Fusang's Yin-Yang Dao really originated in the Tang Dynasty and then began to grow and develop. Takashi Kato said.

"Ouyang's popular explanation of the cat ghost, I give ten points, but now I just want to know, is there a way to crack this witchcraft? While it's safer to be in the house now, let's do some research. The stallion said.

"There's a way to crack it, but there's no way to use it, and besides, it's not safe here." Taku's vigilant voice came from me, and I felt a little bad.
