Cheng Qi was so depressed that he stayed in Tinglan Water Pavilion for three or four days in a row, eating little every day, only drinking the decoction prescribed by Sui Lang as usual, and lying on the tent bed the rest of the time, as if dead.

She was hit too hard.

A person suddenly travels back to ancient times, wants to live in this strange family, and two years later, if nothing else, he will enter the palace as a concubine, which no one can easily accept.

It's just that on the evening of the sixth day, she was lying on the tent bed, and in a daze, she heard some chaotic footsteps coming upstairs, Cheng Qi opened her eyes, and she saw Mother Zhou, who was beside Mrs. Cheng.

"Weekly ......"

"The girl is offended."

Cheng Qi was puzzled, but Zhou's mother covered her mouth, and then rudely dragged her under the bed, and the man called the servants who were waiting on the second floor, and grabbed Cheng Qi with all hands and feet.

She hadn't eaten well for many days, and she didn't have any strength at all, and those servants were as strong as old men, and they grabbed her like a chicken, and no matter how they were, they struggled in vain.

Under the leadership of Zhou's mother, Cheng Qi was quickly taken by them to the Wuyuan Courtyard, and along the way, she found that the house was usually brightly lit in the evening, but now it was unusually dark.

And when he arrived in the courtyard of the Wuyuan Courtyard, Cheng Qi was even more shocked.

There was an iron bucket in the middle of the courtyard, I don't know what was burning in it, the flames were eight feet high, and all around were scattered ash foam, and the heat and red light hit her face, and she pushed back hard.

And everyone in the house gathered in the semi-open main hall, Mrs. Cheng stood in the middle, looking at Cheng Qi with a worried face, Aunt Meng next to her was even more tearful, and the others also had different looks, but the most was still nervous and scared, everyone gathered together, and no one dared to lean forward.

"What are you going to do!"

Cheng Qi has handled a lot of cases, he has seen a kind of human sacrifice, not to mention that there is a crazy woman tied to the mansion of this country, and the second uncle also tried to kill his stepnephew in vain, is it possible to use his own flesh and blood to pave the way for the future?

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! ”

Cheng Qi was anxious, and he tried his best to hide back, but was easily pushed to the front by Zhou's mother.

As she was shouting, she saw an old woman in tattered clothes walking on the left, good fellow, I don't know if I thought it was a lost person who asked for food.

The woman looked like she was seventy or eighty years old, with black and white hair mixed with curls, dressed in a heavy black robe, obviously a low-profile gypsy in COS, and holding a cracked cane in her hand.

But it was strange that when her wooden cane was put into the iron bucket, it didn't burn, and when she lifted it again, the sparks rose in the air, like red-hot stars.

The onlookers screamed in amazement, only Cheng Dai and Cheng Yan were expressionless, the former was caused by nature, and the latter was obviously impatient and indifferent, it seemed that they didn't believe in these suspenseful witchcraft.

"Desert."

Aunt Meng's voice trembled slightly, and she didn't dare to come closer: "We found you the best evil woman in Xiping, you didn't succeed in doing something stupid last time, I'm afraid that you were attacked by some evil spirit, don't be afraid, wait for the mother-in-law to cast a spell and take off the dirty things on your body, and we'll be fine." ”

Zheng in the second room hugged the two children in his arms, and choked helplessly: "Don't be afraid, desert, this Ma Po is very smart, and any charm will run away when she sees her." ”

Cheng Lan was a little worried: "Why don't you forget it." ”

Aunt Meng told him to shut up: "This is all for the good of the desert, if the evil is not eliminated, what if you do some strange things one day, your reputation is not tight, and your sister's life is hurt." ”

When Cheng Lan heard this, she also felt justified, so she was embarrassed: "Grandma, my brother is here, don't be afraid." ”

Of course Cheng Qi is not afraid, she is going to be angry.

What exorcises countless evil spirits.

It's all superstition!

Rumor!

You fools who seem to only live in the WeChat circle of friends!

"What bullshit sorcery!"

Even if Cheng Qi was pressed, he didn't forget to give them popular science: "This witchcraft is all fake!" That stick was coated with alcohol! That's why it doesn't burn! It's all a trick! You fools who haven't taken a chemistry class! Its chemical formula is C2H5OH+3O2=2CO2+3H2O! ”

When Ma Pozi heard this, she turned her head indifferently.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, Cheng Qi was startled, and said that it was Ma Pozi, but look at the wrinkles on his face, he said that Ma Zuzong also believed it, and what was painted on his face, Indians?

And after hearing these words, Ji Shi glared and said, "What are you talking about in the desert mouth!" Is it a spell! ”

Cheng Qiqi's head was smoking: "It's science!" Modern science! ”

Ma Pozi waved her hand and asked Zhou's mother and others to tie her to the chair not far from the iron bucket, the rough hemp rope grinded her wrists bloody, and the tips of her fingers turned blue due to inactive blood.

Cheng Qi was tied up and couldn't move, and glared at Ma Pozi angrily: "I know you're lying!" Just try to bluff me with a little trick! Dream on, you old bastard! ”

Ji Shi stretched out his hand and pointed and sighed: "Look! The evil in the desert is threatening Ma Pozi! ”

Mrs. Cheng leaned forward anxiously, and Cheng Yunshan hurriedly stopped her: "Mother, be careful." ”

"Desert!"

Mrs. Cheng said anxiously: "You are obedient, it would be good if the evil was removed from us!" ”

Cheng Qi shouted at the top of his voice: "Grandma! I'm not sick! It's this woman who deceives you! ”

Ma Pozi squinted slightly, and the wounds were even hidden in the black robe, and then by this dim light, like an elderly version of Sadako, she took out a handkerchief painted with cinnabar red patterns from her sleeve, and rudely stuffed it into Cheng Qi's mouth when she shouted, and said coldly: "This evil spirit can't come out of your mouth." ”

The bitter and spicy taste was very choking, Cheng Qi's tears came out, she was also a person who knew the times, and knew that there was no way to expose Ma Pozi, so she had to calm down, so as not to be beaten and scolded by her again.

And the rest of the people saw that Cheng Qi was no longer shouting, and they praised Ma Pozi's magical powers.

Cheng Qi rolled his eyes.

It's not that she wants to, but the towel chokes on her throat and retchess a lot.

After doing this, Ma Pozi called the elders in the house to come over, put their hands on each other's shoulders, formed a long line, and walked quickly around the iron bucket, muttering in her mouth: Demons and monsters leave quickly.

Mrs. Cheng loved Sun very much, and hurriedly asked Cheng Yunshan and others to do the same, and she was the head of the team.

They walked around the iron bucket, their mouths full of words, one moment to wave their hands, the other to lift their feet, the next to walk three steps and two steps back, and the next to clap their hands face to face.

And Ma Pozi followed at the end, holding a dirty bowl in her hand, and when she flicked the liquid inside, the flames in the iron bucket jumped high again, illuminating Cheng Qi's somewhat confused face not far away.

Why is this exorcism ritual so familiar?

I'd like I'd seen it somewhere.

Cheng Qi's eyes hurt from the fire, and he pushed the towel out with his tongue, and suddenly remembered.

Isn't this square dancing?

The community is available every day.

At the same time, a popular melody also floated out of Cheng Qi's mind.

- "You are the most beautiful cloud in my sky, let me leave you with my heart, stay!" ”

- "Stay!" ”
