Chapter 120: The Bear Cub
I fell with a golden flicker. I almost fainted, a huge breath in my stomach rushed through my throat, and I felt a heart-piercing pain in my throat at that time, and then I coughed violently, and the sound continued one after another, so that I couldn't breathe, at this time, Mao Qinglian got up from the ground, helped me beat my back, and asked me if it mattered, I coughed and said, "It doesn't matter, my throat was strangled just now, I just want to cough." ”
I coughed for a while, I felt that my breath was smooth, although my neck hurt, but it was not a big deal, I rubbed my neck, and then grabbed Qinglian's hand and said to her, "Qinglian, thank you for saving me." ”
Qinglian was grabbed by my hand, and quickly lowered his head and said, "Don't say that, didn't you also save me?" It was you who pushed me away just now, and I was fine. ”
After saying that, I lowered my head a little shyly, and I could clearly see her blushing cheeks, and then I noticed that it was already dawn, and although there was fog around, I could see it clearly. At this time, Mao Qinglian said: "Zhendong, we seem to be far away from the wooden house, and the big trees around here are so weird. ”
I hurriedly looked around, and found that the ancient trees here were craggy, those big branches were flourishing, and the big ones were one or two hug thick, and the location where we were was was a big tree, and the big tree was entwined by some vines, one by one, some hung on the ground, and some hung on the tree, and above our heads, there were two tree vines, one was pulled into the shape of a hanging rope, and one was cut off by me with an evil knife, and not far from the tree vines, there were two little weasels hanging, and the two weasels were already dead of anger, hanging straight there, and the mountain wind blew, It was dangling in the air, and it looked indescribably weird.
Seeing this, I understood everything, and said to Qing Lian: "Yes, we are far away, it must be the old weasel spirit who led us here and wants to kill us here." Look at those two little weasels, they are specially designed to exchange lives with us. ”
Mao Qinglian said: "Change your life? You're talking about a weasel changing his life? ”
I nodded and said, "Yes, the weasel is different from other animal fairies, it likes to be noisy, likes to brag, and likes to jump around, so in the countryside, those who are possessed by weasel children either jump and jump, and there they either tear their clothes and sing, or cry noisily."
All this kind of people, all eyes glazed, timid as a mouse, walking on tiptoe at the root of the wall, but the countrymen are in awe of the weasel like a tiger, mainly afraid of the weasel's revenge, the weasel you have also seen, generally not very big, but its body is flexible, the action is extremely fast, the temperament is cunning and suspicious, the work is vicious, and is good at defending himself with stinky farts, and it is even more demagogic to deceive people. This kind of thing does not kill people directly, but can exchange people's lives. ”
Mao Qinglian said: "Replace people's lives? ”
I nodded and said, "Yes, you know these animal immortals, killing people is one of the eighteen felonies, so all animals who practice and want to become positive fruits will not kill people easily, and weasel spirits are different, they kill juniors, and then go to change people's lives, we are at night, it is to offend the weasel spirit, so it calls two juniors, and then hangs the little weasel on the tree first, and then leads us here, you can see the two hanging weasels over there." ”
When I saw two hanged weasels, I walked over, and I also stood up and followed, looked at the hanged little weasel, and muttered there: "I can't imagine that the weasel is so cruel and hangs his junior with his own hands." ”
When I heard this, I breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Weasels are not cruel compared to people, and our experience along the way tells us that people are sometimes inferior to beasts, okay, let's not talk about this, let's go back quickly, otherwise they will be worried about the king." ”
Mao Qinglian nodded, and then said to me with a red face: "Zhendong, can you hold my hand?" In this barren mountain and forest, just the two of us, I am a little scared and don't want to be separated from you a little. ”
I smiled and said, "Of course, I said I would protect you." ”
After finishing speaking, I walked over and grabbed Mao Qinglian's hand, her hand was very soft, and she grabbed it like nephrite in her hand, my heart beat faster, and my face was a little feverish, so I had to think about something else, I didn't dare to think about Mao Qinglian's hand all the time, and then I forced myself to think about the weasel animal. Weasel is very interesting, and at that time, all our villages would have weasels like this.
The weasel has the suspiciousness of a mouse, the ferocity of a wolf, and the magical possession ability. Yellow immortals rely on their upper bodies to manifest their spirits, which means that weasels must use their human bodies to show their various magical and strange talents. Now the upper body of Huang Xian is still said to be superstitious or hysterical, and no one can explain it clearly.
The so-called Huangxian upper body, is not casual, it is possessed by a standard, this is a bit like the emperor to choose a concubine, according to my experience in the countryside, it selects the criteria, generally there are the following kinds, first, mostly middle-aged women, the age can be defined in the beginning of the onset of thirty to forty-five years old, that is, suddenly the upper body of the Huangxian, and then speak, chanting mantras to cure the disease, that is, it is said that women after marriage will get sick, little girls are generally rare.
Second, these women are generally not in good health, at that time, people were poor, sick or something, they would be hard to support, tired, malnourished, and the relationship between husband and wife was not good, although they seemed to be strong, but they all had very private gynecological diseases, and their pain can be imagined.
Third, these women are generally part of a large family. The big family refers to several families in this village where there are many brothers with the same surname and prosperous people. Generally speaking, there will only be one woman in each family who will be able to take on the responsibility of the possession of the yellow immortal, and once selected, it will be borne for life.
This is the goddess Zhuang said, generally speaking, the first onset of the disease is an omen, generally the first possession is after getting angry, at that time it can be said that the poor couple is sad, poor, and trivial things, it is inevitable that they will not be angry, especially the unspeakable sullenness. The second is when you are sad: when the old man dies, her husband is sad, her children are unfilial, sad, depressed, and her heart is sad, which often arouses the pity of Huang Xian. Third, he was emotional, scolded others, and was angry to death. At this time, it is possible to be possessed, but it is said that the weasel spirit is taking advantage of the void, so in this life, if you can be less angry, you will be less angry, and if you think about everything, you will have a lot less trouble.
We walked forward, and we were secretly frightened as we went, and when we came up last night, we remembered that it was flat ground, but now we were on a steep mountain, full of strange rocks and cliffs, and we thought that we were really fatal, and that weasel spirit had not wanted to hang us, and led us to the cliff casually, and then walked forward, and our little life would have been over.
Looking at the strange rocks everywhere, we felt a chill down our spine, at this time, there was a sudden roar of wild beasts in front of us, we were shocked, there were wild beasts fighting in the woods, and now I regret throwing away the gun, and I also regret that I didn't bring the gun at any time.
The roar of the beast grew louder and louder, and we wanted to see what it was there, and the woods were overgrown with trees, and some small shrubs were mixed in, and we walked cautiously downward, and when we came to a large rock, we felt that the cry was not far in front of us.
The two of us crouched there, carefully picking up the little bushes, and looked there, only to see a little bear roaring there, and it was nothing else that preyed on the bear, but a weasel. The bear cub is not big, it looks like a bear cub, it has black and brown hair, it is obviously injured, the bear hair on its body, some of it sticks together, it is caused by bleeding, the bear cub is stupid, howling, and slapping the weasel with the bear's paw.
It is said that the camel that was killed was bigger than the horse, and although the bear cub was not big, it was relative, not big than the big bear, but compared to the weasel, it was still huge, and the pair of bear paws slapped on the head and snapped, and the sound spread far and wide. We were all terrified when we heard it, if we slapped it on the weasel's body, it would definitely be able to slap the weasel flat at once.
