The old man, unwilling to miss the hour, ordered his son, a fool in his thirties, to immediately slaughter the chicken, and with his left hand he grabbed the wings of the big rooster from behind, and carried the rusty kitchen knife in the other hand. \\。 QВ5, cǒm//The method of slaughtering a chicken is nothing more than "one wipe and one cut", dragging the blade on the neck of the chicken, cutting the blood and trachea, and when the chicken's blood is exhausted, the chicken will die of anger; A chop is a kitchen knife to cut down and cut off the head of the chicken, but the rooster is the most violent, after the head of the chicken falls. The headless chicken's body will still be flying around because the nerves in the body have not completely died, and the situation is very bloody and terrifying.

But in the family of the mountain people, the slaughter of chickens and geese is the most common, looking at the posture of the old man's son, he plans to use the method of cutting off the head of the chicken. Partridge Whistle and Chen Blind looked at each other, the two of them wanted to take a chicken and poultry from the mountain people's house, originally effortlessly, even if it was not forcible robbery, just shoot a golden "big yellow croaker", and they would not be able to buy it. However, the master of Zalou Mo should have any gold bars, so that his identity would inevitably be exposed, and now he had to act at the opportunity, got up and walked forward, and stopped the mountain people from slaughtering chickens.

These two are the leaders of the Jiangyang thieves who kill people and goods in the green forest. It is not a small thief, although he is dressed as a Zha Lou ink master, but he still can't hide the tiger's walk in his hands and feet, and he speaks casually, and he also has a faint deterrent temperament.

The father and son of the mountain people were stopped by them twice and three times, and they couldn't slaughter the rooster, although they were annoyed, but they listened to their words and demeanors, but they didn't dare to get angry easily, only a complaint was indispensable: "This group of Zalou ink masters is so uninteresting, I feed the chickens and poultry in my own house with one meter and one water, kill them if you want to, keep them if you want to, no matter how you clean them up, they are all our own books, even the king of heaven can't manage these ......"

When the blind man Chen saw that the partridge whistle insisted on buying this chicken, he already understood eight or nine points in his heart. The rooster is the nemesis of the centipede's mortal enemy, and this chicken is handsome and extraordinary, and it is expected that the six-winged centipede in the ancient tomb will also be scared of it.

He rolled his eyes, thought about it, smiled at the old man, and clenched his fists: "I have disturbed the business of your house one after another, and I hope that your husband will forgive your sins." The three brothers and sisters were, who were not originally biological, were all brothers and sisters who were recognized in the teacher when they were studying art. With a piece of building skills for a living, in this troubled times, but never give up, there is a mouthful of water, to be divided into three parts to drink, to get a piece of dry food, but also to break into three petals to eat. Just because he cut off the head of the chicken in front of the ancestral master's throne, burned the yellow paper, and made a gesture of worshiping the son and forming a concentric move, although he did not dare to compare himself with Taoyuan, but that set of oaths is still in his ears, the emperor and the queen of the earth, the gods and men have learned together, and they have sworn to the chicken, if there is the slightest violation, the end will be like the head of the chicken that was beheaded, so my brothers and sisters made a big wish, never eat chicken, and I can't see another family slaughtering chickens, and I will make money to redeem the chicken's life. ”

Chen Blind Yan fabricated some root causes, and then resorted to the usual tricks, saying that this chicken feather is colorful, eyes like a star, absolutely unusual, killing it is really ominous, light to invite disaster and cause trouble, and the main family will be missing people, and will be robbed by "swords and soldiers". The ink master carpenter, since ancient times, has had Lu Ban's secret skills, and he is good at winning 1, and he will also put the next battle charm in the door. It is said that there is a family that was rich, but after moving to a new house, the family fortune plummeted, fortunately with the guidance of the master, I knew that when the house was built, the carpentry silver money was deducted, and the ink master was pressed at home to win the technique, and the result was dismantled the wall foundation pillars, sure enough, under the four pillars, there was a carriage full of copper coins, all of which were made of cardboard, and the direction of the carriage of the four cities pointed to the four directions, as if it was carrying money to the outside of the house. This is the carpenter's secret formation, after being discovered, the master family did not destroy the four paper carriages, but turned them around, and transported wealth to the family from the outside in, and then the wealth was rolling in.

Although this is just a folk legend, it can show that the magic of the ink master has existed since ancient times, so the common people have never doubted that the Mo master of Zha Lou knows the arts. The blind man took advantage of this to be alarmist, moved with affection, understood with reason, and told their brothers and sisters about the oath they had made to the chicken, and in the final analysis, there was only one purpose, that is, to please this big rooster that was not like a mortal thing.

Chen Blind Man has a broad mind, talks loudly, and does his best to be opportune, it is the wealth and wealth that are casually determined, and the good and evil take advantage of the heart, and only hope to bring the old man's mind to life. But who knew that the old man was like a hard-hearted man, and he didn't eat his set at all, so he shook his head and said to them: "The ink masters only know one thing, but they don't know the other, if I take this."

A rooster was given to you, but it really made you get into trouble, how can you do it easily because of this thing that does not accumulate yin virtue? This chicken is not a chicken, but a monster, you descendants, haven't you heard of the reason that dogs are not eight years old, and chickens are not six years? ”

Blind Chen and Partridge Whistle had not thought of these old folk customs before, but when they heard this, they suddenly realized that they were secretly saying: "Ah, yes, it turned out to be a chicken slaughtered for this matter!" "It turns out that the old man is under the door of the Golden Mansion Thunder Altar, and there are two major Thunder Altars in the mountainous area of Xiangxi, Hu and Jin, both of which are very famous Taoist gates. There are Taoists and monks in these Taoist sects, who are good at using Chenzhou Fu, and for hundreds of years, they have specialized in making a living by driving corpses and delivering water, solving Gu and driving away drugs. In recent years, the warlords have been fighting, the people are not living, and the weather in the Daomen has already declined to the point where it used to be, and there are many people like the old man who live in the sparsely populated mountains.

"Yi Demon" is an ancient book, which began to circulate from the time of the Three Kingdoms and the Two Jin Dynasty, focusing on the strange phenomena in the world, what is a demon? In "Yi Demon", it is believed that those who do not conform to common sense are "demons", and the special phenomena that do not conform to common sense in the world are all a kind of harbinger of chaos in the world or a catastrophe. The source of the saying "dogs do not have eight years, chickens have no six years" is the theory in "Yi Demon", under the feudal superstition of the old society, people are convinced of this abound.

This statement refers to the chickens, dogs, and livestock raised at home, which cannot be fed for too many years, because once they survive in human society for too long, they come into contact with human beings every day, and they listen to people's every move, and they also see their every move, so that they gradually understand human nature, and sooner or later they will become spirits and demons, and do some evil things that endanger the world.

It is said that there was a rich family in those years, the family of male brothers and female slaves in a group, he raised a white dog in the house, the dog is empathetic, very liked, often do not leave the rich man half a step, go out to play also carry around. Later, the rich man suddenly fell ill and died, and his family buried him, but the old white dog raised by the rich man disappeared immediately, and people thought that the dog was attached to the owner, and when the owner died, it ran away sadly, or died somewhere, and did not take it too seriously.

Who knew that after the death of the rich man, a whole year passed, one night, the rich man suddenly returned home, and the family thought that the deceased had deceived the corpse, and they were all shocked, but looking at his words and deeds, they were the same as before his death. He himself said that a year ago due to a coma of stuffiness, so he was treated as a violent illness and died, was buried alive in the grave, fortunately met a Taoist priest passing by the cemetery, by chance, rescued him, he followed the Taoist to visit the famous mountains and five mountains, until today to return.

The family was happy to see that the rich man could not die, so everything was as usual, and the rich man was the same as before, and the taste habits of eating tea and rice had not changed, and he dealt with the big and small things in the family during the day, with clear rewards and punishments, and taught people to be convinced and respected, and at night he slept with his three wives and four concubines one by one, so that after more than half a year, the family was well and prosperous. But one day it happened to be his birthday, and he drank heartily during the banquet at night, drank a few more glasses, and the wine gushed up, so he fell asleep on the desk. Suddenly, a dark wind blew outside the door, and the lights and candles in the hall were extinguished, and a servant hurriedly re-turned the lamp, wanting to help the old man into the inner hall to rest. Unexpectedly, under the light, there was no rich man, only a white-haired old dog, curled up on the Taishi's chair and sleeping soundly, with a mouth full of wine. Everyone was shocked, only to know that the rich man had died a long time ago, and now this is clearly a monster, so he quickly took advantage of its sleep to chop eight pieces with a knife, and set fire to destroy the remains.

Legends like this were so widespread in the period from the Qin and Han dynasties to the Jin Dynasty that not only ordinary people believed in them, but even scholars often talked about them. These demons are all special signs, or the main sword and fire, or the lord and the king have no way. In later generations, those theories of signs and signs were gradually no longer mentioned, but as for those who raised cats, dogs, chickens and ducks at home, they refused to raise dogs for eight years, nor chickens and poultry for six years. Because many people believe that these animals have lived in the world for a long time, and when they witness the various behaviors of the world, their hearts will feel that after the six years and eight years of life, they may do some evil things that ordinary people cannot believe, and they must not be prevented, and Confucius said "Do not be with birds and beasts."

The old man who wants to slaughter the chicken in Jinfeng Village, has raised this big rooster for nearly six years, this rooster is brilliant, there are countless chicken eggs in the village, but only the chicken eggs in his house hatch this chicken, the rest of the eggs are empty shells, must be the aura of heaven and earth, so it has always been precious and cherished, fed with fine food every day, and this big rooster has not lived up to the love of the owner, the most poisonous insects and pit vipers in the mountains, it is the great trouble of the mountain people, the rooster patrols under the stilted building day and night, pecks poisonous insects, and the golden rooster cries at dawn every day, and it is not cool at all, It's more accurate than a chiming bell, so I'm reluctant to kill it. However, six years have arrived, and then I am afraid that it is ominous, according to the old practice, before dark today, the chicken must be killed and blooded, otherwise once something goes wrong, it must be ruthless, so feed it a full meal, sharpen the kitchen knife to be slaughtered on the spot.

Blind Chen finally understood the reason, if it was a different situation, he would be able to trick this rooster out. But the six-year-old chickens and poultry have always been ominous, if they are left and not killed, it must be bad luck for the main family. The mountain people of Xiangxi are convinced of this, and seeing that this old man has a good temper, how can he change his mind? I'm afraid that even if I give him two big yellow croaker, I won't want to, but now I can't say anything, so I have to use some means to come out.

As soon as the thought in his mind turned, he winked at the red girl. The red girl nodded secretly, she was good at the Moon Gate Ancient Color Trick. There are many secret means like organs in the ancient color tricks, known as "sticky, pendulum, close, pass, month, farewell, push, open", among which the "moon" word trick is a kind of means similar to the method of blinding, even if the viewer is close to the eyes, can not see how the caster crosses the mountains and seas, shifts and changes things, the artist of the moon gate is the best at this technique, as long as the red girl moves, you can cover the big rooster in front of the father and son of the mountain people, let you be a fiery eye, and you can't see how she acts, Although they saw that they were taken out of thin air by a group of Zha Lou Mo masters, they could not find physical evidence, and there was no reason to talk about it.

The red girl was about to make a move, but she saw the partridge whistle put her hand in her sleeve, only to show the two points out, and shook it slightly, this is the code of gesture contact in the green forest, it is to tell her and Chen Blind not to act rashly, to provoke movement in the village, although it is not difficult to get out, but it will ruin the plan to steal the ancient tomb of Bottle Mountain.

Chen Blind and the Red Girl knew that the mountain movers might have their own clever plans, so they couldn't bear it and watched the changes, but secretly they also seemed to come to the father and son of the mountain people intentionally or unintentionally.

I only heard the partridge whistle say to the old man: "The dog is not eight years, the chicken is not six years, it is true that there is this old precedent, but there are no strange things in the world, and there are many people who cannot be judged by the old precedent. ”

The old man saw that the partridge whistle looked calm, and said lightly, don't look at this person's youth, even if he is really a Zalou ink master, he is by no means an idle character, but he doesn't believe that he can say any real words to refute it, at most it is the same as the statement of the blind man, a charlatan trick with a mouth full of smoke bubbles and a ghost blowing the lamp, and what does it matter if you listen to him. Thinking of this, he said, "Okay, I'll listen to what you can think of this future life, and if you can convince me, I'll give you this rooster for nothing." In fact, I am reluctant to slaughter it, but the old precedent is here, how dare I violate it? At that time, you, the post-graduate ink master, will not be able to say anything, but Hugh will do more to hinder my family from killing chickens. ”

Partridge Whistle already had an idea, he didn't want to make a clever move in the green forest road to the ordinary mountain people, and now he was waiting for the old man's words, the two of them high-fived and swore an oath, and immediately raised their hands to ask for the colorful feather rooster from the mountain people's hands. I saw that although this big rooster was dying, I didn't know whether it didn't understand or was not afraid, and it didn't struggle and flutter, staring with his head high, his expression was awe-inspiring, like a calm and calm demeanor of a general in the army.

The partridge whistle let everyone take a closer look at this rooster, although the example of "dogs are not eight years, chickens are not six years" is an ancient custom, and people today are more convinced, naturally it is impossible not to follow. All domestic chickens and poultry refuse to give it six years of life, but this chicken is not a chicken, but it is not necessary to follow this example.

The old man shook his head again and again when he heard this, and the blind man Chen also secretly complained, thinking: "It's a shame that you, Partridge Whistle, as the leader of the mountain, actually said that this big rooster is not a chicken, what is it if it is not a chicken?" Is it a bird? The three-year-old child didn't believe it, how could this convince the old man, it seems that he had to follow the old example of our green forest ringing horses...... Just snatched it and went. ”

Before the partridge whistled to finish speaking, when he saw that the people did not believe him, he continued: "All the chickens and birds in the world have eyelids that grow in the opposite way to the human eye, and the human eyelids are born from above, and the upper eyelids can move and blink, while the eyelids of chickens and birds are born from the bottom. Let's take a look, how are the eyelids of this rooster growing? ”

The old man never paid attention to this, but who doesn't know the chickens and birds under their eyelids? Take a closer look, the big rooster with colorful feathers and roaring angrily is really the same as human eyes, with eyelids on it, if you don't deliberately look at it, you really ignore this detail, even the well-informed Chen Blind Man and the Red Girl are also surprised, and they all say: "Why is this?" ”

Partridge Whistle said, "The eyelids grow like this because they are not chickens." ”

Hearing this, everyone was still confused, not chickens and birds, but what was it?

The partridge whistle was also reluctant to show off the secret art of treasure with them, and bluntly said: "Xiangxi has had the totem of the phoenix bird since ancient times, and the place name is mostly related to the legend of the phoenix in ancient times, just like this county, called Nuqing County." Angry Qing is the image of the wind, the eyelids of chickens and birds are born on it, and they also have colorful feathers and golden claws, how can they be ordinary chickens and birds? It is simply a rare and extraordinary phoenix species, and it is a Nuqing chicken that only in Nuqing County, Xiangxi, is available in the world! ”——
