At first, He Changming thought that this practice was just a ritual, but in fact, it had no substantive effect.

But as the old man's pace became more and more weird, He Changming suddenly felt a different feeling.

It felt like something terrible had appeared, but the aura was so faint that it seemed to disappear in the next second.

The old man had finished his strange dance steps, and the incense was almost burned.

Seeing this, He Changming also had to admire the old man's energy, you must know that a stick of incense will be burned for nearly twenty minutes, and when the incense is not burned, the old man's pace cannot be stopped.

The old man who came to do things for He Changming this time was the most prestigious and oldest one in the village.

But looking at the old man's appearance, it doesn't look like a feeling of tiredness.

As the incense burned out, the old man also sat down cross-legged opposite He Changming.

After sitting cross-legged, the old man picked up the glutinous rice and sprinkled it on the broken blanket in a strange pattern.

This pattern is a bit like gossip, but it doesn't have the hexagram of gossip.

Said that it was a circle, and there was a gap on it, He Changming once thought that the old man had not finished painting, but as the old man poured the rice wine on it, the rice wine slowly flowed over the edge of these patterns, and this strange pattern instantly "lived"!

In He Changming's eyes, this pattern on the ground was like a fiery snake, constantly twisting its torso, as if it was coveting something.

He Changming and the snake glanced at each other, but found that there were two phantom shadows on the snake's head, just like dragon horns.

Is this Jiao?

Just when He Changming was looking carefully, the old man had already put the rooster on top of the glutinous rice, and the snake coiled around the chicken's body and looked at He Changming coldly.

"Okay, Housheng, you put your hand on the chicken's head."

He Changming hesitated for a while, but still did so.

It's just that as soon as he put his hand up, the snake instantly became dozens of times bigger, stood in front of him, looked at him coldly, and then bit down on him.

He Changming's eyes widened, and when he just wanted to dodge, he saw that the snake was just a phantom, and it passed directly through his body.

And the bad things on his body, with the passage of the snake shadow, all disappeared.

Could it be that the snake was eating something bad from itself?

He Changming looked left and right, no longer saw the trace of the snake, and the aura of the rooster was all gone, if someone tasted this rooster, they would feel that the rooster tasted like chewing wax, and it was extremely unpalatable.

"Okay, Housheng, I wish you a smooth, safe and healthy new year!"

When the ritual was done, the old man smiled and handed him a glass of rice wine, which was the rest of the rice wine that had just been poured out.

"Drink this!"

He Changming took the rice wine, and when he dried it all in one go, he felt that his body was instantly filled with strength, which was incredible.

In the past, when I didn't practice, I obviously couldn't feel anything, but now after I practice, I discovered the mystery of this practice in my village?

What is the principle of this ritual? Why does a snake appear like a dragon, and why is it able to produce such an energy exchange?

He Changming became more and more curious about this ritual, and after the old man finished the ritual, he did not throw away these things, but wrapped them in a broken blanket and walked out of the door.

"Third grandfather, where are you going?"

In the past, when he was doing the rituals, he either slept or was absent-minded, and he never cared about what happened after the rituals.

"This will be paid as a tribute to the mountain god, and the mountain god will bless you." , the third grandfather explained.

He Changming followed curiously, and saw that the third grandfather walked to the dog tomb mountain behind their village, and threw these things into a cave behind the dog tomb mountain.

He Changming remembered that his grandmother never let him come here, saying that there were man-eating ghosts on Dog Tomb Mountain, and He Changming listened to his grandmother very much, so he never came to Dog Tomb Mountain, except for the funeral of his grandmother.

So this cave behind Inu's Tomb Mountain, he knew it for the first time.

The third grandfather threw down the broken blanket and those sacrifices together, He Changming didn't hear the sound of those things falling to the ground, and he didn't know if it was because of the broken blanket or because it was deep underneath.

After the third grandfather did this, he turned around and saw He Changming looking at this cave curiously, and admonished: "Hou Sheng, don't mess around with this place in the future, this is not a good place." ”

Seeing that the third grandfather seemed to know something, He Changming asked, "Third grandfather, why do you say that, are there any fierce beasts in here?" ”

Seeing that He Changming seemed to be very interested, the third grandfather's face changed greatly: "This is something ten million times more terrifying than a beast, go back quickly!" Go back! ”

After that, he didn't say anything to He Changming anymore, but just pushed He Changming out of here.

The more the third grandfather wanted to cover it up like this, the more curious He Changming became.

Unexpectedly, the third grandfather also told his father about it, and when the father and son were eating and chatting in the evening, Father He talked about it.

"Changming, your third grandfather told me today that you seem to be very interested in the cave in Inu Tomb Mountain, is there such a thing?"

He Changming nodded: "Dad, you also know that I am now half a monk, so I will naturally be interested in these things that the gods are talking about." ”

Seeing that He Changming admitted it so simply, Father He didn't want to blame He Changming for anything, but just said to him seriously: "It's a very dangerous place there, don't go around!" Even your master wouldn't dare to go to that cave casually! ”

Shan Hongzi also knows about this cave?

He Changming rolled his eyes and said, "Dad, since you don't let me go there, you have to tell me about the situation there, so I won't be curious!" ”

Father He glanced at He Changming, doesn't he know his own son?

That's the guy who talks a thing and never tells him the truth.

But it's good to tell He Changming, he will always have a long memory, and he won't think about that place every day.

So Father He cleared his throat and said, "That is the burial place of the mountain god near us, and it is said that the mountain god near us has given birth to a mountain god, and it is a snake that has not yet turned into a dragon. Although this snake has not turned into a dragon, it has also turned its hands into clouds and covered its hands into rain, and has been guarding this mountain range. But four hundred years ago, a Taoist priest passed by, not to say that this mountain god is a demon snake, to cut it for the people to eliminate harm, this Taoist priest is really powerful, the mountain god defeated, but also cut out its inner Dan, peeled off the skin of the mountain god, and finally this mountain range because there is no protection of the mountain god, it becomes very dangerous, the people who live here, in order to commemorate the mountain god, secretly built a temple for it, is the hole you see. ”

A cave as a temple? What is this operation?

"In the past, there were still ordinary people who went there to worship the mountain god, but I don't know if the mountain god was resentful or what, the people who went there died inexplicably, so no one went to that place again, and the practice was passed down by your grandfather, saying that it was beneficial to Hejia Village, so we did it."

Such a story with no beginning and no end is really strange, is it really like what Daddy He told?

Although He Changming listened to the story, his heart had already drifted to the cave and wanted to find out......
