Chapter Sixty-Four: The Living Sacrifice Takes the Opportunity to Lead the Drought
"They want to sacrifice my child to the god of drought, and after sacrificing to the god of drought, a mountain spring will flow out of the mountain, and I don't want to exchange the child for water to drink." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" The middle-aged man also cried.
"Hmph, you just think about your own home, do you still want the whole village to die of thirst with you? Our children also sacrificed to the god of drought last year, you think I am willing, this is all a helpless thing, woo......" A woman was scolding them, but she also cried as she spoke.
When they cried, Tianchu found that many people in the crowd also wiped their tears, could it be that this living sacrifice was not once or twice, and after realizing the seriousness of the matter, Tianchu decided to start negotiations with these villages.
"Folks, we are Taoist priests, specializing in catching ghosts and taking demons, if there are any demons and monsters in your village, we will definitely help you get rid of them, please believe us, don't do anything hurtful to heaven and reason."
Hearing Tianchu say this, there was a commotion among the villagers, and then the village chief stood up again, sighed, his tone eased a lot, and he said helplessly: "Don't hide it, we are afraid of tossing, there was no drought like this in the early years, and we have also thought of a lot of ways to get rid of the drought, hey!" ”
The old village chief sighed and talked about their struggle against drought over the years.
This drought has lasted for five years, and in the first two years, everyone thought that it was an occasional bad year, and it didn't take it seriously when there was a drought or something, but the big deal was that the harvest was not good, but as time went by, the drought not only did not converge, but became more and more serious, and even the river became less water.
The village invited a Taoist priest to see if there was a problem with feng shui, and the Taoist priest scared the villagers half to death with a sentence, saying that there was a drought in the village, and as long as the drought was burned, it would rain.
The Taoist priest said that the corpses of the dead who had become drought fish did not rot, no grass grew on the graves, and the graves seeped water, so the village launched a large-scale activity of digging up the graves and exhuming the corpses, turning the village upside down, and finally no matter when the dead people were killed, all of them were dug up and burned.
But the corpse was burned out, and the rain didn't come down, this move was self-defeating, and it really provoked the drought fish, although everyone didn't see the real body of the drought fish, but the powerful heat of that moment still made everyone remember it vividly, almost all the water was sucked up in an instant, and even the poor wisp of water in the river evaporated instantly, and even the villagers fainted because of too much water loss.
In a daze, a loud voice came from the ground, and he said: "In order to punish you, in the future, a pair of boys and girls will be paid every year to have water to drink, and if you don't obey, you will wait for death." ”
As the drought man said, it was really dry that there was no drop of water, and it was okay to insist on it for a day or two, but after a long time, the villagers couldn't stand it, and the thirsty and crazy villagers teamed up to rob the two dolls in the village and sent them to the wilderness according to the requirements of the drought fish, and sure enough, a day later, the mountain spring water really flowed down the mountain.
This kind of crazy and cruel thing happens every year because the village can't stand the drought, the villagers become cold-blooded and numb, and the people in the village become fewer and fewer, and they know that sooner or later there will be no more boys and girls in the village, they will not be far from death, and today they will be sent to the last pair of boys and girls in the village.
I heard that there was a drought in the village, and Tianchu decided to help the villagers get rid of it, but the villagers didn't know much about Tianchu, and they were worried that Tianchu would not be like the Taoist priest before.
After some haggling, the villagers finally relented, knowing that even if they were sacrificed, they would only have water for a year, so what would they do in the future? Since there is this opportunity, everyone still agrees to give it a try, the most important thing is that they think the method proposed by Tianchu is acceptable, that is, the living sacrifice is still alive, and the two boys and girls are used as an introduction to lure the drought fish out, so that anyway, the villagers also send the boys and girls who are sacrificed alive, even if Tianchu is not successful, they still have water to eat.
After Bai Yue's painstaking persuasion and assurance, the parents of the children finally agreed.
At the beginning of the day, a group of people mixed into the procession of the villagers and came to a hill outside the village, and according to the rules, the boys and girls were to be placed here, and the villagers could go back.
The two children were so frightened that they huddled together and shivered, and their parents were dragged away by a group of villagers, crying and crying.
Tianchu's group hid and stared closely at the place where the two children were, not daring to blink their eyes, Tianchu instructed Yun Zhen that once the drought fish appeared, he would immediately take the children back and place them in a safe place, and then come back immediately to fight the drought together, Yun Zhen nodded his head, and everyone began to wait with bated breath.
What does a marba look like? Tianchu only heard the master mention it and didn't really see it, he only knew that the drought was different from the ghost, the ghost only had a soul and no body, and the drought was just the opposite, it was a corpse without a soul, because it absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon, the essence of human and animal essence and cultivated into a zombie monster, the drought is a special existence that jumped out of the Three Realms and did not enter the six realms of reincarnation.
Legend has it that some people do not come out after death, the body does not rot, if it happens to be buried in the corpse place, then the corpse will continue to absorb the qi of heaven and earth and slowly change, grow white hair, called white zombie, at this time the white zombie can move slowly, but it is afraid of light, fire and living creatures, so it generally does not come out to harm people, and will continue to stay in the corpse place to live and breathe.
If the white zombie sucks the blood of cattle and sheep, it will change rapidly, and the white hair on the body will turn into black hair, which is called black zombie, and no longer live by inhalation, but will live by sucking animal blood, and at this time, the black zombie will not easily take the initiative to attack people.
After a few decades, after the black zombie sucks blood to a certain extent, the black hair falls off and changes back into a human form, at this time it is called a jumping corpse, it can jump a foot away, act quickly, and has infinite strength, and is good at attacking the living and spreading the corpse poison, once the living person is bitten by the jumping corpse, the corpse poison attacks within three days, and the living person will also become a jumping corpse, which is extremely harmful.
If the jumping corpse continues to absorb the essence of heaven and earth, after a hundred years, you can jump on the house and the tree, jump like flying, come and go, the gods are ghostly, and the killing is invisible.
The flying corpse still maintains the appearance of a human, once the flying corpse survives for hundreds of years, it has the ability to be almost magical, at this time its appearance has also changed, more and more in the direction of the monster, green face and white eyes, horns on the head, feet like cow hooves, fists like lion's paws, the whole body is dry and hot, can emit great heat, all the water within a radius of 100 miles evaporates, causing drought, drought is formed.
Drought is a special kind of monster, it is different from ghosts, it is getting stronger and stronger in the process of constant change, drought fish evolves every five hundred years, and the zombie era, first grow white hair, then grow black hair, and finally the red hair fades and it becomes the ultimate monster - the dragon, the dragon has the ability to destroy the world, feed on the dragon, invulnerable, there is an immortal body, once the zombie is cultivated into a dragon, there is no way to destroy it, legend has it from the flood to this, there has only been a dragon, the disaster is chaotic in the world, the gods can not destroy it, In the end, the Buddha used it as a mount to suppress it, and the trouble was settled.
