Chapter 5: The Art of Sorcery
The voice was quiet again, and only after half a sound did he shout leisurely: "Yu Tong...... Yu Tong ......"
Damn! I don't believe it! What the hell are you! The occupational disease that my reporter got to the bottom of has been committed again. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
I ran again, but I stopped after only a few steps.
Wait a minute! Wrong! Something is not right. How can human speed be so fast? Although I'm basically an athletic brain-dead patient. But if people are at this speed, it is too unreasonable.
Isn't it a human being who makes a sound?
But what could it be?
Am I being "taken" by others? No way? How can there be such an evil thing? Moreover, am I so unlucky?
"Na Mao" is the most mysterious of these places, and some of them are close to a ritual of witchcraft, but it is not. There should be some connection between the two.
Pu'an is a small town in Guizhou. According to one theory, the center of the once mysterious ancient Yelang culture was in the area of Pu'an, Xingren, and Qinglong. And Guizhou, a big place, was called Miaojiang in ancient times. Miao Jiang Gu has appeared in a variety of literary and artistic works. In reality, although it is uncertain whether there is witchcraft or not, the Chinese herbal medicine of the Miao people has a beautiful scenery in traditional Chinese medicine. A biologist once told me about this. He said: According to the ancient books, Gu refining is to put many poisonous insects in a jar, let them devour each other, and the last thing left is Gu. And from the current biological point of view, this is naturally untenable. If Gu is a hybrid produced by the mating of these poisonous insects, then it is possible.
The most famous literary and artistic works about Gu art may be "The Legend of Sword and Fairy I". Whether you've played the game or watched this TV. I believe that they are no strangers to the Gu art of Nanzhao Kingdom. The historical Nanzhao Kingdom is actually in Guizhou and Guangxi.
Let's talk about the name "Guizhou". I've heard people say that it was originally called "Ghost State". I don't know if it's true. But just by looking at the name, you should know how evil this place is.
The idea is far away. Let's get back to the matter of "taking the mao". This is a kind of ritual that people in these places ask Taoist priests to do after they are sick or evil. Of course, not everyone does this.
I've learned about "Na Mao" before. The ceremony is performed in the evening. When it is time to take it, all the lamps and candles in the master's house are to be extinguished, and no one is allowed to sleep. Otherwise, it is possible to "hold" the sleeping people in the house.
At the beginning of the ceremony, Mr. Taoist priest wore a magic robe, a mask (it is said that the mask is terrifying, but I have never seen it), wore three pieces of paper money with a sword, recited a spell, opened the gate, rushed out, and when he reached the fork in the road, he blew the conch and shouted: Are you coming?
Then put the conch to your ear, and you will hear a sound coming from the snail. If it is a bird's call, then the one who "holds" it is the bird, but if it is a human voice, then it is the person who holds it!
It's just that in the vast majority of cases, it's the bird that is "holding".
There are exceptions. When learning about this matter, a person said that when the family was "taking Mao", someone on the upper floor of the courtyard did not wake up, but the gentleman shouted outside: Are you here?
He shouted at home: Here it is!
As a result, everyone was almost scared to death at that time.
When I think of "Namao", my heart is a little hairy. I'm really not going to be "taken", am I? I don't really believe in this thing. But thinking about that kind of miserable scene, I feel cold in my heart.
"Yu Tong! Yu Tong! Seeing that I was not moving, the voice came close to me. It's only seventy or eighty meters away from me.
I gritted my teeth and rushed forward.
The voice disappeared again without any suspense. I turned my head to look around. The scalp is suddenly fried!
Fifty or sixty meters to my left, two faint fires were dancing in the night. Next to the firelight, there was a dark shadow! I can't tell if it's human!
His head was huge, almost three times my size, but his body was extremely thin. What's even scarier is that it doesn't have hands! It's like a hanged ghost.
It just stood upright, like a zombie.
And a voice that I didn't understand came from that direction. What a nonsense!
With unexplained fear in my heart, I couldn't help but take a step back.
"Ouch!" A woman's cry of pain suddenly sounded behind him. The sudden sound from behind almost scared me unconscious. In a cold sweat, I turned my head and saw that it was Xiao Ruo!
Why did this little girl come with her again?
I covered her mouth and motioned for her not to speak. Her eyes were puzzled at first, and then turned to fear! She saw that dark shadow too! I didn't dare to come out, and Xiao Ruo's body began to tremble.
Although I covered Xiao Ruo's mouth in time, it was still too late. The dark shadow turned around in the moonlight. My heart was beating to my throat.
Turned...... Turned...... Finally...... Turned......
"What kind of guest is it, it's actually here! Then show up! An old voice rang out
Is it human? I was stunned. Let go of the hand that was covering Xiao Ruo.
Xiao Ruo pouted and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Brother Yu Tong, you stepped on me just now!" ”
"Why did you come out with you?" I didn't show mercy at all, and whispered.
There were suddenly more tears in her eyes, and she said aggrievedly: "I just saw Brother Yu Tong come out, and I thought it was fun, so I ...... And they came out......"
I sighed helplessly, crouched down and asked softly, "Are your feet okay?" ”
She pouted and didn't speak!
I smiled, crouched down in front of her, and said, "Come on my back." Brother Yu Tong carries you! ”
Xiao Ruo grinned, climbed onto my back, and said with a smile: "Brother Yu Tong is so good!" ”
"Let's go over there!" I gestured in the direction the old man was in and whispered.
Xiao Ruo let out a "hmm" and put her delicate chin on my shoulder, and the breath of Rulan blew in my neck, making me feel weird.
The distance is close. Only then did I realize that the two faint fires were actually candles in front of a grave.
And the reason why the old man's head is so big is because his hair and beard are particularly fluffy. In addition, his arms are very thin, so his drooping hands are not visible from a distance.
Seeing us approaching, the old man smiled kindly at us and said, "Even in the daytime, few people come here. It's late at night, I wonder why the two of you are here? ”
I was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Old man, didn't you lure me here?" ”
"Me?" The old man smiled and said, "Your Excellency has thought a lot. The old man guards the tomb here all the year round and rarely leaves, how can he lure the two guests here? ”
"Not you? Who's that? "I couldn't help but feel a little bit in my heart. Listen, the voice calling my name is gone. Obviously, the other party brought me here on purpose. But...... Did someone really bring me here?
