Chapter Forty-Six: The White Horse Packs the Corpse
"What corpse charm?"
I turned my head and looked at Li Zhu'er looking at the yellow paper talisman in my hand with straight eyes, and couldn't help asking. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Li Zhu'er's eyes changed a little, then looked at the paper man and paper horse ashes on the ground, and then looked at the yellow paper talisman in my hand, and finally said, "Do you know the origin of the name of White Horse Village?" ”
"Where did the name come from?"
I frowned, and couldn't help but think of the white horse jade plaque in my arms and the white horse bearer stone tablet at the entrance of Dumen Village, and I inexplicably felt that the patterns on the two were somewhat related to the name of White Horse Village.
"Could it be because white horses were raised here in the past?"
Jiang Lai came over curiously, and made a joke in the bitterness.
Li Zhu'er glanced at Jiang Lai and said, "You're only half right!" ”
Then looking at us, Li Zhu'er asked again, "Do you know about the corpse of the white horse?" ”
"White horse carcass?"
Jiang Lai's faces were full of doubts, but it was me, and my heart moved.
I seem to have heard this phrase.
Seeing that we didn't know, Li Zhu'er took a deep breath and said slowly: "In the beginning, this village had no name, and there were very few people who even knew about this village. ”
"It is rumored that the people of this village are very particular about etiquette, and in the etiquette, they attach great importance to funerals, but because they are located in the mountains and forests, the mountain roads are rugged, and it is extremely difficult to walk, and there is no way to bury the deceased in the mountains under ordinary circumstances. As a sign of honor, the horses used to carry the carcasses were white. Because of the inconvenience of transportation, later, in this village, they simply raised their own horses, with white horses as the first. ”
Li Zhu'er said this, we almost all understand what Li Zhu'er meant.
"That's why this village was later called White Horse Village!"
However, Li Zhu'er didn't mean to stop: "Although I don't know if this rumor is true, this white horse corpse is true." For a long time, this village has used white horses to carry corpses, and even white horses are of great significance to this village. ”
Listening to Li Zhu'er's words, I remembered the pattern on the white horse jade plate, and the feeling above is not a horse riding picture, but a white horse corpse picture!
"As for these corpse talismans, they have some origins."
Li Zhu'er looked at the corpse talisman in my hand and said with some emotion.
"In the early years, there was a war outside, horses were requisitioned, resulting in no horses available in the village, and if you want to be buried, you can only rely on people to carry them up the mountain for burial, but the mountain road is rugged and steep, and if you are not careful, you are likely to fall off the cliff and your life is in danger. After that, an old Taoist priest came to this village, and he couldn't look at it, so he drew a few corpse talismans and a few guide talismans, and stayed in the village, based on paper people and paper horses, and buried the corpse for a soul. ”
Speaking of this, Li Zhu'er sighed: "But White Horse Village has disappeared as early as fifty years ago, so no one knows whether this corpse talisman and guide talisman are true or false, I just heard grandma say it when I was a child, if it wasn't for this real encounter, I thought it was just a legend." ”
"That's where the corpse talisman comes from!"
"Good ......"
Jiang Lai let out a surprised voice, carefully took out a corpse talisman from my hand, and held it in his hand and looked at it repeatedly.
"The white horse carries the corpse, the yin man leads the way, the corpse buries the soul, and the yin and yang are passed."
"This old Taoist priest is really powerful!" Jiang looked at the corpse talisman in his hand, thinking of the original scene in his mind, and almost knelt down in worship.
After speaking, he looked at me blankly: "Brother, you have so many corpse talismans and guide talismans, give me two." ”
I couldn't help but laugh when I looked at Jiang Lai's eyes, and immediately gave him four, two corpse charms and two guide charms.
It's just that when I wanted to collect these yellow paper runes, I looked at those rune papers, but I inexplicably felt that these rune papers had an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if I had seen them somewhere.
When I think that I seem to have heard the term white horse corpse, it is even more strange in my heart.
Looking around, we found that we were in the very center of the village, and in the distance there was a barren grass and desolation, and the roadside was full of broken rubble, broken roofs, and collapsed walls......
In the ashes of the ruins, you can still see the size and appearance of the original village, and the strange thing is that the appearance of the village at this time is almost the same as what we saw before.
At this time, I saw the white insect on the side that was trampled on by Li Zhu'er, and asked, "Zhu'er, what is the psychedelic Gu you just said?" ”
Li Zhu'er's face suddenly became complicated, looking at the white insect on the ground, her face was cloudy, but she still replied: "There is a strange smell on the psychedelic Gu's body, as long as you smell this smell, you can make people hallucinate bugs." Unlike ordinary Gu worms, psychedelic Gu is not easy to feed and is extremely rare. Moreover, the average person will not ...... at all"
Speaking of this, Li Zhuer wanted to speak and stopped.
Seeing the complicated expression on Li Zhu'er's face, Peng Jiahe suddenly said, "Since it's Gu, it should be someone who ordered it, right?" However, from the time we set out to the present, not to mention people, not even a dog has been seen......"
Saying that, Peng Jiahe looked at Li Zhu'er with a smile: "This Gu will not appear for no reason, right?" ”
Looking at the tone, it seems to be a bit aimed at Li Zhu'er.
"It can't be my sister's Gu!" Seeing Peng Jiahe's aggressive appearance, Li Jingfeng stood up and yelled at Peng Jiahe.
"I didn't say anything about your sister's Gu, what are you anxious about!" Not to be outdone, Peng Jiahe glanced at Li Jingfeng, but then said: "However, it's not your sister's Gu, but it doesn't mean that it's not someone else's Gu." ”
The words are weird.
I frowned, looked at Peng Jiahe and said, "If you have anything to say, don't beat around the bush." ”
To be honest, I don't believe that it was Li Zhu'er's Gu, although the contact time was a little shorter, but I also have a basic understanding of her character, she is not such a character at all. However, looking at her, I seem to have a sense that she is hiding something.
"Humph!"
Peng Jiahe looked at Li Zhu'er and snorted coldly: "If you want to say that she is the most good at Gu, it should be her grandma!" ”
Speaking of this, Peng Jiahe seemed to think of being tricked by Li Zhuer's blind grandmother yesterday, and trembled all over.
Li Zhu'er's expression changed, she bit her lip, but she didn't speak.
Li Jingfeng looked at his sister Li Zhu'er's appearance, his eyes widened, and he yelled at Peng Jiahe: "It is absolutely impossible for my grandma to be Gu." ”
"That's it!"
Looking at the few people who were getting more and more emotional, I categorically scolded, if this continues, it will become more and more inexplicable.
Knowing the subtlety, if you talk about the ability to go down to Gu, the blind old lady is undoubtedly unfathomable, but if you say that the psychedelic Gu is under this blind old lady, I don't agree with it.
If this old lady really wanted to do Gu, she would definitely not wait until now, she could go down last night.
The most important thing is that I have an intuition, and my intuition tells me that this blind old lady has absolutely something to do with Uncle Ghost, and this blind old lady will definitely not harm me.
After a few arguments, the matter was settled, but we were more cautious about what came next.
"Brother, what now?"
Jiang Lai looked at the desolate surroundings and whispered.
Before I could speak, Li Jingfeng on the side suddenly said: "Uncle, since this place is already in ruins, there must be nothing, why don't we go back." ”
"No!"
I looked around, shook my head decisively, and then, suddenly, pointed to the back of the village: "Let's go there and have a look!" ”
My gut told me I should go there.
No one had an opinion, and all of us walked cautiously towards the back of the village.
At this time, we didn't pay attention, and when I pointed to the back of the village and wanted to go to the back of the village, Li Jingfeng's face became extremely complicated.
