Chapter 396: Love Gu
"I really didn't know you were hurt so much." I squeezed Chrissy's hand tighter, stared into her eyes and said very seriously, "I can't promise you anything, but I want you to get rid of the past and face your future." ”
It can be seen that Chrissy is very entangled, and the main reason is that she has just said fatalism for so long, and I haven't listened to a word. Still, Chrissy nodded at me gratefully.
The Indian Ah San who was driving couldn't stand it anymore, and asked me loudly: "Jia Shu, do you believe in fate?" ”
I absolutely can't answer and believe, if I answer like that, it will be equivalent to letting Chrissy and Lao Yu accept their fate, so I replied very solemnly word by word: "What is not fate, my fate is up to me!" ”
After I finished saying this, through the rearview mirror, I found that my old face turned blue, and it seemed that if I continued to say more, this thing could directly transform into a human wolf in the car.
But after only a short while, Lao Yu's face returned to normal level, and Ya sighed and said, "Jia Shu, you are really a good person." ”
That's right, this Indian Ah San finally understood that I was going to say that, but the reaction was much slower than Chrissy's, because after I finished speaking, Chrissy pinched my palm harder, it was really a rainbow phoenix with wings, and her heart was a little clear!
Sometimes being a good person is as simple as that, a word, a greeting, a hug, or even a look is enough. It's just that it's too difficult to be understood by the other party. I was lucky that both guys in the car understood me.
"Well, everyone has their own ambitions, and we don't force you on anything. But Jia Shu, if you don't have the consciousness of accepting fate, please don't enter our circle. Lao Yu continued with emotion.
"He's right, it's for your own good." Chrissy added to Lao Yu's words.
I remembered that time at the fourth aunt's house, the fourth aunt had a conversation with the sloppy Taoist. They also want me to be between entering and not entering, that is, to find the tipping point in this, but what they said at the beginning and what they say now are entangled in the question of fate?
Seeing that I didn't answer but pondered, Lao Yu continued: "Jia Shu, if someone wants to kill you, will you choose to fight back? ”
As soon as I heard it, I knew that the other party was going to lead the topic to that Miao Jiang Gu man, so after thinking about it, I said to Lao Yu with a smile: "I will fight back, but I will never hurt a person who has no ability to resist." ”
Lao Yu seemed to have guessed that I would answer like this, so he continued to ask: "That's because you haven't seen the poisoning method of Miao Jiang Gu people, if you have seen it, I think you will be more ruthless than us." ”
I can't answer the other party's question, because the folk magicians I am currently in contact with are all in the orthodox school, and maybe some of them have a problem with their style, but that is limited to this person's character, and has nothing to do with the sect. But since I came into contact with Chrissy and Lao Yu, I found that I knew too little, and many questions were not what I had imagined, so I chose to answer each other's questions with silence.
"Jia Shu, how long have you known Meng Po?" Lao Yu suddenly changed the topic and began to ask about the relationship between me and Meng Po.
"It's been more than a year, what's wrong?" I asked, puzzled.
"I started working under Meng Po at the age of fifteen, and I have been working for more than ten years now. Let me tell you a story about the Gu people in Miaojiang. "Old Yu is definitely a good trick waiting for me to drill it. But it's okay, it relaxes my body and mind, distracts me, and gives me time to recover well, and the province always worries about the safety of the sloppy Taoist.
After seeing that I acquiesced, Lao Yu began to speak: "That year, Meng Po received a large order, and let us save a young man no matter what.
Jia Shu, you have to know that Meng Po easily does not accept orders, ordinary orders are taken by the people below, if she can take this list in person, it is basically the kind that the big man has to accept when he asks for it.
Meng Po first took Chrissy to see the young man, and heard Chrissy say that the young man was not bad, but he felt that something was missing. After I came back, Meng Po couldn't sit still, so she directly asked me to buy a ticket to Yunnan, and at the same time arranged for the family who begged him to prepare transportation at the airport.
On the plane, Meng Po told us with a solemn expression that this time things may be very tricky, because the child is aiqing Gu, if it can't be cracked, the child can live for half a month at most.
I was very curious about what aiqing Gu was, so Meng Po briefly told me the key to this. aiqing Gu is a kind of natal Gu, and the unmarried girls of the Miao nationality all carry this kind of Gu.
When the wedding night is rounded, the girl will put this Gu into the groom's body, once the groom betrays the girl in the future, then this Gu will take the other party's life within a month.
That young man should have had a relationship with a certain Miao Jiang girl who knew aiqing Gu, and he already had a matter of men and women in the actual sense. It's just that this young man didn't know that he was taken by someone else, maybe someone told him that he listened to it as a joke.
When he had an affair with other women, that aiqing Gu began to attack, first with a low-grade fever, then swelling all over the body, and then began to be in a severe coma, zuihou died of intestinal rot.
What's even more regrettable is that the Miaojiang woman who gave him aiqing Gu will also die together, which can be regarded as martyrdom. ”
"Then what does aiqing Gu look like?" I asked Lao Yu curiously.
"No one has seen it, not even Meng Po doesn't know what aiqing Gu looks like. Although she is also from Miao Jiang, she is one of the few Miao Jiang people who have never been under Aiqing Gu and know how to play Gu. Moreover, the village where Miao Jiang will go down to Gu is divided into many factions, and Meng Po only knows some things about her own faction, and she can't say anything else.
As for the weishenme when a man dies, the woman who goes under the Gu will also die with him, and the explanation that Meng Po gave me is that the natal Gu is a very domineering Gu, and it is connected to the net worth of the Gu person, and it is easy not to use it, but once it is used, it is to fight for his own life.
Meng Po also emphasized that in some very remote places in Guizhou in Yunnan, remember not to offend the local villagers, because you don't know which villagers are Gu people and which are ordinary people.
Don't think that people who raise some Gu worms will fall into Gu, it is very likely that those people are just owners. ”
"What do you mean by a owner?" I found that I was really a novice, and I didn't understand many of the words spoken by the other party, but fortunately, there were people in the car who understood, and I could use this time to study hard.
Lao Yu patiently explained to me: "The owner of Miao Jiang is a profession of raising Gu worms for others, which is similar to the people who herd cattle and sheep for others in China. It's just that the owner doesn't get paid, and it's completely voluntary to help. ”
"Holy, are they sick?" I don't understand this kind of work, I don't have money to work for nothing, is there still such a fool in the world?
"I had the same idea as you at first, but Meng Po told me that in the early years, the government always bullied the ordinary people of the Miao people, and those Miao people who could play tricks used this to blackmail the local ordinary farmers. Once the government bullied the owner, naturally someone would stand up for the owner, and over time, this custom has been passed down to this day. Lao Yu's answer is very pertinent, it seems that many of the current customs have been inadvertently passed down in the past. Among them, the most interesting is the following story.
