Chapter 11: The Blood Curse of Seeking the Sect

Uncle Zhao pondered a little and asked me, "Have you felt anything abnormal in your life recently?" ”

I thought to myself: probably the most unusual thing is to find you pedantic trio! But of course I knew what he was trying to ask, so I said, "Well, I haven't survived since I left Tohoku, and I've always had accidents." ”

"Ever wondered why this is happening?" Uncle Zhao asked.

"I don't know, it looks like it's just some accidents, and there's no special connection between each accident." I'll be frank.

Uncle Zhao sighed and asked again, "Then do you know why I had to keep you in the Northeast when you came out?" ”

This...... Does it matter? But in order for him to continue to speak, I didn't plan to play any more tricks, so I honestly said, "I don't know." ”

"It's because there's a big secret hidden in you." He said it very directly.

"What's the secret?"

"An ancient curse."

I was a little confused. Secretly grabbed the arm of a chair, and a tingling pain came from his palm, proving that this was not a dream. But if it weren't for a dream, how could I believe such? But the two old men stared at me with serious eyes, which not only made me doubt my mental state.

After a moment's pause, I stammered, "Can you be specific?" ”

Uncle Zhao nodded at Teacher Tian, and Teacher Tian got up and left. After a while, he came back with something in his hand. I looked closely, and it turned out to be the unintelligible material in the bookcase in the basement.

Uncle Zhao took the information in his hand and said to me, "This thing was given to me by your father before he died. ”

My heart moved: "This thing...... I've read it, but I don't know what it's written on? ”

"It's a kind of deed-like text, and it's probably older." Teacher Tian on the side replied.

Looking at my idiot-like expression, he added, "It's a kind of writing similar to oracle bones." ”

Uncle Zhao continued: "This silk is handed down by your family, and there is a story that has been passed down with it.

The story goes: There was an old man who was instructed by the gods and attained the Tao. Originally, the immortals did not allow him to teach what he had learned without authorization, but because this old man had already started a family before he attained enlightenment, and had a wife and children, he had selfish intentions and wanted his family to become immortals with him.

He thought about it for a long time, thought of a method, and instructed his family to take out the hard work of himself, his son and grandson, refine it into an elixir in a special pill furnace, and then let the whole family take it.

Since then, the descendants of the old man have the special ability to directly comprehend and attain the Tao. But this matter was finally known by the immortals, because the old man committed the felony of revealing the secret of the heavens, and the immortals began to hunt down and kill his descendants, and once discovered, they would never let go. ”

How does it sound like a myth! There are still stories like this in my family? How come I haven't heard of it?

Seeing my puzzled eyes, Uncle Zhao simply said the conclusion first: "Tao Yong, you are one of the descendants of this family. ”

Despite some mental preparation, I felt like I had been hit hard in my chest and couldn't help coughing. Tian Ge next to him hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it to me. I don't know why, when I saw this young girl, I felt that I was still alive in the twentieth century, and I couldn't help but laugh and snort: "This is too!" Haha, you have such a rich imagination......" while looking at Tian Ge with eyes like asking for help, trying to find some resonance from her.

But she didn't respond, but looked at me calmly, and there was even a trace of sympathy in her eyes, as if she had confirmed that I was a poor child who was chased and killed by the so-called "gods"!

"I know it's hard for you to accept it all at once." Teacher Tian interjected, "Don't say you don't want to believe it, we are all scientists and materialists, and we didn't believe it at first." ”

"Then ......," I gasped feebly, "why do you still say that?" ”

"Because we cracked the words on the silk." Tian Ge said suddenly.

I looked at her in disbelief, but she looked at me with very firm eyes, and said very calmly: "The whole thing is written on the silk, but it is a completely different version from what Uncle Zhao said just now. ”

Teacher Tian said on the side: "It's okay to let Tian Ge explain it to you." After all, in terms of deciphering this text, in fact, her contribution is the greatest. ”

Tian Ge smiled as if he had a sense of accomplishment and said, "I guess your ancestors left this silk book to record the truth when they knew that disaster would befall their descendants. There are a large number of people in the family, and they can't let the truth spread and cause greater disasters, and they don't dare to guarantee who can take over the responsibility of inheriting the truth, so they use a story as a trick. Only those who finally get the silk book have the best chance of unlocking the secret. ”

"What the hell is the secret?" I feel like my head is a little bit underwhelming.

"In fact, there has always been such a custom in ancient China, writing some historical events into myths through some metaphorical brushwork, on the one hand, it may be a bit similar to the current artistic processing, and on the other hand, it is sometimes to hide some historical truths." To be honest, Tian Ge's pedantic spirit when she spoke really made people suspect that she was hiding her age.

"Ahem...... So what is the secret written on the silk? "Now I have to be patient and ask Miss Tian for advice.

She said calmly: "Seeking the blood curse." ”

"What beating?" I'm confused.

"It's the Blood Curse!" She corrected.

I've completely defeated them in my heart, so I'll just listen to them as a myth.

She suddenly changed the subject: "Senior brother, do you know what blood is?" ”

"Blood?" I was stunned for a moment.

"Explain it to me, you don't know much about this! What are the characteristics of blood in traditional Chinese medicine? She tilted her head to me, as if she had suddenly reverted to the innocent girl I had ever known.

I was caught off guard, and I couldn't sort out a thought for a while, and it took me a long time before I replied intermittently: "Qi and blood are two important mediums in the human body...... Western medicine has discovered that the main function of blood is to transport nutrients and oxygen, but it does not admit the existence of qi. …… Because in terms of yin and yang, blood is only yin, the tangible part of matter, and qi is its soul, the invisible power that drives the blood to run. ……”

"That's right!" Tian Ge interrupted me and said, "Blood transports not only nutrients and oxygen, but also something that we can't see for the time being, which is information!" ”

This statement piqued my interest, and I followed her words: "Information is the scientific term, and in Chinese medicine it is called 'subtle', which encompasses a richer content including nutrients, oxygen, and information. ”

"Well, but the information you're referring to is not the same as what I said, right?" Tian Ge said with a smile.

"How is it different?" I wonder what else can escape the broad and profound definitions that Chinese culture has created.

She glanced back at her dad and said proudly, "After our research, we have found that the transmission of information in blood can continue indefinitely across generations. ”

"What do you mean?"

She was afraid that I would not believe it, so she gave an example: "A research group in the United States has done a follow-up study for decades and found a very profound phenomenon: among the generations of descendants of a priest, most of them are engaged in occupations related to the priesthood, while a very high proportion of the descendants of a criminal choose to continue to commit crimes. I happened to have seen the data from that report, and it inspired my thinking. ”

I listened to it and thought: You still need to study this, isn't there an old saying for a long time: dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of mice will make holes.

"Moral bias aside, science alone, we've done some research and think that the information stored in the blood of a human being is probably the whole of what his ancestors went through. It's just that because the amount of information is too large, the brain chooses to permanently seal most of the information in the subconscious or even deeper areas, and there is no way to extract it directly into the consciousness.

Most people have felt that way when they see a scene, they can't have experienced it in the past, but they have a sense of déjà vu, which is actually an overlap between reality and the memories of ancestors hidden in the depths of the brain.

In the past, there were rumors that someone had an accident and woke up to become a different person, probably because the information sealed in the brain that he had not experienced was accidentally extracted. ”

The more I listened, the more surprised I became, but I still wanted to quickly bring her back to the subject: "I see, what do you mean that spell is true?" So what exactly does this spell do to me? ”

"The Sect Seeking Blood Curse, as the name suggests, is to make a mark on you, allowing you to establish a special connection with your ancestors."

"This ...... I don't have to put a spell on it, so it seems......"

"According to this silk, your ancestor hopes that future generations can use this blood mantra to find out an important piece of information they left behind."

"What's the message?"

"I didn't say anything about this silk."

I was a little deflated. That's not what you said!

Then I suddenly remembered an important question: "What do you have to do with the accident I encountered recently?" ”

Tian Ge glanced back at her father, it seemed that this time it was Mr. Tian's turn to play, I quickly straightened up, planning to listen to his advice.

But he stood up and said to me, "Come with me." ”

I stood up in confusion and followed him out. After walking for a while, I realized that this was the way to the basement.

I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a strong sense of resistance in my heart, and I didn't want to go back to that place again. Especially...... I thought of the thoughts that flashed in my mind at that time, as if once I touched them, my mind would be confused and I didn't know why.

"Are you going to take me to that basement?" I showed my uneasiness.

"Yes, there are some things that can only be explained if you go there." Teacher Tian said.

"If you mean that little incense burner, you don't have to, I've already seen it." I hastened to explain.

When he heard this, he immediately stopped, stared at me in surprise, turned his head and said as if to himself, "Yes, it is impossible not to see it." ”

At this time, the group of four had already walked to the back garden, and we simply sat down on the stone bench in the shade of the tree. The weather was fine, the sun was already high, and there were a magpie or two calls around me from time to time, and I finally started to relax and feel like I was back in reality.

However, unrealistic topics still have to be continued.
