Chapter 186: Entering the WTO
Time is a funny thing to say, because you can never put into words exactly how it will relate to a person.
No one will know what the shape of the future time is, and no one will know where the past time went, in that period of time when even my memory did not appear, Shao Yongxing and Shao Yonglin slowly grew up in Tiesha Mountain.
In that passage, the two of them have been helped by the three immortals, and have become proficient in the skills of a shaman, due to the interference of the three immortals, so Shao Yonglin can not be familiar with the mantra of the soldiers, but after a long time, he also wanted to open, so he just practiced some shamanic ghost removal techniques, and Shao Yongxing was not interested in the kind of external body art of fighting and killing, so he just learned some knowledge about shamans and familiarized himself with the mantras of the three immortals, speaking of which he always felt ashamed of his younger brother, Therefore, no matter what he learned from those three great immortals, he would teach his younger brother.
And his move, how could the three great immortals not know? But they also understand that everything has a cause and effect, although Shao Yongxing is kind, but his heart is too soft, this may also be a common disease of the royal shaman, just like Qing Batulu in the early years, if he hadn't agreed to the royal family to find the dragon because of a moment of soft-heartedness, I'm afraid there would not have been those things in the future.
Everything has a benefit and a disadvantage, this is no way to do it, so the three immortals did not interfere in vain, but there is only one thing they are not ambiguous, the third master once said to Shao Yongxing: We pass on your things you have learned is yours, you can teach whoever you want, but there is only one thing to remember not to pass on to others, this thing is the nine-tone eighteen-tone mantra and the donkey skin drum, because these two things hide us' The secret of the fox fairy's hometown, your father Shao Yong lost his surname because he wanted to keep these two things, so you must remember it.
Shao Yongxing saw that the third master's tone was very serious, and he also knew that these two things were very important, so he nodded and agreed, and the third master then asked him to make an oath, unless he met someone with a good heart and who could beat the Kaiyuan drum when he was old, he would not leak this set of mantras to others.
"If you disobey, you will definitely suffer from ten thousand blades piercing your heart, and Shao Yong under Jiuquan will not be able to live in peace." Shao Yongxing said very apologetically to Shao Yonglin: "That's it, Yonglin, I'm really sorry, I really can't tell you this set of formulas." ”
When Shao Yongxing said this to Shao Yonglin, it was the day he was born at the age of twenty, and the years spent on Tiesha Mountain had made him grow into a sturdy young man, he looked thick and dark-skinned, and looked no different from a young man with crops, and Shao Yonglin inherited his father's bloodline at that time, and he was born with a dignified appearance, when the two were together, they didn't look like brothers at all, but somewhat similar to a young master with a miscellaneous family.
They had been staying on this mountain all these years, and the three great immortals once told the two of them that when Shao Yongxing was twenty years old, they would go down the mountain to experience and practice, which was what every shaman had to do. And on the night before the two left, Shao Yonglin once again asked Shao Yongxing for the mantra of the soldiers, thinking that he had learned all the things that the shaman should know over the years, only the last set of mantras, and in these years, he had asked Shao Yongxing more than once, but although Shao Yongxing usually obeyed him and served him attentively, he had never passed on this set of mantras to Shao Yonglin.
Because he didn't dare, after all, he had already sworn an oath.
That night, after Shao Yongxing said his oath again, I saw that Shao Yonglin sighed, at that time, the two had grown up, and their minds were much more mature than when they were children, Shao Yonglin also knew that even if he asked a few more times, the result would be the same, but he also wanted to open it, and in his heart he always felt that the three monsters had little belly chicken intestines, because he offended them when he was young, so he took revenge on himself.
But it's okay, Shao Yonglin thought to himself, anyway, this stupid brother obeys his words, no matter what he does, he can't escape the palm of his hand, since this is the case, then it is himself who really has the ability. So he didn't ask about it again.
It wasn't until the two of them said goodbye to the three immortals and got off Tiesha Mountain that the story of our generations officially began.
Shao Yongxing received the orders of the three immortals to go down the mountain to practice, but this experience is nothing more than traveling around to increase knowledge and knowledge, saying that the situation in the world was still turbulent at that time, so strange things continued to happen in various places, and most of the bizarre stories that Shao Yongxing once told me were personally experienced by him at that time.
It is said that there is a day, the two passed through the Shandong area, when it was getting late, the two came to a small village to spend the night, and when they just entered the village, they found that the small village was very lively, many young people gathered under the tree to drink and gamble, and the faces of the village women were also full of joy, as if the New Year, you must know that at that time of the year, the people were not allowed to live in peace, the two came from the west, and all the people they saw along the way were sad because of the hardships of life, So when the two of them saw that the people in this village were so happy, they felt a little strange. So the two couldn't help but step forward and stopped a lady to ask, the lady saw that the two were passing guests, so she said to them very enthusiastically: "You are from other places, it's a coincidence, tomorrow the Wang family in our village will marry a daughter, no, are we all busy?" ”
It turns out that there are more than 60 families in this small village, because of the remote location here, so it has not been affected by the war, and the king is a wealthy landlord in this village, and the people in the village rent land with him to farm, and this Wang Dahu is kind, never bullying others, so the prestige in this village is very high, he has only one daughter, born like a flower like jade, this year with another landlord in the next village to make a marriage, tomorrow is the door of the day, so this Wang Dahu is happy, So he opened a warehouse to put grain and put a feast, and the whole village came to participate, so it was naturally lively.
The lady saw that these two young men from outside were born with good faces, so she let them stay in her own house, and when the feast was held at the rich king's house in the evening, she led them to eat and drink.
In the local folklore, women can not serve at this feast, so the table is full of men, the two have been in an accident at that time, so it is easy to mingle with the local villagers, you must know that at that time the dancing god and Mr. Yin and Yang This kind of occupation is not unusual, but it is difficult to see in the small village, in the two of them are the 'great immortals' and ' After the two immortals, the villagers were very curious to ask them some strange things, when the news was blocked, the two picked up some of the things they saw along the way and listened to the villagers, only to hear them stained and surprised, when they talked about the ghosts and gods, some people were so frightened that they couldn't help but exclaim.
Shao Yonglin saw that these villagers had never seen the world so much, so he was amused in his heart, and after drinking a few more glasses, he got up and went to make it convenient, but when he came back, his face changed, and he leaned into Shao Yongxing, who was telling stories to those villagers, and whispered: "Brother, it seems that something is wrong." ”
Shao Yongxing happened to finish talking about a corpse fraud he encountered some time ago, and the villagers were discussing it, Shao Yongxing turned his head to Shao Yonglin and said, "What's wrong?" ”
I saw that Shao Yonglin got up quietly and motioned for Shao Yongxing to follow him, and the two came to the west wall outside the door of the Wang family, Shao Yonglin pointed to a tree by the wall and said, "Brother, look at that." ”
Shao Yongxing looked at it according to his words, and then the moonlight, only to see that something seemed to be wrapped around the dense branches, and then looked closely, it turned out to be a dirty strip of cloth, which was knotted on the tall branches, and the drooping part fluttered gently with the night wind, obviously someone deliberately climbed the tree and tied it there.
To say that this scene is actually nothing, but Shao Yongxing was already a capable master at that time, he looked at the cloth on the tree and was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly lay down, and dug a few times under the tree with his hands, the more he dug the more he felt that something was wrong, and he felt that the soil under the tree was very wet and had a fishy smell, so he grabbed a handful of soil, and after twisting his fingers, he saw a red color on his fingers, Shao Yongxing frowned suddenly, and then continued to dig up, not digging for a while, He dug up a pair of satin-faced shoes under the tree, which were apparently the shoes worn by women, emerald green, with a peony embroidered on them, and there were words, one was written 'Fu Shou Kangning', and the other was written 'Green Willow Evergreen'.
Shao Yongxing looked back with a solemn expression, and then looked around, until he confirmed that there was no one nearby, and then whispered to Shao Yonglin: "How did you find out?" ”
Shao Yonglin squatted down and said to him: "What I found when I went to the wall to relieve my hands just now is on all sides, what should we do now?" ”
It turned out that at that time, there was no toilet in the countryside at all, and ordinary young men would find a place where no one was going to solve it if they were in a hurry.
It is about the superstition of the older generation, they think that the union of the newlyweds is a big thing, and the day the bride marries is a lot of taboos, according to legend, a lot of dirty things will take advantage of the newlyweds to get married, so in ancient times, many places to welcome relatives have pulled the door to refuse this saying, it is said that Sina did not welcome relatives at that time, the team of relatives will send the bride to the groom's house, the groom must close the door and lock it first to make a look to avoid it, which means to block a bad breath to prevent dirty things from coming to the house with the bride, Although the customs vary from place to place, most of them have similar rituals to avoid evil, such as stepping on the brazier in some places, and holding an apple in the bride's hand in some places, in fact, this is the intention.
At that time, people were superstitious that if a family offended others, the malicious people would deliberately put some dirty things near their homes when the other party's children got married, thinking that doing so would make the other party unlucky, of course, this was just a superstition.
And what the little brothers saw at that time, they also understood that this is not a simple superstitious thing, you must know that superstition is actually true and false, speaking of which should be the witchcraft laid by the evil masters in ancient times, specifically to harm the bride who is about to get married, the little brothers just heard but have never seen, they heard that there is such a powerful witchcraft, using the ghost of the dead to harm people, this witchcraft is very vicious, first take the corpses of four people who were hanged at the same time in one day, They believe that the reason why the hanged people stick out their tongues is because they can't leave their bodies after death, so they are crowded at the tip of their tongues, and as long as the ropes and clothes are stained with the blood on the tip of their tongues, their souls will be at their mercy.
At this time, as long as the four ropes are tied around the house of the victim, and a piece of the deceased's clothing is buried, then the bride of the family will be entangled in the spirits of the four dead people, and there will be strange things on the night before the wedding.
Speaking of which, this was also heard from the mouth of the Taoist priest Han You when the two of them were young, but Han You only said it casually at that time, so the two brothers didn't know what would happen next.
After Shao Yongxing remembered the words of Daoist Han You at that time, he hurriedly said to Shao Yonglin: "Yonglin, it's not good, it seems that someone wants to harm this big family, let's quickly burn these four things." ”
And Shao Yonglin shook his head, although his surname is arrogant, and sometimes impulsive, but the things in his heart are much more careful than that of Shao Yongxing, at that time he said to Shao Yongxing: "It's not appropriate to do this, because you also know that this is not an ordinary idea, I think there must be a wizard around here, they have already targeted this family, if you get rid of it now, then they may not be able to harm people in the future, you must know that we can't stay here for a long time, after we leave, who else can care about this matter?" ”
After Shao Yongxing heard Shao Yonglin say this, he felt that this was indeed the case, so he said to Shao Yonglin: "Then let's guard here tonight?" ”
Shao Yonglin nodded, then took off his backpack, he sneered, and then said, "I want to see which unlucky ghost met the two of us." ”
To say that the two of them entered the world to find such strange things, and the two of them had encountered a few similar things before, so after knowing what to do, both of them were very calm, Shao Yongxing buried the embroidered shoes under the tree again, and then the two of them pretended to be okay and returned to the wine table to eat and drink, and when the feast was over, the two returned to the house where they were staying, and lay on the kang to close their eyes and recuperate. After each of them took their tools, they came to hide near the residence of the king again.
Thinking that it should be about one o'clock in the second half of the night, it is the time when the five fingers are not visible, at this time the people of Wang Dahu's family have already fallen asleep to prepare for the marriage of tomorrow, it was already autumn, the night wind was cold, the two hid in the distance and did not make a little sound, seeing a large cloud floating from the east to cover the moon, everything around was quiet and scary, and at this moment, the two suddenly heard a burst of instrumental music in the distance.
