Chapter 57: Clever Use of the Demon Mirror
"Ghost fetus? Oh my god, that name sounds weird! Jin Facai said.
I nodded, smiled and asked, "You've all watched "Journey to the West", right?" Do you still remember that in one chapter, the four masters and apprentices went to the Xiliang Women's Country, and there was a river outside the country, and Zhu Bajie drank the water in the river, and the story of pregnancy, remember? ā
They all nodded, and Ayido said, "So there really is such a thing!" I thought it was just a myth. ā
I continued: "The woman of the daughter kingdom can conceive a child by drinking the water of the river of Zimu without a man, and in the water of the river there is a large amount of subtle qi, and after this qi is drunk, she can become a child in the womb. ā
Boss Mai shook his head in disbelief and exclaimed: "This is too scary, isn't it, will this kind of thing be true!?" ā
I continued: "Of course, this mythical story must also have a fictional place, I don't know if it can be born on an empty stomach, but your wife was already pregnant at the time, so the aura in this river water happened to borrow this placenta to slowly absorb nutrients, and gradually grow up with your baby, because this ghost qi itself has no specific shape, so it grew up with the appearance of your child, and finally became the green doll." This green is the green of bronze stone. ā
Boss Mai grabbed his wife's hand and translated with her, Mrs. Mai began to wipe her tears after listening, as if she was blaming herself, and said something, Boss Mai gently patted her back and comforted her.
Jin Facai asked another question at this time: "By the way, then why did those miners not drink water, but they all died?" ā
That's a good question, and I've thought of the answer when I was doing it before.
Then she turned back and explained to him:
"If you think about it, this Boss Mai's children only cry for three or four hours at night, and the rest of the time they are unharmed.
It shows that the activity of this stone will only be stimulated during that time. The group of migrant workers who transported the stones also spent the night with the stones in the middle of the night, and it was only at dawn that they found that they were all dead.
However, the experts who studied the stones were unharmed, presumably they studied in the cave or in the real room during the day, and went back to rest at night, so they were not threatened.
Since the magnetic field of the stone itself is much greater than that of a stream that merely flows, the lethality of this kind of direct close contact with the stone must be far greater than that of a ghost fetus formed by drinking into the stomach. ā
After listening to my words, several people nodded silently, although this is only my current subjective guess, but it should be eight or nine and ten.
As for the reason why the survivor who is now receiving the real yĆ n in the scientific research institute in Kunming escaped from death - I am even more convinced in my heart that he must also be an ancestral spirit of pure art ancestral blood.
"So, where is that green doll now? Will they still come to my child? Boss Mai asked nervously.
"Don't worry, it's just a parasite-like ghost fetus, now it's in my pocket, I'm going to take it back to study it well, don't worry, it's just an aura, it doesn't have any intelligence, it's impossible to come back to you." I patted the bird's head box in my pocket and signaled to them to reassure.
Boss Mai nodded first, then raised his head and asked, "Then my child, you said it was a child's life...... And the previous two were also children's lives, which ...... Why is it so coincidental, and is this child still in danger? ā
I shook my head: "The life of a child is commonplace, there will be one in dozens of people, as for your family three in a row, I think maybe it is not the problem of the child, but the problem of the creation of your husband and wife."
Probably because of the cause and effect of your previous life, I can't say a specific answer, but since it is a child's life, if you want to raise him smoothly, you should send him to some temples and Taoist temples to study and live for a period of time since he was a child, so that he can accept some religious ideas and enlighten his innate wisdom; Second, developing compassion will naturally help him change his fortunes in the future. ā
Boss Mai nodded yes and said that when the child is older, he will send him to a temple in Myanmar to be a small novice for a few years.
I saw that it was not too early, and I had to go to Yundian University tomorrow, so I was ready to get up and say goodbye.
Boss Mai and his wife thanked us for sending us to the door, and insisted that we have lunch in their store at noon tomorrow before leaving.
On the way back to the room, Jin Facai saw that Ayido was moving freely, and after asking the reason, he secretly grinned at me again, this guy's mind is really obscene.
Naturally, Ayido didn't see it, but just asked me what to do with the ghost fetus in the bird's head box.
I don't know yet, and I don't dare open it at will, but I always have a thought in my head that taking the contents of this box with me on the road will definitely come in handy sometimes.
When they returned to their rooms, it was already beginning to dawn, and they had not slept well for two nights in a row, and they were already exhausted.
Ayiduo is very energetic because she has just witnessed the whole process of casting a spell, and she keeps asking questions, no wonder she, now as a body of the underworld, can watch a ritual of ambushing the same kind in half-hiding and half-hiding, and it is impossible for anyone to be calm for a while.
But I finally couldn't hold back my tiredness, and reclined on the sofa in the living room and listened to Ayido chatter on the side...... The voice flickered and flickered like a lullaby......
I don't know how long I slept, but when I woke up, I was still lying on the sofa in the living room. Rubbing his hazy sleepy eyes, seeing that Ayido was not in the living room, he just wanted to scream, and he was afraid that she was resting in the bedroom and alarmed her, so he walked softly to the bedroom and pushed the door in, but he didn't see her, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, did he go out?
I whispered to the hallway again, and when I saw that the bathroom door was not closed and the lights were on, I called out her name and strode over.
When I walked to the door, I saw her standing in front of the mirror, and when she heard my shout, she quickly lowered her head and wiped her eyes, looked back and asked me with a smile, "Why did you wake up so quickly?" ā
I saw that her eyes were red, as if she had just cried. She just stood stupidly in front of the mirror, and I looked at the mirror where only my own shadow was in the mirror, and I understood her sadness.
"Why are you looking in the mirror again, when I study your spell to bring the dead back to life, I can let you look in the mirror, don't be sad now, you will be fine, not to mention that with me, you are also safe now, rest assured."
I comforted her, raised my hand to help her wipe the tears from her face, and ran my fingers across her cheeks, which was a soft and warm coldness, like wiping the snow marks on the petals of a flower under the plum blossom in winter.
"I'm fine, don't worry" She smiled and wiped her cheeks again: "I just haven't seen myself for a long time, and I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable, Brother Bi Mo, your bronze mirror that can reflect the green doll can also reflect me?" ā
I was also very curious when she asked me this, after all, I used it before, although theoretically speaking, it played the role of deterring the spirits so that they had nowhere to hide, but I didn't see anything in the mirror once, but Ayido could see the ghost fetus in the mirror before, so it can be seen that this ghost can be reflected from this mirror. So why not take care of yourself for Ayido?
I walked quickly to the living room and took out the bronze mirror wrapped in red cloth from my backpack, but then I was a little worried: this gossip bronze mirror is blessed with a family heirloom spell, and it must contain a lot of power that mortals can't perceive......
"This mirror, if it shines directly on you, may cause an accident, so you can't be so rash." I still stuffed the mirror back into my bag: "This is not an ordinary bronze mirror, every time I used to do it, the function of this mirror was to calm the soul that was illuminated, and the light it reflected hit your body, which may consume your primordial spirit." ā
"Well, what if it doesn't shine directly on me?" She asked, still a little unwillingly.
"It's not just on you, of course, it's fine, but how can you see yourself?"
"There's a way to this!" She suddenly slapped her palm and smiled: "You look at this bronze mirror in the big glass mirror in the bathroom, and I stand on the edge of the copper mirror, so that the copper mirror can pass through the reflection of the copper mirror in the large glass mirror, and then shine back on me, so that I can look at the big glass mirror and see myself in the bronze mirror mirror there?" ā
Probably just fell asleep in a daze, and she couldn't react to what she said for a while. rearranged the logic she said in her mind, and it seemed to make some sense.
"Clever! How did you come up with this idea? "I was a little surprised at how quickly she reacted.
"Well, it's too simple, you people in the city naturally can't think of it, we people who often walk in the mountains have an experience, that is, if two people are separated in the mountains and can't hear each other, then shout to the surrounding mountains, through the echo of the mountains, so that the other party can hear themselves."
"Oh~! I understand! You mean, the mirror in this bathroom is equivalent to the mountain, and the image of you in the bronze mirror is the echo, right? "It dawned on me.
I took the bronze mirror out again, set it up in front of the large glass mirror according to Ayido's method, and told her to try it.
Ayido looked a little apprehensive, she was in a hurry to urge me to hurry up, but when it was time to look in the mirror, she became hesitant, but finally slowly moved to the edge of the bronze mirror, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, slowly opened her eyes, and looked at the bronze mirror in the glass mirror......
"How? Can you see it? I saw her standing there, staring motionless in the mirror.
She didn't answer me, maybe she didn't hear me at all, but her eyes glistened with tears, and then large tears flowed down her cheeks, but before they could reach the ground, they dissipated.
She raised her hands and gently stroked her face, her fingers touching her face inch by inch, her ears, mouth, nose, eyes, and forehead, as if she were blind touching a stranger, combing her long hair with her fingers, and turning her face from side to side, trying to look at herself from different angles......
I stopped interrupting her train of thought, and I couldn't understand her exact mood at this point.
But I can imagine that a young girl in the flowering season, who once had a little pride and narcissism even with her beauty, could not look in the mirror at all for more than a year, unable to see her own face, and that kind of torment was tantamount to an unbearable torture.
Now her rolling tears, is it a kind of joy that has not been released for a long time, or a kind of regret that is difficult to recover, or a kind of despair?
"Brother Bi Mo, I want to take a bath, can you go out first?" She suddenly looked in the mirror and said in a daze as she touched her hair.
"What...... What the? Bathe? "I was suddenly confused by her inexplicable thought, a body with only a phantom form, what kind of bath do you take...... But after thinking about it, I realized that she should have wanted to see the whole of herself thoroughly...... Well, I can't stand on the side at this time.
"Okay, then you have to pay attention yourself, don't face the bronze mirror directly, remember to keep your distance, then I'll go out and wait for you."
I don't know if she understood, but she nodded blankly and didn't reply to my words.
I saw that she no longer answered, but raised her hand and began to untie the placket of the black shirt, so I walked out of the bathroom with a sense of humor, and gently closed the door and returned to the living room.
I didn't feel sleepy for a while, so I turned on the computer again to look at the ancient Yi spells sent by the old man, although my eyes mechanically scanned the words, but my thoughts were not on it at all, and many recent things flashed in my mind, but none of them seemed to have a clue.
Going to Yundian University tomorrow morning to find that survivor is the most important thing in front of us, but what will happen after finding it? The biggest mystery is of course the greatest mystery in what form that legend of 3,000 years will appear in this world, and before this mystery arrives, all kinds of small mysteries have already appeared in front of me: the ghost that possesses Sister Ming, the dream that will recur every month, the girl who lives on the top floor who meets in the elevator and does not exist zĆ i, the woman who appears at the time of meditation and the empty elder, the old loach and his grandfather, the strange mine cave and the ghost fetus in Burma, There are also Ah Zi's parents and clansmen who suddenly disappeared......
I put down the computer and leaned back on the sofa, my thoughts combed over and over again but became more and more chaotic, if a qiÄ can be flipped through with the fast-forward key, I really want to click to the end to see the final ending, but this qiÄ is obviously still very, very far away, far to ...... Even half of the protagonist of the story has not yet shown his face...... For example, the remaining three friends, who are you and where are you......
