1. Seeking life
In the north where it has rained, the air is moist and full of green freshness, and the people by the Longjiang River are busy, and soon the altar of more than ten meters is stacked with the method of stacking arhats on the table, and there are people walking back and forth, and offerings are placed on it: pig heads, sheep heads, incense burners, incense candles...... Black Dog Blood ......
Under the altar, a row of young Taoist priests in black robes had different appearances, pinching their fingers and chanting, and those who didn't understand couldn't hear what they were reading at all...... There was a middle-aged man on the side, holding a lighter with a charming smile, flattering the old Taoist in front of him, who was wearing a bright yellow Taoist robe, and the black Qiankun gossip picture behind him was particularly conspicuous: "Dao Chief, the altar will be ready soon." ”
"Alright, let's get up the altar. The old Taoist quickly took two puffs of cigarette, and his purple lips were disgusting to look at.
The old Taoist jumped and landed steadily in front of the sacrificial table, "Wow!" "Awesome!" "There are two hits!" The people in the audience boasted for a while, making the old Taoist even more carried away: "Poor Dao passed by Guibao Land many days ago, but I feel that this place is extraordinary, the dragon qi is rising, shining with auspicious light, the light of copper coins, only mixed with a black and purple demonic energy, presumably everyone knows it, today Zhang Daoyou pleaded in every way, Poor Dao will sacrifice to the sky for everyone today!"
"Okay!" The people in the audience were full of smiles and applause, what they didn't know was that this ordinary exorcism ritual could kill a living life.
Dang Ji Xiao stared at the middle-aged men and women worshipping not far away through the air window in the basement, this pair of men and women, she was very familiar with, they were her parents, and she was scornful of their behavior, if the truth of the land was effective, why did she turn a blind eye to her suffering? Speaking of which, Dang Ji Xiao has been locked up in this dim and damp basement for five years...... Five years, what a gray youth......
Twenty-three years ago, in the night of a thunderstorm, the mother gave birth to a baby girl holding a jade plate, the baby girl did not cry, and was beaten a few times by the midwife to the buttocks, but still did not cry, the midwife said: "If the child does not cry, it is difficult to live fifteen." At this time, the mother took the jade plate in her hand, and the baby girl cried loudly, so shocked that the midwife covered her ears and fled.
Dang Ji Xiao touched the white jade hanging on his chest, whose parents don't feel sorry for their children? Just because of their strangeness, are their parents so ruthless? She bit her lip, yes, if they really feel sorry for themselves, five years, how can they be willing to be locked up here for five years?
Everything happened five years ago, Dang Jixiao was eighteen years old at that time, in the prime of her youth, she and her classmates went to the riverside to play, there is a taboo on the riverside of the Longjiang River, that is, the grove in the east, you must not go, the classmates relied on it in the daytime, a few people bet, and walked in cautiously, two flat stacked bluestones quickly attracted their attention, the children went up to play, and after a while, several children began to be abnormal, singing ancient operas...... And so it sang until it got dark.
When the adults came to look for her, they all held torches to burn Dang Ji Xiao to death, because she was the only one and had nothing to do.
Since then, her parents have locked her in the basement of the Land Temple, saying that the incense of the Land Father-in-law can suppress the demonic energy.
Today, everyone in Xunlong Suburbs, including Dang Ji Xiao, thought that this was just a simple exorcism, but she didn't know that the old Taoist had already had her idea.
She was taken away, and her parents simply comforted her: "It's okay, Xiaoxiao, it's just a simple ritual," "Yes, in a while, Mom will make you something delicious." ”
Dang Ji Xiao didn't speak, nor did he resist, but he had already turned over a stomach full of disappointment and bitterness in his heart......
The scene of the ritual, which was still lively just now, became extremely depressing because of her arrival, and people exchanged heads and ears in private, discussing the biggest topic in the suburbs of Xunlong: "You said that the freak of the old party family is getting more and more beautiful," "That's it, just her, when she grows up, she will also be a .................. of trouble" "My family doesn't care what she looks like, as long as she doesn't harm our neighbors..."
Dang Ji Xiao pursed his dry lips, powerless to resist everything, the uncles and aunts in the audience, as well as his parents and parents, raised their heads in anticipation.
"Ahem," the old Taoist cleared his throat, "the auspicious time has come." The little Taoist priest below began to sit in two rows, muttering mantras, and the old Taoist chief waved a peachwood sword covered with yellow rune paper, and shook it three times on the incense burner that was slowly rising, "Nine Stars Tianchen, Eight Heavenly Thunder, I invite the gods to sit on my honored guest, Seven Dou Bodhi, and the Six Roads Army raises the altar to protect the Dharma body~~Hmph, hehehe~~"
Dang Ji Xiao frowned, this weird tone was different from the previous exorcism spells...... It doesn't always feel like a good song...... Moreover, on the talisman paper of his peachwood sword, the exorcism talisman does not seem to be quite right......... He turned around three times in his yellow robe, and the dust from the corners of his clothes choked her coughing... Sure enough, she glanced at the word "death" on the rune paper! It was written in red cinnabar!
"That's not right!" Dang Jixiao got up from the stool and shouted, she wanted to tell the parents in the audience that this was not an exorcism, this was a talisman!!
"Eh! Oh no! The evil qi in this child's body is messed up, come and hold her!" The old Taoist quickly pressed Dang Jixiao on the stool with one hand, and quickly found a strip of cloth with the other hand and stuffed it into her mouth.
Dang Jixiao's eyes widened, wave after wave of people rushed to the stage, tied her to the pillar behind her with a rope, she kept struggling, because she knew the difference between exorcism and life-seeking magic!
"No! Stop!" A woman not far away ran over, broke into the crowd, and wanted to rush to the stage, but was stopped by Uncle Zhang.
"Juanzi!"
"Dad, you tell the Taoist to stop, Dad, I've been watching it for a long time, I usually do exorcism, Xiaoxiao has never resisted, look at her, the rope is bleeding on her! Dad..."
Uncle Zhang looked back and scolded: "What do you know about a child! If you don't drive away the demonic qi in Dang Ji Xiao's body, where will there be a peaceful day in the suburbs of Xunlong, let's ...... Where are we going to get the money......" The last sentence was of course whispered in Zhang Juan's ear.
"Dad, you can't do this!" Zhang Juan knelt down, "Dad, you also know that Xiaoxiao saved my life!"
Old Zhang drooped his head, of course he knew about this, and only their family knew, six years ago, Zhang Juan had just graduated from college, and had not yet found a job, of course, he had not found a boyfriend, and his belly was big, and he made an appointment with his roommate to climb the mountain a month ago, only a month, his belly was as big as a pot, Zhang Juan was in a hurry to go to the doctor to find Dang Ji Xiao, Dang Ji Xiao came down and found someone to show her, Zhang Juan naturally didn't know anything, just slept and raised it for half a month, and these, Dang Jixiao couldn't be clearer, because that night...... She and an old witch gave birth to her, gave birth to a pot of spiders and snakes, and the next day lied that Zhang Juan had offended the mountain ghosts in the mountains, and let her go home and burn the gourd she brought back from the mountains.
But Lao Zhang also knows that yesterday, he just received 100,000 cash from the old Taoist, he has never seen so much money, neatly bundled into ten stacks, as long as he thinks of money, Lao Zhang is ruthless, anyway, it's not me who does this...... ~
At this time, Dang Jixiao could vaguely feel some changes in the air around him, and suddenly there was a gust of cloudy wind, accompanied by a disgusting smell, like a whirlwind in the desert flying around...
"The unjust soul hidden in the depths of hell~ Please allow me to use your power to ...... this woman" As he spoke, the Taoist pointed his sword at Dang Ji Xiao, "Ask for your life!!"
"No!Dao Chief, stop it!!" "Zhang Juan, come back to me!"
"Hmmmm........." Dang Ji Xiao struggled even more, and he couldn't shout any clear words from his blocked mouth...... At this time, ghostly laughter mixed with the buzzing in my ears sounded...... "Hmmmmhahaha...""Hahaha, I want her life, I want her life!" "You also have today!"
