107 Strange Rules

Sister Li said that her hometown is on the border of Liao Province, a small mountain village deep in the mountains.

The small mountain village is very old, and the villagers are very traditional and superstitious. The villagers firmly believe that the small mountain village is blessed by the true gods, and in order to worship the true gods, the small mountain village holds a sacrifice ceremony every year.

This year, the small mountain village has built a very luxurious temple for the true god. Now that the temple has been built, the day for this year's festival has arrived.

Sister Li asked someone to find Lin Daochang, hoping that Lin Daochang could go back to her hometown with her, to dispel the rumors that the small mountain village was blessed by a true god, so that the villagers would no longer believe in the existence of a true god.

Now that Lin Daochang is gone, Lin Xiaoqiu and I will go to popularize science for the villagers, so that they will not continue feudal superstition, or at least not even hold any more activities to worship the true gods.

Sister Li said these words, I was speechless.

Lin Xiaoqiu is a Taoist aunt, I am a disciple of the horse, and the two of us are engaged in the work of feudal superstition. But now she asks us to do science popularization for the villagers, telling them that there is no god in this world.

What is the difference between this kind of behavior and a scammer going to cheat? Moreover, I don't understand why Sister Li did this?

I said, "Sister Li, believing in the true god is just a belief in the hearts of the villagers, they have believed in it for so many years, why do you have to destroy their faith?" Are the villagers believing in the true God's actions causing you problems? ”

"It's not that it's causing me trouble, it's that it's causing trouble for the whole village."

Sister Li said, "If they just believe and just want me to donate some money to build the temple, of course I won't care about it." But in addition to these, there is a strange rule in our village when worshipping the true gods. ”

This rule is that all the villagers must be present during the sacrifice. If a villager fails to return to the village on the day of the sacrifice, within three days, the villager who did not return to the village to participate in the sacrifice will definitely die in an accident.

In addition, at the time of the sacrifice, the new year's sacrificial family will receive the sacred bones from the hands of the old sacrificial family.

The new sacrificial family that received the bones of the gods had to stay in the village for the next year, offering and cleaning the statues day and night. In short, the family was asked to stay in the village and guard the statue for a year.

During this year, the family must not step out of the village, otherwise not only will the family be punished by the true god, but the whole village will also be unlucky.

It is not until the second year of the sacrifice day that the sacred bones in their hands are passed on to the next sacrificial family, and the family has completed the task of worshipping the true god before they can leave the village.

"This year, it's my family's turn to sacrifice to the family,"

Sister Li said, "According to the rules, I will stay in the village for a year!" How is this possible? I have two companies in my hands, stay in a small mountain village, do I want to open my company!

How much business has to be delayed this year, and I can't afford to delay this time. Two little fairy girls, you two must break this feudal superstition and let me leave the village after participating in the sacrifice. ”

She said that the sacrifice was a feudal superstition, but in her heart she believed that there was a true god in the village. Otherwise, she would not have given up her work and returned to the village to participate in the sacrifice.

After all, if you really don't believe it, just ignore it, and you don't need to find someone to break this matter.

To be precise, her appeal should be that Lin Xiaoqiu and I will solve the 'true gods' of their village, so that their village will no longer have these rules, so that she will not have to stay in the village for the next year.

I sorted out the information that Sister Li said, and then asked her, "Sister Li, you just said that if you didn't rush back to the village, the people who participated in the sacrifice would die in an accident within three days, has this kind of thing happened before?" It's not a rumor, it's you really confirmed, did this kind of thing happen? ”

The feudal mountain village is closed to news, but there will be all kinds of exaggerated and strange legends.

So if it's just a rumor, then whether it's credible or not has to be said separately.

Sister Li said to me, "Tang Xiangu, I know what you want to be sure, and I can tell you clearly now that this kind of thing has really happened, and I have seen it with my own eyes."

I was just nine years old when I went back to the village with my parents to attend the sacrifice. Many of us children played together, and one of the little boys, because he was playful, ran out of the village on the day of the festival. The next day, the child jumped into a well and died.

The rumors of the festival day are true, so the villagers have been observing the custom of the family taking turns for a year to serve the true god. Now that this true god has seriously affected the normal life of me and the villagers, please ask the two little fairy girls to help us get rid of the control of the true god. ”

At this time, Lin Xiaoqiu asked, "Sister Li, has this true god blessed you?" ”

"No," Sister Li shook her head hurriedly, "No matter how adults or children in our village, they are not allowed to make a wish to the true god." One of the tasks of the sacrificial family to serve the true god for a year is to look at the idol and never allow anyone to make a wish to the idol. ”

"Don't make a wish?" I think that's a strange rule.

The whole village worships and serves the true God, but they do not make a wish to the true God for benefits.

You must know that the Buddha in the temple is eating dozens of yuan of incense every day and listening to the wishes of millions to get rich. That's human nature. And their village only worships and does not make wishes, which is unreasonable and very strange.

Lin Xiaoqiu was also curious and asked, "Sister Li, why can't you make a wish?" Who prescribes? ”

Sister Li shook her head, "I don't know who set this rule." I just know that this rule has existed for as long as I can remember. My grandfather said that we only worship the true God and do not ask the true God to do anything for us, so that we can show our filial piety to the true God. ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoqiu laughed twice, "Your village is sincere. ”

At this time, Sister Li's mobile phone rang, and the company was looking for her. She opened the notebook she carried with her and started her business in the car.

It's time to ask, Lin Xiaoqiu and I are almost the same. Sister Li got busy, so we didn't bother her anymore.

I lowered my voice and asked Lin Xiaoqiu, "Lin Xiaoqiu, do you think there really will be gods in their village?" ”

Lin Xiaoqiu took a sip of red wine with a goblet, then squinted with enjoyment on his face, and said to me, "How could there be!" Xiao Ning, the gods live in the sky, and mortals such as me are already fortunate to have the opportunity to see the true face of the gods in this life.

How could a god stay in the world, and how could he bless a small mountain village! The biggest possibility in their village is that someone has cursed them, and there are dirty things in the village that are tormenting this village.

Many people have already died in the village, so it can be seen that this thing is still a murderous thing. Xiao Ning, after we get to the place, we may have to fight a tough battle! ”

After speaking, Lin Xiaoqiu raised his head and drank half a glass of red wine.

I was startled and hurriedly said, "Don't drink anymore, you'll drink too much in a while!" ”

"This is sweet water," Lin Xiaoqiu disagreed, and poured another glass, "It's better than the sweet water sold in the shop, there is no alcohol at all, you can taste it." ”

She asked me to drink with her.

I waved my hand and refused, "After drinking this cup, you don't drink it either." ”

Lin Xiaoqiu ignored me, retreated to the car door with a wine glass and bottle, and turned his head to look at the scenery outside the car window while drinking red wine.

Sister Li told me not to worry, the sacrificial day is tomorrow, even if Lin Xiaoqiu drinks too much today and sleeps for one night, he will wake up drunk tomorrow.

Hearing Sister Li say this, I didn't persuade Lin Xiaoqiu again.

But we all ignore the fact that tomorrow will be counted from midnight tonight!

It's the day of the festival after midnight!
