"So to speak."

Sun Daqiao said: "At least in ancient times, shadow puppets were used to absorb the souls of the dead, just like the animals, but later the shadow puppet was adapted into a shadow puppet play, since then, the nature of the shadow puppet has changed, this is like a dance, in ancient times the dance was the witch prayer, but also the witch used to communicate with the gods, and later, the psychic meaning became less and less, and gradually became the dance of the court banquet and drink." ”

Yue Erpao said curiously: "Then this is strange, why are all these witchcraft gone, and they are evolving more and more towards culture and art, shouldn't it be that the longer the time, the more powerful the witchcraft becomes." ”

Song Siyuan retorted: "Witchcraft has been suppressed since the Yanhuang era, until the Zhou Dynasty began to be completely abolished as obscene wild sacrifices, since then, witchcraft and witchcraft have been suppressed by orthodox civilization, and most witchcraft has either disappeared directly, or, combined with other things, used to hide the traces of ancient witchcraft. ”

"Dance, shadow puppetry, watching the falling yin, dancing the great gods, and witchcraft, these things are all branches of ancient witchcraft, and they are also ancient secret arts produced by the combination of witchcraft and other customs, you can understand witchcraft as parasites, and whenever possible, witchcraft can parasitize on any folklore."

She paused and sighed: "I think, even in modern times, ancient witchcraft is also a symbol of evil, in the era of ancient orthodox civilization rule, the situation of witchcraft and witchcraft will definitely not be good, they can only continue to eliminate the traces of existence, and at the same time parasitize in various folk activities in order to reproduce." ”

She picked up the shadow puppet: "For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, just heard that someone cursed him, so he punished each other in the palace, encouraged the palace people to report and expose each other, and directly killed nearly 100,000 people in the former dynasty, harem, and the people, causing these palace people to talk about witchcraft. ”

"Song Qianjin plans to use shadow puppets to help my sister recall the past, and she also wants to use witchcraft?"

Banshu walked to the courtyard and said.

At this moment, Banshu had already taken off the mask covering his face, and everyone had been very curious about the face under the mask before, but out of politeness, they didn't dare to ask him why he wore the mask all the time, thinking that it was probably because of some ugly mark and scar on his face, or simply to avoid being recognized.

Right now, when everyone saw his face, their eyes couldn't help but light up.

Banshu's face, seriously compared to the shock, even if not particularly exquisite, is definitely upright and handsome, the facial features are extremely evenly distributed on the face, the eyebrows are full of bookish gas, a little red mark in the center of the eyebrows, very special, there is a kind of clear and gentle that does not belong to his age, it is not too much to say that he is a teenager, and he is not in his thirties at all.

The most special thing is his skin!

According to Yue Guanchao's words, the skin is whiter than the big girl, as long as it is a man's skin is whiter, at least the wind and sun will leave traces, like him is as white as if the powder has been wiped for many years, there is a feeling of delicate white porcelain, it looks like a paper boy has been resurrected.

Because of the unique complexion of a living person on his face, he didn't feel scary when he saw it, but only felt that he was carved in pink and jade, like a god.

"Leader Ban, since you are also handsome, you wear a mask to cover this good skin in vain." Yue Guanchao didn't expect that there was nothing else under the mask.

"Walking the rivers and lakes is the most taboo to be conspicuous and dazzling, my appearance is too special, if I am remembered, it is easy to be recognized, and it is easy to put on a mask to calm people first."

Banshu's words are true, he is so carved jade, there is really a person in history who is exactly the same as him, legend has it that Wei Jue of the Jin Dynasty was very handsome when he was young, and he looked different from ordinary people, and he entered the market by sheep cart every day, often attracting nearby women to surround him, called jade people.

If Wei Jue had lived until now, he would probably be like Ban Shu, who is carved with jade and jade, and the ice is clear and jade!

"I didn't expect to look so good, we thought you were ugly to wear a mask."

Yue Erpao's words made Xu Xiake quickly shake him a few times: "People can't look good, who knows that there is such a face behind the mask, then it is safe for you to wear a mask, but I am a little curious, are you born with such white skin, or because of years of powder maintenance." ”

Xu Xiake was indeed curious about Banshu's face, this kind of face like a god, at first glance, it was not an ordinary child.

"I've been like this since I was a child, and I don't usually have the habit of applying grease and powder, it's a completely natural complexion, and I don't know why it's so white," says Banshu. ”

"If it's natural, it's your parents."

Xu Xiake's words, Yue Guanchao had already guessed what he meant, this snow-white complexion, if it was an animal, was probably an albino animal in Shennongjia.

Ban Shu shook his head, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes: "Then I don't know this, I have been in Chaoyun Villa since I was sensible, I was only about three or four years old at that time, I had no impression of my parents, probably after I was born, they threw me away." ”

"So, have you ever looked for your parents? Have you ever asked them why they abandoned you? ”

Even the children in the orphanage have thought about finding their biological parents, and Banshu has unknown parents, probably at least thinking about finding their biological parents.

"Nope!"

Banshu replied very simply: "At the foot of Wushan, albinism will bring disaster to ominousness, I think, my biological parents think that my albinos are ominous, so they threw me into the mountains and was picked up by my sister, since the reason why I was discarded is already very clear, then there is nothing to find back." ”

"In other words, I really found them, I was still fair-skinned, and they still thought I was ominous, and there was nothing else to find."

When he said this, Ban Shu's eyes were very sad, probably, he was very mindful that his parents abandoned him into the mountains, back then, even if he was left at the door of the orphanage, he could still have a way to live, so ruthlessly thrown into the mountains, most likely because he wanted him to fend for himself, so thinking about it, he would inevitably be cold.

Song Siyuan saw that his face was a little embarrassed, he glanced at them a few times, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Since the fate is exhausted, there is no thought, the plan for today is to wake up Ban Wan quickly, we have prepared the shadow puppet, and the drawings I gave can be made by Ban Kui!" ”

Banshu nodded: "According to your drawings, the cage and shadow light box have been prepared, but I don't understand why your shadow light box is completely different from the ordinary light box." ”

Shadow puppetry is a folk art, roughly made of wood into a large square grid of ventilation before and after, covered with a white cloth in the middle, the craftsman stands behind the curtain to manipulate the shadow puppet, and so the light passes through the light box, you can see the shadow puppet like a living thing, the audience stands outside the light box, shaped like a stage to watch the play and sell well.

Song Siyuan's shadow puppet light box is like a lantern, and the four light boxes are completely connected, looking like a "vessel" shape, which is particularly strange.

She explained: "Ban Kuitou, not only are these light boxes strange, but the shadow puppet I want is also one size bigger, about the size of half a person, what I want is that the light box completely surrounds Ban Wan, and then I have to put her in a cage and put her in the middle of the shadow puppet light box, and when the shadow puppet starts on all sides, she has no escape, and she can't hide." ”

"Wouldn't that be a little too irritating for her?"

Banshu is still worried about Sister A's safety, in the past few days, he has made an exception to feed her the flesh and blood of animals, and the original thin physique is returning to normal, such a female monster is amazingly powerful, he had to strengthen the chains again, so he barely let her break free.

If he stimulates her too much, he can't guarantee that Ban Wan will break through the iron cage, and it won't be good to hurt someone again.

"Only by breaking can we stand up, Ban Wan has lost her mind for thirty years, and only in this way can she be awakened, if you are ready, then we will start tomorrow, how about it?"

As soon as Banshu's shadow puppet light box was made, everything was almost ready.

"Okay, then starting tomorrow, I'll feed Sister some Ganoderma lucidum water tonight."

With that, Banshu left the courtyard and continued to be busy with the chores in the villa.

"Hey, what's the matter with you guys, you keep asking about other people's life experiences, isn't this poking people's lung tubes in front of you!" Song Siyuan stretched out her index finger and pointed it one by one, feeling that she hated iron but not steel.

"It's just curiosity, Banshu is whiter than the big girl." Yue Erpao said with a smile.

"I think Banshu's background must be unusual." Xu Xiake touched his chin and narrowed his eyes, he was obviously extremely curious about Banshu's background.

"Do you think he's one of the albino animals?" Song Siyuan had already noticed this just now!

According to Banshu, albinism is ominous in Wushan, probably because albinos are not common, and it is difficult for her not to get closer to Shennongjia with such a connection.

"It can't be said that he is an animal."

Xu Xiake looked at everyone: "Wushan is far from Shennongjia, but it is only two hundred miles, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the closest settlement to Shennongjia, if Shennongjia really has albino animals, maybe it can really flow here, that Baijiang sturgeon is not the helper found by the god craftsman!" ”

"Perhaps, in addition to the appearance of albino animals in Shennongjia, there may also be albinos in Shennongjia, although the number of these people is very small, but they still exist, and it is precisely because the number of people is small and rare, as long as there are albinos born, they will be regarded as ominous by the people around them, and his parents abandoned him into the mountains, does it mean that as long as he is an albino person, he may be killed, and he will not live to grow up at all."

Song Siyuan pondered his words, nodded approvingly: "It makes sense, the snow white on the head of the class leader definitely has this secret, after we wake up Ban Wei, we must ask how she picked up Ban Shu in the first place, which is also helpful for us to unlock the secret of Shennongjia." ”
