Chapter 26 Ancient Sacrifice
It was not until noon that we finished our meal and left the village chief's house.
It was only after returning to Sun Ming's home that his cousin began to talk about the ancient sacrifice.
It turns out that in the past, there were people who really would seek help from others to perform this ancient sacrifice because they couldn't conceive.
The purpose is to continue the family line.
The person who helps to perform the ritual, whether it is a wizard or a Feng Shui master, basically does the same thing.
They would first find a good feng shui site in the village to bury the baby girl's skull.
"Only in this way can we ensure that all the Yang energy will go to that Feng Shui place. When the Yang energy is gathered, the man will dig out the woman's skull, grind it into powder, and give it to the couple who need to continue their offspring and mix it with wine to drink."
What?!
Although I have not received much education, this sounds like a fantasy to me.
Maybe my cousin saw my expression and he smiled.
"Don't think this is nonsense. There are indeed many people who use this method to continue their offspring, and the success rate is very high. That's because their Yang Qi is sufficient, which makes their bodies healthy."
But of course , if you take away other people's Yang energy, that person will attract Yin and dirty energy because of his weak body.
Just like what happened to Jin Yun before, if a person's Three Flavors True Fire becomes weak, it is easy to attract unclean things.
The last time Jin Yun was in trouble, it was thanks to my cousin and I that she was able to get through it safely.
But other villagers may not be so lucky.
If we can't find a Yin-Yang master to help deal with it, the situation will only get worse.
There is even a possibility that someone will die.
"Fifteen thousand dollars won't solve this problem. I need to talk to the village chief."
My cousin thought of something and hurried out.
I grabbed him and said, "You can't go over and talk to the village chief like this now. He is also a suspect now."
I told my cousin about my idea, for fear that he would get excited and tell the village chief something.
My cousin looked at me with a troubled look.
I know that this is a matter concerning the entire village, not just Uncle Wu’s old house.
And now it is obvious that Uncle Wu’s old house is the Feng Shui treasure land in this village.
We don't know where the girl's skull is.
But that pile of bones must have been part of the sacrifice.
When I thought of this, I felt that this was a big situation, and my scalp started to tingle instantly.
"Then what should we do?" Dong Jing looked at my cousin and me.
I swallowed and didn't answer.
The cousin rolled his eyes and looked at Dong Jing: "How about this, you go and tell the village chief about this, pretending to be very serious and scared. During this time, you have to pay attention to his expression and try to get as much information as possible from him."
"Xiao Jie, you, Sun Ming and I helped to deal with that pile of bones. But before that, let's deal with the homeless first."
tramp!
right!
And I forgot about him. Even if this matter has nothing to do with him, he must be involved in the totem on the coffin and the design of the coffin.
As soon as he finished speaking, the homeless man came out from the inner room.
After taking a shower, he looked much cleaner and fresher.
Strangely enough, he doesn't look like what we usually see him.
He looked very young, like he was in his early thirties, and he wasn't unkempt, so it was hard to guess his age.
"Uncle?"
His cousin looked at him in surprise, not knowing what to address him for a moment.
The homeless man looked very energetic, but his voice betrayed him when he greeted us.
Although he looked young, his voice was old.
"It's great that the children are back. Thank you so much for yesterday. I took a bath and feel much better. I'm leaving now."
Not to mention the fact that the homeless man deliberately avoided staying in the old house, I won’t let him off so easily.
"Don't go yet, I have something to ask you." I looked at the homeless man, reached out and patted the chair next to him, asking him to sit down.
He looked at me with a somewhat evasive look in his eyes.
But there were so many of us, and everyone was gathered here looking at him, so he had no choice but to sit down.
"I'm just working for others for money, so don't make things difficult for me." The homeless man smiled a little embarrassedly and sat down.
It turns out that the homeless people we saw were not what we thought they were at all.
Before he wandered around, he was a Taoist priest.
He practiced hard, and someone advised him to practice asceticism in his later years.
Following the man's advice, he started to live as a homeless person.
Gradually, he got used to this kind of life.
"How could you believe him?" I was a little surprised.
You can't just believe everything others say. There must be something about that person that makes him believe it.
Sure enough, the homeless man told me: "Look at me. Since I became a homeless man, I have become younger. My face is getting younger and younger. This makes me believe him."
"Who is that person?" asked my cousin, his face becoming serious.
I'm curious too.
Since that person is so powerful, it is definitely possible that he could have set up such a shocking situation.
"I don't know. I don't know that man. He is blind. I passed by in the city, and he was setting up a stall in the city. He obviously couldn't see, but he stopped me, and then what I told you above happened."
According to the homeless man, he saw the man several times later.
And this coffin was made by that person at his request.
As for the totem, it was a wooden board that the man sent over, and there was already this totem on it.
The clue ends here. We don’t even know what the totem symbolizes or who that person is.
But at least we know that such a person exists.
"Let's go," my cousin stood up and called to us, "Boys, follow me, let's go deal with that pile of bones."
He turned back to look at Dong Jing again: "Village Chief, please help me."
So we split into two groups, and my cousin, Sun Ming and I entered Uncle Wu's old house again.
My cousin told us on the way that the pile of bones were those of people who had lost all their yang energy.
"There are both men and women in this pile of bones. Something was wrapped around your neck last night. It was probably a female's vagina. You are lucky to be alright."
My cousin sighed and said, "Luckily, your grandmother helped you change your blood. Otherwise, you wouldn't even know how you died."
As we were talking, we arrived at the top floor of Uncle Wu’s old house, and the pile of bones was still there.
"What are you going to do?" I looked at my cousin.
He is more experienced in these areas, but I am a newbie who knows nothing.
My cousin looked at me with a serious look in his eyes, which made me suddenly feel a little uncomfortable.
"Boy, come with me and help me. Learn well, and we will make progress together in the future."
