I stood aside, staring at the Xiangtou from a distance and asked the little black fat man: "Hey, what is Master Jiu doing?"
The fat little black man's behavior was similar to mine. He sat in the grass on the side and lit a cigarette for himself. He took a deep breath, then pursed his lips and said quietly: "I really don't know about this, I guess...
.They must be sacrificing something."
"Are you sure?" I said, looking at him with distrust.
"Nonsense, if I could be sure, I would still be here to quarrel with you." The little black fat man said, pulling up his collar and adding: "He has done similar things before, but in a place like this he still does it
The first time I saw him, did he see his little bag? It contained either grave soil or incense ashes from the temple, as well as the figure under his feet. The figure was different every time. I thought it was a symbol of some kind of ritual."
"oh......"
Listening to what he said, this guess is quite reliable. When I walked over, Master Jiu had already finished praying. At this time, he took out a flower bowl with blue edges from his large travel pocket.
, it looked quite plain and shabby. He looked around the pottery bowl, and used a saber to knock a gap at the mouth of the bowl. He looked left and right, then nodded as if he was satisfied.
, then, the old guy used wax oil to fix a small half candle about two fingers thick in the bowl.
The pottery bowl with a white candle was placed in the water, just floating on the surface of the water.
When it got darker, Lord Jiu asked me to bring the little pig over. The little pig was quite thin, but in good spirits, running around happily as if he had gotten some big deal.
Watching Master Jiu take out the saber with the deep blood groove, I had an ominous premonition. Among the limited exposure to their profession, the bloodletting plot left the deepest impression on me. Catch
Ghost Taoist priests love to use blood. They kill chickens and dogs by the handful, and it is not uncommon for them to bite their own fingers and bleed them.
Master Jiu frowned when he saw me, smiled honestly, and ordered me to hug the little pig and cut open its ears with a knife. The little thing was so strong that it screamed and twisted wildly, almost uncontrollably.
.
But Jin Jiuye was a veteran after all, so he immediately took the small bowl with the candle over as if he had been prepared.
In just three to five seconds, the bubbly pig blood covered the entire bottom of the bowl.
"Is this the end?" I asked quickly when I saw him turning to leave with the pig's blood that was not even in the cup.
"What do you think?" Master Jiu asked after hearing this.
"Are you sure this is enough?" I asked again with lingering fear.
Master Jiu laughed when he saw me like this, and then he took the pottery bowl and said to me: "It doesn't have to be a lot of blood, just enough material. What age are we in now? Do you think we are still cutting chicken and dog blood just for a little bit of blood like we used to do?"
Have you cut their throats? If you come out to mess around, you will have to pay back sooner or later."
After saying that, he shook his head habitually.
"Holy shit, what should I do about this?" I said, shaking the rope in my hand and asking him.
"Let it go." He said and walked to the river without looking back.
Following his instructions, I untied the piglet and let it go. The little black fat man looked at its retreating back and said it was a pity. While talking about how good the roasted suckling pig was, he cleaned up the battlefield neatly.
At this time, Jin Jiuye was not idle. He placed the candle with pig blood and white candles by the river, and then intertwined his hands to form a very complicated "handprint". When I saw that "handprint", I remembered that time
A very popular cartoon, but Jin Jiuye's handprints are much more complicated than that.
While forming the seal, he kept staring at the pottery bowl floating on the water. After about three slow steps, his five fingers were intertwined at a staggering level. Almost at the same time,
The pottery bowl floating on the water began to rotate slowly.
At first, the rotation speed was very slow, but as time went by, the rotation speed of the porcelain bowl was increasing sharply. Just when a small vortex was about to form on the water, Jin Jiuye's fat body shook violently.
At the same time, the spinning white candle "popped" and "burned"!
The sky was almost completely dark at that time, and the pale yellow candlelight was particularly dazzling in the night. I stood next to him, so I saw the process clearly.
The moment the fire suddenly appeared, he staggered and almost fell to the ground. From the beginning to the end, no part of Jin Jiuye's body came into contact with the candle, but the pottery bowl holding the candle spun around like flying, and then
It spontaneously combusts like "making fire through wood"!
OMG...how did this happen?
As I watched the rotating pottery bowl float into the water, inexplicable fear rose from the bottom of my heart. When I looked at Jin Jiuye again, I was immediately shocked by an indescribable and powerful aura. I had felt that before.
This person is quite awesome. Now I feel that this person is so awesome. Who the hell is he? It’s amazing!
"Stop looking, let's go."
At this moment, the little black fat man came over from behind. He was holding two big sticks that were often used in fights when he was a child. He handed one to me and took the other in his own hand. We followed the man slowly on the water.
The slow-moving pottery bowl went all the way down, and soon entered the pond from the river. Along the way, the three people didn't say a word. The distance between the pottery bowl and us continued to get farther and farther, until the mark on the pottery bowl
The light suddenly disappeared and we stopped and stood still.
"This is it." Jiu Ye stared at the water and lowered his voice to us.
"What should we do?" squatting in the grass, the fat little black man asked him.
"Don't worry about anything, wait for him to come out." Jin Jiuye said, untied the rope from his waist that was exactly the same as mine, tied a lasso in his hand and threw it out, and quickly threw a similar flashlight
The luminous object goes into the trap.
I looked at that thing that was smaller than a potato and was speechless for a while. Is this called a trap?
"Which one of you is more courageous?" At this time, Jin Jiuye, who was tinkering with the rope, suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Xiaopang and I were both stunned, and then pointed at each other in unison, "He."
"..." Jin Jiuye was speechless when he saw this. Then he patted me on the shoulder and said to me, "Lu Li, you go first, stand in the circle and put the rope on your feet." Jin Jiuye said.
Master Jiu said, pointing to his trap and saying to me.
"Don't worry, it's okay." Seeing that I didn't move, he said again.
Five minutes later, I sat on a big rock by the river like a monkey, looking at the water covered with lotus leaves a little sadly, and silently greeting the fat thieves and their families from the bottom of my heart.
