The Snake Month refers to the fourth month of the lunar calendar, which is the fifth month according to the AD calendar.
Snake Month and Snake Day, according to this year's time, is almost in the middle of May in the Christian calendar.
Before that, the winner must be decided.
In other words, Ma Yunfeng may take action any day in the next four months.
"If Ma Yunfeng hasn't taken action before this, it means that he has given up on his own initiative, and he will hang himself to death."
"Or, after he takes action, if we don't get rid of the poison before the Snake Moon and Snake Sun, it will be considered a failure. We will hang ourselves, and vice versa."
Grandma said.
After hearing all these tips, I was secretly shocked.
There was even more turmoil in my heart. I didn't expect that this Gu fight would be so cruel, directly risking my life.
But at this point, we can no longer give in.
Sixteen years ago, my mother was pregnant with a corpse insect and ran away from home some time ago. It was all proven to be related to Luo Dongbao, and now it all points to Mayunfeng.
A life-and-death feud will only stop if one party dies.
"Go and get some roots from the century-old wild ginseng, and make a decoction for me to drink. After a while, we will leave the village and have a fight against poisonous insects," said grandma.
I said: "Grandma, tell me the rules, and I will take part in this fight!"
She had to use wild ginseng to refresh herself, which showed that grandma's health was extremely bad.
Grandma shook her head and said, "You and Ma Yunfeng are two generations apart, so you can't handle it."
"It's up to me to accept it. However, if I accept it, you may have to fight the real Gu."
I froze in place and didn't move.
"Dongsheng, you are a smart boy. Grandma doesn't have much time. Just do what I want."
There was a strong sadness in grandma's eyes.
My eyes turned red and I sighed, so I picked some roots of wild ginseng and made a bowl of medicine.
Grandma drank it and her complexion improved a lot. She washed her face with hot water and combed her hair neatly.
He looks quite dignified and has no fear.
Grandma walked out of the house with me on crutches.
In addition, she also asked me to bring three dried centipedes.
When I walked to the courtyard gate, I took off the paper figures hanging at the door, held the two paper figures, and walked out of Camellia Cave.
Suddenly, snowflakes fell on my face, and the chill instantly dissipated.
I raised my head and glanced at the sky. Snowflakes were falling one after another, and it was snowing again.
Arrive at the stream.
"After passing this stream, it is no longer within the scope of Camellia Cave. The silver snake Gu should be on the other side of the stream." Grandma stood on a stone and said calmly.
I looked across the stream. The snowflakes blocked my sight. I didn't see anything strange. I said, "I didn't see it. However, it must be Ma Yunfeng's idea that Ma Daya and his family rushed over tonight."
.”
Grandma smiled and said: "It's okay if you can't see it. Ma Yunfeng and his Silver Snake Gu don't dare to come over, because they are afraid of the first one. The tricks he did didn't bother you either. Hahaha... He
I have no choice but to risk my life."
"Grandma, why do we want to take over this Gu fight?" I asked.
Since Old Jincan was guarding him, Ma Yunfeng did not dare to show his face.
Then just leave him alone, why take on this problem.
Grandma said: "A hundred years ago, every household in Miao territory raised Gu, and there were constant fights. In order to avoid involving innocent people, Gu fighting appeared. This is a method passed down for thousands of years."
"Once you fight Gu, even the Gu God in each village cannot stop it. It's just that in recent years, there are fewer people raising Gu, so you young people don't know how to fight Gu."
"If we don't accept the Gu fight, even the Gu Goddess Tea Girl in our village will lose face. The insect that suppresses the village, Golden Silkworm, will also lose face. At that time, Ma Yunfeng can directly take action. This is an old rule
.”
I took a breath of air, I didn't expect there were so many things behind Dou Gu.
"It seems that he must kill them all." I said.
"But it's just what I wanted. We tried to use half a corpse insect mother to find him, but he didn't show up. He came to fight with us. He didn't throw himself into a trap." Grandma laughed loudly and loudly.
Suddenly, she stopped smiling and said, "Dongsheng, cut open the palm of your left hand and drop the blood on the snake's blood."
I did as I was told.
The paper figurine was stained with snow, and some of the snake blood had faded away a lot.
My blood fell on the paper figure, making a sizzling sound.
Grandma said: "The Great God Chi You is here to witness this. Before the Snake Moon and Snake Sun, there will be a distinction between high and low, as well as life and death. If this agreement is violated, the poison will bite back and all insects will gnaw at the heart. Those who should fight against the poison, Camellia Donglong
Change the grandson of Phoenix to Dongsheng. Enshrine him with three centipedes."
Only then did I understand that Mayunfeng offered two poisonous snakes as tribute.
Grandma gave three good-looking dried centipedes as tribute.
Then, grandma tied two red threads on the paper man.
The paper man who originally fell to the ground suddenly stood up and ran quickly along the river. This is an extremely difficult skill to learn to control a puppet.
The paper man reached the other side of the river and disappeared into darkness.
At this time, a dark figure faintly appeared on the other side of the stream, and said loudly: "Okay!"
Soon, the shadow on the opposite side gradually disappeared.
I felt that on the other side of the stream, a solid and oppressive atmosphere suddenly disappeared, and my whole body immediately felt much more relaxed.
Grandma was not in a hurry to leave. She looked around at the mountains, as if taking a last look at the mountains, and remained silent.
I didn't go up to disturb her. There must be many stories about her, and under this snowy night, many memories and past events would come to mind.
When I got home, it was already late at night.
The medicinal effect of wild ginseng had not yet worn off, and grandma was in good spirits. She said: "Dongsheng, in seven days... my life span will be over. You must not forget my instructions and send my body to the Peach Blossom Cave in Yaoshan."
Grandma's words were like a bolt from the blue.
I said, "Grandma, are you kidding me?"
Grandma shook her head and said, "An expert once saw me. At the age of seventy, I should be buried under the peach blossoms. My life is about to end, so there is nothing to be sad about."
"It's enough for me to be able to raise your mother and bring you up. It's enough for us to have such a long-term fate."
"It's a pity that I can't fight Ma Yunfeng personally. I don't know if you can... survive this Gu fight. Hey! He has the second best Silver Snake Gu in Miao Territory.
