When Yuan Xinghan had a happy chat with the tourist, the grand ceremony began.
The bonfire ignited, and the strange and old syllables shouted from the mouth of the dancers, high-pitched, and the sacrificial performers knocked on the sacrificial vessels, stepped on the beat, and danced with the bonfire.
The drums were rumbling and deafening, and the fire-breathing witch was like a god, bringing the sacrificial performance to a climax quickly.
The Nuo (nuo) play begins, and the masked witches enter the arena, swinging their arms, stepping to the beat, and spraying flames. The leader's hair is disheveled, and a mouthful of water is sprayed into the sky.
boom -
"Oh~oh~"
The monkey-like cry sounds funny, but it is very shocking on certain occasions, and everyone equates this sound with the original in their hearts.
The leader, Wu Zhu, flicked his robe and his mask changed.
Just now it was the god of fire, but now it is the god of rain, and the dancers around them knelt down, slapped their mouths, and let out strange screams.
boom -
There was another thunderclap.
Wu Zhu stretched out his hands, facing the vast sky. In the evening, when it was sunny just now, it suddenly rained heavily.
The clouds were thick and the rain was pouring, but the bonfire did not go out.
Those tourists were shocked by this scene and had nothing to say. The visual impact of this original performance is definitely not inferior to that of a large-scale stage show, and it is still a 3D effect.
"Ah! The rain evaporates before it hits the ground. It's amazing!"
"Is it only in Turpan?"
"Is this from a sacrifice?"
All tourists were shocked.
Qin Kun stretched out his hand and clicked his tongue again and again.
"The weather turns into rain?"
How could this kind of Taoism be applied to performances?
Recalling the deceptive legends of ancient Taoist practices, it seems that Taoism was used in performances from the very beginning.Is this the original intention of Taoism to solidify people's hearts?
Is this the core of "A major event of the country lies in the sacrificial and military affairs"?
Sacrifice is for the purpose of gathering people's hearts...
A super-scale performance show, when everyone returned to the Wushen Inn, none of them came back to their senses.
Xu Yang, Wu Senran, and Tu Xuanxuan, who have a relatively good family background, often travel, but they have never seen a sacrificial performance that can be so shocking in all parts of China.
In addition to being shocked by the seven stone statues at the beginning, since then, I have been deeply involved in acting and cannot extricate myself.
The same is true for Dr. Shen, who watched the performance like an idiot from beginning to end, and rarely took a few photos as souvenirs.
The same goes for Chen Dasan, Yuan Xinghan, and Du Qinghan.
In the room, Du Qinghan was much happier than usual today, and said to Qin Kun with a smile: "It's really interesting to come out and play."
"After that, you will come out with the group more often."
"Yeah. By the way, you just started from the show, you don't even care about eating meat, why keep staring at the leader Wu Zhu?"
Qin Kun didn't expect Du Qinghan to observe such details, and touched his nose and smiled, "It's nothing, it seems to be an acquaintance. I'll go out tonight."
……
At noon, I went to the Tengshe Temple, and in the evening I watched the performance. At 11 o'clock in the evening, the town returned to its previous calm.
A hot pot stand with red soup, sitting with the witches performing today.
A table in twos and threes, eating Jiugongge, just received the appearance fee, very happy.
At one of the tables sat a young man in a hemp robe. The young man was no longer dressed like a witch with disheveled hair. His hair was neatly tied up in a bun, and his mouth was exposed under the mask, tasting the hairy belly in the pot.
Sitting opposite Qin Kun, the young man in hemp robe smiled: "What a surprise, I didn't expect to meet you here..."
Qin Kun ordered a bottle of beer and shrugged his shoulders: "It's really surprising. I didn't expect Feng Duguan's true biography to become a street artist performing Nuo opera... and he didn't hesitate to show off his dark side."
The young man laughed, this person is Hua Pixian's disciple, the true biography of Feng Duguan - Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji was smiling. Compared with him who was imprisoned before, he was much more cheerful. He recalled, "Mao Shandan will end, which hit me hard. Who would have thought that being defeated by you in the karma line would be a shame to me." .”
"It was quite decadent at that time. I am Huapixian's true disciple. If you are eliminated in this way, you will become my demon."
"Later, not long after, Master drove me down the mountain. He didn't give me food, drink, or money..."
Mo Wuji's mask turned into a wry smile, "I was hungry for two days and two nights, my demons became more and more serious, and my body couldn't take it anymore. In the end, there was nothing I could do. Master ordered no one to help me, and forced me to work to make ends meet... …No, the performance troupe you just joined, it’s 300 for one appearance, food, drink and lodging, okay?”
Qin Kun laughed, Hua Pixian is also a wonderful person, the disciple had already received a heavy blow in the Maoshan Alchemy Association, who knew that the old man would ignore him and kick him out of the sect.
This method is good...
Taoist priests have been born for too long, and it will become difficult to join the WTO. They do not have the basic ability to survive, and they will inevitably be hit by others.
Qin Kun took a sip of his wine and said with a smile, "Why don't you help people catch ghosts and exorcise them?"
Mo Wuji was dejected: "I can't find a way. As you can see, I was dressed in a weird way. Before the Taiji Demon is perfect, I can't take off the mask. Who will trust me to help? All the way from Fengdu to watch the mountain, and perform with the group. Coming here, I suffered a lot of scolding, alas... I admire Senior Brother Xu Facheng a little now, and of course, I admire you even more."
Qin Kun clearly felt that Mo Wuji's attitude towards him had changed greatly.
I don't know if it's because Mao Shandan is overwhelmed by being defeated by him, or because he admires his generous social experience, in short, he is no longer as indifferent as before.
"Are those people this afternoon members of the travel agency you, Junior Sister Chu, and Junior Brother Wang opened?"
"Correct."
"How long are you staying here?"
"Leave tomorrow."
Mo Wuji nodded: "I was ignorant before, and I have never visited you in Linjiang, so why don't I treat you to a hot pot meal today?"
Qin Kun looked at the Jiugongge where the red oil was rolling, but he was really not interested.
"Forget it, there's no sincerity at all. At least I invited Hua Pixian to eat wontons." Qin Kun gave Mo Wuji a blank look.
Mo Wuji panicked, and quickly shouted: "Don't! Don't go! Qin Kun, can I take a step back and exchange for a mandarin duck?"
Chapter 0929 Do You Know Who I Am?
In September, all parts of China entered the stove mode.
According to the superstition of the Dao of Life and Death, the world is getting hotter and hotter, which is because the world is peaceful and the yang is stronger than the yin. If it is in an era of war, even in the heat of summer, you will feel like you have fallen into an ice cellar.
Qin Kun didn't have the time to prove whether the fallacies were right or wrong. He never thought that people on the boat would be exposed like this.
Farewell to Mo Wuji, unable to withstand everyone's begging, he was forced to change the travel route, starting from Wushen Town, taking the Yangtze River Road, entering Yu City, staying in the famous Hongya Cave for one night, and then returning the same way, continuing Go to the second stop.
During the day, you can take the boat of the Yang people for sightseeing, but at night, you have to go on the boat of the Yin people.
"Fly the boat and drink good wine! It's not that friends don't get together!"
"By the Nie Shui, the road is easy to walk! Look here, masters! Erlang will take you across the river mouth!"
The voice is loud and clear, with childishness, adding a touch of lively absurdity to the gloomy river surface.
At the bow of the big boat, Qin Kun couldn't see the fishing fire in his eyes, and knew that the boat must be going on a dark road.Next to him was a boatman with a bruised nose and a swollen face, wearing a tattered gown, smiling obsequiously at Qin Kun.
"Master...you said you were one of us, we wouldn't have such a misunderstanding..."
Today, when burning incense and paper by the river, this water ghost named 'Jiang Xiaoer' appeared. This guy is no better than the 'Snake in the Waves' that Qin Kun knew before. A good bird, after death, he was enlightened by people and did a lot of good deeds to get rid of his bad karma. But maybe it was due to his habits during his lifetime. This guy is very majestic and likes to scare people.
Called by Yan Junjian, as soon as Jiang Xiaoer, who appeared in the boat, came ashore, he threatened to ask the guys in the tour group to kowtow, otherwise they would all be thrown into the water to feed the fish.
As soon as these words came out, Qin Kun's cheeks were livid with anger. He had been in contact with Yincao and Five Elements for so long, and he had never seen such an arrogant guy.
When he got angry, no one else could stop him. The parents who beat him almost didn't know each other, so they stopped their anger. If he didn't smell the strange smell on his body, Jiang Xiaoer would have been out of his wits by now.
Seeing Jiang Xiaoer's bruised nose and swollen face, Qin Kun pinched his chin and taught him a lesson: "The person who burns Yan Junjian at night and burns incense and hires a boat can be an ordinary person? Don't use your pig's brain to think about it. Do you have to be beaten up? Doesn’t this ruin my good name..."
Jiang Xiaoer had a mouthful of old blood in his throat, and he was so pissed off that he lowered his head and said dejectedly, "That's not necessarily the case. There are also many Yang people who travel at night in Bashu, and some people will take a boat for convenience... It's our fault It's not that I didn't take it..."
Um?Do the local people really deal with ghosts?
Qin Kun was a little surprised.
After an hour's journey, the big ship docked quietly. Jiang Xiaoer invited everyone out, and bowed to them: "Everyone, Jiang, Meng Lang, is here to accompany everyone. Our Nie Shui Wu is a famous and kind family." , everyone, don’t spread bad names, otherwise Jiang won’t like it..."
Seeing his serious face and threatening everyone before leaving, Qin Kun couldn't bear it anymore.
"roll!"
He kicked Jiang Xiaoer like a gourd, and Qin Kun and his party got off the boat.
At the bow of the boat, no one dared to help Jiang Xiaoer up for a long time. After Qin Kun and his party walked away, a round-headed little devil came over and helped him: "Boss, boss, why are this Yang people so fierce? Even our evil Don't even give Shuiwu face?"
Jiang Xiaoer rubbed his butt and spit out thick phlegm: "Huh, this is a ghost catcher from Maoshan, who should I give face to?"
The little ghost stuck out his tongue, he was not there when he went ashore to greet the guests, so he didn't know who Qin Kun was.It is clear now.
"Then... Now that you know it's the ghost catcher of the Maoshan Ci, why are you threatening those Yang people..."
Jiang Xiaoer said proudly: "Don't look at them being taken care of by Master Qin, but when Master Qin is not around, they must still be afraid. I just want to remind them that Yin people do things, and Yang people can't discuss them. When the time comes Those people don’t talk nonsense.”
The little ghost nodded ignorantly. Although he didn't understand the effect of doing so, the reason why the boss is the boss must be more thoughtful than himself.
……
Along the river, there is a city.
Dark clouds covered the top at night, and several hotels on the outskirts of the city were brightly lit.
Ever since they set foot within the scope of this city, everyone felt a chill in their bodies.
"Qin Kun... where are we?"
"Do you want to stay here tonight?"
"Hiss... look at the map on your phone!"
Xu Yang exclaimed, and everyone turned on the phone map.
The location - Fengdu ghost town.
The 2000-year-old ancient city stood by the Yangtze River, and it was called Bazibiedu in ancient times. Tu Xuanxuan held her mobile phone with an unbelievable expression on her face.
"How could it be here? Impossible! I have traveled here before, Fengdu ghost town is not like this!"
The female anchor of ghost stories, Tu Xuanxuan, has been to this place for a long time.
This ghost town built on the mountain is full of more than 2000 years of ghost culture and is a tourist attraction. But in Tu Xuanxuan's impression, Fengdu Ghost Town is definitely not what it looks like in front of it.
The ghost town in front of me was bigger than I had imagined, and it was empty. Although it was built against the mountains, those wide avenues were enough for running an army. How could it be like this?
Qin Kun kept silent and continued to move forward.
Since this group of people wanted to see something they hadn't seen before, Qin Kun simply let them see it. This is the Yangjian site of Fengdu Ghost City. Judging from Chu Qianxun's information, it is well governed and no dangerous things will happen. .
"Don't look, let's go, book a room first."
Qin Kun saw several hotels with lights in the distance and greeted them.
'Taozhi Hotel' is a small three-story building with exposed aging wires. It is quite rare for such a dilapidated but standing hotel to appear next to a scenic spot.
In the hall is a statue, a little devil's brains were shot out by a copper hammer, and his death was miserable, making people extremely uncomfortable to watch.
There was only one boy in gray clothes dozing off in the hotel. He moved his nose, sniffed the air, and looked at Qin Kun and his group in surprise.
"You... stay in the shop?"
"That's right! Is there a room?" Wu Senran stepped forward, and slapped a stack of soft sister coins on the table, "I'm exhausted after a long day of driving, I want the best room!"
The boy in gray looked at Dr. Shen and Du Qinghan with a half-smile, and finally his eyes rested on Qin Kun.
Suddenly, the sluggish and tired face was put away, he stood up straight, bowed slightly and said: "So that's how it is. We are all guests from afar, please come inside, tonight...no money will be charged!"
what?
Wu Senran was stunned.
It was hard for me to be generous once, but the other party didn't take money?
"Are you kidding?" Wu Senran asked suspiciously.
"Do I look like someone who likes to joke?" The boy in gray put away his smiling face, and Wu Senran suddenly felt inexplicably flustered.
