The panic on his face made me stop.
The mind that was previously overwhelmed by sadness cooled down instantly.
Grandma was walking strangely, her whole body was covered with snow and frost, there must be something weird about her.
The blind grandpa was right, grandma couldn't be touched blindly, but I couldn't bear to watch her lying on the river beach.
For a moment, I was in a dilemma, not knowing what to do.
"Blind grandpa, what happened to my grandma?" I kept crying and felt like the sky was falling.
The blind grandfather sighed again and again, his gray and turbid eyes wandering towards Grandma.
Even though he couldn't see, he could pinpoint Grandma's position accurately.
I have long been accustomed to strange things, but I can't help but wonder, is he really blind or pretending to be blind?
The blind grandfather was silent for a moment: "Someone put something on your grandma..."
This is why he stopped me, this evil thing is still in grandma's body!
What exactly? Even the blind grandpa couldn’t be sure.
He asked me to pick up a branch, lift up my grandma's left sleeve, and look at the skin on her wrist.
"Be careful, don't touch her skin!"
I immediately followed the instructions and carefully put the branch into grandma's cuff.
As soon as I lifted it up, I gasped!
There was a thin black line running across Grandma's wrist, which looked a bit like a black rubber band at first glance.
Near the fine lines, a small bulge bulged up and moved along the fine lines.
Her body was frozen, except for the fine lines, which was normal skin, and there was a small bulge underneath. The problem must be here!
I told the blind grandpa what I saw, and he said with an angry look on his face: "It's true."
"Blind Grandpa, what on earth is this?"
The blind grandpa said: "I wasn't sure at first, it was just a guess... I didn't expect that there really is such a Gu!"
He said that what killed my grandma was probably a kind of poison called ice silkworm.
It is very similar to the Golden Silkworm Gu, but it is more difficult to refine and has been lost for a long time.
In his early years, he once heard a grass hag say that this ice silkworm Gu is very powerful. No matter how advanced the Taoist person is, as long as he touches the Gu insect, he will be frozen into ice in an instant and his whole body will be covered with hoarfrost.
Grass hags are Gu hags, which are very common in our local area.
The village I live in is an ancient village where Miao and Han people live together. There are many ethnic minority villages around it. Almost every village has a grass ghost woman.
I know most of these people, and I also know that they can't touch grandma.
Who did it?
I was anxious and angry, the blood all over my body was boiling, and my fingertips were extremely numb.
The blind grandpa said that he would investigate this matter.
There are only one or two masters who can practice ice silkworm Gu in the entire southwest region.
When he said this, he must have had a suspicion in his mind.
I cried and asked him who they were? But the blind grandpa refused to tell me, saying that this was not someone I, a child, could see.
The most urgent task is to find a way to force out the poisonous insects from grandma's body and let her rest in peace...
Over the years, I have learned a lot from my grandma.
It's a pity that I never had the chance to use it.
Ever since Guixian had her vaginal bone removed, grandma no longer showed rice or eggs to anyone.
She passed on her housekeeping skills to me, just waiting for me to get over that hurdle, the ghost fairy came out again, and I could inherit my grandma's mantle.
Unexpectedly... the first time I dealt with something in my life was for my grandma!
I stood there, my grandma's voice and smile constantly flashing through my mind. When I thought of the stories she usually told me, she mentioned what a poison was and how to undo it.
Many people must have heard of the so-called Gu.
Many novels, movies, and forums describe it as magical, sinister and terrifying.
Grandma is not too fancy. She puts it in a simple and easy-to-understand way. Gu is a kind of witchcraft that harms others and oneself.
Some grass hags will make voodoo medicine and cultivate voodoo insects to harm people, and as people who release voodoos, grass hags will also be implicated.
Every once in a while, the grass hag must go out to release the poison, otherwise the body will suffer backlash.
They can cast poison in the fields, by the water, or even when they pass by.
This kind of voodoo is usually not very powerful, and you will only be sick for a few days at most.
They also have rules and will not kill people for no reason.
If you want to get rid of the poison, you have to find the person who planted the poison and ask her to take back the poison.
If you can't find it, you need to correspond to the reaction of the poison and first determine what kind of poison it is. Different poisons have different solutions.
For example, earthworm voodoo is made by drying earthworms and grinding them into powder, then enshrining them in front of the statue of the plague god, and then they become voodoo.
If you are infected by earthworms, you can find a knowledgeable master to draw talisman, drink a bowl of talisman vinegar, and slowly remove the worms from your stomach.
Another example is fish voodoo, which is a kind of voodoo inflicted on people by tying human hair to fish and putting them into rivers, using the fish as a carrier.
The fish's poison won't be lifted until another person touches the fish.
I can talk about the voodoo all day and all night. At this moment, I have no mind to think about anything else. All I can think about is the ice silkworm voodoo.
Grandma said that the early stage of refining Ice Silkworm Gu is the same as that of Golden Silkworm Gu.
Dozens of poisonous species such as poisonous snakes, centipedes, and toads were placed in jars, sealed, and allowed to kill each other.
Finally, there was only one left, which became shaped like a silkworm and had golden skin. It was the golden silkworm.
The ice silkworm Gu is based on this. The golden silkworm is frozen in a high-altitude, snow-covered snow mountain all year round. It is cultivated with the secret method. When the golden silkworm sheds its shell, becomes white all over, breaks through the ice, and the ice silkworm becomes !
Golden Silkworm Gu is difficult to refine, let alone going to the snowy mountains to practice, so the refining rate of Ice Silkworm Gu is almost zero.
If grandma hadn't been covered in frost and lying on the ground coldly, I wouldn't have believed that there really was ice silkworm Gu in this world!
"If it's ice silkworm Gu, it'll be troublesome... No one can touch her. We have to find a way to force the insect out." The blind grandfather said.
How could it be so easy to force out the ice silkworm Gu?
Ice silkworm Gu is spiritual and extremely cold, so ordinary methods have no effect on it.
I was so anxious that I thought, "To untie the bell, you have to tie the bell, and you have to find the person who cast the poison."
The blind grandfather nodded in agreement, but frowned: "It's not that easy! Since she dares to kill people, we are sure that we can't find her."
I don't believe in evil, so I went back to look for rice on the spot, hoping to find the person who had caused the poison.
I lit incense and candles, and burned a few pieces of paper money for my grandma's troops. I took out a piece of underwear she had worn, covered the entire mouth of the bowl full of rice, and chanted the mantra for finding people.
"Thousands of troops and horses, searching in all directions, receiving orders quickly, leaving the darkness and entering the underworld..."
This is a spell to invite soldiers. Usually after soldiers and horses receive money and go out after being ordered, what they see and find will appear in the rice.
After reciting the mantra, I turned the rice bowl over and put it away again.
When I opened my grandma's clothes, an irregular pile of rice appeared in front of me.
In the eyes of outsiders, this is just a bowl of white rice, nothing special.
It's completely different when you come here...
