"Little boy, don't be too happy yet!"
"Let's not talk about whether you can find the ruins of Twelve Cave, even if you find what you want."
"It may not be possible to undo this seemingly minor corpse-sealing technique of the Seven Sons!"
I actually understand what Granny Ka means.
She wanted to tell me that although the evil method of sealing corpses by the Seven Sons belongs to the barbaric system.
Later generations of emperors, generals and ministers also wanted to use barbaric techniques to achieve immortality and ascend to immortality.
But they didn't really come into contact with barbarism. Instead, they changed the original meaning of barbarism after learning a little bit about it.
Because of the historical gap in the middle, the method of sealing the corpse of the Seven Sons is actually more of a relatively complicated evil technique.
You must know that the Taoist in Qingyi was originally a Taoist priest. As for where he got the secret of the Twelve Cave, we don't know.
It can be said that Taoism and Twelve Cave are completely different existences. The evil curse formed by combining the two cannot be solved by Twelve Cave alone.
This is similar to those in Jin Yong's novels who combine the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought to create a unique martial arts. If outsiders want to break the move, they can only be more powerful than the person who created the martial arts.
But one thing is 100% certain, and I also got verification from Granny Ka.
That is, if we can really find Feng and Huang and use their blood to exchange them, once we succeed, all the curses and evil spells will naturally be defeated without any attack.
Although I know this is impossible, but as Grandma Ka said, there are no absolutes in everything in the world.
If the characters in ancient mythology did not really exist, who made them up?
It also convinced everyone in later generations, perhaps they exaggerated and beautified it.
But as the saying goes, there must be this person in the first place, so there are these stories.
These Yi techniques came first, and then these myths came into existence.
Otherwise, where would Hetu Luoshu, Fuxi Bagua and Zhouyi Fengshui come from?
Of course, I don't really expect to be lucky enough to encounter another ancient tomb. It just so happens that there is a blood pool in the ancient tomb, and the blood in the blood pool happens to be phoenix blood. I can soak it in and everything will be fine.
I think this kind of coincidence is much lower than a meteorite hitting the head.
Excluding these, there was only one way left in front of me, which was to enter Shiwanda Mountain and find traces of the existence of Twelve Cave.
In order to search for the twelve tombs under the legendary Twelve Cave, and get the clues we want, we can continue to search, or die while searching.
Either learn the truth and completely break the mystery of the curse that has enveloped us for three generations, and possibly even countless generations to come.
I expressed my thoughts and understanding to Granny Ka.
Granny Ka didn't mean to laugh at me this time, but nodded frequently with a look of relief.
He kept saying: "Okay, okay!"
"Baby, you are not simple. I am optimistic about you, old woman. What about you, old guys?"
The people of Sanmiao Village, who only had their heads closed and their eyes closed, suddenly opened their eyes at this moment.
"Watch it!"
If it weren't for the mental preparation just now, I would even suspect that Sanmiao Village is fully capable of creating a altar of soldiers, gods and monsters with their uniform movements and expressions.
But again, I was a little scared because they were so weird.
After all, I was listening to a story just now, and I can accept no matter how bizarre the story is.
But when something is clearly placed in front of you, it still takes some time to mentally prepare.
I smiled awkwardly as I looked at each of them, the San Miao people whom I didn’t know but didn’t dislike.
"Well, mother-in-law, can you tell me what happened to them?"
"Also, whether my seventh uncle is dead or alive, can he still appear in front of me like a normal person?"
Granny Ka looked at the people in the tank with a slightly complicated expression on her face.
Finally, he said: "It's rare that you still have some filial piety. This strange altar method was brought back by the old poisonous man. It is indeed useful, but it has no follow-up."
"This is one of the reasons why I am willing to tell you so much and also agree with you to enter Shiwanda Mountain to dig the graves of our ancestors."
ah?
I didn't expect these words from Granny Ka at all.
Grandma Ka chuckled when she heard my voice.
"Little baby, you have to know that there is no such thing as wasted work in this world. I don't know how the people in your city view this matter."
"But old lady, I feel the same as Ming Jing...!"
Although it's a bit hard for me to accept, I can actually understand it.
This is human nature!
As long as we are human, there is no selfless existence in the true sense.
Even those creatures and beasts are cunning and not cunning, let alone the people at the top of the food chain?
It will only become more serious, even for those who are so-called eating fast and chanting Buddha's name, their emotions and six desires far exceed those of normal people.
It can even be said that they are completely sick. They are all big-bodied, round-waisted, fat-headed and big-eared. Who dares to say that his four elements are empty and his six roots are pure?
"Mother-in-law, what you taught me is that I am indeed a bit fanciful, but I am very grateful for your teaching. I have benefited a lot."
I said this from the bottom of my heart, and I didn't mean to flatter you at all.
There are some things that you need to understand on your own, but there are some things that you will understand with just a little guidance from others.
On this night when the Tengu crossed the Tianhe River, Granny Ka and I had a night-long chat.
I also learned a lot about many matters in Twelve Cave and Raojiang. Things that I didn’t understand before and that were unclear were all explained clearly from Granny Ka.
As for the people of the San Miao tribe, the reason why they are like this has something to do with themselves.
Because learning this kind of secret technique that is not passed down will cause backlash in itself. Five shortcomings and three shortcomings are all trivial matters.
More seriously, it will affect the next generation, just like the curse on me.
Secondly, I also want to make up for my own shortcomings through the method of strange altar.
Because they themselves are the owners of secret skills, they can make up for their shortcomings in other ways, thus becoming a healthy person with secret skills.
But this world is not perfect. If you want to have this or that, God will not allow it.
As for the reason why the old man with ghost hands didn't say anything further, it seemed that he didn't actually know what he would become.
But one thing is, at least staying in this big vat, soaking like pickles will not lead to true death.
I asked Granny Ka if she wasn't suffering this way. She was tortured both physically and mentally like in purgatory.
But Granny Ka smiled.
This time the smile was so calm.
She said: "Human life itself is a purgatory?"
"Everyone pursues different things. It's not time to die yet. Even if we are going to die now, the King of Hell may not dare to accept it."
"Old guys, am I right...?"
"right!"
"Yep!"
This time, the three Miao people in the big tanks said it in unison again.
And he said it three times in a row, and even after the last one, I saw the head of the dead-looking old man with ghost hands shaking twice.
There was even a strange smile on the corner of its mouth, and the smile looked so weird on its face.
But this kind of momentum moved me.
Looking at Granny Ka sitting in front of me again, something seemed to be ignited in my heart.
That is a trend!
I didn't understand this kind of momentum before because I couldn't see it or touch it.
But today I think I get it!
Just as Grandma Ka said, human life is a purgatory, and the world is hell.
Everyone has different pursuits, different ideas, and different things they want.
In order to lift the curse on my body, I was not afraid of hardships, traveled across mountains and rivers, and traveled thousands of miles to come here to find an uncertain answer. This is pursuit and living.
Granny Ka and the others did not want to leave Sanmiao Village, where they had been waiting for their ancestors for generations, just because they were physically handicapped to varying degrees and did not want to go out and see the cold eyes from outside.
They chose to use the method of strange altar to make up for their own shortcomings. This is pursuit, and of course it is also life!
Everyone's lifestyle is different, and their requirements are naturally different.
"Mother-in-law, thank you!"
I stood up and bowed to Granny Ka, who was sitting just like the old monk before me. The big yellow dog next to me was snoring next to the bonfire.
The flames of the bonfire also gradually extinguished, leaving only sporadic firelights still making thunderous sounds among the firewood.
I got up and walked out of the cave, and saw Leng Yue sitting on the big rock next to the cave with her eyes closed and meditating.
I also saw Li Dabao sleeping soundly on the grass nearby.
Looking in the direction of Sanmiao Village, I couldn't see anything.
And looking at the watch on my wrist, I saw that it was almost dawn.
I suddenly remembered a sentence said by someone I don’t know, and it just matched this scene.
The night before dawn is the darkest...!
