Chapter 521: The Grass Ghost
It was already past four o'clock when I returned to the hotel. I suddenly felt very excited when I lay on the bed and couldn't sleep. But when I thought of the dead girl, I felt a pain in my heart. I was so excited. I went to bed!
When we woke up in the morning, we went out to eat something simple, we packed our equipment, and set off again. Since An Zerong said that this mysterious woman brought him to Xiangxi, another woman asked another woman, which means that her nest was in Xiangxi. So we decided to go to the origin of the corpse to break through. Even if we couldn’t find the dead girl, we would always find the mysterious woman’s nest, so we would not have to worry about the whereabouts of the dead girl!
Dazuirong has been to Xiangxi several times. On the way, he told us about the customs and customs there, the origin of the corpse and the mystery of the Gu Niang. There is nothing to say about corpse driving, because everyone has heard too much about this, while the Miao Gu Niang is a very mysterious profession. Because Gu Niang raised Gu Niang not only to harm people, but can also be used to save people and cure diseases. This kid told us that Gu Niang is very beautiful, and it is said that it was because of raising Gu Niang that his appearance changed.
I thought to myself that this kid was actually making Chen Hanyan happy. If raising a gu can make a woman beautiful, then what kind of plastic surgery will be done? I went to Xiangxi to become a disciple. After learning this craft, I can also prevent wolves and cure diseases, killing three birds with one stone.
Xiao Ying was listening to Dazuirong's bragging, and her expression seemed particularly fascinated. I asked her if she wanted to learn to raise a Gu, but she turned her face away and looked out the window. This girl is always unpredictable, and she will know what she is thinking unless she uses Tongxincao.
Of course, Xiao Lu Dao didn't believe in Big Mouth Rong's style, and he kept holding a gamble with him. But now, unlike in the past, when Big Mouth Rong was embarrassed, Chen Hanyan immediately put on the battlefield. Although this girl was not very sharp, she spoke very ruthlessly and dared to say anything. Sometimes the little Lu Dao's face turned red and she didn't dare to take action.
So on the train to Xiangxi, Xiao Hoodie shut up for half the way. I was very worried, would this kid be so suffocated?
We got off the train when we entered the western border of Hunan, because according to the route An Zerong mentioned, it was at the junction of Sichuan and Hunan, and this area was also very familiar with Dazuirong. Daba Mountain is not far from here, and he often walked around, and basically he had traveled all over this area. But he had never been to many barren mountains. I heard some old people say that there are many evil things in the Paomayan area, and there is almost an uninhabited area. There is no place for people in the barren mountains within a radius of hundreds of miles. And those who have entered this mountain and entered the hinterland have never seen them come back!
After talking for a long time, Dazuirong corrected us again. Those old people were talking about the events of the Republic of China. As for now, they didn’t know what the situation was. We almost fainted. You bastard, what did you say about the events of the Republic of China? If you want to say that at that time, there were bandits everywhere in the mountains, how could there be not many evil things?
Dazuirong took us to a small town called "Jiaolong Town". This place is very quiet, with mountains behind and water in front. Most of the buildings in the town were built in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. It is a rustic and ancient color, which makes people like it indescribable. Dazuirong felt depressed because the little fish went crazy and lived here for a while, so he was very familiar with it. When he came here, he asked about the local elderly people and could get some clues.
He led us into a stilt house where an old Miao lady lived. She was in her 90s and was not deaf in her ears or eyes, and she looked very energetic. The old lady had no children and lived alone. At that time, Dazurong lived here, and the old lady treated him like a grandson, allowing him to spend a warm day full of family affection.
When the old lady saw Dazui coming with her friends, her wrinkled face was filled with joy, and she brewed tea and served fruits for us. She was very enthusiastic. The old lady’s surname was Meng, and she didn’t know what her name was Dazuirong, so we followed him to call her Grandma Meng. The old lady especially liked Xiao Ying and Chen Hanyan. Chen Hanyan had no relatives since she was a child. She pestered the old lady and grandma and called her very affectionately, which made the old lady very happy.
When we asked if there were any strange rumors in the surrounding area, the old lady frowned and said that in the deep mountains more than 30 miles east of the Jiaolong Town, there is the Paoma Rock. It is said that there are many "caopo ghosts" living in seclusion. This name is quite new. We have encountered many ghosts and have never encountered Caopo ghosts before. What kind of breed is this?
The old lady told us in detail that there are three wonders in Xiangxi, and those three wonders: driving corpses, putting a Gu, and falling flower girl. Needless to say, we know about putting a Gu, but Dazui Rong didn't know much, and some of them were nonsense to make Chen Hanyan happy. Putting a Gu in Xiangxi is an ancient black witchcraft. Listening to black witchcraft, listening to it, black witchcraft, it sounds creepy. Raising a Gu is to put a variety of poisonous insects together and let them kill each other. The last poisonous insect left is the king of poisonous insects, and that is Gu!
Gu is commonly known as "caopo" in Xiangxi. Because Gu is only attached to women, there is only Gu Niang in Xiangxi, and there is no Gu Dad. Haha, the word Gu Dad was taken by a buddy, and there was no one. Gu Niang let the Gu kill people invisibly and was frightened as a ghost, so she had the nickname of Cao Po Gui.
After listening to the old lady's story, we realized that Cao Po Gui was not a ghost, but a name for Gu Niang. The guy couldn't help but think of the mysterious woman coming and going like lightning, which was quite consistent with the strange name of Cao Po Gui. But I had never seen this woman use Gu Niang, so it is hard to say whether she is Gu Niang.
The old lady told us again that it is said that if the release of a Gu harms a person, it will protect himself from illness for three years. If he harms a cow, he can protect him for one year, and a tree can only protect him for three months. If he only raises him but does not release him, it will backfire him. If he refuses to release a Gu within three years, the Grass Po Gui will suffer the consequences and be killed by the Gu he raised. The Gu also has a nemesis, that is, dogs. Among all animals, only dogs cannot be used, so the Gu Niang never eats dog meat even if he is afraid of dogs.
The old lady said so clearly that we understood as soon as we heard it. Chen Hanyan and Xiao Roddler began to complain about Dazui Rong. Many of them didn't understand were made up by themselves, and it was not the case at all. The old lady stopped after she said that, but Chen Hanyan and Xiao Ying were very interested in the fallen flower girl. This name sounded nice, so she asked the old lady the origin of the fallen flower girl.
