Zhang Fan also saw the old lady's thoughts and said: "Our interview this time is different from the interviews you have received before."
"Oh..." The old lady nodded numbly and came back to her senses, "Then just follow your ideas, I will cooperate with you."
"Let's put it this way, is there any description of animal blood and garlands in the cultural traditions of the Wa people?"
Zhang Fan added.
“We, the Wa people, believe in the immortality of the soul and the animism of all things.
In our concept, humans, plants, animals, mountains, rivers and all natural phenomena such as wind, rain, thunder and lightning, etc., all have souls, or ghosts and gods. We do not distinguish between ghosts and gods, and they all refer to souls in our concept."
The old lady first made a concluding summary.
Zhang Fan and Fang Yan looked at each other. This is really different from the thoughts of other ethnic groups. At least from the perspective of the Han people, the soul is the soul, the ghost is the ghost, and the god is the god.
"Old lady, what about animal blood?"
Fang Yan, who just wanted to hear the key points, couldn't wait to ask.
"You young man, you are really impatient."
The old lady said, "From the perspective of modern biology, the order of intelligence from high to low is humans, animals, and plants."
The old lady was a top student and a teacher in the village when she was young. She has been keeping up with the times over the years. Therefore, she understands some modern biological knowledge, otherwise she would not be able to speak in such an organized manner.
“Because we, the Wa people, regard plants, mountains and rivers as beings with souls just like people and animals, our wisdom sorting of these things is into the categories of people, animals, plants, rivers, mountains, thunder and lightning, etc. In our hearts,
These four categories represent everything in the world.
From the perspective of the Wa people, blood runs through the whole body, and blood contains all the essence of humans or animals.
Flowers are the most beautiful things among all plants, and the wreaths or other things woven from flowers are the essence of plants.
The two essences that are in the middle of all things in the world are arranged in the way given to us by God Muyiji, and then activated by the gestures and spells given to us by God Muyiji, they can communicate with all things in the world and fulfill the wishes of the supplicant."
Zhang Fan and Fang Yan looked at each other, this was a little weird.
"Can any wish come true?
Is it possible to achieve a wish like getting rich overnight?"
Fang Yan subconsciously answered.
The old lady smiled hoarsely and said, "What are you thinking about? Then the world won't be in chaos!"
"Let me give you two examples to explain.
When my son was ill, I used this method to extend his life twice, but my son only lived for one more year, and I lost one year of life. In a situation like mine, I will follow a
The law of conservation, someone gets something, someone else loses it.
Moreover, extending your life for one year is the limit, so you can’t go against the grain.
The second example also happened to me. When I was starving, a group of us went up the mountain to pick wild fruits. When we got home, I found that the gold bracelet my mother-in-law left for me was lost.
Way to make a wish.
Finally, a tree spirit told me that my bracelet was at its root. I followed its guidance and found my gold bracelet.
I don’t need to pay any price to achieve this wish, because this thing originally belongs to me, and I have not stolen anything from others, nor have I affected other people’s interests.”
The old lady explained.
"Oh...that's it..." Fang Yan looked stunned.
"As you just said, you set up a formation, made gestures, and chanted a spell to make a wish to get rich overnight. Maybe this wish can come true, but if you take something that does not belong to you, the punishment will not be too small. It may be
Being plagued by illness may also affect your longevity. I have never tried this kind of thing, so I don’t know the specific exchange conditions."
The old lady said.
Zhang Fan nodded thoughtfully. Although the Wa people said it was "fulfilling their wish", in reality it was more like an exchange under some kind of conservation.
“Is the way of placing essences fixed?
Or is it a certain type of wish that corresponds to a certain way of displaying it?"
Zhang Fan asked.
“A certain type of wish corresponds to a way of planning, a way of extending life, and a way of finding things.
However, the thing you are looking for cannot be more than ten kilometers away from the array location, otherwise it will not be effective.
There are also some restrictions. The person making the wish must be clear about what they are looking for, otherwise it will be useless.
If you have a pile of gold and the pile of gold is lost, but you don’t know the amount of gold, you still can’t find the gold.”
The old lady continued to explain.
"Is this formation method shared by your Wa people?"
Zhang Fan asked.
"It's shared. We have a book about formations, which records various ways of arranging them."
The old lady said, "Moreover, the knotting gestures and incantations are also clearly recorded under the wishing chart."
"Then don't your tribe's wishes come true every day?"
Fang Yan answered.
"Although there are ways to set up formations, not everyone can activate them. Therefore, among our Wa people, there are very few people who can realize their wishes through formations."
The old lady said.
"There are methods of forming formations, knotting gestures, and spells. Why does this still happen?"
Zhang Fan asked.
"We must reach a state called spiritual communication in order to succeed. Few people from the Wa people have reached the state of spiritual communication. The so-called spiritual communication means that one's soul can communicate with all things in the world."
The old lady said.
Zhang Fan and Fang Yan looked at each other in confusion.
"I can't summarize the specific situation very well. Anyway, I can receive guidance and realize my wishes."
The old lady continued.
Zhang Fan and Fang Yan both fell into silence. After a while, Fang Yan said: "So it seems that some of the three people have the ability to communicate with gods?"
Zhang Fan glanced at Fang Yan, then took out his tablet, looked at the old lady and said, "Old lady, please help me see what kind of wish this can achieve?"
The matter has reached this point, so asking directly will save you worry and effort.
In fact, after hearing what the old lady said, Zhang Fan and Fang Yan also made a preliminary guess about the placement on the mountain behind Muyiji Divine Valley. After all, those people were looking for something, but they had to let the old lady know.
Madam, please confirm.
After looking at it for a while, the old lady said: "This is a hybrid arrangement that can fulfill two wishes. One of the wishes is to find something, and the other is to go directly to the thing you want to find."
"Is there such a magical way to place it?"
Fang Yan said with some surprise.
"kindness."
The old lady nodded.
But the next moment, the old lady's face became serious.
