"Right now, go to Leijiazhuang in Xilin City next door. There are drought demons there. Go there and have a look. If you can solve it, solve it. If you can't solve it, just wait for me there. I will go there soon."
Drought?
I was slightly startled, there was a drought demon actually appearing in that place!
As the saying goes, "Hanba is born, and this place is thousands of miles away."
Every time the drought demon appears, it will bring huge disasters to the world.
Drought demon is a legendary monster that can cause drought. It is a zombie that turns into a zombie within a hundred days after death. If the body does not rot after death, the tomb is damp and water seeps, and there is a drought and no rain within a hundred miles, this is the occurrence of drought demon.
It is a sign. It will only rain after burning the bodies of drought demons. The custom of burning drought demons in the villages of Shandong and Henan is called "driving bone piles", and the custom of burning drought demons in villages in central Shandong continued to the Second World War.
The 1960s.
In Shandong, whenever there was a drought in the past, it was a very common custom to treat newly buried corpses as drought demons. I heard that I have already said such a thing. In a certain year in the Qing Dynasty, there was a long drought in Gaomi, and someone was found to have died of illness early in the year.
The soil in Li Xiande's grave was damp, so they spread the rumor that Li turned into a Han Ba after his death. The people in each village dug up the grave and opened the coffin, regardless of the Li family's obstruction. When they saw that Li's body had not yet rotted, they were even more convinced that Li was a Han Ba, so they burned Li's body without explanation.
The family brought the gravedigger to court. This case was unprecedented. In the end, the leader of the Ministry of Punishment, Zhong Er, was convicted of "preparing to be hanged in prison" based on the law of "opening the tomb, opening the coffin and revealing the corpse", which is equivalent to the modern
The case was settled with a reprieve of death.
In ancient China, children's urine and black dog's blood were mainly used to deal with drought demons. Children's urine and black dog's blood were also the main items used in ancient times to subdue demons and ward off evil spirits.
Whenever there was a drought during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, people would excavate new burial mounds, drag out the corpses, and mutilate their limbs, which is called "drought bone pile driving." Although the Ming Dynasty ordered to ban this practice, until the Qing Dynasty, this practice was still popular among the people.
It is still very popular, and has evolved from "drying bone piles" to burning corpses.
This custom is also seen in foreign countries. For example, farmers in some areas of Russia often dig up the corpses of drunken victims and sink them into the nearest swamp or lake once they encounter a drought. They even mutilate their limbs to
Come here to ask for rain.
There is also a very ancient myth and legend about the Drought Demon.
During the Battle of Zhulu, Chi You prepared for a long time, made a large number of weapons, gathered many elves, and attacked Huangdi. Huangdi sent Yinglong to the wilds of Jizhou to fight against him. Yinglong was a flying dragon with wings, and launched a huge flood to besiege Chiyou.
Chi You invited Feng Bo, Yu Master, and Ying Long's army to get lost in the wind and rain. Huang Di heard that there was a God of Thunder in Leize, with a human head and a dragon's body. The God of Thunder's mount Kui Niu often slapped his belly, which could
With a thunderous sound that shook the earth, he killed the innocent Kui Niu and used his skin to make a big drum and beat it, breaking the miserable wind and rain in Chiyou. Huangdi also sent the goddess Ba to join the battle. Bao was dressed in green clothes and could emit extremely strong light and
Re. She came to the front of the battle and exerted her magical power. The wind, rain and fog immediately dissipated, and the Yellow Emperor finally captured and killed Chi You. Yinglong and Ba established extraordinary honors, but they also lost their magical power and could never return to the sky. What Yinglong left in the world was
South, from now on the south has more water and rain.
But these are all fairy tales after all, and their credibility is not high. It is hard to say whether they are true or not.
Grandpa went on to say, "Now that drought demon has come out to move around. You should go over and have a look. I'm afraid that if it's a little later, people will die in Leijiazhuang."
After understanding the urgency of the matter, I said to Grandpa, "Don't worry, Grandpa, I'll be there right away."
After I finished the call with my grandpa, I quickly put on my clothes and washed my face casually. I didn't even have time to brush my teeth, so I simply brushed my teeth and the problem was solved.
"Dongfang, are you at home?" Just as I was about to go out, Lao Bai's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, and there was a continuous blast of horns.
Lao Bai, why is he here at this time?
With this doubt, I opened the door.
Lao Bai's Audi was parked outside the door, and Lao Bai was standing in front of the car. When he saw me coming out, he immediately came over to greet me.
"Why are you here?" I looked at Lao Bai curiously.
Lao Bai walked up to me with a smile and said, "I don't have anything to do at home today, so I came to see you!"
"I brought you something, just wait a minute and I'll get it for you right away!" As he said that, Lao Bai ran to his car, and I grabbed Lao Bai.
"Stop showing me your stuff, I need your help now!"
Lao Bai came at the perfect time today. Without him, whether I took the train or took the bus to Leijiazhuang, it would have delayed a lot of time.
But now that Lao Bai is here, these are no longer a problem. He can drive me directly to Leijiazhuang next door.
"What's the favor? You just said it!" Lao Bai patted his chest and said, "As long as I can help you, I will help you."
"Time is urgent. I want to go to Leijiazhuang in Xilin City. You can drive me there immediately. You can ask me about the others after they get in the car."
Lao Bai was also unambiguous. When he saw what I said, he drove me off.
Speaking of which, I just went to Xilin City not long ago. That time I went with Meng Shiyu, and it turned out that that time, we experienced a series of things in the ghost village in Xilin City.
Fortunately, I also gained something, and finally got the Yin Yang Taoist robe.
As I watched the car drive on the road, my anxious mood was slightly relieved.
"Dongfang, why are you going to Leijiazhuang?"
After getting in the car, Lao Bai asked about me.
Since he wanted to know, I told him exactly what I was going to do to deal with the drought.
After listening to this, his chest heaved and he looked very uneasy.
"Are the drought demons you counted zombies?" Lao Bai asked me, licking his tongue.
"That's right!"
The reality and imagination of Drought Demon and Zombie, to be precise, Drought Demon is more like a kind of zombie.
Ordinary people may not know that there are actually many types of zombies.
Usually people in the yin and yang industry divide zombies into nine types, namely purple zombies, white zombies, black zombies, green zombies, hairy zombies, flying zombies, wandering zombies, prone zombies, and non-bone zombies.
There is also a saying that zombies can turn into demons and monsters.
In addition, legend has it that there is a kind of corpse called a shadow corpse, which is a transitional form between a corpse and a zombie. If it is not dealt with quickly, it will soon turn into a zombie. Even if the corpse is buried for hundreds of years, it will not decompose, and the corpse's
Hair and nails will continue to grow. Shadow corpses can be found in corpse raising places. Science points out that it is actually due to muscle contraction of the human body after death that the hair and nails originally hidden in the flesh are exposed.
