Looking at the front, Qin Zhibo thought it was a poignant elopement story, like the Great Escape from Africa.
The result is only sadness, no beauty.
Kinoshita was deceived, both body and soul by a priestess who was good at playing with people's hearts.
I just don’t know if this is Kinoshita Tomonori’s own real experience or if it is completely fictional.
However, the Bloody Tongue organization does exist, which adds more credibility to the story.
If this is false, hope it is true.
If this is true, that’s great!
Only then did Kinoshita realize that he had been deceived, but it was too late.
He was tied to a wooden table by the local Nandi people, and no matter how much he begged, it was of no avail.
However, Mwiru did not tattoo his waist, but used special ink to tattoo a tattoo on his body.
On the Black Wind Mountain, people raised their arms and shouted, and began to hold some kind of ceremony.
The terrible carnival ceremony was accompanied by the storm raging on the earth. People danced in the wind and waved their sickles wildly.
During this process, Kinoshita felt that his body was being invaded by something.
Indescribable power traveled throughout his body, and the ancient will that had been born since eternity controlled the thoughts in his brain.
Wandering on the edge of sanity and madness, he saw a palace of chaos, with crazy musicians playing drums and flutes in the void, and the wonderful notes made him gradually understand everything.
When he woke up again, he found that he was still alive.
He was abandoned on a strange street, his luggage was looted, leaving only his weak body.
Unable to speak the language, he could only wander on the streets, with no one willing to help him, a foreigner.
At the same time, Kinoshita discovered all the changes in his body.
His body became pale, there were dark circles under his eyes, and the veins under his skin showed a faint black color.
No matter what the surrounding temperature is, his body will sweat profusely, and there will be a rotten smell all over his body.
This situation made the people around him avoid him even more, probably because they thought he had some kind of fatal infectious disease.
It would be the greatest kindness not to push him into a pit of fire and burn him.
After three days, he finally passed out from hunger and closed his eyes.
But this time Kinoshita once again survived a desperate situation, and it was some Maasai people who rescued him.
A hundred years ago, the Nandi people often used evil rituals to create storms and cholera, which ravaged the land of the Maasai people, so the Maasai people and the Nandi people were feuding.
And this is the street of the Maasai people.
They knew that Kinoshita was sent by the Nandi people, so they had been quietly observing Kinoshita for the past few days.
After confirming that Kinoshita was not a threat, he finally made up his mind to rescue him.
This group of Maasai people were much friendlier than the Nandi people and asked doctors to take care of Kinoshita, but Kinoshita's health never improved.
His body became weaker and weaker, and there was a stronger rotten smell all over his body. No matter how he wiped it, it would not work.
Sometimes, his nosebleeds would flow like black oil, and the memory in his brain would be confused from time to time, and he would always see some inexplicable hallucinations.
Ordinary medical skills could no longer cure Kinoshita, so the Masai people recommended a person for Kinoshita.
Queen of Voodoo - Marie Laveau.
Seeing this, we finally got to the topic that Qin Zhibo wanted to see most.
According to Koizumi Anko, voodoo dolls and resurrected corpses are both characteristics of voodoo.
There is also a voodoo curse that allows the deceased to see Baron Samedi, the god of death, which is also a voodoo spell recorded in "The Secret of the Worm".
There are various indications that these people, including Kinoshita Tomonori, are likely to be related to Voodoo.
The origin of this relationship should be hidden in the following story.
According to the instructions of the Maasai people, the Voodoo Queen lives in Benin, West Africa, which is East Africa.
At this time, the African continent was quite backward. Most countries did not have airports. Railway tracks running through the African continent were even more of a luxury. The only relatively reliable means of transportation was cars.
In this way, two Maasai people took Kinoshita from Kenya in East Africa to Benin in West Africa.
The journey across the African continent is not smooth and cannot be "in a straight line" as imagined.
On the way, we should avoid some disputed areas and extremely poor countries to avoid unnecessary trouble.
In order to cover up the strong rotten smell on his body, Kinoshita used a local African cologne.
However, you can still smell the smell of rotting meat when you are in a small space with Kinoshita, such as in a carriage.
On the way from East Africa to West Africa, I saw some local customs and customs, some of which were quite interesting.
For example, in the southeastern part of Benin, local people believe that people will be reincarnated after death and should be happy.
Therefore, during the funeral, relatives and friends will gather around the coffin of the deceased to dance and celebrate, and let passers-by on the street join the "coffin dancing" queue.
This custom of joy and mourning is widely spread in West Africa and is practiced in many countries.
If I unfortunately die in West Africa, there will probably be people dancing next to my coffin, right? - Kinoshita
After a month, we finally arrived in Benin, West Africa.
Voodoo is the state religion of this country. 60% of the people believe in Voodoo, about 4.5 million people.
From this, Kinoshita guessed that the Voodoo Queen must be aloof and should not be taken lightly by ordinary people.
But something went beyond Kinoshita's expectation. The Queen of Voodoo, the great Marie Laveau, turned out to be a hairdresser in a beauty salon.
Marie Laveau specializes in providing haircut services for wealthy families, including dyeing, perming, washing, cutting and blow-drying.
At the same time, Marie Laveau was also a practicing physician, healer and herbalist, fortune teller, and midwife.
If someone came to Marie Laveau for help with healing or fortune-telling, Marie Laveau would provide it free of charge without asking for anything in return.
Therefore, the locals respectfully call Marie Laveau "Queen", not because she has the rights of a queen, but because she has a benevolent heart, which is equivalent to "angel" or something like that.
It's just that "angel" is a term from other religions, and Voodoo will only call it "queen".
When the Maasai people explained Kinoshita's situation to the Voodoo Queen, Kinoshita was immediately received.
When they met for the first time, Kinoshita was amazed by Marie Laveau's beauty.
Mwiru is as beautiful as the first time we met, but has a more holy and dignified temperament.
Marie Laveau examined Kinoshita's body and concluded that he had undergone some kind of terrible sacrificial ritual, and that his body was used as a carrier container to put into it a terrible and ancient existence.
Now, his body has been contaminated. If blood is not exchanged in time, the body will rot from the inside and he will slowly die in pain.
When that time comes, he will beg others to end his life.
