In the circle sprinkled by Ye haoxuan, these dead leaf snakes did not go further. They piled up and rolled around in the circle. The scene seemed a little scary.
"What is this?" Nine younger sister looked at the little bottle in yehaoxuan's hand in surprise. You know, these dead leaf snakes are almost invincible in this area. They ignore any snake repellent powder, but yehaoxuan spilled some at random, and they dare not move forward. What's the reason?
"This is my homemade snake killing powder." Yehaoxuan said with a smile, "this is somewhat different from the snake killing powder you have here. Most of the snake killing powder you have here depends on the smell, but I don't rely on the smell, but on the lethality."
"Can this kill the snake?" Nine younger sisters obviously don't believe it.
"Of course." Yehaoxuan opened the bottle cap and sprinkled it on a dead leaf snake who was lucky enough to run up to him. As the powder touched the snake, the snake's body immediately twisted violently, and it emitted bursts of blue smoke. Within five seconds, the snake turned over and did not move on the ground. The place where the powder was sprinkled on it seemed to be corroded by strong acid.
"That's great." Nine younger sisters looked at the bottle in yehaoxuan's hand curiously and said, "can this hurt people?"
"No, it's only effective for snakes. If you encounter a powerful snake, it will be a dead end." Yehaoxuan smiled.
"There must be something wrong with the village." Nine younger sister looked at the snakes twisted in the middle of the white powder. She said with some worry: "it seems that this plague is just the beginning. We have had good weather for too long, so something will happen now."
"When you are quiet, you will move. This has been the same rule for thousands of years. I'm afraid things in the village are still troublesome." Yehaoxuan looked at the twisted dead leaf snake on the ground. He sighed.
At this time, a chill came from the depths of the bamboo forest, and then a faint shadow flashed in the bamboo forest and disappeared quickly.
"Who?" Yehaoxuan drank, stepped out, turned into a remnant shadow, and quickly swept away to the place where the shadow was. Almost instantly, he reached the place where the shadow had just disappeared.
But the bamboo leaves of this place went with the wind, but it was quiet all around. There was no human shadow.
Yehaoxuan's perceptive power sent out in all directions. There was peace around him. There were no living creatures at all.
"Well, anybody?" Nine younger sisters ran over with ye haoxuan.
"No one." Yehaoxuan looked around, "but I don't think it's too quiet here."
"There..." nine younger sister suddenly pointed to a dense group of children, and saw two people hanging on the bamboo. From their clothes, they were a man and a woman.
Yehaoxuan pointed to the bamboo with his right hand. A touch of Qi swept across the bamboo. He counted the sounds. Two people hanging on the bamboo fell to the ground.
Their clothes were not in order. Obviously, they were the same as lichunyu's two companions. They had the same smile of passion on their faces. They were not aware of the danger.
"Not long after he died, his temperature was still there." Yehaoxuan stretched out his hand to explore the two men. The time of their death should not exceed half an hour.
"It's them..." nine younger sister looked at the two bodies in surprise and couldn't speak for a moment.
"Are you lost in your village?" Yehaoxuan glances at nine younger sisters.
"Yes... The woman is a widow, and the man is also a bachelor. His wife died a few years ago. How can they do this?" Nine younger sister seems to be unable to accept the current situation.
"It's normal for single men and women to be together. Why don't they just be together and have to sneak around here?" Yehaoxuan was puzzled by the customs here. It seemed that even the Miao people did not have the rule that if they died, they could not get married.
"We can't get married in this place." Nine younger sister shook her head with a complicated look and said, "if you die, you will die. You can't get married again. Otherwise, it will cause the mountain god to be angry."
"Your so-called mountain gods are in charge of too much." "I don't think it's inappropriate for single men and women to be together," yehaoxuan said in some silence
He paused and said, "do you think this is the punishment of the mountain god?"
"Yes, absolutely. This is the punishment of the mountain god for them. Recently, too many such things have happened. Before you came, a pair of men and women like them were dragged into a pig cage." Nine younger sisters said.
"As for such cruelty?" Yehaoxuan shook his head in silence.
"Because if they do this, it will affect the whole village." Nine younger sister said eagerly, "it's true. Why don't you believe it? The plague in our village and their death have explained something."
"They died of insects." Yehaoxuan took out the silver needle and stabbed them. The color of the silver needle slowly blackened. He stood up and raised the silver needle in his hand and said, "you know better than me that this situation belongs to Gu poison."
"It's Gu......" nine younger sister took the gold needle in yehaoxuan's hand. She said in some doubt: "wasn't it made by the mountain god?"
"Absolutely not." Yehaoxuan said definitely, "if there were a mountain god, he would never go to great trouble to poison your villagers. He would directly let them die."
"Is it grandma Xu? No way, it can't be her." Nine younger sisters still don't believe it.
"Take me to her place to have a look. In any case, this matter must be made clear." Yehaoxuan said, "plague and poison need to be found out. Otherwise, your village will never have peace."
"She doesn't see outsiders, especially you. She's not one of our people, and she won't see you." Nine younger sister shook her head.
"That's OK. Anyway, I'm just a passer-by. If I don't find out about the plague and poison, the death will continue." Yehaoxuan shook his head helplessly.
"This..." nine younger sister hesitated. She bowed her head and thought for a long time. Then she made up her mind. She nodded and said, "I'll call the patriarch first and deal with these two people's affairs."
The dinner party was almost over. Many people went back after drinking too much. The medical team, which had been left out for most of the night, had already gone to sleep. They were left out in the cold this time. I'm afraid they won't come to such a place in the future.
The village head and a dozen villagers came over with torches in their hands. When they saw their bodies, they all kept silent.
"Patriarch, they have made the mountain god unhappy by doing such things." A villager noticed that the patriarch's face was not very good-looking, and reminded him aside.
Because this small mountain village has the rules here. People who have an affair like this will be immersed in pig cages. If they don't die, it means it's their luck. If they die, it means they have made the mountain god unhappy. The rules of this village have existed for hundreds of years. In these hundreds of years, dozens of private meetings of single men and women have been immersed in pig cages.
None of these people can survive a stick of incense and get ashore alive. In fact, some people know that this is a bad habit. But because of the tradition in the village, most people choose to be silent.
"Bury them." The patriarch waved, "it's buried here."
"Patriarch, their bodies can't be buried here. They died of the wrath of the mountain god." A villager said.
"Do you really believe that there is a mountain god in this world?" The patriarch suddenly turned around with a trace of anger on his face: "just like when the plague appeared, I asked to report to the government very early and ask the government to send people to rescue me, but who supported me? You would rather believe that the witch can use her magic power to inspire the great witch than modern medical means."
"If a doctor had come earlier, we wouldn't have killed so many people here. If you weren't so stupid, your family wouldn't have suffered so many days. What kind of God? What kind of Mountain God? Shit."
The patriarch became more and more excited when he said: "if a man dies his wife, he will be single for a lifetime. If a woman dies her husband, he will be widowed for a lifetime... Whose rule is this?"
Pointing to the two people lying on the ground, he shouted: "they can be together openly, but it is because of the bad habits handed down for hundreds of years that they come out secretly..."
"Patriarch... It's wrong for them to do so. They can't get married when their spouse dies." The talking villager was obviously brainwashed by the village tradition, he said excitedly.
"Why not get married?" Yehaoxuan took over his topic and said, "when did your customs come from? I walked in your village today. I think your village used to be a big village."
"Yes, the largest stockade in Western Hunan." The patriarch looked a little lonely.
"But why aren't there as many people in your stockade as in other stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stockaded stock
"Young people don't want to come back when they go out. Because they have adapted to modern life, there will be fewer and fewer people in your village." Ye haoxuan said, "what is the reason? The reason is that you are feudal autistic."
"But this tradition..." someone argued.
"Does your tradition allow you to believe in medicine other than Miao medicine?" Yehaoxuan glanced at the villager
"No... No." The villager stammered: "we are sick here. We have to ask the witch to communicate with the witch, or to sacrifice our great witch, to give a confession to the mountain god and ask him to bless us."
