Chapter 65 Chapter 7 Dongdong Push

Hearing Xu Shaode's shout, I thought to myself, is there really a ghost in Jinzhu Grand Canyon?Looking back, there was really a man with a hideous face standing in the woods behind him, and then posing in various weird poses.At first glance, it really looks like a ghost in a ghost movie, a little exaggerated, and the facial features are extremely cold. The man stood far away, crying and laughing for a while, not knowing what to do.Naturally, I am not afraid of ghosts and gods, nor do I believe that there are ghosts and gods in the world, so I threw down the rabbit meat and rushed up.The man didn't expect that I would chase after him, so he froze in place. When I strode forward, I realized that this was not a human face at all, but a murderous ghost mask made of willow wood .

This person is petite and looks like a woman, but she is quite agile.I did it one after another before I subdued the woman, and then tore off her mask.There is indeed a woman in this deep mountain and old forest, it seems that Xu Shaode is not talking nonsense.However, it's already dark, why is she playing tricks here?I twisted her angrily and walked back to the camp, but the woman didn't cry or make a fuss, quietly waiting for her to be dealt with.This woman has a delicate face and pale blood, but I feel very familiar. Old man Liu took a look at the mask and said, "Nuo opera mask, this is Dongdong Tui!"

"What are you pushing here and there?" I pushed the woman to the ground and made her sit. However, Old Man Liu stopped talking. He looked at the woman I caught in horror and shouted, "Great Immortal, please spare me!" "Hey, hello, please forgive me, what have you done to be sorry for the people of the motherland?" I thought it was funny, this old man Liu was really good at singing, and he would change his style after a while, but as soon as he said the words, he remembered: I know that in Where have I seen this woman before! The woman didn't speak, and she didn't feel unfamiliar. After sitting down, she picked up a rabbit leg and ate it with big mouthfuls.When Xu Shaode saw that she was a beautiful woman, he forgot the fear just now, and immediately ate rabbit meat with this woman, or this woman was eating rabbit meat with Xu Shaode.

Old man Liu was still worshiping this woman, and Albert sat aside with a confused face, not knowing what happened.I really couldn't bear the image of the Chinese being ruined by old man Liu, so I immediately helped him up.This woman was very quiet when she ate rabbit meat, and I thought she couldn't hurt Xu Shaode and the others, so I pulled old man Liu aside and said, "My God, isn't this woman the woman in your two paintings? " "Yeah, I was scared to death, what a ghost." Old man Liu said in horror. "What do you mean, I'm also painting, why the hell, I'm a real person!" I said angrily.

"No, there is one thing I didn't tell you, that is, our old man, there is one more thing I didn't tell you...that is, the woman in the painting, she..." Old man Liu was about to finish his sentence in a hurry, but the woman said in a crisp voice, "You guys don't have time, you have to act fast, we can't let him (her) get ahead." The woman's voice was very ethereal, which sounded weird, but the old man Liu put his mouth close to my ear and said something: "Mr. Cheng said that the woman in the other painting is the same as the fox fairy at that time." look!"

"Ah!" I cried out. Oh my God, the people in the paintings are actually living in reality, and they are characters from thousands of years ago!In fact, I shouldn't be surprised, because I am also the person in the painting, and I have found portraits and statues like myself in several ancient sites.This woman appeared so strangely, suddenly appeared like this, could it be that she has been living in this old forest?However, looking at her clothes, they are all the best sportswear today, branded goods, and she doesn't look like a savage in the mountains. "Hey, who the hell are you and why are you here?" I asked straight away, without beating around the bush.

"Me, hehe." The woman turned her head and smiled, "Just call me Xiaoguang! I've been waiting for you here for a long time, and it's really boring, so I scare you with this Nuo opera mask." It sounds strange to me, how come I feel very familiar with her!However, she said her name is Xiaoguang, and I don't have any classmates, friends, or relatives with this name.I asked her what her last name was, but Xiaoguang refused to say, and then acted innocent.Old man Liu held Xiaoguang's mask and kept muttering about Dongdongtui. He didn't know about it at the time, he didn't mean it, and he didn't know what he wanted to say.

Dongdongtui is a kind of Nuo opera. "Nuo" is an ancient religious ceremony to drive away ghosts and epidemics. It is a primitive cultural phenomenon in China. It originated in prehistoric times, prevailed in Shang and Zhou Dynasties, and has been passed down for thousands of years.King Lanling of the Northern Qi Dynasty was brave and beautiful. He often covered himself with a ghost mask to scare his opponents when he went into battle. It can be seen that Nuo opera masks are not usually scary. The Nuo opera performed by the Dong people in the north of Guizhou and the Guanling area in the southwest is called "Ganuo Opera", also known as "Dongdong Tui", which is a masked opera.Guizhou is deeply influenced by Bashu and Jingchu cultures due to factors such as geographical location, organizational history, and ethnic customs. The introduction of Nuo culture to Guizhou has a relationship with Bashu and Chu cultures.

"Hanshu Geographical Chronicles" said: "Chu people believe in witches and ghosts, and pay attention to prostitution." "Songtaoting Chronicles", a local chronicle written by predecessors, also records: "There are many people who love witches and believe in ghosts. It’s unavoidable, and it’s quite Chu-style.” Therefore, this Nuo opera represents ancient folk culture, but it also reveals a gloomy ghostly atmosphere, and when you see it at night, you can’t help but feel chills in your heart. "Go home tomorrow, you can't be with us, it will be dangerous!" I made an excuse, trying to drive Xiaoguang away.

"I know you are going to Longyi Village, without me, you would never be able to find it!" Xiaoguang's words startled us. Old man Liu may have heard his ancestors embellished the fox fairy woman, so he has been afraid to speak out, and he agrees with whatever Xiaoguang says.At that time, although the superstition campaign had been carried out all over the country for a long time, many elderly people still believed in it. "Brother Wanzang, let Master Hu Immortal go with you, or..." Old Man Liu muttered behind me. "But..." I'm still not at ease, how useful a girl can be, just don't hold her back.

"Don't worry, you do your own thing and don't worry about me." Xiaoguang said sincerely, this attitude made me unable to refuse. I thought about it, and wanted to discuss it with someone, but old man Liu lost his mind, Xu Shaode only saw beautiful women, and Albert couldn't figure it out. I didn't know what happened. I searched around, but there was no one who could discuss it. .Xiaoguang wanted to follow, she must be going for the treasure, and she knew such details, the origin must not be simple.But she is also a character in an ancient painting, maybe she can know something, so after weighing up and down, I compromised. I sighed, sat down, and asked Xiao Guang some questions, which she kept avoiding.However, I always feel that she may have something to do with Yuan Yuanyuan's uncle, who else knew that we would come to Jinzhu Canyon except for that person.A good team lost its cohesion because of Xiaoguang, everyone was thinking about different things. The sky is pitch black, without any starlight. If it rains in winter, it will take a long time in this kind of place, and it will be very inconvenient to move around.I was looking up at the sky thinking, I have to speed up tomorrow, if Xiaoguang walks slowly, we will deliberately get rid of her.She has been wandering in this mountain for a long time, and she will definitely not get lost. If she can't keep up with us, she will naturally go back. I had just finished my wishful thinking when Xu Shaode spat another mouthful of rabbit meat in my face.Damn, this kid is really a waste of food, thanks to my hard work to fight back!Xu Shaode raised his trembling hand, pointed behind me, and said, "How many more... ghosts..." I wanted to look back to see what happened, but who knew that several people appeared behind Xu Shaode, and their faces were also wearing the same Nuo opera masks as Xiaoguang. Those few people were moving in the woods, not fast, just watching us from a distance.We yelled a few times, but those people didn't respond, like deaf people.Old man Liu's face was so frightened that his face was distorted at this moment. Although he was not very courageous, he was not small either. A few Nuo opera masks frightened him into this state, which was completely different from his previous self.I really don't understand why this mask can scare old man Liu so much. Xiaoguang sighed, and that tone sounded like a very bored feeling.I saw that she bowed her index finger and put it on her lips, and a cry like a crane resounded impressively.Those people wearing masks suddenly had hearing, heard Xiao Guang's whistle, and hid in the dark of the forest one after another.Everyone was surprised, why those people listened to Xiaoguang's orders, could it be that she is the queen of the cottage?Before we entered the mountain, we had unified our consciousness. As long as nothing attacked us, we would not provoke them.Now that the people wearing Dongdong's mask have already walked away, there's no need for us to force them into a dead end. We stared at Xiao Guang without saying a word, she ate the rabbit meat very naturally, she didn't care about our surprise at all, and she didn't want to explain.That night, I gave up my sleeping bag to Xiaoguang, and I gathered around the campfire to sleep the night for everyone.In the middle of the night, old man Liu was talking in his sleep, speaking Yunnan dialect.The Yunnan dialect is not much different from the Guangxi dialect, so I can tell that what old man Liu said in his sleep probably means that he didn't mean it, he didn't know that Dongdong pushed this thing, let others not blame him.In the end, old man Liu woke up with a start. I wanted to ask him what he had dreamed in his dream, but old man Liu saw me staring at him, so he pretended to be very sleepy again, fell asleep again, and ignored me. In that year, science had made a qualitative leap, and I heard some research reports on the human subconscious.Academically speaking, people will think of things that they forcibly forget in a certain situation. Since they are forcibly forgotten, of course they are some very bad things.Old man Liu's reaction reminded me of my own experience.If it weren't for Diquanlu, I wouldn't have thought of a child's head and a hazy woman at all.However, the time passed in an instant, and I never had the chance to meet Diquanlu again, and the illusion at that time never appeared in my mind again, and I don't know if it was a pure illusion or a real experience. As I was thinking, I was anxiously holding the bonfire, trying to keep it burning, but when I saw Xiaoguang who was sleeping across the way, my mind was full of thoughts.Xiaoguang is currently the only person who has the same situation as me. We all appear in the ancient relics, and she is so mysterious. Maybe she really knows something that I don't know.I thought, now that everyone is fast asleep, I would take this opportunity to chat with Xiaoguang and see if she could tell me some useful information. Thinking of this, I tiptoed over, held my breath, and gently pushed Xiaoguang.However, she didn't respond.Could it be that Xiaoguang, like Xu Shaode, sleeps like a dead pig?I pushed again, but still no response.As soon as I became impatient, I slapped Xiaoguang's face twice, but when I touched her face, her skin was extremely cold, like a dead person.
