The sacrifice took almost half a day, and the rest of the day was not so much a march as a song and dance gala. In fact, the sacrifice was originally a dance, or a group dance. It is not a problem to regard the chief priest as the main dance.

The earliest, the origin of the sacrifice was to dance around the fire. During the dance and the rhythm, the heaven and the earth were communicated. Every part of the body was used to experience the existence of the heaven and the earth, and to express one’s own joy. Replaced by dance.

The sense of rhythm in the murmur also has a hypnotic rhythm. Ji Mo had to pull himself together when he was studying, and the adult's narration was based on dividing a mantra into several subsections, which also ensured that the mantra is Intermittent, will not take effect.

In addition to the more common mantras such as the long-distance mantra, other mantras include some mantras such as Shenshui mantra, head wind mantra, and aiki mantra. The syllables are different, but to laymen, they seem to be different. It's almost the same, but the utility is really much worse.

The Shenshui mantra is a mantra that bestows magical effects on ordinary clear water, which is similar to asking ghosts and gods to bestow supernatural powers. The head wind mantra is to treat head wind, and the head wind disease may have a clearer classification in modern times. What is the cause? Headaches, but in ancient times they ignored them. If you have a headache, treat your head and feet, and treat your feet.

Wu Zhu uses mantras instead of needles and drugs, and they are also classified in the same way. In addition to the common mantras such as the long-term disease mantra, other healing spells include heart disease mantras, abdominal mantras, and lower body mantras. There are mantras for each part, whether it is caused by a cold, a fever, or just a bad mood, where you feel pain everywhere, there are corresponding mantras that you can recite.

There are also different dance gestures and the like, and even the location where the eyes are focused is different, and the water used is also different. Some of them need to be splashed with fingers. Cooperating with this kind of action, if you take a willow or something, it may also have a compassionate effect like the Guanyin master.

Incantations and sacrificial inscriptions are not the same text.

Ji Mo's learning is depressing. This is much better than learning a foreign language. Apart from his mother tongue, he is required to learn at most one foreign language. Now this is the rhythm of learning three languages. Fortunately, there are not many words in the sacrificial texts, and even fewer words in the mantras. Yes, it's all to match the God's face article.

There are mantras, but it does not mean that there are talismans. These mantras should be drawn in the air, like a coherent gesture expressing a certain meaning in sign language, or directly dipped in water with your fingers, on clothes, body, forehead Writing in a superior position.

Water is not wine. There is no large-scale wine making these days. All wine is obtained occasionally, and there is a possibility of drinking people's stomachs, or even death. It is considered unclean water.

The water Wu Zhu used was water with ice added, so it was extraordinarily cool, and the feeling relative to body temperature was stronger, and it seemed to dry extremely quickly.

And the source of ice is the application of ground frost, to be precise, the application of saltpeter. The production of saltpeter ice is originally a product of ancient civilization, and it has been skillfully used by adults in advance. , Ji Mo can only admire him.

At the same time, the superstitious explanation given by the other party is also refreshing. The so-called "mysterious frost from the sky" means a god-given magic medicine.

As for what kind of disease this magical medicine can cure, it can only be said that fortunately Wu Zhu is the kind who does not agree with taking medicine, or that they do not have the string of taking medicine, and they will not mix these messy things into their mouths. This kind of "mysterious frost" is only shown as a kind of miracle, and in addition, in some necessary rituals similar to pretending to be ghosts, the mysterious frost is used to create some responses from ghosts and gods.

After Ji Mo learned this slowly, he regretted that he didn't study chemistry well back then. What and what reaction would turn purple?What and what reaction will it turn blue?What else will turn red, what will turn green... He can't remember what he learned back then, and it doesn't match what the adults taught him.

Ji Mo tried hard to think back, but he really couldn't remember a few things about this aspect, and what he told the adults was not right. Since it is difficult to remember with his own memory, he simply pretended that he had never known it and started from the beginning. From the beginning, follow the method of adults directly.

Those substances that are easy to change color when they meet in twos are stored separately. Some of them have been further processed, such as fire, and some are ground into powder, and they are mixed into water for grinding when needed. It is like grinding ink, using a piece of bone to grind little by little. During this process, Ji Mo always suspects that there will be bone powder ground into it, but this can be regarded as adding spirituality, so that this special paper that has been drawn and dried has a certain quality. An aura of occultism.

It can be said that a large part of Wu Zhu's knowledge is in the category of mysticism. Even chemistry is quite mysterious before it is classified as a science.

The other knowledge is about astrology and geography. Ji Mo thinks that Wu Zhu is an expert in miscellaneous encyclopedias, not only in folklore history, philosophy, but also astrology research, and some knowledge in geography. If you want to say, there may be some related to Feng Shui, such as where is the best orientation, what to put in the room to gather energy, where should be the place of punishment, and where there is killing energy.

There is also the comprehensive relationship between ghosts and gods. This one is very powerful. If there is a sun god, there is a moon god. The sun is yang, the moon is yin, yang is male, and yin is female. Does it sound like a good match?Yeah, it's a good match, but again, what about goddesses like Fengshen, Spring, Water, Oneiroi and the like?

Although there are still a large number of male gods who can marry, for male gods, the more goddesses the better, so the complex relationship between gods is like a huge map.

Among Wu Zhu's knowledge, this area accounts for at least one-third of the proportion, and Wu Zhu's sacrifices to ghosts and gods are often mediating the relationship between these messy male and female gods. These gods are not purely innocent. The kind of wanting nothing, but mostly human nature, like human beings, there will be things like cheating.

In addition, some gods are the product of adultery or something.

These products include but are not limited to the big fish in the river, the flying eagle in the sky, the white tiger on the ground, and the possible ghosts at night.

There are also gods born from the orthodox relationship between husband and wife. For example, when the sun and the moon are in conjunction, there are stars, so the stars are also gods.God is even more so, and should have this ability even more.

The names of the various stars, not to mention naming all of them, but also naming those that can be distinguished, the eldest son, the youngest son, the eldest daughter, and the youngest daughter, are arranged in order, and they are all named. This is like the job of an astrologer. Already working.

The same goes for mountains and rivers, what kind of mountains are mountains, what kind of legends are there, what kind of rivers are rivers, how they come from, what kind of stories are mountains and rivers dependent on each other, and if the trees on the mountains grow special, they also have special characteristics. If the name of the tree was struck by lightning, burned, or burned to ashes, it must have offended some god, and the reason may be because the identity of the tree's illegitimate child was exposed.

Which god left the seed of cheating, was discovered by his wife, and then there was a thunderbolt, and the illegitimate child died in the end.

This kind of illegitimate child who has a clear genealogy, that is, who knows who his parent god is, mainly who his father god is, can occupy a place among ghosts.

Then there are the merits and demerits of emperors in the world, oh, at this time they are still called kings. After the other party dies, Wu Zhu will classify the other party as a god or a ghost according to the evaluation given by the courtiers. After the category is set, it is the division of powers.

Those who killed the king, those who were killed by the king, and many countries, including the life experience of the king, have been endowed with a legendary color. At this time, there is also the theory of reincarnation. Which ghosts and gods visit the world and become the king, the king After death, ghosts and gods return to their place, so there are some visions.

For all these things, after the decision is made, it is necessary to write sacrificial texts, sacrifices, and report to the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth. If a "man-made disaster" comes out, it proves that the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth are not satisfied with this matter and need to reconsider.

The next sacrificial ceremony for this matter will be aggravated and so on.

This kind of thing is passed on by word of mouth. The adults talked dryly and drank water several times. Ji Mo also heard dry mouth, swallowing and spitting, even writing historical biographies of strange novels is not so hard. !Isn't this about writing a myth and legend?

I have no talent in writing novels!These things look simple, and it seems that there is no logic. In fact, there is a set of logic in it, just like Zeus is a stallion, a certain god is narcissistic, and a certain god is extremely loyal. These ghosts and gods are all endowed with personalities. Once the template is set, future generations cannot go out of the frame, otherwise it will be a misinterpretation, and for Wu Zhu, what is the result of the misinterpretation, it must be death without a whole body!

Fortunately, when this genealogy of ghosts and gods was passed on to Ji Mo, what he needed to learn was only a few hundred people, divided into one part in the sky and the earth, and then removing the miscellaneous things, he could also draw out a few main lines. , so as not to make the memory too messy, the embarrassing thing is that this is not listening to novels, just listen to it for fun, and you have to memorize it by heart, not on paper.

The names of ghosts and gods can be spoken, but they cannot be written with a pen, write down, write down, this is also a point of professional knowledge.

Now I can't even take notes.

Ji Mo still has the habit of taking notes. At least when he knew that this huge genealogy was to be memorized, he asked the adults to use a kind of "self-created characters" to abbreviate and draw graphics. Daddy, after patching a few pieces of sheepskin, the lord looked at the picture and gradually became more thoughtful.

At first, Ji Mo just wanted to understand it for himself. The sun god wrote "day", and the moon god wrote "moon", omitting the word "shen". Later, he found that the names of these ghosts and gods were also difficult to remember, so he had to add parentheses to supplement them. name.

After the chart was enlarged, the adults seemed to have discovered the benefits of this kind of recording, and they had been telling Ji Mo about it for several days, hoping that the chart would be complete as soon as possible. In the process, Ji Mo's "self-created characters" were also learned by the other party. It was all over the place, without Ji Mo pointing and reading aloud, he could distinguish which ones were which ones by himself.

While Ji Mo was shocked, he found that his name "Blessed by Ghosts and Gods" became even more resounding. With the acquiescence of the adults, everyone in the mansion no longer dared to look at Ji Mo directly.

The witch wish has not been achieved, but the power has been achieved.
