Chapter 3, Divination of Animal Bones


The matter of the wandering female ghost has come to an end for the time being, but the Mosuo people can no longer keep them.

When it was just dawn the next morning, I was woken up by the fat man and shouted at me to pack my luggage. otbnkotgt It was still a bit cold in the early morning, so I got out of the tent with eyes dazed.

There was already a lively scene in the stockade.

Daba stood at the entrance of the stockade and saw Fatty Cui walking over, so he said a few words.

I yawned.

I couldn’t understand what Daba was saying anyway, so I simply refused to listen and turned to look at the villagers around me.

To my surprise, the attitude of these villagers who were very enthusiastic towards me a few days ago, drinking and dancing, seemed to have changed completely towards me today.

Their eyes looked quite cold.

The women and their children stayed away from me, while the men and the elderly had gloomy faces.

It was like I was a pathogen they were trying to avoid.

I felt something was wrong, and when Fatty Cui came over, I couldn't help but ask: "Fat man, what's wrong with these villagers?

Why are they looking at me like they've seen a monster?"

Fatty Cui seemed to understand a little better.

He touched the magic stick on my waist and whispered: "The stick on your waist is a magic weapon used by Daba to subjugate ghosts.

Daba locked the female ghost here."

Among magic sticks, in other words, this magic stick is equivalent to a female ghost at this moment.

It’s strange that others are not afraid of you if you carry a female ghost with you.”

I suddenly woke up and heard Fatty Cui mention the female ghost.

The fear that had faded a lot came to my mind again.

At that time, I lowered my head and thought, I still don’t know how to deal with this magic stick.

According to my temper, it is impossible to throw away the magic stick casually.

God knows whether the female ghost inside will come out.

I couldn't figure it out for a while, but I just planned to wait until I returned to Shanghai and go to a Buddhist temple to see if there was any way to eliminate this karma.

While I was thinking about something, Fatty Cui added, "The folks in the village will be going to the town for the market in a while, so they can give us a ride."

As he spoke, he pointed to two tractors in the distance, with two huge iron frames pulling behind them, and wheels tied under the frames.

At that time, there were only bullock carts and tractors in the countryside.

If you saw a car, you would be excited for a long time.

"Before we leave, Daba said that he can do some divination for us.

The divination taught by Daba is quite effective, and there are not many opportunities to experience it.

Several researchers are very interested.

Come and have a look."

After Fatty Cui finished speaking, he went to greet the big guys, and I walked over to meet Daba, only to see Daba sitting at the gate smoking a cigarette wearing his wide-brimmed hat, with his one-meter-long knife hanging on his waist.

He had a long knife, but he held a few pieces of wood in his right hand.

He saw me from a distance, his eyes were as sharp as knives, and he nodded slightly to me without saying a word.

After about ten minutes, everyone had packed up their belongings, put their luggage on the tractor, and then they all gathered together.

Daba stood up, closed his eyes while holding the wood chips in his hand, and muttered something.

The fat man walked to me quietly, lowered his head and said, "Daba is reciting a spell.

This is called wood chip divination.

The one he held in his hand The wood chips are all cast.

There are new and old wood chips, and each wood chip is cut into a new side.

After a while, the wood chips will be thrown out.

If there are more new sides facing up, it is a good sign, otherwise.

It’s a bad omen.”

I nodded knowingly.

Originally, in my opinion, divination and all that was nonsense.

He can really predict my future, but since I saw this Daba subduing the female ghost, I have no doubts about his ability.

Therefore, I have some special expectations for this divination.

After reciting the mantra for a while, Daba suddenly stood still, and then threw the wood chips in his hand.

I immediately stood up from the ground and stared at the ground in the distance.

However, the results of the divination surprised both Fatty and me.

A total of seventeen wood chips were used for the Daba.

At this moment, all the wood chips fell to the ground.

However, what surprised us all was that none of the wood chips had the new side facing the outside.

In other words, the result of this divination was a bad omen. bad omen The fat man's face suddenly dropped.

He, I and several other researchers were all pale.

We all experienced the fight with the female ghost last night.

Everyone had seen Daba's methods.

The divination results were so dangerous.

Who could No one expected it, but no one dared not believe it "No way" I whispered.

Unable to help but swallow, Daba stepped forward and picked up the wood chips on the ground piece by piece.

The fat man hurriedly stepped forward to negotiate.

From a distance, I saw Daba's head shaking like a rattle, and his expression was very serious.

The fat man talked to Daba for a long time before he came back.

When he saw me, he said: "Daba said that wood chips would predict something bad on our way back.

I asked him to divine again.

He said that he could use animal bones to divine for us later. , that would be more accurate.”

"Beast Bones" I knew nothing about the Daba religion, and the fat man had no time to explain it to me and walked away in a hurry.

The few of us could only wait next to the tractor.

This wait lasted for nearly an hour, but the place of divination was changed to Daba's house.

The appearance of Daba's house is no different from that of ordinary Mosuo people, but the inside is completely different.

The sun and moon flags are hung on the walls, and there are horns, sheep heads, bells and the like on the table.

A whole bunch of stuff.

Fatty Cui didn't let me enter the house, so I could only stand at the door and look in.

I could vaguely see a lot of wooden sticks similar to the magic sticks on my waist placed in the corners.

After a while, several villagers came out carrying a large offering plate.

Daba changed his clothes and looked more formal.

He held a large piece of animal bone in one hand and a ball of something that looked like velvet in the other hand.

When he walked to the big offering plate, he first placed the animal bones on it, then bowed several times in all directions, and then began to recite incantations.

Fatty Cui retreated to my side at this time.

Without him as an expert in translation and Dabaism, I felt really dark about the situation in front of me.

"Fat man, what are you doing?"

I asked strangely.

"The Daba sect worships gods."

The fat man whispered.

The time for reciting the incantation passed quickly while we waited impatiently.

Then I saw Daba pressing the velvet grass in his hand on the surface of the animal bone, and lighting the velvet grass while mumbling something in his mouth.

The grass burned quickly, but the black smoke that came out was not too thick.

It burned out within a few seconds, and then the wind blew and the ashes dissipated.

Fatty Cui pulled me up, and Daba also stared at the burned part of the animal bone carefully at this moment.

"This animal bone must be a shoulder blade.

The gaps on it will fade after drying.

Daba believe that these gaps can guide some mysterious power.

After the velvet is ignited and a spell is added, this power will be stimulated and the gaps will be extended.

If there are more gaps facing upward, it means a good omen.

If there are more gaps facing downward, it means a bad omen.

The one above represents the earth and the ghosts.

Bar" The fat man gave a simple explanation, and I nodded repeatedly.

At this moment, Daba had straightened up.

I had a chance to take a look, but I saw that there were indeed cracks in the dark and burned place.

However, most of them were cracks.

It touches the bottom, and the cracks are long and obvious "Fuck."

The fat man and I cursed almost at the same time.

The wood pieces were a bad omen for divination, and the bones were also a bad omen for divination.

Doesn't this mean that going back this time is very dangerous, and you may have a narrow escape?

"Fat man, can you believe this divination?"

I had seen very few Fenglang at that time, and the incident with the female ghost convinced me of Daba's ability.

Now I was even more panicked after seeing the divination results.

The fat man also frowned and talked to Daba for a long time.

When he came back, the fat man was holding ten palm-sized cloth bags.

"Daba gave me the amulet.

He said that wearing the amulet might keep you safe.

However, this thing is not cheap.

I kept the pair of sunglasses."

The fat man’s sunglasses were brought from Europe by his uncle.

He was very proud at the time.

After putting them on, this guy looked pretty with us for a long time.

I also cherished it very much.

I didn't expect to exchange these sunglasses for ten amulets today.

"We owe it to you.

When we get back to Shanghai, I will find a way to get you another pair."

I took the amulet from his hand and put it in my arms.

Half an hour later, everyone got on the tractor and left the village with anxiety.

When I was leaving, I looked back at the Mosuo village.

Surrounded by clouds and mist, it looked like a wonderful fairyland, free from dust.
