I carried the person from the water to the shore, grabbed a few blades of grass and rubbed the body's face hard several times. The gold powder covering the man's face was immediately wiped off layer by layer by me, revealing his true face.

"Old Xu..." Scar pushed the dead body twice: "Old Xu, why did he die here? Didn't he... didn't he go home?"

Scar's words seemed normal, but in fact they made people feel chilled in their hearts.

I have never seen how skilled Lao Xu is, but Liuzi has always been near us. Those of us with strong skills still need to hang ropes to fall to the bottom of the mountain stream safely. How could a crazy person like Liuzi get around in front of us? , climbed down from the steep cliff without any damage

And there is this Lao Xu. So many people shot at him at close range just now. You can imagine how strong the impact of the bullet is. Even if Lao Xu was not blown away, he should have fallen to the ground on his back, but he He was knocked flat and backwards like a building block. Is this how a normal person should react

I calmly picked up Lao Xu's clothes with my bayonet: "He was shot to death. In other words, he walked to seek death on his own. How could a man who dared not even climb the mountain run away on his own?" Come to die? Old man Sun, should you give us an explanation now?"

Old Man Sun sat down on the ground slumped: "Actually, I know Jin Daxian. My ancestor is Jin Daxian."

I said in a deep voice: "Speak clearly to me."

Old Man Sun said: "Let me tell you, it is true that my grandfather welcomed Jin Daxian back from the mountains. It is also true that my father built a temple for Jin Daxian. However, the subsequent appearance of Jin Daxian was a lie. That Jin Daxian It was my father who pretended it."

"After my father got Jin Daxian back, for some reason, he knew how to do the trance. But he had to wear a gold mask to dance, and it wouldn't work without him. My father was afraid that people would know about the golden mask. , causing death, but I felt that I couldn’t just cut off this way of making money. I simply put a brass mask on it and put it on the statue of Jin Daxian, and secretly used the gold mask to pretend to be Jin Daxian to cheat money."

"Actually, what you said is correct. After my father brought Jin Daxian back, he has been playing the role of temple blessing. The villagers prayed to God to ask questions, and all the money they sent fell into my father's pocket. I I have indeed lived a comfortable life for several years."

Old Man Sun continued: "Originally, my father wanted to pass on the secret of the Golden Mask to my father, so that our old Sun family could live a life with no shortage of money by relying on the Golden Mask. Who knew that the Golden Mask would bring my father His face doesn’t work, it’s just like wearing an ordinary mask.”

"Later, my father gave up on that idea. It wasn't until my father had me that he started thinking about it again. As a result, like my father, I had no reaction at all to the Golden Mask."

"Wait a moment." You deliberately interrupted Old Man Sun: "Has the Great Fairy ever appeared in your ancestors?"

Old man Sun's words are somewhat credible. Some of the great immortals in Northeast China were brought out by their masters, but there are also many great immortals who are self-taught without any teacher.

There has always been a saying among the great fairies that "immortals come to find people", which means that after the fairy family takes a fancy to a certain person, they will force him to become a fairy. This is the reason why some great fairies can learn on their own without any teachers.

I have heard this saying before, but those who become immortals without any teacher must have had great immortals among their ancestors or direct relatives, otherwise, the immortal family would not come to them.

Old man Sun shook his head and said: "My family has never had a great fairy before, and even Yuan Zhi'er's relatives don't have a great fairy."

I quickly asked: "When your father dances to Shen'er, does he dance by himself or with two people?"

Now, everyone who invites Xian'er and dances to Shen'er is the same person. However, the authentic dancing masters are two people, one master and two gods. The master is responsible for communicating with the gods, and the two gods are responsible for translating the "divine language" spoken by the master.

Old man Sun said: "My father is the only one. Moreover, when my father came to Shen'er, he didn't want to jump up and down like other great immortals, talk to others, and didn't talk to anyone. He just sat cross-legged. Until Until things come out."

"Huh?" I couldn't help but frown.

"Shaman" originates from the Tungus language and can be translated as "excited person", "excited person" or even "crazy person". The shaman's god-inviting ceremony will inevitably include a god-inviting dance. After the demise of shamanism, authentic shamanism Although the dance has been lost, the great immortal's movements are extremely crazy when dancing to the gods. The ancestors of the Sun family didn't need to dance to pray to gods

I asked again: "Your grandfather never said what he carried back from the mountains?"

"It's a mummy." Old Man Sun said: "My father said that he was indeed entrusted by Jin Daxian in a dream to walk out of Black Wind Col. After he came back, Jin Daxian asked him in a dream to accept him as a disciple. That mask, So he took it off."

I frowned and said, "Go on."

Old Man Sun continued: "Originally, I had already considered selling the golden mask in the future to leave some wealth for my descendants. However, thirty years ago, after I discovered that Sick Yangzi was carrying evil spirits, I decided not to do so again. thoughts."

Old man Sun pointed at the man on the fire bed and said: "He is the sick man. The big one is Sun Xianwen, who is still my nephew. Sun Xianwen was not in good health when he was born. He is sick all day long. The only way to get sick is to take medicine. The children in the village don't like to play with him, and they often get together to bully him."

"In the beginning, his parents were quite concerned about him, but as time went by, they were even unwilling to treat his illness. Whenever he was sick, they would buy him some medicine if they were happy, but if they were unhappy, they would just kick him. I didn’t care about his feet anymore. I thought he was pitiful at that time, so I always took him to live at home.”

"Bingyangzi spent more time with me than with his parents. Later, his parents simply refused to let him go back home. I even fought with his parents because of this. After one fight, his father said that he will never want him again, and if he wants to die, he will die in my house."

"From then on, Sick Yangzi hated his parents and two younger brothers. He would always get up in the middle of the night and secretly stab the wooden man with a needle, his parents, and his younger brother."

"At first, I didn't take it seriously. I just thought, the child is still young and he is heartbroken. How can he be willing to vent his anger on a stupid person? I just let him go. Who would have thought that his father , He was really dead. When he died, he was bleeding from all his orifices and his eyes were not even closed."

"Not two days later, his mother was gone. She was bleeding from all her orifices and dying with eyes closed. Then there was his eldest brother... His whole family died within a month, and even the second brother who was picked up by his grandmother did not run away. "

Old Man Sun couldn't help but show fear in his eyes when he said this: "At that time, I was thinking, did his family let him be cursed to death?"

Seeing Old Man Sun stop, Scar quickly asked, "Did he curse him to death?"

"Yes!" Old Man Sun nodded and said: "At that time, in order to test whether Bingyangzi had the ability to curse people to death, I deliberately provoked him, saying that his grandma's family was so unkind to him that they only took his younger brother away. , without even asking him a question."

"At that time, Bingyangzi said, I'll curse them to death. Bingyangzi still stabbed wooden figures every night, but this time, his trick didn't work. The people in his grandma's family were living well, and nothing happened. He himself seems to be seriously ill, and the doctor I saw for him said he has lost his vitality."

"I guessed that his grandma's house was too far away, so it was useless for him to curse people. After he recovered, I quietly took out the golden mask and put it on him and asked him to try again. The sick man thought it was me. If he is good, then he really takes action. This time it really works."

"First, the second brother who was taken away by his grandma died, and then his grandma, his uncle, and no one he knew was left. There were rumors in the village over there, and some called the police. I asked Da Xian'er, but no matter who comes, it's useless. People will die the same way even if they die, and they won't be able to escape even if they are sent to the hospital to be raised."

When Old Man Sun said this, he lit up a cigarette and took two deep puffs: "At that time, I was also obsessed with things. I asked Bingyangzi if he wanted to become a great immortal? Make everyone afraid of him?"

"Bingyangzi has never been to school or seen the world. He just listens to whatever I say? I simply gave him all the gold masks and gold robes passed down from my family."

"I asked him to dress up as the Golden Immortal and hide in the mountains to curse those who went up the mountain. As long as someone fell under the curse, I would go out to pray for the immortal and drag the person back. Naturally, I could make a lot of money from this."

When I heard this, my face gradually darkened, and Old Man Sun could only pretend that he hadn't seen it: "After the two of us succeeded a few times, we tasted the benefits, so I simply told outsiders that Bingyangzi had died of illness, and sent him a funeral message. I got my registered permanent residence. In those days, we were not strict about cremation matters, so I easily turned a sick person into a dead person."

"After that, no one knows that Bingyangzi is still alive. Even if they look at Bingyangzi, they will think they have met a ghost, and it will be easier for me to defraud Jin Daxian out of money."

"In order to control Bingyangzi, I asked him to return the golden mask to me as soon as possible after using it. Bingyangzi was quite obedient at that time, but later he became more and more disobedient and simply refused to give me the golden mask. ”

Old Man Sun gritted his teeth and said: "I went up the mountain to ask for it from him several times, but he refused to give it back to me no matter what. He almost made a move when he got desperate. That time we were completely at odds with each other."

"Bingyangzi said that he asked me three times. Within three times, he will not cause trouble to my family. If I can't kill him three times and dare to think about him again, he will let my whole family die."

"I moved my hands twice, but Bingyangzi was able to dodge them all, and I almost got mine. The third time, I didn't dare to make a move. Later, I followed him softly, and I deliberately I chatted with him for a day and finally reached an agreement with him."

I asked in a deep voice: "What agreement?"
