The receptionist took me eastward tremblingly. I picked the grass off my head again, as this thing might be used by the enemy.
What kind of grass is this? It’s the sedge grass!
In ancient Taoism, it is the orthodox Taoist method of "couple love method", which makes the couple more like sugar and honey, and more loving. "Without wind, the grass sways alone, which makes the couple love each other. The head of the grass grows in Lingnan, like the tail of a spring or a bird. The two leaves open and close automatically, so it is called the single-swaying grass!"
But later it was used by sorcerers to seduce women for a long time. Once the evil magic was applied, no matter how bad the man was, the woman would love him forever and obey his words. Because this magic was tainted by sorcerers, the orthodox Taoists also abandoned it. Besides, it does not mean that there are no orthodox disciples with impure intentions. There are Taoist disciples all over the world, and it is inevitable that there are good and bad ones. Sometimes they are more sinister than sorcerers and do evil things that are against morality, so this magic was not recorded in the ancient books of Maoshan.
But when I was a teenager, I heard my father talk about this evil magic and there was a folk remedy to break it. It has been so long since then that I don’t remember it clearly. If it weren’t for Qu Mo’s words “I look forward to meeting this person”, I wouldn’t have thought it was the loblolly grass. I threatened the receptionist and carefully identified the loblolly grass before I was sure it was indeed this harmful thing.
You think, if a woman is caught in this spell and cannot be cracked, she will follow him obediently for the rest of her life, and she is actually a sex slave. The receptionist is so scared of this, it seems that she knows the benefits and disadvantages. Although she is not the main messenger, she has helped to harm countless women!
It was two o'clock in the morning, and there was no one on the street. I was doubly alert, holding a copper coin in my hand. But the road was calm. I followed the receptionist to the east end of the town. She pointed to a house on the south side of the road by the water and said, "My two sisters went there just now."
Seeing her trembling, I probably didn't dare to lie, and then I threatened her not to tell anyone when she returned, otherwise I would use the Duyao grass to make her follow me for the rest of her life. When the little girl heard the three words Duyao grass, she was so scared that she almost fell down. She nodded her head vigorously several times and ran back as if she was escaping.
The house was set back and there was a bluestone path in front of the door. From a distance, it looked eerie in the darkness.
Just as I was about to go in, I suddenly felt a cold breath behind me. I quickly turned around and saw a pale ghost face appear behind me. My heart skipped a beat when I suddenly saw it.
I took a closer look and saw it was Mei Xiaoqing, so I felt relieved. She whispered to me, "Mr. Xi is here. You can't go in through this door. Xiaoqi discovered their secret of seducing women and was caught when he tried to enter through here. The main entrance is at the back of the house, but you have to be careful too." After that, she disappeared immediately.
There was a sound of a door opening, and I quickly hid behind a corner of a house. I peeked out and saw two dark figures coming out.
"It must be this devil woman again. Big brother, you deal with those two girls, I'll go after her." said one person.
"This ghost woman is very smart, we can't catch up with her. But there is no way to save her husband. Let's go back, one each, these two are top-notch." The other one finished speaking with an obscene laugh.
"What if the old man knew about this?" the man asked in a low voice.
