331 Blood Sacrifice

When we returned to the glass house, Niu Lifan was already waiting there.At this time, the people in the glass house had already left work.There is a vigil for workers at the construction site, but there is no such thing as the glass house.

When I got out of the car, Niu Lifan looked at me in surprise: "Why did you follow me?"

Zong Sheng got out of the car and said, "I'm even more worried about leaving her at home alone. Besides, it's only half an hour for the ceremony, and it will be over in a while. Are everything ready?"

Niu Lifan nodded, pulled out a large bag from the car, and asked, "Are you sure you want to do this?"

"If you are afraid, you can wait." Zong Sheng pulled the big bag from his hand, Niu Lifan became anxious and said quickly: "I'm not, I'm not, you wait Me. Let me learn it too. Even if I can’t learn it, at least I can understand it.”

Because of the relationship I followed, when Zong Sheng entered the gate of the construction site, he turned on all the headlights in the construction site power distribution room on the left side of the gate.Some night watch workers also came to watch the excitement.

Zong Sheng took out the compass from the pocket of his overalls, looked around, and selected a place.Turning back to me, she said, "Youxuan, just stand there and watch. No matter what happens later, just don't make a sound or move."

I nodded, but when I saw him put down the big bag, I was puzzled: "Hey, shouldn't there be chickens and ducks in this ritual? You say blood sacrifice, how can there be blood?" I asked.Not to mention such a large project, in our hometown, during the Chinese New Year and festivals, there will always be chickens and ducks for sacrifices.

Niu Lifan helped to take out those things, pointed to Zong Sheng beside him, and said, "Isn't this a living sacrifice?"

Zong Sheng gave him a hard look: "Speak again, I'll make you a blood sacrifice in a while. Help, put a lamp in eight directions."

Only then did Niu Lifan frown, carrying a bag and a compass, and left temporarily.

Zong Sheng spread a big red cloth on a small dusty table at the construction site, making the small table look like that for a while.Then he put it out in the same way.Incense burner, joss sticks, talisman paper, bells and a sword.I don't know where Niu Lifan got that sword, it seems to be a real sword.

After putting everything in order, seeing that the time was almost up, he shouted to the construction site inside: "Niu Lifan, are you ready! Time is up!"

Far away over there, I heard Niu Lifan's voice shouting: "There are still four lamps left, don't worry, I'll check the time, it won't delay your auspicious time."

Following Niu Lifan's voice, I looked around, and on this messy construction site where deep foundation pits had been dug, the surrounding lights were already on.The light should be from that kind of kerosene lamp, very weak, but burning firmly.The lights came on one by one, and I could see the strangeness inside.Eight lamps surround the foundation.Moreover, the distance between the eight lights is very even, as if they are on a circle, and eight points are marked equilaterally.I don't know how Niu Lifan could place those lights so accurately, probably because of the compass.

When he returned to Zong Sheng, Zong Sheng said, "Exactly, at [-]:[-], we can start."

Niu Lifan looked back at me: "Zong Youxuan can just stand like this."

I thought he meant what would happen if I stood for so long with my body on.But after listening to Zong Sheng's words, I realized that my understanding was incorrect.He replied: "It's okay, the child in her belly is my son, and she has lightning strike wood on her body. Even if those things come, they won't be able to get close to her if they are interested in her." After Zong Sheng finished speaking, he began to light candles, He said to the workers who watched the excitement over there: "Go back to the work shed and go to sleep. No matter what you hear for a while, just sleep with your head covered, and don't worry about anything else. Don't be curious to peek at this excitement. The blood sacrifice is scared to death. , I’m not considered a work-related injury.”

Some workers shrank their necks and went back to the work shed.But there are also three or four workers who just don't leave, but stand at the door of the work shed and watch.

Zong Sheng ignored them and started his ceremony.The candles are lit.He respectfully lit the incense, held a large handful of paper money and lit it on the candle, muttering something silently, and with a wave of his hand, the burning paper money was blown away with the wind.But it didn't fall down after a few blows like the general wind blows, but rotated and moved slowly, and landed on the positions of the eight lights surrounding the construction site that Niu Lifan had lit before.

Niu Lifan had already retreated to my side gently, and said in a low voice, "Here we come! It's really a success! He is too easy to communicate with."

"What? Communication?"

"Yes, Zong Sheng's is summoning nearby ghosts."

I was shocked, no wonder I couldn't understand their conversation just now, this is not an ordinary blood sacrifice at all.

Zong Sheng held the bell in one hand and drew out the sharp sword with the other without changing his face.The sound of bells came from time to time, and the wind around us seemed to change with the sound of bells.It's as if the sound of the bell can control the surrounding wind.

Gradually, the wind spun around the construction site, slowly twirling, and vaguely saw the paper money ash from before also twirling around the foundation with the wind.In such a big venue, Zong Sheng was able to control the wind!
The bells became more and more dense, and the wind became stronger and stronger. Gradually, I seemed to hear someone talking in the wind.It was rustling, and I couldn't hear what they were saying.

A chill came over, as if someone passed by quickly behind me, and the cold wind brought up made my skin crawl.

Niu Lifan next to him hugged his arm and rubbed it vigorously: "You are such an awesome man!"

I have a bad premonition, as if there is a ghost walking by my side.The sound of the bell was getting faster and faster, Zong Sheng put down the bell in his hand, and said loudly: "With my blood, sacrifice the land in all directions, keep the gossip, and be safe and happy. Xxxxx." He kept repeating something in his mouth ,I do not understand.I heard it clearly, but I am sure that sentence is not a meaningful sentence in normal Chinese.If I have to say something like it, then I can only say it is a bit like a spell.After repeating it nine times, the long sword in his hand was drawn down against the back of his hand, and at the same time he waved his hand in the air.The long sword carried his blood and sprinkled it into the air.The wind was still spinning, and I heard voices in the air that were hidden in the wind.It was laughter, ghost laughter.I even saw those grimaces whirling with the wind when the blood droplets flew out.Their horrified faces were chasing the flying blood droplets, and together with the blood droplets, they rotated with the wind, around the entire construction site, and rotated at the position of the eight lights placed by Niu Lifan.

The wind gradually subsided, and the blood drops and those ghosts in the wind slowly fell on the foundation with the wind, and fell into the deep pits of those foundations.

I covered my mouth with my hand in surprise.No wonder he said not to scream no matter what he encounters, just look at it like this.By now, I can see it clearly.He sacrificed the project with his own blood, and at the same time, injected those nearby ghosts into the foundation.And those ghosts seemed to follow his blood willingly, and entered the foundation together in the wind.

The ritual was not over yet. He used a writing brush to dip the blood gushing out from the back of his hand and wrote something on the talisman paper prepared at the side. After a minute or two, he should have finished writing, so he took the talisman Zhang had already folded the talisman paper, held it with a special gesture, and bowed to the incense burner in front of him.Wrap the talisman paper with red cloth.

They all used red cloth, so that people couldn't see how serious the injury on the back of Zong Sheng's hand was.But I think the red cloth on the table, if it was a white cloth, should be stained with blood by now.

After he turned around, Niu Lifan immediately stepped forward, took the talisman, turned on the compass, and began to look at the direction.On Zong Sheng's side, the ingots have already started to be burned.I didn't dare to get close, and I didn't know if it was all over.

Niu Lifan found a suitable location, just opposite the gate, where a large pillar was designed, which was the front end of the bow and arrow, and the part that supported the bow.A deep foundation pit has been dug there.Just watched Niu Lifan jumping down such a deep foundation pit with a shovel in hand.

Zong Sheng was still burning the ingot, so I didn't dare to talk to him casually, so I moved to Niu Lifan and asked, "Hey, what are you doing?"

"This document addressed to the Land Lord is to tell the Land Lord to bless our project. From now on, there will be a land leader directly under the management here. Bury it here and let the pillars press it. This is our side. The eye of the foundation array. If anyone sees it, they will dig here directly, hehehe."

I watched him shovel the soil hard, and frowned: "You still have to dig deeper? How will you come up in a while?" This kind of foundation is dug by machinery, and it is really impossible to climb up without tools. not big.

We were talking on this side, and a worker on the other side had already walked up to Zong Sheng and asked loudly: "Little boss, what do you mean? Those ghosts... I saw them all, and they all sank into the foundation. "

Zong Sheng looked at the burning Yuanbao in front of him and said, "It's nothing. They will help us guard the building. During the construction period, everyone will be safe."

A younger boy also boldly said: "We all know that there is a ghost under this foundation, how can we be safe? I think you want to kill us! Huh! I quit! Follow your kind Evil boss!"

Zong Sheng turned around slowly, looked at him, those cold eyes made him shrink his neck in fear, and took two steps back.

Zong Sheng looked at the workers who had also come out to watch the fun and said, "Are there any workers from my hometown?"

Six people from the crowd came out without speaking, but they could all tell that these were workers from the village.Zong Sheng continued, "Tell them, can you believe me. You can go and listen to the story first. After listening, if you still want to leave tomorrow, I won't stop you."
