There has always been a very deep foundation among the nomadic peoples in the north. Later, Mongolia and Houjin established political power. Although they also worshiped Buddhism, the real national teacher has always been the great shaman. All major matters about the national destiny must be consulted by the shaman. , divination to ask the sky.

In the north, Shamanism used to be said to be all up and down. The upper level can help the country's fortune and guide Fengshui; In the folk, shaman has a more popular name: Tiao Dashen.

However, the inheritance of shamans has declined, and basically only the folk dancing gods are left. This is how the titles of witches and gods come from, but they have lost those legendary magic spells.

Ye Shaoyang has read the records of this aspect in the classics, and the reasons given in the classics are very simple: First, just like the disappearance of other ethnic minority traditions, it is the result of the great integration of ethnic groups. Basically, it is the lack of system of shamans The inheritance of the shaman is basically handed down from father to son, master to apprentice, not by written words, but by word of mouth. Naturally, the number of people is not many. If a shaman dies before he finds the inheritance, then this The pulse is gone.

Another most important reason is that not everyone can be a shaman. They need a special physique. They are born with psychics, or like the Tubo poets, they have suffered from serious illness or survived a catastrophe. Change, compared with ordinary people, this kind of people are more likely to perceive evil things and the existence of "Qi" in all things, so they can communicate with spirits and become a bridge of communication between humans and ghosts and gods.

There is a standard term for this kind of person in the magic world, which is called a spirit medium.

Psychic media can also be divided into strengths and weaknesses. Generally speaking, someone who has yin and yang eyes is actually a kind of psychic media.

Pony is also a psychic medium, but the psychic level is very high.

Ye Shaoyang himself is an innate spirit body, and is actually a kind of spirit medium, but this kind of physique is one in a million, and it is rare in a hundred years.

Because of the lack of writing system and classics, and the high requirements for inheritors, shamanism has declined from generation to generation, and there are few descendants of those truly advanced shamanism.

Ye Shaoyang suddenly remembered a legend about shamans, which happened in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, so he asked Chen San: "You are from the north, have you heard of shamans tapping dragon lairs?"

Chen San grinned and said: "You are talking about the deeds of Qing Batulu, the national teacher of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. He tapped the dragon's lair to continue the life of the Qing Dynasty, but it turned out to be self-defeating, awakening the dragon veins in the south, and accelerated the demise of the Qing Dynasty. .”

Ye Shaoyang said: "I don't know, I just heard this legend, so I'm very curious, but I don't believe that Feng Shui can affect history, man will conquer nature, I believe in this."

"Man is determined to conquer nature. This is also possible, but Feng Shui is also particular about it... Sigh, this kind of thing is something that ordinary people can't comprehend thoroughly. It's just bragging after dinner."

Just as Ye Shaoyang was about to ask him about the details of that incident, he felt someone pull the hem of his clothes behind him, and when he turned around and saw Cuiyun's face flushed, he hurriedly asked her what was wrong.

"I think it's convenient..." Cuiyun said in a low voice.

"Then you go."

"I..." Cuiyun glanced outside the nunnery, "I'm a little scared."

Ye Shaoyang understood that it was because of the previous haunting that left her with lingering fears. This was a bit embarrassing, after all, she was a girl, and she could accompany her in other things. It was convenient for her to go, and she couldn't follow her, so she had to think of a compromise The best way is to go out with her in the rain, send her outside a forest, let her go in conveniently, and wait outside by herself.

Cuiyun blushed and walked in.

Ye Shaoyang waited outside for a long time, but she still didn't come out, so he called out her name loudly, but got no response, Ye Shaoyang was very surprised and hesitated for a while, so he walked into the woods while calling Cuiyun's name , and as soon as he entered, he saw Cuiyun walking out of it.

"Why did I tell you to ignore me?" Ye Shaoyang asked in surprise.

"It's convenient for me, so I can't answer you." Cuiyun smiled shyly, bypassed Ye Shaoyang, and walked towards the Anzi.

Ye Shaoyang followed behind, staring at her back, always feeling that something was wrong, his eyes slipped from her back and landed on her feet, and he was suddenly shocked: Cuiyun was actually walking on tiptoes!

Cuiyun's trousers are relatively long, covering all the way to the top of her feet, and she wears cloth shoes with layered soles, which are very convenient to put on and take off. Cuiyun's heels are lifted from the shoes, but because they are covered by the bottom of the trousers , it is hard to see that she is on tiptoe, if Ye Shaoyang hadn't suspected it first, she would not have noticed it at all.

There is only one reason for walking on tiptoe without knowing it: being possessed by a ghost!

Ye Shaoyang took a deep breath, calmed down, and thought about countermeasures in his mind. To him, being possessed by a ghost is not a big deal, the important thing is to protect Cuiyun's safety, and then how to catch this ghost. It wouldn't be such a coincidence, the ghost possessed now must be the one that lingered around and coveted those corpses before. Even if he drives away, I'm afraid he will come again later.

Ye Shaoyang followed behind Cuiyun, and quietly took out a magic talisman from his belt. The cinnabar popped out from his little thumbnail, and he smeared it with his fingertips.

What he drew was the soul-fixing talisman. He had drawn this kind of basic talisman eight thousand times if not ten thousand times. He didn't need eyes to see it at all. After he finished drawing the talisman, he thought it might not be enough, so he took out the ink fountain again.

At this time, the two had already reached the gate of the nunnery. Chen San was standing outside the nunnery and stretched his head to look around. When he saw them coming back, he said, "Mr. Ye, what were you shouting just now? Is your name Cuiyun sister?"

"She didn't come out for a long time, so I called a few times." Ye Shaoyang perfunctory, his eyes locked on Cuiyun's back.

Cuiyun entered the nunnery, but walked towards the row of corpses standing on the side of the nunnery, Ye Shaoyang chased after him, and said casually: "Sister, what are you doing?"

"I'll see if these corpses are wet. Don't worry." Cuiyun replied lightly.

"Aren't you usually afraid of those corpses?" Ye Shaoyang pretended to follow them unintentionally, and saw Cuiyun walking past those corpses one by one, and finally stopped in front of the sealed human-shaped evil spirit.

"Is this talisman okay?" Cuiyun said, reaching out to touch the talisman attached to the forehead of Xingsha.

"The magic talisman is fine, just try it and you will know." Ye Shaoyang said, raising the talisman with his hand, and sticking it to the back of her head.

At this critical moment, the long hair at the back of Cuiyun's head suddenly spread out to both sides, revealing a ferocious grimace.
