Chapter 19 The Secret Technique of Suppressing Evil

I took a deep breath, and then opened the rough old book. Two pages inside were yellowed and peeled off. They were sandwiched in the book, but they were still intact.

I opened it and glanced at it, my eyes suddenly shrank, and I found that it was all filled with folk magic methods, and it was divided into three chapters.

I took a cursory look at the page. The first twenty or so pages were filled with some weird folk magic, and then there were chapters.

The words and pictures in the book were all written with a black brush, not printed. They should be all secrets that are not passed down. There are many strange things that dazzled me.

The snake-repelling talismans left by my grandma should have come from this book. I flipped through a few pages and took a look.

It was found that there are many types of talismans, the most common ones are paper talismans, and hand talismans, which are drawn on the hands with blood from the tip of the tongue or fingertips. There are also many types of earth talismans, sky talismans, and yin and yang talismans.

The runes are made of cinnabar, realgar, chicken blood, bletilla and other intoxicating drugs, spells and energy.

After watching it for a long time, I really had a headache, so I lay on the bed and fell asleep.

It was already noon when I woke up. I didn't know what my aunt was doing, but there was still hot rice in the pot, so I was in a good mood.

But halfway through the meal, my aunt opened the door and barged in. Her face was pale and she was sweating profusely.

I saw that she looked panicked and her hair was a little messy, so I quickly asked what happened.

The aunt gasped and said: "Your mother-in-law is crazy!"

Ma's wife is Wang Mazi's wife.

Although a shocking incident occurred in the Snake Cave the day before yesterday, fortunately there were no casualties among the villagers, and Wang Mazi's body was later brought back by the village chief.

A funeral was being held at this time, and my aunt said that Mrs. Ma suddenly went crazy and became like a snake, crawling around on the ground. She also had a very bad temper if anyone touched her.

Madam Ma would hiss like a giant python and even open her mouth to bite people, even her own baby.

"Go and have a look!" Chu Yuan's voice came out in his ears.

I also thought about the many strange anomalies that were circulating in the village before Wang Mazi's accident two days ago, and felt that this was inappropriate.

"I'll go over and take a look."

I stood up and said to my aunt.

My aunt grabbed my hand and said, "The village says she is possessed by a snake spirit, so don't go."

"I'll take a look and come back." After I said to my aunt, I hurried out of the courtyard.

When we walked to the village road, we saw from a distance that the front door of Wang Mazi's house was surrounded by villagers. They all looked panicked at this moment, but the noise had already started, mixed with the cries of children.

I arrived at Wang Mazi's house, but before I even entered the door, I was frightened and shuddered by what I saw.

There was still a coffin in the hall, and Wang Mazi's wife was seen curled up on the ground, her body squirming, and her hands tightly holding the soul-inducing chicken placed in front of the coffin.

And it was biting hard, and several people in the village tried to pull and persuade it, but it was of no use. They could only watch Madam Ma bite the chicken alive.

She didn't care about the chicken blood and feathers around her mouth, which made me feel sick in my stomach.

Ma's wife, who was curled up and crawling on the ground, looked like a snake with a human body. Rumors spread like wild beasts, and everyone said that Ma's wife was possessed by a snake spirit.

Although I don't have much ability, after reading the book yesterday, I learned more or less something.

There is no evil in Wang Mazi's wife, and her body and face are the same as those of normal people. Although she behaves strangely, she does not provoke unclean things.

This does not belong to the category of metaphysics. Her aura is still there and stable. She has no illness or disaster. She has never been harmed by dirty things, so she is so crazy.

What I didn't expect was that while I was still thinking about what I read in the book yesterday, the most terrifying scene happened!

Madam Ma, who was grabbing the big cock and biting it at the door of the hall, turned her head without any warning and stared at me blankly.

A weird smile appeared on her blood-stained face, and she twisted her body and slowly crawled towards me like a snake.

This scene frightened everyone at the entrance of the courtyard into madness, and they all screamed and backed away.

A cold sweat broke out on my forehead, but my feet felt like they were rooted to the ground and I couldn't move forward.

Gritting her teeth, swallowing a mouthful of saliva, she forced herself to stare at Mrs. Ma crawling over, her heart almost jumping out of her throat.

When she got close to the courtyard gate, Mrs. Ma stopped, tilted her head and looked at me with a weird smile. After staring for a while, she suddenly said quietly.

"Do you want to know why I'm crazy?"

Her voice is as low as a death knell, like a song from hell, ethereal and sinister.

I was so scared that the back of my neck exploded! Somehow, my sixth sense told me that something very bad was about to happen!

I asked tremblingly: "Why...why are you crazy?"

Mrs. Ma waved to me: "Come here and I'll tell you."

At that time, I felt as if I was possessed by a demon. I hesitated for a moment and accidentally put my ear to her mouth.

Mrs. Ma said to me word by word:

"You go ask the snake."

???

These words contained some indescribable sinister malice. I got goosebumps all over my body when I heard them, and I looked at her in astonishment.

"You...what do you mean?"

"You go ask the snake."

After saying that, Mrs. Ma smiled secretly at me and licked the chicken blood on her lips, looking like she was enjoying it.

Go ask the snake, how should you understand this sentence?

If I catch a snake, can I find out why she is crazy?

I didn't dare to think about it anymore. At that moment, I seemed to have fallen into a gloomy and miserable world. I thought of the hellish scene in my dream that day when all the villagers in the village turned into snakes.

Just when a layer of cold sweat broke out on my back, Chu Yuan said in my ear: "Look at her shadow!"

Only then did I see that Mrs. Ma’s shadow was a little twisted and stretched out, vaguely like a snake.

Chu Yuan said: "She is not crazy!"

I was secretly surprised, but then I gritted my teeth, took out two snake-repelling talismans, took two steps forward, and tried to drive away the snakes.

But Mrs. Ma is not the Zhang Xianren from the night before yesterday. She is alive now, and she seems to be very afraid of the snake-repelling talisman in my hand.

As soon as I took it out, she stared at me with evil eyes. Her tongue became enlarged and she kept swallowing it from her mouth, making faint hissing sounds.

Just like a snake that quickly spits out its tongue when it encounters danger.

While spitting out snakes, I twisted my body and retreated. Seeing this scene, cold sweat broke out on my forehead, but I still managed to move forward.

There was no way to retreat, Madam Ma suddenly went crazy and pounced on me, grabbed my hair, took out a short knife from her pocket and was about to stab me.

Everything happened so fast that no one could react, but luckily I reacted quickly enough and grabbed her wrist.

"You crazy woman, what do you want to do?!" I slapped Mrs. Ma on the face.

Mrs. Ma looked at me with wide eyes, as if she was possessed by a demon and wanted to fight back: "Death! Die! I'll stab you to death, stab you!"
