Chapter 1198 Take what you need

Guo Shoucheng is greeting a lot of his distinguished guests, and the status of the people is there, so naturally there are many distinguished guests here.

However, Xiao Peng found a very interesting thing, there are many people here who are people in the cultural circle, what kind of museum director or something, how does this Guo Shoucheng not look like a Confucian businessman?

Guo Sihua was very interested in this Gu Descending: "Brother Xiao, what is going on with Gu Descending?"

Xiao Peng said: "It's witchcraft." You look at the word 'Gu', literally it means 'worm in the abdomen', it is called 'grass ghost' in the Miao area, and the wizard who casts Gu is called 'grass ghost woman', there are records of Gu chaos in all dynasties, because the harm caused by Gu chaos is too great, so 'grass ghost woman' can only go south to avoid chaos, and continue to develop in Southeast Asia, and develop a head reduction on top of Gu art, including what 'raising little ghosts' is developed from Gu art, and Gu art is separated from Maoshan Taoism, so in the final analysis, it is all left over from the Chinese ancestors. ”

Guo Sihua blinked: "Is raising a little ghost also such an evil art?"

Xiao Peng said: "You yourself say it's just 'raising a little ghost', if you really go out to say it, you have to call raising 'Gu Man Tong', and it is divided into Long Po Gu Man Tong and Azan Gu Man Tong, this evil art really does not exist in the orthodox witchcraft records, it belongs to a 'young' spell, it has only a hundred years of history since it appeared, and I have been checking its origin." ”

"You still check this thing?" Guo Sihua's eyes widened.

Xiao Peng smiled bitterly: "Is it idle to be idle?" ”

It's not that he has nothing to do, after all, he is the identity of a 'witch in the middle', and the emergence of a new wizard school naturally needs to understand what is going on. With a new witchcraft like Kuman Thong, he really needs to study it and see what the hell is going on.

Guo Sihua said with a smile: "Brother Xiao, if you use all your energy to make money, you will definitely be the richest man in the world." No wonder you go to the library first when you come to Hong Kong Island。。。。。。 So what did you find?"

Xiao Peng smiled bitterly: "There may be two origins, one is from the 'cat ghost' recorded in the Book of Sui and the Zizhi Tongjian, since the Dugutuo incident in the reign of Emperor Kaihuang of the Sui Dynasty, the art of the cat ghost has been listed as a forbidden art. The "Tang Law Shu Yi" stipulates that all those who create cat ghosts and teach cat ghosts will be hanged, and those whose families know about it and do not report it will be exiled for 3,000 miles! Therefore, the art of cat ghosts has been lost for thousands of years, so I personally tend to have little to do with the art of cat ghosts. ”

"What about the other kind of origin?" asked Guo Sihua.

Xiao Peng went on to explain: "In Tibetan Buddhism, 'Gabala' and Kuman Thong also have similarities. ”

The word 'Gabala' is a Sanskrit word meaning 'skull', and was originally the name of one of the three great achievers of the ancient seals. Legend has it that Gabala used to hunt for a living, but unfortunately his wife and five children died one after another, so he wailed in the cemetery and refused to leave for a long time. And when Master Napojpa saw Gabala, he taught him that the cycle of life and death is a common thing in the world, and it is better to practice hard, and the master also told him the method of cultivation: 'Use the child's bones as the six ornaments, and use the wife's skull as a bowl', Gabala did as the master said, and after practicing for nine years, he became the 84th Mahasiddha to attain enlightenment. And the method of making prayer beads from human bones has been handed down.

There are two kinds of Gabala beads, one is made of the bones of the great monks, and the other is the bones of pregnant women who died of dystocia------ according to the religious customs there, it is a 'sin' for a woman to die in childbirth, and making a human bone rosary is blessed by the monk, which is to atone for the sins of the woman.

The latter is similar to Kuman Thong: it is made from the soul of a child who has had an abortion or died accidentally, and is made with the blessing of a mage, in order to protect the family home and accumulate blessings for himself and future generations.

However, there are also people with unscrupulous intentions who use this Gu Man Tong in the evil way, and Xiao Peng has not had time to verify whether it is useful or not.

Listening to Xiao Peng's words, Guo Sihua's eyes widened: "Brother Xiao, you really study everything." ”

Xiao Peng explained: "That's right, when I was in the country of Stars and Stripes, I met a rapper, what is it called YG? It was the one who wrote a song saying that Chinese people were easy to rob, and he died violently for no reason. I wanted to kill him with my own hands, but he died so violently that I felt useless, so I researched how he died. Then the final conclusion was that he had been hit by Gu Surrender. Then I just took a look at it. ”

"Then are you sure Sichun has Gu Surrender?" Xiao Peng found out that when he and Guo Sihua were chatting, Guo Shoucheng didn't know when he came over, and he was listening to it all the time.

Guo Sihua said: "Dad, after you learn more about Brother Xiao's personality, you won't doubt what Xiao Peng said." ”

Guo Shoucheng hurriedly asked, "Is he still saved now?"

Guo Sihua said with a smile: "Just now Brother Xiao told the story of 'Bian Que saw Cai Huangong', and now he didn't see Sichun turn around and run, which means that Sichun is still saved." ”

Xiao Peng nodded: "But I want him to find a capable person quickly." If you don't take it seriously, you're dead. ”

Guo Shoucheng looked at Guo Sihua and said, "Don't worry about this, your second uncle is out of the way, so they shouldn't take such a thing to heart." ”

Yang Meng asked curiously: "Guo Sihua, why is your second uncle still out of the way?"

Guo Sihua smiled bitterly: "It's hard to say. I'll tell you more when I have time!"

Guo Shoucheng said: "Sihua, you are here to chat with Xiao Xiaoyou, I'll call your second uncle to talk about this matter." ”

Guo Sihua was puzzled and asked, "Dad, what do we care about them?"

Guo Shoucheng frowned and said: "Alas, after all, you can't write two Guo Lai in one stroke, they have been out of the way for so many years, I said that they will definitely suffer retribution." This is retribution. ”

Watching Guo Shoucheng leave with the phone, Xiao Peng smiled and said, "How do I think your family has more troubles than mine?"

Guo Sihua shook his head with a wry smile, and just wanted to speak, when suddenly the door became lively.

The two looked back, yes, this Akiyama Toshiki is finally here, is it really Nima who is a character?

Akiyama Lihui came in surrounded by a group of people, and as soon as he entered the house, his eyes looked left and right, and his eyes lit up after seeing Xiao Peng, but he still respected and understood, and gave the birthday gift first. It's very customary------ a golden pig is sent.

It is very fashionable for Hong Kong people to give gifts here to send gold goods, what kind of golden pigs, golden peaches, metal and the like. Toshiki Akiyama's assistant came in with a golden pig in his arms. But it must be hollow, if it is solid, it is impossible for his assistant to hold such a big golden pig.

I didn't see it, Akiyama Toshiki's reputation was still very high, many people knew him, and a group of people surrounded him to greet him.

It's no wonder that Akiyama Toshiki is not just a carpenter, but also a top rich man. If he was just a carpenter, a lot of people would not be able to bird him, but the top rich man 。。。。。。 Then you have to change your attitude.

Akiyama Lihui was surrounded by people, looking at Xiao Peng but couldn't come. Finally finished greeting everyone, he came to Xiao Peng and did something that surprised everyone------ he bowed to Xiao Peng: "Master!"

Xiao Peng waved his hand: "I'm not your master!"

Akiyama Toshiki hurriedly said: "I know, I know, you are my 'parent'!"

Xiao Peng's big mouth was about to slap him directly in the face after hearing this.

What does it mean to be a parent? In the Japanese language, the word "parent" means both "father" and "master."

Just like the famous Japanese director Takeshi Kitano, he set up an acting studio of his own. Nominally, he is the president of the performing arts company, but all his members have to respectfully call him 'pro-divided'.

The tradition of master and apprentice on the Wa side is much stricter than that on the Chinese side.

For example, the 'Wakoku ramen' that can be seen everywhere in China is almost not authentic. The reason why I say this is because there is an unwritten rule in the Japanese ramen industry that no matter how old an apprentice is, as long as he goes to be an apprentice, the master will be in charge of food and housing for three years, and he will not be paid. Although this violates the labor law, no one complains, and the Japanese government does not care, which is also a tradition.

After three years, if the master is successful in any of his studies, then the apprentice is allowed to go out and open a shop independently. Even if the apprentice goes out to open a store, he must respectfully invite his master to go to the scene to check his shop and craftsmanship, if there is no master present, it means that the master does not recognize the apprentice. If the apprentice wants to fight against the master, he will be despised by his peers and even banned by the industry organization!

And Akiyama Toshiki directly put on a posture to be Xiao Peng's apprentice, he didn't care about any salary. Is he short of money? He wants Xiao Peng's technology right now.

Xiao Peng covered his face: "Akiyama Lihui, if you don't want to be embarrassed, I still want to be embarrassed! Today, so many people have come to celebrate Uncle Guo's 60th birthday, and you are here to apprentice? What kind of limelight are you stealing!"

Akiyama Toshiki said: "Master, Akiyama Toshiki only wants to learn advanced techniques. Of course, I know that there must be an apprenticeship ceremony. Akiyama Toshiki took out a USB flash drive: "Master, this is all the information in my hand." ”

Xiao Peng looked at the USB flash drive: "Are you exchanging conditions with me?"

Akiyama Toshiki hurriedly shook his head: "Of course I don't mean that, I really want to learn the master's craft, so I made this decision!"

Xiao Peng looked at Akiyama Lihui for a long time, shook his head, and took out a handwritten book from his pocket: "Okay, let's not say anything, don't you engage in those vain heads, don't you just want this?" I can give it to you, but whether you can learn it or not has nothing to do with me, don't worship me as a teacher, and I won't accept you as an apprentice." In the future, the two of us will take your Yangguan Road, and I will take my single-plank bridge!"
