Chapter 52 Worship

Candles and incense were rare things in Zhu Jue's previous life, but he didn't expect to see them on the road next to the mountain today.

These two objects may be nothing separately, but as long as they are put together, it is no surprise that they are a kind of decoration with some sacrificial significance.

To worship ancestors, ask the Kitchen God or a certain construction site to start work.

Plug it on the roadside and worship the mountain god towards Fangdou Mountain?

I walked back along the road and stood on the edge of the stone pile. I saw the car passing by before, but it was only a quick glance. Only now I saw what this somewhat unfashionable altar looked like.

There are several flat stones piled up, with incense sticks and candles inserted in front. On the ground between them is a triangular bone piece painted black, with a strange symbol painted on it with white powder. .

"He Ye, please help me find out what this kind of altar means."

After taking a photo and sending it back, Zhu Jue didn't know much about this type of sacrificial ceremony.

Heye on the other side was stunned when he received the photo. He seemed to think of something for a while, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

"This should be some kind of ritual, maybe folk customs or something like that. But this triangular bone fragment is very strange. It should be a sacrificial tool, but the symbols on it cannot be found on the Internet. It looks a bit like graffiti or random drawings. "

I cut out the picture and performed a similar search, but no new information appeared.

"Graffiti?"

Zhu Jue didn't think so. He bent down and reached out to pick up the triangular bone piece on the ground, wanting to see what material it was made of up close.

He doesn't care whether it's offensive or not. Since the thing is here, someone must have taken it. If others can take it, of course he can take it too.

Phew~

The sound breaks through the air!

Zhu Jue, who had just bent down, suddenly stepped onto the stage with his right hand, as if the sky spirit cap had grown eyes and forcibly caught something thrown from the mountain.

A stone still stained with dirt and dead grass.

Looking up, there is a fault nearly 3 meters above the ground in front of me. It should have been deliberately cut like this when the road was built to prevent broken wood and debris from the mountain from falling down the slope and causing adverse effects on the road. .

At this time, in the woods on the fault, there was a man wearing a brown coat and a hood looking down here.

"Throwing stones is not a good habit. Even if it doesn't hit anyone, it's not good if it hits flowers and plants."

Holding the stone in his hand, Zhu Jue stared at the man, looking at the distance and angle. He was the one who smashed the stone just now.

warn?

The person on the other side didn't respond, and the two just looked at each other up and down.

One eye is hidden under the hood, and the other is hidden behind sunglasses.

The other party's actions in the next second made Zhu Jue's face suddenly darken.

I saw him moving his hands in strange postures on his chest, and the final movement was to clasp his hands together and bow forward.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the action of putting hands together is a common action when asking for help, and is often accompanied by a small sway.

But the person in the woods followed this action of joining hands with a ninety-degree bow!

The meaning completely changed.

When is this posture most common?

Go to the grave!

The moment the man in front of him made this action, Zhu Jue was sensitive to something strange. It was as if there was some kind of existence staring at him in the weeds on the roadside, among the branches of the mountain forest, or behind the road signs on the edge of the road behind him. Got on myself.

If it were other people, they might have just cursed each other for a while, and they might have thought that the other person was disgusting with them, but who made Zhu Jue special?

This guy is definitely not an ordinary person!

"Worship me? Looking for death!"

Throw down your hiking bag and take three steps forward.

Zhu Jue couldn't guarantee that he could jump directly onto the three-meter-high geological fault, but there were many protruding rocks on the fault. If he got close, he could use his strength to triple jump, like a nimble gazelle, chasing straight up the mountain. That person.

The man on the mountain didn't expect that the random person he met on the roadside could be so aggressive, climbing up to a height of more than three meters.

Looking at Zhu Jue who suddenly appeared in front of him, he stepped back continuously.

"Wasn't it quite mysterious just now? Why, are you scared now? Why don't you show me another one?"

The hands were folded together, and the joints creaked.

"No, how can I worship you? I was just worshiping the mountain god just now and didn't want him to be angry."

With a childish voice, the hood on her head was taken off, her black hair was shawl, only tied at the end with a red rope, and a young girl with a fair face appeared in front of her.

"Didn't you throw the stone just now?"

Zhu Jue narrowed his eyes and asked immediately.

"I threw it. I did it when I saw you trying to destroy the altar. This is our custom here in Fangdoushan. If the altar is destroyed, we will be in trouble."

The logic is clear, the reason is legitimate, and with that cute face, other men would have nodded in approval at this time, and then waved their hands to express that they had misunderstood.

Put on a magnanimous look and secretly look forward to a "chance encounter" with this little beauty next time.

Bang!

The fist grazed her face, and the wind caused by the punch wiped away the smile on the girl's face. She punched the tree trunk next to her, knocking down a pile of scattered dead leaves and branches.

The current posture is that Zhu Jueshu banged the girl in front of him, but there is no ambiguous atmosphere between the two, but the dangerous atmosphere is quite strong.

"Tell me, what is the altar down there for? Otherwise, the next punch might be your head. It's very cruel!"

Zhu Jue had already turned off the video recording function of his sunglasses, and even the communication with He Ye.

This paragraph is not suitable for broadcasting. He is a law-abiding citizen.

"I do not know what you're talking about."

The girl suddenly lowered her head and rushed towards the fault. Zhu Jue turned around to chase, but found that her speed was not slow. She was already on the edge, and this guy actually jumped down without any hesitation.

On the road ahead, a tour bus was passing by.

"Stop the car quickly, someone seems to have fallen over there!"

The people on the bus were the young men and women Zhu Jue had seen at the high-speed train station before.

"Xiao Gao, go over and take a look."

The girl sitting in the passenger seat patted the arm of the person next to her, who quickly stopped the car and ran over to the two young men in the back seat.

After helping the person up, she discovered that she was actually a sweet-looking girl.

"Are you OK?"

Holding the girl's shoulders, the man who was previously called Xiao Gao didn't mind the dirt on the ground at this time.

"My legs seem to be sprained. They were on top just now."

He raised his eyes and looked up, only to find that the man just now was nowhere to be seen, so he quickly changed his words,

"I accidentally sprained my foot and fell down. Can you take me back to town? I will thank you!"

The girl clasped her hands together and nodded to the people around her.

"Of course, I'll carry you."

Carrying a girl, the emphasis is on a beautiful girl, why wouldn't you want to?

But when they turned to leave, they didn't notice that the white smoke from the incense sticks in the small altar behind was clinging to their coats in a sudden gust of wind.
