Prehistoric Notes

Chapter 215 witchcraft

"We are going to hold a corpse-turning festival tomorrow, and you must also attend! Anyone who is a hundred miles around here will be haunted if they don't participate in this celebration. Everyone must pay 50 gold coins to the great wizard," Moani's father said with a sad face.

This festival is held every two years, and almost emptying his family. He had to open a bar and a small hotel. The carefree days became sad. The closer the corpse festival is, the more uneasy the people who don't have enough money.

The last time at the corpse-turning festival, the neighbor Dallas family didn't make enough, and his son was pulled into two pieces by ghosts at night and hung on the branches of the bread tree.

Moani's father was short of two gold coins this year, but he just received these guests and just collected 150 gold coins, so the couple were very happy.

"Wow, everyone has 50 gold coins. If it is in the Golden City, it is enough to take any floor tile, but where can we find so many gold coins now?" Acuo shook his head and smiled.

"Oh, then you are really dead! If you hadn't run away quickly and get out of here a hundred miles away," Moyani's father said sympathetically.

"Haha, what a horrible corpse turning festival, we have to see it." Liu Peng laughed, and everyone also laughed. This group of people have never seen any big storms and waves. How can a little ghost scare them?

Moani's father shook his head and felt that these foreigners really didn't know how powerful they were. Moani observed the "two dogs" and Samolin beasts at the door for a long time and ran in and said to Xiaopei, "Sister, what's the name of that monster?"

Liu Peng touched her head and smiled, "That's not a monster. It's a mythical beast, called Samolin Beast."

"Brother, brother! Can you let me ride the Samorin beast? Moani smiled and pleaded, who would refuse a child's innocent smile? Liu Peng nodded with a smile, took the little girl's hand and walked out.

Samolin beast whirlwind generally carried Moyani and Liu Peng on the avenue full of huge bread trees on both sides, ran back and forth, and stopped at the door of the bar.

Moani jumped happily and came in with Liu Peng. Suddenly, she thought of something and said to Liu Peng, "You can't hand over gold coins, then you will die tomorrow. Samolin Beast is mine. That's great!" The little girl looked at Liu Peng innocently and didn't realize that her words would hurt others.

Liu Peng was a little surprised, but immediately felt that the child's mouth was unobstructed, so he didn't care. However, Moani's parents were very angry. They were ashamed of their daughter's rude words and forced her to apologize to Liu Peng.

Seeing the girl who apologized with tears in her eyes, Liu Peng was so soft-hearted that he took out the candy from her pocket and handed it to her. Moyani wiped her tears and whispered the candy handed over, "I'm sorry, brother, I'm wrong!"

Liu Peng laughed and said, "Ha ha, don't cry, brother will forgive you." Xiaopei also walked over and took out a veil to dry the tears on her face.

The next day, people gathered in the cemetery. Zhou Xirui and several people stood in the crowd and heard Moani's father say, "The Overturning of the Body Festival is held once every two years. It was only when a great wizard named Nanmajia came here and began to implement it. It has been held for more than ten years.

The time of the deceased's unearthing will be selected in the dry season for health needs, and the specific date will be different each time, and will be selected by Nanmaga.

When the corpse turning ceremony is held, under the wizard's spell, the body will crawl out of the excavated grave and act as if it were alive.

"Doesn't it sound like a zombie? It's so scary." Tana was a little scared and pale. Atso quickly pulled her into his arms.

Sure enough, a wizard in black and a beard appeared on the high platform. While practicing spells, he asked people to carry a large basket of gold coins, and people lined up to throw gold coins in.

All the graves were dug up by their relatives. Sure enough, the bodies crawled out. The whole scene seemed to be in hell. The bodies stood with the living people to wrap themselves up with sackcloth, and then lined up in a huge parade surrounded by everyone.

During this period, the dead and the living, men and women will sing and dance, and the scenes are scary and noisy. The more lively the concept here is, the more respect the dead will be. Finally, the dead line up and return to the cemetery (sometimes a new cemetery) will be replaced with a new shroud.

The dead lay in the pit again. When they were buried, according to the custom, the dead turned over seven times under the control of the spell, and finally sealed the earth by the living relatives. Moani's father said that their attention and appearance to the "turn over the body" ceremony was as good as the burial that year.

"This is black witchcraft!" Xiaopei told everyone: "Wizards who know black witchcraft are a group of utilitarians who do not hesitate to sell their souls to the devil, and they will do whatever they can to achieve their goals."
