Chapter 3 The Weird Tattoo Parlor Set Sail
Fortunately, Granny Bai raised her hand to lift the blanket and put it back on Boss Hei's back. After covering up Guan Yu's tattoo, the incandescent lights in the room returned to normal.
Boss Jin was not surprised by this, and even called it evil. When he saw this tattoo earlier, strange things happened frequently. When he saw Guan Yu's murderous eyes, he didn't dare to step forward and look directly at him.
Not to mention washing. After saying that, he knelt down to Granny Bai on the spot and begged her to help no matter what.
Granny Bai said: "Actually, this is not difficult at all!"
With that said, Boss Jin asked Boss Jin to prepare incense candles, yellow paper and cinnabar, and a bowl of rice.
After Boss Jin had prepared these things, Granny Bai took a brush and filled it with cinnabar to draw. She fumbled and drew a bust on the yellow paper.
It can be seen from the painting that it is an old man over seventy years old, with a long beard covering his face, and the painting is lifelike.
Boss Jin was amazed by this, but he quickly changed the subject and asked Granny Bai which ghost and god she painted.
Waiting for Granny Bai to put away her pen and say: "Huang Hansheng!"
"Who is Huang Hansheng?" Boss Jin, as a tattoo shop owner, seems to have never heard of this name.
I had no choice but to remind: "Huang Hansheng is Huang Zhong!"
"Hey," Boss Jin complained, "if you just say Huang Zhong, wouldn't I know?"
Granny Bai didn't bother to pay attention to him at all. She knelt down, lit incense and candles, and burned the Ming coins in front of the tattoo table. She kept talking plausibly until the Ming coins were burned into paper ashes.
Later, Granny Bai asked me to stand on the tattoo table, holding a yellow paper portrait facing Boss Hei's back. When Granny Bai casually pulled away the blanket on Boss Hei's back, at that moment, the tattooed Guan Yu appeared in front of me again.
, the angle I was leaning over to look at made me completely numb. I felt that Guan Yu, who was behind me, was holding a Guan Dao in his smoky breath, and was about to jump out from behind. I was really frightened.
: "Grandma Bai, I, I'm afraid!"
"What's there to be afraid of?" Granny Bai said, "I use yellow paper as the base, and the cinnabar opens the spirit. This can channel the spirit and invite the true face of the painting... As soon as Huang Zhong arrives, Guan Yu will close his eyes!"
Granny Bai then picked up the rice bowl and muttered in an eerie voice: "If the soul has a hell, it must use rice. Rice can open the path of Yin and Yang, and... pat, it can open the gate of hell."
As Granny Bai's voice fell, she raised her hand and started throwing rice. The entire tattoo room was surprisingly silent. The sound of the rice bouncing clearly reached my ears.
With the sound of those rice grains, I only felt my ear drums numb. Grandma Bai threw the last handful of rice grains in front of my eyes. The rice grains bounced in front of my eyes, like a hypnotic shaking bell. My eyes couldn't help but stare at the shaking rice grains.
People become drowsy and their eyelids gradually begin to droop.
Just when I was about to fall asleep, a gust of wind blew up behind me, and there seemed to be an auditory hallucination in my ears: "Under the Nine Springs, I want to ask Yun Chang whether he will accept the title of Lord Commander of the Five Tigers...
Will he accept it or not?"
"Who is talking?" I was suddenly startled, and wanted to turn around after hearing the sound... But at this moment, Granny Bai grabbed me nervously: "Close your eyes and never look back. Remember, mortals have shoulders.
Yang lanterns, ghosts cannot invade the body if the yang lanterns enter the body. Turning around in the middle of the night, the lanterns are easily extinguished. Once the yang lanterns are extinguished, life is hard to find."
"Grandma Bai," I murmured drowsily, "the more you talk, the more scared I feel!"
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, close your eyes and go to sleep." Grandma Bai patted my back, and her soft call was like a lullaby, which made my eyelids sink and I fell asleep immediately.
Maybe it was what I was thinking before going to bed, so after I fell asleep, I actually dreamed of the plot in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. I vaguely remembered that in the book, Huang Zhong appeared in Chapter 53, and Liu Bei won a great victory in the Battle of Chibi.
, when he took the opportunity to seize the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River, Huang Zhong guarded Changshan County. Zhuge Liang originally gave Guan Yu two thousand troops to attack Changshan County.
However, Guan Yu was arrogant and looked down on the veteran Huang Zhong, so he only led 500 swordsmen to attack the city. When Huang Zhong fought, Guan Yu defeated Huang Zhong by dragging his sword.
After Huang Zhong was defeated, he only wanted death. However, Guan Yu disdainfully claimed that his sword would never kill the young or old. Then he let Huang Zhong go.
The next day, Huang Zhong planned to lure Guan Yu. In order to repay Guan Yu for not killing him, he used his bow and arrow to shoot only Guan Yu's helmet tassel. He spared Guan Yu's horse and repaid Guan Yu's favor.
For this reason, the prefect Han Xuan suspected that Huang Zhong had second thoughts and wanted to behead Huang Zhong. However, Wei Yan robbed him and Han Xuan was killed. Huang Zhong and Wei Yancai surrendered together.
After that, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan followed Liu Bei into Sichuan to fight and made many military exploits. During the Battle of Hanzhong, Huang Zhong, with the help of Fazheng, cut Cao Wei general Xia Houyuan in two at Dingjun Mountain and took advantage of the victory to capture Tiandang Mountain.
After Huang Zhong followed Liu Bei and made many outstanding achievements, he was named the Commander of the Five Tigers by Liu Bei. Even later generations commented that Huang Zhong was well-deserved as the Commander of the Five Tigers! Unfortunately, Guan Yu was arrogant and disdainful. When the name of the Commander of the Five Tigers was announced,
He also threatened that a man would not associate with old soldiers.
In the end, Zhuge Liang wrote a letter to persuade Huang Zhong, but Guan Yu had people copy the letter and circulate it to the soldiers. He even called Huang Zhong an old soldier many times, humiliating Huang Zhong.
Throughout Guan Yu's life, he looked down on Huang Zhong.
I couldn't help but wonder in my dream, could it be that it was simply because Guan Yu was arrogant and looked down upon Huang Zhong that Granny Bai thought of using Huang Zhong to make Guan Yu close his eyes?
