The truth of witchcraft in Xiangxi
The witchcraft in Xiangxi included the phenomenon of corpse driving, releasing Gu and Luohua Cave Girl. As for corpse herding, due to the inconvenient transportation in the mountainous area of Xiangxi and the traditional concept of transporting corpses back to their hometown for burial, the industry of corpse herding appeared. Legend had it that a mage in a Taoist robe would lead the way in front of the corpse and "bring" the corpse, which was tied together by a straw rope, back to its hometown. However, in fact, no one could pinpoint the true situation of corpse herding. The so-called corpse herder using cats to make corpses jump lacked credibility. In terms of releasing gu, the legendary creation of gu was to put many kinds of poisonous insects in the same container and let them kill each other. In the end, the gu was left. In history, Gu could be traced back to the period of oracle bone inscriptions more than 3000 years ago. There were many legends of Gu in the Miao people of Xiangxi, and there was a tradition of passing it on to women but not men. Legend had it that Miao girls would use love voodoo on unfaithful men, but from the perspective of modern medicine, the so-called symptoms of voodoo were mostly manifestations of chronic diseases or mental illnesses. In the past, because traditional medicine was backward, these diseases were attributed to voodoo. In fact, although there were people in Xiangxi who made and released gu in the past, it was not as terrifying as described in legends and movies. The Luohua Cave Girl referred to a young girl in the Miao village of Xiangxi who lost her mind in the water and died of depression in silence. In general, most of the witchcraft in Xiangxi was mystified. Some of the phenomena could be explained by local culture, geographical environment, etc. However, many of the contents lacked scientific basis. It was more of a cultural legend and mysterious cultural phenomenon. While waiting for the TV series, you can also click on the link below to read the classic original work of "Dafeng Nightwatchman"!
Xiangxi witchcraft
Witchcraft Xiangxi
The witchcraft of Xiangxi was a balance beam that should be used to adjust social relations under a specific cultural background. In Xiangxi, there were three great evil arts,"releasing voodoo","chasing corpses", and "Luohua Cave Girl". Among them,"releasing voodoo" had a long history and was full of mystery. The common method of making Gu was to put a variety of poisonous insects such as centipedes, scorpions, spiders, etc. into a container. If they were not fed, they would kill each other. The last thing left would be the Gu worm. This method was also introduced in the fourth part of the Compendium of Materia Medica. There was also the saying that after a hundred insects were put into a jar and opened for a year, the remaining insect would eat all the other insects. This insect was called a Gu. In the Miao people of Xiangxi, there was a tradition of passing the curse on to the female instead of the male. Initially, it was used by the Miao women to protect themselves and take revenge on the heartless man. For example, if they used the love gu on the man, the man would be ill for a long time after leaving. Only by changing his mind and getting back together with the Miao woman could the gu go dormant again. Otherwise, the gu poison would act up and kill them. Later on, the range of its use expanded, as long as there was a conflict, it could be used. There were many incidents related to witchcraft in history, such as the "Witch's Curse" in the later years of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which implicated hundreds of thousands of people and affected the political situation of the Western Han Dynasty. There were also many stories of people being poisoned in Xiangxi. For example, the landlord's wife, Tang Shi, was poisoned with ant poison. After her death, her head was eaten by ants, and Gao Jun, a villager, was suspected of being poisoned. However, from the perspective of modern medicine, many so-called symptoms of Gu poison could be caused by chronic diseases or mental illnesses such as the lungs, stomach, and liver. In the 1950s, Xiangxi carried out an operation to eliminate the "gu poison". They confiscated the utensils and books used to make the gu poison, organized the gu women to learn and modify them, and tested the poison powder in the laboratory to be non-toxic.

Reveal the Witchcraft of Xiangxi
Xiangxi witchcraft contains many mysterious phenomena. The following are the secrets for you: - [Venomous Insect]: Legend has it that only women have venomous insects. They put a variety of poisonous insects in the same object and let them eat each other. The only surviving insect is the insect. Gu could have a form, but some people thought that they were mysterious objects that could change and come and go without a trace. The creator could use spells to remotely control Gu worms to bring illness or even death to the target. They could also control others, but most of the witchcraft techniques were only legends. From a modern scientific point of view, there was no evidence that the Gu worms were not afraid of guns or could control others after they were nurtured. The so-called symptoms of Gu worms could be caused by poisoning or infection by bacteria, viruses, and parasites on poisonous insects. Although ancient medical books such as the Compendium of Materia Medica had symptoms and treatment prescriptions, and many dynasties in history had listed the release of gu as a serious crime, no one in modern times had ever seen the real legendary gu technique. - [Corpse Hunting Technique: Xiangxi corpse hunting originated from the concept that people who died in a foreign land had to be buried in their hometown.] Due to the mountainous terrain in Xiangxi, it was difficult to transport corpses, so the corpse industry was born. Corpse herders usually wore Taoist robes and led the way in front of the corpses instead of behind them. They would beat the gong to make the Night Walkers avoid them. The corpses were often connected with straw ropes, one every six or seven feet. Corpse Transporters had requirements for disciples, such as courage, good physical fitness, ugly appearance, and so on. They had to learn how to deal with the remains, such as sticking a charm on the forehead of the remains, wearing a bamboo hat to reduce insect bites and decomposition, and using cinnabar and other anti-corrosion methods. There was a rule of " three chases and three no chases " for corpse herding, but it was now considered superstitious behavior, and no one could accurately point out the true situation of corpse herding in Xiangxi. - [Chicken-fixing Spell: A spell in the Witchcraft culture. Through a mysterious ritual and incantation, a lively rooster can be stunned on the spot. Even if it is provoked or heard the sound of firecrackers, it will not be moved until the caster puts away the rooster.] - [Luohua Cave Girl]: A young girl in a Miao village in Xiangxi lost her mind in the water and eventually died of depression.

Xiangxi witchcraft immortal combined bamboo secret
The Xiangxi witchcraft immortal bamboo was a unique skill of the Miao tribe. Through the wizard's incantation and specific movements, two bamboo pieces could magically and slowly merge together. This skill was widely performed in Xiangxi for tourists to watch and charge a fee. However, some people thought that this was just a deceptive performance, because the thinner and longer the bamboo piece, the higher the success rate. As for the specific principle, some people said that it used human breathing, but there was no conclusive scientific explanation. The witchcraft of Xiangxi, the immortal combined with bamboo, had always been regarded as a mysterious cultural phenomenon, and it was still an unsolved mystery.
Xiangxi witchcraft, the principle of the scale pole and Timmy
The principle of this Xiangxi witchcraft was as follows: The performer sprayed water on the scale and inserted it into the jar containing the rice. After waiting for a few minutes (there may be some ritual movements such as chanting spells), he would lift the scale with his hand (thumb up) to lift the rice and the jar together. From a scientific point of view, the principle was similar to the chopsticks and rice experiment. In the experiment, after adding water, the rice absorbed the water and expanded, causing the rice to transmit pressure to the scale bar. The rice around the scale bar expanded and then shrank inward, pressing down on the scale bar and transferring the rice to the jar. Then, when the scale bar was directly lifted, the rice jar would be lifted together. In addition, the small opening of the jar was conducive to the rice absorbing water to expand and compress, so that the rice jar could be lifted up by the weighing rod when it was lifted up. This was because only the pressure transmitted in this way could be counteracted by the jar wall at the narrowed opening of the jar to the rice and then to the weighing rod. However, it was more difficult to achieve this phenomenon with a jar with a large opening.

The truth of the mystery of chasing corpses in Xiangxi
The truth of the corpse drive in Xiangxi was still controversial. Corpse herding was a legendary act. It was said that the corpse herder could use a spell to drive the corpse to walk. The legend of corpse chasing in Xiangxi area is related to Miao culture. The methods of corpse transportation included dismemberment and complete corpse transportation. The complete corpse transportation required the corpse carrier to carry the entire corpse back to their hometown, which was very difficult. The purpose of the corpse drive was to let the souls of the people who died in the foreign land return to their hometown and let them rest in peace. However, there was no scientific proof of the existence of corpse herding, nor had there been any evidence of corpse herding. Therefore, the truth about the corpse drive in Xiangxi was still a mystery.

Witchcraft Belief and Witchcraft Ritual
Witch belief was a primitive form of religious belief that emphasized communication with gods and the use of mysterious power. Wizards and witches played the role of a medium connecting humans and gods, performing ritual activities such as sacrifice and divination. Witchcraft rituals were activities that attempted to influence or control certain people and things with the help of supernatural mysterious forces under the witch belief system. For example, the Yi people would adopt witchcraft rituals to exorcise ghosts, eliminate disasters, and receive blessings, so as to avoid disasters brought by ghosts. In some ethnic building rituals, there would also be wizards or craftsmen who performed divination (such as reading chicken divinations) and regarded specific phenomena as oracles. These were the manifestations of witchcraft rituals in different scenarios.
