Is the folk chicken-trimming technique true?
Here is a report, you will know after reading it: an ordinary rooster, an ancient spell and several mysterious spells can pick up the chicken in an instant. No matter how you touch it, how you scratch it and how you scare it, it won't move. This stunt is a skill used by wizards popular in Xiangxi, Hunan Province. This skill is called chicken repair. The reporter went to Gaowu Village, Jiwei Town, Huayuan County, Hunan Province. It is understood that there is a wizard named Long Jiayou in the village who can order chicken. He can put the chicken on the firewood and on the ground, and the chicken will not run when setting off firecrackers. Master Long's home is near the village. He is 38 years old and an ordinary farmer. His magic was handed down from his ancestors. He is not picky about the chicken he wants. He just wants reporters to go to the village and grab any one. After the chicken was caught, the performance began. In order to prevent Master Long from messing with the chicken, the photographer followed him all the time. Judging from Master Long's actions, he seems to think that ordering chicken is a very common thing. He just took out a wood knife and a bowl from the kitchen, filled it with water and began to order chicken. "Even if we set off firecrackers in the future, it won't run." Master Long said. The wooden knife for fixing chickens is usually used by Master Long when cutting wood. It is very sharp. "Settle down? That's settled. Are you ready to order? Yes. " Inadvertently, the chicken really stopped. In the sound of firecrackers, the chicken seemed to have lost its just glory and stood meekly on the firewood knife, which made the reporter puzzled. So, what exactly does a wizard use to hold a chicken? Did you give the chicken medicine before ordering? But judging from the field records, this possibility can be ruled out. What could that be? "This spell is a complete spell. Say it three times and set the chicken there, and it won't fly there. " What is the content of the spell? Long Jiayou explained: "I can't run with one stroke, I can't walk with two strokes, I can't stand on the ground with three strokes, I can't move and I can't scream." A positive pressure is a thousand evils. It can't leave after listening. " Why did the old dragon repeatedly emphasize the existence of spells? According to the records of the scene, they didn't do much for the chicken except touching it with their hands and spraying water on it. What caused the chicken to be stopped? Professor of Zoology, Huaihua University, Hunan Province explained that the effect of these actions should be said to give the chicken a relatively safe and comfortable feeling, so it will not be afraid and can be pushed around by others. When it is shaken, it changes a mechanism in the inner ear of chicken, called semicircular canal, and the balance of liquid is broken. Animals will find it difficult to adjust their balance and fall easily, which makes chickens afraid to move on it, but keep a fixed posture. Animals stand on the blade, the blade is very thin, and the balance of the body is difficult to adjust. Therefore, in this case, the whole chicken will be in a state of high tension and emergency. After it loses this sense of balance, its first reaction is to keep balance, so this posture means that the body does not move. If you set off firecrackers, it will be a strong threat at first, so its instinctive reaction is of course to run away. This is a defensive behavioral response. Then why didn't you run again? This is an adaptation process. On the other hand, it is precisely because of this adaptation that it is not so keen to respond to this stimulus. At this time, the chicken's main energy is focused on how to stand on the blade to maintain balance. Coming out of Huaihua University, the reporter came to a village. With the help of fellow villagers, I finally caught a rooster. Imitating the actions of the wizards, the reporter began to order chicken. Follow the steps, shake it a few times before touching it. The chicken will be ready soon. Throw a stone to scare you, and there is no response. Shake the chair again, but it won't move Watching the villagers yelling at one side, the chickens stopped running. From this perspective, ordering chicken is really easy. But making butyl mysterious does not mean that wizards are fooling people, because it is a unique witchcraft culture that has been passed down in Xiangxi for thousands of years.
