Do you have any dreams that you can't fulfill?

You want to win at the gambling table with fairy’s help?

Do you want to engage in speculative business and make a fortune?

Are you worrying about being murdered by your enemy because of your special status or any accidental disasters might fall on you?

Do you have a hatred enemy need to revenge?

Does your beloved one turn to others? ......

If you have the above issues and can't get solved  them under the normal channels of society, then it merges the wishes to seek black magic way and even the power of the sidelines to help you fulfill your wishes.   Highly possible, you would seek mysterious wizards help in the South Asia region. Of course, you must be able to afford high prices and no caring about the consequences (and keep as secrets) and you become one of the many "ghost employers" in every corner of the world.

Pets are one of the natural hobbies of human beings. The most common ones are people who breed various dogs, animals, birds, fishes, monkeys and occasionally others hobbies about all kinds of beasts, such as lions, tigers, leopards and even crocodiles or snakes. In addition to the purpose of profiting for breeding, some people do have the greatest preference for keeping pets. Of these people, there are different people who love to raise all kinds of monsters. It’s really full of surprising in this wonder world.

Perhaps you have also heard of Miaojiang in the Yunnan-Guizhou area. Since ancient times, the Miao people have been very popular in raising the "Jincan (venom-based poisonous related creatures)".

Many Han people have died because of poisoning and are so afraid of hearing anything about Jincan.  So many people mistakenly believe that the purpose of raising of Jincan is because Miao is purely for harm or revenge others. In fact, this is a serious misunderstanding; the normal person will never harm other without purpose. Per Miao,  the Jincan could help  family gets rich quickly and to defend family.

Because no matter what kind of strange method is used to raise Jincan, per the legend, once the they are fully developed, they can guard the door for the owner, help the owner to clean the house, help the crops and farms in the field, and even bring the most fortune to the owner. if the owner is in distress or has an enemy, it  will also completely obey the owner of it to resolve the danger or destroy the enemy.

According to ancient legends, there are hundreds of different kinds of "Jincan", each with its own different appearance and characteristics. The snake is called "Dragon Jincan", and the green frog is called "Unicorn Jincan”.  And some Jincans are even invisible, can be applied as a chronic releasing poisons on food, utensils or earthy even on stones.

One of the most powerful ones is called "flying Jincan". After growing up, you don't need to rely on the owner's regular feeding. Instead, they are free to fly out for food at night. The legendary "flying Jincan" loves to eat the brain of a living person, so the Miao people are most afraid of these flying Jincan. The magic of the "flying Jincan" that has used the brain of a living person is even stronger.

It can even obey the orders of the master, flying thousands of miles to destroy the enemy or stealing all kinds of rare treasures for the masters, so that the master can often get rich overnight. But these have always been It is difficult to find true evidence in the legend, but most of the Miao compatriots are convinced, so that outsiders can only be ashamed and difficult to immediately deny, because there are indeed too many mysterious corners in the world that have not been discovered. Only ignorant people will categorically say "Impossible!" before they could fully understand it.

Today's Southeast Asia, especially in Thailand and Malay, still prevails a kind of witchcraft commonly known as "Tame Head " (witchcraft) under specific cultural background and similar with the Miao’s  Jincan or Taiwan mountain tribe’s "Sand Magic Method".  The "Charms" way are different because these evil spells are without any symbol token but chanting.

Miss  Gu,  once popular singer has the "witchcraft" tragedy that she saw personally; Miss Gu went to the singing show in Southeast Asia all the time and not only she did hear about this "witchcraft" also witnessed a living example more:

That was what happened three or four years ago. At that time, she was on stage in Thailand to make a show. There was a singer S from Taiwan who was also on the same stage. Although the singer just debuted, she was gorgeous plus with superior body figure so she attracted some local high-end audiences.

The wealth of overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia is well-known, and those who often enter the entertainment circle are all very rich. In general, the first introducing gifts if it is not a diamond ring then maybe thousand dollars in the red envelope.  If both got engaging, the rewards might be houses , cars or a lot of banknotes.   

So it has attracted many small and medium-ranking singers in Taiwan to go to this gold mining world. The singer S that I said earlier is one of them. Anyway, these audiences were not there for entertainment. On the stage,  the beauty and the charm are the critical, so the singer S did not hesitate to show what she owns on the stage at the maximum level as she could.

Finally, among the many contenders, a mysterious rich man emerged as the winner, not only can he awarded with a gold medal but also he wanted to be the everlasting winner about this contest.  The fascinating attraction had made the mysterious married rich man happy and wants to keep the singer S forever. But this is obviously a wishful thinking, because the purpose of the small singer is  going back Taiwan as a rich woman, how can she endured the long-term staying in oversea.

Under such moment, suddenly there was a strange thing; another singer as singer S roommate, was horrified to tell the group members: The little singer who seduced the rich man had unknown  issues-- as long as she went back to the hotel , she would utter the inexplicably laughing but not in dreaming.  She would be laughing all the time and whole night.   It was not a happy smile. It’s a laugh that can’t be suppressed. With tears and snot, and even laugh till could not breath. At first, it’s only once every night, and then one night later it became several times per day.  After couple days, the whole person was tossed out and formed into a shape that was not human body. At this moment, everyone avoided it as a ghost and no one dared to live with her again. In the middle of the night, she endured uncontrolled laughter and the situation got worse and worse. The she was sent to a local mental hospital to recuperate.  Until now, she does not seem to recover.

Later, when the people of the same group returned to Taiwan, it was revealed that the little singer S was applied with witchcraft by the mysterious rich man’s wife, who hired high-ranking wizard and gave her a “Tame Head”. Although it will not be immediately dead, but no one knew how to release it so her outcome is extremely miserable.

Such a living example that many singers who have gone abroad for gold rushing, especially those who have come to Southeast Asia to show their talents-- so they know to control for not over showing off in case some tragedies might happen to themselves.

As for some people who often walk around Southeast Asia to talk about the "Tame Head", they are so afraid of it. However, many people from Hong Kong and Macao are eager for the mysterious "Tame Head" of Southeast Asia. Why, it is so unimaginable?

One time author coincided with the late international tradition music instrument master Feng Dem ing from Hong Kong to Taiwan to have a chat, talked about this mysterious "Tame Head" of Nanyang; especially the "Raising Little Devil" sorcerer.

According to Mr. Feng, there are many people in Hong Kong and Macao who are prevalent in raising "Little Devil". It is like a dog or bird-raising style that suddenly arises, but these ghost-raising people are usually not ordinary people. It has special purposes are as follows,

1.First, the gambler: they are all professional gamblers or frequent visitors to the casino.  

In addition to fraudulent gambling, the world will never exist no failing gambling game.  The gambling in Hong Kong and Macao could lead gamblers to lost everything overnight.  So some professional gambler are seeking to win the money is definitely more than the gambling fans here. Therefore, they raise the little devils from Nanyang’s sorcerer with high price so could help win the gambling game. The psychology of these raising ghosts is to win money has become the fashion in Hong Kong and Macao.

2.Second, the gangsters: Since Hong Kong is a free trading port, all kinds of smuggling, drug trafficking, pornography and even intelligence trading are in Hong Kong and Macao. This kind of international triad organization is very powerful and out of people’s imagination. The underworld organizations not only have to evade the police’s attention and arresting, also often have gun battles and assassinations because of conflicts of interest.

Therefore, since they are doing the business of killing and living a bloody day at any time,  they  have to worry about the inexplicable reimbursement from other revengers.  So in order to release the unpredictable disaster, it is inevitable to seek blessing from all kinds of spells.   

If these little devil are well served, the devil will completely obey the owner and would warn the owner before the danger occurs. Or could provide the owner with lead time to stay away the accidental disaster  and These strange mana is too important for the triad characters, so whole gangster groups all breed the "Little Devils".

3. Police and security personnel; this is indeed incredible but it is a fact. Compared with triad organizations, police and security personnel are naturally following the righteous way.  In the position of law enforcement, they are opposed to the underworld, especially In the Hong Kong and Kowloon region where the law and order is not good.  The guns are flooding and make the police and the international anti-narcotics organizations and even the intelligence officers with life threatening are unprecedented.  Whether it is in the process of arresting criminals or in the after-match of revenge,  killings have been happening in the Hong Kong and Kowloon areas are so often. Therefore, compared with the underworld figures, apart from their different positions, they are worried all the time. The mentality of worrying about the evil is the same, so these legal people to breed "little devil"  becomes majority.   On the contrary, they all secretly buy a little devil to  to defend themselves but not openly.

4. Speculative traders: The speculative business has high profits and high risks. This is also well known. Sometimes it is based on the gambling nature of luck, making a profit and loss in speculative business. Except for God, I am afraid no one knows.  In order to be stable,  winning the odds and avoiding the unknown risks made the "raising the little ghosts" naturally became the magic weapon for these speculative businessmen.

5. Entertainers: The entertainment industry has always been one of the most realistic places. How many people are popular overnight, and how many people are floating up and down in this loop area?  The evergreen Stars  in the entertainment circle are rare. The rate of scouring is better than any industry. All high, unnamed artists are eager to become famous. The famous artists are more eager to retain their existing status and fame. Therefore, in addition to their efforts, they have to believe in luck. They are eager to occupy a spot in the entertainment industry. Most of them would believe in fate-- besides negotiating with fortune teller to decide the luck, the others will be more actively looking for special doorways and even various sorcerers to achieve the purpose of quick fame or retaining the existing status. The method of raising a devil naturally becomes popular in the entertainment industry of Hong Kong and Kowloon. Some internationally renowned Hong Kong and Kowloon film giants have been rumored to be famous for "raising a little devil."

6. Rich merchants: Hong Kong's Taiping Mountain is famous for its rich international riches. These wealthy and leisurely princes are afraid of death or being kidnapped by gangsters. Therefore, "raising a ghost" is naturally regarded as a Invisible personal protection.

7.Seven, special purpose: Anyone who is in deeply hatred or nowhere to revenge, can drive the devil to get even with in the dark.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Since "the little devil" has so many magical benefits, isn't everyone supposed to raise a little devil like a pet? If you happen to be one of the seven special characters mentioned above, then is it better to go South Asia  and buys "little devil" to come back to raise it?

In fact, the technique of raising ghosts is not exclusive to the Nanyang region. In the mainland, there has been a sorcerer who has been cultivating ghosts since ancient times. In the mysterious martyrdom of Maoshan or other factions, there have always been various spells of exorcism. Even in Taiwan in the 1980s, there are still some mysterious characters who are raising little devils. There are many fortune tellers who are known as gods and who are straightforward and well-known, regardless of the signs of the characters, gods or battles. In fact, it is the use of "Shu Yu Soul" or "Dew Boy" and other spells, and the servant makes the little ghost secretly report, and all the background information of the fortune teller, even the most secret and unknown private affairs can be investigated in advance. It’s clear, so every time you can make the seeker shocked on the spot and feel great.

The spell about raising a little ghost is a high-powered sorcerer to find the early death boy or girl. After the mourning, he will try to get the right birth and secretly go to the grave of the boy (or girl) in dark night, burned the incense and applied the witchcraft on the soul.  He would plant a alive vine cane on the grave to make it grow naturally. After a period of time, when the rattan has grown and flourished, the soul of the boy (or girl) in the grave is attached to the vine and then the curse bill would be burned.  The cane is carved into the stalk as one-and-a-half-inch tall puppets, painted with facial features and clothing in ink and cinnabar, face-to-face carvings, and chanting curse spell at the same time. After completion, the little ghost is hidden in a small glass bottle with oily stuff, which is a kind of witchcraft secret.  When implementing this method, you must also pick up male and female souls so that they can be hidden in a glass bottle. Otherwise, the lonely soul will not grow (must be Yin-Yang combination). Or it will inevitably escape because of the loneliness.  So if you are lucky, may see this small hidden soul Promoter filled with witch golden oil and soaking two puppet carved cane (one black and one white).

The two little devils in this bottle are sleeping day and night. When they are going to do things, master must first sigh on the bottle opeing, wake them up, read a spell, and tell them what to do with them. So, they are all obedient, never bargaining and will be done in an instant.

In addition, there is another saying that the witchcraft of "Tame Head Raising the Little Devil" is to choose a suitable piece of wood by the sorcerer and to sculpt a small coffin, find a boy or a girl virgin (infant will also work) tomb, unearth the grave, dig out the coffin, open the coffin, take out the corpse, and use a yellow witchcraft wax to ignite the chin of the corpse. When the fat melts into the corpse, it is stored immediately into the prepared little coffins, holding the curse and covering it, and then bringing it back to the dwelling place, between 7 days before and 49 days after period, with the magic power application, the soul can listen to master’s  own order and serve. (There is also a similar kind of " Kuman Thong " or "Glassy Silk").

According to Master Feng Deming: He has a good friend who is a businessman secretly raised this kind of "little devil". When he was still penniless, in order to get rich quickly, he finally made a fortune and a special trip to Malaysia to seek a famous descending wizard and colleted one. Usually, he always put the glass bottle with the imp, in the pocket inside the clothes. It’s a child who is aborted. In the case of childlike innocence, it’s really surprisingly tricky. Not only you can  not be a little inattentive for three meals a day and you have to remember to buy toys for him. Usually, this little devil is unknowingly leading him into the toy store.  

Once he see the toy, the little devil was not care how expensive the toy is, the owner of the ghost must buy with any mean. Even it is inconvenient at hand, still need to borrow money and place toys in the dark corners of the house. The little devils will have nothing to play but themselves.  Otherwise they will be chaotic, regardless of whether the owner is alone or within the public. They would pull your hair, legs  or secretly make you tumbling, even the eye poking or ear stretching, which makes the pain harder and harder to master—until the owner kneels down and ask forgiveness.

No idea person would suddenly made them feel nerve once facing such situations! Mr. Feng himself saw this friend who had seen the ghosts trick the master. It was at the feast of a friend. Usually, the ghost-raiser did not like to participate in the dinner party  because the little devil loves the parties such as banquet dinner. When the ghost will be on site, master must also prepare a seat and tableware for the ghost. Otherwise, the devil thinks that the owner is impolite and would secretly trick the owner. However, this kind of ghosting could not openly announced to the visitors. But if you don't explain it, how come you leave a space around nobody?

If you honestly announce that the seat is reserved for the devil, I am afraid that all the visiting guests will be shocked and run out of the door.  So in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he always disrespected all the big banquets. If he really could not shy away, he had to prepare meals at home. He would ask the little devils to enjoy beforehand then get words for no trick afterwards. Or he would not dare to make the appointment.

Once he happened to meet friend on the road and got invited to drink tea. Mr. Feng Deming was also present.   

When the master just had the first sip, suddenly changed the expression with ears covering,  biting his teeth and cold sweating. The he could not help but and hide in the corner to scream for pain. After a while, he came back and secretly told Mr. Feng: this is because I didn’t ask permission to the devil before, and I didn’t reserve it for him. The no-seating only caused the little devil to get angry and pulled his ears. However, if he is eating and drinking tea with some good friends who know his secrets, he will arrange one more seat and one set of tableware for the little devil. Therefore, four people eating would have five chairs and five sets of dishes. The strange things made the restaurant waiter inexplicable.

Mr. Feng’s friend is indeed rich now. Is it true that no one has brought such wealth to him?

This is not sure but he is very distressed. When he is with his good friends, he often feels regretful about the very beginning devil collection. Now, it’s so difficult to get rid of this little ghost. It’s said that if you want to raise a ghost, as long as you have enough money, there will be no problem. But once there is remorse in the future and want to get rid of the ghost, it is harder than going to heaven.  Because the human is in under the sunlight and the ghost is in the dark--you don't know where he is?

Ghost knows where you are and if he wants to get rid of the little bottle of the ghost, then the little devil will soon find him and get angry and trick. It would often ruin everything the owner has, and even bankrupt or physically hurt. Only the bells need to be ringed is to find the original wizard.  

But if some wizards who want a lot of money, you have to pay more than a few times more money when you buy it to send ghosts back to his hometown.  However, this simple monetary transaction is stilkl easy to handle. In the event of a ghost, if the owner had promised a variety of pledges and can’t honor or repent afterwards,  owner will be in huge trouble. Owner  really regrettable in most situations.

It is understood that there are indeed a few people who raise ghosts in various sectors of Hong Kong and Kowloon. However, many people have regretted it. Even if they are still raising ghosts for their own purposes in order to defend themselves or make profits, they are based on the experience of those who come over. Sooner or later, owners still have to regret it, but I am afraid : to hire ghosts is easy but to fire them  is so difficult!
