- "Sacrifice to the River God?"
Hearing this title, Lu Li frowned, and then asked, "Which river god is there in Jinsha River?"
Instinctively, he felt something was wrong.
If there really is a river god in the Jinsha River, then there is a big turtle here that eats people. Why doesn't the river god come out to take care of it? Or is this river god the big turtle?
The shopkeeper's face became more and more embarrassed. He didn't want to answer, but there was a big customer in front of him, so he hesitated and said: "Originally there was no river god in the river, but more than ten years ago, a big turtle came into the river. , can stir up trouble. Therefore, in order to calm the river, business travelers would choose to sacrifice Big Ao and worship him as the river god every time they cross the river to pass through the river."
The shopkeeper¡¯s statement was very euphemistic.
The incident of Dayao's shipwreck and capsize was covered up by simply stirring up trouble.
Lu Li can also understand his concerns. After all, facing a person like Da Ao, it is quite normal for a person like him to make a living by the river to have taboos.
But if you worship the river god, you can pass through the Jinsha River safely
"There's something fishy here."
Lu Li glanced at the round-faced shopkeeper next to him, and wanted to ask him, but the other person obviously didn't want to talk more about the River God. There was no point in forcing him, so he might as well go and take a look for himself.
Thinking of this, he looked at the round-faced shopkeeper and said: "I see, I don't know when the river god sacrifice will start. I came from afar and wanted to see the local customs."
The round-faced shopkeeper answered cheerfully this time: "The sacrificial ceremony will begin tomorrow. At the same time, the businessmen who stopped in the city will also go to the river together. Once the sacrificial ceremony is over, they will take a boat to cross the river.
It¡¯s a coincidence that the guests came.
If the guests are also planning to cross the river, they can join those business travelers tomorrow, but they will have to pay more for the boat fare. "
"More shipping costs?"
Lu Li felt a little strange and couldn't help but ask, "Why?"
The round-faced shopkeeper explained: ¡°This sacrifice was jointly funded by all the caravans, so that the river could be calmed down.
So we negotiated and paid for the sacrifice together.
Guests who join temporarily need to pay this fee, otherwise the business travelers will not allow the guests to board the ship. "
"That's as it should be."
Lu Li nodded after hearing the shopkeeper's explanation, but decided in his heart that he must go and take a look at the so-called River God Sacrifice tomorrow.
It just so happened that he was a little unclear about Da Ao¡¯s details.
Since tomorrow is the time to sacrifice the big turtle, I think he will also appear, and then we can get a glimpse of the reality.
The courtyard in front soon arrived.
There are more than 20 of them, and the shopkeeper has arranged two courtyards for them, both of which are relatively quiet places.
After arranging a place to stay, the shopkeeper apologized and went down to prepare meals.
After he left, the other ghosts and gods went to their own courtyards. Shen Yan followed Lu Li and couldn't help but say:
"Mr. Lu, the river god is clearly that big turtle. It's not enough to block the river and devour pedestrians. Now it dares to pretend to be a god. It's really audacious."
As a Yin god, Shen Yan is most disgusted and hostile to this kind of man-eating monster that steals the name of a god and ruins its reputation.
Lu Li was not a god, so he didn't have such a big reaction. He said calmly: "I know, so tomorrow we will go to see the river god sacrifice. What kind of sacrifice method can we use to let a monster pass?"
Shen Yan said with some expectation: "Sir, are you planning to take advantage of the sacrifice time when a big turtle appears to kill it?"
¡°It¡¯s still too early to say this.¡±
Lu Li waved his hand to interrupt Shen Yan, but he did not deny it, but said:
"We still have to be more cautious when we see the big turtle tomorrow. If he is strong, forget it. If he is weak"
A smile appeared on his face.
With this giant turtle¡¯s cannibalistic behavior, be prepared to give yourself a little more embarrassment.
"I understand, villain."
Shen Yan nodded clearly and said no more.
The next day soon came.
It was early in the morning, and Lu Li had just woken up when he heard the sound of suona and drums everywhere on the street outside the inn.
Thinking of what the shopkeeper said yesterday, it became clear that this was the beginning of the sacrifice.
He didn¡¯t waste much time, straightened his clothes a little, then got up and went out.
Out of the room.
Lu Li saw that Shen Yan was already waiting in the courtyard. Apart from him, thoseThe gods are also there.
"Mr. Lu."
Shen Yan saw Lu Li coming out and bowed.
"The sacrifice has begun, let's go and take a look."
Lu Li nodded slightly, then led the ghosts and gods out of the door.
Compared to yesterday, there were more people on the streets today. It seemed that people from the entire county had come out, and many came from outside the city.
Many vendors rushed out to set up stalls, and all kinds of shouts came and went.
If you hadn¡¯t seen the deserted scene yesterday, it would be hard to imagine the distance. This is the same city.
"It seems that the River God Festival here is equivalent to a temple fair festival."
After walking around the street, Lu Li couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
A day for worshiping monsters has finally become a local custom. Such things as inertia are really scary.
A man-eating monster can eventually become a god.
In the land of Yan State, the boundaries between gods and demons have been blurred to this point.
"It is precisely because of this that this big turtle must be removed. All these monsters in the Yan Kingdom must also be expelled."
Shen Yan looked at the smiles from the heart on the faces of the passers-by around him. He seemed to really regard this as a gathering to worship God. He happily participated in it and was deeply touched in his heart.
"If this situation cannot be changed as soon as possible, I am afraid that in a hundred years, the demons will really become gods and the demons will become immortals. At that time, good and evil will be exchanged, the heaven and earth will be out of order, the principles will be reversed, and the Yan Kingdom will completely become the domain of demons .¡±
Shen Yan really couldn¡¯t imagine it.
"What a terrible situation it would be if a hundred years from now, people everywhere sincerely regard demons as gods, and cultivators identify with the ways of demons from the bottom of their hearts.
At this very moment.
Only then did Shen Yan realize how crucial the dispute between the two religions was.
Lu Li was not too surprised by this.
He has seen many ideological battles like this in his previous life. In order to promote their respective doctrines, the countries in the Human Galaxy Alliance continue to brainwash the people of other countries. The various bombings are much more intense than now.
Lu Li has been baptized and will not be easily shaken for a long time.
At this time, his attention has been focused on the distance. The goddess he saw at the inn yesterday is now slowly walking out of the city with a crowd of people.
"The messenger of God is here."
"The festival has begun."
"Let's go, go to the river quickly, there won't be much excitement if it's too late."
There was a roar in the crowd, countless people were whispering to each other, and there were excited discussions.
In this era of lack of entertainment.
The goddess¡¯s sacrifice to the river god is a very exciting show in the eyes of these people.
Surrounded by a crowd of people, the goddess held her head high, held an ebony cane in her hand, and left the city solemnly.
