Ao Tang pulled Mi Lu to the Roewe W5, and Mi Lu said, "What are you driving?" ”

"Go shopping, this Qingshan Island is just a small town, there is nothing to see, drive to the main island of Chuanshan to have a look."

Mi Lu hurriedly shook his head and said: "There's no need to go to the main island, just go around the town, the town also has the scenery of the town, by the way, try the food here to see if there are any characteristics." ”

Ao Tang pretended to be aggrieved and said: "It can't be that you're tired of eating the dishes I cooked, right?" ”

These days, although Mi Lu didn't go out, Ao Tang still went out to buy twice, because Mi Lu had a lot of training work, and she couldn't care about honing her cooking skills, all of which were burned by Ao Tang.

Mi Lu muttered: "Knowingly asked, I can't get tired of eating your food for the rest of my life, and I just hope that you won't get tired of eating my food for the rest of your life." ”

Ao Tang laughed: "It's not just your food, but I can't get tired of eating you as a person, just go around this island." ”

Qingshan Town, Qingshan Island, today's weather is fine and sunny, and it is an early spring with a gentle wind. The two walked around the town hand in hand, and at noon, they picked a small restaurant to enter.

"Boss, what do you have to eat?"

Without the boss answering, the waiter had already greeted him, and while handing over the menu, he recommended: "Smoked pomfret, alum jellyfish skin, flavored snail jerky...... These are our signature dishes. ”

Ao Tang ordered it all with a smile, and asked again: "What is the good tea and wine?" ”

The waiter recommended: "There are two kinds of tea: Penglai Xianzhi and Putuo Buddha tea, and there are double hooks and Yanghe ...... for wine."

Ao Tang was not interested in Buddha, so he ordered Penglai Xianzhi, as for the wine, he preferred the special wine from all over the country, and he didn't have much interest in the wine with the surname of the whole country, so he simply didn't order it.

Waiting for the tea to come up, I found that it was clear and fresh green, and I tasted it, and the fragrance was mellow, so I couldn't help nodding, and the two of them were waiting for the dishes while tasting tea, and the diners at the side suddenly accosted: "This...... Brother, do you still want to buy a car? ”

Ao Tang was stunned for a moment, and when he figured it out, he quickly shook his head and said with a smile: "Last time, I forgot to bring my ID card, and I was in a hurry to use the car, but now of course I don't need it." ”

The diner was suddenly a little disappointed, Lao Li made a lot of money last time, he knew that he should have rushed to sell last time, instead of treating this young man as a neurotic, as long as he can make money, it doesn't matter if he is a neurotic?

Another diner obviously didn't know what was going on, so he asked, "Lao Zhang, what do you buy and sell cars?" ”

Lao Zhang said: "Lao Wang, you were not there at that time, last time this brother was in a hurry to use the car, and spent 100,000 yuan to buy Lao Li's Luzun Xiaobawang." ”

"Huh? 100,000? Luzun Xiaobawang? Lao Wang blew his beard and glared, "Why didn't such a good thing happen to us?" Even if it is a luxury type, Luzun Xiaobawang is only in his early 50,000s. ”

That Lao Zhang was obviously jealous, and in front of Ao Tang, he revealed the bottom of Lao Li last time: "Lao Li bought a promotional special price at that time, 42,000!" He turned his head to Ao Tang and said, "Brother, you don't know, as soon as you left, Lao Li went to the police station to report the loss." ”

Ao Tang laughed, it didn't matter, anyway, he just ran out and parked the car casually on the streets of Shencheng, and was probably dragged away by the traffic police.

That Lao Zhang originally expected Ao Tang to be indignant when he heard it, but to say that he and Lao Li actually have no contradictions, but seeing that Lao Li's money is easy to earn, he is unhappy, so he wants to make others unhappy. Seeing that Ao Tang didn't react, he just cared about whispering to the beauty, Lao Zhang also felt bored, and continued to talk to other diners about the previous topic:

"Do you want to go to the Dragon King Temple in the afternoon?"

"Go, why don't you go, it's idle anyway, bring a fragrant incense, and ask for good luck."

Mi Lu listened and asked Ao Tang: "There is also a Dragon King Temple in this town?" Why didn't you see it just now? ”

Ao Tang smiled: "Let's walk slowly in the morning, we haven't visited the whole town, maybe it's on the other side of the town, let's go and see it in the afternoon." ”

It's just the Dragon King Temple, I don't know how many there are all over the country, and Ao Tang doesn't care much.

Mi Lu took out the tablet computer with great interest, connected to the Internet and inquired at will, while saying to Ao Tang: "There are many dragon king temples here in Chuanshan, there are more than 60 of them, accounting for one-seventh of all the palaces and temples on the island. ”

"Oh?"

Chuanshan is an island, out of awe of the sea dragon king, it is a matter of course to build a few dragon king temples, but the number is as high as more than 60, or Ao Tang is surprised, the belief in the dragon king here is too high, right?

Mi Lu looked up a little, shook his head and said: "I didn't find the details of the Dragon King Temple on Qingshan Island, it's probably an ordinary Dragon King Temple without any incense." ”

The food in this small restaurant is not bad, and after eating, the two continued to walk leisurely, and finally saw a temple in the east of the town.

The temple is not big, not as big as the Jinglongwang Temple in Mangrove Village, it looks old and quaint, and it is probably quite old. The temple door is open, you can see the inside from the outside, the space is not big, there is nothing, just the incense burner and the statue of the god.

In front of the temple, there is a stone road, which is so-so and a square. I just heard from diners that the dragon dance was held at two o'clock in the afternoon, and now it is only about one o'clock, but many townspeople have already come to the square, some set up stalls, some hang out and chat, and some children chase and play.

Ao Tang and Mi Lu ran to see the stall, some of the gadgets on the township stall actually didn't have anything to buy, but Mi Lu was quite interested in picking and choosing, bought a few as a souvenir, and talked to the old man who set up the stall.

The old man was a talkative man and said, "Actually, our habit here is that there will be a larger-scale dragon sacrifice in the sixth and seventh months of the lunar calendar, when men, women and children gather together to pray to the Sea Dragon King for good weather and peace for the country and the people. The second dragon raised its head in February, and it was only a little lively. ”

The old man said, "You're traveling from other places, aren't you?" Don't look at Qingshan Island is not prosperous, and don't look at Qingshan Town is just a small town, in fact, there is still some history, just this Sea Dragon King Temple, which is a monument in the Tang Dynasty, and has more history than several famous Dragon King Temples in Chuanshan. It's a pity that the town has applied to the city several times for cultural relics and historical sites, and the city has called it back, saying that the temple is not big, a small temple, and can't get that, oh, tourism economy. ”

"The temple of the Tang Dynasty?" Ao Tang looked back, it was really an ancient temple, but unfortunately, if it was the Well Dragon King Temple, he might still be interested in touching it in the middle of the night to find out if there was a well and whether it could be drilled, but the Sea Dragon King Temple? There is only one Dragon King of the East China Sea on this side of the East China Sea, and he will not stay in this small temple anyway, not to mention that the tortoiseshell has said that the Dragon King of the East China Sea left hundreds of years ago.

At this time, there were more and more people, probably people from the villages below also came to the town, and after a while, the dragon dance team also arrived, and the square suddenly became more lively.

Ao Tang and Mi Lu found a place to enjoy the dragon dance performance with the ordinary audience, because it was the Dragon King of the East China Sea, the dragon was a big green dragon, and the team members were wearing red and yellow costumes, and there were gongs and drums, and the bangping was quite energetic. Although it is not a famous performance team, it is just a folk activity organized spontaneously in the township, but it is still a little interesting to watch.

In addition to the dragon dance, there are a series of programs such as the lion breathing fire and the big-headed doll, and when all the performances are finished, it is almost three o'clock. At this time, enter the last link, incense.

This temple is indeed very small, not able to accommodate many people, and a temple blessing came out of it - probably not a real temple blessing, just like the Longwang Temple in Mangrove Village, looking for an old man with five guarantees to guard the temple. Miaozhu greeted the two young men, and moved the incense burner in the temple to the square, and went back to move a large vat out.

"Incense to the Dragon King of the East Sea!"

There is no need for temple blessings to preside, under the organization of several old people in the town, people began to enter incense, probably a practice for many years, but it is also in order.

Some townspeople and villagers prepared their own incense, inserted the incense into the incense burner, took yellow paper to make the fire of the incense candle, lit it and threw it into the vat, and took it as a gift, praying for the peace of the country and the people, and begging for the health of their parents, some for being admitted to a good university, for a daughter-in-law to have a son, for making more money, for finding a wife, and for whether the dragon king did this or not.

Some villagers are not prepared, so they temporarily go to the stall to buy, five yuan two incense, a small stack of yellow paper, even if it is a thrifty villager, thinking that it is only once or twice a year anyway, so they don't care about the price. The really poor people really didn't want to spend the five yuan, but they also followed the line and ran to the incense burner and put their hands together to say their sins.

There were some outsiders who asked the townspeople on the side, and they also ran up to buy incense.

Not everyone went up, some people muttered superstitions in a low voice, just watching the excitement on the side.

Mi Lu pulled the soup and said in his ear: "Either we will also incense, if the Dragon King of the East China Sea is still here, as the head of the Dragon King, you, the Dragon King of the Lancang River, will also show respect, just think of it as a good play." ”

Ao Tang didn't respond to her, Mi Lu couldn't help but feel a little strange, looked at Ao Tang's expression carefully, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Ao Tang put away the shock on his face, looked left and right, pulled Mi Lu to retreat to a secluded place, and whispered, "There is a reaction." ”

"What's the reaction?"

Ao Tang said: "As they offered incense and prayed, the statue of the dragon king in the temple had a slight reaction. ”

Mi Lu was taken aback when he heard this: "Isn't the Dragon King of the East China Sea gone?" ”

Ao Tang is also strange, he has swam in the East China Sea I don't know how many times, if the Dragon King of the East China Sea is still here, it is estimated that he would have come to the door a long time ago.

"The fairies and monsters should be gone, but the statue ...... Forget it, I'll steal it at night, and I'll think about it when the time comes. Ao Tang sensed it from a distance, and said, "Not everyone has a reaction to the incense, only those who seem to be sincere, and only about half of the nearly 100 people who have already made incense." ”

Mi Lu said: "There are so many superstitious people? Uh......" She looked at Ao Tang and suddenly smiled, she, the person closest to the Dragon King, had no intention of believing in Ao Tang at all.

Ao Tang said: "My country broke the four olds, swept the feudal, originally there should not be so many superstitious people, perhaps because of the whale disaster, people can not find other explanations, can only believe in aliens or gods and Buddhas, superstitious people will definitely increase." ”

The two returned to the courtyard, Mi Lu continued to teach the water tribes, she was concentrating, but Ao Tang's heart was like scratching, full of thoughts about what was going on?

Since he became the dragon king, he has also read a lot of myths and legends, superstitious materials, of course he knows the relationship between incense and immortals, he used to read several online novels on his roommate Lao Hong's side, one of which is to ignite the fire of the gods and seal the gods, saying that gods need the power of faith.

No matter what is going on in the West, Ao Tang knows that the immortals of the Eastern system do not have to have faith, and even if they have no faith, it will not lead to a fall, because in addition to the gods in the East, there are also immortals, immortals and mountain people, who completely rely on their own cultivation, so why do they need any faith? Of course, even if the gods do not need to believe, but as long as people worship, incense is indispensable.

Ao Tang suddenly thought, if the people's incense can really be transformed into the power of the gods, then can he consider it from this aspect? But if you do that, will it be exterminated as a cult?

And judging from the only information in the Dragon Ball inheritance, the reason why the gods and monsters left this world is because of "humanity and ghosts", which shows that the gods and monsters were also forced to leave.

It's nothing for him to make a small fuss now, if he really comes up with a dragon king god cult, because of the existence of him, the real dragon king, and some miracles will be manifested at that time, he will definitely be able to sweep away the cross religion that has long been devoid of the cross god, become the world's largest religion, and even defeat various sects and become the only religion in the world, I wonder if it will violate "humanity" by doing so? If it is violated, it will be violated, but will there be any unknown harm?

Ao Tang's mind was full of mud, his thoughts were flying, and he faintly felt that he should not take the steps of a "cult", but no matter what, he must steal the statue to see what happened!

In the evening, Mi Lu looked at Ao Tang, couldn't help shaking his head, and muttered: "You have to have calm in every big event, you still need to hone Ao Tang." "She's running the kitchen by herself.

Listening to Mi Lu's words, Ao Tang couldn't help but reflect, that's right, no matter what, he should be calm and calm, even if he doesn't take the path of incense, it is nothing more than a slower speed of evolution, anyway, he has time. Although I don't know how long I live, I think that the dragon king will not be as mere as a human for a hundred years, right? With this thought, I was suddenly worried about the life span of the three of Milu, after all, I wanted to grow old together, but I didn't want to have nowhere to talk about desolation.

"Lulu, let's make dinner together." Ao Tang scurried to the kitchen, "I'm going to make a big meal tonight, finish all the remaining ingredients, and it's a waste to stay here, although the water tribe can eat cooked food, it can't cook." ”

In the hall, the aquarists smelled the fragrance wafting from the kitchen, and couldn't help muttering: "When the Dragon King leaves tomorrow, we can only eat raw fish again, or which brother will come out to learn first-hand cooking?" By the way, Zhang Geng, didn't you call yourself a six-armed swordsman when you chopped coral before? It's better to switch to becoming a chef. ”

Zhang Geng said proudly: "I used to need two wrists and feet to support me, and I could only use six knives, but recently I learned the reading power of the golden rooster and have evolved to a seven-armed swordsman!" ”
