Conya is concentrating on picking out some merchandise for her teammates! They don't have a bad habit of forcing customers to shop, these tourists are willing to ask Conya to help, and Conya doesn't charge any fees.

"Mr. Tang...... You are! ”

Tang Chendong said with a smile, "The incident of the night before yesterday, Xiao Rou and I haven't found a chance to thank you yet!" I was going to call you when I wanted to come! But I'm a bit of a chance encounter, and I think it would be nice to meet them on this island! Sure enough, I met it today! ”

Connie glanced at Qin Xiaorou, covered her mouth and said with a smile, "Mr. Tang, when we go out, we are all Chinese, and we can still help with this little favor!" How's it going, are you alright? It should also look like it's fine! ”

Tang Chendong nodded, "It's okay, thanks to your call, the people from the embassy came forward to help me solve the problem, otherwise I don't know if I can go to Bali this time!" ”

"That's good!"

"Let me introduce you to you, this is my friend, Song Shaofeng, and this is Mrs. Song Lin Xiaoya!"

"Hello!" Connie nodded gently.

Maybe you know Conya or at least know that she is the tour guide here, but the shopkeeper actually took the initiative to give Tang Chendong a discount on the goods he purchased!

Not half as much though!

Of course, Tang Chendong was quite willing to accept it.

Just as she was about to continue shopping, Conya received a phone call!

Then hung up the phone, Connie said to Tang Chendong and the others with some expectation, "Mr. Tang." Just now, one of my tour guides called me and said that a grand cremation ceremony is being held in the north of Kuta, do you want to visit it? ”

Of course, Tang Chendong would not refuse the invitation of others, besides, it was impossible to go back to the hotel to sleep so early this night!

"Okay!" Tang Chendong hadn't opened his mouth yet, but Qin Xiaorou nodded and agreed.

"Then let's hurry up! I'll give my companion a call! After all, Connie is the tour guide who leads the team, she asked her companions to take care of the group members who were resting in the hotel, and then took these group members who came to shop together and Tang Chendong to stop a few taxis on the side of the road.

Soon, the group came to the place where the cremation ceremony was being held.

The religion in Bali is Hinduism. But it is different from the local teachings of India. Or rather, the rules of some religions are not strictly observed!

When Tang Chendong and his entourage arrived, they saw that there were a lot of people around the huge square of the crematorium, including local residents and more tourists from all over the world.

These tourists formed a large circle from afar. And in this big circle. There was a small circle of people who were involved in the whole ritual besieged the city.

Many carry a peep at the atmosphere of mystical religion. Look at the one qiē that happened in the field.

Tang Chendong also looked at the entire venue with a little curiosity.

A group of people seemed to be in a tug-of-war.

But the goal of this tug-of-war is too incredible.

The object of their scramble turned out to be a coffin. Of course, the coffin Tang Chendong saw was still very different from the coffin in his hometown!

Of course, Tang Chendong thinks it's a coffin, but isn't it? He had to ask Conya.

"yes. It was the coffin containing the remains of the deceased, and the two sides of the battle represented the devil on one side and the angel on the other! ”

"Then it must be the angel side who wins!" Tang Chendong also noticed something unusual, although these tug-of-war people seemed to be fiercely competing, they actually did not cause any damage to the coffin itself, and as if the rules of the game had been formulated, a few rounds of tug-of-war, what appeared was the battle between angels and demons for the soul and body of this person.

This battle will determine whether the dead will become subjects of angels or vassals of the devil.

In fact, of course, it will be the angels who win!

This is a blessing for the deceased's family to go to heaven after death.

Then the angel finally won. The coffin was placed on the crematorium, and a fire burst into flames.

And the locals around are almost not a sad one! Most people are singing and dancing, accompanied by drinking, and a jar of wine is passed to each other by these people, one person takes a sip!

"They think that if the family griefs too much, it will prevent the soul of the deceased from ascending to heaven! Therefore, the family members of each of the deceased did not grieve and sang and danced as happily as possible with the locals who participated in the ceremony! Conya explained to Tang Chendong.

"I saw that this coffin seemed to be in the shape of a lion, so it must have been something to say!" Tang Chendong's eyesight is probably the best in this group of people!

"Indeed, what I have learned is that the monks and the wealthy class will carve coffins in the shape of oxen, and warriors will carve them into flying lions, and ordinary people will be fish, elephants, or something!" ”

"Well, Hinduism honors the cow, this can also be imagined!"

As the flame gradually calmed down, and then gradually extinguished. The non-relatives involved in the ceremony gradually dispersed, leaving the relatives of the deceased to collect the last ashes and put them in a coconut shell.

These relatives and the locals involved in the ritual then followed the ritual to the calm seashore.

There are words in the mouth of the sacrifice. The relatives threw the whole coconut shell into the sea according to the instructions of the sacrifice, and disappeared with the waves.

These warriors were generally masters of fighting the waves, fighting the sea during their lifetime and sleeping in the sea after their deaths.

It's the life of these islanders.

When he was born, he purified it with seawater, played on the beach every day, and when he reached a certain age, he sailed out to sea and fished with the adults, and when he died, his ashes were thrown into the sea. This life is inseparable from the sea.

"People from all over the world really have the customs and habits of people from all over the world! Our Chinese people take the soil as peace, this is our nation is a typical farming nation, and we can't do without the land all our lives, and the people here are cremated and buried by the sea. I heard that there are still some places where people who have died and thrown their bodies directly into the river and let the corpses drift down the river. And these people are even more proud of bathing in this river for a lifetime. It can be seen that these people have reverence for the river. There are also people who die, hang their bodies on trees, and let those scavenging birds peck at them, which also fulfills the saying, from nature, to nature. ”

Whether it is to the sea or the land, in the final analysis, it is still the awe and worship of the nature that nurtures human existence!

Human beings are very small in the face of nature!

After the ceremony, the crowd dispersed.

Look at the time, it's basically not early!

"Guide Kang, what's your itinerary tomorrow?"

"Tanah Lot Temple, Holy Spring Temple, Ubud Palace! And, of course, there's Lovina Beach Deer Island snorkeling! See corals and tropical fish! What about you? ”

"We're worried about how to go, in that case, we'll just have a trip with you tomorrow!" After Tang Chendong solicited Qin Xiaorou's opinion and Song Shaofeng's opinion, he said to Conya.

Connie nodded, "Okay! (To be continued......)
