Chapter 642: Sacrifice (Part 2)
"Yes, it's a sacrifice. Lao Yan took a sharp puff at the end, and the cigarette butt shone with an orange glow.
Throwing the cigarette butt into the fire, Lao Yan swallowed the cigarette in his mouth into his lungs.
"Isn't that what those myths say, incense sacrifices, these gods need these things. Even if they really don't like it...... At least it won't be annoying. When the time comes, just kill two fat pigs, two live cows, and buy some coarse incense to worship. ”
"Good. Several other people in the team had no opinion.
"If you can have a good relationship with this Jiangshen...... It can be regarded as an additional backer. A glimmer of light appeared in Old Yan's cloudy eyes.
After all, they are hunting near Yuzhou now, and they don't dare to go too far, and Yuzhou is not built near the river.
"Eh, you say, did those people in ancient times also worship these river gods and water gods in this way? is it because these river gods and water gods can protect them?" Huang Tao seemed to be very interested in the river gods, and asked with great interest.
But the others didn't seem to be interested in the river god water god river god, and a few people yawned, and then rolled back in a sleeping bag and snorted and fell asleep.
Huang Tao was not discouraged, and ran to the door of the stone cave, where her royal beast water crocodile squatted beside her, staring at the tree in front of her with dead fish eyes.
Huang Tao sat on the back of the water crocodile, supported his chin with both hands, and looked at the Yangtze River under his feet with a longing expression.
Water God...... What kind of existence are you?
"You haven't slept yet. Lao Yan walked out from behind, didn't care about the ash on the ground, and sat directly on the ground.
"No, I can't sleep. Huang Tao shook her head.
"Are you still thinking about the water god?" Lao Yan seemed to see through Huang Tao's thoughts.
"Hmm. Huang Tao nodded, turned his head to look at Lao Yan, "Do you know, I encountered dirty things when I was a child, when I was only five years old, my mother had a fight with my grandparents at my grandmother's house, and in a fit of anger, she rushed home from home overnight with me on her back.
On the way home, I happened to pass by a cemetery, and then my mother heard my grandfather calling her name in the back, and my mother's face changed and told me not to look back, and my mother trotted all the way with me on her back.
But the voice followed us all the time, calling my mother's name at first, and calling me when my mother ignored it.
I was ignorant, and when I heard someone shouting, I turned my head stupidly.
I turned around and saw an old man in yellow standing behind me with a kind face, he was holding a small yellow short coat in his hand, and then draped the short coat on my back.
When I got back, I was very sick and went to the town to find a doctor and get medicine, but it didn't work.
Finally my mom took me to my grandmother......
I told my grandmother what happened that day.
My grandmother was a goddess of the village, and she took me to a temple in the back mountain to worship a stone statue in the temple, and she told me that this was a mountain god.
After worshipping the mountain god, I went back that night and slept and got better.
Since that day...... I believe in these things. Huang Tao smiled, "Later, I told other friends about it, but they didn't believe it, thinking that I made up the story, or that I was ignorant when I was a child, and my eyes were dazzled." ”
"That's right. Lao Yan nodded, "Some things are really hard to say. ”
Three days later, on the bank of the Yangtze River, a relatively flat area.
A large pure iron tripod stands on the site, and a large number of incense candles are burned in the bronze tripod, and the rich incense fills the air.
There are several small tables in front of the big ding, and some sacrificial offerings such as melons and fruits are placed on the table.
Originally, someone asked if he wanted a boy or a girl, but Lao Yan slapped him on the head, "Still a boy and a girl, why don't you steam lambs, bear paws, deer tails, roast ducks, roast chickens, and roast geese...... This. ”
However, although the names of the vegetables above are not known, there are two fat and strong live cows that have been knocked out and tied to the ground.
Huang Tao had learned some of the methods of sacrifice, which she had learned from her grandmother as a child.
Because after the incident happened a little later, Huang Tao was more interested in this aspect of things, and interest is the best teacher, so she learned a lot by heart, and now she can barely recall some of the steps.
Time passed minute by minute, and all the steps of the sacrifice were completed, but the Yangtze River in front of him still did not move at all.
"Could it be...... It's useless?" someone muttered quietly.
"Shut up. A person next to him whispered.
"Sincerity is spirituality, maybe as long as the heart arrives. A person next to him whispered.
Huang Tao looked at the Yangtze River with blank eyes, some expectations in his heart, and a faint longing.
Yangtze River, deep.
A consciousness suddenly sensed something strange.
In the depths of the Sea of Knowledge, a strange current of heat suddenly seeped into its soul from some mysterious place.
Although the number is small, the role played is insignificant.
But the effect is really significant.
Just like people want to eat when they are hungry, a small bite of rice can't be filling, but it arouses people's desire to eat more.
This feeling is......
The Brain of Growth groped its way through the source of this power.
"It seems that the water god is not coming, captain, or let's go. Someone said to Lao Yan.
Lao Yan looked at the back of Huang Tao in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh, Huang Tao is twenty-one years old this year, both in height and personality, he is a bit like his daughter who was eaten by monsters during the catastrophe, which is also the reason why Lao Yan takes care of Huang Tao a lot.
Whew, whew.
Suddenly the wind blew by the river.
It was very windy.
Flags were blown and hunted.
Woowoo......
The beasts walked back and forth restlessly, whimpering in horror or alarm.
The surface of the water suddenly broke, and a huge palm made of condensed water broke through the water and grabbed the mountain peak behind it.
Wow!
The surface of the water broke open again, and another giant hand emerged from the water and grabbed another mountain.
Although it was not the first time they had witnessed it, they were extremely shocked to see this scene again.
Rushing!
The water is elevated, and the sunlight shines through the water to the shore, and the whole shore looks as if it is covered with a pale blue veil.
Not far away, a monster hunting team was hunting, and suddenly there was a great movement on the river at the foot of the mountain, and a super huge water man stood up from the Yangtze River, not even much shorter than the mountain.
"Damn, what the hell is this, why is the earth star getting more and more terrifying every year. ”
"Look! Hurry up and run!"
"Wait a minute, brother, look at the shore. "Someone pointed to the shore.
Right on the shore, instead of fleeing, the group raised their heads as if they were talking to this unprecedented giant creature.
Someone even took out their mobile phone to take pictures.
In the captured mobile phone screen, an indifferent, cold voice echoed in the heavens and the earth.
"I am Shen Chang, the water god of the Yangtze River, born in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and blessed the people of the Yangtze River for more than 2,000 years......"
