Chapter 893: Sea Graveyard (2)
Not only did he make a big hole in the bottom of the boat, but also when the boat was launched.
Secretly used a knife to puncture the wax seal sealed at the bottom of the ship, thinking that my father could sink to the bottom of the sea halfway.
Unexpectedly, the boat with a big hole floated and sank in the water, and it was a day and a night, and finally it sank to the cemetery.
"Why do the dead sink into the sea? Isn't it okay to be buried on the shore? ”
Old Tan lame shook his head: "No." We have ancestral teachings that we must go to the cemetery after death. ”
I said, "Why?" ”
Old Cripple Tan said, "Because we owe them." ”
Old Cripple Tan told me that in ancient times, when a small fishing village by the sea was built, a sea god would be buried under the beach, and this sea god could be a two-headed sea snake bone, or a giant turtle shell, which is a very rare thing anyway, and the most valuable thing in a fishing village.
This thing will be used as a gift to the god of the sea, which is equivalent to buying a piece of land with this for the whole village to live in.
With this gift, the god of the sea will bless the safety of the sea, and the small village can continue.
Although the fishing village of Tan Lao Lame is not big, it has a history of hundreds of years.

Sometimes digging sand on the beach, you can dig up some big turtle shells, which are all ancient characters, and remember the things of our fishing village.
You know, it is very difficult to make a living at sea, a typhoon, a wave down, a boatload of people is gone, and there is no one alive.
Therefore, there are so many small fishing villages by the sea, and there are few ancient villages, which have long been extinct.
Old Cripple Tan said that their fishing village could survive here for thousands of years, because the sea god buried back then had great mana, and it had always blessed the village, so that they could continue to reproduce.
At this point, I asked, "How many people are there in your village?" ”
Old Tan's expression was a little gloomy, and he said, "I'm alone." ”
I was a little puzzled, "Isn't it the god of the sea who can bless your village?" ”
It's also too unreliable.
"Because the god of the sea in the village was stolen. So disaster came to the village. Old Tan said angrily.
I was shocked, "Who did that?" ”
Old Tan shook his head: "At that time, there were businessmen from other places who came to our place to dig oil wells, and there were some old people in our village, and they felt that something was not right, so they secretly entered the mine in the middle of the night and found that they were not mining at all. ”
"It's looking for the god of the sea. After negotiations with them failed, the village sent people to forcibly take the sea god, but during the fight, the mine suddenly collapsed, smashing everyone underneath. ”
"Later, the people of the village dreamed that when the sacrifice of the god of the sea was taken away, the god of the sea was furious, and punished them for suffering under the mines, and washed them hundreds of times a day with the sea, and they could not be released until the whole village died in the cemetery."
Later, the village made a rule that when the villagers died, they would be buried in the cemetery to wash away the sins of the time.
I don't know the truth of what Old Cripple Tan said, but I was quite curious, so I continued to ask: "Then why don't you return the sacrifice of the sea god?" ”
Old Tan lame shook his head: "I won't go back yet." ”
I was a little confused, "Are you still reluctant?" ”
Old Tan smiled bitterly and said: "Life is gone, what is there to be reluctant to, the key is that it is gone." ”
"As I said earlier, the gang found a shipwreck, but not only, it was hundreds of ancient shipwrecks, and there were a lot of antiques and gold in them. Before he died, the man left behind a map with the address of the place. ”
