Chapter 13: The Poseidon Festival

Sacrifice, a thanksgiving event with an ancient history.

Probably since apes evolved into humans, in addition to filling their stomachs, people have learned to find spiritual pillars for themselves.

A stone with the appearance of a human face, an animal with a powerful look that humans at the time, some kind of weather that would bring hope, you can do it.

People carved them into stone and made them their faith, and they believed that it would bring them luck, that they would be able to live, that their race would prosper.

Later, people grew up, learned to protect themselves with weapons, learned to use fire to drive away wild beasts, and in the absence of mobile phone networks to pass the time, people learned to fantasize, and they installed one magical ability after another on them according to their own mold or that of animals.

People bow down to the gods of heaven and earth that they have imagined, and offer them hard-won food, hoping that there will be a magical power to protect them.

The three-eyed man will shine, the winged tiger is more ferocious, the headless man can have eyes on the upper body, and the navel will be the mouth, there will be a bluebird in the sky that will guide people and be covered with moonlight, and the pillars that support the sky with no end in sight, and those imaginations that cannot be seen but leave a deep impression in human history are called myths and legends.

"Therefore, it was difficult for the gods in the past to determine the truth or falsehood, and I know that our students are highly educated, believe in science, believe in magic, and the so-called divine phenomena may be some phenomena that we cannot understand."

The person who spoke was very young, and he didn't look much older than them, and there was nothing outstanding about the simple Taoist robe and hat, but it was better to be clean, if he guessed correctly, this unknown event should have nothing to do with him.

"Daoist Yu, since you all know that theology is nothing but a psychological comfort for people, why do you still hold a sea god sacrifice to appease the anger of the sea god, isn't this self-deception?"

Not all students are so superstitious, and the students who reacted quickly immediately seized the loophole in the words of this Taoist priest and cracked down on feudal superstition, which can be regarded as a merit to the school! If you don't get it, you can report the reward and get a few credits!

"Look at it, if we don't say that the students of our Demon University have spirituality, of course we can't deceive ourselves, pointing to the sea and seeing nothing, and lying to people that there is a god, isn't that stupid?"

The Daoist Yu seemed to be a little thirsty, and slowly took out a small empty bowl from his arms, and after turning his backhand, the bowl was actually overflowing with tea, and after this hand made everyone's eyes widen in disbelief, the little Daoist took another sip and continued to explain:

"Then again, since the secret realm was exposed, the magic era opened, there are many unknown secret realms on the bottom of the sea that are not mined, according to the rigorous thinking, your demon capital Professor Deng Yiming published the world's shocking "Underwater Secret Realm Research Report" in 2009 directly set off a craze to find the secret realm of the ocean, although the entrance to the secret realm has not been found so far, but it is true that traces of the activity of the demon pet have been found under the three sea areas. ”

Like children listening to stories, their interest has been fully aroused, after all, this is not nonsense but a factual event with many verification channels, and it is a factual event about Professor Akito, his alma mater.

"The Klotisqin Strait in the coastal area of the Eagle Country, the blue sea area in front of the capital of the Yaptun Kingdom, and the offshore area of the Demon Capital, as we all know, every secret realm has at least one Divine Beast level point guardian, so you still don't understand, the so-called Sea God sacrifice to the sea god is better to sacrifice this unknown sea divine beast."

In the end, this Daoist Yu's right hand couldn't help but clench his fist and slam it on his left hand, looking like he was sad that it was for your good, if he didn't know that this thing was indeed a true Taoist, Yang Yu would have suspected that this guy was a mixed performer.

"Also, it's okay to hold a sea god festival to go to bad luck, our school has been really unlucky recently, a good Divine Flame Peony Club is about to become a funeral party, the champion and the third runner-up are all out of such a file, how will this be opened in the future."

"The guardian of the divine beast of the secret realm under the sea, if I have one in the Demon Alliance, I must be at least the level of the Lord of the Twelve!"

"Don't put that stumbling aside, the beast is blind! Choose you, I didn't dream of this good thing, according to me, let's be practical, take a camera, and hold a sea god meeting Even if you don't recruit a divine beast, taking a picture of an unknown demon pet in the secret realm of the sea is also a big gain, and the risk is low, you have to eat and walk around if you anger the divine beast. ”

The big pie of the secret realm under the sea is definitely well drawn, especially for young people who are full of curiosity and always feel that their magic level is almost invincible, adventure always makes people so eager and full of energy.

"What do you want to do with this thing, by the way, Lao Meng, you just said that the Poseidon Sacrifice is a sacrifice to the sleeping girl at the bottom of the sea, isn't it the dead this morning? And who is that girl? ”

Yang Yu looked at a shameless Taoist priest with a toothache on his face, and asked about Lao Meng's sea god sacrifice by the way, he had never heard of this custom in the demon capital.

"The sea god sacrifice is not to worship these children, the 19th century demon explorer Qiao Xi, a woman closest to the sea beast, but unfortunately she is dead, and her body was buried in the sea according to her last wishes, and some people in later generations called her the goddess of the sea."

Take the tone as a tone, this is Qin Heng's accurate evaluation of the man with glasses who has just arrived and his speech makes him a little uncomfortable, how can anyone speak so coldly, of course, Young Master Qin will never admit that his hostility is because this ascetic male god face is too foul.

"Explorer, I thought that such an ancient profession would only exist in the West, but I didn't expect that Xia Country also had such a great explorer."

Explorers, also known as the pioneers of the secret realm, the new era is coming, each secret realm is a novel small world for the human world, unknown pets, unknown resources, unknown wealth, also contains unknown dangers, record the situation in the inner part of the secret, pave the way for the followers, and have the courage to face the unknown forerunners in various countries to leave a lot of legends.

"I have to say that sometimes the superstitious means of worshipping God can calm people's hearts more."

Yang Yu sighed slowly, but his eyes involuntarily drifted to the side of Daoist Yu who was struggling to speak, his heart was not quiet! I thought I'd wait until I had time to ask this guy for help, but I didn't expect to catch up.

"Also, the sea only found clothes with Mu Jingqing's DNA information, and there is not enough evidence to prove that Mu Jingqing is dead, and it is not allowed to hold a funeral for someone or hold a crowd in this name without confirming someone's death."

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Lao Meng's words only revealed one message, although this incident was weird, it was possible that this Mu Jingqing was still alive.

Looking at the familiar faces that were still trying their best to fool people over there, Yang Yu suddenly felt an urge to come forward and expose his deception brewing in his heart.

"What, you ran into an acquaintance again? Mr. Yang, who has a wide range of friends, yes, the circle of friends has expanded to the temple, is it to prepare for the next step of becoming a monk? ”

Young Master Qin patted Yang Yu on the shoulder with a wicked smile, to be honest, for a profession like a Taoist priest, the so-called spells were mostly deceptive tricks in his eyes, even in this era when magic was prevalent.

"Monk, hehe, I'll think about it later, but it's you who have to be careful now, you must know that this guy is a money fan, a money fan who has almost no lower limit and can speak well."

Yang Yu raised his head and looked at the familiar Taoist robe, Daoist Yu, long time no see!

"Anyway, why did Lao Yu engage in the Poseidon Festival at this time?"

Yang Yu, who came back to his senses, remembered his mission to come to school.

That's right, as you think, it's just a pure "business" to make money. ”

Listening to Mr. Meng's affirmative answer, Yang Yu slowly held his forehead, this is really Lao Yu's style!

What is the most taboo thing to fool people, Yu Daochang probably has a deep understanding, when you are trying to fool new customers, you suddenly found a few faces in the crowd that are very familiar, why are you so like the person who "pointed out the maze" before.

"Yes, this classmate, you see, the magic capital has to hold large and small Poseidon Festivals every year, according to the market price, you see that this Poseidon Festival is not expensive, if it weren't for the old man going down the mountain this time mainly to get rid of ...... , Yang Maniac. ”

As early as a month ago, Daoist Yu felt that his left eyelid jumped, which is a symbol of the advent of the God of Wealth, so he ignored the right eyelid by the way, and pinched the newspaper to calculate, yo, this year's peony will actually have such a big problem, this is the time when the monks are duty-bound, look at the feng shui of this year's competition venue is not good, but it doesn't matter, Master Yu will not end a puja?

No, it's not easy for children to fool around now, but fortunately, I usually watch some news, and the Poseidon Festival is very interesting, and there is a scientific basis.

Just as Master Yu struggled to flicker... Ahem, after explaining diligently, the students all realized the seriousness of the problem and agreed to have a sea god sacrifice to pray for Qiao Xi, who he was not very familiar with, and the so-called secret beast sacrifice under the sea, but I didn't expect it.

I'm Lao Yu, a good Taoist priest of the Xia Kingdom, flickering... Phew, what should I do if I meet a former Taoist friend who was cheated when I was preaching and teaching, and I am anxious for an answer!
