Chapter 496: Popularize it
Mo Fan didn't know much about the year beast, and when they heard the words at this moment, they all looked at the monster under their feet suspiciously.
Is this the Year Beast? Well, even if it is, what's the matter? So Mo Fan asked, "What's wrong with the Nian Beast?" Isn't that scary? ”
At this time, the demon Dao was speechless and said, "Are you sure you know the Year Beast?" ”
Mo Fan shook his head and said, "I really don't know, what's the matter?" You know? ”
"Nonsense, the two of us are working so hard, can we not know if it is a year beast? By the way, you really don't know about the Year Beast? Demon Dao asked again.
"I don't know, there is so much nonsense, you explain it?" Mo Fan said.
The demon Dao was speechless, thinking that they had worked hard to get the Nian Beast out, and the uncle's Mo Fan was not shocked, and there was no shock effect, which was too unfulfilling.
So, in order to let Mo Fan and them understand the Nian Beast and be shocked and scared, Demon Dao decided to teach them a good lesson.
Then he said: "Forget it, I'll popularize the Year Beast for you, listen to it!" ”
So the demon Dao began to speak, and Mo Fan and the others also listened carefully.
It turns out that, according to legend, in ancient times, there was a monster called "Nian", with a long head and antennae, sharp teeth. The eyes are fierce and fierce.
It is said that "Nian" lived deep at the bottom of the sea for many years, and only climbed ashore on Chinese New Year's Eve, devouring livestock and harming human life. Therefore, on Chinese New Year's Eve, the people of the village help the old and the young to flee to the mountains to avoid the harm of the young beast.
On Chinese New Year's Eve this year, the people in the village were helping the old and the young to take refuge in the mountains, and an old man begging came from outside the village.
Some of the villagers sealed the windows and locked the doors, some packed up, some led the cattle and drove the sheep, and people everywhere shouted and neighed, a scene of panic in a hurry.
At this time, who still has the heart to care for this begging old man. Only an old woman in the east of the village gave the old man some food and advised him to go up the mountain to avoid the beast.
The old man stroked his hair and smiled, "If my mother-in-law asks me to stay at home for the night, I will definitely drive the Nian beast away." ”
The old woman was shocked to take a closer look and saw that he had a childish face, strong spirits, and an extraordinary spirit. But she still continued to persuade, begging the old man to laugh and not say anything. The mother-in-law had no choice but to leave her home and go up the mountain for refuge.
In the middle of the night, the Nian beast broke into the village. It found that the atmosphere in the village was different from previous years. The old woman's house in the east of the village is pasted with big red paper on the door, and the candles in the house are bright.
The Nian Beast trembled and screamed.
The Nian Beast glared at her mother-in-law's house for a moment, then screamed and pounced. When I approached the door, there was a sudden explosion sound in the courtyard.
The Nian Beast suddenly trembled, and didn't dare to move forward anymore. It turns out that the year beast is most afraid of red, fire, and explosions.
At this time, the door of my mother-in-law's house was wide open, and I saw an old man in a red robe laughing in the courtyard. The beast was frightened and fled in embarrassment.
The next day was the first day of the first lunar month, and the people who had returned from evacuation were amazed to see that the village was safe and sound.
At this time, the old woman suddenly realized, and hurriedly told the villagers the promise of begging the old man.
The villagers flocked to the old woman's house, only to see red paper pasted on the door of the mother-in-law's house, a pile of unburned bamboo in the courtyard was still crackling and exploding, and a few red candles in the house were still glowing.
In order to celebrate the auspicious arrival, the ecstatic villagers changed into new clothes and hats, and went to the homes of relatives and friends to say hello.
The news soon spread in the surrounding villages, and the people knew how to drive away the Nian beast.
Since then, every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, families have posted red couplets and set off firecrackers. Candles are lit up in every household, and the watch is waiting for the year. On the morning of the first day of the new year, I have to go to my relatives and friends to say hello.
This custom has spread more and more widely, and it has become the most solemn traditional festival among Chinese people. That is, today's New Year!
Speaking of this, the demon Dao looked at Mo Fan and said, "Got it?" This is the origin of the Chinese New Year's legend, you young people celebrate the New Year every year, you don't even know? ”
Mo Fan was a little embarrassed to be said, and said: "When you say this, don't you know, what are you excited about!" ”
"Okay, it's good to know, now I ask if you're afraid, are you shocked?" Demon asked.
Mo Fan said: "What is there to be afraid of? Didn't you say it all, the year beast has three things that are most afraid, that is, red, fire, and explosion, since I know what it is afraid of, then why should I be afraid of it? ”
Hearing this, he was stunned, and scolded himself for being stupid, Mo Fan and the others didn't understand the Nian Beast, so they explained it themselves, why did they say that they were afraid of the Nian?
The Nian Beast seemed to react as well, let out a low roar, and said, "Stupid." ”
At this time, He Ming sneered and said: "Lord Nian Beast, don't worry, among the three, you are most afraid of exploding, there are no firecrackers and no fireworks in this city, don't worry!" ”
"Hmph, that's the best, I'll eat all the people here today!" That being said, the Nian Beast doesn't just eat people, it eats basically all living things.
Just listen to the evil spirits and shout: "Mo Fan, come back quickly, the strength of the beast this year is strong, you can't deal with it, you really rely on firecrackers and fireworks and the like." ”
Mo Fan and the three of them stood awkwardly on the body of the Nian Beast, and after looking at each other, they couldn't help but fly back together.
At the same time, the beast roared angrily, and a breath of black gas spewed out and rushed towards the three of them.
Mo Fan and Ning Wuxin's brother and sister shot a powerful corpse qi together to resist the black qi, but they still shocked the three of them and flew out upside down.
At the same time, Mo Fan shouted: "Where can I find firecrackers and fireworks now?" Where's the red? ”
Luo Yan and the others were anxious to think of a way, and finally took out their mobile phones to call Ni Ba and asked him to find a way, get as many firecrackers and fireworks as possible, and ask for a lot of red cloth and red paper.
And after Mo Fan and the others stood firm, they attacked the rushing Nian Beast again.
At this time, He Ming and Demon Dao returned to the ground and stood on the ground because of the violent movements of the Nian Beast.
Mo Fan and Ning Wuxin's brother and sister continued to bombard the year beast with corpse qi, and at the same time, evil spirits, little fox demons and green snakes also rushed up.
They all changed back to their original forms, and they turned into divine beasts, the same size as the year beasts. The little fox demon turned into a fire fox the size of a calf, and the snake demon turned into a big cyan python, all trying to deal with the Nian beast.
At this time, Mo Fan saw fireworks flickering in the distance on the other side of the river. But because the distance is too far, the sound is very small, and the movement is very small.
That's fireworks in the surrounding countryside, not in the city, but in the countryside it can.
It's just that it's too far away, and it hardly has any effect on the year beast, so it can't scare it.
It's just that although the lively fireworks in the countryside can't scare the Nian beasts on the edge of the city, they really scare other guys.
In the mountains, after the emperor took the queen and dozens of ministers and soldiers out of the underground palace, he walked out of the mountain.
As they approached the village, they were startled by the fireworks that had been set off in the village.
Some people in the village set off fireworks one by one, which were not very powerful.
Some of them are box by box, and the sound of each launch and explosion is very loud, which really scares these dead spirits who have been in the tomb for hundreds of years!
