The Minjiang River, the runoff river, has benefited hundreds of people. In particular, the Dujiangyan project has created a prosperous country of abundance for thousands of years.

Niejia Village is located on the banks of the Minjiang River, since the ancestors of the Qin Dynasty fled the war and forced labor to move here, it has been a thousand years, the villagers live by fishing and farming, although not rich, but can be regarded as living and working in peace and contentment.

On the bank of the Minjiang River, there are several small wooden boats tethered.

This wooden boat is five feet wide and two feet long, it doesn't seem to be big, and people will sway when they step on it, but it is the guy that the fisherman depends on for his survival.

The wooden boat was wobbly floating on the riverside, and a fishing rod came out of the cabin, tied with a fishing line. It is not appropriate to say that it is a fishing line, because it is a little finger thick, and it may be more appropriate to call it hemp rope.

There was no bait attached to the tail of the line, but a small piece of metal was tied to it, shining silver, as if a small fish had been thrown into the water under the sun. The long line drifts in the river with the waves and flows downstream.

In the cabin, several immature voices came out:

"Oh, Brother Ye, can you do this hook, I've never seen a fish that can be fished without bait!"

"yes, yes, I haven't caught a fish for so long, it's annoying. Brother Ye, tell us a story, I want to hear the story of the White Lady. Another childish voice, but it was a girl.

"No, I want to listen to Monkey King!"

Several children quarreled. It's a mess. However, at this time, the fishing line has already floated 100 meters away, so there is no need to worry about scaring the fish away.

Or maybe a few of the kids don't believe in fish at all.

On the fishing boat, a man in white, with a young appearance and a long figure, looks like a rich son, and his temperament is dusty.

At this time, he held a fishing rod in his hand, and the rod made of bamboo was extremely tough, and the rod moved slightly in the wind.

This person is Ye Jun, a few days ago, he left the first world in the world, came to this world, and appeared in this small mountain village.

Ye Jun was not in a hurry to go out to explore the rivers and lakes, but stayed here to understand some basic conditions of this world. After a few days, he didn't get much news, but he was familiar with the children in the village, and he was a child king.

Ever since he told a story about the havoc in the Heavenly Palace, it was even worse, these children had become complete followers, revolving around him all day long, clamoring to listen to stories.

"Brother Ye, you can't catch fish like this, if you want to eat fish, I'll ask Daddy to catch you a few fish!" The little girl shook her head, and the pigtails of the sheep on her head rose up like two antennas rising into the sky. Shaking Ye Jun's arm, he said, "You still tell us a story." ”

The little boy next to him had a slimy slug under his nose and ran to the corner of his mouth, licked it with his tongue, sucked it again, and said, "Yes, yes, tell a story!" ”

At this moment, the sound of crackling firecrackers was heard in the distance.

Ye Jun knew that today was the New Year, and his expression couldn't help but feel a little emotional, he had gone through several worlds, and it was the first time to celebrate the New Year.

As soon as his mind moved, he already had a story, and said with a smile: "Today's New Year, I will tell you a story about the New Year Beast!" ”

"Okay, listen to the story!"

A dozen or so children sat side by side, like little monkeys, and it was rare to be so honest.

"Legend has it that at midnight at the end of the year, a monster called the Nian Beast attacks the village...... In order to drive away the New Year Beast, the villagers invented firecrackers, and when the beast came, they set off firecrackers to scare the New Year Beast away......"

"No, no, no!"

The little girl suddenly objected and said, "Brother Ye, you are wrong. The purpose of setting off firecrackers is not to drive away the New Year Beast, but to drive away the fire demon ......"

"Yes, the fire demon will come out to eat people during the New Year, and the radish head was taken away by the fire demon the year before last, and it was the villagers who set off firecrackers to scare it away."

"Fire demons eat people?" Ye Jun picked it slightly, could it be that he came to a fairy world with demon beasts?

Several children pointed to the towering Buddha in the distance: "That's it, where the fire demon came from!" ”

A big Buddha, carved from a whole mountain, towering into the clouds, rare in the world.

It is impossible for Ye Jun not to know this famous "Leshan Giant Buddha" in later generations.

At first, when he came to this world and saw the Leshan Giant Buddha, Ye Jun didn't care too much about it, after all, since the Tang Dynasty, the Leshan Giant Buddha stood on the Minjiang River, until later generations, after thousands of years. Who knows which dynasty this is?

The villagers in the village have never read a book, they are isolated from the world, and they don't even know who the emperor is, let alone tell Ye Jun what era this is.

However, now Ye Jun has some guesses in his heart.

A proverb came to mind: Flood the Buddha's knees, burn the Lingyun Cave - that is, when the fire demon appears.

However, the children seem to be very afraid of the fire demon, and it may be that they have been told by adults not to talk about the fire demon since they were young, otherwise they will be taken away if the fire demon hears about it.

At this time, Ye Jun suddenly felt the fishing line in his hand suddenly tighten, and changed his words and said, "Look, isn't the fish taking the bait?" ”

I saw that with a slight flick of his wrist, the hundred-meter-long fishing line was thrown back in an instant, and a hundred meters away, a big fish broke through the waves, crossed a perfect parabola in the sky, and fell into the fish cabin.

The fish was more than five feet long, straight as a long rod, and its pointed mouth showed a mouth full of fine teeth.

A group of little kids were dumbfounded. They were born into a family of fishermen and have been fishing for generations, and they have also learned from their parents to fish since they were young, but they have never seen this method of fishing.

The slug exclaimed: "I recognize, this is a water tiger, this thing can be very tight, last time Daddy netted a three-foot-long water tiger, the fish dragged the boat out of a mile away, and finally pierced a big hole in the net, and when the net was mended, Auntie complained about it!" ”

At this moment, smoke rose from the cooking smoke of the village in the distance, and there was a crackling sound.

The children immediately cheered: "Set off firecrackers, go home for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner!" ”

"Brother Ye, go to my house for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner!"

"Go to my house ......"

The children were noisy again, and they all dragged Ye Jun to their own house, it wasn't that these little guys were really so hospitable, they just wanted to hear a few more stories of Monkey King.

Ye Jun carried the big fish in his left hand and the little girl in his right hand, and walked towards the village under the envious eyes of the children.

When he first came into this world, the first person he met was a little girl. At that time, the little girl thought he was a drowning man and fished him up from the river with an oar.

The little girl's name is Ye Zi, and she has a bit of fate with Ye Jun.

Xiao Yezi's parents are honest people, and when they saw Ye Jun coming back with their children, they smiled and said, "Why did you play so late, the food is almost cooked!" ”

"I don't have anything to grow in my lower body, and I have relied on you to take care of me for the past few days, so I caught a fish and added some food to the family!" Ye Jun smiled and took out the fish.

Xiao Yezi's father couldn't help but be surprised: "You went fishing?" Today is the day when the fire demon comes out, but luckily it's daytime, and you can't fish at night......"

"Yo, this is a water tiger, it's rare! If you take it to the city, you can sell it for two taels of silver! Xiao Yezi's mother didn't care so much, and happily hung up the fish.

Xiao Yezi's father scolded: "This old lady is not sensible at all...... The fish that Brother Ye frequented, why don't you go and cook it for Brother Ye to drink! ”

Xiao Yezi's mother was a little reluctant, what about two taels of silver...... However, thinking that today is the New Year, I will grit my teeth and open a meat.

A pot of boiled fish, a few plates of pickled vegetables, a small plate of lard residue, and a pot of turbid and yellowed rice wine.

This is the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. In this era, ordinary people can also get soaked in lard and meat during the New Year.

After three rounds of drinking, Ye Jun saw that Xiao Yezi's father was slightly drunk, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Nie, I heard that today is the day when the fire demon comes out, do you know what the fire demon is?" ”

"Fire demons are fire demons, monsters that eat people......"

Xiao Yezi's father didn't want to talk about it, and it could be that they ended up with the fire demon, most of which came from legends passed down from generation to generation, and they didn't know much about it.
