Chapter 1596: Sea Sacrifice Ceremony (3)
Hong Xingsheng held my hand and didn't seem to want me to deal with Hong Xingba.
I tilted my head to look at him: "What? ”
Hong Xingsheng shook his head: "I can't now, I can't, please Mr. Ou give me a face, don't do it at this time?" ”
"Oh?"
As a partner of the alliance, I really should take care of Hong Xingsheng's thoughts, so I stopped my steps and turned around and sat on the chair: "Second Elder, I won't go to trouble Hong Xingba today, but you have to give me a reason to sit here in peace." ”
Hong Xingsheng turned around and sat on the chair: "Isn't Mr. Ou interested in this sea sacrifice ceremony?" ”
"Sea sacrifice ceremony? Second Elder Hong said let's take a look. ”
I touched my stomach: "Why don't you serve a table of wine and food, and let's talk while drinking?" ”
Hong Xingsheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay, okay, Mr. is tired of coming these days, come, hurry up and prepare a table of banquets, and wash the dust for Mr. Ou." ”
Hong Xingsheng shouted outside, and then rubbed his hands and said, "Originally, I planned to send someone to take care of a few people in the past two days, but isn't this going to be a sea sacrifice ceremony?" I don't have enough manpower, so I didn't have the time, and when I take care of it here, you'll be back again. ”
Li Guanyi sneered: "Okay, Second Elder, don't talk if you don't have that heart, let's go straight to the point!" ”
Hong Xingsheng was blocked for a moment, but still smiled cheekily: "That, let's talk about the sea sacrifice ceremony!" ”
I nodded and said, "Okay, let's talk about the sea sacrifice ceremony." ”
"This sea sacrifice ceremony is to go to the ferry to worship the sea on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve every year."
Hong Xingsheng said.
"Chinese New Year's Eve?"
I stuck out my tongue: "It's going to be the New Year?" Damn, it's only been a long time, and it's the end of the year? ”
Hong Xingsheng nodded and said, "Yes, it's the New Year." A year has passed, and I am a year older! ”
I turned my head to look at Li Guanyi: "It's the New Year, let's be alone in a foreign land as strangers!" ”
Li Guanyi said with a smile: "I haven't been with my parents since I was two years old, it's home everywhere, and it's the same everywhere I spend the New Year!" ”
Artugeg also answered: "It turned out that it was going to be the New Year, alas, the New Year, but there was a disaster outside, should we do something?" ”
Suo San said with a smile: "Chinese New Year, our old street in Yin City is the most lively, whether it is from outside or born locally, the customs have been preserved." ”
I had a black line in my head: "This is talking to the second elder about business, you guys are crooked!" ”
Hong Xingsheng's face was green and red for a while, and he sneered to give himself a round game: "It's okay, it's okay, it's the New Year, everyone is happy, you can say whatever you want." ”
I waved my hand: "Let's talk about the sea sacrifice ceremony." ”
Hong Xingsheng hurriedly snatched the topic back: "This sea sacrifice ceremony is a big festival for the people of Tianyi City, and it can be regarded as a New Year's festival. ”
"Ferry? Is there still a river in Tianyi City? Where it leads, don't tell me it's a moat. ”
Li Guanyi's eyes straightened suddenly.
"Of course, it is a river leading to the Sea of Death, but this river can be entered at other times except during the sea sacrifice ceremony, and the consequences are unimaginable."
Hong Xingsheng explained.
I pondered for a moment and said, "Then what do you and Hong Xingba say before, let the sea god choose something, what do you mean?" ”
Hong Xingsheng rubbed his temples and said: "This, this is a colorful head left by the ancestor of the Hong family, that is, our Hong family has to take some gifts to the ferry to worship the sea, the sea god will take away some gifts every year, and the people who are taken away will be favored by the sea god, and the next year will be auspicious." ”
"So godly?"
I laughed and said, "How can this thing be explained?" Also, what the hell is the Poseidon? ”
Hong Xingsheng hurriedly waved his hand and said cautiously: "You can lighten it, this sea god is not a casual joke, in the sea of death, this sea god is powerful, and our Hong family is also because of his friendship with the sea god, so he has the opportunity to get the favor of the sea god." ”
While talking, a few housekeepers came in from outside and served a table of wine and food.
"Let's talk while we eat!"
Hong Xingsheng hurriedly raised his hand to let us sit down.
A few of us were not polite, went to the table to copy chopsticks, and feasted.
I asked while eating: "Then this should be a lot of people's business, how can it be your turn to be favored by the sea god with Hong Xingba?" ”
Hong Xingsheng said while watching us eat: "In previous years, whoever the sea god favored, he would leave a token, and this token was the sea crossing order!"
The Hong family is a total of our brothers' power, no matter who gets the sea order, they all have to hand it over, we will naturally symbolically give some subsidies to those who get the sea order, once the sea order is in hand, the trade between Tianyi City and Tianyi City every year needs to cross the sea order, and naturally we have to pay a certain fee, which is a lot of property, so ......"
"That's why you said that only your Hong family has a sea order? That's why you want us to help you capture this token? In the past, the ancestor of your Hong family was here, and no one dared to disobey his will, this year the Hongju people are gone, so Hong Xingba wants to swallow this sea crossing order alone this year, so you are fighting to handle this sea sacrifice ceremony alone? ”
I quickly plucked my belly, patted my stomach and said, "Does this sea god have any special hobbies?" ”
Hong Xingsheng shook his head and said: "No, in the past, this sea god received gifts based on his preferences, one year, he only collected a pig's head, and left the sea order, but the most murderous year, three people died, and the sea order was left."
Of course, it's only for one year, and the rest of the year, there are no dead people, only some ...... taken away."
When Hong Xingsheng said this, he couldn't help but laugh a little.
"Hey, I said Lao Hong, what did you take away, what do you mean!"
Li Guanyi couldn't help but ask curiously.
Hong Xingsheng laughed so much that his beard trembled a little, and he waved his hand again and again: "At that time, we were all at the ferry port, so it was inevitable to create some garbage, and there was a child who threw a banana peel on the ground, and the result was ......."
"The result? That kid's banana was taken away? ”
Artug laughed.
Hong Xingsheng smiled, took a sip of wine and said, "No, no, it's the child's banana peel, the banana peel was taken away by the sea god, leaving a sea crossing order for the child." This kid is also in my vein, and I gave him fifty yellow paper talismans in exchange for this sea-crossing order! ”
A banana peel?
I'll go, this sea god, it's really wonderful!
