Chapter 323: Sea Sacrifice Ceremony

There seemed to be the sound of something rustling in the darkness.

Bai Qianyu stood in the dark, not daring to move, but her hands suddenly touched something cold, and she screamed "ah" in fright, but she heard Mo Guiyun in her ears and said in a deep voice: "White girl, don't be afraid, it's me!"

His cold hand held her hands, but he felt the woman next to him tremble even more.

"Xiaomo," Bai Qianyu tried his best to stabilize his mind, and asked the sentence that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time: "You...... Tell you the truth, are you a soul hunter?"

Mo Guiyun was silent for a moment: "Is this important to you?"

Bai Qianyu trembled and did not speak.

Mo Guiyun accentuated his tone: "Are you really afraid of me?"

"Little Mo ......" Bai Qianyu bit her lip, she couldn't see Mo Guiyun's expression in the dark, but she tried her best to suppress the fear in her heart, and plucked up the courage to say: "No matter what you become, you are my friend." ”

"Friend......" Mo Guiyun chewed on these two words and suddenly sneered.

Bai Qianyu's heart jumped up, and he thought he was going to have a seizure, but he sighed and said slowly: "My identity, one day, you will understand......"

The sigh seemed to come from the depths of his chest, so deep, so cold, that even his fingers holding her grew cold.

His fingers slowly loosened, and suddenly heard a "plop" sound, as if something fell heavily on the floor, Bai Qianyu was frightened, reached out to touch him, but pounced.

"Little Mo ......?" she called out in a lost voice.

From the ground came his faint reply, "Here I am." ”

Bai Qianyu followed the sound and touched his body lying on the ground, only to feel that he was cold, as if he was shivering, and said again and again: "What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you, Xiaomo?"

She lay on the ground and touched the candle around, and finally touched her hand, but remembered that the fire fold was still on the table next to the door, and was about to get up to find the fire fold, but saw the light blue fire flash, lit up on Mo Guiyun's index finger.

The flame was extremely faint, and it was not like a purple flame that was burning with spiritual power, as if it could be blown out in one breath, Bai Qianyu didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly leaned over, lit the candle on the fire, put it on the floor, and then held Mo Guiyun with both hands and helped him to the bed.

Mo Guiyun's body was very cold, his fingers touched it as if he had touched a piece of thousand-year-old ice, Bai Qianyu wrapped his coat for him, and covered the two quilts on the bed for him, but he still seemed to be very cold.

Bai Qianyu thought about it, and then thought of the kitchen at the stern of the boat to find some hot water to warm him, but was pulled by Mo Guiyun.

He took her hand like an ice hoop around her wrist.

This feeling made Bai Qianyu recall that when Wei Xiao was sick with a fever, he held her hand, which was as hot as tongs.

How could the two of them get sick inexplicably on the same night and in the same boat? Is there really something strange about this boat?

Thinking of this, Bai Qianyu shuddered a little.

The candle flame on the floor shone faintly, and Mo Guiyun's face was hidden in the shadows, looking a little blurry.

"White girl," Bai Qianyu coughed lightly when he heard him, and said, "Don't worry about me, I'm sick, just rest by yourself." ”

Bai Qianyu hesitated and said, "You are a soul hunter, will you also get sick?"

Mo Guiyun's face changed slightly, but he was not angry, but smiled faintly: "I want to ask Miss Bai a question." ”

Bai Qianyu said: "Please speak." ”

Mo Guiyun glanced at her, and there was some unfathomable expression in his eyes, and he said slowly: "If, I mean, if the white girl meets Wei Xiao and me at the same time, I don't know, she will like it...... Well, which of us would you have a better impression of?"

Bai Qianyu never expected him to ask such a question, looking at his expression, it didn't seem like he was confessing, he was stunned, and said: "I can't answer this question, but coincidentally, when I met the two of you for the first time, you were both seriously injured and in a desperate situation, as if now, the two of you are sick together." ”

Mo Guiyun looked at her without blinking, and his eyes were as deep as a pool of water: "Miss Bai thinks, are these all coincidences?"

Bai Qianyu was stunned, and only felt that his question seemed to have a deep meaning, but what it meant, he couldn't figure it out for a while, so he had to say: "It should be...... It's all a coincidence!"

Mo Guiyun let go of the hand holding her and closed his eyes, as if he was tired: "I'm tired, Bai Girl, please go back, I think Wei Xiao must have been waiting next door for a long time, Bai Girl is here, there are indeed many inconveniences." ”

Bai Qianyu picked up the burning half of the candle from the ground, put it on his bedside, and said, "Then I'll go, you can sleep well, and I'll come to see you tomorrow morning." ”

Mo Guiyun closed his eyes and said, "No need. ”

The tone was very cold.

Bai Qianyu walked to the door, looked back at him again, he seemed to be conscious, and slowly opened his mouth and said: "I only come out at night to relax on the boat, it is too lively during the day, I don't like it, if there is any sea festival or other activities tomorrow, the white girl doesn't have to call me, even when she eats fish." ”

Bai Qianyu looked at him with a cold look, and he didn't know where he offended him, but he was so withdrawn by nature, so he slowly walked out of the door and slowly closed the door from the outside.

When she returned to her cabin, Wei Xiao had already fallen asleep, he was so sick, but he still moved inside, sleeping face in, leaving the outside to Bai Qianyu.

Bai Qianyu quietly climbed into bed, leaned over, put his hand on Wei Xiao's forehead and tried it, feeling that it didn't seem to be as hot as before, he relaxed slightly, and then lay down and slept well.

She had just closed her eyes and suddenly felt a movement on the bed, Wei Xiao turned over, hugged her tightly, and muttered, "Are you back?"

The hot breath exhaled from his mouth and nose was still scorching, Bai Qianyu coughed lightly, and Wei Xiao's right hand patted her on the back: "I'd better stay away from you, and the province will infect you." He withdrew his hand, rolled over, and still lay alone against the wall.

He didn't open his eyes from beginning to end, Bai Qianyu didn't know if he woke up or was talking nonsense in his dream, he turned sideways to face him, one hand gently put on his waist, and suddenly felt a hot hand, and Wei Xiao held her hand tightly, and after a while, he heard him snort heavily, and seemed to be asleep.

There were too many things that happened this night, Bai Qianyu felt a little tired, and at first she couldn't sleep for half a day, and when she fell asleep, she slept very deeply, and she woke her up when she heard the noise outside the door.

She rubbed her eyes, opened her eyes in a daze, but what greeted her was Wei Xiao's eyes, she was startled, she woke up most of the sleep, and subconsciously reached out to touch Wei Xiao's forehead, and then touched her own, and felt that his forehead was not very hot, and it seemed to be half better overnight.

She was still puzzled, but her arm was pulled by Wei Xiao, sat up from the bed, Wei Xiao leaned over the head of the bed, and said with a smile: "I'm all right, you get up quickly, everyone is waiting for you outside!"

"Wait for me?" Bai Qianyu said strangely, raised his hand and probed Wei Xiao's forehead again, and saw that his forehead was no longer hot at all.

At this time, the door was pushed open, Clover and the little fox ran in like a gust of wind, both of them had a look of excitement on their faces, Clover shouted at her and Wei Xiao: "Little white girl, Wei Xiao, you come quickly, just wait for the two of you, just carry out the knife opening ceremony, and get out of the pot!"

The little fox also called twice to urge.

Bai Qianyu said while dressing, fastening the buttons on the outer clothes, and fastening the belt: "What is the knife?

Before she finished speaking, she was pulled by the clover and walked out of the door, and as soon as her feet stepped out of the door, a burst of cheers immediately sounded outside the door, and everyone said in unison: "The master has finally come out!"

Bai Qianyu glanced at it, only to see that today is still a clear sky, on the cloudless clear sky, a dazzling sun, is shining on the deck, and in the middle of the deck, at this moment is standing a large cauldron, the pot is as big as a ding, a stove at the bottom, stuffed with firewood, the pot is full of water, next to a dwarf wood is a few long, a row of knives of all sizes, the light is shiny, sharp as a cut.

Bai Qianyu didn't know why, suddenly heard the sound of "popping", the men who begged for the sea were bare-chested, revealing their knotted and strong muscles, tied the cross-male fish with a straw rope, and lifted it up with a wooden stake, the red fish body, reflecting the rising sun, suddenly appeared colorful, as transparent, the huge fish tail hung down on the ground, "snapped" and slapped the deck, looking unwilling to die.

Zhenzhen walked at the end of the seven strong men, and when they reached the middle of the deck, they shouted "Release!" and the seven strong men unloaded the ropes at the same time and placed the smelt on the deck.

As soon as the fish landed on the deck, it jumped upward, and its tail fanned with great force, and it actually fell to the ground with the rate of two men who were close to it, and its body rushed up, and when it jumped, it was about to jump out of the side of the ship and jump into the sea, but when it saw Zhenzhen holding a dagger in his hand, between his eyebrows, he muttered a curse, and the dagger flew out with a "whoosh", and the dagger tip was pointing downward, facing the body of the fish, releasing a faint purple light, and the fish was like encountering an invisible wall ship, "snap", and fell back to the deck, rolled up two white eyes, and looked at her angrily.

Zhenzhen turned a blind eye, walked forward barefoot, grabbed the rope on the fish with one hand, dragged it to the side of the long one, and saluted with his arms: "Before the knife, please allow us to ask the sea people to sacrifice a sea!"

There were a few kinds of incense and candles, paper money, and firecrackers on the long days, and the three gold diggers went to sea for a long time, knowing that this is the sea sacrifice ceremony that the fishermen must perform before catching big fish and killing the fish, and the fishermen believe that the fish are the gifts of the sea god, and the bigger and more precious the fish, the heavier the gift of the sea god, and the more grand the sea sacrifice ceremony will be.

Although all the rituals on the ship are simplified, a few things of incense and paper, setting off firecrackers towards the sea, and cutting fish to salute the sea are essential.

Everyone knows that the fishermen of the sea revere the god of the sea, and this custom is very pious and solemn to them, so they all hold their breath and watch Zhenzhen worship with a few men who beg for the sea.

Zhu Yi didn't know when he squeezed from the crowd to Bai Qianyu's side, and said expectantly: "Miss Bai, the weather is very good today!"

Bai Qianyu glanced at him and replied politely, "It's very good." ”

Seeing her answer, Zhu Yi subconsciously took another step forward, with a smile on his face: "Did the white girl sleep well last night?"

Bai Qianyu still said politely: "It's not good, I wake up from time to time, maybe I haven't slept on the ship." ”

Zhu Yi's face froze, and said: "The white girl may have collided with the sea god, so he sent his shrimp soldiers and crab generals to disturb your sweet dreams while the white girl was asleep, think about it, did you hear whispers in your ears in your sleep last night, or did you feel that there were small whiskers and small pliers scratching your nose and ears?"

Bai Qianyu thought about it, but couldn't think of it, and said suspiciously: "It seems to be ...... Not really!"

Zhu Yi became even more nervous, grabbed Bai Qianyu's hand and said: "That's even worse! The one sent by the sea god is not the shrimp soldier and crab general, but his turtle prime minister, this turtle prime minister is the best at ghost meditation, but I am afraid that the white girl has fallen for his tricks, and her soul is a little unlikely, so she can't sleep well every night!"

Bai Qianyu was shocked when he heard him, and just wanted to ask him how to crack it, but when he saw Wei Xiao looking at Zhu Yi from the side, he coughed heavily.

Zhu Yi didn't know why, he was a little afraid of Wei Xiao, when he heard him cough, he trembled, and hurriedly put down the hand that grabbed Bai Qianyu, and laughed: "Actually, it's not a big deal, just a moment when they worship the god of the sea, the white girl personally takes a knife and cuts off a piece of meat from the body of the cross-male fish and throws it into the sea, and it's fine!"

Only then did Bai Qianyu realize that he had taken the opportunity to take the opportunity to rub himself with oil and water, but Wei Xiao's vinegar was also a little heavier.

couldn't help but whisper to Wei Xiao: "Don't worry, I have my own sense of proportion." ”

Wei Xiao looked away with his eyes and said quietly: "With your rough temperament, not only can't you see that others have bad intentions and bad intentions, but he sold you, you don't know yet!"
