Blackwater –

There was a knock on the door early in the morning in the small courtyard near the mountain where there was no one around.

Chu Shan went to open the door, and there was a middle-aged man in gray and linen at the door, with two baskets on the ground, which contained fresh vegetables.

Seeing Chu Shan, he was the first to smile on his face: "I only learned that the owner of the mountain courtyard is back today, the villain came a little late, these dishes are just picked by the villain from his own vegetable garden today, and give them to the adults to taste." ”

Chu Shan was a little confused: "No, we ...... The owner of this courtyard is not here, so I'm afraid you've sent it to the wrong place. ”

The man still smiled: "That lord once said that whoever can open the gate of the mountain courtyard is the master of the mountain courtyard. I'll put the things at the door, you take them, and I'll bring you fresh ones tomorrow, and I'll collect this basket tomorrow. Oh, by the way, there is a lantern festival in the city today, you can come and see if you are interested, it is very lively. ”

After the man finished saying with a smile, Chu Shan didn't have a chance to refuse, and the man left directly.

Chu Shan was alone in a daze facing the two large baskets of vegetables.

"Brother, what's wrong, who is it? Ah, so many things? ”

Chu Ke'er saw that Chu Shan had opened the door and not come back for so long, so she came over to take a look with some worry, and saw two large baskets of things.

Chu Shan scratched his head, with some helplessness in his voice: "It's a resident of the city, you should know the owner of this courtyard and come to deliver something." Forget it, let's move things in first, and ask Uncle Xiao how to get such food. ”

didn't let Chu Ke'er touch his hands, Chu Shan carried two big baskets into the yard alone.

"Little uncle, little uncle, come out quickly."

Ding Sese pushed open the door, and these two baskets of seasonal vegetables came into his eyes.

"It's ......"

"Sent by the people down the mountain."

Chu Shan repeated the man's words to Ding Sese.

Ding Se said: "Take it down, anyway, I'm tired of eating Bigu Dan these days, so I just want to taste other things." ”

"Uh...... Uncle Junior, do you know how to cook? ”

Tinsese: ......

Forget that you have to have a cooking skill to eat a hot meal.

Looking at Chu Ke'er, Chu Ke'er shook his head even more hurriedly.

Shinya: "If you don't dislike it, I can try." ”

Then he saw Chu Shan take out two freshly killed chickens and ducks from the basket......

Shinya: "You better dislike it, in fact, I won't ...... it"

All:......

Ding Se shrugged: "Okay, let it go, the owner of this courtyard should be back soon, and I will hand it over to him when the time comes." ”

Ding Sese never said who the owner of this courtyard was, only said that it was his friend, and Chu Shan was especially interested in Ding Sese's friend.

"Really? Uncle Junior, when will he come? Isn't he also a very powerful person? ”

Ding Seser smiled: "Yes. By the way, he said there will be a lantern tonight, right, and he's idle at home anyway, so let's go out for a walk tonight? ”

Naturally, no one objected to Ding Sese's proposal, and the demon was locked up first, anyway, they were not in a hurry to deal with him, if they really did something ruthless, maybe the people of Miasma City could really find him.

Ding Sese, Chu Shan, and Chu Ke'er had never participated in any lantern festivals, and as for Zhenya, they were separated from Ben instantly, and no one cared about the two of them.

And Chu Ke'er at the Lantern Festival was obviously a little happier than before.

I don't know what kind of festival the Black Sea is today, the streets are full of people, everyone wearing masks on their faces, masks of different shapes, holding lanterns in their hands, shuttling through the streets.

"Uncle Junior, it's so strange, the mask and lantern here are in the shape of a fish."

They were impatient to crowd through the crowd, and when they saw the flower boats operating in the river around the market, they rented one, and it was quite a novelty to watch the people in the street in the river.

"I think it's the patron saint of the Black Sea, I've heard that the patron saint of the Black Sea is the fish."

"This guest officer is right, we live on the sea in the Black Sea, and legend has it that there is a fish god in the sea who guards our people in the Black Sea, so that the fisherman can return smoothly."

Chu Ke'er looked curiously at the boatman who answered the call: "Is there really a fish god?" Has anyone seen it? ”

The boatman propped up the boat, with a mask on his face, and a fish-shaped lantern hung from the bow.

"Of course there is, my dad has seen it."

At the mention of this, the boatman's face was proud and proud, "My father used to be a fisherman, and he relied on the Black Sea to fish. By the way, a few guest officers should be new here, right? Then you should try our Black Sea fish, it tastes delicious, and I think our Black Sea immortals often go to eat it. ”

Chu Ke'er and Chu Shan didn't want to eat any fish, so they perfunctorily agreed to a few sentences, and pestered the boatman about the fish god.

The boatman smiled and said, "When my father was young, he went to sea and encountered a storm, and several guest officers may not know that people floating on the sea are afraid of encountering this kind of stormy weather, and those who can come back are considered lucky."

At that time, my boat was not big, and when it came to such a stormy day, the wind and waves at sea could overturn my boat with a single swing. Later, it really turned over.

At that time, my father thought to himself, maybe this time he would confess on the Black Sea, my father was drowning in the sea, and suddenly he felt that the surroundings were bright, and more importantly, he could breathe in the sea!

He vaguely saw the shadow of the fish god, and took his body with him, and instantly brought it out of the water.

When my father woke up again, it was already dawn, and the boat that had been overturned by the waves was also sent back by the fish god, and my father lay down on the boat, and his clothes were wet, and there was no injury at all. ”

"Well, could it be that your dad is having a nightmare? Actually, there was no storm or anything like that? ”

The boatman shook his head: "How can it be, the clothes are all wet, and the things in the boat are soaked in the sea, and they are all dripping with water." ”

Chu Ke'er: "Then what do you see the fish god look like?" ”

"That's it...... Glowing, with eyes as big as two lanterns, a body like a hill, and two rows of fangs in its mouth......"

"Poof...... I think the folk monster records are all made up like this. Brother, you didn't see this from the book, did you? ”

Not to be believed, and the boatman is not annoyed.

He still had a smile on his face: "Oh, how can it be, it's all true." Hehe, but my father didn't go to sea when he came back that time, saying that his life had run out, and if there was any more accidents, the fish god would not save him a second time.

He was floating in the outer city and on the Black Sea, carrying the ship before him and carrying people from both sides of the strait across the sea. But today's holiday, my father is not out to do this kind of business, he is a gentleman in a restaurant in the city today, and he will talk about his experience of meeting the fish god. I'm not right, if you have time to take a look at the guest officers later, you will definitely not say that it is fake. ”

Ding Sese smiled: "Then we'll go and see later, but is today's lantern festival also because of the fish god?" ”

"Isn't it? Today is the feeding of the sea, and once a year to worship the fish god. ”
