"Yes, it's a sacrifice." Lao Yan took a last puff, and the cigarette butt glowed orange.
Throwing the cigarette butt into the fire, Lao Yan swallowed the smoke from his mouth into his lungs.
"Isn't that what those myths and stories say, incense and sacrifice? These gods probably need these things. Even if they really don't like it, at least they won't hate it. Then kill two fat pigs and two live cows and buy some rough Just offer some incense and worship."
"Okay." Several other people in the team had no objections.
"If you can have a good relationship with this Jiang Shen, you will have an extra supporter." Lao Yan's cloudy eyes flashed with a glimmer of light.
After all, they are hunting near Yuzhou now and don't dare to stray too far away. And Yuzhou is built along the river.
"Hey, tell me, did those people in ancient times worship these river gods and water gods in this way? Is it because these river gods and water gods can protect them?" Huang Tao seemed to be very interested in the river gods and asked enthusiastically.
But the others didn't seem to be interested in the God of Water and the God of Rivers. A few of them yawned, then rolled back their sleeping bags and snored.
Huang Tao was not discouraged and ran to the door of the stone cave. Her beast, the water crocodile, was squatting next to it, staring straight at the tree in front of her with dead fish eyes.
Huang Tao sat on the back of the aquatic crocodile, holding his chin with both hands, looking longingly at the Yangtze River below.
Water God, what kind of existence are you
"You haven't slept yet." Lao Yan came out from behind and sat down on the ground without caring about the dust on the ground.
"No, I can't sleep." Huang Tao shook his head.
"Are you still thinking about the Water God?" Lao Yan seemed to see through Huang Tao's thoughts.
"Yeah." Huang Tao nodded and turned to look at Lao Yan, "You know, I encountered dirty things when I was a child. I was only five years old at that time. My mother had a quarrel with my grandparents at my grandmother's house and got angry. He carried me back home all night from home.
On the way home, we happened to pass by a cemetery, and then my mother heard my grandfather calling her name from behind. My mother's face changed at that time, and she told me not to look back, and then my mother trotted all the way with me on her back.
But that voice kept following us. At first it was calling my mother's name, but when my mother ignored it, it called me.
I'm not sensible, so when I heard someone calling me, I turned my head stupidly.
I turned around and saw an old man in yellow clothes standing behind me with a kind face. He held a small yellow jacket in his hand, and then put the jacket on my back. I was young at the time and saw I was so frightened by this scene that I didn't dare to resist or speak.
After I returned home, I became seriously ill. I went to the town to see a doctor and got medicine, but it didn't work.
Finally, my mother took me to find my grandmother
I told my grandma what happened that day,
My grandmother was the goddess of the ten miles and eight villages. She took me to a temple in the back mountain to worship a stone statue in the temple. She told me that this was the mountain god.
After praying to the mountain god, I went back that night and got well after a good sleep.
From that day on I believed in these things. "Huang Tao smiled, "Later I told other friends about this, but they didn't believe it. They thought I made up the story, or that I was ignorant when I was young and my eyesight was dazzled. "
"That's right." Lao Yan nodded, "Some things are really hard to say."
Three days later, there was a relatively flat area on the bank of the Yangtze River.
A large pure iron cauldron stood on the ground. A large number of incense candles were burning in the bronze cauldron, and the rich fragrance filled the air.
There are several small tables in front of the big cauldron, with some fruits and other sacrificial offerings placed on the table.
Someone originally asked if he wanted a boy or girl, but Lao Yan slapped him on the head and said, "Boy or girl, why don't you steam lamb, steam bear paws, steam deer tail, roast duck, roast chicken, roast goose" Woolen cloth."
However, although the names of the vegetables above were not there, there were two big, fat and strong cattle that had been knocked unconscious and tied to the ground.
Huang Tao has learned some methods of sacrifice, which she learned from her grandmother when she was a child.
Because Huang Tao was more interested in this aspect of things after that incident when she was a child, and interest is the best teacher, so she studied a lot carefully, and now she can still barely recall some of the steps.
Time passed by, and all the steps of the sacrifice were completed, but there was still no movement in the Yangtze River in front of me.
"Is it useless at all?" someone whispered.
"Shut up." Someone next to him yelled in a low voice.
"Sincerity leads to wisdom, maybe as long as the intention comes to mind, it will be fine." Someone next to him whispered.
Huang Tao looked at the Yangtze River eagerly, with some expectation and vague desire in her heart.
Yangtze River, deep.
A certain consciousness suddenly noticed something strange.
Deep in the sea of consciousness, a strange heat flow suddenly seeped into its soul from a mysterious place.
Although the number is small, the role played is insignificant.
But the effect is indeed very obvious.
Just like when people are hungry and want to eat, a small mouthful of rice cannot satisfy people, but it arouses people's desire and makes people want to eat more.
This feeling is
The Growing Brain followed the source of this power.
"It seems that the Water God is not coming, captain, why don't we leave." Someone said to Lao Yan.
Lao Yan looked at Huang Tao's back in front of him and couldn't help but sigh. Huang Tao is twenty-one years old this year. Both in size and personality, he looks a bit like his daughter who was eaten by monsters during the disaster. This is what Lao Yan thinks of Huang Tao. Tao Duo has a reason to take care of.
Whirring whirring.
The wind suddenly blew by the river.
it's very windy.
The flags rustled.
Woo woo woo
The beast masters walked back and forth uneasily, whimpering in fear or vigilance.
The water surface suddenly broke open, and a huge hand made of water broke through the water surface and grabbed the mountain behind it.
Wow!
The water surface broke open again, and another giant hand emerged from the water and grabbed another mountain.
Although it was not the first time they witnessed it, seeing this scene again shocked them.
Wow!
The water surface is elevated, and the sun penetrates the water and shines on the shore. The entire shore looks like it is covered with a layer of light blue gauze.
Not far away, a team of monster hunters was hunting. Suddenly, they saw a huge commotion on the river at the foot of the mountain. A super huge water man stood up from the Yangtze River, not even much shorter than the mountain.
"Damn it, what the hell is this? Why is Earth Star becoming more terrifying every year now?"
"Look! Run quickly!"
"Wait a minute, brother, look at that shore." Someone pointed to the shore.
Just on the shore, the group of people did not flee, but raised their heads as if to have a conversation with this unprecedented super giant creature.
Some people even took out their mobile phones to take pictures.
In the cell phone picture taken, an indifferent, cold voice echoed between heaven and earth.
"I am Shen Chang, the water god of the Yangtze River. I was born during the Eastern Han Dynasty and have protected the people of the Yangtze River for more than two thousand years..."
