Chapter 2113 The legend of the sea god in the small fishing village
The children all gathered around to play with Haibao.
Some hold its neck and rub it intimately, and some want to ride on it... Haibao seems to like playing with them too. Because in terms of mental age, Haibao is actually about the same age.
The reason why it is so lively is because today is the third day of the lunar calendar, which is the unique "Thanksgiving Festival" of this small fishing village - derived from the legend passed down from generation to generation in their village.
Basically, the Jiangnan area has a long history and most people believe in this aspect, so many places have their own gods.
Unlike the systematic gods such as Taoism and Buddhism, most of them worship primitive natural gods.
Such as the legend of this small fishing village...
About a few hundred years ago, this was not a small fishing village. There were only two or three fishermen families living here next to each other.
One night, there was a violent storm!
In that era, people lived in thatched houses made of mud and bamboo strips, which were not sturdy. In the face of such violent storms, they were often destroyed...
So in the dark night, these two or three families of fishermen were terrified. What was even more frightening was that after their houses were shattered, they saw two huge red lanterns rising from the sea in the distance!
And what was very strange was that these two red lanterns, which were as big as millstones, did not go out despite the violent storm, and even moved quickly in their direction.
When they got closer, a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky - illuminating the surrounding area as brightly as daylight. They were shocked to discover that it was not a red lantern at all. Instead, it was two huge eyes!
OMG!
It turned out that this was actually a sea monster. It was a sea monster that climbed out of the sea. On a stormy night, it came ashore to eat people.
The two or three poor fishermen immediately started shouting in fear. The women, old people, and children all started wailing in fear, their voices drowned in the heavy rain. The adult men picked up the harpoons and tried to resist.
Protect your family...
But facing this sea monster whose eyes are almost as big as their bodies, how can they have even half a chance of winning and surviving?
Just when everyone thought they were going to die tonight, suddenly!
Blah blah, blah blah!
The sea seemed to be boiling again. The sound of rolling waves actually faintly drowned out the thunder in the sky. Two more large blue lanterns like millstones emerged from the sea.
Based on their previous experience, these fishermen immediately guessed - these are the eyes of another terrifying sea monster, right?!
OMG!
Their hearts were broken and they were crying.
One fearful sea monster would have killed them without a place to die, and now two came? Could it be because they had committed some evil in their previous lives?
But the child is innocent!
At this moment, these adult men didn't even have the courage or thought to resist. They could only watch helplessly as the giant sea monster with blood-red eyes that first appeared ran towards us...
…
The huge body stepped on the ground, making a rumbling sound. The ground shook slightly, like an earthquake!
Seeing that everyone will die violently.
Suddenly, something unexpected happened.
The sea monster with blue eyes that came ashore behind jumped up. Its claws stretched forward and pulled out wing-like objects similar to membranes from both sides of its body.
Suddenly it flew up!
The speed was very fast. He came from behind and immediately caught up with the sea monster in front of him.
Hit it hard.
Boom!!!
The deafening sound rang in the ears of these fishermen, and they subconsciously covered their ears. Then they saw the light of lightning and thunder, and a sea monster much larger than their thatched hut was directly knocked away!
It flipped around in the air and fell not far away. The ground shook like a miniature earthquake, and women, children, and the elderly were all staggering.
The blue-eyed sea monster knocked away the red-eyed sea monster in front of it and did not stop. It did not even look at the fishermen. It continued to fly towards them and landed on them... and they started fighting fiercely!
Not only that, there were all kinds of rays of light flying around, and the huge force cracked the surrounding earth and even destroyed several small hills not far away.
To these simple and simple fishermen, such a scene is almost like a fairy tale. It is simply unimaginable!
After being stunned for a long time, an older fisherman suddenly reacted. He opened his arms and shouted loudly: "It's the Poseidon, it's the Poseidon who saved us! The huge sea monster with blue eyes in the back is completely
It’s not a sea monster, it’s the sea god who cares for us hard-working fishermen.”
When he shouted this, the other fishermen suddenly realized it!
That’s right!
That behemoth with beautiful blue eyes was definitely not a sea monster, but the sea god who protected and protected them. Otherwise, how could it have saved all their lives at the critical moment when they were about to suffer disaster?
Because of "Poseidon", everyone saved their lives.
That day happened to be the third day of the lunar calendar. So many years later, the two or three fishermen here gradually developed into a seaside fishing village with hundreds of people, and the legend about the "Poseidon" was also passed down from generation to generation. Now it has formed a
Plant the customs unique to their village.
On the third day of every month, a bonfire party will be held. All the people in the village gather together to congratulate their rescuers and new students, and at the same time, they also thank and offer sacrifices to the Poseidon who saved them...
"So, little guys, our village was saved by the blessing of Poseidon. Without Poseidon, our village would not exist! You must remember that our God-Thanksgiving Festival must be passed down from generation to generation."
An old fisherman with gray hair said kindly to the children who were surrounding him and listening to stories.
All this is what he said! This can be regarded as a tradition.
Haibao and Wei Ke were also nearby, playing with the children, eating delicious seafood barbecue, drinking sweet rice wine, and listening to the stories with gusto.
The two of them chatted through the spiritual consciousness.
"Sister Wei Ke, what on earth is that Poseidon? It seems quite interesting."
Wei Ke smiled and shook his head: "Little girl, after listening to this story, I think that the Poseidon and the like are probably just wishful misunderstandings of these villagers."
Misunderstand?
Haibao doesn't understand.
Wei Ke explained it: "For ordinary people, they cannot understand powerful existences like us. Especially in ancient times, Taoism, magic and the like were no different from gods in their eyes.
From the story the old man told just now, I think the truth is probably like this..."
