She runs a store in another world

Chapter 76 The Second Shop (16)

Three months later, the restaurant moved to another location. When Wen Ying opened the door in the morning, a cool breeze came from the shop. It was a river.

At this moment, people gathered on both sides of the river. A boat hung with red silk was slowly approaching, covered with bouquets of flowers. A woman in a wedding dress was sitting on the boat.

Is this getting married?

Wen Ying had never seen such an ancient wedding, so she ran into the crowd and planned to join in the fun.

"Whose family is getting married here?" Wen Ying asked the woman next to him. For such a big battle, it should be a reputable family here.

The woman looked happy, as if her family was having a wedding, "You must be from out of town, this is the River God getting married. This girl is the first wife appointed by the River God in so many years."

Wen Ying felt that he had heard wrongly, and his expression went blank for a moment. This world of cultivating immortals also practiced feudal superstition.

In mythology, the River God loves young and beautiful girls. He married the beautiful Luo Shen, but he was still not satisfied. He wanted to marry a beautiful wife from the mortal world every three years. If the people were not willing, then he would cause trouble. The flood rises.

The system says that this world is so poor in spiritual energy that there are very few people who have become immortals. Where can a river god come from? A river demon is suitable.

Wen Ying looked at the girl on the boat. She was wearing a wedding dress with a red background and gold embroidery. She had a red hijab with long and delicate tassels hanging from the edge, making her expression unclear.

Across the river bank stood a man wearing a green shirt. The breeze blew by, causing his hairband to sway slightly. His eyebrows were delicate and bright, and his appearance was resplendent, but he seemed slightly indifferent.

Um? Isn't that Pei Tongguang?
Wen Ying looked at the man opposite her in surprise. When she wanted to take a closer look, the boat moved in front of her and blocked the man opposite her.

When the boat finally sailed away from her eyes, she looked again and saw that there were crowds of people there, but the people she just saw were gone.

Did she see it wrong?
Wen Ying turned around and left. There was nothing interesting about this scene.

In the restaurant, Ah Yue made wonton noodles and was bringing them out. When she saw Wen Ying coming from outside, she asked, "Have you changed the place?"

"Well, but this place is not very nice. A sacrifice is being held outside, and the River God is getting married." For Wen Ying, this is a sacrifice, sacrificing the life of a young girl to the River God, and those people are killing the girl who is being sacrificed.

Ah Yue heard about the river god's sacrifice and discovered that she had been to this place before. It was a small town in Shuozhou. When she came here before, there was no river god here. She guessed that the demon in the river was causing trouble.

Over there, in an inn in Qingshui City, Chen Tingxu and others were sitting in the lobby. Pei Tongguang came from outside and sat down.

"Little Junior Uncle, what are you doing?" Chen Tingxu asked. They had just arrived at Qingshui City, and Junior Junior Uncle said they were going somewhere and they were not allowed to follow. It seems that Junior Junior Uncle had never been to Qingshui City.

"Went to see the River God get married." Pei Tongguang took a sip of tea.

"The River God is getting married?" Chen Tingxu's tone revealed some curiosity. Does the River God want to marry a wife?
"Many places offer sacrifices to the river god to pray for good weather, but they only offer some incense. This is my first time marrying a wife to the river god." Song Jinghao knew that some places would even choose young people. Girls perform ritual dances.

"It's just the demon who is cheating and deceiving mortals." Xu Zhijie said, since he is a god, how can he marry a mortal woman? Only demons will always think about harming people.

"Will the artifact be in the hands of the so-called River God?" The reason why they went down the mountain this time was because of the appearance of the artifact. The five ancient artifacts include Xuanyuan Sword, Fuxi Qin, Nuwa's, Kunlun Mirror, and Kongtong Seal.

It is said that more than hundreds of years ago, after the five artifacts sealed a demon, they dispersed in the world. Only the Xuanyuan Sword and the Kunlun Mirror were recovered.

Among them, the Xuanyuan Sword is kept by their Shangqing Sect, the Kunlun Mirror is in Xuanyue Pavilion in Nanminghai, and the other three are in the mortal world.

Some time ago, Xuanyuan Sword and Kunlun Mirror moved at the same time, which was a sign of the emergence of other artifacts.

After Wen Ying finished eating the wonton noodles, she lay on the table in a daze. It was so boring. It was hard to live without a mobile phone.

The system said that this store can only be seen by immortal cultivators with spiritual veins, and not by ordinary people. However, even if cultivators pass by, they may not come in, so there are few customers. She has only visited six times in the past three months. guest.

"Are you bored?" the system said.

When Wen Ying heard the system's condolences, she sat up excitedly, "I'm not bored."

"I think you're quite boring." The system said to itself, completely ignoring what Wen Ying said. "The River God's marriage is very interesting. You can go and see it."

No, she didn't want to. What's so interesting about a monster marrying a wife? If she wanted to watch it, she could just go back and watch two episodes of Journey to the West.

Wen Ying's vision went dark and he almost died.

As soon as Ah Yue finished washing the dishes, she saw Wen Ying looking half dead and asked worriedly: "What's wrong?"

"Pack it up, let's go see how the river god gets a wife." Wen Ying said sadly.

Two people are walking in the streets. Today there are many flower sellers in the streets, and pedestrians on the road are holding flowers in their hands. If you ignore that the river god is getting married, then this scene must be beautiful and dreamy.

Following the flow of people, Wen Ying and the others quickly found the place of sacrifice. There was a high platform in the middle of the water, surrounded by flowers. Boys and girls in colorful clothes danced on the high platform.

The wizard wore strange clothes, with strange symbols painted on his face with colorful paint, and sang a sacrificial chant, "The Dragon King, the spirit, dominates the rivers, stirs up clouds and rains, and moisturizes all things. Today, with respect, we offer incense and candles to worship the Dragon King. Pray for everlasting rivers and no danger of floods or droughts.”

And the bride stood in the center of the altar, silent and unable to resist. Her relatives and friends who once laughed, her neighbors, and the passers-by she passed by all restrained her hands and feet. Covered her mouth.

A whirlpool rose from the water, and on the high water column, a man in red slowly flew towards the altar, his wide robe and wide sleeves fluttering in the wind as he walked.

As if they were getting married in the world, they worshiped heaven and earth, and the couple bowed to each other. People under the altar threw the flowers in their hands onto the high platform to represent blessings.

The moment Ah Yue lowered her head, the wind lifted her hijab slightly, and she seemed to see something glowing on the bride's face, like scales.
