Early in the morning, there was a deafening sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers in Shuilu Town.
In Shuilu Town, the sacrificial festival has begun!
Lin Tian also woke up early from his practice, and after breakfast in the restaurant, he mixed into the crowd and headed towards the River God Temple where he was worshipped.
What is worshiped in the Heshen Temple in Shuilu Town is a faceless human statue with the obvious female body.
The god has no face, implying that God has thousands of faces. The gods in everyone's eyes are different, and everyone has a god in their hearts.
Of course, there may be another meaning. Perhaps many townspeople in Shuilu Town had seen the 'river god' at that time, but the appearance of the river god they saw was different.
Because the appearance cannot be unified, so they built such a faceless statue!
Lin Tian prefers the second type!
But it's not what he thought. It depends on whether the river god will show up or not this time.
Every year in Shuilu Town, during the River God Sacrifice, the river god will appear and spread blessings, which makes Shuilu Town famous far and wide.
Also because of the manifestation of the river god, there are a large number of tourists every year during the river god worship in Shuilu town, but for some reason, Shuilu town can't develop.
Over the past ten years, Shuilu Town has been a small town, well-known but has not developed corresponding economic benefits.
When Lin Tian came to Shuilu Town, apart from investigating the River God of Shuilu Town, he also inspected why the development of Shuilu Town was stagnant.
Shuilu Town has been regarded by Lin Tian as the next key development town. As a front-line town with other forces, Shuilu Town has an irreplaceable role.
For this reason, a police force of about [-] people was stationed at the barracks stationed more than ten miles away to guard Shuilu Town.
As early as a month ago, the Shuilu Town Police Station had completed its rectification. These [-] specially trained policemen will maintain the law and order of Shuilu Town.
At this time, Lin Tian was walking on the festive streets of Shuilu Town, and he could still see police teams in groups of two patrolling and maintaining law and order.
During this trip, Lin Tian deliberately changed his appearance, so these policemen did not recognize the young man who passed by them as their big BOOS.
"Yes, Not Bad!"
Looking at the police teams responsible for maintaining law and order on the street, Lin Tian nodded with satisfaction. These people have been successfully reformed!
Following the crowd to the Heshen Temple, walking and stopping along the way, Lin Tian took a lot of food and drink in his hands.
"Yeah...it smells so good!!"
With a bunch of fried quail eggs in his mouth, Lin Tian still held several bunches in his hand, feeling satisfied for a while, with a constant smile on his face.
It's been a long time since Lin Tian had such a good meal, and this time the River God Sacrifice Festival in Shuilu Town really didn't go wrong!
After Lin Tian finished eating and drinking, he also followed the crowd to the small square of Heshen Temple in Shuilu Town, which is near the bank of the Yellow River.
At this time, the small square in front of the River God Temple was full of townspeople coming and going, mixed with the breath of vampires, werewolves, zombies, and monks.
Although he was curious and wanted to know why they gathered here, but after thinking about it, Lin Tian still chose to wait and see what happened.
The sacrificial festival is being held, and it is full of people looking up. If there is any chaos, how many people may die.
It's fine if it's other places, but Shuilu Town is Lin Tian's territory, so naturally he can't smash his own plate.
"Boom...boom!!"
"Bang... bang bang!!"
At this moment, the sound of gongs and drums sounded from the front of the Heshen Temple, and at some point, a group of festively dressed bands came over.
"Tick tock... tick tock..."
"Wow...lion dance..."
Joyful tunes and hearty laughter resounded throughout the Heshen Temple.
The pre-sacrifice activities lasted until noon, and the River God Ceremony was finally about to begin.
Four strong and strong men walked out of the Heshen Temple, and several respected and long-lived elders from Shuilu Town washed their bodies.
Washing the body is to drench the body with water with a special meaning, which means to wash away the mortal dust and pray for a life without disease and disaster.
The four big men who have washed their bodies will sacrifice their blood to the statue of the river god at the beginning of the sacrifice.
This blood sacrifice is not killing people to take blood. It is just cutting the palm of the hand and dripping a few drops of blood. At most, it will be weak for a while, and it will not threaten the safety of life.
Even so, there are people scrambling to become body-washing blood sacrifices every year, just because the few long-lived and respected old men in Shuilu Town once did body-washing blood sacrifices.
At the beginning of the river god sacrifice, several old men washed the bodies of the four strong men. It took more than half an hour, and the first step of the river god sacrifice was completed after the body washing was completed.
Then, the four strong men stood in front of the statue of the river god, cut their palms lightly with a dagger that had been sterilized by fire, and the dark red blood slowly dripped on the statue of the river god.
In the crowd, Lin Tian watched this scene quietly, especially when he saw the blood-stained river god statue, his eyes narrowed slightly.
No one noticed that an imperceptible ray of golden light flashed through Lin Tian's squinted eyes, and then they saw that Lin Tian's eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of golden irises.
Under the influence of the pale golden iris, the statue of the river god that Lin Tian saw changed.
A little bit of red light, along with the dripping blood of the four strong men, emerged on the statue, and slowly gathered into the jade beads in the hands of the statue.
At this time, a small part of the jade bead was already stained with blood, and a strange and ominous aura enveloped the jade bead.
Lin Tian's eyes flickered, and he felt heart palpitations from the jade bead.
A kind of mysterious level suppression, as if there is some kind of mysterious high-level power dormant in the jade bead.
It was because of this power that Lin Tian felt a palpitation in his heart.
The bright red blood flowed along the veins on the statue, and the blood of the four strong men quickly filled the veins at the bottom of the statue.
Seeing this scene, several doctors who stood quietly took out the herbal medicine that had been prepared to stop the bleeding, stepped forward to bandage the few people, and invited the four big men into the Heshen Temple.
At this point, the second step of the River God Sacrifice is complete!
Sacrificial by the blood of four strong and strong men, the veins under the statue of the river god revealed a strange aura under the reflection of the dark red blood.
Lin Tian's complexion gradually became serious, and the river god sacrifice had reached this point, and the whole statue of the river god became unknown.
Although this ominous aura was very weak, it gave Lin Tian a feeling of bruising, as if something on the statue was difficult to entangle.
Lin Tian was a little hesitant, whether to stop the priest of the river from continuing, but seeing the monks and demons hiding in the crowd, Lin Tian finally held back the commotion.
At this moment, an old man dressed in Chinese clothes walked out of the River God Temple, and the old man in Chinese clothes was holding a book of quaint rituals.
The ceremony looks like it has been around for a while, with the three big characters of "River God Sacrifice" written on it.
The old man in Chinese costume went straight to the statue of the river god and stood, facing the crowd, leaning against the statue, and read the "Great Contributions" of the river god.
Listening to the reading of the old man in Chinese costume, Lin Tian finally had an impression of the River God in Shuilu Town.
As expected, Lin Tian did not expect it.
The river god in Shuilu Town is really haunted by monsters, and he is also a clam monster.
The jade beads in the hands of the statue are the clam beads that the clam demon has shed!
Chapter 331. Appearance of the River God
Two hundred years ago, a heavy rainstorm lasted for several days, and the Yellow River flooded.
Shuilu Town is located along the Yellow River, less than twenty miles away from the Yellow River.
When the Yellow River flooded, Shuilu Town was naturally the first to be affected.
In addition, the northwest and southeast sides of Shuilu Town are surrounded by mountains, the southwest is surrounded by the rolling Yellow River, and the northeast is primeval jungle.
Flooding broke out in the Yellow River, and the northeast of Shuilu Town is the natural outlet
The flood of the Yellow River broke out, and the flood directly overflowed the river bank, and the muddy yellow sand and mud river water poured into Shuilu Town. At that time, the whole Shuilu Town was almost submerged by the flood.
And just when everyone in Shuilu Town fell into despair, the River God appeared.
At that time, the water waves were surging, and the torrential flood came to Shuilu Town, and a huge mussel with a head of more than ten meters flew out of the Yellow River.
The mussels were suspended on the flood, and the Yellow River flood in Shuilu Town gradually subsided, and the river gradually flowed back into the Yellow River. Most of Shuilu Town was almost destroyed, and more than half of the population was killed or injured.
After the flood of the Yellow River was calmed down, the huge clam suspended on the water surface of the Yellow River finally turned into a slim woman in a hazy red light.
The surviving residents of Shuilu Town regarded the woman as the river god who saved them from water and fire!
After the River God rescued the townspeople in Shuilu Town, he only took a deep look at those townspeople who survived before sinking into the Yellow River.
At that time, after the flood subsided, thick fog floated on the Yellow River, and the true face of the river god was also covered by the fog. The surviving residents of Shuilu Town could not see the true face of the river god, so they had no choice but to build a faceless statue of the god. , Worshiped from generation to generation.
This is also the reason why the statue enshrined in the River God Temple is a faceless female body!
From the great achievements of the River God of Shuilu Town announced by the old man, Lin Tian instantly captured the key words in it, and finally deduced the identity of the so-called River God of Shuilu Town.
A clam monster, or a female clam monster!
Lin Tian also heard a little about the great flood two hundred years ago. He heard that the entire middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River were ravaged by the flood.
But what puzzled Lin Tian was, why did the clam demon save Shuilu Town?
The torrential rain and the great flood two hundred years ago coincided with the large-scale eruption of monster beasts, and the power of the great flood was partly due to the monster beasts.
At that time, many monster beasts of the aquatic clan took the opportunity to stir up trouble, setting off a bigger flood and submerging the town, killing and injuring many people.
It's not Lin Tian's malicious speculation, but he instinctively doesn't believe that a clam monster will save mankind from the flood.
In addition, the strange and ominous aura on the statue further confirmed Lin Tian's guess!
In the great flood two hundred years ago, the clam demon saved the townspeople of Shuilu Town, there must be some kind of conspiracy involved.
After reading the deeds of the River God, the old man in Chinese costume began the last part of the River God Sacrifice——Prayer Sacrifice! !
"&...@...#..."
Convoluted and weird sacrificial words spit out from the mouth of the old man in Chinese costume.
The sacrificial words containing some kind of power lingered over the Heshen Temple, and a dim red light slowly appeared on the statue, and the frozen blood flowed again.
"Wow...a miracle, a miracle!"
"Ah... the river god has appeared!!"
