Seeing that her daughter was so strange to her, the woman began to cry again.

Xiaomei looked at her mother, then turned to look at the villagers. After thinking about it, he actually walked to Xiao Fei's side, and his soft little hand held his big hand. It seems that among all of them, only Xiao Fei can give her enough security.

However, Xiao Fei was their ancestor, and she felt unreachable and didn't dare to get too close to him. Otherwise, she would probably hold Xiao Fei.

When the villagers saw this scene, they nodded their heads one after another, and secretly said in their hearts, "The ancestor said that she was a maid in her previous life, and it was really good!" Xiaomei is very close to him. And it's just holding hands, close and respectful. ”

"Is this the girl who is going to be burned, it's pitiful!" Ma Xiaoling looked at Xiaomei and said. After speaking, he pulled Xiaomei to his side. But Xiaomei struggled hard and didn't go with her.

Eh, Ma Xiaoling was depressed in her heart: she is the real Chiyou bloodline, and these villagers actually believe in Xiao Fei's fake? Not only did he pay homage to him, but the little girl didn't trust herself.

……

"You people, prepare some fishing boats for us, we will cross the river!" Xiao Fei looked indifferent and commanded proudly.

"The orders of the ancestors, we should only obey!" The village chief said, and after speaking, he pointed to a villager: "Yang Yizhi, your family's fishing boat is the largest, contribute it to the ancestors to cross the river!" ”

"It is my honor to be able to contribute things to my ancestors and do a little bit of my humble contribution to the younger generations!" When the villager heard this, he said excitedly. He looked to be in his seventies, and he actually claimed to be a descendant in front of Xiao Fei.

Of course, Xiao Fei's real seniority is indeed higher than him. After saying that, the old villager immediately went to his house to get a fishing boat.

"Ancestor, the younger generations have one more thing to tell." The village chief said: "Recently, there are river gods in the Heishui River, so we don't dare to go fishing. Do you want a few young adults to follow and help the ancestors cross the river? ”

They saw that Xiao Fei was young and felt that even if he was reincarnated as an ancestor, he might have lost some of his mana or something.

"It doesn't matter what kind of river god he is, the ancestor of your sect, I just take it in." Xiao Fei said.

"Yes, yes, yes...... It's the younger generation that worries about the sky. offended the ancestors, and hoped for forgiveness. The village chief said with sincere fear. I was thinking in my heart, the ancestor was the god of war back then, even if he was reincarnated, he should be able to fight the river god.

"Humph!" Xiao Fei snorted coldly and ignored him.

"Miaojiang woman, you can bring your daughter home." Xiao Fei turned his head and said to the middle-aged woman, "In the future, you have to treat her well and make up for your mistakes today!" The villagers will offer her like a fairy, and you don't have to worry about anything like this happening again. ”

"Thank you...... Ancestor! The Miaojiang woman cried and said. After speaking, he took the little girl's hand and turned to leave.

When the little girl left, she kept looking back at Xiao Fei, as if she was a little reluctant. Now, she doesn't trust her mother, only Xiao Fei.

My ancestors once saved me? In my previous life, I was really his maid and slave! The little girl thought to herself.

Xiao Fei smiled at her and nodded in encouragement.

"Disperse all of you, and don't tell anyone else about what I have happened today. Otherwise, I will punish you! Xiao Fei said to the villagers again.

"Yes, Ancestor!" The village chief respectfully agreed. Then he turned around and waved to the villagers, so everyone packed up, and the hoe and sickle that fell on the ground were cleaned up and went home.

"Boss, why do they all worship you?" Seeing that the villagers were gone, Xiao Fei and the others also walked to the river. With large boats, they were able to cross the river. On the way, Big Banya asked strangely.

"Also, why do these people call you Ancestor?" Ma Xiaoling was also a little confused, so she couldn't ask if there were many people just now, but now there are no outsiders, so she asked Xiao Fei, and said: "They and I are both descendants of Chiyou, they call you ancestor, shouldn't I call you ancestor too?" ”

"My rank is countless times higher than yours." Xiao Fei smiled faintly and said, "Just now, I became the appearance of the Chiyou God of War, and when they saw it, they knelt down directly. ”

"You've changed your Dharma?" Ma Xiaoling said: "Isn't this deceiving people and deceiving the public? ”

"If I don't do this, it's really hard for this group of ignorant villagers to surrender." Xiao Fei said, "At first, they saw me save Xiaomei, and they all came to hunt me down. It was only after I became their ancestor that the crisis was resolved. ”

"The only way to deal with ignorant people is to use extraordinary means?" Xiao Fei said: "Because they don't deserve to know the truth at all. ”

"The righteousness is awe-inspiring, but in fact, you have taken advantage of others." The fat man said, "I also want to be an ancestor for a while!" ”

"Get out!" Ma Xiaoling glared at him angrily. Chiyou is also her ancestor, which makes her feel unhappy when she thinks about it.

……

"Everyone, let's all gather in the clearing!"

Not long after they left, suddenly a group of Miao Jiang people with spears in their hands walked into the village again. One of them held a gong in his hand and kept ringing it. Another leader-like man said, holding a bullhorn in his hand.

Hearing the voice, the villager who had just left came out of the room again. It wasn't long before the villagers gathered again in the clearing.

"Where's the grass ghost woman in your village?" Seeing that the villagers had all walked out, the Miao Jiang leader asked the village chief.

"She's dead." The village chief said.

"Well, since she is dead, then the affairs of the village, it is up to you to organize everyone." The leader of the Miao Jiang people seems to be indifferent to the death of the grass ghost woman.

Then he picked up the horn and said to everyone: "Fellow villagers, this county has to worship the river god every year, and this year is no exception. The tribute to the river god came from your village. ”

Turning to the village chief, he said, "Tomorrow at noon, we will hold a ceremony to worship the river god in the Heishui River. The matter of the pair of boys and girls is up to you to solve. ”

Worship the river god, a boy and a girl?

Just outside Tianzhu County, there is a huge black water river. Every year in the prefecture, a ceremony is held to give a pair of boys and girls to the river god to eat. The way to do this is to take the boys and girls in a boat to the middle of the river, tie them to the stones, and throw them down.

After three days, the parents of the boy and girl go to a fixed location downstream to collect their bones and bury them. And what was salvaged were two white bones. It is clear that the virgins are eaten, not drowned.

The Heishui River really has a river god, and it has penetrated into the hearts of all people. As a result, worshipping the river god has also become the rule here.
