Chapter 504 Another Temple
Xiao Wanwan pointed at her nose, looking puzzled: "What instructions do I give you every year?"
The village chief's heart tightened. Looking at the Poseidon's expression, could it be true?
He nodded cautiously: "Poseidon, every year in the Poseidon Temple, there will be your instructions."
Xiao Wanwan's heart flashed with suspicion, but she didn't show it on her face. She nodded slightly:
"Take me to see it!"
The village chief hurriedly led the way: "Poseidon, please follow me."
Xiao Wanwan followed the village chief through many twists and turns and walked into a cave by the sea.
This cave is very spacious, giving people a feeling of sudden openness.
What surprised Xiao Wanwan the most was that on the walls of the cave were carved portraits of goddesses, exactly the same as the ones she had seen in the ancient continent.
She casually glanced around and could see that there must have been a forbidden formation set up here.
But for some unknown reason, the forbidden formation has been damaged.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the villagers of the small fishing village to enter this place.
As they went deeper into the cave, the decorations around them became more and more luxurious.
The exquisite murals and gorgeous stone pillars are eye-catching.
After going around a huge rock, a magnificent palace suddenly appeared before Xiao Wanwan's eyes.
No!
Xiao Wanwan was secretly surprised that this palace was exactly the same as the one in the ancient continent.
When she got here, she could imagine with her toes that there must be a statue of the goddess in this palace.
"Poseidon, we're here!" The village chief stopped and stood aside respectfully.
Xiao Wanwan didn't say anything, and slowly walked into the palace holding the little white fox.
The scene she saw was exactly as she had imagined, such a familiar place.
Looking at the statue of the goddess, whose eyes and eyebrows were extremely similar to her own, Xiao Wanwan finally understood why the villagers in the small fishing village kept calling her the goddess of the sea.
Her gaze fell on the outstretched hand of the goddess statue, which was empty.
Xiao Wanwan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask, "Where is the bead in the statue's hand?"
The village chief's heart was pounding. What he feared was coming true.
He heard from his elders that the statue used to hold a blue bead in its hand.
But one day, it suddenly disappeared.
I don’t know who is so bold as to steal even the things of the sea god.
This time, the true form of the Sea God has arrived. Will he blame them for failing to take good care of the place?
"Reply...Reply to the Sea God. The orb in your statue's hand has been stolen for many years. Please punish me, Sea God."
The village chief's voice trembled a little. He made up his mind, knelt on the ground and told the truth.
He actually had no idea how the Sea God would deal with them.
But the Sea God has great powers, so he should be able to find the stolen orb.
Upon seeing this, the villagers of the small fishing village fell to their knees and pleaded in unison: "Please punish us, Sea God!"
Xiao Wanwan stood in front of the statue, watching this scene, the blue veins on her forehead twitched uncontrollably.
She couldn't stand the fact that the villagers in this small fishing village knelt down at the slightest disagreement.
She rubbed her forehead, only to feel a headache coming on. She waved her hands weakly: "Get up! This is not your fault."
If she is guilty, then let God strike her with thunder, but please don't let these people torture her alive like this.
Xiao Wanwan's mind turned, and she heard a rumbling sound in the sky outside.
The corners of her mouth twitched uncontrollably.
Hehe...Oh my God, she is just joking, don’t take it seriously!
Hearing Xiao Wanwan say this, the village chief finally felt relieved.
"Thank you, Sea God, for not blaming me."
The village chief wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. If the sea god gets angry, they will face endless disasters.
He knew that the Sea God was merciful and would definitely not blame these innocent villagers.
Xiao Wanwan looked up at the goddess statue and asked casually:
"Uncle Village Chief, how do you think the Sea God gives you instructions and demands tribute every year?"
The village chief was completely confused and wondered in his heart, isn't this an instruction from the sea god himself?
How could she not know?
He suddenly thought of something and his heart skipped a beat.
Oh no, could it be that one of these people is impersonating the God of the Sea?
The thought only lasted a moment, and the village chief answered honestly:
"Reporting to Poseidon, we always see your instructions on the stone wall at the entrance of the cave."
Xiao Wanwan paused, then turned her gaze towards the village chief and walked away, "I'll go take a look."
She walked quickly in front, followed closely by the villagers of the small fishing village.
The group returned to the cave entrance. The village chief raised his head and pointed upwards: "Poseidon, look!"
Xiao Wanwan looked in the direction the village chief pointed and was so angry that she laughed.
The words on the stone wall were written like dog crawling, so horrible that I couldn't bear to look at them.
She looked at it carefully for a long time before she could barely make out what was written on it.
It's really difficult for the villagers in the small fishing village. It's a pity that they can still understand it.
There was only the following scribbled words on it:
If the wind is calm tomorrow, I will provide you with five live pigs!
The day after tomorrow, when the waves are calm, offer five cows and five sheep!
Ten days later, ten wild ginseng and ten Ganoderma lucidum!
......
Xiao Wanwan looked at it slowly. At first, she was trying to ask for something, but in the end, her appetite grew bigger and bigger.
The number of live pigs, cattle and sheep gradually decreased, and the ones needed later were all precious medicinal herbs.
Until the latest handwriting reads:
Three days later, a white fox appeared.
Xiao Wanwan turned around and looked at the village chief: "Village chief, what day is today three days from now?"
The village chief was now suspicious, knowing that for many years, it was most likely some mountain elves and monsters from nowhere pretending to be the sea god and asking them for things.
He felt like vomiting blood. Over the years, not only the small fishing village, but also the surrounding villages and even the officials in the city had been affected.
It is extremely painful to meet its demands.
If they just wanted some pigs, cattle and sheep, it would be fine; they could get them together with a little effort.
The things they wanted later were very strange and they spent countless efforts to find them.
He came back to his senses when he heard Xiao Wanwan's question: "Replying to Sea God, tomorrow is the third day."
Xiao Wanwan stroked the soft fur of the little white fox and nodded slightly:
"Then tomorrow, I will personally offer sacrifices to the sea god."
The village chief's eyes lit up. Now that the real Sea God had appeared, he wanted to see what kind of monster had deceived them for so many years.
He never doubted Xiao Wanwan's identity. After all, in his eyes, Xiao Wanwan looked exactly like the statue in the Temple of Poseidon.
What's more, the otherworldly aura she exudes is exactly the same as that of the statue.
The village chief looked respectful and tentatively looked at Xiao Wanwan and said:
"Poseidon, why don't you take a rest at my house tonight?"
He secretly praised himself for his cleverness, thinking that if the Sea God could rest in his house for a night.
Then his family's status in the surrounding villages will surely rise, and they will also benefit from the blessings of the Sea God.
It’s beautiful just thinking about it.
