Madam, she has a group of fairy bosses

Chapter 239 Praying to the God of Mountains and Rivers
The aunt continued: "I believe what Guozi's grandfather said about this. I remember that when I first came to the village, this river could drown an adult. Now, you have also seen it. If it weren't for habit, I wouldn't be able to Call it a river, it’s just a small ditch.”

As the two of them were walking, they saw an old man in front of them, sitting by a small river ditch, burning paper and chanting.

"Lord River God, old man, I am here to worship you again. My body and bones are getting worse day by day. If I leave one day, no one may remember you in the future. Hey, you are a little bit different now. I no longer have any faith, so how can I know how to be grateful to the gods?”

The aunt glared at the uncle, with a loving complaint in her tone: "Guozi, his grandfather fell into the river when he was a child. I heard he said that the river god saved him. Since then, he has come to the river to offer sacrifices on the fifteenth day of every month. Bye, little sister Tang, don’t worry about it, this person just likes to talk nonsense when he gets older.”

The uncle stood up, patted the dust on his body, and turned around: "Old lady, you are talking nonsense again. What gods are talking about? There really are gods in this world. As long as you have pious beliefs, gods will really bless the world."

Tang Yan answered: "Well, Grandpa Guozi, you are right, there really is a god in this world."

The uncle did not expect that some young people today would agree with his statement, so he said that his son, every time he came to the river to worship the river god, he would say that he was engaging in feudal superstition.

We are now in the 21st century, and everyone is talking about science and do not believe in the beliefs of their elders.

Tang Yan's tone and expression were very sincere, and the uncle seemed to have found a soulmate. He chatted with Tang Yan about many things on the way back.

"Little sister Tang, do you know why the water in this river is getting less and less inexplicably?"

Tang Yan shook his head: "Why?"

The uncle sighed, with deep sadness in his tone: "This river actually has a history of thousands of years. It has supported an unknown number of people in the surrounding area for generations. But, people's living conditions have improved now, so they forget Even though I have lost my roots, I don’t know how to be grateful.

There will be less water in this river because there are fewer people who believe in it. If the god cannot enjoy the incense, he will naturally no longer bless the world. "

The aunt immediately refuted him: "Old man, you are talking nonsense here again. Our son has already said that the water in the river has become less due to changes in climate and terrain. Whether you believe in something or not, don't talk nonsense, let people Little sister Tang is just laughing."

The two of them probably quarreled often because of this matter. The uncle did not refute, but continued to face Tang Yan: "Don't listen to your aunt, she has a woman's vision and is ignorant."

"Old man, tell me again, who doesn't know?" the aunt yelled at the top of her voice.

The uncle immediately gave up: "I have no knowledge, I am superstitious, and I will come to worship the river god next month."

Tang Yan smiled and could see that although the two old men had different ideas, they had a good relationship.

Modern society is too impetuous. It is not so much a lack of belief as a loss of belief. It does not necessarily mean belief in God. At least you should have your own principles and bottom lines.

But nowadays, money is paramount, and conscience can be betrayed for one's own benefit. The reality is such that there is no choice but to do so.

Tang Yan brought her thoughts back. Based on what the uncle said, she intuitively believed that there should be other reasons for the decrease in the water in this river.
