[Qin] Carp Leaping over the Dragon Gate

It's a pity that the little fish demon has forgotten that his current body is really not a fish anymore.

Therefore, it is not surprising that after he had eaten and drank enough, he had already forgotten to settle accounts with the little human who had been staring at him for a long time.

Even if he wanted to settle accounts, he actually didn't have time.

After the little belly was full, the little fish demon was still hiccupping with the smell of milk, and the village head brought people in.

"Oh, this is Xiaoyu? It's really cute, like a little fairy boy." The village chief smiled happily when he saw the presence of the little fish demon at a glance.

Although he didn't know what this human being was talking about, but looking at the other person's appearance and hearing the tone of the words, the little fish demon knew that he must be praising himself.How can you not be happy about this kind of thing?

The little fish monster opened its round black pupils, blinked and looked over, then opened its mouth to reveal a soft smile.

"Hey! It seems that my old man is quite popular with Xiaoyu. He got a smiling face as soon as he came. The smile made my old man's heart melt!"

"Perhaps the village head, you really like Xiaoyu. This child only shows a smile when he is full. He usually falls asleep all the time. It's rare." After feeding, he hugged Xiaoyu lightly Seeing this scene, the hostess who patted lightly also laughed.

The adults here were happy, making Ying Zheng, who had been staring at the little fish demon, look more serious.

Why doesn't Brother Xiaoyu smile at me?

Ying Zheng looked at his short figure, and then at the village head Zou Jubaba's face.

Although I am a little short, I am still better-looking than that old man with wrinkled face. Why doesn't Brother Xiaoyu smile at me?

Could it be that Brother Xiaoyu is still worrying about the fact that he failed to protect him yesterday and made him cry?

Yes, it must be so.

I'm sorry, brother Xiaoyu, I will definitely protect you in the future and prevent you from being bullied by anyone!absolute!Definitely will not happen again last time!

Ying Zheng once again made up his mind.

At the same time, he quietly set a goal for himself, hoping to get Xiaoyu's brother's smile.Well, not too many, just a hundred first.

The little fish demon didn't know that his smile had been contracted by someone else.

He just heard a word mentioned by the human old man in front of him. Although it was very slight, that word did cause some fluctuations.This fluctuation was exactly the kind that the little fish demon was familiar with.

In other words, what I want to find has something to do with the old human being just now?

oops!I don't know what it is, how can I understand human beings?

Annoying fish!

……

Two days passed in a flash.

Zhao Rong still had the cheek to stay in Heyu Village.The village chief didn't try to drive him away, he was worried that the other party would take Xiaoyu away with him.Even if he couldn't stay, he still had a chance to persuade Aunt Zhao and the others to take Xiaoyu away, which was not what the village chief wanted.

Anyway, it's only a few days, the big deal is to let this person work harder in the village to make up for what he eats.

During the day, the villagers in Heyu Village became nervous.

The men stepped up their patrols to ensure that there would be no problems with the subsequent baptism.The women also took action one by one, taking care of their children, preparing offerings, and various trivial matters in the ceremony.

The village chief also carefully checked the procedure of the ceremony.

Even Zhao Rong, Zhao Ji and Aunt Zhao were called to work together.

Now I am relatively free, only the children in the village.

"Zhao Zheng! Zhao Zheng! Take Brother Xiaoyu out to play!" No, these idle children have come together to find new friends who have appeared in the past two days.

Actually, they don't really like being with Zhao Zheng. This guy is short, and he doesn't know how his head is long, but he is smarter than them. When playing with him, he always feels hit.

However, if they didn't call Zhao Zheng, they wouldn't be able to see Brother Xiaoyu.

Yes, in fact, the object that these children really want to play with is the little fish demon who eats and sleeps every day.

Could it be that the little fish demon has a physique that "pleases children" that he doesn't even know about?

"Zhao Zheng! Come out, we've all seen you!"

A few clinking sounds came from the window, and Ying Zheng turned his head to look, and saw a few small heads poking out from the window, the talking child was looking at him, and the eyes of the others all turned to the bed. On the Xiaotuanzi.

Ying Zheng ignored it.He moved the small bench and changed his position, continuing to admire Xiaoyu's younger brother's white and tender face.

And his new position happened to be between the window sill and the bed, completely blocking the sight of the children outside the window.

Caused a howl.

"Hey! You little bastards are here to make trouble again?! Don't even look at what day it is today, and dare to take Xiaoyu out quietly, and you are asking questions!"

A woman passing by heard the movement, and she knew what was going on by looking at it, so she picked up a wooden stick by the side of the road and started to chase people away like ducks.

The children screamed and ran away quickly.

Ying Zheng turned a deaf ear to him, and focused on guarding Xiao Yu's brother.

He knew what day it was, and he had secretly inquired about the baptism ceremony in the Holy Pool with other children.

He didn't want little brother Xiaoyu to suffer, but he also knew that he was so small and weak that he couldn't do much.But he has already decided that he wants to be with brother Xiaoyu, isn't there a saying called "share weal and woe"?He couldn't refuse the pain for Xiao Yu's brother, so he could only accept it with him.

That's why he won't go out with those children, he must always be by Xiaoyu's side, and he can't let adults take Xiaoyu away while he's not paying attention.

……

The little fish demon didn't know what the little human being next to him was thinking. Ever since he decided to learn human language, he had been memorizing it by heart.It's a pity that this human cub's body is really weak, and he falls asleep every time he can't hear a few words.

Of course, there was another reason why the little fish monster couldn't tell.

It is said that the memory of fish is only seven seconds. Although their intelligence is not so bad, it is not much better...

Hey, the road to learning, the future is bleak.

The good thing is that he can probably feel that the things that humans are busy these days are related to what he wants to find, and he can get it naturally.He didn't spend much time thinking about this, and saved himself a lot of trouble.

Otherwise, with the little fish demon's small brain, he has to learn human language and think about problems, and he doesn't know what kind of mess it will become~

The sun is gradually sinking to the west, and the full moon can already see the shadow.

Heyu Village, where everything was ready, called all the villagers to gather at the dam.

"Everyone knows what the purpose of our gathering today is, so I won't talk about it here." The village head stood in front of the stage and turned up the volume, "The ancestor's precepts cannot be violated, and it is also a barrier that protects Yucun and me to this day! Is everyone here?"

The villagers in charge counted the people in their team one after another.

"Hey, why is that kid there?"

"Zheng'er! What are you doing there? Come here soon!"

Soon, someone saw Ying Zheng added to the line of children preparing for the christening ceremony.

A total of eight children of appropriate age were baptized this time, and each child is now held by a special woman.In this line of serious-looking women except for the infant child, it is indeed particularly conspicuous to have such a short little boy.

The villager in charge of this part looked helpless, and said: "This kid is very stubborn, he refuses to leave his brother Xiaoyu, and insists on being together. I can't help it, so I let him stand here."

The village chief looked at Ying Zheng's firm expression and shook his head: "Forget it, if that's the case, let him do it."

Everything is ready, everyone seals the soil to make an altar, and offers offerings.

One slaughtered and washed whole pig is placed in the middle, a pair of poultry are placed on the left and right respectively, and a large fish is placed on the list.

Make a tripod out of stone and burn joss sticks.

In the end, all the villagers used their own containers to fill a number of live fish that had been prepared earlier, and circled around.

The head of the village chief presents the first joss stick, lights it, kowtows, and offers incense.

The other villagers followed in turn.

Incense curls up.

After the incense was burnt, the eight baptized babies were placed on the grass ball in front of the incense stick.

What was more abrupt was that Ying Zheng said that he refused to leave Xiaoyu, so he could only let him hold Xiaoyu in his arms and sit where Xiaoyu should be.

The live fish in a circle stopped swinging at some point, but they didn't turn up their white bellies as if they were dead, but just sank quietly under the container.

The oldest elder of Heyu Village came out, took off willow branches, dipped water in every container containing fish, and sprinkled it on the eight babies one by one.

The little fish demon opened his eyes the moment the water droplets hit his body.

It's getting thicker.

He quietly felt the familiar breath.

Turning his eyes, he also noticed the strangeness around him at this time.

It looks like some kind of ceremony is being held?

What ritual requires so many fish?

I don't know if it's because I feel that I'm one step closer to what I want, or because there are so many fish around me, the little fish demon's mood is much better.

At this time, he heard a more familiar melody coming from the mouth of the leading human.

It is the accompanying song in their carp family!

Afraid that he might hear it wrong, the little fish demon held his breath and listened to a few more words seriously.

Yes!That's right!Whenever the fish in the clan go out to play, they will play this accompanying song, calling for friends and traveling together.

As long as they hear this song, the fish will not get lost or fall behind. Even if they accidentally walk away, they can still follow the sound.

Why does this human being do this?

Could it be that he was actually transformed from a fish?

The little fish demon immediately perked up.
