It's [Water Return Sacrifice] again.
Li Si ate the edamame, and pretended to ask casually: "Oh, I seem to have heard of it. What's it called... [Sea God]?"
Qian Xia hurriedly corrected his words.
"It's [Lord God]!"
The little girl's face was tense, her expression was serious, and she could even see a little fear:
"Don't be disrespectful to the gods, otherwise you will be severely punished after death."
Li Si didn't want to be as knowledgeable as the little girl, so he just nodded and said yes with a smile.
He nibbled on edamame and gradually fell into deep thought.
Punishment after death, this set of things is used by religions all over the world. Best of all, no one can disprove this.
So they can exaggerate the horror of death at will, and the benefits of believing in gods for life after death...
As far as information is currently available, there is nothing special about the local religion.
Li Si continued to chat with Qian Xia, half chatting and half clichéd, and got a lot of information.
For example, the grandma in the east of the town cooks the best Oden cooking. If you want to eat roasted bird skewers, you must go to the port. Qianxia and the others also have signature dishes in their shop, tamagoyaki and fish jelly are very popular...
Oops.
Li Si's eyes were fixed, he was so dangerous, and they chatted so happily that they almost forgot about the business.
"Why do you say that Grandpa's illness will be healed once the [Water Return Sacrifice] comes?" Li Si took a sip of the soup, using the soup bowl to cover her inquiring eyes.
Sure enough, Qian Xia did not suspect him: "Because [Mr.] said it!"
"Hahahaha, so that "Mr." is so powerful."
Li Si was smiling, and she already had the idea of investigating [Mr.] in her heart.
But he found that Qian Xia didn't know anything about this [Mr.].
After collecting information, Li Si only knew that this man was an old man who lived around the town and sometimes taught children to read and write.
Furthermore, it is this old man who is leading the local residents to believe in [Gods of the Sea].
Cult leader, huh?
Li Si was afraid that if she said too much, it would make people suspicious, so she chatted with Qian Xia about her grandfather's condition.
According to the little girl, what grandpa suffered from was not lung cancer, but a strange disease that only the gods can cure.
He has been bedridden for several years, and the [Water Return Sacrifice] is held every four years. As long as he survives this year, grandpa will be able to recover.
When Qian Xia said these words, her eyes sparkled, it seemed that she believed in all of this.
Li Si didn't ask any more, and told the little girl what to do.
Qian Xia bowed slightly, and took her sister away without disturbing the guests.
There is no cook in the izakaya, and even the meals are cooked by two little girls.
Li Si filled his stomach, touched his trouser pocket, and found that he had left his mobile phone in the room.
This is not good, I always feel flustered without a mobile phone when eating.
He stood up and went back to the second floor to get his phone. Passing the intersection again, the cough sounded again.
This time, Li Si stayed longer.
Feng Su sipped wine below. Brown sugar and shredded ginger were added to the hot beer in this shop. The taste was a bit strange, but it was delicious.
She gradually felt a little strange. Li Si said that she was holding the mobile phone, but it seemed that she had been on it for a long time.
Just thinking about it, Li Si walked downstairs quickly.
Feng Sugang wanted to greet him, but saw this guy turn a corner and go straight into the kitchen.
Sister Su Su couldn't turn her head around.
This is... There is not enough food on the table, so I went straight to the kitchen to eat raw?
Li Si found Qianxia and Xiaochun sisters in the kitchen.
Qian Xia is not tall enough, she has to step on a small bench to wash dishes by the sink.
Xiaochun is younger and can't do much work. But she still carefully arranged the chopsticks one by one, neatly.
Li Si approached Qian Xia, and the little girl noticed him: "Guest, how is your meal? Do you need more food?"
Li Si didn't answer her, but asked a question: "Who usually takes care of your grandpa?"
Qian Xia showed a lovely smile, and replied without hesitation: "It's my uncle. Grandpa's disease is contagious, especially for children. Uncle won't let me take care of him."
"So I'm so happy, when this year's [Water Return Festival] is over, I can go out with grandpa again like before."
Li Si was silent, not knowing what to say, and could only pat her head.
Qian Xia didn't know why, but still accepted Li Si's kindness.
Li Si went back to her seat all the way, startling Miss Susu. She held Li Si's hand: "What happened? Your expression is so scary."
Li Si shook his head and didn't want to talk about this topic for the time being.
He passed the corridor twice before and heard someone coughing.
But the problem is that the cough heard the second time is almost the same as the first time.
This aroused Li Si's suspicion, so he went straight to the depth of the corridor and pushed open the door.
The room was empty and there were no old people.
There is only an old radio on the ground, repeating the heart-piercing cough.
Without Qian Xia's knowledge, her grandfather had already died.
Possibly even died four years ago.
Among the people related to this izakaya, the most suspicious one is the "uncle" who took care of grandpa.
But Qianxia said that the uncle and his wife had already left for the city and would not be back until three days later.
Why did they hide it from Qianxia?
【Water Return Sacrifice】How will it cure a dead person's disease?
What roles did Liu Jinsheng and the Laughing Man play in it?
Li Si leaned back, Bean Sprout looked up at him, and sighed slightly.
She knew at a glance that Li Si must have discovered something, and now she was very excited.
But isn't it for a trip this time?
The bean sprouts were bored, so I thought I had to soak in the hot spring tonight and eat the food I wanted.
Otherwise, after today, based on past experience, whether this town still exists is a matter of opinion.
Sister Su Su also saw that Li Si had something on her mind, but she didn't think it was that complicated, it was simply because Li Si ate too little tonight.
So she began to consider whether to cook some hors d'oeuvres.
No matter how capable Sister Qianxia is, her cooking skills are actually just that in Sister Susu's opinion.
For a while, the family of three fell silent.
Just then, the doorbell rang and someone pushed the door.
Li Si looked back, and a smiley mask came into view.
The man took off his mask, revealing a simple and honest uncle's face: "Qianxia, is it open now? Please bring me a glass of beer."
Qian Xia came out with a beer, Li Si naturally cut her off halfway and took the beer from her hand.
He handed the beer to the uncle: "I'll take this glass. I just came here not long ago, can I tell you about the local attractions?"
Li Si's voice is extremely gentle.
"I'm sorry to trouble you."
