Chapter 503 Poseidon
"Hey, it's quite lively. What are you all doing there?"
Xiao Wanwan murmured softly, and her figure disappeared from the spot.
On the beach in the distance, a large group of people gathered.
Adults and children were making a lot of noise.
As Xiao Wanwan stood firm, she heard shouts:
"Haisheng, stop it quickly! Don't let it run away."
"The waves are coming your way, straighten the net!"
"Ouch, this little beast is grabbing people!"
The group of people gathered around a little snow-white fox, trying to catch it.
Xiao Wanwan walked forward with a smile, patted an elderly person standing at the outermost edge, and asked, "Grandma, what are you doing catching it?"
The old lady looked back and her eyes widened in shock: "Oh my God, the sea god is coming!"
She fell to her knees with a plop, prostrating herself on the ground devoutly: "Pray to the Sea God, and ask for his blessing!"
The old lady is now at a loss for Xiao Wanwan!
She hurriedly helped the old lady up: "Grandma, what are you doing?"
The old woman trembled, a look of fear on her wrinkled face. "Please calm down, Sea God! We are capturing tribute and offering it to you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the captured white fox turned into a stream of light and flew into Xiao Wanwan's arms.
The crowd that was surrounding the white fox all looked towards Xiao Wanwan, following the direction the white fox escaped.
In an instant, the crowd was silent!
"Sea...the sea god has appeared!"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd cried out.
The sound was like a stone thrown into water, waking up the stunned crowd.
Everyone knelt down, prostrating themselves on the ground like the old lady had just done: "Greetings to the Sea God, may the Sea God bless you!"
Xiao Wanwan was holding the little white fox, stunned with shock.
What is this scenario?
"Um...you guys stand up and talk first!"
She felt a little uncomfortable seeing so many people kneeling in front of her.
The leader slowly stood up, still kneeling on the ground, looking up at Xiao Wanwan, his tone respectful:
"I didn't know the Sea God was coming, please don't blame me, Sea God!"
Seeing this, Xiao Wanwan scratched her ears and cheeks, and her scalp felt numb.
The piety and awe in these people's eyes were clearly revealed.
She also couldn't understand why these people were so sure that she was their Sea God.
"Hehe...Uncle, did you recognize the wrong person? I'm not some sea god."
The leader's face turned pale instantly, and his whole body trembled:
"Poseidon, please forgive us. Please don't abandon us."
None of the people crawling on the ground dared to look up, but they all shouted along with the leader:
"Poseidon, please forgive us. Please don't abandon us."
"Poseidon, please forgive us. Please don't abandon us."
……
Xiao Wanwan's head was buzzing, and she scratched her head in bewilderment.
"You guys get up first, we'll talk later!"
The leader looked up at Xiao Wanwan cautiously:
"Poseidon, we dare not!"
Xiao Wanwan: “…”
With her violent temper, does she look like she would eat people?
Don’t dare, don’t dare, it makes her look like a bully.
Xiao Wanwan couldn't help but raise her voice and shouted:
"Get up, everyone. What's the point of kneeling there?"
When everyone saw her angry, they all trembled like sieves.
The leader gritted his teeth, kowtowed heavily, and said in a deep voice:
"Thank you, Poseidon!"
The people crawling on the ground also shouted along with him:
"Thank you, Poseidon!"
Everyone looked terrified and in awe, helping each other to stand up.
Xiao Wanwan held her forehead helplessly.
Does she look that scary?
Judging from the expressions of these people, she was just like Zhou Baopi, the exploiter in the evil old society.
A feeling of powerlessness rose in her heart.
Xiao Wanwan could only slow down her voice, with a smile on her face like the wolf grandmother who coaxed Little Red Riding Hood:
"Hehe...Uncle, don't be afraid, I'm a good person!"
Everyone looked at each other in shock!
This sea god looks a little weird.
The leader still looked respectful: "I wonder what instructions the Sea God has given you now that he has arrived?"
Xiao Wanwan smiled awkwardly, "Nothing, just taking a walk."
Seeing her so easygoing, everyone became much bolder.
A few children squeezed out of the crowd and surrounded Xiao Wanwan curiously, chattering and asking:
"Poseidon, do you live in this ocean?"
"Poseidon, is your palace in the sea particularly luxurious?"
"Poseidon, my mother told me that your palace is inlaid with night-shining pearls, isn't it?"
The adult standing behind suddenly changed color.
They stepped forward to hold their children, and knelt down in unison:
"Poseidon, calm down. These children are ignorant and didn't mean to offend you."
Xiao Wanwan sighed deeply in her heart again. She reached out and touched the little girl's head.
"It's okay, the child is still young!"
Seeing Xiao Wanwan touching her, the girl's eyes sparkled and a bright smile appeared on her face:
"The Sea God touched me, and the Sea God blessed me!"
Everyone around looked at the little girl with envy.
Heini is a blessed person, as she has received the blessing of the sea god.
The little boy kneeling behind Hai Ni took a step forward and knelt down in front of Xiao Wanwan with a plop.
"Poseidon, have mercy on me! Please bless me!"
Xiao Wanwan was stunned, and reached out to touch the little boy's head again.
The little boy was ecstatic, covering his head with his hands, and laughing with a row of white teeth showing:
"Hehe...the Sea God has also blessed me!"
Seeing everyone eager to try, Xiao Wanwan unconsciously took a few steps back.
Just kidding, there are dozens of people here, she doesn't want to touch their heads one by one.
The leader was good at observing people's expressions. Seeing Xiao Wanwan like this, he glared at everyone with a warning.
These idiots are simply taking advantage of others.
Is the sea god someone they can blaspheme?
If they anger the sea god, their small fishing village will surely suffer disasters in the future.
After receiving the warning look from the village chief, the villagers' restless hearts were like being poured with a bucket of cold water, and they immediately woke up.
The one standing before them was the God of the Sea. How could they make demands at will?
Xiao Wanwan knew that the person in front of her was the head of this fishing village. She walked forward holding the white fox and asked:
"Uncle, I want to know where this place is."
The village chief was stunned, not knowing why the Sea God would ask this question, but he still answered respectfully:
"Replying to Poseidon, this is Nanli Sea, and we are all villagers from the small fishing village ahead."
Xiao Wanwan nodded and asked, "Why did you capture this little white fox?"
A hint of surprise flashed across the village chief's eyes, but he still answered honestly:
"Replying to Poseidon, at this time every year, we receive your instructions to capture tribute and offer it to you."
He was a little confused. It was clearly the Poseidon's instructions, so why was he still asking him?
Xiao Wanwan blinked, and a thousand divine beasts galloped through her mind.
Are you kidding me, she instructs them to offer tribute?
Why didn't she know?
