My Arknights Life Diary
Chapter 251 Shennong Temple
Really fragrant~
This was Tu Fang's first thought. His throat subconsciously wanted to swallow the spoonful of five-bean porridge, but his brain soon realized what he was eating.
Tu Fang wanted to spit this stuff out, but looking at the looks of the people around him...Tu Fang endured the psychological discomfort, forced himself to swallow the first bite, and then spoke.
"Sorry, I'm not used to this stuff. Give it to Xiao Ke."
Tu Fang pushed very quickly this time, so fast that even Xiaoman didn't have time to react.
The bowl of porridge was already in front of Xiao Ke. Xiao Ke did not hesitate. Since Tu Fang didn't want to eat it, she accepted it with a smile. After all, she thought the porridge was quite delicious.
Xiaoman looked at the scene in front of her and felt a little disappointed. It seemed that it was because her hometown food was disliked by others.
"Donor Xiaoman, everyone has their own likes and dislikes to eat, and similarly, everyone has the right to choose what to eat.
It is not a good behavior to force your own preferences on others, thinking that they will also like them.
Just because a food is not accepted by some people doesn’t mean it is necessarily bad. Even if a food is accepted by the public, it doesn’t necessarily mean it is necessarily good.”
Looking at Xiaoman's expression, Saga said this.
"understood."
Xiaoman seemed to understand something and spoke like this.
.............
After breakfast, Xiaoman led everyone to stroll around Dahuang City.
However, it is true that, as He Sheng said before, there is nothing fun to do in Dahuang City. Of course, no one actually feels that bored about it.
There is no need to say much about Guigui and Xiaoke, they both seem to be interested in basically everything.
As for Saga, she is now just traveling, looking around, listening to the conversations of passers-by, and looking at unknown buildings in the distance, which is quite interesting.
As for Nancy and Tu Fang...it's hard to say whether one of them is feeling bored, while the other is fiddling with his miniature iron man detection device.
They walked and walked, found a random restaurant to eat lunch, and then continued walking. Tu Fang and his friends were not annoyed yet, but Xiao Man was a little annoyed...
"The place ahead is the Shennong Temple, where Dahuang City worships Shennong. However, there are not many people here at this time. If you come a few days later, you might be able to catch the worship of Shennong.
It was very lively here at that time, with temple fairs, community operas, and many people coming here, it was very lively!"
Xiaoman pointed at the building in front and said this. Tu Fang looked in the direction Xiaoman pointed and saw the deepest part of the wide square.
There is a special geometric building outlined by countless rectangles, and a white dragon statue is carved in the middle of the building.
In the shadows under the building, there was some light coming from somewhere, illuminating the shadows at the bottom.
By the way, there were a few people in front of the Shennong Temple at this time, and it seemed that they were worshiping Shennong.
I seemed to have heard Xiaoman talking about community opera just now. By the way, is there also a Brother Xun under this community opera?
Tu Fang couldn't help but think so, but what Guigui and Xiaoke cared about was different from what he cared about.
"Shennong?" X2
Turtle and Xiaoke asked with some confusion.
"You don't even know Shennong, are you still Yan people? Forget it, let me tell you something."
Xiaoman was also a little surprised, then sighed and said
“Legend has it that 1000 years ago, Dahuang City was a rare piece of land that was rarely contaminated by source stones, and was an important piece of arable land in Yan Country.
A group of farmers came here, built huts and lived here. Life here was very comfortable, but natural disasters eventually found them...”
Having said that, Xiaoman sighed, and then continued speaking.
“Back then, the Great Wasteland City encountered an unprecedented natural disaster. Most of the land was severely polluted, and many monsters emerged to destroy the fields.
The efforts of several generations have all gone to waste...
It is not easy to reclaim land, and it is even more difficult to find a piece of land that can be reclaimed. Shennong knew what happened here and was determined to save this hard-earned land.
She led a group of farmers and settled down here, studying how to remove pollution and cultivate grains that can adapt to the environment and have a higher yield, generation after generation...”
Tu Fang listened more and more seriously, because this so-called Shennong reminded him of another person, a person who wanted to make sure no one in his country would go hungry...
"and then?"
Turtle asked.
"Finally, Shennong passed away on his way north to search for new seeds. People did not find Shennong's remains, but only a bamboo basket and a bag of rice.
People brought these things back to Dahuang City and built a tomb for Shennong. Some said that it was built on the summer solstice of the year when Shennong passed away.
People saw Shennong descending from the sky, stroking the harvested crops with satisfaction, and sowing new seeds in the fields.
Anyway, from then on, Dahuang City would hold community operas every year to welcome Shennong and pray for a good harvest."
"Does this Shennong...really exist?"
Tu Fang asked this because he always felt that Xiaoman's last words were a bit too magical... The dead cannot be resurrected unless...
For some reason, the image of Shu appeared in Tu Fang's mind...Tu Fang felt that this Shennong was most likely this Shu!
Shu is a piece of Sui Pian. It should be very easy for her to fake her death and come back to life. And living for a thousand years as a Sui Pian should not be a difficult task either.
"Of course she exists! There are records of her in the textbooks of Tianshifu! It also says that she is the earliest founder of Yan Country's agricultural theory!"
"Well, Xiaoman, take us to worship."
Regardless of whether this so-called Shennong was actually millet or not, Tu Fang felt that she should be worshipped.
"Well, follow me then!"
Xiaoman led Tu Fang and a few others forward, and during the process they met those unknown people. Tu Fang waited until they were far away before he started to ask.
"Xiao Man, who are they? Are they the staff of the Shennong Temple?"
“Oh, you mean those few people just now? They are not staff members. Judging from their clothes, they should be apprentices of the nearby agricultural master.
I guess they came to pay their respects and pray that they would not fail the course this year. This kind of thing happens every year, especially now when graduation is approaching. If something goes wrong with their project...
I guess I won’t be able to graduate then.”
Xiaoman waved her hand and spoke like this as if she was already accustomed to such things.
"Is that so? Then I hope that the brothers' research projects this year will not be eaten by some wild beasts."
Tu Fang said this, and Xiao Man's words reminded him of the stories of some agricultural universities and college students that he had seen on the Internet before he came to Terra.
For example, the grapes planted by a college student were picked by people on the roadside, and the watermelons planted by a college student were eaten by black pigs from the neighboring department.
While Tu Fang was still daydreaming, everyone had already arrived in front of the stairs.
"By the way, speaking of which, did you bring anything that could be used as a tribute?"
Halfway through the walk, Xiaoman turned her head and asked.
Everyone fell silent...
"Nancy, get out Xiao Ke's first aid kit."
Tu Fang said this.
"understood."
Nancy responded and then pulled out a box of honey cakes from her pocket.
Xiao Ke's eyes were immediately fixed on what Nancy was holding in her hand.
Tu Fang:............
"Forget it, Nancy, did you bring the incense for the sacrifice? If we use honey cakes as offerings, I'm afraid that Xiao Ke will come back and steal some when we're not paying attention..."
"Tu Fang, do you think I am such a person?"
Xiao Ke spoke with some dissatisfaction.
"I think you are."
Tu Fang spoke with certainty.
