They are fishermen of the Ganges.

We might as well call it Ganges' fishing'.

Ganges is the mother river of India, and its status is equivalent to that of the Yellow River to China.

Well, strictly speaking, the Ganges River has a much higher status in India.

After all, no one will go to the Yellow River to pray, no one will go to the Yellow River to burn the body, and no one will jump into the Yellow River to take a bath and drink the Yellow River water.

It is precisely because of the supremacy of the Ganges in India that a large number of people live on both sides of this river.

Especially the holy city, varanasi, is a holy place in the hearts of the three brothers.

Every year, many third brothers from other places take pains to come to the holy city by the Henghe River, jump into the Ganges River to bathe and pray, and then take a sip of' pure/pure/pure' Ganges water, which greatly sublimates their body and mind.

Legends about the holy city have also attracted a large number of foreign tourists. It's amazing to come here and taste the food cooked by Ganges.

Since ancient times, relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to draft, relying on the Ganges, of course, will eat the Ganges.

On the banks of the Yokogawa River outside the holy city, a group of people have been active for many years. They are very young, wearing only the simplest shorts and a tattered robe. Some people have boats, while others have empty hands.

Although they seem to be doing nothing, they actually have their own sources of income-

Hindus account for about 80% of India's total population. According to ancient Indian legends, the Ganges River was formed by Shiva's body fluids and was also the location of his Dojo. If he can return to the Ganges after his death, he will be blessed by God.

So many people will tell the younger generation that after his death, his body must be transported to Yokogawa for cremation, and then his ashes will be scattered in the river.

Throw them into the river, as well as these dead people's favorite clothes and belongings.

As for the poor who can't afford cremation firewood, they can only throw it directly into the river, let it drift with the tide, keep company with a large amount of garbage floating on the river, and finally slowly turn into nothingness and merge with the Ganges.

In addition, the holy city will hold grand sacrificial activities at both ends for three days, and clay sculptures dressed in jewels are often transported to Yokogawa and thrown into the river to keep Shiva company.

Among these things thrown into the river, there are always many valuable things, such as gold rings-

You know, Indians like gold very much. These bodies can be transported to the Ganges all the way, and their family circumstances will naturally not be too bad. There are always a few pieces of gold ornaments buried with him.

Many activities, such as cremation, sacrifice, Ganges bathing, etc., have their own advantages and do not interfere with each other, while "fishermen" generally move around a large crematorium.

As long as they see the smoke curling up, they will get there immediately, and wait for their families to throw the things of the deceased into the river and row.

People who don't have a boat immediately take off their tattered robes and jump into the Ganges with a bang, looking for valuable things on the surface of the water and in the water full of garbage.

Fishermen are excellent in water, and they are all "Bai Piao in the grapevine", er, no, they are "white bars in the grapevine".

Generally speaking, as long as their luck is not too bad, they will gain something more or less.

Although this practice of killing people and making money is despised by outsiders, these young people don't care.

They think that you work hard to find a job with a monthly salary of several thousand rupees at most, while you are free and earn more than working.

In that case, why not?
