"Dance, what dance?" Feng Shanyue thought that she was the kind of person with underdeveloped limbs, and it was better to let her dance than to let her jump into the river. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Wind Dance. ”

"What kind of dance is this?"

"The dance of praying for rain, and our Fire Phoenix Country has always been danced by witches. ”

"Can you jump?"

"Of course it will!, every witch will!" Nangong Xue said as a matter of course, "When I was in my hometown before, I used to dance this dance to pray for rain. ”

"Uh...... Does it work?"

"As long as you are sincere in your heart, you will definitely be able to move the Divine Monarch and rain down. ”

Feng Shanyue rolled her eyes in her heart, which meant that this wind and pheasant dance may not work, if it rained after the dance, it was a success in praying for rain. If it doesn't rain, it's not sincere enough.

"But I don't know how to do this! In my hometown, I don't have to do this dance to pray for rain. ”

"No, where is your hometown, why is it so strange?"

"You don't care about this, anyway, I can't dance this dance, so you don't have to participate in this festival to pray for rain, right?"

Nangong Xue shook her head, "That's not good." This time, the lord of the country personally presided over the sacrifice, which was different from the usual rain prayer ceremony, and the shrine maidens dancing in the wind alone cost one hundred and eight. And we only have one hundred and six female students in the entire Wuzhen Academy. ”

"That's two left, where can I find them?"

"Master Lan and Master Jade will also join in, making up exactly one hundred and eight. ”

"Then I really can't escape?" Feng Shanyue thought of praying for rain dance, and remembered that she had seen those masked shamans dancing on TV before, wouldn't this wind dance be the same?

Nangong Xue nodded, "Actually, you don't have to worry, even if you can't jump, it doesn't matter." Because the lord of the country attaches great importance to this sacrifice, the place of sacrifice is placed in the Fengming Palace in the eastern suburbs. This is the tomb of the previous kings, and it is the most sacred place for our Fire Phoenix Kingdom. The shrine maidens who participate in the dance have to stay there a month in advance and practice the wind goose dance. You have a month to learn, and you're so smart, you're sure you can learn. ”

"Why do you have to practice for a month and so long?

"Of course you need to, there are one hundred and eight people participating in the dance this time, and whether they can cooperate with each other, whether the movements are neat, and whether the faith is pious or not will affect the effect of praying for rain. Therefore, it is necessary to practice in advance. ”

"Is it okay to just dance and pray for rain from the shrine maiden?"

"Of course not, I still have to dance. ”

"What kind of dance is this?"

"This is actually a dance to drive away evil spirits and drive away epidemics. Nangong Xue frowned and looked at Feng Shanyue, "Where is your hometown?

Feng Shanyue shrugged, "Just tell me about it!"

"Okay. This time, one hundred and eight people will be danced, all of them must be witches, and they are also selected from the Wuzhen Academy. I heard that this time it was going to be a dance of the first king, and these people were going to pretend to be the first king and the ministers who had died, and pray with the lord of the kingdom in the hope that they would move the heavens and save the people. ”

Since the ceremony of praying for rain was held a month later, time was short. So Feng Shanyue and they moved to Fengming Palace the next day and were arranged to live in the lower hall, which is the place where ordinary officials rest and wait when they usually worship their ancestors.

In order not to make a fool of herself in front of everyone, Feng Shanyue followed Nangong Xue to learn the Wind Pheasant Dance in advance, fortunately, this dance movement is relatively simple, most of them are hands up, and then go back to the left and right to pray, and then with some spell formulas.

However, Nangong Xue is a strict teacher, and she is very dissatisfied with Feng Shanyue's perfunctory attitude after learning the movements, so she took advantage of the early morning when there were few people, and pulled Feng Shanyue to the small garden to practice.

"Come, Sugizuki, this rockery is the fire in the middle of the official dance, you can dance the wind dance for me according to the movements I taught. ”

"No," Feng Shanyue looked around, "How embarrassed is it if someone comes to see it?"

Nangong Xue squinted and glanced at her threateningly, "Do you want to lose face in front of everyone when one hundred and eight people jump together in a while?"

Feng Shanyue was speechless, so she had to honestly follow Nangong Xue's teaching, and kept praying around the rockery, chanting words in her mouth. She felt that if someone passed by at this time, she must have thought that she had seen a nervous disorder early in the morning.

"You have to move a little bigger, so that the Divine Monarch can see your piety. ”

"Oh, you're stepping too big and you're going to step on the feet of the person in front of you. ”

"What are you doing? Wave your sleeves so far that if you sweep it to the fire, it will burn. ”

Nangong Xue watched from the side, muttering about correcting Feng Shanyue's mistakes. Feng Shanyue feels that she has become a little swallow, and she is being tortured by Mama Rong to learn palace etiquette!

"Xiaoxue, it's just practice now, don't be so strict, right?"

"No, you must know that the wind dance is danced to pray for rain, and the people are still waiting for us to ask for rain for them, and they must not be perfunctory. Do it all over again!"

Feng Shanyue didn't have such a strong sense of mission, but she couldn't resist the stern Nangong Xue, so she had to cheer up and dance as standard as possible.

"Yo yo yo! Who is this, what are you dancing here early in the morning?" A mocking female voice came, Feng Shanyue stopped her movements and looked over, it turned out to be Fang Qingzhu, who had not been seen for a long time.

"Xiaoxue, isn't she recuperating at home, why did she get here?"

Nangong Xue pursed her lips, "To be able to participate in this Wind Goose Dance, she will dance even if she only has half a breath left." ”

"Why?"

Nangong Xue whispered, "I heard that in the past, there was a witch who was favored by the first king during the sacrifice and married into the palace as a concubine. What's more, this is an opportunity to show your face in front of all your subjects, and only you, a fool, will be casually perfunctory. Everybody else takes it very seriously!"

"Hey, I said you two have said enough, when I'm transparent?" Fang Qingzhu walked over angrily and glared at the two.

Feng Shanyue shook her head, "Miss Fang is such a big pestle here, unless I am blind, I really can't be transparent." ”

This can step on Fang Qingzhu's sore feet, because what she hates most is that she has a tall figure, compared with Feng Shanyue and Nangong Xue, it is not enough to be a bird.

"You slut, your mouth is still so tricky, see if I don't clean you up!"

Before Fang Qingzhu could make a move, Nangong Xue took a step forward, blocking in front of Feng Shanyue, staring at her expressionlessly. Fang Qingzhu suddenly remembered that it was this woman who stopped him in Kunyuan that day. She remembered that this woman had a lot of strength and seemed to have some ability.

She was not a fool, she immediately decided to give up the hard work, so she raised her hands and took two steps back, "Okay, okay, let's talk well, okay?"
