In Chang'an City, today is the day of the city god's patrol, the people are scrambling to watch, there is a team at the door of the Chang'an City God's Temple, the head is an eight-lift sedan chair, the sedan chair is wider than the general sedan chair, boxy, but there is no sedan body, only the base, with the temple to celebrate the sound of "the city god out of the patrol!" "It was carried out of the city god temple by two wrestlers holding the rattan statue of the city god, respectfully put the rattan statue on the sedan chair, and the temple Zhu put the tribute in front of the rattan statue, and the people followed the temple to worship the rattan statue three times before going out on patrol.

Chang'an City's real name is Ji Xin, is the general of Han Gaozu, Han Gaozu was besieged in Chang'an, Ji Xin let Han Gaozu escape, and then he pretended to be Han Gaozu, was caught by Chu Gaozu, as a result, Chu Overlord found out that he was not Han Gaozu, so he ordered someone to burn it, and the people of Chang'an City felt his loyalty, so he announced to Taiyi, and named him Chang'an City God.

The first step in the patrol is the temple blessing. Scattering paper money while walking, shouting all the way "Lord Chenghuang is out on patrol, and the idlers are scattered!" "Behind is the sedan chair of the city god, carried by eight wrestlers, four wrestlers in the front and back, four wrestlers on the left and right, and behind them are two rows of men, wearing white clothes and white trousers, with flags in their hands. The people on both sides vied with each other to watch, and those who believed and those who did not believe bowed to the city god, and those who did not believe stopped to watch.

There are two women in the crowd, the older one is seventeen or eighteen years old, the younger one is only thirteen or fourteen years old, they are the daughters of the shopkeeper of the tailor shop on the street, surnamed Li, the two girls are also born with clear eyebrows, they also came to see the city god on patrol, they saw the patrol team from a distance, the sisters looked at the rattan statue of the city god, only to see the rattan statue, pierced vividly, the face is clearly distinguishable, the tiger eyes are round, heroic and majestic, wearing golden helmets and gold armor, looking at the battlefield general. At this time, the eldest daughter of the shopkeeper Li spoke, "Hey, sister, you see that Chenghuang Ye looks so handsome." The youngest daughter smiled and took her sister's words, "Yes, yes, isn't my sister moved by her heart and has taken a fancy to Lord Chenghuang?" Do you want to marry him? The eldest daughter of the shopkeeper Li blushed and scolded with a smile, "You little girl, you really can't speak, begging for a beating!" As he spoke, he took the embroidered handkerchief in his hand to hit his sister, but suddenly a strange wind blew, and the handkerchief in her hand fell on the hand of the vine statue of the city god, and the eldest daughter of the shopkeeper Li saw the handkerchief fly over, so she glanced at the city god again, it didn't matter, after reading it, she couldn't take her eyes off it, so she looked at it stunned, how her sister called her, she shouldn't.

Shopkeeper Li was anxious at this time, his two daughters went out to see the city god on patrol, but as soon as he came back, the eldest daughter was sick, with a high fever, and her mouth was still talking nonsense, and the doctors he invited said that the pulse was normal, not a sick person, but the daughter's forehead was hot and she could boil eggs, and the younger daughter was also trembling and stood aside and didn't dare to speak. Shopkeeper Li felt that something was wrong, so he asked his youngest daughter, "Girl, you and your sister went out today, did you eat anything unclean?" "No...... No, my sister and I didn't eat anything. "What's going on?" The youngest daughter weighed it before telling about the day's events, and when the shopkeeper Li heard it, he was angry, "Oops! Lord Chenghuang is the god of yin, did you also make a joke? You don't know how important it is! Shopkeeper Li sighed, shook his head, and went out, leaving only the younger daughter to take care of the eldest daughter, "Lord Chenghuang, Lord Chenghuang......" The younger sister couldn't help but shudder when she listened to her sister's nonsense.

Three days later, the eldest daughter of the shopkeeper Li died, but his daughter went without getting married, the shopkeeper Li felt that it was not a taste, so he put his heart sideways, put a flowing water seat at home, and invited guests for three days, and said to the old folks that his daughter was married to the city god, and the funeral should be done as a happy event.

Miaozhu has a headache, and it is not a matter for the corpse to be placed in the temple, but it is impossible to say if you lose it, after all, now the whole city knows that the city god married the daughter of the Li family, and she is already the grandmother of the city god. So Miao Zhu thought of a trick, put the corpse in a posture of the seat, and asked someone to wrap it in mud outside, paint it after drying, and the whole corpse was molded into a statue, which was placed next to the statue of the god of the city god, and said that this was the grandmother of the city god.
