"I'll go with Mr. Xiao that night, although your grandfather said that he only taught me Chinese medicine for a few days, but he can only blame me for my dull talent and vast knowledge, and I can only learn a little bit of it, and I can't get it. ”

"Although the old man doesn't recognize me as an apprentice, he just intersects with each other as equals, but after all, there is a master and apprentice, whether it is as a friend or an apprentice, I have to go and worship. ”

Old Man Wang slowed down, and a look of nostalgia flashed in his cloudy eyes, as if he remembered the pride he had with Grandpa Xu Huai on wine and singing many years ago.

"No need, old man, the road is far and rugged, and it is late, it is inconvenient for you to walk, it is better to be at home, if you fall on the road, it is the sin of the boy. ”

"You don't have to worry about your grandfather, just find a quiet place at home to eat at the table, light a stick of incense for his old man, and then talk to him. ”

Xu Huai replied to the old man Wang leisurely, and for safety reasons, he did not agree to let the old man go with him at night.

The Xu family, which has been completely inherited for thousands of years, is naturally different from ordinary people, and generally according to the family rules, they will basically be buried in the open space behind the family ancestral hall.

The Xu family's house on Kunlun Mountain sits on more than two white acres, and the area is far beyond ordinary people's imagination, but what no one knows is that one-third of the location is used as a cemetery, which houses the ancestors of the Xu family.

According to common sense, after the death of the old man, he should be directly buried in the Xu family cemetery as the head of this generation.

But until now, Xu Huai didn't understand.

Why, the old man expected that his life was approaching, and before leaving, he specially instructed him not to bury his bones in the Xu family cemetery according to the family rules, but chose an unknown peak in the Kunlun Mountains and simply completed the funeral.

"Old man, don't say much........."

Seeing that Old Man Wang was about to open his mouth and was about to say something, Xu Huai opened his mouth directly and blocked Old Man Wang's words back.

"Well, the little gentleman has said so, and I won't force it. ”

The old man looked at Xu Huai, sighed deeply, and said slowly.

"Elder Wang, don't mind too much, it's just a thought, just remember it in your heart, and the old man will know it in the spirit of the sky. ”

"It's good, it's good!"

In this way, talking and chatting all the way, the group came to the lake in the town,

"Old Wangtou, why are you ferrying, Lao Li? Wasn't he doing it all in the first place? Why? Changed? Why didn't anyone notify me?"

After seeing that the person on the boat was not the familiar Lao Li, but the old Wang Tou of Lao Li's same village, Wang Lao was puzzled and asked.

"It turned out to be Wang Lao and Brother Xu, this is to see the dragon lantern, right?"

"Yes, Uncle Wang, Xiaoxian is clamoring to see it. Xu Huai said with a smile.

"Don't talk about anything else, why did you suddenly change people on the ferry, hasn't Lao Li been doing it for more than ten years?"

"Haha, Wang Lao, this old Li Tou's son has a career in the big city outside, earns a lot of money, buys a house, and takes Lao Li Tou to the city to enjoy Qingfu a few days ago. ”

The old Wang Tou smiled and explained the reason to Wang Lao, and his eyes revealed a sense of envy.

"I see, this is a happy event, Lao Li Tou has suffered for most of his life, and now he is completely liberated, haha!"

When Wang Lao heard this, he was also happy for Lao Litou.

But

Xu Huai, who was standing on the side and listening, felt a little puzzled, as we all know, Li Dongsheng, the son of Lao Li Tou, did not like to study since he was a child, and he dropped out of school early, and then became a bastard.

Over the years, he has been wandering in society, without a regular job, acting as the dregs of society, and basically having to gnaw at the old age every month to survive.

Why suddenly, this idle Li Dongsheng changed his temperament, and what is even more outrageous is that he also made a lot of money and bought a house in the city.

It's really hard to figure out!

However, Xu Huai didn't dig deeper, after all, this is a great thing, everyone is happy, and who will think about it.

More than ten minutes later,

The group finally came to town,

As soon as he got off the dock, Xu Huai saw that the stage had already been set up in the small square in the town, and a group of people, three circles inside and three circles outside, surrounded the entire audience area.

The gongs and drums are noisy, and the sound of loud cheers is endless, one after another, and it is a lively scene.

"Brother, hurry up, the dragon lantern is about to start. ”

As she spoke, the little girl climbed down from Da Bai's body, and then led Da Bai with one hand and Xu Huai with the other to run forward.

"You girl, slow down, there are too many people, don't fall!"

Xu Huai looked at the little fairy who was as big as the little one, and hurriedly rushed forward, and couldn't help but feel a little funny.

"Old man, let's go in, the children can't wait. Xu Huai smiled and pointed to the little girl and Dabao, and said to Wang Lao.

"Okay! Let's go inside. ”

Then, Xu Huai took the little girl, took Old Man Wang and Dabao, squeezed in along the crowd, and came to the stage.

Today, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it is the annual Lantern Festival, here, we all of the Mingguang Performance Troupe, I wish you a happy holiday............

"It's officially begins!"

Coincidentally, Xu Huai and the little girl had just squeezed to the stage, and the host on the stage had just begun to read out the opening speech.

In response to an old saying: "It's better to be in time than to be in a hurry!"

"Brother, it's on!"

then

I saw twelve young and strong men walking away from the left side of the stage, each of them holding a long pole wrapped in yellow skin, and above the pole was connected to the "dragon", and each pole was a part of the dragon.

The so-called dragon dance is preceded by flags, gongs and drums, and horns, and the dragon body is invited out of the temple, connected to the dragon head and tail, and the eye-dotting ceremony is held.

The body of the dragon is tied into a round dragon shape with bamboo, the knots are connected, the outside is covered with a huge red cloth painted with dragon scales, there is a person holding the pole every five or six feet, and the distance between the head and the tail is about ten zhang long.

In front of the dragon by a person holding a rod to lead the front, the top of the rod erects a huge ball, as a guide, when dancing, the giant ball swings around the front and back, the dragon head is like grabbing the ball, causing the dragon body to swim and fly.
