The main hall of the ancestral hall is very empty, only the deepest part is placed with a god platform, and the statue of the Ziwei Emperor is enshrined in the middle, and a god seat nearly one zhang high is placed on both sides.

It is written on the throne of the ancestors of China and the throne of the sages of China.

There is a small podium diagonally in front of the shrine, and directly opposite is a row of log-colored seats, Liu Ximing plans to hire a temple blessing in the future to be responsible for presiding over the daily wedding and funeral blessing ceremony.

The white wall plaster painted inside the entire hall, combined with the good light conditions, gives people a bright and solemn feeling.

"Yes, with Mr. in charge, it is really a success, and tomorrow's worship activities seem to be no problem."

Liu Ximing turned around to check it, and saw that the layout inside basically met his requirements, so he immediately praised Zhou Liangcai a few words.

Zhou Liangcai stroked his beard with some emotion, "You still have a furrow in your chest, and you have to build the ancestral hall before the year, so that the hearts of the people in the village will be more stable. ”

Liu Ximing smiled in his heart, when it comes to fooling people, the white-skinned pastors have studied it for thousands of years, and they must use it decisively.

Tomorrow's activities are mainly held in the ancestral hall and the sports field, seeing that there is no big problem in the ancestral hall, Liu Ximing took Liu Xihe and others directly from the small door on the side of the shrine to walk out of the main hall and go to the sports field to check.

The sports field was built in the southeast corner of the ancestral hall, which has been named the Jiangqi Sports Field by Liu Ximing, which is taken from the meaning of capturing the flag.

In the middle of the stadium is a keju field, surrounded by a running track, and due to the lack of development of construction technology, the three rows of seats near the track are all made of stone slurry concrete, and the outer layers of seats are made of steel frames and wooden planks.

Su Jin personally led people to arrange various tasks in the sports field, and as soon as he saw Liu Ximing bring people over, he immediately stepped forward and bowed and said: "Young master, everything has been prepared, just wait for this Spring Festival Gala tomorrow night." ”

Liu Ximing turned around, and saw that the stage and the launch racks of the fireworks were almost ready, and the colorful banners everywhere had been pulled up, and he nodded with a smile and praised Su Jin, and he could finally rest and rest.

"Crackle Crackle"

On the Chinese New Year's Eve, the people on duty began to set off firecrackers in the People's Square early, and the sound of strings of firecrackers woke the silver-clad village from its silence.

"It's New Year's Day"

Groups of children and adults in new clothes began to shuttle through the streets, and everyone played back and forth with various rattles, small windmills and other toys bought from the city from grocery stores, bringing the village into the joy of the New Year.

Since the village canteen is still open, in order to meet the dining needs of more than 10,000 people, the entire duty room has been expanded to nearly 300 people.

Soon, from the center of the village to the wasteland of the Liu family's mansion, the people in the house began to kill chickens and sheep continuously to prepare for the noon sacrifice event.

When the time was about to arrive, Liu Ximing got Liu Xihe's report and knew that the three animals had been prepared, so he took Chen Yiding, Su Jin and a group of other managers from the side room of the main hall of the ancestral hall into the main hall, ready to start the sacrificial activities.

For today's sacrifice, Liu Ximing deliberately put on a lake-blue embroidered white-collar brocade robe, wore a black square scarf, tied up all the hair he had approved in the past, and wore a pair of red square hats on his feet, and the whole person looked a little more elegant with white.

At this time, the crowd in the square began to enter the main hall in an orderly manner under the guidance of the Long Xiang group, of course, due to space constraints, only important families can all participate, and other people can only send the male host as a representative.

After Liu Ximing and the others came out, they sat directly in the front row of the main hall of the ancestral hall, and the Taoist priests invited from Lingyun Mountain also temporarily acted as music bands and began to play welcome music.

It seems that in the future, we will have to cultivate a music class, Liu Ximing thought when he saw this scene.

After waiting for a while, Zhou Liang saw that people were almost coming in, he flicked his sleeves and got up from his seat, and walked towards the podium in front of the main hall with his hands in his hands.

At this time, the sound of the music suddenly became low, and Zhou Liangcai's loud voice sounded in the main hall.

"All the villagers of Liujia Village, blessed by God and blessed by the ancestors, under the leadership of the second young master, with the joint efforts of the whole village, the development of my Liujia Village can be described as thriving, today is a good day for families to reunite and celebrate the Spring Festival, let us be grateful, and pray to the Emperor Ziwei and the ancestors for a higher level in the coming year."

Of course, the draft of Zhou Liangcai's speech was provided by Liu Ximing, and he was afraid that Zhou Liangcai would come up and make everyone scratch their heads, so he simply wrote an official article according to the later generations.

"The Deacons Are in Place"

"Soraku"

"Ask the Worshippers to Offer Sacrifices"

When Liu Ximing heard this, he immediately stood upright, facing the eyes of the audience, and walked forward to the position of the god platform with a serious face.

Immediately, three servants came to him with pigs, chickens, and fish on wooden trays covered with red cloth.

Liu Ximing took a deep breath, first picked up the pork and bowed down to the stage, while reading loudly: "Enjoy peace with a dedication." ”

"Two Offerings to Happiness"

"Three Offerings to Enjoy Wealth"

Chen Yiding, Liu Xihe, Su Jin and several other high-ranking deacons also stepped forward to offer fruits, wine and other sacrifices, and shouted loudly: "Sincere respect to heaven."

After the sacrifice was finished, Liu Ximing immediately took a step back, led Chen Yiding and others to kneel directly on the futon next to him and kowtowed three heads, while reading aloud: "Liu Ximing, the head of Liujia Village, brings the whole village to thank the immortals and Chinese ancestors and sages. ”

"Stand up and bow", Zhou Liangcai immediately answered and shouted loudly.

The crowd in the main hall all stood up at once, folded their hands and bowed in worship.

Everyone's expressions became solemn, and with the sound of silk and bamboo, the majestic music of the canons began to sound, and all the people in the main hall began to recite the prayers prepared by Liu Xi.

"Pray to the sky, bless the earth, martyr ancestors, bless my family......"

The sound of pious prayers resounded throughout the main hall, and with the villagers praying together in the square outside the upper hall, Liujia Village suddenly fell into a holy atmosphere.

"Mage, Please"

After the prayer was recited, Liu Ximing and the others immediately retreated from the front of the shrine, and Ma Yuanjing, a high-ranking member of Lingyun Mountain, wore a gossip robe, and began to worship the gods in front of the shrine with a few small Taoist priests.

"The Jiao Festival will last until the afternoon, and villagers who are willing to worship can go to the main hall on their own, and there will be juggling performances and fireworks at the Jiangqi Sports Ground in the evening, so please don't be absent."

Zhou Liangcai, as the host, immediately announced the arrival of the Taoist priests during the gap between the scenes.

The crowd gathered in the square immediately became excited, and everyone walked into the main hall in groups to begin worshipping.

At noon and in the evening, the canteen directly moved the food to the People's Square to make a buffet meal, and the duty room prepared nearly 300 pigs and sheep for these two meals, so that the people in the account room almost didn't fight with them.

In the evening, the entire Jiangqi Sports Stadium was brightly lit, and the troupe invited from the city performed all kinds of juggling and drama, which gave a group of villagers who had never seen much of the world a lot of knowledge.

"Mother, look, let's start lighting fireworks."

Liu Xi'an pulled Liu Chen, who was talking with his mother with a warm face, and pointed to the field and began to shout loudly.

All the villagers in the audience also noticed Liu Ximing and others who walked into the venue and were about to light fireworks, and everyone began to make noise.

With bursts of roaring, colorful fireworks took off one after another, and the sky of Liujia Village was almost completely lit up.

Where have the people of Liujia Village seen this kind of scene, one by one they opened their mouths wide and could see that after this scene, they have stayed in the hearts of everyone in Liujia Village, and it has become a scenery that will never be erased by lighting up everyone's inner world.

Liu Ximing took the megaphone and shouted loudly with all his strength: "The eighth year of Chongzhen has arrived. ”

"Hooray"

There was cheering in the stadium.

Liu Ximing looked at this scene with a lot of emotion, thinking back to the scene of the Chinese New Year a year ago, he unconsciously became the leader of more than 10,000 people, and finally did not waste time in vain.
