Jiang Liushu said: "Speaking of which, among these many festivals, the Shangsi Festival and the Duanyang Festival are the most interesting. ”

Lin Xuanzhi took a sip of wine lightly and said with a smile: "The Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth month of May is the day of the poisonous moon and poison, and you need to bathe in bluegrass soup to remove the poison, but you can't be sloppy." Moreover, this is a big day to commemorate Wu Zixu, Jie Zitui, and Qu Yuan, which has deep meaning for us literati. ”

Shen Kang groaned, remembering that according to the "Book of Rites", the Dragon Boat Festival originated from the orchid bathing of the Zhou Dynasty. The ancients picked orchid grass in May, and the custom of bathing and removing poison with orchid soup prevailed.

In later generations, these customs were simplified to the extreme, and he did not see them. When he crossed over to the Ming Dynasty, he also spent more festivals at home, wrapped a zongzi, hung calamus mugwort leaves on the door, and then bathed in orchid soup, tied the Dragon Boat Festival, wore mugwort leaves, and the five poisonous spirit talismans were the standard for normal ancient family festivals.

Wang Lucao shook the fan with a smile and said slowly: "Yulan soup is full of flowers, and the clothes are beautiful." Qu Yuan's endowment is quite beautiful and fascinating. ”

Shen Kang said: "In the dry cloud fu, which is similar to Yun Zhongjun, it is all about people's expectations and thoughts for the gods, but in the final analysis, it is just a prayer for rain, saying that it is an infatuation with the gods, but it is better to say that it is the hope for rain. I have long heard that the belief in gods among the people of the foreign domain is fundamentally different from the belief of my Chinese children. ”

In their view, the so-called faith is to create a god out of thin air that people can blindly worship, govern people's thoughts, believe in them, and dedicate themselves.

They do not understand the beliefs of the Chinese people.

In the West, the gods are infinitely big, in the distant mythological period, the whole world has a legend of a great flood, the Western world escaped with Noah's Ark, and in the East, we have a Dayu, for the people to control the water, save the people from fire and water.

We use our own hands to dredge the river and evacuate the floods, and we are accustomed to saving ourselves instead of waiting for salvation from the sky.

Our so-called feudal superstitions are all based on the fear of nature and mysterious forces, but all mysterious forces have a more powerful positive force to regulate and govern them, that is, our gods, our beliefs.

We believe that the living exist in the yang world, and the soul remains in the netherworld. That's because we still miss the deceased, and we turn our thoughts about the deceased into a mysterious world, so that we can have a sustenance.

We respect teachers, we are a country of etiquette, we have a hundred schools of thought in culture, and we have a national management mechanism that has been passed down and continuously improved for nearly a thousand years.

Tianxingjian, a gentleman strives for self-improvement, this is our belief!

Jiang Liushu smiled and said, "Ha, where do the foreign domains understand our beliefs?" We revere nature and turn the worship of nature into entities, like the god of thunder, rain, and river. Let's revere heaven and earth and turn it into the land of the emperor and queen of heaven in the oath. Let's revere our ancestors, set them up as tablets, and worship them from generation to generation. ”

Speaking of the place of arising, he stood up, with one hand behind his back, and the other in mid-air: "We revere ourselves and believe that man will conquer heaven." With such a superb thought, how can the people of his foreign domain understand? ”

Lin Xuanzhi said with a smile: "The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister." What we revere is the emperor who led our Ming people! The purpose of multiplying from generation to generation is not to fill the stomach, but to live a better life. ”

Shen Kang said: "Yes, they don't understand. ”

In the past, Shen Kang didn't understand what the beliefs of the people of the Celestial Empire were.

There are various religions in foreign countries, but in our native Taoism, it can really be described as full of gods and Buddhas. But when they said this today, Shen Kang finally understood.

We are just turning our hopes for a better life into reality.

We pray for health, for abundance, for peace. However, as the saying goes, there are nine doctors in ten ways. What we believe in is ourselves.

We worship the ancestral tablets for generations, and we will never forget our ancestors, and we will never forget the road our family has walked.

Say we don't have faith?

It's just that their thinking is not high enough to understand us.

Shen Kang and Yourong straightened their backs with a smile, and their smiles were shining, this is the confidence that my Chinese sons and daughters should have!

Wang Lucao saw that they were talking lively, but he smiled lightly without care, and shook his fan slowly and reservedly: "I, the descendant of the Ming Dynasty, why do you let those Fanbang remarks in your eyes?" ”

He smiled lowly, and continued: "Rao is the northern and southern Japanese who have been invading my Ming border for many years, and the king of this world is still my Daming." ”

The king of this world is still my great master!

It's me Daming!

Shen Kang's eyes were shining, what a confidence he was!

Jiang Liusu smiled and said, "Brother Wang is right! The king of this world is still my great master! It's my Huaxia son! ”

Lin Xuanzhi nodded in agreement, then lowered his head slightly, and then said, "One day, we will drive out those dog thieves who dare to covet my Ming Frontier!" If you don't accept it once, we will fight it ten times, and if you don't accept it ten times, we will beat him twenty times, and beat him a hundred times, until they willingly submit to my Daming feet! ”

The most sincere love for the country collided fiercely among these young people in their prime.

Isn't there hope for the Ming Dynasty?

You open your eyes and look at these teenagers around you, who dares to say that there is no hope for the Ming Dynasty, who dares to say that the backbone of the Ming people is bent?

Self-confidence, self-improvement, and the future of the Ming Dynasty are in the hands of these teenagers here.

Before the filth of officialdom, how straight the backs of these teenagers were! Shen Kang looked at them, unconsciously infected by them, that day Liang Qichao said, young people are strong in China, how many Chinese hearts have been inspired!

Chinese in the long river of time, we have experienced countless prosperity and depression, we have dominated the world, and we have also been slaves, dogs, horses and cows. We have been through the ages, traversing the eight wildernesses, and the future is like the sea, and the future is long.

In this forest of the world, we will always occupy a place.

The current Ming may have many shortcomings, it is like the sun whose light is temporarily obscured, as long as we clear the evil obstacles, we can finally see the light of the sky!

Shen Kang felt that he was full of strength, this kind of accumulated power, which made Daming stronger and made the life of the people of Daming better, made Shen Kang's limbs and bones gallop with blood.

Shen Kang's twilight, among these teenagers who were pushing cups and changing lamps, and leading to singing, was lifted a thick shell, making the vitality in his heart gradually rise and swirl.
