"What did you say?" Dow's face froze, and the people around her looked at her with disdain.

During the Chinese New Year, Wu Zongqi didn't want to say anything more to Tao, so he asked the people from the Baihu Institute to hurry up to the training ground first.

There are still many villagers from the original Liantang Village.

"Lord Liang said, if everyone also wants to play, whether it is a person from a hundred households or not, as long as it is from this village, you can sign up, if you win, the reward will be very rich." Wu Zongqi said to the villagers.

"Oh, then I'm going, maybe I'll win something back." When a villager heard about the reward, he said.

"I'm going to take a look too, it's not that I'm greedy for this reward, this big New Year, it's a lively and lively one, and the next year will be prosperous."

"Hearing you say that, I want to go too, it's lively, bring joy home!"

The villagers responded one after another, and they all followed Wu Zongqi to the training ground, leaving Tao with an embarrassed face.

Soon, the news spread in the village, except for the thousands of households, the rest of the families sent people, even Liang Facai's family came, to see what activities were there.

Liang Hanchu just took out the big rope used to practice climbing in the guardhouse, and Shen Yingyue had already brought the reward for today's competition from home, and it was not a valuable thing, that is, a few pieces of fabric were selected from the rewards that Liang Hanchu received.

Liang Hanchu received a lot of rewards, and after distributing them to the eight families, there were still a lot, and the rewards for the competition were more than enough.

It is also worth sacrificing something, capturing the hearts of the army, making the guard more united, and making the military households under Liang Hanchu and the farmers in the village more harmonious.

"Lord Liang, everyone is here, what kind of competition is it?"

"Purify." Liang Hanchu replied.

Then I will explain to you how to play.

Since the Tang Dynasty, the practice of purification has been popular among the people, and it is used in many places as a New Year's blessing activity. It's just that Liantang Village doesn't have this custom, and he doesn't know if the military households from various places know how to play, so he explained it.

It didn't take long for everyone to understand.

"I know, I've seen people play in Fucheng, it's fun!"

"I haven't seen it, but I've heard of it! Let's play, then this year's harvest in our village must be good, right? ”

"That's right! In other places, they are all prayed for through purification, our village has not been, this year for the first time to play, set a precedent, there will definitely be good things coming! ”

……

The event was quickly anticipated.

Shen Yingyue was a little surprised, she couldn't imagine that people in this era would look forward to tug-of-war so much. Maybe it's because there is little entertainment interaction in this era, and tug-of-war has the meaning of praying for blessings, right?

After everyone agreed, Liang Hanchu began to arrange for people to be distributed, ten households in each group, a total of fifteen people were selected to fight, two by two, and the winner was promoted to the next game, and there was no restriction on adults, children, men and women.

Soon, the groups were divided according to the lottery method, and the ten families were divided into groups, and the ten families discussed and selected ten people.

Shen Yingyue's family was not in a group with the Wang family and Zheng Lin's family, but they were in a group with the chief and their family.

Liang Hanchu wanted to be a referee, but he didn't participate, so he couldn't be selected.
