Chapter 161: Boys and Girls
Lin Fusheng took off the lantern at the door, held his eldest daughter in one hand, Lin's wife held his son, Chen Yimu walked beside Lin Fusheng, and the group walked towards Heshen Square.
There are a lot fewer pedestrians on the streets than during the day, so they should all go to River God Square.
Walking on the stone bridge, Chen Yimu can see the flickering lights in the distance accompanied by sometimes passionate, sometimes melodious music.
"Brother, brother, what are you still doing in a daze, keep up." The little boy turned his head and shouted.
Chen Yimu realized that he was far away, so he hurriedly followed and said, "Here, I just lost my mind." ”
"It's the River God Square over there, there's a music and light show here, and it's estimated that everyone will go there." Lin Fusheng said.
"I watch the light show too!"
"I want it too, I want it too!"
When the two children heard this, they cried out loudly, and they both wanted to go and see it quickly.
"Okay, then let's hurry up, whoever falls behind the ass will confiscate the toys!" Lin's wife said.
"Don't, don't confiscate my toys." The little boy hurriedly shook his head.
"Just take my brother's, Dad, let's go!" The little girl hurriedly took Lin Fusheng's hand and wanted to drag it away.
"Hahaha......"
The two children are arguing, and the adults are laughing, this is a time that no one wants to miss.
River God Square.
On the west side of Shiqiao Water Town, it is said to be a square, but it is actually a small island.
Before, Shiqiao Water Town relied on water for draft, and one year the river dried up and bottomed out, and the people were struggling to make a living.
Passing by a person, he opened the altar for three days and three nights, praying for rain from the river god.
On the night of the third day, a sudden strong wind blew and overturned the altar, and nectar, and then nectar fell from heaven.
The villagers knelt on the ground and bowed to thank the river god for the rain.
The Taoist left a note and a portrait of the river god, and told the villagers to build a river temple and worship the river god on the third day of the seventh lunar month every year to pray for good weather in the coming year.
Later generations kept this in mind and held the River Lantern Festival every year to worship the river god.
Later, it gradually evolved into a public event, and it also attracted many people to Shiqiao Water Town to see this folk activity.
The group came to the River God Square, which was already overcrowded.
The staff on the periphery saw Lin Fusheng and hurriedly led them inside.
"Hello, I'm sorry, you can't go in here!" The staff stopped Chen Yimu.
The little girl hurriedly shook Lin Fusheng's arm, Lin Fusheng turned his head and saw Chen Yimu who was stopped, and hurriedly said, "Ah Kun, he is my friend." ”
"Acquaintance, I'm sorry, you can go in." Ah Kun got out of the way.
"Thank you." Chen Yimu thanked him and walked in.
"It's not that people from this village are basically not allowed to come in, but it doesn't matter, as long as there are people you know, you can enter, there are no secrets." Lin Fusheng explained softly.
"It's really human!"
Everyone here knows each other, and the relationship is good, so it doesn't matter if you bring someone in.
River Temple!
At this time, several people walked into the river temple, and most of the people sitting inside were relatively old people.
After seeing Lin Fusheng come in, the uncle who was sitting on top of him beckoned to him.
"Uncle Tai!"
"Uncle Tai!"
The two children said hello loudly.
"Come on, come on, come to Uncle Tai." Uncle beckoned with a smile on his face.
The two children looked at their parents, Lin Fusheng and his wife nodded, and the two children happily ran to the uncle in front of them.
Chen Yimu looked inside the River Temple, which was similar to an ordinary temple.
It's just that the things that are embellished are all related to the river, and what is enshrined is a statue of a river god with a human body and a fish's head.
"Tell me something!"
Uncle coughed lightly and said, "This year's River Lantern Festival is well held. ”
"Fusheng's two children, this year as a boy and a girl sacrifice to the river god, everyone must pay attention to the safety of the children, and nothing can happen."
"Boys and girls? Sacrifice? Chen Yimu frowned puzzled.
What age is this, and the sacrifice of virgins and boys and girls?
Fake, right?
Why aren't Brother Lin and his wife in a hurry at all???
"And the order of the site must be maintained, and the safety of tourists is our top priority."
"Okay, let's not talk about it, let's let the two children take a break!"
"Burn incense!"
After the uncle said to everyone, he said softly to the children next to him: "You sit here obediently, and my uncle will buy you candy to eat." ”
The staff lit incense and handed out three to no one.
"Worship the river god!"
Uncle stood in front and shouted with full of anger.
The people in the back bowed down, and the two children sat in front, looking at the group of people like this, they thought it was very funny, and they didn't cry or make trouble.
"Say goodbye to the Messenger!"
And when they worshipped, they worshipped the boys and the girls.
"Respect heaven and earth!"
The three worships are to worship heaven and earth, and pray for good weather and good weather.
Subsequently, a staff member stepped forward and took the incense from everyone's hands, came to the river god, and inserted it on the incense burner.
"Brother Lin, don't you worry about sacrificing boys and girls?" Chen Yimu asked puzzled.
"Oh, what are you worried about, brother, you don't know, you see what's over there." Lin Fusheng said with a smile.
Looking in the direction of Lin Fusheng's finger, he saw a bunch of boys and girls with paper tied in front of the offering table.
Lin Fusheng explained: "What time is it now, it is illegal to kill someone, of course, it is not really to sacrifice my child, but it is similar to a stand-in." ”
I see!
At this time, the sound of the music and light show outside slowly ended.
Boom!
There was a gong sound.
"It's time, let's go!" Uncle said
The door of the river god temple opened, Chen Yimu looked out, and saw that the side of the river god square was crowded with people.
Two boys came in through the side door, Lin Fusheng and his wife stepped forward and put the two children in the small sedan chair, while the people behind tied the boys and girls behind the sedan chair respectively.
"Get up!"
Two sedan chairs slowly walked out of the river temple and stopped in front of the temple gate.
Immediately, crackling firecrackers rang out.
A man with a grimace, dressed in a black robe, holding a fan, and carrying a red lantern, greeted him.
"This is the River Divine Messenger!" Lin Fusheng said.
I saw the river envoy come to the sedan chair, look left, look right, and nodded with satisfaction.
The envoy of the river god waved his hand, walked towards the square with a fan in his hand, and shouted: "Sacrifice to the boy envoy, worship the river god!" ”
The sound of firecrackers rang out again.
The two palanquins were lifted and followed behind the river envoy, walking slowly and leisurely through the square.
The river god envoy's steps were very funny, his expression was exaggerated, and he deliberately fell, causing the crowd in the square to roll forward and backward in amusement.
It can be seen that the man who plays the river god is extremely good at acting, and he knows what the audience wants to see.
Then, under the leadership of the river envoy, the sedan chair walked towards the wooden boat docked on the side.
