The Guandi temple fair is a Yonghui held by Guan Yu, a famous general during the Three Kingdoms. Guan Yu, the word cloud chief, the [Han] general, the deification of Houbo Buddhism, respected as Guan Gong and Emperor Guan, listed as one of the gods of Jialan; Taoism is also honorifically called

"The Great Emperor of the Three Realms of Demon Suppression, Shenwei Yuanzhen Tianzun, Guan Shengdi Jun", abbreviation

"Emperor Guan Sheng". Various places have successively built a variety of temples such as Wang Temple, Guandi Temple, Lao Ye Temple, Guan Temple, Wu Temple, etc., and the Guandi Temple Fair is held on the 13th day of May in the summer calendar.

Folklore has it that this day is the day when the monster that created the drought [Drought Fish] passed by, because during the ceremony of Emperor Guan, he prayed for his appearance, drove away evil spirits and avoided disasters, and rained down to relieve agricultural worries.

Jingzhou as the hometown of Guan Yu of the [Martial Saint], there are many imperial temples, the White Horse Temple of the West Step Bridge outside Di'an Gate and the temple on the right side of the Moon City of Zhengyangmen, the Spring and Autumn Festival.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, the inner gate of Zhengyang is opened, and the people of the inner city pay homage; After midnight, the west gate is opened, and the people outside the city pay their respects, and the incense is very prosperous.

The temple is strict, Zhu Ying is covered with yellow, the golden niche of the threshold, and the imperial book of the Holy Ancestor is enshrined

"Loyalty" plaque, there is a stele written by Dong Wenminshu Jiao Taishi under the west house, and it is passed down as two uniques. The number of firecrackers in the ceremony is no different from that of the New Year, which shows the pomp and circumstance of the time.

At this time, it was densely populated and trade was extremely prosperous. Merchants from all provinces built the Guandi Temple in the west of the city, the place where the main guest discussed the rules and regulations, the building was magnificent, and it was called the guild hall.

Before every temple fair, the animals have been cut to perform the drama, the lanterns are ten thousand, and the prayers are respectful. Moreover, the market is also a sacrifice, the drums are bursting, and the streets and alleys are heard.

It can be seen that it was also a great time at that time. Chen Xiaocheng was holding a grilled fish in one hand and a sugar gourd in the other, chewing candy in his mouth, and he was very happy to eat.

Ah Ruo was also conquered by a lot of delicacies, and his small mouth was all about food, Cao Ang was holding a lot of all kinds of fresh gadgets that the two of them bought, and Zhao Zili was full of black lines Sure enough, women in any world are shopaholics, or Dolgon.

"Lord Wang, what's the matter with Nanyou's body?" Dolgon turned his head, and he also had half a roast chicken in his mouth, and his two cheeks were bulging, and he couldn't speak.

The corners of Zhao Zili's mouth twitched, he forgot that this was the first time that this product had gone far away, and his curiosity about the outside world was no different from that of a child.

A group of people walked through the periphery of the Guandi Temple to the place of the temple fair, just entered the venue, and what greeted them was a dazzling light.

Colorful, dotted with stars, they are like stars in the sky, densely lit into pieces of lanterns, and Haining's lanterns in general, and many to home are also written on the riddles, see Haining's riddles have received a lot of people's love.

Facing them in the temple was a path paved with stone bricks. The path stretched out to a huge arch that glowed, not so much a door, but a large spring lamp that glowed throughout.

It lay horizontally at one end of the bridge, almost three meters high and three meters wide, and it was not a problem for five or six people to pass between it side by side.

On both sides of the road, the low bushes on the right side are coiled with long strings of lights, emitting a pink light, which looks like small pink flowers blooming from the bushes from a distance.

On the left, there is a large group of rabbit lanterns, they are in groups of three, two in a group, as if they are discussing something important.

There are two little rabbits with their hind legs straight, with their two front paws grasp the green leaves of a radish lantern, with the strength of milk is pulling out the radil; Again, the rabbit was hiding behind a pile of bushes, as if playing hide-and-seek, for fear that people would see it.

This group of rabbits is really naughty and joyful, and people don't want to leave when they look at it. As I walked, I entered a lawn.

The lawn is soft, and when you step on it, you will sink down, just like walking on cotton, which is very comfortable. On the lawn, there are many lanterns, dancing jellyfish, gently fluttering seaweed, and corals of various shapes, making people feel as if they are in a blue ocean.

This strong blue whale is strong, and the lines on its body are not only tortuous, but also graceful, and the water jets it spouts rise brightly into the sky, a sea of different compositions.

"Chestnuts are lantern riddles, the same as Haining." Chen Xiaocheng was also very happy, the temple fair was really interesting, and when he walked to a stall, the boss was very enthusiastic.

"A few people are new to the temple fair at first glance, just take a look, and you can get a lantern by answering a question."

"What about answering all the questions?" The boss was stunned for a moment, obviously asked by Chen Xiaocheng, and quickly reacted, it seemed that the person in front of him was a big lady, so he said: "If all the answers are correct, the treasure of this store [Golden Scissors] is yours, which is handed down from my ancestors." In fact, he collected this scissors from a village, although it was gold, but the purity was too low, so he took it out as a prize.

Zhao Zili glanced at it, and was stunned for a moment, and Bai's voice also sounded: "Xiao Zhao, feel it, this scissors are an artifact, although it has been sealed, it is absolutely completely preserved." "Since the last time he encountered the remnants of the [King in Yellow], Bai realized that there were still many crises in this world, which Zhao Zili couldn't handle, so he stayed, but he wouldn't have appeared without encountering an opponent of the [King in Yellow].

"That's right, if I'm looking at it right, it should be [Golden Jiao Scissors], one of the magic weapons of the legendary [Sanxiao Niangniang], which may be left over from that war." As the former librarian of the earth, he knows a lot about the myths of the earth, and he knows these magic weapons well.

Seeing such an artifact, Zhao Zili was silent, so he looked at the riddles on the lanterns, although it was a little difficult, but fortunately it could be solved: "Okay, then it's a word." The boss was not embarrassed, so he took out ten lanterns and said, "Just ten, all the answers are right, this [Golden Scissors] is yours." After all, it was an object made of gold, and it attracted many people to stop and watch for a while, Chen Xiaocheng looked at Zhao Zili expectantly, and the latter nodded to indicate that she had no problem.

"Wearing a festival hat and wearing festival clothes, every year in February and March, unearthed to go to the banquet - bamboo shoots"

"True"

"The silver armor around the body is dazzling, the whole body is cold, there are wings and you can't fly, and you have no feet to travel all over the world. - Fish"

"Correct answer" answers two questions in a row, and the onlookers do not feel impressed.

"This young man is so clever that he might be able to answer all the questions correctly."

"No, this smart force has a fight with Guan Ling'er, the daughter of the city lord." As Zhao Zili continued to ask questions, he answered nine questions in a blink of an eye, and the boss was not angry, this is a fair deal, and this wave down, his lamps have also been sold a lot, increasing a lot of popularity, and it is still profitable.

"Childe is really smart, if you answer this last course correctly, this golden scissors is yours." Zhao Zili looked at the last lantern, which was a pair of uplink: people have passed the Big Buddha Temple, and the Temple Buddha has been bigger.

"It's not a lantern riddle, you're fooling." Dorgon wasn't happy, it wasn't a riddle.

"This son forgive me, this is set by the city lord, every shop has this couplet at the end, and the villain doesn't know why."

"It doesn't matter." Zhao Zili didn't care too much, whether it was a couplet or a lantern riddle, it was nothing to him, a person with hundreds of thousands of books in his head.

Pick up the pen and write: Monk tour Yunyin Temple, temple hidden cloud wandering monk. The Great Zhou advocates Buddhism, although Zhao Zili has other answers, but at present, this is the most suitable link.

"Good, good, good, Childe is really knowledgeable, I admire it until, you have taken this golden scissors." The store is overjoyed, with this, you can also exchange it for a large reward in the city lord's mansion, not only to send the [Golden Jiao Scissors], but also to give no one a lantern.

Chen Xiaocheng was very happy with the rabbit lantern, Ah Ruo and Cao Ang took the moon and the sun respectively, and even Dolgon took a tiger lantern, and the group happily continued to visit the temple fair.

The boss just now came to the City Lord's Mansion with Xialian and presented Xialian to Guan Changling.

"You're saying it was written by a few strangers." Guan Changling was very surprised, this couplet was about a secret treasure of Buddhism, and he didn't pay attention to it after thinking about it for a long time, so he searched for the answer among the people.

"Lord Hui, exactly, it is three men and two women, not very old but very smart, and the grass people observe that these people do not seem to be weak." Guan Changling fell into deep thought, these people are probably the children of a big family who came out to train, after the changes in heaven and earth, many big families have come out to take chances.

"Alright, you go down and claim the reward."

"Father, but the treasure has progressed." At this time, a sick girl walked in with the support of her subordinates, it was Guan Ling'er, she was frail and sickly since she was a child, but she was very smart, and she solved many troublesome problems in Jingzhou, otherwise how could Guan Changling, a martial idiot, govern Jingzhou so well.

Not long ago, Guan Changling obtained a lotus platform that was said to contain an elixir that could cure all diseases, and after several studies, he learned that the outer layer was sealed, and it took a literati who practiced both Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism to crack it, so he prepared a Confucian couplet containing Buddhism.

"Yes, your couplet has been matched, and it's perfect." Guan Ling'er took the answer and looked at it, nodded frequently, and said: "This person's literary and Buddhist studies are definitely not low, my father can invite him over, but it needs to be noted that this person must be unruly, and the people sent there must not put up a fight, otherwise it is easy to steal chickens and rice." ”

"Don't worry, it's about whether your body can recover, and my father is naturally careless, and someone will call Xi Jin." Guan Changling could not understand the importance of this matter, and then called one of his most trusted subordinates, Xi Jin Xi Jin, nicknamed [Grace and Grace], although the young man is ambitious, but he is humble and polite, and his martial arts have long been very high.

But only when doing funerals, relatives need to wear linen and filial piety, which also confirms that his strong encounter will die, and the realm of [practicing gods and returning to the void] is at its peak.

Xi Jin got the order and rushed to the Guandi Temple non-stop.
