Chapter 141 Dragon Boat Festival
"My daughter-in-law is not old, she scolded me yesterday, until today, I was so angry that I cut her with a knife!"
As he spoke, the man reached out and took out a bloody human head from the sack and put it on the table, which frightened the shopkeeper and the men.
I saw that the man took out a kitchen knife from the sack again, loosened the bloodstained pants on his legs, and said, "Shopkeeper, let's talk about it!" β
At this time, the shopkeeper was so frightened that he was left trembling, and he could not speak.
The bold guy on the side said, "Big brother, you can talk about this well, but don't make a big fuss, if the matter of your daughter-in-law being killed by you is also known to everyone, then you have to resist your life!" Not worth it, not worth it! β
Seeing that the man was a little hesitant, the man continued, "Your life is not bought in exchange for salt, why don't you take advantage of the fact that no one knows and you haven't committed the crime yet, so you can run away quickly!" If you go far away, your life will be saved! β
Although the man hesitated, he refused to listen to the persuasion when he thought of the silver money that was pitted, holding the kitchen knife, the momentum was violent, and the posture was really like the desperate of the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he hid under the counter, and when the men saw this, they had to rush up to stop the man, so that they could persuade him, and it took a lot of words to persuade him.
In the end, the result of the negotiation was that the shopkeeper gave the man five hundred taels of silver, and put the head in a sack, and the man opened the door for him, and asked him to find a place to settle down before the curfew, and then go out of the city tomorrow.
Before the man left, the man hurriedly closed the door.
The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, I got into trouble with the government, I don't know how much it will cost, I am afraid of the evil anger on his face, I am afraid that he will cut someone with a knife in a hurry." β
The guys are also happy.
The big guy was talking as he wiped the blood away.
The more everyone thought about it that night, the more scared they became, and they didn't sleep until the fourth watch.
The sky is getting brighter.
Suddenly, I heard someone outside knocking at the door and shouting, "Shopkeeper, there is a human head hanging on your door, why don't you come out and see it!" β
These words frightened the shopkeeper and the men of the silver horn, and the whole store was so frightened that they hurriedly opened the door.
Everyone came out to take a look, and they were all surprised when they saw the head, "!! β
The guy pointed to the "human head" and exclaimed, "This, isn't this human head fake?!" β
Everyone directly took down the "human head" and poked it with a stick, and it was directly poked, not flesh and blood.
It turned out that the head was fake.
It's made of mud.
The hair on the top is real.
The outline is blurry, and the "face" and "neck" are smeared with pig blood.
With such a clumsy head, you can't fool the big guy during the day, but it's different at night, the light is weak, and it's easier to confuse the real with the fake.
The whole store was deceived, and it was too late to wake up.
He was frightened all night, and he was deceived of five hundred taels of silver.
It's too late to sue the official, and the other party doesn't know where to run.
Not only could the official uniform catch people, but he also had to take a lot of "travel expenses" from him.
The shopkeeper had to swallow this breath.
Take a long sigh!
This kills a thousand knives!

Ah Di asked Ah Sister in surprise, "Sister, how do you know??" β
Song Huan pointed to his face, "Analyze from his expression." β
"Expression analysis?" Ah Di wondered.
Song Huan nodded, "Have you seen his timid expression?" β
Ah Di nodded, "Is there any problem?" β
Song Huan said again, "You reminisce about memories." β
Ah Di bowed his head and tried to remember.
Song Huan saw that his brother still didn't react, so he said directly, "He used too much force." β
"??? β
Song Huan has watched so many TV series, the acting school, the traffic school and the real reaction of a person himself, not to mention reaching the point of mastery, but he can still distinguish one or two.
Song Huan said, "This person belongs to the old gang of the deception sect, there are two people in a group, there are four or five people in a group, and there are more than a dozen people, dozens of people. That man is a solitary crime, and he is obviously a veteran. β
"This deceptive method can only be used once in one place, and once it is used, it cannot be used again."
Ah Di was shocked when he heard this.
This is nothing strange!
Song Huan patted his brother, "It's okay, you can see the problem by observing more." Let's go, call them together to watch the dragon boat. β
Dragon boat rowing is a custom of the Dragon Boat Festival.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, every household will also paste "noon poems" on the door frame.
The so-called "noon poem" is written on paper, "May 5 noon book, all unsatisfactory will be eliminated" and so on, in order to express the meaning of exorcism and obscurity.
The people believed that as long as the noon poem was pasted, all unclean and unhealthy things in the house would be automatically eliminated.
At noon, each family will also grow incense at the door of their house, and at the same time, they will also light artillery battles to ward off evil spirits and avoid obscurity.
Of course, the indispensable part of the Dragon Boat Festival is to wrap zongzi, and the taste naturally follows the local taste.
On this day, there is also the custom of washing the hull of the dragon boat, where the boys each take a boiled egg with the shell to bathe in the pond or river, play in the water, and eat the egg.
As for the boys who are too young, their mothers or grandmothers wash them in a basin of water at home, which is considered to be the washing of the dragon boat.
The elders of the family usually make a kind of sachet called "cinnabar talisman" for the children in the family to wear on this day.
The specific shape of the sachet varies, there are square, diamond, round or oval, and they are mostly tied into a string of five-colored silk threads, which is delicate and lovely.
The sachet is usually filled with cinnabar, incense and other materials for hanging on children's bodies.
It is said that one is full of fragrance, and the other can drive away evil spirits and avoid pestilence.
While speaking, everyone has come to the intersection of Nanlu Creek and Chongyang Creek.
The building was built next to the river, and the bamboo raft at the water's edge had been cleaned up, and now it was a row of dragon boats from the past, and the young men on the dragon boats were ready to go, vowing to win the bid in one fell swoop.
Wang Dayu had already booked a private room, just in time to watch the dragon boat race.
Song Huan and the four of them went up to the private room, the sonorous gongs and drums had already sounded, and the people on the dragon boat were trying their best to paddle and fight for the first.
Clear water and culture collide, strength and passion contend, and the shouts on both sides of the strait come and go, full of excitement and passion.
Song Huan looked at the merchants who ran through the crowd, and really didn't miss any opportunity to make money!
Song Huan just turned his attention away for a while, and was attracted back by everyone's exclamations, it turned out that when he was about to reach the end, he temporarily took the first and second places ahead and began to behave as a demon.
Specifically, it's the second place demon.
In order to seize the first, they actually made the yin.
Ah Di didn't expect to do this kind of competition in a good game, so he asked directly.
Wang Dayu is playing handsome with a folding fan, and he looks accustomed to it, "Routine operation, just get used to it." β
Ah Di asked suspiciously, "Is the first prize big?" β
Wang Dayu thought for a while and nodded, "That's pretty much what it means." β
"Whoever wins, who can preside over the tea party the day after tomorrow, the old rule over the years."
Song Huan's expression was like this, it was a matter of interests, no wonder.
But that's too sloppy, right?
Synchronized with Song Huan's heart, there was also Adi's voice, but Song Huan was thinking about it in his heart, and Adi was asking.
Wang Dayu agreed, "It's not just sloppy." β
The tea merchants in Jian'an County, the tea party hosts no one obeys anyone.
It is indeed sloppy to say that they are solemn and solemn about the tea party, and it is indeed sloppy to say that they are sloppy.
For example, now, they put the tea party on a small dragon boat race, isn't it sloppy?
However, secretly, of course, their methods are also varied.
Before the dragon boat race, the members were sparse, and there were not a few who got sick.
And the team members lurking in the team may also be hired Jianghu people, and those Jianghu people with special skills are all showing their magic on the water at this time.
This scene will be staged once a year, and it is also one of the most anticipated "programs" by the people of Jian'an County, which is comparable to the (former) Spring Festival Gala that must be seen every year!
