Chapter 36: Exorcism
The public security county government had another day off on the Shangyuan Festival, but Jiang Wan was not happy at all.
Since going to Liu Jingzhou's banquet on the Spring Festival, the people around him seem to be pointing at him more.
And when Jiang Wan looked at it intently, everyone was fine.
Another change is that there are so few jobs left.
"Either you're going to send me on a harder errand, or you're going to send me back to Lingling's hometown?"
Jiang Wan didn't accept these two possibilities very much, and now Shuzuo only needs to copy official documents in this position, and the rest of the time he watches the birds and flowers and sits by the door to watch the people sell, which is very leisurely.
Although Lingling is the hometown, it is quite troublesome to do things, and you have to welcome the sycophants when you go in and out, but you can't stand this before you come to the public security.
And if you get promoted...... Jiang Wan remembered the name Zhuge Liang, and pain crept up on his handsome face.
It is said that the amount of transcription of the three scribes in Jiang Wan's public house for a day is only the office volume of the military general, and he went to his side......
sighed again, but the holiday of Shangyuan Festival still has to be watched.
It is said that Xu Du or Luoyang Chang'an and others have the habit of putting up lanterns today, and all the initial decisions in Gong'an County do not have these, but there are a few hawkers who have made their own miserable white paper lamps, on which the crooked painting of the gods and Yu Lei two fierce door gods.
Jiang Wan walked over without squinting, he wanted to see the exorcist.
The platform had already been set up in front of the county government, and the people around him were densely surrounded by water, Jiang Wan relied on his eight-foot figure to have a good vision, squeezed a place with a good view, and laughed out loud when he looked at it.
He saw that Ma Youchang, who was talking with him at the banquet, was wearing a crooked hat, and was talking to Zhuge Liang, who was three points more handsome than himself, with a bitter face.
As time passed, more and more people gathered here, and even the rooftops were full of people, all waiting for it, and there was no open space.
Good thing it came early!
Jiang Wan was very happy.
As the sun officially disappeared behind the mountain, the bonfire torches around the platform were also lit, and for a while, the surroundings were as bright as day, and the people were solemn.
Jiang Wan saw that Ma Youchang was holding back his strength, and his voice was lengthened, and he shouted:
"Nephew, please chase away the plague-"
Dozens of men and women solemnly took the stage, wearing various masks, and stepping barefoot on tiptoe.
One of them, a tall bronze grimace, shouted, and the others sang along:
“…… A is a food evildoer, the moon stomach eats the tiger, the male eats the charm, Teng Jian eats ominous, the food is to blame, and Birch eats dreams! ”
"Qiang Liang and Zu Ming eat phosphorus and parasitism together, and they follow the concept of food, and they are wrong to fast, and they are poor and strange, and Tenggen eats Gu together! Whoever makes the twelve gods ......"
The surrounding people also sang along, and Jiang Wan also sang softly with a beat.
This is the most familiar exorcism of the people of the Han Dynasty, singing this is in the hope of inviting the twelve divine beasts such as Jia Zuoxiong Bo Teng Jian Boqi to eat the twelve plagues respectively.
After singing this twice, several people wearing the masks of the twelve divine beasts on the stage were also chasing after the other ghost-faced masks, and finally expelled all the people with the plague ghost faces to the audience, and the crowd also erupted in cheers.
After the epidemic was over, some men and women wearing masks climbed up on the stage again, still led by bronze ghost faces, and this time changed a piece of singing:
“…… went to carry Liu Jun angry, and the red cliff was full of smoke and smoke...... Then the country was settled, and the Han family inherited the past forever......"
"Inzi is too protective of anger, the good god protects my Jiangyuan, Jingzhou is a Qingtai, and the Son of Heaven is Qu Riverside...... Wan sexy He Taishou, straight to the year before last. ”
The people didn't understand it, but they could hear that Liu Jingzhou had won the battle before, so that everyone was protected from the invasion of Cao thieves.
So many people also hummed along.
In front of the county government, Kong Ming and Guan Yu were standing together and looking at the expulsion, Guan Yu pinched his beard and said softly:
"I didn't expect the third brother to have such skills."
"The three generals are the best candidates." Kong Ming Dao.
The two looked at Zhang Fei wearing a bronze ghost face on the stage, and they could see that Zhang Fei was also very excited.
"Can you just send Zilong to protect the eldest brother?" After hesitating, Guan Yu still asked this question.
"Marquis Sun is a sincere friend, and General Guan can rest assured." Kong Ming explains:
"Moreover, General Zilong's 'variegated horse righteousness' combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of the white horse righteousness, coming and going like the wind, and the lord will definitely not worry about his life."
"And ......" may not feel good to say so, but Kong Ming still said:
Moreover, Zhou Gongjin planned Jing Yi with a sick body, but he was jealous of his talents. How can such a desperate plan be accomplished? ”
There are still some hidden words that are not said, that is, in Kong Ming's opinion, the moment he received Lu Su's secret letter, Zhou Gongjin's plan was already impossible to succeed.
Despite the talent and planning of the governor of Zhou, Sun Quan is undecided, lacking the ambition of a ruthless hero like Sun Ce.
Thinking of Sun Ce, as well as Lu Su, who died of illness at the age of forty, and Zhou Yu, whose life span had entered the countdown, Kong Ming sighed.
In this place in Jiangdong, are all talents short-lived?
"There is one more matter for General Guan to pay attention to." Kong Ming said softly: "Mrs. Sun has just arrived, and she will definitely be flying high. ”
Kong Ming is already planning the next thing:
"To deter Mrs. Sun, I also asked General Guan and General Zhang to plan one or two, so that the lord's mansion can be clean."
"Mrs. Sister-in-law, this ......" Guan Yu hesitated, this is not appropriate, right?
"The Battle of Xiangfan, Sun Hou backstabbed." Kong Ming suddenly said something irrelevant:
"In the past ten years, Sun Hou sat and watched the lord take Jing Yi and Hanzhong, until General Guan fought Xiangfan, and Sun Hou made a backstab."
Speaking of this, Guan Yu's face was very ugly, he had no regrets about dying at the hands of heroes, but he was defeated by such a villain......
"After taking Xiangfan, in the words of the auspicious light curtain, it is like putting a knife between the neck of Cao thief."
"But this knife is also on Sun Hou's neck, and this behavior caused the alliance to break."
"From this point of view, it seems that Sun Hou is quite afraid of the lord."
"Therefore, although General Guan is free to act, as long as he does not exceed the courtesy."
Recently, after studying the discourse of the light curtain, Kong Ming also has a new insight into the word contradiction, and he also has insight into Sun Quan's situation.
Even if Zhou Yu was Sun Ce's deathbed, Sun Hou did not have full authority to believe in Zhou Yu and was born in Jianghuai, but Sun Hou acted in a way that was neither biased towards the Jianghuai faction nor completely biased towards the Jiangdong faction.
Sun Hou, it seems that everyone believes it, and no one believes it.
For Sun Hou, Sun Shangxiang is just a chess piece that can be summoned and waved away.
Perhaps, there is also a meaning that she wants to monitor the inside of the public security county through her?
On the stage, Zhang Feiqi's words have been changed to the third paragraph:
“…… The ghosts of the old years were expelled from the territory of other rivers. The cattle and sheep are full, and the grain and wheat are like Tianzhu Mountain. Brother for brother, sister-in-law connected. ”
"Men and women are respected, and generations of fathers and sons are united...... The sons and daughters are in unison, wishing Peng Zu the same year. ”
This time, Jiang Wan cheered and sang along with the people, trying to let the gods and ghosts hear their best wishes for the new year.
In the meantime, some people also sobbed quietly, Ah Lang and Daddy... Or may you be able to rest in peace?
Looking at the people with bright firelight on their faces, Kong Ming suddenly had an interesting question in his heart:
"Sun Hou...... Do you know about the injuries of the Governor of Zhou? ”
