Chapter 129: City God
February 21.
Today is the day of worship, and Jiang Yun is hiding at home.
In fact, she was quite curious about what God was like.
It's just that her father never told her, and he never dared to take her to worship the city god.
This is the most important day of the year, and it is prayed three times a year.
Every family has to worship God, and it's not just as simple as incense.
There should also be chicken, duck, fish, fruits and vegetables.
Anyway, as long as it's something valuable, Master Chenghuang likes it.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?"
"Girl, here is a wandering traveler, can you ask for a glass of water to drink."
Jiang Yun hesitated for a moment and opened the door.
A man wearing a hat and leading a cow appeared in front of him.
The wind and dust are like walkers who have been traveling for a long time.
"Big brother, where are you from?"
"Da Sui."
"Great Sui? Where is that? ”
Jiang Yun looked curious.
Li Ping'an smiled, "It's a far place." ”
Such a big girl is naturally very curious about the outside world, and Li Ping'an's kind face does not look like a bad person.
When even let him into the house to warm up, poured a bowl of water.
Li Ping'an said again: "Trouble, can you give my cow some drink, my cow is also thirsty." ”
The girl was a little confused.
Aren't all people who travel far and wide on horseback? Why ride a cow.
However, she had never been far away, and she had heard these words mentioned by others, so she didn't pay much attention to them.
The girls in the village don't have so many constraints.
If you are in the city, an unmarried girl can't talk to a strange man in her room at will.
After chatting a few words, Li Ping'an asked.
"What about the people in this village? I searched for many homes, but no one was there. ”
"Today is the day of worship, and they have all gone to honor Lord Chenghuang."
Li Ping'an suddenly said, "Then why don't you go?" ”
Jiang Yun blinked, "My father won't let me go." ”
"Why is that?"
"My father said that Master Chenghuang likes young women, and if he sees me, it will be troublesome to marry me."
Li Ping'an frowned, "Can Chenghuang still marry a wife?" ”
I've never heard of this before.
Most of the Chenghuang were local good people, or officials.
After his death, he was worshiped by people in a temple and made a golden body.
If you get the approval of the imperial court, you can enjoy the incense.
Bless the safety of the party.
A few years ago, Jiang Yun's cousin was taken captive by Master Chenghuang and made a concubine.
Jiang Yun hadn't seen her since.
I heard that she was dead.
Not all countries have a system that, although imperfect, is sound enough, like the Great Sui.
The king overlooks the world, and the iron rider walks through thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.
The three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have provided them with a large number of talents.
Outside of the Great Sui, there is more chaos.
A village like this in a ravine, a place where birds don't when they climb two mountains away from the county government.
No one will remember,
And the one who is here is the local Chenghuang Lord.
Jiang Yun retracted his thoughts, squatted there and continued to weave the small bamboo basket
One for three cents can sell up to seven or eight a day.
If you can catch the market, you will be able to sell more.
It's just that even so, life is still not easy.
Every year, I have to save money to make offerings to Lord Chenghuang.
There are also taxes to be paid.
After a while, Jiang Yun's father, Jiang Laohan, returned.
When I saw a stranger in the room, I was stunned for a moment.
After hearing that Li Ping'an was a traveler, he asked his daughter to take out the tea foam at home.
The water that has been brewed is not as good as the water that has not been brewed.
However, Li Ping'an is not a picky person.
A small quilt is covered under the bridge hole, and tears are wiped from the small quilt.
It doesn't matter if you wipe your tears, you can say yes, yes, yes when you meet someone
Jiang Yun found that Jiang Laohan had taken back all the things that were dedicated to Master Chenghuang, and said curiously.
"Dad, why didn't the things be given to Master Chenghuang?"
Jiang Laohan took a big sip of tea, "Master Chenghuang is not here today, let's go over tomorrow." ”
At dinner in the evening, Jiang Laohan deliberately made a few more wowotou and boiled a pot of rice and noodle porridge.
It's just that this little thing is not enough for Li Ping'an to even plug his teeth.
The father and daughter of the Jiang family watched in surprise as Li Ping'an finished eating the last bowl of porridge in the pot and stuffed the remaining half of the nest into his mouth.
Pickle pimples, also eaten clean.
Father and daughter had an idea at the same time.
It's fucking edible!
Li Ping'an finished wiping his mouth.
Knowing that the other party's family is in difficulty, it is not in vain.
gave the last two coins of silver in his pocket to Jiang Laohan.
Jiang Laohan was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly shouted that this could not be done!
Two dollars of silver is worth more than two months of food for a family in this kind of village.
Li Ping'an said: "After walking for so many days, I am also tired.
If you want to stay here for a day or two, these are considered accommodation fees. ”
The two sides tore apart for a while, and Jiang Laohan finally accepted the money.
............
In the dead of night, there was only one or two barking dogs in the village.
Li Ping'an sat in the courtyard, as if he was napping and resting.
The snort is even, and it seems to be very comfortable.
He held a wine gourd in his hand, but he didn't drink it.
This is the sword-raising gourd given to him by the old Taoist of Longhu Mountain.
In addition to warming the flying sword, it can also enhance the body.
Li Ping'an put his flying sword drizzle into it.
After a few days, I really felt the change in the drizzle of flying swords.
Not only that, but even itself has been greatly improved.
From time to time, a wisp of sword intent flashed in his mind.
Gu Xizhou once said that Li Ping'an's body was too vigorous with qi and blood, and it was also mixed with various forces.
Not to mention ordinary people, even the body of the lower third-grade monk may not be able to support it, and he would have exploded and died a long time ago.
He has been able to live until now thanks to the strong physique of the Heavenly Punishment Man.
As well as the golden scarf, Tianmen, Changjing, Xuanquan, Tiangu, mud pill, the six secrets of the human body are vigorous.
can make Li Ping'an bear more strength and hide it in his body.
At this time, Jiang Yun walked out.
"It's cold outside, be careful of the wind chill."
Li Ping'an said: "It's okay, I'm used to it." ”
"My father said, Ming'er Chenghuang is married, and he wants to hold a big banquet, do you want to go and see it together?"
"Go, why don't you go if you have something to eat."
Li Ping'an did not hesitate.
