Chapter 126 Preparing for the Sacrifice
"When the time comes, I will definitely take you to see it. Don't worry, no one will forget you. I've been thinking about one thing." Xinxin turned around while speaking, and turned her side to Yanyan. .

Yanyan looked at Xinxin's watery eyes and asked curiously: "What are you thinking about? Why are you in love? You seem to have a lot lower IQ. What are you thinking?"

Xinxin stared at Yanyan and said, "Am I really in love? Besides, Zhao Long said today that I smell good, haha."

Yanyan smiled and said: "I don't know if you are in love or not. Zhao Long smelled the fragrance on your body. Did you hug each other, haha?"

"Yes, I was in his arms. He said that my body has a kind of body fragrance. By the way, I'm telling you a little secret. At that time, my body suddenly felt numb. I don't know what's wrong." Xinxin Said shyly.

Yanyan on the side didn't speak, but turned around and looked up, and said: "Oh, you, you, be careful to be eaten by Zhao Long, your body is numb, you are in trouble, if you are kissed by Zhao Long, how can you eat it?" It’s not about throwing yourself in the arms, hahaha”

The two chatted with you and her without playing. The next morning, Zhao Long got up early. After getting up, Zhao Long hurriedly brought out the firecrackers, fruits, and candies bought yesterday. Zhao Long He said to his mother who was cooking: "Mom, this is something I bought yesterday for the sacrifice. Did the village chief say anything about the sacrifice? Did you change the time or something?"

While adding firewood to the ground pot, Zhao Long's mother said, "The village chief, when you were sleeping last night, I went to close the door and met the village chief, and he said on purpose that today is the best day. After you get up today and have a meal, you can go directly to sacrifice before seven o'clock, this time is the most auspicious."

After hearing this, Zhao Long took out his mobile phone and checked that the time was 06:30. Zhao Long said: "There is still some time, so I will hurry to eat now. We will go there at [-]:[-] and put things in order. It all takes time.”

Zhao Long and his mother quickly started eating. At around 06:30, after the two had finished eating, Zhao Long and his mother walked towards the east road with a big bag of things.

As long as there is a little major event in the village, it can be said that the villagers know it faster than calling on the mobile phone. The village is not big, and the information does not need to be spread. , the sound can be transmitted directly from the east end of the village to the ears of the last family in the west end of the village.

At this time, Zhao Long and his mother had just brought out the things, and Tingting "greeted" them up with her little friend before they had walked a few steps. In addition, today is a holiday, and all the children in the village knew that Zhao Long was going to Sacrifice means that after the land master and land woman "eat well", they can eat the leftovers.

When Zhao Long was young, every year on the night of the full moon in August and fifteenth, at that time, not only his grandfather was still alive, but also his grandmother was still alive. At that time, at the dinner table at home On the night of the full moon in August and fifteenth, after the family had a good meal together, grandma would tell Zhao Long to kowtow to the moon before eating moon cakes, and let Yuelao eat first, and after Yuelao ate, wait for Zhaolong to grow up In the future, you can marry a good wife, and you can eat moon cakes only after you kowtow to the moon.

The world has changed, things have changed, and now Zhao Long has grown up, and his grandparents have passed away one after another. Whenever there is a sacrifice, or when the night comes, as long as he sees the full moon, Zhao Long will think of himself What my grandparents said to me, although I know that it is a kind of spiritual sustenance from my grandparents, and it is impossible to talk about the old age, but no matter what, Zhao Long will still face it from the bottom of his heart. The moon bows deeply.He bowed for nothing else, only for his dearest relatives...

Zhao Long was walking towards the east of the village with his things at this time, and a large number of children in the village followed behind and around him. If there is something in the village that needs to be sacrificed, the sacrifice is the only food in the village that children can eat. The best opportunity for good things. However, apart from Zhao Long's sacrifice, the most common sacrifices in the village are to earn more cornmeal steamed buns, and add some simple pickles at home.

But now, since Zhao Long came back to sacrifice once, everyone has a new understanding of the things on the sacrifice table. The candies or fruits that are not necessarily available even during the New Year, when Zhao Long sacrifices, they are more It's good to eat during the Chinese New Year, and you can eat a lot of delicious food.

Zhao Long took all the children of the village to the road to the east of the village in a "mighty" way. After arriving at the road to the east, the people in the village were basically all there, as if something big happened and the whole village was alarmed, but , For sacrifices, it is one of the biggest things in the village.

When the villagers saw Zhao Long approaching, they quickly gave way to the village head. Zhao Long came to the village head, and the village head said: "Xiaolong, come, bring everything. It's almost time, and this table is ready. Let’s start now.”

Zhao Long nodded, and quickly put the things he bought on the table with his mother. There is a rule in the village that no matter whose family is offering sacrifices, only the immediate relatives can put the sacrifices on the table. Each corner has a special small hole, which is specially used to insert incense into each corner.

At this time, the four corners are lit by the village chief who has already prepared the incense sticks and inserted on the four corners, which respectively represent the Heavenly King of the East, the Heavenly King of Growth in the South, the King of Guangmu in the West and the King of Duowen in the North.In Zhaolong Village, it is commonly known as "Sifang Gods and Buddhas" and the village head also directly inserts three sticks of incense into the soil, which is a direct sacrifice to the land lord and land woman.

After all the preparations were done, Zhao Long and his mother also prepared the offerings, a lot of candy and various fruits, and the whole table was full.

Zhao Long took out the firecrackers and gave them to his uncle, saying: "Master, you are the boss of the family, you should light the firecrackers yourself, I will give the firecrackers to you now."

Uncle Zhao Long took the firecrackers from Zhao Long's hand, then walked aside, set the firecrackers away, and waited for the village chief to say a word before lighting them up.

After Zhao Long got everything ready, the village head looked at his watch and there was still some time, so he signaled the villagers to be quiet first, and said, "Today is a big day for our village, and we, Zhao Long, are going to build a building for the village. This sacrifice is to worship the gods and Buddhas of the four directions, as well as the land master and land woman. I hope that our village will be more prosperous in the future and have a bumper harvest every year!"
