The safety and comfort of traveling through farming

Chapter 121

The main venue of the "Blessing Ceremony" is located in the front yard of Rong's Ancestral Hall. With the active participation of the villagers, the preparatory work was successfully completed in two days.

On the afternoon of the sixth day of the first winter month, monks from Gaotang Temple arrived at Rongshu Village, accompanied by three statues of Vairocana Buddha, Sakyamuni Buddha and Amitabha Buddha.

The monks arranged a total of seven altars inside and outside according to the orientation, and invited three Buddha statues to the inner altar.The inner altar is the center of the water and land ashram. Four square tables are placed in front of it, on which are placed copper chimes, bucket drums, cymbals, hand bells and ritual instruments, and ten water and land portraits are hung on both sides to represent you. Bodhisattvas, gods of merit, and banners are placed under the portraits, representing saints.

After some arrangement, the empty courtyard transformed gorgeously and became solemn and solemn.

After the small workshop got off work that day, everyone said they would attend the opening ceremony tomorrow morning.

"Daughter-in-law, let's go too!" Fu Shi encouraged He Tao.Having been together for two years, Fu Shi is very clear about He Tao's personality, and he will not go out unless he has to, especially in winter, and he can't wait to eat, drink, sleep, and sleep in the kang room.Originally, he thought it would take a lot of talking to persuade He Tao, but who knew that as soon as he talked about He Tao, he agreed in a hurry.

"Okay!"

Although she said that ghosts do not exist, she is not afraid, she is not afraid, but the coincidence of the four lives, she couldn't help but not believe and not be afraid!

"What time does the altar open?"

"Third watch."

"...It's better to let ghosts haunt me!"

However, He Tao's laziness was eventually defeated by the timid Pomegranate.

On the seventh day of the first winter month, at half past two, He Tao and Fu Shi went out tremblingly carrying lanterns.

As the saying goes, it's midnight, and now it's not even midnight, and it's pitch black in all directions, and the light from the lanterns has no penetrating power, and can only illuminate a few inches around them.

He Tao vaguely felt that there were people in front and behind the two of them, and it seemed that they could still hear footsteps of varying severity. !
Suddenly hearing "He~Tao~", He Tao was so frightened that he stuffed himself into Fu Shi's arms, hugged his waist with hands and feet, and screamed around him like a koala: "Ghost! what!"

"Daughter-in-law, don't be afraid, it's that who!" Fu Shi pulled her out of his arms, pointed to the dark back and said, "Look, it's that who..."

Fu Shi knew all the women who worked in the wasteland, but the names and faces didn't match up, especially the new arrivals this year.

"Who?! Who is that?!" He Tao was a little mad.Nima, this kind of half-talking is more scary, okay? !
"A Tao, you are too timid! It's me, Xu Qiniang!" Xu Qiniang took Lin Qiu's hand and walked into the lighting range of the lantern.

Seeing that it was a real person, He Tao was relieved, knowing that the ghost she saw was other villagers who smeared and went to the dojo.She complained: "Why don't you say to light a lamp, it's scary!"

"I've walked the roads in the village thousands of times. It's okay to close your eyes. Why waste candles!" Xu Qiniang laughed and said, "I thought you were so brave. You're not afraid of ghosts. Scared, hahaha..."

"Have you ever heard that people scare people, scare people to death?!" He Tao was afraid of his chest with lingering fear: "Why are there just the two of you, where are the family members?"

"I walked halfway and realized that I forgot to bring the offerings. I turned back to get them, and the others passed by first..."

"You still have to bring your own offerings?"

"Didn't Aqiu and elder brother discover Goddess Luo? He crushed her when he didn't know whether she was dead or alive! I was worried that Goddess Luo would have resentment, so I prepared some things and took them to worship at night. Burn it to her so that you don't have to hate Aqiu." Xu Qiniang showed He Tao the things she used to bribe Mistress Luo, which was a set of dark blue paper clothes and a paper boy.

She remembered that He Youtian was also at the scene of the incident that day, and she said to He Tao: "You have to tell your second brother and uncle to prepare something for him, so as not to be entangled. He was alone that day. I have been with Goddess Luo for a long time."

He Youtian himself is a big villain, who disappeared for so long without any reason, but his leg that has been lame for several years is fine after he comes back!Will he still be afraid of ghosts? !I guess ghosts are afraid of being plotted by him, right?

He Tao answered absently: "Oh."

On the first day of the monastery, the altar was purified at the third watch, the boundary was formed at the fourth watch, and saints, gods, and monks were called in at the fifth watch. Four eminent monks presided over the dharma assembly in the inner altar, and the remaining monks took charge of the six outer altars and chanted scriptures together.

Buddhism is the state religion of Daqi, eight out of ten Daqi people are believers, and the remaining two, one is dubious, and the other prefers to believe what is there or not.

Naturally, there were many believers in Banyan Village.It is said that the more critical the time is, the more it can test faith. Four lives were lost in Rongshu Village, and it was the time when everyone was in danger and waiting for redemption. Therefore, every villager with the ability to move came, and more than 1000 people packed the The dojo is surrounded by water.Because noise is strictly prohibited inside and outside the dojo, the scene was completely silent and silent.Even the Wu family, Xie family and others, who were usually sour and mean to a certain extent, still had a low-browed and pleasing look at this time, standing quietly in the crowd, piously putting their fingers together to welcome the coming of the gods and Buddhas, closing their eyes, Meditate on scriptures you know well.

He Tao and the others were the last to arrive, and could only stand on the outermost floor of the team.

Because there is a kang room at home, she doesn't go out often. He Tao didn't make a coat for herself to resist the cold at all. She put on two layers of jacket before going out today.She didn't feel cold when she was walking all the time, but she regretted it when she stopped and stood quietly - she should have worn three pieces!
Should have come earlier, someone standing in the middle of the crowd will block the wind!
My hands are so cold, I'm about to freeze, I should wear gloves!
She thought to herself, if there are gods and Buddhas, they must all be broad-minded people who don't care about appearances. Sincerity leads to spirit!So, she put her hands in her sleeves and gathered them with peace of mind, staring blankly at the crowded crowd in front of her.

Hearing the sound of chanting scriptures and the regular sound of wooden fish coming from the dojo, this bastard actually just fell asleep standing up!
However, the others, including Fu Shi who was standing next to him, had their eyes closed, and no one noticed.

Little by little, her head fell asleep so sweetly.

It was severe winter, and it was a foggy morning, so He Tao woke up from the cold in less than half an hour.She opened her eyes and looked around blankly. It took a while to realize that she was here to participate in the dojo!
She continued her sincerity and spirit, standing crookedly with her hands clasped.

After a while, she found that she started to have a runny nose. She sniffed her nose hard and sucked back the snot that was about to flow into the person, saving her little hands from taking out the handkerchief and getting cold. self-satisfaction.

After a while, the snot flowed out again, this time more, and it was useless for her to sniff.

But my hands are so cold, I really don’t want to take them out~~
She turned her head to look to the left, but no one paid attention to her, and looked to the right, but no one paid attention to her, so she raised her hands wretchedly, and wiped her nose with her cuffs.

Then, after a while, the snot came out again!

Nima!

She didn't even look at it this time, and raised her hand to wipe it with her cuff again. As a result, she covered the snot all over her face—it wasn't dry before!
She was disgusted by herself.

It is said that parents are the first teachers of children. Will Dongzhi and Dongye become like this in the future?

He Tao YY showed two pink and jade dolls wiping their noses with their sleeves and then covering their faces, it's chilling!What a waste of being a mother!
Take it as a warning, you must take it as a warning!
"I have to find water to wash quickly." She quietly left the crowd of onlookers.

There is a public well not far from the ancestral hall. People who don’t have a well at home come here to carry water.At this time, the sky was getting dark, and He Tao didn't bother Fu Shi to light a candle for her, and walked towards the well by herself.

When she first arrived at the well, she saw two people in the nearby bamboo forest - and it was a man and a woman!
He Tao's soul of gossip is boiling, there is adultery!

Why do you say there is adultery?If it's a normal couple, where can't they talk, must they choose this place?

Daqi has strict etiquette. Although the so-called great defense of men and women has been discounted in the countryside, it is not a big deal for men and women to be alone, but at a different time and a different place, for example, everyone is worshiping Buddha at this time, such as here , a remote small bamboo forest, if someone like this is caught, even if he didn't do anything, it would be the same as doing something!
These two are simply warriors fighting against the rules of ethics!

Curiosity killed the cat!Don't be curious, don't look, turn around, go back and continue worshiping Buddha!What He Tao muttered was the same thing, but her body did the opposite without authorization. She squatted down and hid behind the well platform.If it wasn't for the fear that people would find out that there would be a "murder to silence" or "beat up" in the end, she would have gone to the bamboo forest to see it.

A man and a woman faced He Tao sideways, and because of the light, they were separated by a certain distance, and she couldn't see their faces clearly at all.

However, He Tao guessed that the girl should be very pretty.

At this time, both men and women wear thick and heavy cotton-padded clothes and trousers. It is not easy to distinguish between men and women without looking at their faces and hairstyles.But this woman is wearing a jacket and a long skirt. If she wants grace but not warmth, she must love beauty to a certain level!
And the man and the woman also took the same route, wearing light-colored robes, they don't look like farmers who plan food in the field?

Ok?This is really strange!

Is it from outside the village?

It is true that people from nearby villages heard that Rongshu Village was about to open a dojo, and they took the initiative to participate by pooling their head money.However, the people from other villages are not too different from the people from Rongshu Village!
Is it...

He Tao covered his mouth, covering the word "ghost" that he didn't utter.

Omg, Shishi, come and help me!

Your daughter-in-law met a ghost
