Chapter 61: Evil Day

Dragon Boat Festival is the most evil day!

At the beginning of the fifth month of the fifth month, the sun rises and the yin falls, hundreds of insects breed, five poisons emerge, plague is rampant, and evil men are in power!

At that time, people stored medicine in preparation, hanging mugwort high, putting pu sword on the door, wearing pomegranate flowers on their bodies, and taking realgar orally. They also used five-color silk threads to be twisted into strands and hung on the treetops, in front of the door, in the courtyard, or tied to the body.

To protect the body and retain blessings, it is called "longevity thread" or "life-extending thread".

In front of the hall on the roof, it is necessary to put on a mirror that reflects light on people to drive away evil spirits.

On this day, the entire Tanzhou city was filled with smoke, and there was joy and laughter everywhere - the daughter returned Yingying, and the son had fun playing grass, but only the smell of realgar and the smoke of mugwort could not be dissipated.

The Aconite gate of Li's Mansion also followed the trend and was hung with mugwort tied into human shapes and a large bunch of garlic. Pu leaves were shaped into sword shapes and inserted upside down in front of the door. There was also the long colorful

The silk threads are twisted into strands and flutter in the wind!

Everyone in the Li family used the soup made from mugwort, realgar and other substances to rub their bodies until they were red, and took a good bath. Then they came out of the room one by one with their faces flushed.

Li Xingzhi and others ate some corn millet rice dumplings, Pu wine, crispy dumplings, etc., then each of them carried a small pile of corn millet and prepared to go out.

At this time, a servant suddenly reported that it was County Magistrate Cui Da who had sent rice dumplings.

Li Xingzhi looked at the small-cornered rice dumplings and then remembered that he had to send people to pay homage. Just as he was about to say something, Wang Xiucai had already stepped forward. It turned out that just now he had ordered a few slaves to give orders to Wei Dalang, Tu Dalang and Cui Xian.

Ling sent something over.

Seeing this, Li Xingzhi stopped staying and asked his servants to pack up the rice dumplings, while he and his party headed towards the Xiaoxiang River!

As soon as I came out of the city, I could already hear the loud gongs and drums!

The most popular Dragon Boat Festival race is Jingchu!

By the time Li Xing and his party arrived at the riverside, countless people had already set up colorful buildings and mat tents, stretching on both sides of the river, with no end in sight! The buildings and tents were crowded with men and women in costumes, waiting to watch the thousands of boats.

Race!

There were several big red flags at the head of the river. Li Xingzhi stood on a bamboo building hung with colorful silk threads. Looking up, he could vaguely see an archway with a championship hanging in the distance. According to people next to him, that was the place for the competition.

It's the end.

They stood upstairs and didn't wait long when they saw many people playing and playing near the big flag. Then, many boats came into the water - one after another, the finishing touches; some simple ones, about

Several families pooled their money together and bought them themselves; those with bright colors and swaying heads were probably made by wealthy families.

Li Xingzhi heard the people next to him gossiping about which boat belonged to which family, which master made it, etc. Some people showed off to the people next to him, saying which boat was their own and how it was done. When he saw Erlang next to him, he was all

So envious.

Li Xingzhi also felt a little regretful - he couldn't participate in such a grand event!

Not long after, hundreds of dragon boats appeared floating on the river. They were all colorful and different in appearance. They were lined up in a row. It was really spectacular!

"Dong-dong-dong-"

The sound of drums sounded and spread throughout both sides of the river, even in Tanzhou City, it could be heard clearly.

At this time, the originally noisy voices on both sides seemed to have heard the order and became quiet. Everyone looked towards the place where the red flag was waving.

As soon as the three drums were raised and the red flag was raised, fish jumped out one after another and slid forward on the somewhat crowded river surface like flying lights chasing lightning!

Thousands of boats jumped, and for a while, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras on both sides of the strait was loud, and the shouts followed the uniform and powerful rowing of the strong men on the boat, like big waves hitting the shore, one after another, one after another, one after another, one after another.

Here it comes again!

In the river, there are also the sounds of drums on the bow of the boat, trumpets on the stern, and the sound of the big oars in the boat hitting the water, echoing the calls from both sides of the bank!….

Suddenly, the mountains shook, the river surged, and everything in the world became excited and went crazy!

Those on the river were drumming more powerfully, and those on the riverside were shouting with their throats torn, as if they were going to bring this world from one peak of madness to another!

Even Wang Erlang's little face under his yellow-skinned tiger hat turned red with excitement, and he followed the crowd and started shouting with his childish voice.

Li Xingzhi was no longer out of tune with the world as before. He seemed to be driven into a state of madness by the shouts that shook the world. He followed the people next to him and shouted at the top of his lungs. The slaves next to him had no taboos.

, each one shouted loudly!

At this time, Li Xingzhi faintly integrated into the world; only then did the corner of the prosperous Tang Dynasty hidden in the few strokes of historians begin to be revealed in front of him...

As the drum beat became more and more urgent, two dragon boats were seen taking the lead and heading straight for the championship. Finally, with the sound of "Dang——!", the two boats actually grabbed the championship at the same time, and together they

Using inertia, sliding forward...

Li Xingzhi no longer cared about how to determine the outcome. After a few minutes of shouting, his throat had become hoarse and his saliva had dried up.

After the music was over, everyone dispersed. Today's dragon boat race was over at the moment the gong sounded. Only the winning families were still rejoicing. The others were in twos and threes, talking about today's interesting things, while walking back, and again

Looking forward to tomorrow's dragon boat race.

Li Xingzhi started to walk back among the crowd. Suddenly he remembered that the rice dumplings in his hands had not been thrown into the river. He looked at the people in the group and saw that they were all carrying a bunch of rice dumplings. He smiled in his heart, then turned back to the river and threw the rice dumplings.

Down.

He looked at the string of rice dumplings in front of him and slowly immersed them in the clear river water with silver waves. Only then did he think of those forgotten people and the original intention of still holding the rice dumplings. He felt inexplicably sad.

There is an inexplicable meaning.

In this moment when thousands of boats are racing and everyone is cheering, it seems that everyone has forgotten the original meaning of the Dragon Boat Festival, forgotten Qu Zi who threw himself into the river with injustice, and Wu Zixu who walked away in hatred. What should have been a moment of silence and mourning has become a moment of silence and mourning.

Have a joyful holiday!

He looked at the endless river and wondered when the grievances of the two people would be washed away!

Li Xingzhi is not a person who likes to be sad about the autumn and the spring. Listening to the laughter of the people around him, the trace of sadness disappeared with it - there are always many helpless things in the world, and people still have to look forward.

Only when you are content can you always be happy!

"Oops -" Li Xingzhi was lost in thought when he suddenly heard Erlang shouting and saw a little beggar bumping into Erlang.

The little beggar got up and wanted to run away, but was caught by Li Xingzhi. He ignored the little beggar's cry and asked Erlang directly: "Did you lose something?" It's no wonder that Li Xingzhi is so sensitive, it's actually from TV.

This is a trick that thieves like to use.

Erlang touched his body and said, "It's not lost." As he said that, he also touched a few coins and gave them to the little beggar. Maybe he remembered the past and felt sympathy for him.

When Li Xingzhi saw this, he let the little beggar go.

However, for some reason, he vaguely felt that something was wrong. However, after thinking about it, he couldn't think of anything. He just said that his worries were unfounded!
