The sun slowly climbed from the middle of the bamboo pole to the top of the bamboo pole, and most of the shops in Guduzhou City were abnormally closed.

The large square that was usually used for offering sacrifices and stacking wood near the gate of the city was crowded with people at this time.The crowd is bustling, toes touching heels, and voices such as "who stepped on me" can be heard from time to time in the crowd.

Although the weather is not too hot, the taste is still not very good with such a high density.

What's more, there is no distinction between the rich and the poor today, whether it is a rich businessman or a hawker in Gudu Prefecture, they all huddle together, regardless of you and me.The smells of wonton, honey, hot sauce, and tung oil are mixed together, and there are all kinds of strange smells all around for a while.

The young master of the Ke family was shrouded in such a smell, and was pushed forward by the crowd.

He was born tender and precious, but although he had a lot of flesh, he had no strength, so he could only sway left and right along with the flow of people, even if he wanted to raise his hand and cover his nose with his sleeve made of a piece of gold and a foot of cloth.

The rough clothes of the person next to him made his hands ache.The familiar "Young Master" was separated further and further away by the crowd, and the few guys who followed him were also squeezed away.

Ke Xiaofu frowned tightly. He was surrounded by people in ragged clothes. He had never been so close to these people. And some secret fright.

A somewhat dirty hand stretched out from the gap in the corner of his clothes, aiming at the fine-looking jade pendant of peace hanging on the rich young master's waist.

As soon as his finger touched the jade pendant and was about to grab it, there was a slight commotion in the flow of people. Ke Xiaofu moved unconsciously, and his hands and the jade pendant were just staggered.

Just when the owner of the hand was about to grab it non-stop, a white light suddenly flashed from the corner of his eyes, he raised his head subconsciously, and saw a young man in a white robe with gold patterns that only the Nine Immortals could wear was patrolling the air, Looking coldly at him, the man unconsciously withdrew his hand and hid himself.

There are people from the Nine Immortals Sect who are responsible for maintaining order. Even though tens of thousands of people gathered here, there are still no riots.This is also the reason why rich people like Ke Xiaofu still crowd with the flow of people peacefully even though they are disgusted.

People from the Nine Immortals Sect didn't care about feelings. His father wanted to put some money in for him to install a special tent for shelter from the sun and rain, but they ignored them at all.

It stands to reason that a family like the Ke family has a lot of money and a prosperous population, so there is no need to pray to the Holy Maiden.But people's demands are endless. If you are poor, you want to be rich, and if you are rich, you want to keep the glory and wealth.However, Ke Xiaofu, as a young man who grew up in the brocade nest, doesn't have much obsession with the prosperity and wealth that can be obtained at his fingertips.

His round eyeballs are staring right at the huge round platform in the distance, and Ke Xiaofu's wish is to meet with his own eyes that "saint" who has only seen statues in shrines.

Thinking of this, Ke Xiaofu was faintly excited. This excitement made him abandon his pampered nature for an unprecedented time, and squeezed in the crowd against the sun for so long without making a sound.

Time passed by, and when the sun was about to rise to the top, there was a commotion among the crowd.A few men as strong as a mountain walked towards the round platform shaking their fleshy bodies.

The chief priest had finished reciting a whole set of sacrificial speeches about good weather and the protection of the saint, and then gave up the home field to these strong men.

Ke Xiaofu was not short. He tiptoed, and saw a huge log lying on the ground next to the round platform. The log was tied with a hemp rope as thick as a child's arm, and it was divided into several strands and spread out in a radial pattern.

A few strong men came to the log with great momentum, tied up their sleeves with loops, clapped their hands and moved their shoulders, and made "ho" and "ha" sounds from their mouths.The crowd, too, was infected and agitated.

That log is huge and not dehydrated, it may take dozens of ordinary young men to carry it.These strong men are all the outstanding ones selected in Gudu City, and one person's strength can be equal to nearly ten people.Even so, this log took them a lot of effort.

It was the most difficult thing to get the log off the ground. The leader of several strong men issued an order, and "one, two, three" worked together.Even so, it took four or five attempts before he successfully lifted the log and carried it on his shoulders.There was applause from the crowd, and Ke Xiaofu couldn't help but blushed with excitement.

The round platform used for the sacrifice was as tall as a half-sized child. The strong men carried the log and slowly moved it to the edge of the round platform. They let go at the same time under the command of "one, two, three", and the huge log directly hit the round platform. "Bang" resounded through the square.

The chief priest looked at it and couldn't help wiping off his sweat. Fortunately, the round platform was filled with sand and made solid.If only wooden boards were used, a big hole might have been smashed by now.

Other things can be changed, but it is rare for the Holy Maiden to visit in person, and if she is unhappy, that would be a serious sin.

Thinking of this, the chief priest secretly looked at the disciples of the Nine Immortals who were in the sky above the square. He was very curious but dared not ask: When will the Holy Maiden come?

As the log smashed on the round platform, a cloud of dust was raised, and the strong men were already sweating profusely.They wiped the sweat from their brows, shook their shoulders and arms, and prepared to take a short rest before erecting the log.

As the strongmen climbed onto the round platform one by one, the restless crowd slowly fell silent, even the children lowered their breathing and watched them erect the log.

It might seem easier to erect the log, but it is actually more difficult.Because the log is too heavy, if you are not careful or the force is not well controlled, it is easy to get injured.So there was a dignified look on everyone's face.

One end of the log was aligned with the groove in the center of the round platform, and the pressed hemp rope was also sorted out.The four strong men are in front, pulling the hemp rope on their backs with their backs facing each other.The two strong men were behind, and tied the hemp rope around their waists, in order to prevent the people in front from pulling too far, and the logs would fall down and hurt people.

However, perhaps because he had just exhausted his strength, the log was not pulled up for a while.The crowd, who had been quiet just now, fell into an uproar again.These voices made the wrestlers even more nervous, and their cooperation with each other was not so smooth.

At this moment, a white corner suddenly floated over from nowhere, and with the first cry of "Saint!", the crowd instantly boiled like boiling water.
