Pick up an abandoned child and overwhelm the world

"Okay!" Strange to say, when Cheng Ning heard that Yeluqi would go, he still hinted at himself from the sidelines. Immediately, his nervousness was reduced by more than half, and he even felt a little joy in his heart, a sense of peace of mind.

Afterwards, Yeluqi carefully instructed Cheng Ning on some small details, making sure that Cheng Ning's nervousness had almost disappeared, and then handed Cheng Ning over to the many priests waiting behind him. Watching Cheng Ning walk out of the main hall step by step, slowly walk down the hillside, towards the altar under the hillside!

It wasn't until Yeluqi was left alone at the gate of the shrine that he turned around and walked back into the shrine. When he came out from time to time, he was dressed in black and had black hair. His figure shook instantly, and several afterimages disappeared in the The direction Cheng Ning left.

……

The altar of Zhusui City is located in a flat and open place under the hillside of the Jingu Temple, and there is another temple with a lot of incense not far away!

The Lantern Festival is also known as the Shangyuan Festival. It is a day of reunion. Folk people will hold various grand celebrations on this day. Appreciating lanterns, guessing lantern riddles, and visiting temple fairs have almost become indispensable activities. , all of this unfolds around this temple and this altar!

Surrounded by the priests, Cheng Ning hadn't even walked down the mountain when he was shocked by the lights extending down the hill that almost illuminated a small half of the city. Happy and peaceful.

But it made Cheng Ning nervous again...

"Is... is it okay?" Cheng Ning whispered to himself, when he saw the altar surrounded by people on the hillside, Cheng Ning's feet slipped and almost fell off. Fortunately, he was supported by the priest with sharp eyesight and quick hands, so he didn't lose his composure. Cheng Ning was so frightened that his face under the veil turned pale and asked the person who supported him: "Are there so many people every, every year?"

Supporting Cheng Ning was a young priest, who saw Cheng Ning's nervousness, nodded slightly and said, "It's always been like this, even... more!"

"!!!" Cheng Ning, who had never received so much attention since he was a child, subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away, but this thought was just a passing thought. He didn't dare to really do this, so he could only bite the bullet superior!

Fortunately, when Cheng Ning walked down the hillside, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a familiar black figure pretending to be a passer-by and followed him. The latter saw him smiling at him, and Cheng Ning's confidence suddenly surged out, and he felt uneasy. He kept hinting to himself "I can, I can...", then Cheng Ning took a deep breath, and under the leadership of Priest Qian Ya, he stepped onto the altar solemnly step by step.

When Qianya declared that this was not the previous Priest Mu, there were indeed waves of discussions around the altar, but soon more people recognized that this seemed to be the only apprentice of Priest Mu, who was the most recent disciple. The priest, who had been very active in the city for half a year, suddenly heard more praises, and within a short while, those voices of discussion were drowned out:

"Is it Priest Cheng?!"

"That's right, it's Priest Cheng, Priest Cheng!"

"Priest Cheng is a very good priest. I believe it is the same for him to pray for us. God will definitely hear it!"

"That's right, that's the cemetery he helped our family see!"

"I also showed our family Feng Shui, and how much money has been confiscated!"

"Yeah, he's really a good guy!"

"Priest Cheng, please pray for us this year!"

"Yes, please ask Priest Cheng to abbot!"

……

Everyone respected the priests, and it was such a serious occasion, so people were talking and shouting, and they began to worship around the altar.

This development was really beyond Cheng Ning's expectation. He didn't expect that he almost didn't recognize himself in the way he was dressed, and the people under the altar recognized him at a glance?

But Qianya didn't give Cheng Ning a chance to speak. Seeing that the time was up, the ceremony of offering sacrifices began immediately, and the audience gradually became quiet. Cheng Ning took a deep breath, adjusted his posture, and had no choice but to step on every sound while playing music. The music began to dance lightly, although it was not dancing, but the graceful movements like flowing water were not much worse than dancing, which made the people under the altar look a little crazy for a while...

"That's... my father..." Among them, there was a small person who was hugged by a stern young man and looked at the high altar from a distance, his figure was picturesque in the surrounding high and low lights Cheng Ning followed the figure of that person closely with his pale brown eyes, never letting go for a moment, forgetting everything around him.

"That's right!" A thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy on the side was still holding a lot of things in his hands and said to Cheng Wei with a smile: "Look, young master, that is our son, as long as he presides over this ceremony, You can come back tomorrow morning, so just wait for tonight!"

Cheng Wei didn't say anything, but kept looking closely at his father and that snow-white figure, and that scene was deeply imprinted in the deepest part of his mind. From then on... never forget it!

……

Raising hands, bending down, shaking sleeves, turning around, raising head... Cheng Ning tried his best to control his gaze not to look at anyone below, and also tried his best to let himself ignore any voices he heard. He just did it wholeheartedly. During the next sacrificial ceremony, he tried his best to concentrate his attention. Although he was very nervous at first, he caught a glimpse of Yeluqi not far away as he said, and Cheng Ning gradually calmed down and concentrated. up the spirit.

There are several steps in the ceremony, offering sacrifices to heaven, earth, and various gods in charge of wind and rain, praying for blessings, and expressing people's wishes... It is complicated and simple, but it is the first time Cheng Ning has done such a formal large-scale ceremony. The ceremony will inevitably be difficult. It seems that Qian Ya and other priests who are assisting him are also secretly guiding him, so that he can go smoothly and finally reach the last link: burning incense and saying goodbye to the gods.

To put it simply, it is to light incense for the last time to worship all the gods this time and then it is over!

But what is different from usual is that worship needs to be done sequentially in all directions, and incense candles must be inserted in the incense burners placed in eight directions around them. Cheng Ning knows the order, and the previous ones are all right. Naturally confident, he solemnly and piously worshiped one party after another, and when he saw that there was still the last party, there was an accident suddenly. For some reason, a priest behind him suddenly seemed to have a foot twitch, and his left foot was tilted. , the whole person bumped into Cheng Ning, who was putting incense into the incense burner, and was about to bump into Cheng Ning, but Cheng Ning, who was holding the incense candle, didn't know it, and just continued to move his hands seriously. It is bound to hit the censer, and Cheng Ning will also fall off the altar, and this is still the best situation. What is even more frightening is that there is a blazing bonfire next to the last censer. If this hits, something big will happen!

Immediately, everyone under the altar who noticed this scene screamed in shock, desperately yelling at Cheng Ning to get out of the way, even the other priests on the altar also rushed over in a panic when they discovered this scene, wanting to get out of the way. Holding back the person who lost control and crashed into Cheng Ning, however, it was too late, too late.

"Daddy, Daddy!!!"

When Cheng Ning just raised his sleeve and inserted the incense candle in his hand into the incense burner, he suddenly heard Cheng Wei's panicked cry amidst the buzzing noise in his ears. Cheng Ning's hands froze, and he subconsciously raised his head to look at the sound In the next second, in the vast crowd, Cheng Ning saw that little person who was waving at him at a glance. I didn't hear what he was saying, but my mind was still thinking about the sentence just now, and I only had that little person in my eyes, the corner of the mouth under the veil raised unconsciously, calling in a low voice: "Wei'er..."

"Cheng Ning, watch out behind you!"

At this moment, suddenly there was another voice that was familiar these days and could not be heard with a hint of panic. Cheng Ning immediately recognized that it was Yeluqi's voice. He didn't know what was going on, so he just murmured Turning his head back, he said in a daze, "Huh? What..." Cheng Ning hadn't finished speaking when he saw the priest behind him who was about to bump into him. He was so frightened that he was about to fall to the side, and the side where he was going to fall happened to be a burning brazier!

"Daddy, don't—"

"Ah ah ah..."

"Help, help, who will save him?"

……

Everyone around the altar became completely flustered, Cheng Wei, Wen Jing and Li Yuanliang's expressions changed so much that they didn't dare to watch that scene at all.

Cheng Ning's mind was even blank. He still held the uninserted incense candle in his hand, opened his eyes wide, and stared blankly at the person who bumped into him. At that moment, the voice and everything around him were far away from him. The only figure that appeared was that small person who was far away overseas at the moment. When Cheng Ning was about to be hit, Cheng Ning subconsciously turned his head to look there, and a very inappropriate thought flashed in his heart. Thought: "Wei'er, will you be scared to cry by your situation?"

Thinking about it, Cheng Ning sighed and closed his eyes helplessly, thinking about apologizing to Wei Er afterwards...

"Cheng Ning!!!"

Suddenly, a dignified and anxious male voice suddenly sounded in Cheng Ning's ear, and then Cheng Ning only felt his arm was suddenly grabbed by a force, and in the next moment, he heard two muffled "bang bang", Cheng Ning Feeling dizzy for a while, suddenly bumped headlong into the arms of a night breeze, Cheng Ning slowly opened his eyes in shock, and what caught his eyes...was a familiar black dress.

"As a priest, you can actually make such a mistake on such an occasion, how decent is it?"

A sharp reprimand sounded angrily from above, and Cheng Ning slowly came to his senses in shock. He subconsciously looked up, and a familiar handsome profile came into his eyes. Cheng Ning opened his lips, After a while, he said in a low hoarse voice: "Yelu... Young Master..."

It was Yeluqi who saved Cheng Ning at the critical moment.

Yeluqi reprimanded the priest on the ground who was kicked to the ground by Yeluqi. Yeluqi was in a rage when he heard the voice in his arms. Ning, with a comforting smile on the corner of his mouth: "Look, I said that I am here for everything. If something happens, I will come to the rescue. Don't you think I am here?"

"..." Parted his lips, Cheng Ning was still in fear, unable to say a word, just bit his lips and nodded.

"Are you still standing still?" Yeluqi whispered in Cheng Ning's ear, looked helplessly at the people in all directions under the altar and said, "The ceremony is not over yet, it's still close to the last point, can you still do it? Do you need me to replace someone to help you finish, and I will take you back to the shrine to rest first?"

After a while, Cheng Ning remembered what was going on right now, and was startled. He hurriedly broke away from the hands around his waist, lowered his head and said in a hurry: "No, no need, I can do it myself, it's okay, I Can……"

"Alright, then I'll go down and wait for you first, the ceremony is over, let's go back to the shrine together!" Yeluqi let go of Cheng Ning and said softly in a low voice.

"Okay, okay, then... I'll trouble you..." Cheng Ning was so flustered that he didn't even dare to lift his head, he just focused on arranging his robe and crooked veil...

Yeluqi didn't say much, and carried the erroneous priest, ignoring the terrified voices of everyone in all directions, and walked down the altar with a very cold face, Qianya immediately started to save the scene, signaled the last step of the ceremony again, signaled Cheng Ning to continue, and then The reader also understands that seeing dissatisfaction on someone's face, it seems that there is something saying that he is not qualified to make such a mistake. Is this the gods already hinting that they will not bless them this year?

The voices that had been unheard before suddenly seemed to flock to Cheng Ning at this moment. Cheng Ning's head was swollen and his mind became more and more confused. Biting his lips, he forced himself to concentrate on what was in front of him, not to listen, not to think about anything...

"Daddy..." Cheng Wei was being hugged by Li Yuanliang. The shocking scene just now made Xiao Xiao break out in a cold sweat, but the scene that followed made him feel even more angry. He never thought that seeing someone Other people hugged his father, he was so angry, so angry... he even started to cry!

"It's okay, it's okay, young master, don't cry, you see that your father is okay, it's finally okay!" Wen Jing thought that Cheng Wei was frightened by the scene just now and started crying, and immediately coaxed him beside him.

Cheng Wei didn't even look at it, he just stared at his father, seeing that something was wrong with his father, finally after seeing his father's seemingly slow movement again, Cheng Wei took a deep breath, immature and with The slightly crying voice passed through the noisy surrounding crowd, and shouted loudly to the other side: "Daddy!!!"
