Laba Festival

Laba is more meaningful to Taoism than New Year. The Taoism of Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifengxiu does not belong to Taoism in the strict sense, but it has a deep relationship with Taoism, so Laba Festival should be more grand.

What's more, since the founding of Tianyou Kingdom, Taoism has always been respected as the state religion, and Laba is a day of sacrifice in Taoism, the handover of the old and the new, and it is especially important to worship the gods and ancestors and thank the blessings.

There is also Buddhism in God Blessing Country, which came from a foreign country in the west.To Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng, the doctrine of only practicing the afterlife is more like a means for the superiors to win over and control the people, rather than an improvement in their ideological realm.

The miscellaneous porridge of Laba has a faint fragrance. Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng have incense tables in front of them. Meat and melons and fruits are used for sacrifices on the incense bank. There are solemn bells in the distance. passed from here.

Although Min'an Temple occupies a small area, there are not many Taoist priests in the temple, and it is not inconspicuous and prosperous on weekdays, but whenever there is a crisis, the Taoist priests in the temple are always the first to go down the mountain to save people.

Therefore, the people in Pinghuai Town are very convinced of the Min'an Temple. If the family has a good harvest in summer and autumn, they will share some grain and send it to the temple.And every time the Taoist priests in the temple will carefully record the names of the future people.

When you go next time, you will find that in the worship hall in Guanli, people who come to deliver food and things have erected longevity cards to pray for blessings and avoid disasters.

The wooden sign, which is as tall as a person, is densely written with names. Not only does it not feel intrusive, but it has a refreshing feeling, and the sense of freshness and concentration is very obvious.

What Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng worship is Tiandi, they are born aliens, Tiandi can be regarded as their real biological parents.

Cigarettes curled up into the sky, and in the gradually disappearing clouds, the two recited prayer scriptures cross-legged on the ground again. As the scriptures came out from their mouths, a faint golden light of merit and virtue came from the two of them and spread around. Come.

While chanting scriptures, the spiritual power and golden light of merit that escaped from the two of them nourished all living beings nearby, and they seized the opportunity to better nourish themselves.

And the golden light came back after a while, and the returned golden light carried the gratitude from the heart of all things. Although it was thin, it was more solid than what the two of them radiated before.

This sitting lasted for three hours, for a full six hours, the two of them had been chanting the scriptures, and the range of the escaping spiritual power and the golden light of merit and virtue expanded more and more. When the bells sounded together, it was surprisingly peaceful.

The green smoke curls up to the clouds, and the faint sound of bells cleanses the world.

The sky was as blue as blue, and everyone felt that the weather today was exceptionally good, and it seemed that even the air was a little sweeter than before.

The children ran happily in the yard with the noodles made by their mothers in their hands, and the adults sat on the porch talking and laughing, waiting to enjoy the delicious food after worshiping the gods and ancestors.

Today's dinner is particularly hearty, and even the poorest people's table is full of meat.

Xie's dinner was as sumptuous as ever. When Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng were offering sacrifices, Xie Yi and the others also worshiped their gods together. Although they were orphans and didn't know who their parents were, it didn't mean anything Influence them to pray for the two masters of the family.

For the first time, Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng called everyone together for dinner. Although there were still two tables, one large and one small, they were all in the same courtyard. This was already a great deal for Xie Yi and the others. Honored.

After the lively dinner, Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng looked at each other with a smile, and then each took out a volume of exercises from their arms. The two were very alienated from these people before, and then their performance caught their eyes. , and the treatment was also raised.

But now, they are not bad-natured and very loyal, Xie Yi and the others are not stingy with giving them more things.

"Come forward." Ye Yuanxian said.

The nine people kneeling below immediately stepped forward.

"You have performed very well. Now you have two choices. The first is to accept this exercise book in my hand, fully teach your loyalty and soul, and sign a blood contract with me. After that, you will I will always be a member of the Xie family, and there is no possibility of leaving."

"The second is that I will return the contract of sale to you, and I will give you 20 taels of silver. You can choose a place to settle down, marry a wife and have children, forget everything you have experienced in Xie's house, and live a good life."

Xie Yi and the others looked at each other in shock. Compared to the harshness of the first option, the second choice is almost the life that everyone dreams of. If this choice is advanced half a year, they will choose the second choice without hesitation. way.

But now, Xie Yi came back to his senses, bent down first, and knocked his head heavily on the ground: "The little one is willing to sacrifice everything, including life and soul, to the master, please take him in."

Immediately afterwards, Xie Er and Xie Jiu also reacted, kowtowed like Xie Yi and replied: "The same is true for the younger ones."

Ye Yuanxian raised his head slightly, he expected that these people would choose the first path, but he didn't expect them to be so decisive, this reaction was really beyond his expectation.

Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng looked at each other and smiled, they both accepted this reaction very calmly, they shot out a burst of spiritual power, the nine of them only felt a stabbing pain in their hearts, and a drop of blood floated in front of them.

"Head up." The voices of Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng exploded above their heads like a soul-shaking bell.

Everyone raised their heads in unison, looking directly at their master for the first time, with fiery and loyal eyes.

"As long as this drop of blood is under our hands, your life and soul will always belong to the Xie family. Once you have the idea of ​​betrayal, your soul will be scattered and you will never be reborn forever. Have you thought about it?"

The nine people said in unison, "The little one swears to follow the two masters to the death."

Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng smiled happily: "Very good, the contract is established."

Immediately after the blood beads disappeared, everyone felt that they had established some kind of connection with the two masters, as if they could grasp their movements no matter where they were in the world.

However, there was no fear on the faces of the nine people. As early as when they made their choices, they had already predicted the worst outcome.

The three girls looked at all this enviously, and they knew in their hearts that even though their loyalty was no less than that of Xie Yi and the others, they might not be able to enjoy the treatment bestowed by the two masters just because of their female identities. .

Only Xie Laohei was in a daze. He was almost half a hundred years old, and he had lived a happy life with his wife and children before. Now he managed to live a stable life. He only felt terrified of a master with all-powerful means.

Xie Laohei is just the most ordinary person among ordinary people. What he dreams of in his life is to live a stable life, and finally die in peace.

Now that this desire has suddenly changed, what should he do?

Different from his performance, the eyes of the three women were only envious and regretful, without any hesitation or flinching.

Although they were women, they had grown up in small households before, so they were unavoidably shy and timid. In the past year, they have seen all kinds of magical methods with their masters, and seen the same things as those in the house before. All kinds of different.

They have never been reprimanded and disgusted by their masters because of their status as women, and they have also seen fighting and plotting like men. After all this, how can they be willing to be ordinary women who only know obedience?

Even though the thoughts in their hearts were surging like waves, the faces of the three women still didn't show anything, only their eyes were full of envy and longing.

Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng bestowed exercises with matching attributes according to Xie Yi's different physiques, and the few of them put away the frenzied excitement on their faces and backed away, giving way to the venue.

The three women looked at the few people backing away, with uncontrollable envy and regret on their faces.

I envy Xie Yi and the others for having the body of a man and having everything the master bestows, but I also regret that I am not a man, so I have not been selected by the master.

Seeing that the always stubborn Chunlai almost shed tears on his face, Ye Yuanxian turned his head and looked at the three of them amusedly: "Don't you want to?"

"...." Before they could react, the body first made the most direct choice in their hearts. The three of them knelt on the ground with a "boom" sound. The pain awakened their thoughts, and then they spoke out the thoughts in their hearts.

"Yes, maidservant is willing. As long as maidservant can follow her around, maidservant is willing to do anything." After that, there were a few loud bangs, and when they raised their heads, faint blood was already oozing from their foreheads.

"Okay." Ye Yuanxian smiled, seeing the stubborn woman couldn't help but slow down his tone: "You know, although you are women, the two of us have never imprisoned you because of your status as women."

"For us, both men and women are the same. They can soar above the nine heavens with their own abilities and plans. In the world that you don't know, women's achievements are no less than men's, and some women's talents even surpass those of men. Many men feel ashamed."

Ye Yuanxian's words made several girls look up in astonishment, their eyes were filled with disbelief at the world Ye Yuanxian described, and there was faint blood bursting from their hearts, they felt that something had changed.

The transformation of the girls was not obvious at this time. Compared with Xie Yi and the others who grew up in the military camp, among the three girls, Huahong and Liulu could barely read, so they had to work hard on literacy before practicing the exercises. A lot of effort.

In the end, only Xie Laohei was left alone. He knelt tremblingly in front of the two masters, not knowing what to say?

Does it mean that he is ungrateful and refuses to follow his master and give everything?Or is it that he is as timid as a mouse and just wants to live an ordinary life in a small mountain village?

The torture that came from his heart made this honest man not know how to react, he was almost crying out of anxiety.

The rest of the servants looked at him and sighed, how could they not know Xie Laohei's character after being together for such a long time.

However, without waiting for Xie Laohei to speak, Xie Yifeng took the lead and said: "I know what you think in your heart, and I also know that you only want stability in this life. You should not put too much pressure on you."

Under Xie Laohei's surprised eyes, Xie Yifeng pushed the 20 taels of silver in front of him: "You still have two choices now, the first is to stay in Xie's house, and everything remains the same as before. The second is Take the 20 taels of silver and leave, and find a place to spend your old age by yourself, which one do you choose?"
