Liao Zhai Zi is silent

Chapter 134 The scenery on both sides of the river, the smell of the bones and rich families
Two plates of zongzi were offered in front of Zhenjun.

Lin Zhuming began to draw the "Dispelling Plague Talisman".

This Dao talisman is recorded in the Dharma book that I brought with me when I traveled through.

The words "Tian Yi Wu Lei Huo" and "Kill the Five Poisons" were written on it, and it was ordered by the "Emperor Tian Yi".

The Great Emperor of Heavenly Medicine is exactly the Xu Zhenjun enshrined in the Longevity Palace.

This didn't waste Lin Zhuming's energy.

Use cinnabar to blend, use Angelica dahurica to fix the color, spread talismans with the method of distributing qi, and recite the mantra with the method of impeaching the gods.

The painted talisman has a little spiritual light, sticking to the home, can avoid plague ghosts, and can dispel five poisons.

"Make more realgar wine." The old man smiled and poured a small packet of realgar powder into the water and wine: "Drink it to strengthen your courage."

On the other side, Zhao Zhongxin had already arrived at Yuanzhen Temple, and found Wang Cangsong with Lin Zhuming's token.

"Oh, it's a pity for Junior Brother Lin, why is he suddenly unwilling to confer the talisman?"

Look at Zhao Zhongxin again: "Are you Zhao Chengwen's apprentice?"

"Yes." Zhao Zhongxin nodded.

"Zhao Chengwen has some friendship with our priest Yang Shilian. Alas, it's a pity that Zhao Chengwen..." Wang Cangsong felt a little emotional.

Zhao Zhongdao: "Now I have brought Master's slough back to the Longevity Palace, and I will bury it some day."

"This is naturally very good." Wang Cangsong stroked his chin: "Since Junior Brother Lin doesn't want this quota of conferring talismans, let him be given to you, then the poor will not embarrass you."

But it implies something.

Zhao Zhongxin remembered that Lin Zhuming had given him 20 taels of silver at that time, and said that it would be useful at that time, and if he didn't need it, he would buy some yellow paper and so on.

At this moment, he hesitated slightly, and took out the silver: "Then thank you, Daoist Wang."

Wang Cangsong was very satisfied when he saw Yin Zi, and erased Lin Zhuming's name and changed it to Zhao Zhongxin's.

Then he said: "In the past few days, you will stay in the temple, waiting for Duanyang to grant the talisman. In addition, Zhang Jinghui, who came from Jiangxi Longevity Palace, is teaching the Dharma in my Yuanzhen Temple these few days. You are a talisman granter, so you can listen in. "

Zhao Zhongxin could only nod his head...

Then I went to see Yang Shilian again, Yang Shilian sighed a few words, saying that he and Zhao Chengwen were in the same year of Lu students, so what.

Then he asked Zhao Zhongxin if he would like to come to Yuanzhen Temple to practice, and he gave up the descendants temple in the countryside.

No matter how willing Zhao Zhongxin was, he only said a lot of words of thanks.

Yang Shilian recounted his old relationship, but it was just a few words. Seeing that Zhao Zhongxin didn't want to come to Yuanzhen Temple, he didn't say anything.

He just asked Huai Qin who was next to him to find a quieter place for Zhao Zhongxin to prepare for the exam.

Zhao Zhong was a little disappointed and a little nervous in his confidence. He wanted to talk to Lin Zhuoming, but he felt that he should have some opinions, so he stayed in Yuanzhen Temple.

But Lin Zhuming's side has already started to set up the altar.

At night, it was still hot and dry, and at the seventh and eighth of the month, it officially entered the Dragon Boat Festival.

The seven constellations of the Canglong enter the southern sky, the stars turn around, and the heavenly dragon soars up.

All the mountain dragons climbed out of the water and began to breath out the energy of the Canglong.

At the same time, a large number of snakes, centipedes, toads, and scorpions began to move.

The plague gas also began to spread, the hot air from the ground spread out, and even the plague gas from the ground also began to spread.

At this time in Huai'an Mansion, people who died due to severe drought and famine were lying on the side of the road, and because no one collected the corpses, they began to rot slowly.

A large number of flies breed, and evil mosquitoes fly around.

These mosquitoes and flies flew to a sleeping child soon after biting the carrion body.

The next day, the child felt dizzy, and the child's mother hugged him, but she had no energy to find the medicine.

He said he was hungry, so he sold his body. After the clothes were disheveled, he exchanged half of a steamed bun, chewed it up and vomited it to the child.

It's just that the doll's jaw is clenched...

……

This kind of thing doesn't just happen here.

In a place where there were not many people, a few wretched men gathered around, lowering their heads and cooking a pot of broth.

A man who was really hungry stepped forward and lowered his voice and asked, "Brother, what kind of meat are you eating?"

"Mutton, shall we eat together?"

The man looked at the people not far away and smelled the smell of meat, but he just couldn't come over, guarding the shriveled body, waiting for the final destination in hunger.

"Okay, let's eat together." The man swallowed, and then he followed the group, surrounded the iron pot, looked at the soup with yellow grease, and felt no more nausea in his heart.

……

During the Dragon Boat Festival, the city of Nanjing is very lively, and mugwort and calamus are hung on the doors and windows of every household.

The children of rich and noble families were carried out by servants to buy some sachets to avoid mosquitoes.

The streets and alleys are steaming, full of the aroma of rice dumplings.

"Boom! Choke! Boom! Choke!"

The lion dance team walked from the street to the end of the street. The lions' eyes were bright and their movements were agile.

"Hahaha!" I saw someone behind the lion dance holding a banner that read, "Liu's dragon boat team, a hundred boats compete for the top spot."

A few strong young men in red clothes walked behind the lion dance team with paddles in their hands.

There are also many people parading through the city with a dragon boat painted with gold and silver.

"The Liu family's dragon boat is so magnificent!" The people talked a lot.

"Hoha! Hoha!" But he heard the woman's voice.

I saw quite a few girls in very cool clothes, dancing their fists and embroidering their legs: "Who says women are inferior to men!"

"Haha, what are they?"

"These are girls from the brothels on both sides of the Qinhuai River, trained by the women's dragon boat team. This is the idea of ​​the county magistrate. Now, many of the flower boats in the Qinhuai River are docked at the Jiangning River, and they are feasting every night..."

"Hey, if you can have a good time, you can lose ten years of life."

"Which family's dragon boat is the one in this dragon dance?"

"This belongs to the Ma family. The Ma family and the Liu family are rich in Jiangning's half-county. You don't even know that?"

Soon the county magistrate's chariots and horses also arrived, and it was Ren Hongyou who was pretending to be Bai Rongsheng. The local squires around him, respectable juren, scholars, all appeared one after another.

"Haha, the weather in Jiangning is good this year, and the people are healthy and healthy!" But the magistrates of the nearby counties were a little bit sour.

Ren Hongyou bought presents with the money that Bai Rongsheng originally planned to spend on buying officials, and invited people from Jiangning Weaving, Jiangning Governor's Mansion, and the governor of Jiangning to watch the dragon boat.

With the face of these three families, the chief officials of other counties and rich people from all over the place will naturally move after hearing the news.

Among them, quite a few people gave gifts to Ren Hongyou, and the original gift money was recovered seven or eighty eight times.

Gathering so many rich people, wanting to enjoy extravagance, naturally spend a lot of money in Jiangning.

First, local delicacies, and then various local attractions. Eating, drinking, and eating all cost money. Grain merchants from other places saw a profit and came to transport grain one after another. Instead, the price of grain dropped by more than ten pennies compared to before.

At the same time, a large number of jobs were born. Rich people travel in sedan chairs, and they need someone to carry them. They go to brothels, gambling houses, and eat...

There were also more people running errands.

In this way, every day the common people make money, they can eat for a day. Recently, the Dragon Boat Festival has been more relaxed than before.
