Chapter 90 090. Sacrifice
A group of students from the county surrounded Mu Wenyao, the son of the county magistrate, and walked towards the Earth Temple.

The magistrate of Mu County had just been transferred to Qinghe County, and it was the first time for his family to come. In order to please Mu Wenyao, some students specially brought him to watch the Flower God Festival.

Mu Wenyao and a group of students were wearing smoky gray student uniforms, each with fair skin and very handsome, gentle and gentle, walking together is like a scene.

Shen Ruoxi looked up, she didn't expect the ancient students to be so good-looking, but she still admired the stronger-looking men.

Shen Suhong and the girls all looked up, and when they saw a group of students, they couldn't help their eyes glowing with excitement.

Shen Wanni saw that it was Mu Wenyao who came, so she quickly straightened some skirts. This is her future husband-in-law, so she must leave a good impression.

Mu Wenyao is a son of an official family, and his manners are very cultivated. Although he is surrounded by people, he does not look arrogant, but gentle and refined, with the appearance of a modest son.

He glanced at everyone lightly, and his eyes froze for a moment on Shen Ruoxi and Shen Wanni.

These two girls were the most eye-catching, so he took a closer look.

The girls around shyly covered their faces, feeling excited inside, "Master Mu looked at me, he looked at me, ahhh..."

Shen Ruoxi glanced at Mu Wenyao, then calmly withdrew her gaze, it was not the type he admired, a glance was enough.

Shen Wanni's eyes have been fixed on Mu Wenyao, no matter where Wenyao is, as soon as he appears, he is the most dazzling.

As expected of the man she fell in love with, he was so outstanding.

Mu Wenyao and a group of students came to the gate of the Earth Temple, waved to the land father, and then stepped aside, waiting for the start of the Flower God Festival.

The Flower God Festival is presided over by the most prestigious person from the surrounding villages. This person is an old scholar from Yunjia Village next door. He is already 70 years old. He is called Yun Lao.

Elder Yun followed several village chiefs and prestigious old people in the village.

He glanced at everyone, then walked to the main entrance of the Earth Temple, and said, "Today is the annual Flower God Festival, everyone is welcome to participate, and then we will prepare sacrifices to welcome the Flower God."

The voice of speaking gradually weakened, and finally became quiet and solemn.

The crowd, headed by a group of village chiefs, gathered in front of the Earth Temple, followed to worship together, and received the blessing of the Flower God.

The incense table is ready. In the middle of the earth temple, five offerings have been placed. The incense burner is in the center. There are two vases on the left and right, three flowers on the left and right, a pair of candlesticks on the left and right, and red candles. The candles have been lit and the flames are shining brightly.

Five grains and five fruits are placed in front of the five offerings. The five grains are grains of five colors, rice, black beans, mung beans, soybeans, and peanuts, and the five fruits are apples, oranges, bananas, grapes, and pears.

Others also placed three cups of tea.

Yun Lao took the three incense sticks in his hand and lit them with a candle, held up the incense sticks, and prayed loudly.

Standing in the corner, Shen Ruoxi participated in this kind of sacrifice for the first time, and it was very novel. She watched Yun Lao's movements and listened to Yun Lao's prayers, and felt a sense of solemn ritual, which was something she couldn't feel in modern times.

After praying, Mr. Yun neatly inserted three sticks of incense into the incense burner.

He clapped his palms three times and made a big bow.

Then came a complicated sacrificial ceremony.

When the whole process lasted for a stick of incense, Shen Ruoxi observed it. Even after such a long time, no one made a sound, including Mu Wenyao. It can be seen how much people in this era value such sacrifices.

Elder Yun clapped his hands for the last time and bowed again, "Next, everyone welcomes the Flower God."

In front of the Earth Temple, everyone spread out, leaving the open space in the middle for the girls to dance.

The first dance was performed by the girls of Yunjia Village.
