Chapter 1237 The Legend of Panwang Festival
Zhao Han left, and left here with the mission goal of this trip.

His arrival seemed to have changed nothing, but it seemed to have changed something in this ancient mountain town.

When Zhao Han came, he didn't bring anything.

When he left, he didn't take anything with him.

However, because of the appearance of Zhao Han, and because of the misunderstanding of the old grandson and his father, all the problems and contradictions that existed in the ancient town have been completely changed recently.

In the ancient town at this time.

Zhong Yunqi and several other young people who came to the ancient town with him, watching the scene of people in the town gathering together to slaughter pigs and sheep, it was very lively.

"This picture makes me unable to help but resound the Panwang Festival in my hometown. Alas, I won't go back this year for the festival!"

At this time, among the young people, one of them suddenly expressed emotion.

Ok?
Originally, Zhong Yunqi and the others were in a low mood.

Zhong Yunqi, because of what his grandfather said to him before, and the yellowed manuscript, fell into deep thought, thinking about some things about himself!
As for the others, because they failed to stop the sacrifices of the people in the town, their work was not making any progress, and they were naturally depressed.

It was at this time that the exclamation of one of them attracted the attention of the others.

"Panwang Festival, what kind of festival is that, why haven't I heard of it?" One person was curious, so he asked.

Everyone knows about festivals like New Year's Eve, Lantern Festival, Cold Food Festival, Qingming Festival, Zhongyuan Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Qixi Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Double Ninth Festival.

But I really don't know about the Panwang Festival that person just mentioned.

"Oh, this is a festival in our hometown Jinxiu, a festival unique to our Yao people!" The man explained.

A few people were curious, so they asked more questions, and even Zhong Yunqi was aroused by curiosity, so he listened.

The man told everyone something about the Panwang Festival in their hometown.

Every year in October, the Yao people hold a ceremony to worship King Dubei in front of the temple. They will meet men and women who have no real family, and the men and women will dance together in groups, which is called Tayao. "

"Ta Yao" refers to "Dancing Pan Wang", that is, dancing is used to express worship to the ancestors during the Pan Wang Festival, and it is also called Pan Wang fulfilling his vows.

According to legend, in ancient times, the Yao people traveled across the ocean by boat, and encountered strong winds and waves. The boat drifted in the sea for seven to 49 days and could not reach the shore. The boat was about to be destroyed.

At this time, someone at the bow of the boat prayed to the ancestor King Pan to bless the safety of his descendants and made a great wish.After making a wish, the weather was calm, the boat docked quickly, and the Yao people were saved.

This day is the sixteenth day of the tenth lunar month, which happens to be King Pan's birthday.Therefore, the Yao people who went ashore cut down trees and dug them into wooden pestles, steamed glutinous rice and pounded them into glutinous rice cakes.

Afterwards, everyone sang and danced to celebrate the Yao people's new life and King Pan's birthday.From then on, the Yao people called this escape as "Panwang Festival".

"In our hometown, every year when the Panwang Festival comes, the Yao compatriots from many surrounding villages will gather together at Panwang Mountain, sing and dance in front of the statue of Panwang, and toast and worship!"

"Where we are, every year on Panwang Festival, all compatriots will sing "Panwang Song" together."

"I heard from my grandfather and the others that after the death of King Pan, the officials oppressed and persecuted the Yao people and seized the land from the Yao mountains.

The famous Yao family filed a complaint to the higher authorities, but the pleading paper never reached the emperor.

Later, the clever Yao people thought of a way to hide the complaint paper in the long drum, and went across the state to play the long drum and perform folk skills.

In this way, the Yao people finally arrived at the capital, went to the Jinluan Hall, opened the long drum, took out the pleading paper, and then approved the lawsuit.

Later, during the Panwang Festival, we Yao compatriots will dance long drums and sing "Panwang Song" in unison, and this has been passed down from generation to generation. "

The man had almost finished talking about the Panwang Festival.

Many of these are actually legends that have been passed down from generation to generation.

After Zhong Yunqi heard it, his heart was shocked.

What this person said seemed to be a bright light in his confused heart!
Zhong Yunqi looked down at the yellowed manuscript in his hand, and his heart suddenly became clear!
He finally understood that his previous situation was small!

He always thought that the behavior of offering sacrifices to gods in the ancient town of his hometown was a kind of superstition.

And they came back here to impart knowledge and spread science.

That's why they try their best to resist and stop this kind of activity.

It is also because of this that their work has created such a big conflict with the people in the ancient town.

However, what Li Qijie said just now made Zhong Yunqi find a new direction.

Li Qijie is the young man from Jinxiu who told everyone about the Panwang Festival.

The King Pan they enshrine is Panhu, also known as the Dragon Dog.

In other words, the Yao people are a nation with dogs as their totems; "Pan Wang Song" vividly reflects the primitive beliefs of the Yao people who worship dragon dogs as the ancestors of their nation (totem belief and ghost belief, ancestor belief combine together).

If we really want to look at it according to their previous attitude towards the sacrificial behavior in the ancient town, then what is the essence of this Panwang Festival?

Li Qijie is from Jinxiu. Compared with Zhong Yunqi and his group, an ancient town deep in the Hengduan Mountains, how much more developed it is!
Since such a place can accommodate Pan Wang, it can be recognized by so many people!
So why can't they accommodate a so-called guardian deity of the mountain?
Zhong Yunqi understood that their previous structure was too small, and the way they dealt with the problem was too radical!
There are obviously better and compatible ways, why use such an extreme way to deal with it and stop it!

His grandfather, the old mayor Zhong Yuanshan was right!
Regardless of whether those are true or not, these are things passed down from generation to generation by their ancestors, and they are their roots!
Without these things, even the sacrifice that only happens once in ten years is eliminated, then what else are they left with?

"Everyone, I have a solution!" Zhong Yunqi suddenly turned his head and said to his companions.

"What way?" Several people were a little confused by his rambling words, and asked in puzzlement.

"About our work, I already have a new method!" Zhong Yunqi said.

"Really? What's the solution, let's talk about it!" Several people suddenly became excited.

Why did they come to such a remote place? They came to do poverty alleviation and support education.

The work was not going well before, but now that there is a solution, I am naturally excited.

Passionate youth, nothing less than the same!
However, it is precisely because there are so many passionate young people that Huaguo can continue to grow and develop, and grassroots construction can continue to become stronger!
