Those years when I hunted demons in Dali Temple

Chapter 94 New Year (Happy New Year)
With the sound of firecrackers a year old, the spring breeze sent warmth to Tusu.

Thousands of families always exchange new peaches for old ones.

---

Overnight, Chang'an City was replaced with plain clothes.

Overnight, it was decorated with red plums.

New Years Eve and New Years this year.

Chang'an City was extremely lively.

But there is a group of people who have a particularly 'hard life'.

They were fishing on duty, were caught by the sage and revealed themselves, and were punished by Emperor Xuanzhi to sweep the snow on the streets of Chang'an City, a group of Dali Temple officials.

New Year's Eve is approaching.

They worked hard to sweep the snow on the streets of Chang'an, just to be able to go home safely for New Year's Eve.

But the snow was swept away, and it was covered up by the firecrackers that covered the sky and the earth.

Anyway, I can go home to have a supper and have a reunion.

Received sympathetic and grateful eyes from the people.

Those who sympathize with them during the New Year’s Eve have to come out to clear the snow; they are grateful that they don’t have to leave home this year, and they can have a New Year’s Eve dinner with He Meimei, and some people’s eyes are more complicated. how nice.

All the officials in Dali Temple said: ——they didn’t want to.

It will still be like this next year, and will be caught by the saint.That lost not only the salary, but also the official position.

---

It was a lively night on New Year's Eve.

There was no curfew in Chang'an City for seven consecutive days.

On the seventh day of the big week there is no court, three days before and after the first day of the new year.

The second day of New Year's Eve.

A group of officials who fell asleep at home thought that they would go to the city to watch lanterns, juggling, and shadow puppetry with their family on the first day of the new year. They were woken up one by one from their dreams by their superiors.

Wang Xuanzhi looked serious, "You have to clean up the snow and the streets in Chang'an City today."

The crowd howled.

Jiang Qi asked bravely, "Why is Si Qing so anxious?"

Wang Xuanzhi stared at him for a while, until Jiang Qi bowed his head in embarrassment.

He said: "In a few days, King Qin's army will return to the court. You don't want their horseshoes to fall in the snow in the east, but have an accident at your door."

The lazy group of people heard that King Qin's army was still heading, and they finally came back with such vigor and vigor.

They took brooms and resigned themselves to clearing the snow. Although they swept and fell, they had no complaints.The King of Qin is a great talent in their hearts. The Great Zhou Dynasty was only established for a few years, but before that, he had already fought south and north.

On the contrary, the prince was somewhat suppressed from the light.

Thinking of this, they didn't dare to think about it anymore. Thinking about it again would be another scene of royal family fighting.

Maybe big week will be different.

"Aye, I want a bunch of candied haws."

"Buy it, you must eat it for the New Year."

"Mother, that kite is so big and beautiful."

The woman squeezed the money in her hand, gritted her teeth, "Pick the biggest and most beautiful one, and go back and play with your brothers and sisters."

"Okay." Five or six children cheered together, and the cheers of a group of children made the surroundings suddenly lively.

Dao held a rabbit lantern in his hand, and squeezed into the lively crowd, he still couldn't recover.

She asked: "Si Qing, why don't you clear the snow with those people, but instead, a Taoist priest like me, visit Chang'an City together?"

Wang Xuanzhi smiled and frowned, "They made a mistake. In the past, they took money to ask people to come and sweep it. This year, they lost a sum of money. This year, the money for eliminating demons has gained a lot of money."

"Or do you want the whole Dali Temple to clean up the streets together?"

Doesn't the entire Dali Temple also include her?
Daoyi is not stupid, a poor friend will not die a fellow Daoist.

She can stand in front of monsters, so let them stand in front of her at this time.

Well, this is called colleagues helping each other before.

Daoyi's eyes lit up.

She also frowned, and her voice was rare and clear, "Siqing's actions are profoundly righteous, fair and honest—" Regardless of whether it fits or not, she praised eloquently, and both of them felt comfortable.

The two stepped on the snow that had just been cleared, chatting while walking.

Daoyi: "Siqing won't go home, will you celebrate the New Year with your family?"

Wang Xuanzhi: "My parents are not at home. Therefore, my aunt and the others do not restrict me and have their own arrangements."

Dao Yi was very curious.

She lived there for several months and never met Wang Xuanzhi's parents.

"What kind of people are Siqing's parents?"

Wang Xuanzhi lowered his head and chuckled, "They are very interesting, if you meet them, you will also like them."

"Brother, why do I feel that the two of them seem to be looking at each other." Chen Shuguang tilted his head, and finally expressed his doubts.

Chen Yizhi also said with some difficulty, "Xiao Er, I feel the same way as you do."

"You can speak softly, I'm not deaf." Daoyi turned around and said.

The four of them made an appointment today, and had a good day together.

The result is.

The two brothers of the Chen family carried all kinds of gifts.

Wang Xuanzhi laughed along.

Daoyi also carried a lot of things.

A tiger mask was hung on her head, and the rabbit lamp in her hand had already been done by Wang Xuanzhi, and she was holding another one, a picture of the night walk of ghosts, the shadow of the lamp was not very conspicuous in the crowd.

Wang Xuanzhi wore a fox mask, and held the rabbit lamp lightly.

Chen Shuguang used his arm to support the chicken mask.

He muttered unconvinced, "Brother, how could you do this?" He took a bunch of things with both hands, and put a little Bifang on his head, oh no, fat Bifang, it got fat again.

Chen Yizhi was wearing a kitten mask, through two small holes, he cast a helpless glance at his younger brother.

He pocketed his right hand, it was so numb, this fat fox was too heavy, "How about we change it?"

Compare the weight of the two.

Chen Shuguang suddenly felt that it would not be difficult to get little Bifang on his head.

The four struggled to squeeze through the crowd.

I even met colleagues who were waiting to be cleaned several times.

Anyway, they wore masks, and no one knew them.

"Look, there are many people around in front, let's go and have a look." Daoyi jumped up excitedly.

Break through layers of crowd.

Several gifts had been lost, the clothes were a bit messed up, and the mask was crooked, but it was not lost.

They finally squeezed in.

Inside is a stall set up by a young man.

There are many things on the ground, and there is a stack of circles beside it.

Among the items on the ground is a statue of Lao Tzu, which is milky white, really a virtuous man.

Dao's eyes straightened, "Seller, how do you play this," she asked impatiently.

Seeing that she was young, the seller also came over with a smile, "Ten pennies are ten circles, and each circle is used once. As long as you have anything in the circle, you can take it away, and there will be no extra money."

Dao Yi immediately took out ten coins from his body, "Seller, here you are."

She took the circle and put it on the statue of Lao Tzu with a bang.

"Okay!" Someone on the side cheered repeatedly.

The corner of the seller's mouth twitched, his heart was bleeding, it was real white jade, and he lost money.

Going down another circle, a gold ingot——

Ten circles down, all good things.

Dao Yi held a bunch of things in his arms, and looked at them for the last time, "I want these two things."

I seem to have to take it home, but there is a lack of offerings at home.

Gold, even more lacking.

The seller's heart was bleeding, and he could only laugh and send the four of them away.

"Wow, there are still people in front." Just as he squeezed into the crowd, Daoyi's pupils narrowed sharply.

A ball of flames shot straight at her face, and barely stopped again.

There was a little boy, holding a gong, walking along the crowd begging for rewards.

Dao Yi touched the ingot very reluctantly, and just squeezed out a little warm gold.

Gritting his teeth, he placed it on the gong plate.

The little girl's eyes were wide open, watery, filled with joy.

She thanked again and again, "Thank you, sir, you will have a safe life."

---

Let go of Asano, let go of the monsters.

The four of them played happily for a day.

The sky is hazy and still hasn't returned.

"Thank you Siqing, Bad Shuai, and Mr. Chen Erlang." She knew these three people, and she knew that when she first came to Chang'an, she had no relatives by her side, so they stayed with her on New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve.

Chen Shuguang waved his hand, "If you say this, you will be offended, you are my little master, just call me Shu Guang."

Chen Yizhi also nodded, "Except for official business."

Wang Xuanzhi also stared at her with a soft expression, "En."

Dao opened a pair of bright eyes.

Fireworks just lit up in the sky, and it was the direction of the imperial city.

"boom---"

The gorgeous appearance of the fireworks melted into everyone's eyes.

"Ando, ​​Happy New Year!"

"Daoyi, Happy New Year!"

"Yizhi, Happy New Year!"

"Daoyi, Happy New Year!"

"Shu Guang, Happy New Year!"

"Daoyi, Happy New Year!"

---

Walking through one long street after another, the streets are full of moving heads.

"Chang'an City is really beautiful. It is different from the secluded beauty of Jiuxiao Temple. Everyone in Chang'an is doing what they can and living actively. It is because of them that Chang'an exists."

"It's also because of them that there are thousands of households, cities in every continent, and the ever-growing Great Zhou."

"Wish: There will be no war in the future."

"Wish: No monsters will cause trouble."

"Wish: The world will be peaceful soon."

"May: the prosperous age will come soon."

"boom---"

"boom---"

"boom---"

Fireworks burst into the night.

It exploded suddenly.

The stars and fireflies converge.

The light is as bright as day.

Light up every inch of ground under your feet.
