Go back to the valley to farm

Chapter 546 Nuo Technique
Chapter 540 Seven Nuo Skills
As soon as the drums were played, Grandpa Yu stepped down from the stage and came to the center of the altar. Two village elders made him a magic robe. Next, a pile of charcoal was burned, and the iron plowshares and iron hoes used for daily farming were put on it.

The ceremony continued. Li Junge watched the plowshare and the front end of the hoe burn red, and he couldn't help but feel nervous. Grandpa Yu is going to make a big move.

Sure enough, after the ceremony was over, Grandpa Yu clamped a red-hot hoe with iron clips, brushed it with a handful of hay, and the hay was immediately ignited.

Another spray of oil on the hoe, and the hoe immediately became ablaze.

When the fire was extinguished, Grandpa Yu put the hoe back into the carbon pile, took out a bright red iron hoe again, and began to slap the surface of the hoe with his palm. At the beginning, he would go away with a little touch, and then he stayed on the surface of the hoe for more and more time. Long, Li Junge could clearly see that his hand rested on the surface of the red-hot hoe.

After clapping his right hand and clapping his left hand, the crowd burst into exclamation.

In the end, Grandpa Yu even stuck out his tongue and licked the hoe a few times, and the exclamation became louder.

Putting down the hoe, several village elders had already dragged the iron share out of the carbon pile and placed it on the ground.

The ground was covered with a layer of dry sand, and Grandpa Yu knelt down to check whether the iron splitters were firmly placed one by one.

The iron share gradually turned from bright red to dark red. Grandpa Yu took out a few pieces of yellow talisman paper and swept it across the share, and the yellow paper immediately burned.

After finishing all this, Grandpa Yu recited a few more incantations, and a village elder came up to take off his shoes and socks.

Grandpa Yu stretched out his left foot to test the surface of the share a few times, retracted his right foot and tried it a few times on the surface of the share, then suddenly took a step and walked across the dark red surface step by step.

"Damn it!" Li Junge exclaimed in a low voice in fright, and quickly covered his mouth.

Ayin's small face was also tense. Seeing Li Junge exclaimed, he explained in a low voice: "This is the Nuo technique. It is a necessary step to invite God. There are dozens of methods, such as mountains of knives, sea of ​​fire, and oil pans. Licking the iron... only if it succeeds will it show that the gods have been invited."

Sure enough, after Grandpa Yu leaped on the iron shovel a few times and stood still again, and Mr. Zhai came over to put his shoes and socks back on, horn horns and cheers resounded throughout the square, and the gods and ancestors of Xuantianzhai had arrived!
Then Grandpa Yu returned to the side of the Dharma platform, holding a bamboo tube and a bell, chanting Miao language while knocking, and started the Miao family ritual.

As soon as the bamboo bell in Grandpa Yu's hand stopped, A Chong, Uncle A Tong and other gunmen stood in a fixed position, let out a cry, and stabbed the water gun alternately with the spear in their right hand.

The water bull roared and ran wildly. After turning around the pillar several times, it finally fell to the ground.

Ayin couldn't bear it, but she still insisted on reading it, and said to Li Junge: "This is the 'Zhi Niu', which is the grandest and most solemn ceremony in our Miao family's sacrificial activities, and it is also the biggest celebration. This The ceremony is also called 'returning the big cow's wish'."

Killing the cow is just the beginning, and then there will be a ceremony to send the cow to heaven. The head and hoof of the cow will be cut off, and the distracted beef will be placed on the dry straw by the fire pond to worship the ancestors. bronze drum.

The lively and unrestrained celebrations have begun.

In an instant, the square became a sea of ​​joy.

The young boys started to grab the mang tubes and lushengs, all wanting to show off their musical skills in front of the girls.

The girls began to sing and dance, and gradually joined hands to form a team.

Hearing Ayin's "Ah", he was pulled into the team by the giggling little girls in a blink of an eye, and disappeared in the crowd of blue silk skirts and silver corner ornaments in a blink of an eye.

Now it’s lively. It’s the first time for Li Junge to celebrate this kind of festival in Miao Village. I just feel that my eyes can’t see it. The SLR in my hand is clicking. When I press the shutter, there are beautiful costumes and joyful dances. , happy smiley face.

Grandpa Yu came over with a few village elders, and smiled at Li Junge: "Pi Wa, don't you want to dance?"

Li Junge said with a smile: "Grandpa, I, who have the same hands and feet, don't end up here, and embarrass the children of the Han family! Your Nuo skills are really amazing!"

Grandpa Yu said with a smile: "Those who are difficult can't know, those who can't are not, but this is the Miao family's witchcraft, so I can't pass it on to you."

Li Junge said: "First of all, let me tell you that I can't use this trick to embarrass me the day I went to Miao Village to marry A Yin! Good guy, I thought it was the top level of difficulty to pass the customs. There are still these. If you want to be more serious, Hanwazi is here One is destroyed and the other is destroyed..."

Grandpa Yu said: "Why do you think you're here today? The last time you called your dad, didn't you say that you and A Yin were playing house on a foreign island?"

Li Junge had a black line on his forehead, seeing what words his father used, he said with a dry smile: "Hehe, why didn't Ayin tell you when I came back the night before yesterday? I guess I wanted to give you a surprise, but I happened to meet Miao Zhai Grand Ceremony."

The village elders all laughed, saying that there was a bit of God's will in Ayin and Li Junge's coming up this time, and it seemed that the ancestors and gods approved of this marriage.

Grandpa Yu patted Li Junge on the shoulder and said, "Ayin must have dragged you to go, right? With your child's stable temperament, I guess you can't do this thing."

Li Junge was about to burst into tears. He has been wronged all the way up to now, so he can be regarded as a sensible person.

He still wanted to cover up for A Yin: "How can it be, the main reason is that I think the prize is attractive, hundreds of thousands a car, and I just want to spend fifty days on the island. You are good at it, so I took A Yin to go."

Grandpa Yu smiled and said, "Come on, I don't know what my granddaughter is like?"

After speaking, he patted Li Junge's shoulder again, and sighed: "She has the temper to climb out of the cliff, Pi Wa, take care of me."

Li Junge quickly waved his hands: "I can't say I'm a caregiver. I like A Yin's personality. She complements me. My parents, my mother, and my grandma also like her very much."

Grandpa Yu said, "What's the matter with you guys coming up this time?"

Li Junge smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just brought some Jiulixiang Wujin rice for the family, and it's not too long to come up to learn about the situation in the Miao Village, but there is no rush, let's talk about it after the celebration is over! "

Grandpa Yu laughed loudly: "Underestimate the festival of my Miao family. This celebration can't be finished for a while. It starts to change seats when it gets dark. It doesn't last for three or five days."

Li Junge was surprised and said: "So long? Ayin and I will go to the city tomorrow. You know Baba Wang and Zhuerchong. Their wedding is scheduled for a few days later, and Ayin and I have to be best man and bridesmaid."

Grandpa Yu sighed again: "Every time I come here, I'm in a hurry, no matter what, I'll go home later and talk while eating."

At this moment, Ah Yin ran over, sweating from the tip of his nose, and dragged Li Junge into the crowd with a coquettish smile: "Grandpa, what's the matter, we'll talk later, I'll take him to dance!"

This jump led to the evening, and when I was hungry in the middle, I went to the side of the square to eat glutinous rice cakes, eat grilled fish, drink Miaojia rice wine, listen to singing, antiphonal songs, and then I was dragged by A Yin to squeeze into the crowd and continue dancing.

As the sun went down, the crowd finally dispersed in twos and threes, carrying their portion of divine beef and walking home with laughter.

Grandpa Yu's family was among them.

It stands to reason that A Yin's family should share the best meat, but Grandpa Yu gave up all the good meat, and the family took a beef louver.

Li Junge carried the Niu louver, walked all the way and said with a smile: "Ayin, I have been listening to you singing for a whole day, and my voice is not hoarse!"

Grandma Ou seemed to have heard the biggest joke, and she bent her waist with laughter: "Singing can make your voice hoarse, so it's not the Miao family's singing style. If you sing ancient songs, you can sing them for days and nights without stopping."

Li Junge was right when he thought about it again. The history of the Miao family is about the same as that of the Han family. Singing the whole set is probably similar to reciting a set of historical records. The ordinary singing method is really confusing.

Looking at A Yin who was like a little phoenix in front of him, Li Junge raised his camera: "A Yin, turn back!"

Ayin turned around and smiled sweetly at Li Junge. Li Junge pressed the shutter, leaving behind the pretty figure of Ayin in costume on the mountain road.

Back home, the women began to change their clothes and take off their accessories, the men began to cook, and Li Junge went to bring back all the gifts that had been thrown along the way.

We all know that A Yin's family's beautiful son-in-law is here today, so the people who originally wanted to treat them consciously didn't come, and only a few village elders came to accompany Grandpa Yu and Li Junge to talk for a while, which is regarded as a show of respect.

By the time the women changed into their normal clothes, Li Junge and Papa Yin had already prepared the meals.

The sacred beef needs to be sacrificed to one's ancestors once it is brought home, and then it is marinated and cut into a plate. The sour soup is boiled in a large pot, and the rest is bacon, sausage, smoked fish and other side dishes.

Finally, there are all kinds of fresh seasonal vegetables, which Shi Kang uses to boil and eat after eating.

Grandpa Yu took out rice wine and poured it on Li Junge, and said, "Pi Wa, try it, this is the freshest Shi Kang."

Li Junge took one for A Yin first, shook his head and said, "If Mr. Jin sees us eating stones like this, he will probably blame us for being reckless."

Grandpa Yu laughed and said, "Aren't you allowed to eat the ones raised by yourself?"

Li Junge also laughed loudly: "It's okay to eat, but this way of eating is a bit extravagant. It's such a big pot! It's the best food that Mr. Jin said, like 'cuckoo, 15 taels' in the old days."

Papa Yin said: "Pi Wa, come here as soon as you come, what are you doing with so many things up, you won't be allowed next time."

Li Junge said with a smile: "It's not all for the family. It's not about Li Lao Ding of the Agricultural University, Wu Zhiqiu Zhaowa, and many student children who like to come to the house to play the autumn breeze. It is also for them."

Grandma Ou said with a smile: "Everyone who shows off their arms and legs, how much they can eat, just add a pair of chopsticks and a bowl!"

Li Junge respected Grandpa Yu, held up a frog's leg and said, "This frog is really big, Grandpa, is the frog farm okay?"

Grandpa Yu said: "No problem, but Lao Ding said that it is cold in the mountains in winter, it is best to use warm water, so that Shi Kang will not be cats in winter, and then he can continue to grow. But the electricity is a bit of a problem."

Li Junge said: "What's the matter, the Miao Village still has frequent power outages?"

Grandpa Yu said, "That's right. When winter comes, it's common for the village to experience power outages. It's said that electricity cannot be supplied during dry seasons. We need to take care of the big places first."
