Chapter 2639 Social Drama ([-])

The tea-picking scene on the stage was reaching its climax at this time. The clown man sometimes walked around Huadan in circles like a dwarf, and sometimes crawled all over the stage with a bench on his back, making the onlookers laugh.The Hua Dan who plays the third lady is even more amazing, not only has a graceful figure, but also has a smile in her eyes, and her singing is extremely crisp. The flower handkerchief in her hand is flying up and down, like a butterfly dancing on the stage.As soon as Huadan opened her mouth, the villagers kept shouting "Hello", and the farmers who had some spare money also threw copper coins onto the stage one after another.Every time a copper coin landed, Hua Dan would wink and glance in that direction, her coquettish appearance drew even more applause.

The golden pig knew that this was "Three Ladies Playing the Grandpa", which was about the story of the romantic widow and the three ladies playing with the lecherous father-in-law, so it was only at this time that it started to sing, and the singing was fairly regular, but it was coquettish.By the end of the night, all kinds of obscene words and pornographic songs will come up. If the amount of copper coins thrown on the stage is sufficient, let alone winks, bolder "performances" will also be rewarded.Sometimes during the performance, the danjiao will change people, and it is a matter that the villagers and village households like to see where they have gone.

Therefore, after the shift, the women and children went back one after another. The discipline at home was strict, and even unmarried young people were called back, so as not to watch "God Doesn't Keep Their Houses".

The golden pig doesn't care about "coquettishness" and only looks for family members among the crowd.Lijiawei is where the ancestral halls of the surnamed Li are located in several nearby villages. The social drama held every year is the largest, so every time it attracts villagers from all over the vicinity to come to watch early with their families and children.At this time, the stage was already surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside, and the nearby trees and earthen walls were also full of people.He was afraid that the crowd would cause some mistakes to his old mother and wife.

The crowd swarmed back and forth, but they were sweating profusely after a while, and there was still no trace after a lap. Could it be that they have already gone back?While hesitating, she heard Lianniang calling her name.Looking along the prestige, his wife and mother were on the outskirts of the crowd, almost reaching the base of the Tugu Temple.Lianniang looked at her and shouted repeatedly, while waving the handkerchief in her hand again and again.

The golden pig just squeezed in front of Lianniang and his mother, before he could ask, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Oh! Huang Xiangu has shown her supernatural power~"

Following the man's pointing, everyone looked into the air, and found that it was the big star emitting a trace of red light.Pay attention this time, and look carefully for a while, only to find that there is a shadowy figure there, a full three or four feet high, holding a lantern in his hand.What I thought was starlight was the candlelight inside the lantern.That person was holding a lantern, and it was fluttering in mid-air with clouds and mist. In a trance, the lantern seemed to be red. This is not Huang Xiangu, who else could it be?
Huang Xiangu responded to every request, and her name had been spread all over the country. Immediately, some people knelt down in the courtyard, some took the lead, and the others followed suit, chanting: "Huang Xiangu has shown supernatural powers, Huang Xiangu You have shown your supernatural powers." Even the theater troupe on the stage stopped performing, and the peddlers stopped hawking, and bowed down one after another.

Jin Zhu felt that someone was pulling his hem, and looked down, Lianniang supported his old mother kneeling on the ground with one hand, and grabbed the hem of his clothes with the other.The golden pig had no choice but to kneel down as well, and while bowing, he peeked at Huang Xiangu in mid-air.

But I saw that Huang Xiangu was riding a cloud head, looking down at the villager Zhuanghu kneeling on the ground in mid-air, and she didn't open her mouth to teach the Dharma.After a long while, another spot of fire suddenly lit up in front of the lantern, and it burned into a line of fire in a short while, only rushing towards the ground.This change caused an uproar among the people kneeling down below, only to hear someone muttering loudly: "Samadhi real fire! Samadhi real fire!" Everyone buzzed again: "It's really Samadhi real fire, Huang Xiangu's supernatural powers are amazing."

Seeing that the line of fire burned to the foot of a small hill outside the village, there was a fire immediately there.Everyone got up one after another and rushed to the place where the fire started.When I got closer, I realized that this was a small nameless temple that had been in disrepair for a long time. The people who arrived first had put out the fire, which was still in time, but some curtains and window edges were burned, and the altars and incense tables in the house had already been opened. overturned.

Some people rummaged through the temple to find something regardless of the residual temperature in the house.After a while, he took out a smoky thing with a piece of rag, and shouted: "Let's take a look, let's take a look, what is this?" After wiping the object with a cloth, everyone saw that the object was a cast iron tower about one foot high.The man held the iron tower in his hand, looked at it over and over again, and suddenly shouted: "There are words on it, there are words!" When everyone heard the words on the iron tower, they couldn't help but became more curious, and they gathered around a few more times. step.

Ma Jin, the second brother of the Eight Immortals Society who was fighting the fire next to him, seemed to be able to read, took the iron tower, looked at it with the light of the torch, and then read aloud: "Li Guangyuan, Li Guangyuan, the Jade Emperor sent you to guard the four directions. Send you the pagoda as an order, and make you the king of Tota Li Tianwang. Whoever doesn't listen to you will be willing to kill and beheaded."

Some people in the crowd began to discuss:
"It must be that Master Li led everyone to set up an altar in Zhuangzi to catch the demon. The Jade Emperor saw that he dared to do it, so he sealed him."

"Since the Jade Emperor has made a decree, it seems that this will come true. Li Abo has also been made a god—isn't he named 'Tuota Li Tianwang'?"

"If this is the case, in the future, as long as we follow the uncle to work hard, there will be good rewards."

"This iron tower is a treasure given to the patriarch by the Jade Emperor. Let's send it to the patriarch as soon as possible."

Everyone nodded one after another, surrounded Ma Jin who was holding the iron tower, and returned to Li Guangyuan's estate.Ma Jin raised the iron tower over the top, knelt down at the door of Li's house, and shouted loudly: "Li Tianwang, Li Tianwang, the Jade Emperor sent you the Zhenyao Pagoda! Li Tianwang, hurry up and collect the pagoda."

All the people also knelt down behind Ma Jin and echoed loudly: "Li Tianwang, the pagoda is closed!"

The golden pig also knelt in the crowd, his mind was muddled by these miracles, and he couldn't help shouting with everyone: "Li Tianwang, the pagoda is closed!"

Not long after, Li Tianwang - Li Guangyuan came out surrounded by a group of people.There was still a little ignorance on his face.A few days ago, when Huang Xiangu showed him his face, she told him that there was some immortal energy between his brows, and he could get the Tao by chance.He also told him many stories about the Eight Immortals, saying that this opportunity is the most indescribable. In short, as long as you do more good deeds and do things approved by the gods, chances will definitely come.I didn't expect this opportunity to come so quickly. Looking at the villagers kneeling in front of Manzhuang, he suddenly had a feeling that fate was in my hands, and he suddenly had inexhaustible strength all over his body, as if he had returned to the old days. And weak crown, just imagining that he took over the patriarch surnamed Li and scolded Fang Qiu.

Li Guangyuan took the iron tower offered by Ma Jin and held it up in front of his chest.In an instant, the climax of the Lijiawei social drama bloomed in front of the main entrance of Li's house.

The scene in Lijiawei soon spread throughout the nearby villages and markets, even in the county town.The people in the neighboring villages were instigated by the gods walking around, and they flocked to Lijiawei to "worship the gods".

The small temple of the "discovery" iron tower is now being renovated, and the Li Guangyuan iron tower is enshrined in it, because there are people everywhere secretly instigating and bewitching, countless people go to incense every day, and there is no time to clean up the ashes in the incense burner, and cigarettes are lingering every day , so lively.As for the merit box, it is filled to the brim with offerings of money every day.Consecrated food, snacks, flowers and fruits, cloth, silk and satin... are piled up on both sides of the small temple.

The Li family also set up a pergola under the tree next to the small temple, built an earthen stove, and provided meals and "miracle medicine" to those who came to worship the gods.For a while, the news that Li Guangyuan was an "immortal" descended to the earth spread like wildfire, creating an uproar.

Seeing that it was going to rain, Lianniang was picking up the leaves, while peeping at her husband and the group members building a shed together—more and more pilgrims came, the original shed was not enough, and a new one had to be built.

Now that men have joined the Eight Immortals Association, they don't need to travel far. They only need to practice for half a day every day, and there is a quota for doing some chores. If they do additional chores, they will be rewarded.This is much easier than going to Xiaoyao Market to work part-time.

Jinzhu became a group member, and even Lianniang also benefited.Because there were so many pilgrims, the manager sent Lian Niang to help the cook in the temple. Although there was no wages, there was no money for meals, and after cleaning up at night, they could share some leftovers. Can save a lot of chewing grain.She secretly planned in her heart that she would be able to save some more money in a few months.

Ever since she helped cook at the stove, even Huang Xiangu has treated her a little more politely, and she doesn't even need money to continue practicing the Dharma.This is another dollar less!Lianniang is very happy these days - this is the best day since she married the golden pig.Now she only hopes that Huang Xiangu can live in Lijiawei forever, and the patriarch's family will always take the lead in running the Eight Immortals Association, how wonderful it would be!It's just that the man is too stubborn. Lianniang persuaded the man several times to pay homage to Huang Xiangu and ask for a safety talisman. After all, every day is either a sword or a gun. If you have a talisman from Huang Xiangu, you should be safe. "Ha" promised, turned his head and then forgot, saying that he was too much, so he frightened people with a dark face and staring eyes, and he didn't know how Huang Xiangu offended him.

Lianniang thought, as long as she is pregnant, the inexplicable enmity between her man and Huang Xiangu will be understood by then, after all, the man will have to return the gift to Huang Xiangu.It's just that now that the talisman water has been drunk, Huang Xiangu didn't dare to delay in passing on her exercises, but her stomach hasn't improved.Once she secretly went to ask the women in Zhuangzi who practiced the Dharma and conceived together, and they all advised her not to rush this matter: sincerity leads to spirit, and when the time comes, opportunities will come.
