Hard work

Chapter 268 Ceremony
Because of Chang Wu's words, Zang Lang has more things to do.Originally, Lan Hua'er thought that Zang Lang would just catch some rats on the mountain and send them over if they were cooked, but he probably couldn't tell what kind of thing it was.Anyway, the meat had to be cooked first, and Lan Hua'er planned to stew the meat at home first, and send it directly, then there would be no problem.

In terms of respect for gods and Buddhas, there are also orchids.But there is a gentleman like Changwu living in Piansheng's house, so she really has no way to respect him.

She also knew that it was unreasonable to use rat meat to worship, so when Changwu looked at her with a smile, she couldn't help feeling guilty in her heart.

But even if she was weak, she didn't show much.He just silently helped Zang Lang settle the matter.But even after the answer, Lan Hua'er still felt a little uneasy in her heart, and couldn't help but whispered, "I can't say for sure. Then there is no pork shop on the back mountain. What do you want?" I'll cut it for you. You still have to go up and look for it, it's a matter of luck. If A Lang really can't meet those, you can't force him to change them."

"This... is also..." Hearing what Lan Hua'er said, the village chief couldn't help being stunned, and immediately didn't know what to say, and his eyes that asked for help drifted over to Chang Wu.

Changwu responded to the village head's gaze very simply, "It's okay. If you go up the mountain for two more days, you can probably meet pheasants. There's no rush for the [-]th day, and it will be delayed for a while. It’s an auspicious day, and it’s okay.”

When he said this, the village head and Lan Hua'er were relieved together.

If they really wanted to come up with some pig's head and sheep's head before the fifteenth day, these two people were actually a little panicked in their hearts.Knowing that there is no time limit, at least there is no need to be so anxious.Lan Hua'er even began to think how long it would take for the vegetable field in the back to be harvested. If he couldn't find it at that time, Zang Lang himself would probably propose to go to a place further in the mountains to have a look.

The matter was settled in this way, Lan Huaer turned around and told Zang Lang, and even told Zang Lang specifically, saying that there was no rush, and that he would just go to trouble when he met.Zang Lang didn't seem to take it very seriously, and only agreed that if he met him, he would go and catch him.

"It's really not possible, can I get fish?" Lan Hua'er murmured softly, "Oh, I didn't ask Changwu if I could use fish instead. If I could use fish, it would be much easier. Now The stream is still full of fish, right?"

Not only is it full of fish, but it is also very fat.After all, when the flash flood broke out before, a lot of food was washed into the water.Aren't the fish nowadays all fat and big?

If it weren't for Zang Lang who didn't have much time to go fishing, and the environment in the village was not necessarily good, Lan Huaer wanted Zang Lang to catch some fish and come back to dry the fish.

Some victims also went fishing in the Houtou stream.It's a pity that there are more people fishing, and the fish have learned to be smarter.They don't have fishing nets, and the daily harvest is really unreasonable.

Lan Hua'er originally thought that since he already had Changwu, Zang Lang would probably not be too anxious to bother with this matter.After all, there was no need to solve it immediately, maybe he would have to wait for several days before he could meet a suitable prey.

Unexpectedly, the second day after this matter was settled, Zang Lang had already brought two pheasants home without a word, which shocked Lan Hua'er so much that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.

Zang Lang's movements were so fast that Lan Hua'er didn't even have time to ask Changwu if he could use fish instead, and it was so fast that Changwu wasn't ready yet.

This man's words were released, but he also felt that you must not be able to catch the prey so quickly, and he looked leisurely. Unexpectedly, Zang Lang immediately brought out the pheasant, but Changwu They were all frightened and looked embarrassed.

"Why... did you meet a pheasant by such a coincidence?" If this is the case, Lan Hua'er can only lament that Zang Lang's luck is really beyond the mark.Or, maybe this is a sign that Aozi Village's luck is starting to improve?

As a result, Zang Lang dispelled the thought of Lan Huaer with a single sentence, "I have always been optimistic about it, but I just didn't start. I thought the nest would be secret, so I raised it first. Since I want to catch it, I got it back first."

Zang Lang spoke very casually, with a somewhat simple and honest look, but Lan Hua'er listened to him so that he was stunned.

She really never thought that Zang Lang would have such thoughts.I have been optimistic about the pheasant's nest before, and I still want to raise it again.That is to say Zang Lang, if someone else changed, let alone have this patience, he might have fainted himself on the mountain in the end.After ten days and a half months, I still don't remember where the chicken coop I saw was at the beginning.

Because of the two pheasants brought back by Zang Lang, the sacrificial ceremony in Aozi Village was held very smoothly.

The village head was actually a little dissatisfied, thinking that if he really got a deer back, it would definitely be more effective—this was naturally just the village head’s own idea, and Changwu didn’t say anything about it—but the village head I also know that the situation on the mountain is not as good as before, and it is already amazing to catch two pheasants.If it is necessary to catch a deer or something before holding a sacrificial ceremony, it is estimated that it will have to wait until next year.

Although it seemed a little rushed at the beginning, Chang Wu was an experienced person, and in the end he managed the sacrificial ceremony smoothly.

All villagers in Aozi Village attended the ceremony.Even those who were sick, as long as they could go to the ground, followed them.No matter what the situation is at home, I am willing to take out some food in exchange for a small piece of blessed meat.They firmly believed in the power of God, and let Lan Hua'er watch from the side, they all felt that these people were actually quite happy.If they have faith, they will not lose hope.

Those disaster victims outside actually wanted to participate in the sacrifice.Some disaster victims had participated in the sacrificial ceremony in their own villages before, and they knew that they would share some blessed food at the end, so they also wanted to receive it.It's really not because of the stutter, after all, there must not be many.What they value is the effect of being blessed.

In the words of Lanhuaer, it is probably something that everyone thinks is "opened".

But because this event was to pray for the future of Aozi Village, Changwu personally came forward to persuade those people.Can only regretfully watch from afar.

Zang Lang only brought back two pheasants, such a small amount of meat would be enough for everyone to eat for a day in the Zhao family.But if you want to distribute it to the people in the village, no one can only get a small piece of such a small amount.Changwu had no choice but to let Zang Lang go over to slice the pheasants, and divide the two pheasants into small pieces and distribute them to the devout villagers.

Even with the change of flowers, they led Goudan up and each asked for a slice.

Lan Hua'er originally wanted to join the queue, but seeing so many people, she was a little reluctant to squeeze.Anyway, Zang Lang will save some for her in the end, so she is not in a hurry.Gaihua wanted to ask her to line up with her, so it can be seen that she was not very interested and did not force her.

In fact, it was just pheasant meat, and Lan Huaer was responsible for cooking it, and it was considered a busy half-day.If you really want to count, she has made a lot of contributions before.At this moment, if she doesn't crowd forward, it is estimated that no great god will think that she is disrespectful.

After the villagers respectfully invited the pheasant home, Lan Hua'er walked over slowly, picking up all the trash that had been thrown away outside.

There are still a few aunts in the village, who have already made appointments, and they will go outside with Lan Huaer to clean up.After these people have cleaned up, they can also bring an extra piece of meat to the house.Lan Hua'er and the others are considered helpers, and it is said that the things obtained by others are different.

However, it is still Changwu's operation anyway, as long as he says that, others have nothing to question.

On the contrary, Lan Hua'er suspected that with Changwu's temperament, he guessed that he would not have the patience to engage in those things--Changwu himself didn't think these things would be effective, they were just a placebo effect, and he didn't think he would Be serious about these things.

Sure enough, after going home, Lan Huaer secretly asked Zang Lang, and said, "Is there anything else you want to do later, sir? It's when we were packing up. Didn't everyone say that what we got was Where did the different pieces of meat have to be re-done?"

Zang Lang shook his head blankly.

Lan Hua'er felt dumbfounded.If it weren't for seeing that the meat was stewed by herself and it was delicious, she wouldn't be willing to ask for this placebo-like thing at all.Anyway, since she knew it, it was of no use at all.

Although Changwu may not have the ability to communicate with the gods, and there is no way to guarantee that the weather in Aozi Village will be smooth in the coming year, but since he presided over the sacrifice, Lan Huaer can clearly feel that the atmosphere in the village has become a little uncomfortable. same.This was something that she couldn't express clearly. She just felt that the aura in the village suddenly changed, as if everyone became happier.

From this point of view, what Changwu said is true if you believe it or not.

Because we have faith, we have the power of the soul.Even if they don't have any harvest now, they still feel that they will have a good life in the coming year, so they are naturally comfortable and peaceful.

Even Dr. Yang came to talk to his family, saying that some patients who used to feel that they were not good enough and did not want to spend more time on treatment are now willing to drink more medicine and accept acupuncture.Some mild symptoms seem to have improved.

"If we all look for you, what's the use of us doctors." Yang Langzhong sighed to Chang Wu.

"There is nothing there. What we do is spiritual. If you are sick, you still have to find Mr. Langzhong." Changwu still had a smile on his face, but he spoke very humble words.
