"The Piaoxiang drunk in Taishan County is mellow and refreshing. I couldn't help but drink half of it just now! The Mu Shou Festival can be held this time, thanks to the great help of Mr. Boning and Mr. Ji Xue! The war situation in Dongguan County is so tense now, and the supplies It is also very scarce. We are a little bit flattered that these three gentlemen specially prepared this ceremony for our tribe!" Sha Zha Xiangru is very talkative. He has been presiding over the migration of Baekje people before. With the migration of Baekje people one by one, The Ji people came to Jiyuan.
Upon hearing this, Man Chong and Zang Hong turned their attention to Qin Jixue with a smile. It was Qin Jixue who strongly advocated organizing the First Mu Festival for the Baiji people. Originally, Jiyuan County had just been captured, and with the war in chaos and lack of supplies, who would have the time to celebrate any festival.
But now seeing the Baekje people jumping for joy, the two of them immediately understood the far-reaching significance of Qin Jixue's hosting of this festival.
Qin Jixue heard the words and said with a smile: "Master Shazha! The brothers and sisters of the Baekje tribe migrated long distances, passing through bandit areas and going through hardships along the way. We will be a family in the future. This is a major event for the people of Jiyuan to welcome the Baekje brothers. You are so That’s not true! How is the festival going now?”
Hei Te Changzhi also changed from his previous coldness. Hearing this, he said with a smile: "We have stacked the sacred fire tower on the river beach more than ten miles south of the city. The young chef is actually proficient in Baekje's special cuisine. I have asked my tribe to help him prepare the banquet, and I plan to invite all the people in Yiyuan City to participate. We will sing and dance tonight, and we will not return until we are drunk!"
Man Chong and the others asked about the preparations for the banquet. Sha Zha Xiangru smiled and said: "According to the custom of our clan, starting from this morning, the clan members washed in the river, which means that one year has passed and this year is new, so we will start preparing for the banquet at noon. , and in the evening there will be a God-sacrifice dinner with singing and dancing. With the fine wine and food brought by the Mandarin and the team of chefs, tonight will be the most sumptuous Mu Shou Festival I have had in the past five years. Of course, the only regret is that there are no costumes!"
When Qin Jixue heard about the banquet, he was also beaming. After all, this was a banquet hosted by him. He clapped his hands and said: "General Sha Zha, there is no need to regret it. From now on, we can hold the Mu Shou Festival every year. From now on, we will have a carnival in Yiyuan City on this day. I guarantee that It’s more lively and gorgeous every time, and I’ll surprise you every time!”
Upon hearing this, Sha Zha Xiangru came over and put his arms around Qin Jixue's shoulders and said, "Everyone has heard it. From now on, brothers Jixue are not allowed to break their promises. I heard that brothers Jixue haven't married yet. The Mu Shou Festival banquet has always been my Baekje youth." There is a grand dating event between men and women. If there is a girl from my clan who falls in love with you tonight, I can teach you my experience in chasing girls!"
Qin Jixue was still a young man, so he could withstand the dirty words of this old gangster, so he immediately shook his head to avoid it.
Man Chong, Hei Te Changzhi, and Zang Hong all laughed heartily when they saw this. At this moment, Qin Jixue suddenly had an enlightenment, and the gap between them and the Baiji clan was greatly reduced.
…
As the sun sets over the western mountains, the south of Yiyuan County is crowded with people. Like a tide, people flock to the open space on the river beach. I heard that the newly arrived Baiji tribe will worship their gods here.
Rumors abound in Dongguan County about this foreign tribe. There are even rumors that the Baekje tribesmen are evil spirits summoned from hell by Qin Ge. They are murderous and bloodthirsty, like ferocious beasts.
Although many people are afraid, they are more curious. Of course, the most attractive thing is that at tonight’s god worship party, you will enjoy Baekje’s special delicacies for free. You can eat and drink for free. People around Yiyuan County bring Families came with their mouths and heard the news.
Among the lively and noisy crowd, a figure followed the people. This person was Hu Sanniang, who was disguised as a woman.
She could not let go of her disastrous defeat at the hands of Hei Te Changzhi that day.
In the past few days, Hu Sanniang sneaked into Yiyuan County to find out the news.
Today's Yiyuan County is very lively. A public trial is being held in the past few days. People from all over the country have come to join in the fun. It can be said that the event is unprecedented.
There is no such scene in today's troubled world. In a trance, Hu Sanniang, who came to a different world, even felt like returning to Hujiazhuang in the past. Lanterns, candied haws, and vendors, she seemed to think of her parents and elder brothers, but everything turned into the village. Fire and corpses everywhere.
This was the first time since Hu Sanniang came to Liangshan that she thought so intensely of the long-dusted Hujiazhuang. She wanted to escape here, but she was obsessed with everything here. In the past few days, she wandered aimlessly in the city and seemed to have forgotten it. She comes to see Heijia Changzhi for a duel.
When we arrived at the river beach, we were already crowded with people watching the excitement. On the river beach, there were fires as tall as one person piled up with firewood every ten meters. Standing in front of the fires were Baekje tribesmen and people maintaining order. sergeant.
At this time, Qin Jilian was leading his soldiers to maintain order, and even built a temporary hut not far away to provide convenience for the people.
Qin Jilian was holding a large iron trumpet and commanding the troops at the top of his lungs. He divided the chaotic people into groups and asked them to sit around the fire in groups of 100. Unexpectedly, the number of people who came to participate in the party ceremony was far more than expected. .
Hu Sanniang followed the people and sat casually on a simple straw mat in front of the firewood pile. An altar made of wood had been set up in the middle of the river beach. The altar was more than ten meters high and some simple straw mats were set up around the altar. .
On the straw mat, Man Chong, Zang Hong, Qin Jixue, Chai Jin and other distinguished guests were seated in sequence. Accompanied by Hei Te Changzhi, Sha Zha Xiangru, Gu Shi Fuxin and a group of Baiji elders, they were seated around the altar. Exchange pleasantries.
It's just that Qin Jilian and the soldiers who maintained order were so tired that they were sweating profusely and kept running and shouting to maintain order.
Man Chong and Hei Te Changzhi were sitting side by side. Seeing so many people participating, Hei Te Changzhi was also a little excited and said: "I didn't expect that there would be so many Han people to support me. Looking at the scale, there are 130,000 to 40,000 people." People around!”
Man Chong said half-jokingly: "It's a pity that there is not enough wine! General Black Teeth and your Nether Feather Cavalry have become the heroes of Yiyuan. We Han people respect heroes! But if you do this today, you must drink Piaoxianglou down!" "Everyone clapped their hands and laughed after hearing this.
The young master was wearing a chef's uniform and was fatter than before. He smiled and said in Korean: "I am the chef for Lord Heiji Changji and the warriors of the Baekje tribe. So what if I eat all the food? For today's banquet, I have been studying cabbage these days, and I will make sure that you feel like you are back home. Everyone in the Baekje clan must eat and drink well tonight!"
Upon hearing this, Sha Zha Xiangru and Gu Shi Fuxin took the lead in cheering and shouting, and the place was suddenly filled with joy.
At this time, Heiji Changzhi was wearing a large black and white dress and a Goryeo style crown. The shape was similar to the costumes of the Tang Dynasty. At the reminder of a clan elder, Heiji Changzhi confessed to everyone, then got up and left. Go to the altar.
Under the auspices of a group of clan elders, preparations began for the ceremony to worship the ancestors of the Holy Spirit.
At the same time, teams of sergeants carried various delicacies to each bonfire. In addition to Baekje specialties, there was also roasted whole pig cooked by the young master himself!
Due to the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the common people all ate chaffy vegetables. Seeing such delicacies, many people even drooled. If there were no sergeants to maintain order, they would have swarmed over them.
Hu Sanniang looked at the altar. Hei Te Changzhi, who was dressed in a strange dress, was worshiping the ancestors and the Holy Spirit with a solemn expression. Under the hazy night, the scars on his face seemed to be gone. A strange charm.
Black-toothed Sang-ji was originally a famously handsome man of the Baekje tribe, but he was usually unkempt and had scars on his face. Due to the many hardships he had endured, he always had an expression of bitterness and hatred, which made people look at him three feet away. You can feel the chill.
But now the clan is living and working in peace and contentment, getting along well with Man Chong, Qin Jixue and others, and there is a smile on his face. Such a charming man has long made some Han girls feel like a deer.
Against the background of the moonlight, Hu Sanniang's graceful appearance made Hu Sanniang stunned for a moment. She seemed to have thought of something, blushed and spat: "This monster looks like a dog when it puts on human clothes!"
Hei Te Changzhi began to pray in Korean. In front of each bonfire, there was an evolver who acted as a translator and translated Hei Te Changzhi's prayers at the same time.
Mainly praying to the Holy Spirit for the Baekje people to usher in a new life after experiencing hardships. In the prayer, Heiji Changzhi kept mentioning Qin Ge, saying that Qin Ge was the savior of the Baekje people. Every year, the Baekje people also worship the Holy Spirit. Qin Ge’s kindness!
Finally, Black Teeth Changzhi stood up and said: "Let us thank Qin Ge, the savior, for giving new life to our Black Teeth tribe and giving us this banquet full of happiness and joy! Now we have invited the representatives of the Han people under the lord to give a speech, and they are also the ones who gave us a speech We’ve prepared this grand party!” All the Baekje people started cheering.
Man Chong, Zang Hong and others were stunned. After everyone looked at each other, Zang Hong smiled and said: "Jixue! As the highest officer of our Yiyuan, you represent our Yiyuan. You organized this event, so you should give a speech!"
Qin Jixue had never experienced such a scene before. The huge crowds of people made his calves tremble.
Man Chong was also in a happy mood, stroking his beard and smiling: "Show off the momentum of a man from the Qin family and let the people of Yiyuan and Baiji see the style of our Taishan people!"
Chai Jin and Yang Xi on the side also encouraged Qin Jixue.
Qin Jixue picked up the wine cup in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. He gritted his teeth and walked up to the altar. Hei Te Changzhi took the lead in applauding. In an instant, the entire party burst into applause.
Qin Jixue saw the scene of huge crowds of people. At this moment, his mood suddenly calmed down. He seemed to see that his sweat had not been in vain during these days. People of all ethnic groups were sitting together happily. Isn't that the goal he was striving for.
Qin Jixue had mixed feelings in his heart, and the applause gradually stopped. He did not think too much, and spoke from the bottom of his heart: "Today's grand event is the Baekje tribe's First Mu Festival, which symbolizes rebirth. Today is not only Baekje's The rebirth of the Baekje people is also the rebirth of the people of Yiyuan County. We have escaped from the days when bandits invaded and families were destroyed. I believe that in the future, the Baekje people and we Han people will sit together happily, regardless of each other, and work together to create a better future, just like today. A beautiful life of stability, peace, and plenty of food and clothing! From today on, we are all a family, regardless of each other, no distinction between high and low, and we will jointly run this land! Thank you everyone!"
Hei Te Changzhi stood aside and personally acted as the interpreter for Qin Jixue. When Qin Jixue finished speaking, the audience burst into cheers. Although Qin Jixue's words were simple, they were the voice of everyone. The barriers between the two peoples were also diluted at this moment. Quite a few.
