The third day of the third month of the Chinese lunar calendar has become a large-scale folk festival since ancient times, known as the "Shangsi Festival".
At that time, when spring comes and the scenery is bright, people go out of their homes and gather at the waterside to hold evil spirits rituals.
Exorcism means going to the waterside to wash, remove dirt, and at the same time take away the bad luck from the body, which has the meaning of praying for blessings.
However, China is a vast territory with a large temperature difference between the north and the south. In the north, early March is still a cold season, and it is not practical to wash and descale in the river.
Therefore, probably in the Jin Dynasty, the custom of splashing water on the river was changed by literati into "Qushui Shang".
In myths and legends, the third day of the third lunar month is also a very important day.
This day is not only the Christmas Day of Emperor Xuanyuan Huang, but also the day when the legendary Queen Mother held a peach party.
According to orthodox Taoism, March 3rd of the lunar calendar is also the birthday of Emperor Zhenwu, the day of the ascension of Ge Xianweng, the day of the descent of Taiyi Tianzun, the day of the descent of Beidou, the day of the descent of Yisheng Zhenjun, and the day of the descent of the Five Thunder Gods.
For shamanism, the third day of the third lunar month is also the day when the Immortal Sect was founded.
Legend has it that it was on this day that the leader of the Tongtian religion founded the Jiejiao religion, allowing furry animals to attain Taoism through practice, accumulate merit, and rank in the immortal class.
Therefore, many immortal family halls in the world choose to open their doors and set up halls on March 3, ride horses down the mountain, sit in the human world, and accumulate merit.
Therefore, March 3rd became the Christmas day of the Immortal Family, and the Shaman Church held a Great God Meeting.
However, the Jin family generally does not participate.
After all, the great shaman of Changbai Village is completely different from traditional shamanism in terms of his relationship and status with the Xian family.
Changbai Great Shaman, in fact, his real professional title should be Changbai Mountain Mountain God Priest.
It's just that the person chosen by Hu Buran was Nurhaci, and Nurhachi happened to be a Manchu, and Shamanism is the main sect believed by the Manchus. In addition, other mortals did not know the power of the gods. They only saw that the Jin family could control the immortal family, so they Mistakenly thinking that they were disciples, they gradually became known as shamans.
However, on this day, Changbai Village will also hold a grand banquet for immortals, inviting all the immortals in Changbai Village to participate to celebrate another year we have walked hand in hand, and then look forward to the future.
However, since the death of ancestor Alin. Changbai Village has not held an immortal banquet for five years.
This reopening of the Immortal Banquet is not only to announce to the Beyonders in the entire Changbai area that the Great Shaman of Changbai has officially entered the "social circle", but it is also the first time that Yun Shu has served as a "boss" since he succeeded the Great Shaman. Meet with nominal subordinates.
It was different from the previous meeting with the younger generation of the five Changbai fairy families, Hu Jianjia, Huang Xianlang, Mang Shanhe, Cinderella and Bai Diandian.
This time, Yun Shu personally wrote the invitations, and Tu Xie, who was originally Tu Xie's bow weapon spirit but later transformed into a demon, cultivated and even became a golden elixir for some reason, personally delivered it to the heads of each immortal family.
In addition, Yun Shu also invited the Lingwu host from Wanghe Temple; the two brothers Changsheng and Weiwo from Zhenlong Temple; and the few remaining great demons and monsters in Changbai Mountain after the God-killing War. The hidden ghost king.
In order to hold this banquet, the entire Changbai Village and all the outer disciples who were lucky enough to receive the teachings from Yun Shu participated in it. It can be said that the rich contributed money and exerted powerful efforts.
Not to mention, it has invisibly strengthened the cohesion of the disciples inside and outside Changbai Village, which can be regarded as unintentional.
