Time flies and it is approaching the end of the year, and Chi Yao once again returns to the Black Miao Department.
Before he stepped into the village, he just saw the smoke rising from the kitchen not far away, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
This good mood lasts until...
"The Holy Son has returned to the mountain——"
I don’t know how the news leaked. Chi Yao didn’t call to say when he would arrive home, but Xian Meng, Wumeng and the others stood at the entrance of the village, and started shouting loudly as soon as they saw him.
Probably to avenge the last time I was scared by him.
However, in the past six months, Chi Yao has not made any progress. At least he has spent some time with Wang Zhenqiu and has become much thicker-skinned.
Therefore, although he heard it, he frowned slightly, and even nodded lightly at them as if nothing had happened when he passed the village entrance, with a condolence expression of "Comrades, thank you for your hard work."
The casual words were good, and a slap could not make a sound. Naturally, they were making noises just to see Chi Yao embarrassed. They had even thought about how to break Chi Yao's previous move if he tried again.
Unfortunately, what they never expected was that Chi Yao stopped playing with them!
He walked in so openly and calmly, as if they didn't exist.
As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed!
Chi Yao walked home without looking sideways, and when he thought of the disappointed expressions of those people, he burst into laughter.
"Play with me? How many years have you been practicing?"
The Spring Festival is the most important traditional festival of the Chinese nation. Especially in the more ancient and closed places, the festive atmosphere is stronger. On the contrary, many more open and developed areas have become less and less like the New Year.
Miaojiang naturally belongs to the former.
Although there are still about ten days before the actual 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, the men, women and children in the village have already taken action. They are killing pigs and making glutinous rice cakes. "Bang bang bang bang" can be heard in the yard of every household.
sound.
In addition, various ceremonial items for worshiping ancestors must be prepared, and lights and colors are decorated, making it very lively.
Of course, for Gu Masters, they have another equally important activity - mountain worship.
As the name suggests, it is to worship the two sacred mountains of Thunder God and the Moon.
When people celebrate festivals, Gu will naturally celebrate them too.
On the day of mountain sacrifice, all Gu masters will gather around the two holy mountains to have fun with the Gu creatures on the mountains.
However, this year's mountain festival is slightly different from the past.
In the past few decades, the mountain sacrificial ceremony has been personally presided over by the Great Gu Master. It is divided into two halves. The Great Gu Master climbed Leigong Mountain and Moon Mountain respectively to enjoy themselves with the Gu.
But this year is different.
Because there is one more officiant.
That's right, it's Chi Yao.
This time, the Great Gu Master was only responsible for offering sacrifices to Leigong Mountain, and handed over the task of offering sacrifices to Moon Mountain to Chi Yao.
This is a clear signal - help him gain reputation in front of the entire tribe.
Standing on the altar of Moon Mountain, Chi Yao looked down at the densely packed Gu Masters of the Black Miao Tribe sitting together below, and couldn't help but feel his heart surge, and he had a thought that I have in the world.
……
……
New Year's Eve.
The crescent moon hangs high, and the cold moonlight shines between the mountains and forests. The shadows of the dancing trees are swaying on the ground, seeming to be cheering for joy.
There is a deep well in the center of Heimiao Village, which used to be the water source for the whole village. However, with the development of the times, tap water has been connected, and the purpose of this place has become single-that is, to hold village gatherings.
Around the mouth of the well, people in the village set up three bonfires, then placed fruits and snacks on the edge of the well, and sat around in costumes to watch the New Year.
Of course, you can't just sit around. The Miao people are quite good at singing and dancing. Many people spontaneously sang ancient songs and danced traditional dances.
"The sun and the moon go west, and the mountains and rivers go east. Our ancestors walked in the direction of sunset, trekking through mountains and rivers to come to the west~"
The voice is long and deep, with a hint of ancientness and desolation.
Although the song is nice, it is nothing compared to the dancing of the girls.
I saw a group of 28-year-old girls who did not apply any makeup. Against the backdrop of neon embroidered clothes, they wore finely crafted and shining silver hats, silver hairpins, silver necklaces, hanging tags, silver bracelets and other accessories, which jingled as they walked.
With jingling sounds and silent emotions, each one of them is like a fairy descending to the earth or a dragon girl flying around. Their best long-cherished wishes for the next year seem to be condensed in the dance.
Chi Yao took a closer look and saw that the girl leading the dance was actually Xian Meng.
"I really didn't realize that this girl can be so gentle sometimes."
He sighed in admiration, picked up the glutinous rice wine in front of him and took a sip. It was fragrant, sweet and refreshing.
"By the way, it's the New Year after all, so I have to send a few blessings."
Chi Yao turned around and ran home, taking out his cell phone. As soon as he unlocked it, seven or eight messages popped up in an instant.
"Haha, their movements are really fast!"
I clicked through them one by one and found that the first one belonged to Zhuge Bai.
[Brother Yao, have a great Chinese New Year! When will you come to our house again?]
Attached is a group photo of their brothers plus Zhuge Meng, Sheng, and Guan. His father's figure can be faintly seen in the distant background, and it seems that the whole village is gathered together.
"Haha..."
Chi Yao chuckled twice and raised his hand to send him a selfie, including a few young ladies dancing in costumes.
[Want to come and play with us? @ Zhuge Bai @ Zhuge Qing]
The next one is from Wang Zhenqiu. I don’t know if it’s because of the Chinese New Year, but he didn’t have a playful smile. He just sent a few words of blessing.
In this case, Chi Yao saved the trouble and opened the next post after replying.
"Oh, it turns out to be Xia He's."
Half a year later, Xia He has now become a rising star in the world, and some good people have even gradually labeled her, Shen Chong, Gao Ning, and Dou Mei as the four arrogant people who are drunk, lustful, wealthy, and wealthy. The reputation is great.
Her message contained only simple greetings, but from these few lines, Chi Yao seemed to be aware of her loneliness.
That's right, Xia He's nature is actually not suitable for all genders. In a way, she is carried by her own powers. In addition, Zhang Lingyu was irresponsible when she was young, so she has a semi-pityful nature. Quanxing was added.
However, since a decision has been made, it is natural to bear the corresponding consequences.
There was nothing Chi Yao could do about it, after all, Xia He was just a tool he used to cultivate his love Gu.
Next, there will be a series of news about You Jin, Du Ge, Hao Yi, Zhuge Meng, etc.
In the end, there was even one from Liao Zhong.
"Old Liao..."
Chi Yao looked at the simple words "Happy New Year" on the screen and felt that this was not Liao Zhong's style.
"Could it be Duo'er's hair?"
Duo'er has only started studying for about eight years, and she hasn't had time to come into contact with things like mobile phones. Moreover, the level of confidentiality in the bunker is very high, and she doesn't know many people, so she hasn't been equipped with a mobile phone.
With this in mind, Chi Yao picked up the phone, took two steps outside, and dialed Liao Zhong's number directly.
"Hey, Uncle Liao, I'm Chi Yao! Is Duoer next to you? Let her answer the phone~"
After a moment, a subtle breathing sound appeared in the receiver.
"Duo'er, did you send me the message just now?"
"Well... they say that during the Chinese New Year, you should send blessings to those you care about... I don't have a mobile phone, so I used Uncle Liao's to send it..."
A girl's voice was light and gentle, like curling clouds, coming from the microphone. Chi Yao could even imagine that Duo'er was blinking her bright emerald eyes and tilting her head to explain in earnest.
