Hearing Lan Yi ask about Yulong's collection method as if she were herself, the well-informed eighth wife and second sister-in-law shook their heads, "The old people in the village don't know either, they are all curious." You see, Uncle Li Zheng said that one person from one household can be done, and I think everyone in the village has arrived. ”

At this moment, Zhao Li, who was standing on the big rock, was ringing the bell with a hammer to focus everyone's attention, "Everyone is here, let's start here." Those who carry the dragon come here, and the rest of the households come here to pay the dragon money. ”

Li Zheng ordered, and Dao Wufeng, Zhao Shicai, Zhou Sufang and the fat man walked in front of Liu Daopo. On the other side, Zhao Liangxiu and Niu Xiuyao stood next to the table where the big wooden basin was placed, holding an account book in their hands, and began to call the number.

Niu Xiuyao saw everyone coming, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Grandparents, uncles and aunts, don't worry, everyone, this is not the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to rush to the temple fair to burn incense, everyone don't squeeze the table!"

Everyone laughed, and the lady who was crowded in front of Zhou Lao raised her hand and patted the wooden table, and laughed loudly, "Yao boy, don't be blind with your eyes open, this wooden table and wooden basin can be squeezed flat!" ”

Niu Xiuyao grinned, "Aunt Li, you can't say that, this heavy rain has been raining for so long, and the wood is soaking softly, not to mention squeezing flat, squeezing can be done, otherwise why should we collect the rain dragon." Listen to me, let's call according to the household, and call which household will come and put the dragon money in the wooden basin, so as to save the chaos of pulling down who later. Brother Liangxiu, you start shouting. ”

Zhao Liangxiu nodded, opened the account book, and began to call from door to door, and after a while, more than 100 households in the village called. The dragon money in the wooden basin was also half full, Zhao Liangxiu and Niu Xiuyao checked the number again, and then carried the wooden basin under the locust tree. Packed into a red bag and hung on an old locust tree.

Jia Shi stood beside Lan Yi with Wen Xuan in his arms, and laughed in a low voice, "Tao'er, what do you say is the end of this dragon money?" ”

"Then you don't need to ask, it must be handed over to Liu Daopo to take away." Lan Yi didn't want to answer, otherwise wouldn't she be busy with this scene in vain.

Jia thinks the same way. "Everyone in the village is looking forward to stopping the rain, and this rain dragon is harvesting at the right time."

"Aunt Yao, I wanted to ask you yesterday. Is it raining so much all the way? ”

Jia shook his head, "No, it didn't rain much in Meixian, and the ground was dry." I heard the boat lady say that there is a lot of rain in the three counties near us. ”

The two were talking in a low voice. Suddenly, everyone laughed again. Lan Yi raised her head and tiptoed to look in, but she couldn't see anything because she was short, so she asked Wen Xuan, who was holding Jia's arms, "Can Xuan'er see it, what's going on inside?" ”

Jia Shi lifted Wen Xuan up, and the little guy smiled and clapped his hands, "See, see." Grandmother. Mother, Uncle Dao, they came out shirtless. There is also a red road painted on his body. ”

Lan Yi's eyes widened and she smiled evilly, she said that this grass dragon is not so easy to lift, she really wants to see what the expression of the black-faced and cold guy without Dao Wufeng is now.

"It's not too cold, but it's enough to be shirtless." Jia Shi said with a smile, "Fortunately, it didn't rain at this time, otherwise the red road painted on the body would have to be washed away." ”

Liu Daopo shook the dust in her hand, took a pen and dotted cinnabar, quickly drew a few talismans, and walked towards the grass dragon, followed by the four of Dao Wufeng.

Liu Daopo walked to the grass dragon and read loudly, "The auspicious day is good, and the Emperor of Heaven enjoys the dragon king; Soar back to the sea and protect the prosperity of the Quartet. ”

After reciting, Liu Daopo led everyone to salute in all directions, and then pasted the talisman on the dragon's claws and shouted: "The dragon king returns to the sea, get up!" ”

The four people who carried the dragon walked to the grass dragon, lifted the grass dragon in front and back, left and right, and walked out of the village.

Lan Yi, who had an excellent card position, saw the situation inside. I saw that the four people carrying the dragon were all on their right sides, showing their arms, and their faces, necks, shoulders and arms were painted with cinnabar, and their appearance looked very similar to the Australian Aborigines.

Although they are all dressed as indigenous, they present extremely different effects on Dao Wufeng and Fat Man. Dao Wufeng shows the strength of a man, and the fat man's white arms and face are matched with this mysterious red vein, no matter how you look at it, no wonder everyone laughs.

At this time, there was no laughter, and all the people, both the dragon bearer and the people who followed it, were religiously silent, praying, hoping that the rain would soon stop.

The procession carrying the grass dragon went east out of the village to the edge of the flower stream. Liu Daopo shook off the dust, and sang loudly: "The grass and trees are scattered, and the autumn is fragrant; The dragon returns to the sea, the fairy grass is full of dragon tents, and the fairy fruit is the dragon bed. ”

Lan Yi couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth, the dragon king that Liu Daopo sang was still greedy.

After singing it three times, Liu Daopo shouted, "Go!" ”

The four of Dao Wufeng carried the grass dragon and walked into the wide flower stream, and Lan Yi shivered when he saw it, how cool it was!

In the hopeful eyes of everyone, the four of them carried the grass dragon into the stream and went down the stream to the middle of the water. Dao Wufeng and Zhao Shicai were two tall and okay, Zhou Sufang and the fat man went straight to the water and didn't pass their necks, only to hear Liu Daopo shout, "Send the Dragon King back to the Dragon Palace!" ”

The four of them let go, and the dragon king who was tied in the grass went down the river, entered the East Mountain, and returned to the Dragon Palace.

Zhao Lizheng shouted, "The Dragon King has returned to the palace, everyone is dispersed." ”

Only then did the silent crowd dare to call friends and call friends to disperse, Lan Yi wanted to wait for Dao Wufeng to go back, but Jia Shi grabbed her, and his eyes signaled that there was an old man Zhou next to her, "Let's go first." ”

After Lan Yi went over to say hello to Old Man Zhou, she followed Jia and returned home with the child.

Dao Wufeng washed off the cinnabar on his body in the water before he came out, because his clothes were soaked and sticking to his body, showing a strong line, which made the trembling fat man next to him envious.

"I said three big brothers, this is close to my house, go to my house to roast the fire and then go back." The fat man greeted.

The three of them all shook their heads, and Zhao Shicai trembled and shook his clothes, "Run back, warm." Grandma's, I knew that the dragon was going to go into the water, but we didn't do anything about it, and froze to death. ”

Before the fat man could be persuaded again, he saw his sister Jane Nelle rushing over with a thick coat, and raised her hand to put it on the fat man, "Wrap it up tightly, don't freeze." ”

The fat man hurriedly wrapped his clothes, "Sister, I'm freezing to death, has my grandma gone back, I want to drink ginger syrup, put more sugar, sister, sister......"

The fat man couldn't hear his sister's voice, but when he turned around, he saw his sister holding another piece of clothing and handing it to Dao Wufeng with both hands, and the fat man was stunned when he opened his mouth and opened his mouth.

"Put it on!" Janel lowered her head, clutching her clothes, not daring to look at the blade.

Dao Wufeng was also a little stunned, "I'm not cold." ”

"But you can't walk back like this, it's all wet." In the blink of an eye, Jane saw the villagers next to her who had not gone far looking at her and pointing, annoyed and angry, "If you are told to wear it, you will wear it, Roriba will do anything!" ”

After saying that, Jane Nier took a handful of clothes still on Dao Wufeng's body, pulled the stupid fat man and ran home. (To be continued.) )
