Liang Liang also depends on the time, which is determined according to the owner's birth date. Xiao Laosi's family has set a Mao hour.
When the beams were being laid, more than half of the entire Xianjiqiao brigade came. There was a dark crowd everywhere inside and outside the house.
Xiao Laosi’s maternal wife brought two loads of melon seeds, peanuts, popcorn, various candies, glutinous rice cakes, pig faces and pig ears and other dishes to go with the wine.
Before the beam is put on, the master carpenter must "dispel evil spirits" to drive away evil spirits and support righteousness. When dispelling evil spirits, incense paper must be burned, and three animals, wine and wine must be displayed for sacrifice, in memory of Immortal Lu Ban, the ancestors of the past dynasties, and the ancestors of the host family.
Xiao Dajiang caught a red rooster in his hand and pulled the feathers under the rooster's neck while reciting the curse to dispel evil spirits. Xiao Laosi's two sons kept setting off firecrackers, the sound of roosters and firecrackers, all started together, shaking
Heaven and earth move.
Xiao Dajiang opened his throat and sang loudly: "This chicken is not an extraordinary chicken. It is born with a high head and a strange tail. It wears a fish-scale gossip hat and colorful dragon and phoenix clothes. It walks in front of Luban Hall during the day and crows in front of Luban Hall at night. Luban will
It has no other use, so I gave it to my disciple as a chicken to dispel evil spirits. This chicken has a little red on its head, and I use it to dispel evil spirits from heaven. There is a flower on the head of this chicken, and I use it to dispel evil spirits from the five directions... The blood of the chicken falls to the ground, and there are no taboos.
Congratulations to the host and good luck!"
After the evil spirits were removed, firecrackers went off together. Amid the laughter of relatives and friends, Xiao Dajiang led the Taoist Priest to start raising the beam. During the Liang Liang ceremony, the Taoist Priest began to sing "Song of Praise for the Liang": The day is auspicious and the time is good, the heaven and the earth are open. Congratulations to the Lord.
, When building a beautiful hall, don’t look at this house, just look at this beam. This beam, this beam, where were you born and where did you grow up?... God listens to the wizard, but wood listens to the craftsman. Three hundred years ago, there will be another.
Five hundred years of hair, one hair is a thousand years, congratulations to the Lord, may you be prosperous and wealthy for thousands of years.
The little Taoist priest is only a few years old, but his voice when singing "Song of Praise" is loud and childish, which gives the song a unique flavor.
"The little Taoist priest is really good at singing. This song of praise is no worse than that of the old master."
"That goes without saying. The Taoist priest has great Taoist skills. The last time Xiao Guilian's house was haunted, it was him who caught the short-lived ghost. I think he can sing even better than Da Jiang. In the future, when you go to Liang, you must call Xiaodaozhang.
"
"I don't know what the old Taoist priest was thinking, why did he let the young Taoist priest come down from the mountain to learn carpentry?"
"This is not simple. Nowadays, burning incense and worshiping Buddha have become feudal superstitions. When someone in the brigade dies, everyone holds a memorial service. No one invites Taoist priests to do the monastery, and no one goes up the mountain to worship the gods. If the old Taoist master is still unreasonable, I guess he will
I'm going to starve to death."
"It's not like they will starve to death. The old Taoist has opened a field on the mountain. The food should be enough to protect the master and the disciples. It's just that the Taoist priest wants to give the little Taoist priest another way to make a living."
"The people in the brigade wanted to find Dajiang to become their disciples, but Dajiang refused to accept anyone. In the end, he accepted the little Taoist priest. I really don't know what he was thinking."
"The Dajiang family is just a girl's family, and they don't have a son. Who in the group is willing to marry their son into another family to be humble? The little Taoist priest is different. He is an orphan after all. When the time comes, he will marry into the Dajiang family.
Dajiang is like picking up a son for nothing."
At this time, Xiao Dajiang also began to sing: "Business, hurry, hurry, the master invited me to come to the beam. Mounting the beam is not a feudal superstition, this article has been written since ancient times. The hall has four corners, the son has great merit, and the emperor
Heroes are born from generation to generation. Stepping in the hall, looking around, relatives and friends stand on both sides. The old ones live longer than Nanshan, and the younger ones live here. Heroes and men should strengthen themselves. Girls and sisters are like fairies descending from flowers. Dear young and old,
I was filled with joy. I came to the hall and looked with my eyes. Thousands of feet of silk were forged, and they were colorful and golden. It was like the Queen Mother's peach party, where the peaches and jade wine reached the nectar. If you want to eat the peaches, you have to put them on the beam."
"Good!" Relatives and friends naturally responded with praise after hearing this wonderful story.
People on both sides walked to the stairs, went up the stairs, and wanted to sing a sentence.
The path leader sang: "One step up, one step up. Pinggui fights horses to conquer the Eastern Liao Dynasty. A savior comes from the mud pond. He picks up men and horses with one shot. He is crowned the king of Ping Liao. Father and son are loyal to protect the Tang Dynasty."
"Good singing! Little Taoist Priest, you can sing much better than your master Xiao Dajiang with his duck voice. I will ask Mr. Xiao's family to leave two more yellow legs for you later." Everyone praised.
In the east, Xiao Dajiang immediately continued to sing: "Two steps up, two steps to get rich, Taibai Venus comes down to earth, left foot touches gold, right foot steps on silver, gold and silver will never leave the body."
"Little Taoist Master, can you still catch it?" Zhang Fangqing shouted.
The Taoist priest smiled and sang: "Three steps up, three stars are in the sky, a hundred taels fill the door, a true prince, the luan and the phoenix sing in harmony, the crape myrtle shines high, the eternal Great Wall"
Until the Taoist leader sang: "Ten steps up, rising up, climbing higher and higher every step of the way... The rising sun will give birth to a noble son, and the rising water will give birth to the prime minister."
At this time, Xiao Dajiang and Xiao Taoist master and apprentice on both sides had already sat down on the east and west beams. The host had prepared wine and food, and served them on a large plate. There was also a pot of good wine, cups and chopsticks. There were also
A load of cakes and pastries. After the two people on the beam have finished eating, they will throw these things down.
Of course, Xiao Dajiang and Xiao Taoist Master couldn't just sit there and eat, they also needed to sing.
Xiao Dajiang sang: "I sit on the east side and you sit on the west side. What do we want to do as a theme?"
The little Taoist priest continued: "You sit on the east side and I sit on the west side, so I will use this beam as the title."
Xiao Dajiang sang: "Talk about this beam, talk about this beam, talk about this beam and its roots are long. Where is this beam born and where does it grow?"
The little Taoist priest said: "I was born on Kunlun Mountain and grew up on the head of Nine Dragons."
…
Xiao Dajiang: "One cup of wine will be ordered down to Earth Mother Dragon God to receive Qi. Two cups of wine will be ordered to Heaven to bring Mr. Lu Ban down to earth. I will not order three cups of wine, but my disciple will bring it to receive the fate of the sun."
The little Taoist priest said: "After drinking wine and eating vegetables, the two of us will put the cake on the plate."
Xiao Dajiang: "Put it in a sieve, put it on a plate, and use it to worship the gods."
The little Taoist priest said: "You throw the east, I throw the west, and you will have good luck in grabbing the daddy."
When the two masters and apprentices sang to this point, they threw the glutinous rice cakes, candies, etc. into the crowd. The places with many people gathered together and the places with few people naturally took advantage.
Xilai, Hongbing, and Da Lei were standing in a room with few people. This was an agreement they had made with the Taoist Master. When waiting for the sugar cakes to be spread, they would sprinkle more sugar cakes where they were. The Taoist Master had already seen it.
The three of them took turns throwing everywhere when they were throwing, but when they threw to the place where Xilai and the others were standing, they caught a lot more food in their hands. And they were all easy-to-pick-up foods.
Xiao Dajiang and Xiao Dao Zhang naturally did not throw everything down. They threw some of the meat and vegetables on the plate and kept most of them. After getting down, they wrapped them in brown paper and could take them back. Xiao Dao Zhang left behind a plate of pig mouth and pig ears.
He didn't move, and was going to take it back to Lao Dao. This was the first time he went out to the beam with his master, so the things he brought back this time were naturally more meaningful.
