Seeing that Gao Zhijian seemed really anxious, Zhao Wu, who was driving the carriage, said: "Stop teasing him, little dog. If you really want to tease Ji Yan, I'll give you a stick."
"Senior Brother Li, it looks like a wedding is being held inside. Why don't you go and have a look? Everyone in the village should be there."
Li Huowang raised his head and looked at the sky with the setting sun like fire, nodded, and walked towards the village with a group of people. "The folk customs in Hou Shu are really strange. They actually get married at dusk."
"Senior Brother Li, we will get married soon!"
"Really? Why?"
"No reason, it's always been this habit."
While chatting with them, Li Huowang slowly explored the inside of the village.
It was not difficult to find the home where he got married, because some villagers carrying rice and eggs in buckets gave Li Huowang directions.
It's not just rice and eggs, there are also live chickens and lambs in the basket.
Compared with the former, the latter's face was obviously brighter, and he walked deliberately slowly, and the pole shook more, as if he was showing off to others.
Following these people, Li Huowangzi quickly found the home where he got married.
The two stone lions at the door prove that this home is different from others in the village.
The two people who were greeting guests with smiles at the door saw Li Huowang and his group and hurriedly came to greet them. "Guys, just leave the carriage at the door. The younger one will keep an eye on it for you."
After learning that Li Huowang and others were escorts and looking at the escort list, the two men instead of being wary, instead enthusiastically pulled them to sit down.
It seems that for them, the more people who come when they get married, the more respect they have.
Regarding the identity of the escort and this unexpected effect, Li Huowang felt more and more that he had made the right choice to escort him.
However, the fact that the other party can do this may be related to the fact that their dress is very normal. In order to resist the wind and sand, most people here wear hats and veils.
If we were in Siqi, it would be absolutely impossible to invite a group of people wearing black gauze hats to sit down.
Sitting cross-legged at a small table, Li Huowang first took out his chopsticks, took a small piece of each dish, and secretly handed it to the steamed buns under the table.
Although it was a bit ugly to do this, it didn't matter to Li Huowang that he was thick-skinned. He was more afraid that this village was a bandit den and that the food was laced with sweat medicine.
I have survived all the other messy things. It would be interesting if I failed in this matter.
When I came over for a while, I saw the steamed bun licking his face and wagging his tail as he lay on top of me, wanting more food.
Li Huowang nodded towards the others. "Eat."
Those who had traveled a long way along the way saw the delicious food on this table. At this moment, everyone no longer cared about the appearance of the food, and started gobbling it up one after another.
Li Huowang didn't touch the food. Instead, he picked up the thick tea next to him and drank it.
The blisters on his mouth, for him who has enhanced his perception, are like being punished every moment. He just wants to get rid of this fire as soon as possible.
However, the cuisine of Houshu is very different from that of Siqi, that is, there are very few vegetarian dishes.
Most of them are meat and milk, as well as baked buns and jujube steamed buns.
The only vegetarian dishes were dried fruits and tea on a beautiful plate. Li Huowang had very few choices.
"Zhao Wu, try these baked buns! These baked buns are really good! Crispy on the outside and fragrant on the inside! Very delicious!"
Not everyone cares about eating. Bai Lingmiao stretched out her white neck and looked curiously towards the door.
Watching the bride covered with a red hijab help her down from the wedding sedan.
At this time, the handsome young man with sword-shaped eyebrows on the side knocked the gong in his hand hard and shouted in response: "The bride is coming in! Money is rolling in!!"
"Okay!!"
Seeing everyone else standing up and applauding, Li Huowang nudged Gao Zhijian, who was devouring food next to him, with his elbow, and stood up as well
"哐~" The gong sounded again,
"The bride is ruined~! The bride is booming~!!"
"Okay! That's good!!", the lively atmosphere in the whole yard became more and more festive.
"哐~!!"
"The bride's saddle is broken~! Good fortune and peace~!"
Looking at the cheerful smiles all around, even Li Huowang couldn't help but feel better.
Then he saw the strong envy in Bai Lingmiao's eyes.
He reached over and squeezed her soft hand. Bai Lingmiao turned around and gave him a reassuring smile.
"Senior Brother Li, others have given gifts, should we also give gifts? This is not rude."
"Okay, you have the final say."
"We can send you some specialty preserved fruits. We don't have that kind of thing here. Even if it shows our sincerity, it won't cost much money."
Just when she said this, the fourth gong sounded again. "Blessed~囍~神~!!"
"What!?" Li Huowang could hardly believe his ears. "What did he say goodbye just now?"
In his opinion, the lively and warm atmosphere around him disappeared instantly, and a biting cold instantly enveloped Li Huowang's body.
"Senior Brother Li, they just said they were worshiping God." Sun Baolu, whose mouth was stuffed with mutton, repeated.
In Li Huowang's shocked eyes, the newlyweds were welcomed into the lobby by their relatives who laughed and laughed. They knelt down and worshiped in front of a round red character "囍" on the wall.
The smiling young man was about to strike the gong when he saw Li Huowang in the crowd, and his expression became a little ugly.
"Second brother! What are you looking at! Hit the gong quickly!" Hearing the groom's low voice and urgent reminder, the young man raised the gong hammer wrapped in red cloth and struck it hard.
"哐~~" The harsh gong sounded again.
"Hou Qiao, the eldest son of the future, is very happy to marry Luo Tian as my daughter-in-law! The bride is wise and dignified, and I hope that God will bless the family with prosperity and prosperity! Give birth to a precious son soon!"
"Haha! Okay!!"
The atmosphere reached its climax at this moment, everyone was smiling and clapping their hands.
Seeing the groom and the bride entering the side door, the others gradually sat down to eat and discuss.
This made Li Huowang, who was standing there alone, look particularly abrupt.
After feeling someone tugging on his sleeve, Li Huowang's face became a little ugly and he sat down again.
According to the information he had received before, the God of Death is some kind of existence that is more terrifying than the God of Joy. Maybe he is one of those things hidden behind Bai Yujing.
It is undoubtedly very ironic that such a being has become a god who protects red events.
Although I don’t know where the custom came from, it is certain that these worshipers have no idea what they are worshiping!
"Senior Brother Li, what's wrong? Nothing happened here. Why do you look like this? Are you... sick again?"
Li Huowang glanced at the talking Gouwa and pointed to the huge round red thing on the wall. "Do you have to worship that thing when you get married in other places?"
