Chapter 688 The Evil Spirit is Me
The next day dawned.
The room was filled with the aroma of mixed herbs, which was very fresh and pleasant.
"Today we are going to eat grass dumplings. Young master, please get up and have a taste. There are sweet and salty ones. The sweet ones are filled with sesame and sugar, and the salty ones are filled with fresh meat and shallots. After eating, we will go out for a parade."
"Dongling's Exorcism Festival is different from ours. It's a good opportunity to experience the exotic festival atmosphere." The maid helped Lu Chaochao change into new clothes.
"Parade through the streets, even if it means going home!" Shanshan smiled happily.
Lu Chaochao looked at him hesitantly: "How about, forget it? Actually, there's no point in parading in the streets..."
Shanshan frowned and grabbed her hand, pleading: "Play, play... I want to go. Let's go together..."
Lu Chaochao sighed helplessly and took him out.
Shanshan looked left and right, she was so happy that she couldn't express it in words. Zhuifeng followed her from a distance and didn't dare to leave.
"Buy a door god. The door god will protect the family and keep evil spirits away from entering."
"The door gods painted with black dog blood are very spiritual."
There were many portraits hanging on both sides of the road. When the maid saw the young master stopping, she paid for a few and took them back.
"Why are they carrying rotten cabbage leaves and rotten eggs?" Lu Chaochao pinched her nose, looking disgusted.
"A reserved activity on Dongling Exorcism Day."
"Use firecrackers, rotten eggs, rotten cabbages, small stones, etc. to drive the evil spirits away and burn them next to the fire. It means to drive away the evil spirits, and the evil spirits dare not invade." The maid explained carefully behind her.
Lu Chaochao nodded, and followed the people to stand on both sides of the road, leaving a long passage in the middle.
After a while, the sound of firecrackers was heard in the distance.
There were also sounds of children chasing and cursing.
Shanshan's little face turned red with excitement: "Hug, hug...Zhuifeng hug me. I'm short and can't see." He stamped his feet in anxiety.
Zhuifeng picked him up and carried him on his shoulders. Shanshan saw from a distance that a statue was being pulled over on a ox cart.
The statue was as black as ink, about the height of a human, with an ugly face, and it was horrifying to look at.
As the ox cart approached, rotten cabbage and stinky eggs were thrown at it from all directions.
The foul smell hit her in the face and Shanshan yawned.
"To drive away evil spirits..." The old man lit up a firecracker and threw it directly at the feet of the statue, and it exploded with a crackling sound.
The rotten eggs hit the statue's face, making it dirty and smelly. Shanshan watched with laughter, feeling very happy.
"Come here! Let me come here!" He clapped his little hands.
Mai Feng had been squatting at the street corner, holding a ladle and pouring water on the statue.
The foul smell spread instantly, and everyone covered their mouths and noses and stepped back: "Whose naughty child is this? It stinks!" Mai Feng quietly hid in the crowd, hiding his merits and fame.
Shanshan grinned with joy.
Lu Chaochao was shocked and looked at him with a hint of disbelief: "You...you did it?"
Shanshan puffed out her chest and said proudly, "Of course!" Haha...
He felt that it was not enough, so he struggled a bit and slid down from Zhuifeng's shoulder. He followed the ox cart with his short legs, and chased the statue with small stones together with a group of children.
Lu Chaochao couldn't stop him and could only let Zhuifeng watch him and let him do whatever he wanted.
It was still a bit chilly at first, but I was sweating profusely from running.
When Shanshan returned home, the little guy's cheeks were flushed with excitement.
"Are you having fun today, young master? You look tired and sweating. Go wash up and change your clothes. Be careful of catching a cold." The wet nurse had already ordered someone to boil a pot of mugwort water. As soon as Shanshan returned home, she stripped him naked and threw him into the bathtub.
After washing, I smell like medicine all over.
New door gods have been pasted on the front door, and portraits of gods are posted on the windows.
Shanshan yawned, didn't even eat dinner, and fell asleep on the table.
"Forget it, don't wake the young master. He must be exhausted today. I'll warm the porridge on the stove so he can eat it anytime when he wakes up." The wet nurse carried him into the house, tucked in the quilt for him, closed the doors and windows, and then left.
A little maid was left waiting outside the door. It was just getting dark and the young master would probably wake up from his sleep.
Shanshan was in a deep sleep, and felt as if her soul had left her body, but also as if it had never left, and she had entered a strange and weird state.
He seemed to hear many curses in his ears, telling him to get out and never set foot on this land again.
Shanshan heard the gurgling sound in her ears again, like the sound of wheel wheels.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself trapped in a pitch-black place.
He was surrounded by malice from all sides.
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking air in my ears. Something was thrown straight at him... Baji...
His face was wet, as if something had shattered on it.
The strong stench made him vomit.
Before he could react, his five senses instantly reached their peak. He seemed to be in a crowd, with everyone surrounding him and throwing rotten eggs and cabbage at him.
Shanshan opened her eyes wide in shock! !
What frightened and despaired him the most was that he could smell the stench of feces and urine from a distance.
No no no no...
"Ugh..." Shanshan was trapped inside the statue and heard the childish voice.
"Throw feces at me." Aww... If he were given a chance to travel through time, he would really like to go back and slap himself to death during the day.
Shanshan's soul followed the statue all the way and watched himself being pushed into the fire pit.
There were sounds of applause and cheers everywhere.
Shanshan kept struggling in the statue, and finally, a crack appeared on the statue. Shanshan suddenly woke up from the nightmare...
He got up in fear and touched his face in horror. There were no rotten eggs or rotten cabbage.
He bent down and smelled his sleeves. There was no manure, only the fresh fragrance of grass and trees.
The little guy sat on the bed for a long time before he reacted.
As he sat there, he recalled how his sister had looked at him with an unspeakable expression on her face during the day, and he finally understood! !
On the day of exorcism, we should exorcise those who are kind-hearted! !
He actually came up with a bad idea and threw shit on himself!
The more Shanshan thought about it, the angrier and sadder she became, and she burst into tears. He had never been so helpless in his life...
Clang.
The maid hurriedly opened the door: "What's wrong? Is the young master choked by a nightmare? Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..." The maid picked him up and patted his back to comfort him.
She had never seen the young master so terrified and helpless, as if the sky was falling.
When the wet nurse rushed in, Shanshan was sobbing, feeling very aggrieved.
"Stop crying, it makes you feel bad." The nurse didn't know why he looked so broken-down. She took Shanshan and wiped away her tears.
When he touched it, he found that Shanshan's body was burning hot.
"Oh, go and call the imperial physician. Why do I feel so hot all over when I wake up? I'm afraid I have a fever." The wet nurse did not dare to be careless and immediately sent someone to call the imperial physician.
Sure enough, the little guy's face was red, and I don't know how long he had been feverish.
"What's wrong, Shanshan? Did you dream about something sad?"
"Dreams are all fake, don't worry."
The maids and nannies all surrounded him. Shanshan lay on her wet nurse's shoulder without saying a word, her little face full of despair.
When Lu Chaochao walked in, she saw his dejected expression.
She almost laughed out loud.
Shanshan looked at her sadly, tears falling again. It turned out that I was the evil spirit!
Woohoo……
PS: Sorry for being late. My child did not pass the physical examination at kindergarten. I took him for a re-examination yesterday. It took a whole day.
