The ranking has dropped, everyone will collect and support it, thank you.

In the early morning, the sky was just bright and there were still stars in the dark sky. Li Jiahao got up and washed up. Today he was going to go up the mountain to worship the gods. Although Li Jiahao was an intellectual and did not believe in the sayings of ghosts and gods, in the remote mountain village of Litang Village, the mountain people still believed in ghosts and gods. Under such influence, Li Jiahao still held respect and piety.

After washing up, I brought Xiaodian and Xiao Whirlwind to Aunt San’s house. Aunt San and Grandma had already gotten up. Aunt San brought some fruits, while Grandma brought walnuts, peanuts, candies, and some essentials for worshiping God, incense, candies, yellow paper, ingots folded with paper, etc.

Li Jiahao carried a big bag of things and started going up the mountain. The spring morning was still a little cold. A gust of wind blew, and Li Jiahao tightened his clothes and continued to march into the mountain with small dots and small whirlwinds.

The green mountains in the distance were shrouded in a faint cloud, which seemed so mysterious. The weeds were chirping from them, and the wild flowers on the roadside were fragrant. Walking on the mountain road of worship, weeds and vines were everywhere. Because no one had cleaned them for a long time, the dewdrops wet Li Jiahao's trousers. Xiaodian seemed to be back at her parents' home, running around. The little whirlwind saw Xiaodian running around and ran around. The two little guys were soaked and covered with weeds. After a while, they ran to Li Jiahao's feet and rubbed against Li Jiahao's trousers. Li Jiahao angrily scolded him several times but it was useless, "Go to you, stay away from me."

I haven't gone up the mountain to worship gods for several years. Litang Village remembers that when I was a child, I often went up the mountain to worship gods with my parents and grandparents. As long as the Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Winter Solstice, Spring Festival, and Spring Festival every year, going up the mountain to worship gods is essential. Litang Village is geographically located in the mountains, like a basin, so I worship the mountain gods more often. Because the mountain people plant a variety of crops, they worship the land gods. There are also many ponds and river bays in Litang Village, so I worship the river gods again.

On important festivals, the mountain people in Litang Village will carry incense tables, pigs, cows, sheep and other tributes, and also have to worship with drums and drums. How could the scene be so lively?

After a while, we arrived at the temple. Litang Village mainly worships three major temples, namely the Land Temple, and the Mountain Temple and the River Temple. These three major temples are arranged horizontally because they are equally important in the hearts of the mountain people in Litang Village. When the three major temples were built, they were carefully selected by Li Huaimin, the Feng Shui master in the village.

The three large temples are surrounded by mountains, each of which is higher than the other, and there is a river in front. Feng Shui Master said it is "The green dragon on the left, the white tiger on the right, the vermilion bird in front, and the black twilight behind." Feng Shui believes that the gods in the temple can bring peace and prosperity to everyone, and auspicious energy is gathered. When constructing, there must be mountains, hills, rivers, and forests on the left and right sides, surrounding them. The water of the river must be clear, preferably flowing. Water represents the meaning of long-lasting wealth and long-lasting wealth.

The meanings of the vermilion bird in front, the black wu behind, the green dragon on the left, and the white tiger on the right were represented. The ancients imagined the seven constellations in each of the four directions, namely the four animals, which are called the four animals. That is, the four animals.

The Oriental Green Dragon, the dragon has been the incarnation of auspiciousness from ancient times to the present. On the second day of the second lunar month of the lunar calendar, there is a saying among the people that "the second day of the lunar month, the dragon raises its head", symbolizing that spring returns to the earth and all things are revived.

The Western White Tiger, the White Tiger, is the god of war and the god of killing. The White Tiger has various divine powers such as praying for blessings, eliminating disasters, avoiding evil, praying for prosperity, making money and getting rich, and getting married.

The southern Vermilion Bird, and Vermilion Bird can also be said to be a phoenix or a black bird. The characteristic of heavy body from the fire is the same as the Western Immortal Birds, so it is also called the Fire Phoenix. Its singing and demeanor are the king of all birds. It can bring good fortune to the world and become a pair with the legendary dragon, so it has the idiom "Dragon and Phoenix present auspiciousness".

The northern Xuanwu is a kind of spiritual object composed of turtles and snakes. In ancient China, turtles and snakes were considered spiritual beasts and symbolized longevity.

Li Jiahao first worshiped the first land temple. The reason for worshipping the land god was that all things depended on the land. The land god was mostly used to pray for blessings, ensure peace and harvest. The three large temples in front of him were the most simple. A small house, the white walls had changed color by the years, and spiders crawled around on it. The gray tiles experienced vicissitudes, and some were broken. There were weeds in front of the temple, and some actually reached the ground inside the temple. Obviously, no one had come for a long time.

Li Jiahao took out the machete in the space and simply cleaned the weeds and rattans in front of the temple gate. He took out the incense and candles and yellow paper in the snakeskin bag to offer fruits. He lit the candle first, and chanted "Borrow light and borrow light, the whole family will be healthy." This was learned from his grandmother since childhood. He brought himself with him every time he worshiped the gods, and he would do it over time. He lit the three incenses and bowed deeply to the land father-in-law in front of him. The land father-in-law in front of him was kind-hearted, white hair and white beard, and the land mother-in-law was accompanied by him. While bowing, he was muttering, "The land father-in-law will bless me with a successful completion of the project." He knelt on the cushion, kowtowed three times, and donated several hundred yuan to the merit box.

Speaking of Land Mother-in-law, the villagers didn't like her very much. In some places, only Land Mother-in-law was the reason because when the Jade Emperor appointed Land Mother-in-law to descend to earth, he asked him what ambitions he had. Land Mother-in-law hoped that everyone in the world would become rich and everyone would live happily. Land Mother-in-law opposed it. She believed that people in the world should be rich and poor, so that they could divide the labor and cooperate to play the social function. Land Mother-in-law believed that when everyone had money, no one would carry a sedan chair for her daughter, so there would be a gap between the rich and the poor in society now.

After worshiping the Land God, the mountain god will be followed by the mountain god. The mountain god temple is different from the Land God Temple. The land temple is relatively simple, while the mountain god temple is very solemn and magnificent. Although the mountain god temple in Litang Village is very dilapidated, it is not inferior to the magnificent. The mountain god can call for wind and rain, snow and hail, and can also bless them with safety and health, and livestock. The mountain god is more likely to be angered than any kind of god. If you pass through high mountains, snow ridges, hanging rocks, cliffs, primeval forests, etc., do not make loud noises or make a big fuss, otherwise it will anger the mountain god. In summer, he will immediately call for storms and rainstorms, thunder and lightning; in winter, it will bring wind and snow, and the mountains collapse and the earth will break. Therefore, the mountain god is respected as a miraculous god, and they all respect and fear him.

A couplet was written on the side of the red and black temple gate, "The intersection of Songhu Lake is filled with spiritual light, and the crane lie on its slept with dragons gathers true energy." The mountain god in the temple sat solemnly and coldly in the middle, with a ferocious and exaggerated face. Li Jiahao took out the incense candles and tributes, burned the incense, donated some money, and then came to the door of the last River God Temple.

A long time ago, people could not foresee the destruction of water and the disasters of water, and it was even more difficult to avoid, turning fear, awe, expectation, and prayer into faith and worship. Where there are many waters, there is a saying of the river god. After someone falls into the water, he prays to the river god, and the river god will rescue the fallen water. Of course, this is impossible, but this fully demonstrates people's respect for the river god. There are many names for the river god, some are called Hebo, some are called Bingyi, Wuyi, and Fengyi.

The River God Temple in Litang Village is smaller than the Mountain God Temple and larger than the Land Temple. There is a white-bearded old man standing inside, with a human face and a big carp in his arms. Li Jiahao walked in, took out the incense and tribute to worship, and prepared to leave.

Xiaodiandian and Xiaozhang ran to where they went, and he didn't want to care about it anymore. He brought these two things with him to pretend that they were making trouble. Li Jiahao shouted as he walked: "Xiaodiandian, Xiaozhang, where have you been going, you are back home."

When Xiao Diandian and Xiao Tornado heard Li Jiahao's call, they ran out of the grass together, with weeds and leaves all over their bodies. Looking at these two naughty things, Li Jiahao was so angry, but after all, they were two small animals, they liked to play and did not blame them too much.

I walked home with two small things and saw a lot of Houttuynia cordata on the side of the road. I took out a small spatula for space and dug a lot of Houttuynia cordata.

Houttuynia cordata is also known as the root of the ear, the root of the severity of the dog, and the herb with fishy smell, so it is called Houttuynia cordata. Although Houttuynia cordata is not very smelly and not very delicious. As the saying goes, "a good medicine is bitter and good for diseases." Houttuynia cordata is still of high medicinal value. It has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, relieving phlegm and eliminating pus and eliminating carbuncles, promoting diuresis and reducing swelling. After picking a piece of Houttuynia cordata, I picked a lot of them. Li Jiahao put the dug Houttuynia cordata in the space and took it home to cook.
