Chapter 140: Pray for blessings and wishes, and your heart is at ease

The Double Ninth Festival is a small boat used by the people to pray for blessings in rivers, lakes and seas during the Double Ninth Festival.

The bow and stern of the Double Ninth Boat are tied with dogwood. While sailing, the dogwood plants and branches sway on the river and lake surface, which is very elegant and beautiful.

“Huh?”

Ling Rong looked at the many ships slowly sailing on the lake, and suddenly said:

"Ah? So this is the Chongyang Boat? I've heard of it before, but I haven't had the chance to see it with my own eyes. It's all because of the grandma who has restrained me and not allowed me to run around."

She asked in confusion: "But why are these small boats so small? There are so few people who can't sit in such a narrow boat."

Zhuo Qingtan smiled lightly and said, "Because these small boats are not needed by the whole family to take a boat tour of the lake, but are specially used for a very small number of people."

Ling Rong looked over and asked in confusion: "Well? As the name suggests, isn't it used to pray for blessings on the Double Ninth Festival? Shouldn't the whole family come to take the boat together to pray for blessings?

How can you sit in such a small boat? I’m afraid that even the five of us can’t sit down?”

Zhuo Qingtan chuckled and explained: "Because, the common custom of Double Ninth Festival is to climb high and look into the mountains, and plant dogwood all over the mountain to pray for blessings.

However, considering that some elderly and weak elderly people are inconvenient and unfavorable to walk, and some ladies in the deep boudoir, the ladies and girls are not suitable for showing up in public, so this Double Ninth Festival boat was found.

At that time, during the Double Ninth Festival, some people who are inconvenient to climb high and look into the distance can also take the Double Ninth Festival boat to pray for blessings."

Ling Rong nodded thoughtfully and said, "So that's it, then I understand! Simply put, those who can climb the mountain go climb the mountain, and those who really can't climb it will come to take the boat. Anyway, there are people who want to pray for blessings.

Is this what I mean by the way to realize my wish?"

She was so cute that Zhuo Qingtan couldn't help but chuckled, nodded slightly, and praised: "Lingrong is so smart."

Ling Rong smiled and said, "That's natural, who am I? I am the number one person among rabbit spirits! Oh, it's not the first demon!"

She thought about it and looked at Zhuo Qingtan and An Luofu in shock.

"It would be fine if Xie Yuci and my grandmother knew about the 'Chongyang Zhou', but you two mortals knew about it? I just don't know?"

An Luofu frowned and said, "Miss Lingrong, although my senior sister and I are mortals, we are not fools."

Ling Rong glared at him: "Mr. An Xiaolang! What do you mean? Am I a fool?"

An Luofu was speechless for a moment: "Miss Lingrong, this is not what I mean."

Ling Rong looked at him with a bad expression and said thoughtfully:

"Mr. An Xiaolang, you look loyal and honest. I didn't expect you to even criticize me?"

An Luofu looked at her helplessly and said, "It's just a silence below."

Did everyone watch them quarrel with a smile, or did Wanqing really not be able to see it in the end?

She smiled and shook her head, interrupted their quarrel, and persuaded her helplessly:

"Silly Lingrong, do you think this is something rare? I always said that I knew everything about the folk customs of the world, but I never even heard of the allusion of the Double Ninth Boat. Not to mention the two immortals, they are on the streets.

If you just pull a child, you might know what the Chongyang boat is.”

Ling Rong was speechless for a moment, and she stumbled and argued: "How can I blame me? I haven't even memorized the thousand-character text. How could I remember so many miscellaneous things?

——These mortals are the same. They have nothing to do all day long and have invented so many solar terms and festivals, either crossing mountains or wading in the water. I think they are just too idle."

An Luofu frowned and looked at her, as if he wanted to say something.

However, he remembered how difficult Ling Rong was before, and closed his mouth very consciously.

Wanqing shook his head gently: "You, you are obviously ignorant, but you are still very polite and blame others."

Zhuo Qingtan had been smiling before and was noisy between them, and then he explained:

"In ancient times, the people of the mortal world felt that mountains, rivers and lakes had spiritual energy, so they could convey their prayers and blessings to heaven, so that they could know the priests and immortals in the heavenly world, so they had many rituals.

Some are to commemorate their ancestors, some are to pray for blessings and achieve a perfect future, and some are to commemorate the martyrs of the predecessors.

For example, when climbing the mountain on Double Ninth Festival, you can plant dogwood on the water and sailing on the water to seek blessings. For example, the river lanterns placed by the people on the water on the 15th day of August on the 15th day of the previous day, the people placed the river lanterns at the water originated from this."

When Ling Rong heard this, she laughed and looked back at her.

"So I mean, these mortals are really stupid. One day in heaven, one year in the world. They have to spend so many festivals in the mortal world, and pray for so many times. Where can the gods in the heaven have this leisure time to listen to them one by one.

What is their prayer wish?

They are very busy every day! Are these mortals deceiving themselves?”

When Zhuo Qingtan and Xie Yuci heard this, they were silent.

Ling Rong's words are ugly, but the truth is that this is correct.

They were in the Ninth Heaven, and one who had been a noble emperor and one who had been a decent and majestic priest in the Temple of the Fallen Gods. Naturally, they knew how busy the many immortals and gods in the heaven were on weekdays.

Since the time between the immortals and mortals is not equal, the immortal officials in heaven have to deal with many things every day, which is equivalent to the fact that many major things accumulated in the mortal world have to be done in one day in heaven.

Therefore, there is no time or leisure to listen to the wishes and blessings of the mortals in the lower world on many festivals.

Speaking of this, Ling Rong suddenly made a fuss again.

She subconsciously raised one hand, covered her mouth, and looked at Zhuo Qingtan and An Luofu with her big round eyes.

"That. I just said 'mortals are stupid', but I'm not scolding you! The people in your immortal sect are different from their ordinary mortals, so they are naturally not stupid! Not only are they not stupid, but they are also monkey-tips."

What this said is better than not adding this explanation.

Zhuo Qingtan shook his head laughed and cried, and naturally he would not bother with her.

However, An Luofu, the only one in the private room who was a mortal from beginning to end, suddenly said:

"Miss Lingrong, this is a bad word. Ordinary people pray for blessings from heaven during festivals, and this is not a deception. In fact, many things that you want to do now, then do.

As for whether others will know, and how do you view you, what does it matter?

I pray for blessings and wishes, and my intention is to be at peace. Not only do I seek God, but I also sanctify myself.

At least, at the moment of petitioning and praying for blessings, they had hope and joy, and that would be what they wished."

When Xie Yuci and Zhuo Qingtan heard what he said, they couldn't help but look at each other subconsciously.

Both of them remembered the conversation between the Moon Worshiping Festival when they watched the mortals lanterns on the moat of Yanzhou City.

Xie Yuci suddenly chuckled.

"It's not that the family doesn't enter the family, it's really your junior brother who taught you step by step."

Even the thoughts of such things are exactly the same, very similar.

Zhuo Qingtan lowered his head and smiled, then shook his head gently.

"Luofu is a child with his own ideas, and these are not what I taught him."
