“It’s so lively over there!”

When everyone passed by Gion, they found that there were crowds of people. Xiaoya slapped her head and said, "I almost forgot!"

Seeing Ding Xu’s doubts, he explained: “This month should be the annual Gion Festival, known as the number one grand festival in the island country.”

Ding Xu's eyes lit up, and he quickly took everyone in. He was lucky to meet local specialty and customs festivals for the first time?

"Wow, there is a float parade!" Sakura looked in with her toes, and there was a float?

"This is called mountain and scepter." Xiaoya explained: "The Gion Festival, which has lasted for thousands of years, is no exaggeration to say that it can be considered the number one in the island country from any angle."

"It is known as the longest-lasting festival, the longest-lasting and the largest. Today is the previous festival, and there will be a total of thirty-three mountain and marches."

Fat Tiger Lao Zhang immediately found the location, and Ding Xu said excitedly in front of the camera: "Brother Xu is now at the Gion Festival, which is known as the largest festival in the island country!"

"See the parade behind?"

"Is it exciting?"

There were many people, and only after Baidu learned about the Heian era, people believed that ghosts and monsters were real. Onmyoji, mainly represented by Abe Haruma, was very active during that period because he was able to communicate with ghosts and gods.

During the Zhenguan period, a plague spread in Kyoto. He was ordered by the king to erect 66 sticks in Shenquanyuan to welcome and worship the gods of Gion. People sent the boys in the city to Shenquanyuan to drive away bad luck.

The scale of the Heian era has expanded unprecedentedly in the middle of the Heian era, with empty cars, Tianle, and Yuanle activities increasing, becoming more lively and prosperous.

I saw a large group of men in white sacrificial uniforms carrying various strange floats parades. Ding Xu pointed to the middle and said, "Look, my friend, that's a parade of Yamata floats."

"At the front is a group of children wearing green clothes and flowery hats on their heads to open the way!"

"The tall mountain sway is said to be the attachment of the gods when they descend from the sky. In ancient times, people believed that the mountain sway car controlled by the gods could gather evil spirits to eliminate them."

Seeing the float weighing more than ten tons being pulled forward, Shijo Karahara Town, City Hall, Karasuma Michigan, and finally arrived at Shincho Michigan.

I heard that we must circle the four main streets?

"The entire mountain carriage is spliced ​​with wood pieces. There is no rivet used in the formation process, and it is all wrapped with hemp rope."

Ding Xu added information while walking: "There are magnificent fabrics on all sides, which are gorgeous and gorgeous, surrounded by people wearing various traditional clothes."

Suddenly, a group of older children appeared, all wearing white clothes, their faces were covered with white, and there were unknown white sticks tied behind them?

What the hell is this?

The phoenix chariot that the gods rode on was just a ritual queue of about three or four hundred people from the shrine. On the way, they joined the float and slowly turned into a huge team of tens of thousands of people. The people walking in front knocked out a powerful sound with iron sticks, which was deafening.

"Look at that float!" Dog Tuanzi found something and pointed to a slowly coming lane: "There is a drum band on it?"

Ding Xu was also shocked when he saw it. There were actually more than a dozen sings and singing on the huge float?

"The corner street is ahead." Xiaoya said: "All cars need to turn 90 degrees!"

Ding Xu watched hundreds of men tied the hemp ropes as thick as their arms around their waists, shouting horns and pulling desperately!

A bgm flashed through my mind in an instant:

Sister, you are on the bow of the boat and your brother is walking on the shore

Love and love ropes are swaying

Little sister, I'm on the bow of the boat, you're walking on the shore

Our love Our love

Swirl on the rope

"Brother Xu was shocked today!"

"I have seen many float parades. The first time I saw it was just a manpower!"

"You must know that the heaviest can reach 12 tons and the maximum is 20 meters!"

"I admire you!"

Ding Xu sighed to the camera: "I am a native of the island, and I play it very well."

Lifting up and moving the mountain car with a dozen tons, you must work together to succeed every time. The cheapest thing is that the people standing in the car are also directing by waving their fans?

Can you come down and help me?

Especially when the car moves, the crowd cheers excitedly every time the car moves. Even if it fails, everyone will give them encouragement applause, and the atmosphere reaches its climax at this time.

“So many geishas!”

Geisha, who could only be seen in the flower village, appeared in rows today, of course, just put on makeup to participate in the parade, but a large group of white-faced kimono was also drunk.

There were more and more people, as if the entire Kyoto was gathered here. Everyone followed the parade and slowly integrated into the entire atmosphere, accompanied by cheers and applauses, as if they were pulling a cart with force.

"There is a grand sacrificial offering at four o'clock in the afternoon." Xiaoya sniffed and said, "You can see all kinds of antique Heian Times clothing, and rows of foal-shaped lanterns are hung on both sides of the street."

"Even the government that follows the rules will open all driving passages and enjoy the open-air stalls arranged by the roadside, especially the houses provide beer and various snacks!"

Ding Xu laughed silently. This behavior in the island country is probably only available during the festival.

"Why do they wear bathrobes on the street?" Sakura watched more and more people come out in bathrobes, and it was the first time they had seen each other in the island country for such a long time.

"This is the joy of the festival." Xiaoya said: "I can indulge in just a few days a year!"

Time passed slowly with the parade, and soon the evening came. Sure enough, various stalls began to appear on both sides of the street, including plump moray eels, octopus produced by Akashi, fried fish cakes, and these seasonal ingredients can be seen everywhere on the dining table.

Especially the Tenjinbashiosuji Shopping Street in Mone Town, where people are crowded, they taste the white-brewed moray eel, sweet and spicy barbecue, and cold dishes for octopus.

People wear simple kimonos, barefoot wooden clogs, take eight-character stalking steps, hold round fans in their hands, wander leisurely in the four streets of Tongzhan.

All of the things are composed of one of the important programs of the Gion Festival to enjoy the night view of Xiaoshan Mountain.

"Look at the fireworks!"

With a huge roar, the colorful fireworks exploded in the night sky, and then wave after wave, illuminating the whole night in a colorful way.

"This is the fireworks conference!" Ding Xu pointed to the fireworks and said to the camera: "Follow Brother Xu to enjoy this romantic life from the summer!"

"So beautiful!" Shishi was obsessed with looking up at the night sky, and literary young women could not stand the most romantic.

"Fine with the boss!" Dog Tuanzi couldn't help but sigh. Since he came to the Rising Studio, he felt that his first twenty years had been in vain!

"Well, it's really good!" Si Nan nodded. He used to think that the world was so big, I wanted to go and see it just to show off, but after the past two months I realized that the world is really big!

"Well, this eel cold noodles are delicious!"

"And this little octopus ball!"

"Hey, why don't you eat?"

Only Sakura was heartless and desperately stuffing something into her mouth. This time the three of them looked at each other and did not laugh at each other without despising them. At this moment, it seemed that the world was quiet.
Chapter completed!
