[Reporter Cai Shuyuan/Taichung Report] After 2 years, Dajia Zhenlan Palace resumed its two-year-long hijacking event on New Year’s Eve this year. The temple gate opened at 11 o’clock tonight to grab the first incense. As soon as the temple gate opened, believers flocked in. This year, Mr. Kang, a well-known noodle sausage stall operator in Miaokou, won the first incense. He also won the Dajin Mazu with a market value of 18,000. , I haven’t participated in it for 3 years. Today I made a wish to Mazu to grab the first incense, “A kind of Mazu told me to grab the first incense, so I came to grab it!”

Dajia Town Lan Palace this year's first incense event, the top 3 people can take back big, medium and small Golden Mazu (market value is 18,000 yuan, 8,000 yuan and 4,800 yuan respectively). Chairman Zheng Mingkun and others opened the temple gate to welcome the believers to enter the temple to grab the first incense sticks. Before the temple gate opened, a group of people rushed in from the side to grab the plug incense sticks, and then they were stopped by the temple. The gate of the temple was officially opened, and everyone rushed forward, and finally Mr. Kang won the first incense.

Mr. Kang has robbed the first incense twice and the second incense once before, and this year he won the first incense for the third time. He said happily that he came to pay respects to Mazu every day when he came to Miaokou to set up a stall, and asked to come again this year when he greeted Mazu today Okay, "If you have a sense, come and grab it", "Stand at the middle gate today, and rush in when you see Touxiang!", he also said that these 3 doors have snatched Touxiang, and he even won against young and strong young people , he laughed and said that he is about to be 60 years old, how fast he can run, this kind of feeling "Mazu told me to grab the head, so I came to grab it!"

Yan Qingbiao said that this year is the Year of the Rabbit with great luck. Due to the epidemic, the plug-in incense activity has been suspended for two years. But remind everyone to still wear a mask. In the new year, you will be safe and blessed. I hope this year’s national luck will be better.
