The god of plague, also known as the messenger of the Five Disasters, was the god who was in charge of plagues such as Zhang in spring, Liu Yuanda in summer, bells in autumn and winter in ancient China. These five plagues are the legendary evil gods who can spread plagues. In addition to respecting historical heroes such as Leitian and Fu Jian as athel Loren, the ancients also had the custom of hanging "wormwood" at the door, so that athel Loren would not come in.

According to legend, Kuang Fu's real people once took the thunder as the department, and it is also said that Emperor Wenchang once surrendered the thunder to the French platform, specializing in the duties of "collecting plague, taking poison and sweeping filth" to bless people and animals to prosper and harvest crops.

After Taoism, it evolved into the plague in teaching, so Wenchang was honored as the ancestor of the plague, and Wu Wen was also honored as the plague. In the forty-fourth year of Qianlong (1779), Qiqu Mountain Temple began to worship Wen's ancestors and held autumn festivals, so the autumn temple fair rose in August.

Holiday customs:

In the long agricultural era, most residents in the southeast coastal areas of China, especially in Fujian and Zhejiang, made a living by fishing. This is a living at the tip of the vast ocean. How many fish can be caught every day depends entirely on the weather and the ocean. In order to pray for a bumper harvest and life safety, people naturally hold folk activities to worship the ocean.

In Taizhou, Zhejiang, China, there is a custom of offering sacrifices to the sea for several months-"fishing for boats in summer". As the name implies, people put boats into the sea and let them drift freely at sea.

It is generally believed that the custom of sending summer boats is closely related to the activities of sending athel loren in ancient times. People should put all plagues, disasters and misfortunes into the ship. The farther the ship floats on the sea, the better, and the best outcome is never to return. Once the ship floats back, it is considered a bad omen.
