An impressive parade with over 100 vehicles wound through the streets and alleys of Wanhua while temple staff in cars sprinkled cleansing holy water to expel SARS. People held tightly to the charms and peace cookies the King of Chingshan had given out and bowed to him again and again. And they lit long strings of firecrackers in the hope of scaring away this new epidemic of the 21st century.
一百多輛車隊，浩浩蕩蕩遶行萬華區的各大街小巷，廟方人員並在車上向外潑灑除煞淨水，民眾拿到青山王發出的符咒與平安餅，不禁緊緊握在手上，一拜再拜，同時燃放長串的鞭炮，希望嚇走這場二十一世紀的新瘟疫。
