Extended information:

Since the pre-Qin Dynasty, the Laba Festival has been used to worship ancestors and gods, praying for a good harvest and good luck. During the Laba Festival, in addition to activities to worship ancestors and gods, people also have to fight against epidemics.

This activity comes from the ancient Nuo (ancient ritual to drive away ghosts and avoid epidemics). One of the medical methods in prehistoric times was to expel ghosts and cure diseases. As a witchcraft activity, the custom of beating drums in the twelfth lunar month to ward off epidemics still exists in Xinhua and other areas of Hunan.

The main content of the New Year is to remove the old and bring in the new, worship gods and ancestors, drive away evil spirits and fight disasters, and receive good fortune and pray for a good harvest. The forms are colorful, lively and festive, and have a strong flavor of the New Year, embodying the essence of traditional culture of Chinese civilization. Starting from the stove sacrifice day (dust sweeping day) on December 23/24 at the end of the year, and ending on the Lantern Festival night on the 15th day of the first lunar month or the 19th day of the first lunar month, the nearly one-month period is called the "New Year", which is what we call it now. "Spring Festival period"; if we start from the preparation of "New Year's goods", the busy period of the New Year will begin around December 15th and 16th at the end of the year.
