They let the lively fat pig stand in front of the fire, and began their sacred ritual of killing pigs and eating meat, first of all, the first priority, the leader of the pig herdsmen must not be negligent, that is, to pay tribute to those mighty angels, although he could not figure out who they were, it was right to sacrifice them all together.

The swineherd, with a sensible mind, cut off the mane with a knife, and cut off the bristles from the top of the head of the fat pig with white teeth and sharp teeth, where the bristles could most thrive, and slowly cut them off in the blazing firewood.

This is a very crucial step, as a ritual, to pray to all the angels, asking them to let the clever ones return to their homes, and it is said that the bristles represent the essence of the pig, and once a pig loses its mane, it is equivalent to losing its soul.

I don't know who came up with this idea, but the person who lacks respect for those angels must be amused in his heart, and think that the person who came up with this word is simply very clever, because that bristle was basically useless at that time.

In later generations, the bristles of that place were called pig bristles, and they were a good material for making brushes, but other than that, there was no use, and the bristles were not edible, so the prospects for use were not very bright.

In the Chinese tradition of taking food as the sky, as long as something is not related to food, it is basically the end of it, and if someone studies that it is an indispensable main ingredient or even a condiment for food, it will have a bright future.

Of course, the swineherd didn't want to do so much, and all he thought of was that he would go back and grab the fattest pig's shoulder and swallow it in one gulp!

After chopping the barbecue firewood, he immediately straightened his back. Grab an oak stick from his side, aim it at the fat pig, raise his hand to strike, and smash out the soul breath of life, so that it can fly out of the pig's body.

And when the swineherd slew the fat pig, they all started together, and burned off the pig's hair, and dismembered the pig, and the swineherd cut off the flesh, beginning with the limbs of the pig, and took the flesh cut off by the head knife as a sacrifice to the angels, and put it on top of the thick fat, and sprinkled it with the eaten barley, and threw it into the fire.

These roasted meats belong to the angels, and the way to give them is to burn them thoroughly, so that those angels can smell the strong aroma of beef high in the air, so that they have a pleasant feeling.

Then they worked together to cut the remaining parts into small pieces, pick them up with a fork and roast them carefully, then remove the forks and set them up, stack them in pots and plates, and at a certain time, the elders of them would distribute them to everyone.

In a short time, the swine herdsman got up and distributed it, knowing that the food should be just, and divided all the roasted meat into seven portions, and put each portion in a heap, and set aside one of them, and then he began to recite it, and offered this portion to the little angels and Earmes by the water's edge.

The rest were divided equally, but a long loin was given to him as a sign of respect, and the fat pig cut from the white fangs stole the heart of his master.

It was then that the resourceful Rogi spoke, "May the Almighty love thee, Os, as I love thee, and that thou wilt give me good food, though I am a slump wanderer, and may the mighty angel protect thee and live a safe life." ”

Hearing this, the shepherd Oss replied, "Eat, my guest, and enjoy our food, and eat these portions." What the Almighty gives, he may not give, whether he gives or not, depends on his likes and dislikes, and there is nothing that the Almighty cannot do. ”

Then he went and cut the pork which had been roasted, and he took the cooked flesh cut off by his head knife, and once again offered an offer to the mighty angel, and then poured out the shining wine, and gave it to the smasher of the castle, and gave him the glass, and put it into his hand.

Then he bowed himself and sat down, and to his own share, Os distributed bread to the servants whom the swine herdsman had brought in himself, and who had bought from the Phines without the mistress's finance, and paid for the swineherd's own wealth with his own goods, when his master was away from home.

At that moment, they all stretched out their hands, grabbed the food in front of them, and ate it.

When they had satisfied their desire to eat and drink, they stopped eating, and the swineherd, who led them, took away the food, and they all arose, and hastened away to sleep, and they were all satisfied, for they were all full of pork and bread, and such days were short.

It was a terrible night, and there was no moonlight, and the mighty one had rained all night, and the west wind was blowing fiercely, and the wet mist was rolling, and perhaps this reduced the chances of him being seen, for he could only huddle in the swineherd's hut in such weather.

When he had nothing to do, he opened his mouth to speak, wondering whether the pig shepherd would take off his cloak and give it to him, or urge one of his companions to give his hand, because he cared for all that was for his guests.

"Listen to me, Oth, and you, his companions, if you can tolerate my rapping, I would like to boast a little!

"But now, now that the topic has been raised, I think it's better to spit it out, I hope I can return to my youth and strength, and I will be full of energy, as we did back then, under the city of Dongcheng, we planned and led an ambush.

"In that great battle, when Noji was the leader of the army, and Meraus and I, as the third leader, invited me to join the battle, and we came to the city, and faced the steep wall, and we all lay around it.

"At that time, each of us was under the gravity of the armor, and on that muddy ground, with overgrown weeds and dense shrubs, we were subjected to the harsh night, and the north wind blew strongly, and the sky was cold, and the snow flakes flew and were as cold as frost, and the ice was sealed along the edge of the shield.

"Where we were in ambush, all the people were sleeping in cloaks and shirts, and covered their shoulders with shields, and only I, carelessly, forgot to bring my capes before the trip, and left them with my companions, never expecting to feel so cold.

"I came with the army, wearing only a shining girdle and a shield, and when the night turned into the third part, and the stars moved to the other side of the sky, I spoke to Noji, pushing his torso with my elbow, who was lying beside me.

"He immediately took note of my words: 'Son of Lamech, the son of the Mighty, the resourceful self-resigning, I will leave the earth, and I will not be able to stand such cold, I have no cloak, and the power of God has deceived my mind, so that I will wear only a single garment.'" For now, I can only wait to die. ’

"Hearing me, he immediately came up with an idea, and in his heart, such a great man, who was good at speaking and good at fighting, lowered his voice, and spoke to me, saying, 'Don't make a sound, don't let anyone else hear. ’

Then he propped his head on his elbow and said, 'Listen, my friends. While I was asleep, a dream came into my head. We've been far away from the fleet, and this must be made known to our commanders.

"'Listen, I have an idea, that you would better go to the individual and report the military situation to the soul shepherd of the soldiers, and report our location to the soul shepherd of the soldiers, so that he may send more warriors out of the side of the ship and meet us. ’

Immediately as soon as he had said this, Soaz jumped up, drew his legs and departed, threw off his purple cloak, and ran all the way to the ship, and I lay down in his tent, contented, until dawn ascended to the golden throne.

"Ahem, I wish I could be as strong as I was then, so that a certain pig herder, in this hut, would give me a cloak for two reasons: to show kindness, and to respect a brave hero.

"At present, people look down on me, just because I am wearing such dirty clothes, and I myself do not have the ambition and arrogance I had back then, and I can charge first in the face of a strong enemy. ”

Hearing this, the pig herdsman replied, "Thou hast told a wonderful story, old sir, thou hast spoken aptly, and thou hast not digressed, so that thou wilt not be without profit, and thou shalt not be short of clothes, or of any other kind."

"A distressed supplicant may be expected to receive a temporary need from the hands of the living, at least tonight, and to-morrow morning you will re-clothe yourself in shabby, and we have not many clothes and shawls to replace, only one for each of us.

"But when your beloved son returns, he will give you a garment, a garment, and a cloak and send you out of the house to where you are going, wherever you are, driven by the spirit of your soul. ”

When he had said this, the swineherd jumped up, laid down his bed, threw the fur of the sheep and the goats by the firewood, and made him bend down and lie there, and then Oz covered him with a cloak of great and thick.

"The owner who had used it kept it with him as a spare garment for the bitter cold snap of the cold of the cold of winter, and he put his eyes together and slept, and the young shepherds lay beside him.

But the pig herdsman did not want to leave the herd behind, and lay down in it, and he prepared himself, and went out of the barn to inspect his herd, and was glad to learn that the pig herd was so dutiful and took care of his property, even when he was away from home.

"First of all, the swineherd took his swift sword, and on his broad shoulders, put on a very thick cloak to keep out the cold wind, and then took a huge piece of fur, taken from a fat goat, and grabbed a sharp javelin to defend himself against the blows of men and dogs.

The pig herder walked and lay down on the edge of the pen, where the fanged pigs slept, sheltered from the north wind, completely covered by the overhanging rocks.

While Noji was reunited with his faithful swineherd, the sheep-eyed angel went to find Jiming, so that he could remind the shining young man and tell the strong-hearted son that he should hurry up and return home to join his father.

When the sheep-eyed angel arrived at his destination, he found that Ji Ming was sleeping in the antechamber with the noble son of Stoll, in the palace of the glorious Merauth, and the arrival of the sheep-eyed angel was, of course, as always, not seen.

He saw that the son of Stoll was sleeping soundly, but he was full of preoccupations, and could not enjoy the sweet smell of sleep, and in the night brought by the angel, which was the time of rest, he feared for his father's safety, and thought about it for a night.

The sheep-eyed angel stood near him and said, "You should not leave your house for a long time, for now you have wandered abroad, leaving behind your possessions, and leaving your wealth to be wasted by the debauchery of the house."

"Don't let them share your possessions, eat up all you have, and make you run empty, this voyage away from home should be over!

"Know that her father and brother are urging her to marry Marcos, who has given a large number of gifts, unmatched among the suitors, and has increased the amount of money she has paid for her marriage, and is increasing her to force your mother to marry him.

"Do not let a single property go away from your house, against your wishes, for you know the woman's heart, her temperament, and her desire to increase the wealth of her husband's family, the man she is married to, the child who has forgotten her previous marriage, and the husband of her original wife, and the dead relatives, and ignore it.

"Therefore, when you return home, act and entrust all things to the maid of the house, the most trustworthy one in your opinion, until the Almighty tells you who is your noble lady, and at that time you are entrusting her of the great management of the house's wealth.

"And I have one more thing to tell you, which you must keep in mind: the strongest of the suitors are waiting in ambush, and out of hostility to you, they are in the narrow sea, flanked by the rocky peaks of Ithaca and Samos, hoping to kill you before you go home.

"However, I do not think they will do so, but it will not be long before the dirt will cover some of them, and these suitors are devouring all you have, and are depleting the wealth that your father has left you.

"You must set aside your sturdy ships, stay away from those islands, and go in the dark, day and night, and the Almighty One who cares for and helps you will bring you a gentle sea breeze to escort you all the way to your home.

"When you reach the nearest shore, the beachhead of the North Mountain, you are to send out the ships of the sea, with all your companions, and let them return to the city, while you yourself are to go first to the place where the pig herdsmen live, who watches over your herd and is kind and sincere in their affection for you.

"You may spend the night there, but order him to enter the city, and tell Luo Pei that you have returned safely, and that when you return home from Pros, you will fight openly with the suitors, and forbid them to continue to do evil in your house. ”

After saying this, the sheep-eyed angel departed, and returned to the top of the majestic Mount Catherine, and from his fragrant sleep, he woke up the son of Stoll, and moved the body of the sleeper with his heel, and said, "Wake up, Latos, and take out the horse with strong hooves and legs, and put on the yoke of men, so that you can set out on the journey back." ”

Lathoth, son of Stoll, replied: "Though you and I wish to make the journey, we must not walk in the dark night, but do not worry, it will be dawn soon."

"We may as well wait until Merauth, the hero famous for his spear, sends you gifts, puts them in the carriage, says farewell, and sends us on our way with kind words, and the guest will never forget to receive his host, and not forget his hospitality, and his sincere affection. ”

The angel of dawn soon ascended the throne of the golden cast, and sprinkled the morning light all over the earth, and Meraus, who roared on the battlefield, got up from his bed and walked towards them; when his beloved son saw this, he immediately put on his shining clothes, and dressed on his body, and the son of a famous family put on a huge cloak and put on his broad chest and shoulders, and went forward.

Standing beside his master, he greeted Merauth, and Jiming, his beloved son, spoke: "Merlaus of Jedro, chief of the people, now you can send me on the journey home, to my beloved homeland, and at this moment my heart is anxious to return home. ”

At this, Meraus, who roared at the battlefield, replied: "I will not ask you to stay here, for I know that if you wish to return, I will fulfill you, and I do not approve of the excessive hospitality of the hosts, nor do I hate the indifference of the hatred and indifference of the guests."

"I am old, unlike you young people, and I have adhered to the principle that it is appropriate to do everything in moderation, and it is not good to hasten the guests who do not want to leave, and it is equally immoral to delay the residence of the guests who are eager to return, and it is appropriate to treat the guests who stay and send off the guests who wish to go.

"Still, I beg you to wait a little longer, that I may bring you a beautiful gift, which you may put in your chariot, that you may see it for your own eyes, and that I will command the women to prepare their meals, and to feed you in my hall and in the abundance of the reserves in my house.

"My feast is honoured and honored, and is beneficial to the human body, after which men may drive far and wide over the boundless land, so if you wish to go through the hinterland of Heras and Ergos, let me go with you, I will take up my chariot and be your guide.

"We walked through the mortal city together, and no one would let us leave empty-handed, but would take out gifts for us to take with us, a three-legged pot, or a cauldron, a bronze boutique, perhaps a pair of mules, or a golden cup. ”

Hearing this, the thoughtful self-evident replied, "Molauth of Jedro, chief of the people: I prefer to return home at once, for I have not entrusted anyone with the care of my family's belongings when I go out.

"I cannot give my life because I have not found my angelic father, nor can I leave my precious possessions out of my palace without returning for a long time. ”

After hearing Jiming's words, Meraus, who roared on the battlefield, immediately instructed his wife Fleur and all the maids to clean up their meals, and in his hall, the family had abundant reserves, and since Jiming was in a hurry to return home, they would fully cooperate.

At that time, Onius got up from his bed and came to them, not far from his house, and Laus, who roared at the battlefield, asked him to light a firewood and roast the meat, and the latter listened to it.

Meanwhile, Murlaus walked out of the fragrant chamber, not alone, but was accompanied by his wife Fleur and Penseth, and they came to the storeroom where the treasures were kept, where Merlaus took the double-handled glass and told Pencestine to take the silver jar.

Lady Fleur walked to the chest of the hidden things, and stood still, in which was placed the weaver's delicate robe, made by her own hands, Lady Fleur, who was the best among women, proficient in the weaving process, lifted a collar of weaving robes, exquisite, largest, and the thinnest weavers, shining like stars, and stored at the bottom of the robe.

Then, they walked back from the underground chamber, walked through the hall, and came to Jiming, and the brown-haired Meraus spoke: "Jiming, may the mighty one who is high, the boss who blows up the thunder, fulfill your wish and send you back home!"

"I have taken out of all the treasures in the house, the finest and most valuable of all the treasures, and I will give you a finely crafted jar, a work of pure silver, with a border of gold.

"It was the work of the great angel master Stous, the king of the Nia, first a gift from the hero Demous, and on the way home I briefly stayed in his palace as a gift from him, and he gave it to me, and now I will give it to me with this precious object. ”

With that, the hero Meraus put the double-handled wine glass into Jiming's hand, and the sturdy Penseth also took out the jar, shining white silver, and placed it in front of him, and at last, the beautiful Lady Fleur stood beside him, holding a weaving robe, and called out loudly.

Lady Fleur spoke, "I also have a gift for you!, dear child, remember my Fleur's handiwork, and let your married wife wear it on that festive occasion."

"And before that, you let it lie in your home, give it to the person you trust most, and let your mother hide it for you. I want you to happily return to the country where you have lived for generations, build a strong house, and then marry and have children, and perpetuate the kingdom. ”

With that, Fleur put the robe in his hand, and the latter happily accepted it, and then Prince Latos took the gifts and put them in the basket of the chariot, and could not help but admire each gift in his heart, for these were also treasures that he longed for but did not receive.

The brown-haired Muraus then led them back to the palace, where the two young men sat down on their chairs and chairs, a maid brought a splendid pot of gold, poured out water, and placed a silver basin for them to wash their hands, and someone carried a slippery table beside them.

A well-dressed and dignified servant brought them the best bread for them to eat, and laid out many delicacies, and plenty of food, and generously laid them on the table for a son of Melaus.

Ponces stood near, cutting the meat and distributing it portionally, while the glorious son of Merauth poured out the wine and handed it to their cups, and all the guests and hosts who had been treated with it stretched out their hands, grabbed the delicacies before them, opened their appetites, and ate with pleasure.

When they had satisfied their desire to eat and drink, the glorious sons of Jimin and Stoll harnessed their horses, boarded the glittering carriage, and began their journey home through the gate and the echoing colonnade.

The brown-haired Meraus also came out, with a golden cup in his right hand, containing a sweet liquor, and let them, before they go on the road, sprinkle it with the sacrifice of the mighty angels, and it is their custom that they must do it whether it is valid or not, otherwise no one will be at peace on the road.

Meraus stood in front of the carriage and said with his blessings, "Farewell, young man, and convey my greetings to Stoll, shepherd of the people, who has always been so kind to me as a father, and in the past years we have fought together on the land of the East City at the foot of Mount Sinai. ”

Hearing this, the thoughtful Jiming replied, "Be assured, hero of the Almighty's protection, and after that we will tell you everything you have said, especially my hospitality."

"I wish I could tell myself to go back to the North Mountain, and tell him in our palace that I have returned from you, and that I have been treated with great friendliness, and that I have brought back many precious gifts, all from your uncle, Melaus, and my aunt, Lady Fleur. ”

Before he could finish speaking, a bird appeared in the sky on the right, a male eagle with a huge white goose and a tame fowl in its talons, and caught it in the courtyard in front of the house, and men and women followed and shouted.

The eagle flew over the crowd and glided to the right, in front of the horse, and everyone smiled and felt happy, and at the same time they looked at Meraus, a renowned expert on the subject, who was good at explaining these miraculous signs.

Latos, the son of Stoll, was the first to speak, and pleaded: "Illustrious Meraus, chief of the people, tell me the angel's proclamation, that the eagle has caught the white goose, is it a sign for you, or for both of you?"

Hearing this request, the war-thirsty Merauth pondered in silence in order to give a proper answer, for since he had a great reputation, he cherished his feathers, and would not speak lightly, and made indiscriminate judgments.

But at this moment, Fleur, who had a long skirt fluttering, spoke before him, and said, "Listen, listen to my explanation, according to the revelation of the Almighty, in my heart, I think this matter will become the status quo!"

"Just as the eagle came down from the mountain, which was its ancestral land, where it was born, and seized the white geese in the feeding yard, and wandered in all directions, and went through tribulations, and returned home for revenge, perhaps he had been in his home, and planned calamity for all those who proposed. ”

Hearing this, the thoughtful self-evident replied, "May the Almighty One, the chief of the angels who always blow up the thunder, keep what my aunt has just said, and make it as it is! ”

When he had finished speaking, he spurred his horse, started quickly, rushed eagerly, ran through the city, and pounced on the plains, so that the horses that were pulling shook the yoke on their shoulders at a rapid pace, and galloped forward, all day long, without resting.

It is the time like an arrow, the sun and the moon like a shuttle, in the blink of an eye from the early morning to the twilight, it is the time when the sun sinks west to the back of the west mountain, Ji Ming is anxious to return home, continue to hurry, but unfortunately did not go far, all the passages are pitch black.

By this time their carriage had arrived at Philae, and had come to the courtyard of Cleus, where the sons of Rokos, the son of Phios, had spent the night and had been treated by their masters, and had to rest there for the night.

Early the next morning, when the young dawn, with its rosy fingers, reappeared in the sky, they harnessed their horses, boarded the glittering carriage, and passed through the gates and the echoing colonnade to return home.

They soon reached the foot of the North Mountain, approaching the steep castle, and saw the mountains and rivers of their hometown in the distance, clear and clear, with the red sun on the head, and the sky high and the clouds faint.

Ji Ming said to the son of Stoll, "I wonder if you can agree with me, son of Stoll, to fulfill my wishes?

"Therefore, the prince who was nurtured by the Almighty, do not drive my horse past my ship and let me get off there, lest the good old man, out of hospitality, keep me in the palace against my wishes, for I must depart and return as soon as possible. ”

When he had finished speaking, the son of Stoll pondered how he could properly grant his friend's request to accomplish the matter, and after some weighing it he thought it was a good move, so he got off the carriage and ran toward the clipper.

Together, they galloped to the beachhead by the sea, took down the splendid gifts from the carriage, and put them on the stern of the boat, all of which were some clothes, gold, and gifts from Meraus, and spat out winged words, urging Jiming to board and return home.

"Go up quickly, my friend, and urge all your companions to board the ship, and you will finish all this before I go home with a message for the old man, and I know his temper, and my heart knows how stubborn his disposition must be.

"I know that if the old man comes to see you, he will not let you go! I also know that as soon as he gets news of you, he will come and summon you back to the palace, and I am sure that he will not come and return without your company, and he will be furious, whatever reason you may give. ”

After saying this, he picked up his long-maned steed, and returned to the castle where he lived in Beishan, and soon returned home, while at the same time he beckoned to his companion and gave an order: "Friends, all the rigging is in order, and we are on the black boat that is at rest, let us step on the board and set off for return." ”

The people listened carefully to Jiming's admonition, obeyed his orders, and quickly boarded the sea ship and sat in the oars.

At this moment, while he was busy praying, and standing by the stern of the ship, and offering sacrifices to the sheep-eyed angel, a wanderer came from the distant side of the bank, and fled from there a man owes his life.

He was a soothsayer, by lineage, a descendant of Lampus, who had lived in Loes, the mother of the flock, the wealthy of the people, and a tall and magnificent house.

But then, when Lampus fled from his own country, the strong-hearted Neleus, the proudest man of the living, took all of his possessions, and possessed him for a year.

At the same time, Rumps was imprisoned in the courtyard of Lacos, in a tight chain, and suffered terribly, and in order to take away the daughter of Nelius, the act of extreme madness, the avenging angel, destroyed the courtyard of Rinus, and made him unconscious.

However, he escaped death, drove out the moo-moo and roaring herd, and went from Phlakai to Los, where he punished the cruelty of the angelic Neleus, took the girl and sent her to his brother's house, and he himself fled abroad to the grassy land of Ergos.
