Chapter 51 A Thousand Trees Bloom on a Night in the East Wind
Mu Yu stood outside the "Immortal Pillar" (transliteration, also known as the 'Oblique Ren Pillar'), aimed the camera, like a half-open umbrella, made of more than 30 tree poles, covered with birch bark in summer, and animal skin in winter, but soon the tower was completed, and the 'Immortal Pillar' that could be dismantled at any time, said: "Have you seen it, this may be the last place we see that can represent the residence of the Oroqen people, because most of the Oroqen people have slowly left the mountains and walked out of the mountains and forests that they have relied on for generations." ”
"66666, anchor, take us in and have a look!"
"I want to see more of that unique Oroqen girl!"
"I just want to see how they drink in big bowls and eat meat in large chunks!
Mu Yu smiled: "This requirement can be had! I'll introduce it to everyone right away!"
"Have you arrived, the top and left and right sides directly opposite the entrance of the 'Immortal Pillar' are reserved for people to sit and lie down, but there are strict rules. A bonfire burns in the center of the "Immortal Pillar" all day long to cook food and keep warm. Birch bark boxes containing idols hang from the tree poles behind the "Immortal Pillars", which are generally not accessible to women. ”
Immediately, a female audience swiped the screen:
"I hate patriarchy!
"Even I hate patriarchy!"
Mu Yudao: The current Oroqen people have also slowly integrated into modern society, and there is basically no patriarchal custom.
Do you know that most of the Oroqen people can sing and dance, and they sing and dance at the same time, expressing the rich content of labor life. "Bear Dance", "Bison Fighting Dance", "Tree Chicken Dance", "Iharai Dance", "Red Fruit Dance" and so on all depict the hunter's observation of wild beasts and birds and the imitation of the production process. "Circle dance" is a kind of mass song and dance with the nature of self-entertainment, in which both men and women participate, singing and dancing. The "Masquerade Dance" is a ritual dance performed by a shaman to pray for a good harvest from hunting, which is infused with religious content. ”
For the Oroqen people in the mountains, it is rare for someone to come to the deep mountains and old forests, and for Mu Yu's three guests from outside the mountains, the simple Ashku parents are of course warmly welcomed.
In just over an hour, a lunch with Oroqen characteristics was ready.
Several Oroqen neighbors in the surrounding 'immortal pillars' also came over to eat meat and drink wine together.
On the bonfire burning in the middle of the immortal pillar, there was a large iron pot hanging in it, in which a large pot of roe roe meat and wild boar meat was boiling, Ashku's mother was a chubby middle-aged woman, she smiled and fished out the boiled meat pot, and put an iron pot on the bonfire again, after boiling the water, put the processed dragon bird meat into it and said that it was hanging the dragon soup.
It is said that the meat of the dragon bird is not very tasty, but it is very delicious when made into soup.
The Oroqen people attach great importance to etiquette, and it is a tradition to respect the old and love the young. No matter what the occasion, the old man must be allowed to sit in the right position, the old man must open the cup for drinking, and the old man can only move after the old man raises his knife and chopsticks when he eats meat.
Sure enough, when the milky white dragon soup was served, Ashku's mother sprinkled a handful of pickled minced wild mountain onions on top, picked up the spoon and took a sip, wow, the delicious taste slid over the tip of the tongue, it was so refreshing.
The comfortable expression made everyone in front of the screen swallow their saliva and stimulated everyone's appetite.
The Oroqen people like to eat half-cooked meat with bloody tendons, and they think that it is delicious enough and strong and nourishing.
Watching them use knives to put the bloody tendons in their mouths and chew them in large pieces, Mu Yu and the others were stunned, Lin Lin was stupid, why did these people eat raw meat?
Amba was so amused by their appearance that he covered his stomach and laughed, and deliberately boiled the meat in the pot for more than twenty minutes, and only then did several people follow their example, cut a piece of meat with a knife, dipped it in the salt water in the bowl, and put it in their mouths.
"It tastes really good, after all, it's still wild green food, mellow and delicious!"
Mu Yu said this to the camera, which made the Oroqen people of the 'Immortal Pillar' very novel and sighed.
During the banquet, because they were happy to drink, several Oroqen men also played "Pengnuhua" (a kind of harmonica made of iron) and "Wentuwen" (tambourine).
Ashku also performed deer whistles and roe deer whistles, which were both production tools and early musical instruments.
The lovely Amba girl also danced "Red Fruit Dance", and her eyes glanced at Mu Yu intentionally or unintentionally.
......
I heard that the Oroqen people are hospitable, guests and friends come, in addition to good wine and meat reception, when the guests are leaving, they also want to give their own local products. The Oroqen people are simple and sincere, and the hunter returns from the meat, whether they know each other or not, as long as you say that you want a little meat, the host immediately hands over the hunting knife to you, and where to cut it, how much to cut, all by the guests themselves, the host is very generous.
Hearing is false, seeing is believing, when Mu Yu and the others were about to leave, Ashku's parents took out some dried roe deer meat and persimmon jam, as well as some lion's mane mushrooms and some sun-dried wild vegetables.
Of course, Mu Yu didn't want to go, and put a thousand yuan on the table, and Ashku's parents accepted it with emotion after a long time.
This thousand yuan is too important for the Oroqen family in the deep mountains and old forests, because sometimes, although the prey can provide food, it cannot be easily exchanged for money.
A few people had already walked far away on Ashku's snow plow, and Ashku's family and neighbors were still standing at the door of the 'Immortal Pillar' and waving to them.
On the way, Ashku also told them a lot about some things about the Oroqen, he said: "The nature gods worshipped by the Oroqen people include the god of the sun, the god of the moon, the god of the Big Dipper, the god of fire, the god of heaven, the god of the earth, the god of wind, the god of rain, the god of thunder, the god of water, the god of grass, the god of mountains, and so on. In addition to nature worship, the Oroqen ancestors also worship the totems of "Niu Niu Ku (Bear)" and "Lao Ma (Tiger)", and the Oroqen people taboo the name of the bear and the tiger, but call it "Bao Rikan (God)", "Nuoyan (Official)", "Utaqi (Lord)". Ancestor worship is very prevalent among the Oroqen people, and it still is.
Five big hounds pulled the snow plough and quickly walked through the forest, and the vast mountains were vast and quiet.
Ashku was a little drunk, raised his whip and sang:
High in the Xing'an Mountains,
A big forest.
The forest is inhabited by the brave Oroqen,
A fiery horse,
A gun,
Roe deer and wild deer are all over the mountains,
I can't do it all.
High in the Xing'an Mountains,
A big forest.

A gun,
Roe deer and wild deer are all over the mountains,
I can't do it all.
After singing, his eyes moistened, and he sighed: "Those days are gone." ”
Mu Yu patted him on the shoulder, looking at the vast snow and became interested: "The scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting, the Great Wall is ....... inside and outside." ”
Lin Lin "cut" and said: "If you are really talented, you can make a song on the spot, don't pick up people's teeth there!"
Mu Yu said unconvinced: "Then you are talented, you can say a few words!"
Lin Lin opened her mouth and said: "The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and the stars are like rain!"
Mu Yu snorted and said: "It doesn't matter if your head is empty, the key is not to enter the water!
