Chapter 190: Washing (1)
The next day, early in the morning.
At the moment when the first rays of the golden morning sun sprinkled on the vast grassland, hundreds of tribes and tens of thousands of primitive people and natives had already woken up early.
As far as the eye can see, down the left bank of the river, curling smoke rises everywhere.
After a hasty breakfast, the tens of thousands of people, all of whom were tribes, stood near the waterfall, and likewise stood in the same order as the campsite.
In the direction in front of them, there was a huge flat stone platform, which was naturally a treasure place for presiding over sacrifices.
As in previous years, the first ritual of this year's festival is still the main sacrifice of the red cypress.
At this moment, the old man's dress and dress were unprecedentedly grand.
He was dressed in a pure white linen robe, and the linen robe had obvious traces of folding, and at a glance it was clear that the owner cherished it and would only wear it on important occasions.
Under the white linen robe, a beautiful purple color was faintly visible.
This should be Chi Bai's appearance on such an important occasion, and he also put on the purple leggings given by Song Yong.
On the top of the red cypress's head, he also carried a high crown of colorful feathers, and in his thin hands, he also held the skull of an unknown beast.
In such a grand and strange way, the red cypress was perched high on the stone platform, enjoying the gaze of tens of thousands of people.
Different from previous years, this year, the southwest region of Rainozawa has newly added the Gray Rabbit and the Tough Bone Witch, these two noble witches.
As assistant sacrifices, the two of them are also qualified to climb the high platform and enjoy different treatments.
The only problem was that he was also wearing a white linen coat from beginning to end, with an exaggerated high crown like a pheasant's tail, and he had never looked at Song Yong squarely.
That is, the gray rabbit who wore a white shirt and could only wear an explosion-proof helmet.
But it doesn't matter, she hasn't looked at Song Yong squarely, and Song Yong doesn't have the heart to look at her more.
At this time, this thing is feeling extremely excited to be able to preside over such a ceremony of tens of thousands of people.
From childhood to adulthood, his biggest official position was that he served as a class group leader, so naturally he had no chance to host any school programs.
Well, now that he can show his face in such a big scene of tens of thousands of people, even if it is only one of the two auxiliary sacrifices, isn't that enough for him to stink!
As for whether he could preside over the things that he couldn't preside, he didn't care about it at all.
It's amazing, it's just a large-scale feudal superstitious activity, and it can't be a vision of heaven and earth, so Song Yong, who has watched what a variety show, thinks it's okay......
When Chi Bai raised his hand, the tens of thousands of people present immediately closed their mouths.
Under the silent environment, Chi Bai slowly began to dance a strange dance, which reminded Song Yong of the dancing god of the modern plane.
At the same time, Chi Bai's mouth emitted some strange syllables and words in a special rhythm.
Song Yong could swear that he had never heard these strange syllables and words, but when they fell into his ears, he could understand the general meaning.
The meaning is roughly like this:
Thanks to this heaven and earth, as well as the ghosts and gods of the heavens, and all the gods and spirits in the mountains and rivers, so that the human race can continue to thrive in this heaven and earth.
At the same time, he also represents all the human races, praying for good weather and cruel natural disasters to stop happening~
After jumping for about ten minutes, his whole body seemed to be a red cypress fished out of sweat, and he ended his main sacrifice ceremony, and then it was the turn of the assistant priests to replenish.
The first to start was the Tough Bone Witch, and this girl also danced the gods and sang weird content.
But to be honest, this old lady's trembling posture is really eye-catching.
In the end, after the Tough Bone Witch finished her sacrifice, it was naturally Song Yong's turn, and as early as last night, he had learned about the relevant process from the mouth of the gangster, and he had already made preparations.
Naturally, he can't dance the gods, doesn't he know how to dance a square dance?
The difference between the two doesn't seem to be too big! At least the square dancing movements still look more or less graceful.
That kind of mysterious and mysterious people can't understand, strange syllables and words, as a parallel import, he naturally doesn't know it at all.
However, if he sang the familiar excerpt of "Lisao" in his heart in standard Mandarin, could these people still find fault with it?
"The long wife rests to cover up the tears and mourn the difficulties of the people's livelihood. ”
"Although Yu is good at repairing his concubine to be restrained, he will talk about the court and replace it at night~"
While trying to dance the square dance according to the memory in his mind, Song Yong raised the electric horn in his hand with a compassionate face.
Then, dragging a long tail note, he began to recite the sentences he remembered.
Thanks to a certain girl who loves ancient literature in Baoqing College during his college years, although Song Yong didn't even hold the hand of the girl in the end after a lot of hard work.
But in the process of pursuing, he remembered the most famous passage in "Lisao".
And even if it is a different plane, in the ancient text of Dr. Qu that has been transmitted for thousands of years, the profound truth, the great thoughts and sentiments of compassion and compassion have also made Chi Baiqi and Tough Bone Witch a little moved.
In the end, Song Yong also ended his performance a few minutes later.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but after the square dance ended, he found the two of them, Chi Bai and Tough Witch, and their eyes were a little different......
After the sacrifice of the three people ended, the sacrifices prepared by all the tribes in advance were thrown into the water at this moment.
It is basically the best prey that they rarely enjoy in ordinary times, but when they are thrown into the water, no one will be reluctant at all.
Then, a scene that made Song Yong dumbfounded happened.
In the Jishui River, which was still mighty forward, it began to tumble violently, and faintly, he could still see a long strip of cyan giant creature that was several miles long, constantly moving and rolling in the water.
It's just that he can't see the whole picture of what this creature is.
In the mist in his mind, all the primitive people and natives cheered loudly: "This year's sacrifice has made the river god of Jishui very satisfied this year, and we will definitely have a better time this year!"
The washing ceremony after the sacrifice begins at noon.
Because at this time, the water of the river, which had been muddy due to the tumbling of the giant creature, became completely clear.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Song Yong even found that after such a time, the river seemed to be a little clearer.
In the strongest rays of the sun at noon, all the great men were stripped of their little animal skins at once.
They took the little cubs who were stripped straight naked, and they fluttered to the diving area in the river with great excitement.
Soon after, they soaked their whole body in the river, and after exposing only their heads, they washed their bodies vigorously.
Because they firmly believe that these cleanest water of the year can wash away the pain and ominousness of their whole body, so that they will be healthy and healthy for the rest of the year.
Originally, Song Yong didn't believe in this kind of mysterious statement at all.
But after that amazing scene, he still felt the need to try.
As a result, when he soaked himself in the river water, he found that the river water, which should have been biting, had not magically become warm.
However, that slight feeling of coldness is within the range of human acceptance.
Then, when Song Yong picked up some river water in his hands and washed it on his head and face, he felt that even his soul seemed to be a little purer......
