Volume 2 Fengyunlu Chapter 297 The Patriarch of the Tujia Family
The man said, "Guest, you wait here first, and I'll go in and pass it on." ”
Wang Laohu nodded and clenched his fists in agreement.
After a while, the man led an elderly man out of the door, and the old man saw Wang Laohu and said, "Guests from Zhejiang, come from afar, please, please come inside." "The old patriarch seemed very hospitable.
Wang Laohu and the others followed the old patriarch into the house.
Sit down.
"May I ask the old patriarch? What is this place? Wang Laohu asked.
"Our side is Tianmen Tujia Village, and the people in the clan are all Tujia." The old patriarch said.
It has been confirmed by the old patriarch that this is Tianmen Tujia Village, and the mountain just now should be Tianmen Mountain. "Old patriarch, the mountain we went all the way just now should be Tianmen Mountain, right?"
"Childe has been to the Heavenly Gate before?"
"A long time ago, I remember that there is a Tianmen Cave in Tianmen Mountain, Tianmen Cave on Tianmen Mountain, Tianmen Cave across the Tianmen Threshold in the world, if you go to the fairy world across the barrier. A life of worry-free happiness is like a fairy. ”
"It seems that Childe still knows a lot about our Tianmen." The old patriarch said, "Tianmen Cave is a big mountain leading to the peach source of the fairy world, the soul of the Wuling Mountain Range, I heard that there are unicorns guarding the door. Whether it is a clear sky or a starry sky, there are lightning and thunder in an instant, wind and rain, like tears falling from the Tianmen Cave, pouring down...... Tears poured down along the cliff cliff and waterfall, looking from afar, like the Milky Way in the sky and the nine continents under the Milky Way. The old patriarch introduced.
"It's such an amazing place." Wang Qingqing couldn't help asking.
"Tianmen Cave is really a good scenic spot, he is known as the world's highest altitude natural mountain cave, and there will be people who will come to glide and cross Tianmen Mountain in the future." Wang Laohu said.
"Wang Gongzi, what is this cave through the mountains and gliding you are talking about?" The old patriarch asked.
"Look at my mouth, it's always nonsense." Wang Laohu reviewed, "Old patriarch, this is my wife, and this is a young girl. Wang Laohu introduced to the old patriarch.
"Welcome, everyone." The old patriarch said.
"This mountain is high and the road is difficult to walk, my people want to rest here for one night, please trouble the patriarch to arrange it for us." This village is not like an ordinary market town, and there is no inn, so Wang Laohu had to come to the patriarch for help.
"There are still quite a few people from Childe." It is true that as the patriarch said, plus Li Tian and the Ming Tiger team, there are dozens of people. "It's not good for us to camp outside at night, so I'll put these people in the village."
"That's how grateful the patriarch is. I'm also worried that the camping brothers will be unbearable in the mountains, and I really can't express my gratitude in words for the arrangement of the old patriarch. Wang Laohu said.
"Prince Wang, you sit down first, I'll arrange your accommodation, and tonight we will set up a banquet to entertain guests from afar."
"The old patriarch is polite." Wang Laohu expressed his gratitude.
Seeing that the old patriarch went out to make arrangements, Wang Qingqing said: "I didn't expect that Gongzi really knew a lot of things. ”
"Xianggong, have you really been to Tianmen?" Feng Liu'er asked.
"I've been to the Gate of Heaven, but it's not like that." Wang Laohu said, "If you have time, you can still go and take a look at Tianmen Cave." ”
"Childe, listening to the patriarch's introduction, this Tianmen Cave is really quite mysterious, if I have time, I would like to go up the mountain to have a look." Wang Qingqing said.
"Okay, now that we're here, we can take the time to take a look at the Tianmen Cave." Wang Laohu said, "We may live more scattered tonight, but we can't relax our duty at night, Li Tian, this is arranged by you, in addition." Wang Biao, you arrange personal guards to protect your wife and the young girl. ”
Night soon fell.
In order to welcome the guests from afar, Tujiazhai lit a fire in the square, the patriarch sat on the upper seat, Wang Laohu and others sat below, two guests a long table, and a big bull's head was placed on the table, which was the highest level of the Tujia to welcome guests.
"Prince Wang." The patriarch raised his glass and said, "This is our homemade glutinous rice sweet wine, and we welcome guests from afar." ”
"The patriarch is so polite." Wang Laohu also raised his glass and said, "Thank you for the kindness of the old patriarch, I will do it first." After a glass of wine, Wang Laohu felt a trace of sweetness coming up from his stomach, this homemade Tujia wine is indeed different from the Tuhuang wine in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it is really a water and soil wine.
At this time, several young men and women danced a national dance around the fire, and they sang while dancing, which was also a grand ceremony for the Tujia family to welcome guests. These girls and boys dressed in national costumes sang and danced, gathered around the bonfire, sang and drank at the same time.
"Brother Bunny, I'm so happy today, please guest, why don't you come to the ward and say a word to me." A bearded man walked into the field.
"Brother Pei." The old patriarch of Buni stood up and said, "I wanted to come to the tribe to come with you, but I thought you came by yourself. ”
"It's a bit reluctant to say this, if I hadn't come, I wouldn't have been able to do such a good thing." Craftsman said.
"Come, come, Brother Jiangpei, and introduce this distinguished guest to you." The old patriarch of Buni said to Wang Laohu, "This distinguished guest is from Zhejiang. ”
Wang Laohu and Feng Liu'er stood up from their seats and greeted the newly arrived man. "Hello from Zhejiang. I am the tribal chieftain of the Craftsman. Craftsman said.
"The leader of the craftsman, the tiger in the lower king, was treated by the old patriarch tonight."
"Seeing that Gongzi's aura is extraordinary, I don't know what kind of business he is doing?"
"I'm doing a small business, which is to go around giving people darts." Wang Laohu said.
He turned to the old patriarch of Buni and said, "I came all the way, and it seems that there are people on duty on the road, and these people are not from our clan. ”
Wang Laohu hurriedly got up and explained: "Old patriarch, these are the people who came with me, and they are all used to it. You know, those of us who travel from south to north are often pinned to the waistband of our trousers, so we are cautious. ”
"Wang Gongzi, our Tujiazhai is far away from the ordinary county government, and it is surrounded by mountains, so you can relax, no one will come to disturb you." Old Buni Patriarch said.
"Luo Yuyi, I've seen Uncle Bunney soon." Craftsman said to a young woman beside him.
Wang Laohu also found that there was a pavilion woman standing next to the craftsman, dressed as a Tujia girl, wearing a blue hat, a silver ornament in the middle of the hat, like a phoenix, and a red pendant in the brim, and some crystal pendants hanging on the side.
Luo Yuyi was wearing a collarless cardigan. The placket is open to the left, from the collar to the hem to the foot of the skirt with one inch and five wide laces, and the sleeves have one large and two small three laces, the large lace is one inch and five wide, and the small lace is finger wide. The sleeves are about one foot two inches larger, and the width of the lace is the same as the sleeves. The chest coat apron mom skirt, the apron is semicircular on the top, triangular on the bottom, and there is also a circle of lace from the upper semicircle and the lower foot. The chest of the apron is embroidered with a ribbon about five inches square, and there are three inches of unwoven flowers at each end.
Luo Yuyi saluted the old patriarch, and the two who came later sat down at the table opposite Wang Laohu, and the four clansmen who came with him stood behind him.
The flames are still burning. Along with this flame, the men and women around them danced to welcome the distinguished guests.
"Luo Yuyi is our Tujia lark, the voice is crisp and bright, there are distinguished guests here today, why not sing a song to the guests." Old Patriarch Buni proposed.
Jiang Pei also echoed: "This is a good idea, our Tujia family wants to be famous for singing, and there are distinguished guests, in addition to dancing, this song should be counted." Luo Yuyi, you just sing a song to dedicate to the guests. ”
"Since Uncle Bunney and my father say so, I'll sing a song to the guests." Luo Yuyi said.
Hearing it, Luo Yuyi is a straightforward girl. The old patriarch of Buni beckoned to the dancers on the fire and said, "Our Tujiazhai has not been so lively for a long time. After the old patriarch Buni finished his announcement, the crowd erupted in thunderous applause. Wang Laohu also clapped his hands. Luo Yuyi was not afraid of life at all, she really flew to the side of the fire like a lark.
The song like a lark, Wang Laohu really wanted to hear it. The Tujia people love to sing, and they open their mouths to sing a big basket, so it is rare for a nation to be good at singing and dancing.
