Chapter 133: A Feast on the Prairie (Part II)
The distant sun was already hidden behind the rolling clouds in the sky, and the wisps of light that leaked out shattered the golden color. The wind on the prairie pushes the flowing clouds, and the white horses leap from afar with broken gold, and behind them is a raging sea of fire, spreading from the sky all the way down the earth.
Pillars of smoke had risen from the tents to the north, and they were not blown away by the wind until mid-air.
By the time the trio returned, the sky had turned a dull indigo. A huge bonfire was lit in the open space in the middle of the tribe, the boys played a cheerful melody with ox bone flutes, and the girls danced in their skirts, each time stepping on the thick beat of the cowhide drum. Women prepare food, and men and old people sit cross-legged on the periphery.
Someone saw the man who had come back with the horse and greeted them with a smile.
If the day is a feast for men, the night is a welcome gift for the whole tribe to the Monkey and Ji Yin.
Nao Yan naturally sat in the most honorable position, and behind him stood a blue and white flag waving in the wind, on which a green eagle with a golden beak and sharp talons seemed to spread its wings and soar among the clouds.
Qi Pi and Ji Cheng sat on his right side, but there was a vacant seat on the left.
Sitting on the right side of Ji Cheng is the man who asked him to drink during the day. He greeted him with a grin, "Emissary of the Red Dragon Tribe, I am Su Rile, the second best archer of our Kunshan tribe. ”
"Ji Yin." The young man also grinned, revealing his white teeth, "You are the second, so who is the first?" ”
"Naturally, it's strict." Su Rile replied briskly, not embarrassed at all, "But Nao Yan often uses scimitars, so I am the best archer in Kunshan." ”
Su Rile naturally wouldn't bring his bow and arrows on this occasion, but Ji Ying's gaze swept to Naoyan's waist, and the scabbard made of cowhide revealed the finely crafted hilt.
Ji Cheng hadn't seen the scimitar unsheathed, but he thought that it must be as sharp as his own blade.
The belated guest of honor has finally arrived. It was an old man, with a dark green robe on a snow-white shoulder, and he was supported by a young man who walked from a distance. Everywhere he went, the people gave way to him.
This is Tengger, the most feared person in Kunshan. He can read the will of the gods from the starry sky, and can talk directly to the messenger of the gods, the eagle, and he is the spokesperson of the gods and the messengers of the gods in Kunshan. No one knows how old Tengger is, and the people present, whether men, women, or children, have been like this for as long as they can remember.
Even when Nao Yan was born, the person who delivered him was Tengger.
And this time, the mysterious crystal vein was also found according to the instructions of the gods he obtained from the starry sky.
Qi Pi noticed that the young man who was supporting the old man was the one who stood behind Nao Yan during the day and took his knife.
With the arrival of Tengri, the dance music that was originally played has stopped, and the dancing girls have returned to their places. Qi Qi and Ji Cheng hurriedly stood up with Nao Yan and waited for the old man to come over.
This is the respect that should be had for the elderly, no matter what tribe you are in.
"Emissary of the Red Dragon Tribe, young friend, welcome to the Kunshan Division." The old man didn't approach them, but just stood in front of his seat and bowed his hand to them, according to the etiquette of the Red Dragon Tribe, "May the Immortal Heaven bless you." ”
Immortal Heaven is the name of the god of heaven in Kunshan.
As Tengger took his seats, the carnival began. Unlike during the day, when everyone in the tent still followed the rules, the bonfire ignited the blazing atmosphere under the night sky, and everyone directly picked up their wine glasses and began to drink and eat meat in large cups.
Qiqi saw that Tengger didn't move the food in front of him at all, just drank the milk wine in his cup one by one.
The milk wine of the Kunshan tribe is made by putting mare's milk or milk into a skin bag, stirring it, and then sealing it under a meadow next to the tsukuzawa, and digging it out after a few days, and the clumps of milk are dried to make cheese, and the milky white liquid is the intoxicating Alqiru after fermentation.
But soon the sight of the fox was cut off by the enthusiastic girls. The girls on the grassland had never seen a teenager with such fair skin, and even Ji Ying, who often ran around against the sun, had a whiter complexion than these girls.
In their eyes, although Qi Qi looked more like a visitor to the holy snow-capped mountains, to them who revered their strength, Ji Ying, who could drink boldly and open the muscles under his robe slightly in every move, was even more attractive.
A brave girl thrust straight into the middle of Ji Ying's and Surile's table, her green robe dancing like a skirt, revealing the delicate little leather boots underneath and the beautiful lines of the calves wrapped in soft leather. As if standing on tiptoe and turning in a circle, the white ayako with her waist crossed an arc in front of Hime's eyes, and the girl sat down beside him, her jet-black hair braided into braids, and the end of her tail passed through the cyan and white stones. Her cheeks were a pale red, and she didn't know if it was from the firelight, or if it was from the dance she had just done. TVmobile/
"Surina, what are you doing?" Su Rile raised his glass and glared at the girl sitting down, "Your place is not here. ”
"Abu, what are you doing at your age? It's better to give it to us. ”
Surina replied to her father's words coquettishly, her round eyes reflecting the beating fire. The teenage girl's body has become slender and plump, and the white color of the waist highlights the gap between the fullness of the chest and the slender waist.
The daughter of the grassland is already more heroic than the girl in the valley, and her personality is completely different from the subtle shyness.
Such unrestrained words made Ji Ying's face obviously red.
"The girls in our tribe are like this, they try it first when they see what they like, no matter what."
When he heard this, he looked up and saw the boy standing in front of him through the barrier surrounded by the girls, the man who helped Tengger to arrive.
The smile on his face revealed friendliness, "Can you talk?" ”
"Of course." Qi Qi moved to Ji Ying's side, and half of the felt was empty.
"My name is Ah Rishan, and I am Naoyan's youngest son."
"Monkey." He smiled and nodded at him. Ah Rishan, in Kunshan represents the lake, think that when he was born, Nao Yan hoped that he could become a treasure on this grassland like Tsusawa.
"The teacher said that the spiritual power circulating in your body is different from ours." Ah Rishan gave Tengri, who was blocked by the crowd, a glance at the location of Tengri, "It's like a stone falling from a star, and it's the closest thing to a star." ”
The words were so tongue-twisted that Qi Pi couldn't react immediately, "What does this mean?" ”
"Presumably your spiritual power is closer to that of the gods?" Ah Rishan spread out his palms, "I don't really understand what he means sometimes, maybe it's because I haven't studied enough." ”
