Chapter 24: The Celebration Banquet

The three of them had only been seated in the old chief's house for a short time. One after another, people from the tribe came to the courtyard in front of the chief's house to prepare for the evening feast. Some of the clansmen slaughtered pigs and sheep, and some set up tables and chairs, and people came and went for a while, so it was not lively. By the time the sun had set, all the meals had been prepared and waiting for the chief to announce the opening of the feast.

"Let's go out now, you're the protagonist of tonight's celebration feast, and you can have a few more drinks then. Seeing that the preparations were made outside, the old chief stood up and said to Xiao Jian and the others.

When the three of them came to the courtyard, they saw that a roaring bonfire had already risen in the open space in front of the courtyard, and more than a dozen tables were arranged in a huge circle around the fire. Except for a few who were seriously injured and could not come, the people who participated in the battle today and the leaders of the tribe were basically all here. The red bonfire reflected everyone's faces, talking and laughing, looking extremely excited.

"Let's just sit here. The old chief said, pointing to a long table in front of him, which was noticeably taller than the others. Obviously, this table should be the main seat that only the old chief and the other major chiefs of the tribe are qualified to sit in.

"This ...... I'd better find a random seat to sit in, I don't think it's a good place for me to sit there. Xiao Jian saw at a glance that this table was different from the others, so he excused himself.

"There's nothing inappropriate, you're the most honored guest of our tribe, and you've made such a great feat today, if you postpone it, the clansmen will mistakenly think that you look down on our Divine Dragon Tribe. The old chief couldn't help but say, pulled Xiao Jian and came to the table to sit down, and at the same time called Zuo Liancheng over to accompany him.

After everyone was seated, the old chief stood up, first coughed lightly, cleared his throat, then stretched out his hand to press the void, and when everyone was quiet, he said in a loud voice: "Everyone, we can defeat the Divine Dragon Clan today, and we can eat this celebration banquet here. First, I am here to treat the warriors of our tribe, and secondly, I am also to introduce to you a new guest of our Shenlong tribe - this one next to me, Xiao Jian, Xiao Gongzi. Today, he not only saved the most beautiful girl of our Shenlong tribe, Asika and his younger brother Amu, but also killed the enemy bravely and fearlessly, killing seven people from the Fire Tribe alone, and made great contributions to our victory today. Come, everyone welcome, welcome!"

As soon as the old chief's voice fell, everyone applauded in unison. For a while, there were applause and cheers, and the scene was very enthusiastic. Even Dan Ivan, who had intended to be difficult to sell, had to puff his hands a few times because of his face.

Xiao Jian didn't expect the old chief to start introducing himself as soon as he came up, so he quickly stood up from his seat, greeted everyone present, and said, "Xiao went into the mountains to hunt. Unfortunately, he was injured and fell so far, thanks to the care of all the fathers and brothers, especially the Zuo Danshi of Zuo Liancheng, he was lucky to be able to save his life. After saying that, he bowed to the crowd and bowed before he sat down.

"Brother Xiao, you don't have to be polite, just rush at your courage today, you brother, I Lei Zhentian admit it! In the future, if anyone in the tribe wants to trouble you and give you small shoes, you can tell me directly, brother, I will definitely stand up for you." As soon as Xiao Jian's words fell, the scar-faced Lei Zhentian, who was sitting next to him, stood up and said to Xiao Jian with his unique loud voice.

"Then thank you Brother Lei, and I hope Brother Lei can take care of him in the days to come. Xiao Jian knew that the second half of Lei Zhentian's words were obviously deliberately said to him because he saw Dan Ivan making trouble for him today, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, and quickly got up to thank him.

"Lei Zhentian, what do you mean by this? Could it be that there is anyone in our tribe who will trouble Xiao Gongzi? If that's the case, don't say that you don't agree, I Zuo Liancheng won't agree. Zuo Liancheng understood Scarface's words, and also stood up and echoed loudly.

Listening to Zuo Lian Chengcheng and Scarface singing and harmonizing with a gun, Dan Ivan's face suddenly turned red with anger for a while, and white for a while, but it was not good to have a seizure, he just snorted coldly and sat on the chair silently.

"Come, Xiao Gongzi, let me introduce you, this is the deputy chief of our Shenlong tribe, Dan Iwan, you have seen today, this is the great elder of our Shenlong tribe, Zuo Qiu Yun, this is our second elder Batu, this is ......" The old chief was very enthusiastic, and introduced the main leaders of the tribe to Xiao Jian one by one, and except for Dan Iwan, who was only slightly owed, all the leaders also got up and saluted Xiao Jian one by one.

"Come, everyone raise the cup, let's toast Xiao Gongzi with a cup!" After introducing the main leaders of the tribe, the old chief raised the spiritual tea in his hand and proposed loudly.

"Yes, let's toast Xiao Gongzi together!" the old chief's words were immediately agreed by everyone, so they raised their glasses and dried them up.

After saluting Xiao Jian, everyone was no longer polite, they picked up chopsticks one after another, and began to eat with vegetables.

Had a dinner party. After the tables were removed, the women of the tribe began to dance around the bonfire, holding hands, dancing and spinning briskly, the movements of which were simple, but passionate and heroic, bold and unrestrained. Later, men and men from some tribes joined them, and they danced in pairs with their wives and their lovers to the beat of the music.

Xiao Jian and Amu sat next to the fire man and watched everyone's performance with interest, although they couldn't understand the meaning of each dance move, Xiao Jian clearly felt the joy and happiness on their faces, it was a primitive, simple, unpretentious joy and happiness, there was no hypocrisy of acting on the spot, there was no flattery and flattery, and there was no bitterness of forced laughter, everything came from the most real moving in the heart, everything came from the most real thoughts of the soul. When Xiao Jian was in Huaxia, although he was a soldier, his life was relatively simple compared to ordinary people, and there were not so many places to flatter. However, as a child of a family, how can he not see much of the things that are fighting for power and profit and conspiracing and calculating in the officialdom and business field? And this group of people in front of him is obviously much simpler and more direct than the people he saw in the original world.

"Xiao Gongzi, why don't you go dancing?"

"Brother Xiao, why don't you dance?"

Just when Xiao Jian was extremely emotional in his heart, two graceful figures suddenly appeared in front of him, one was dressed in white and snowy, as delicate as a green willow supporting the wind, and like a hibiscus out of the water, and the other was wearing a tight purple skirt, revealing a little coldness in her charm, quite like a peony in the deep mountains. Xiao Jian, who asked the eldest brother to wear a white dress, recognized it as Zuo Liancheng's daughter, Amu's sister Asika. And the other one is very face-to-face, and he has never seen it before. The two are not only dressed differently, but their temperaments are also diametrically opposed, but they are both skin like clotted fat, ice clear and jade, although they are not powdered and do not wear crown jade, they are dusty and extraordinary. If Xiao Jian was really asked to choose between the two girls in front of him and the so-called movie and entertainment stars who relied on lace news, plastic surgery and makeup that he had seen when he was in China, Xiao Jian would definitely vote for the two people in front of him without hesitation.

"May I ask who you are?" Xiao Jian quickly stood up, first said hello to Josia, and then looked at the other girl who came with him, and asked.

"My name is Siri Twilight, and Chief Siri is my father. Everyone calls me 'Xue'er', Xiao Gongzi, you can also call me 'Xue'er'. When the purple-clothed girl saw Xiao Jian looking at herself, she immediately opened her lips, smiled, and said.

"It turned out to be the daughter of the Xili chief's family, my name is Xiao Jian, and I have met Miss. After speaking, he habitually stretched out his right hand to the other party, but after waiting for a while, he didn't see the girl reaching out, and he suddenly woke up, it turned out that this was in another world, and it seemed that this was the most popular handshake in the previous world, and it didn't work in this dragon tribe. Thinking of this, Xiao Jian quickly retracted his hand in embarrassment.

"This is another golden flower of our Shenlong tribe, Brother Xiao, isn't our sister Xue'er very beautiful? Huh? Brother Xiao, what did you want to do just now? Did you see that our sister Xue'er was beautiful, and I was a little moved? If that's the case, I can match you up!" Xiao Jian's embarrassing action just now was seen by Asika at all, and he couldn't help but giggle out loud all of a sudden.

Asika made such a fuss, Xiao Jian became even more embarrassed, and he didn't know what to do. Xili Xue'er, who was originally down-to-earth and generous, also blushed, stretched out the jade and slapped it Asika's pretty buttocks, and said angrily: "I'll let you talk nonsense." I'll let you talk nonsense, see how I clean you up. ”

"Hey, Brother Xiao, you hurry up and preside over justice. Oh, Cher, are you sorry to be told about the matter?" Asika knew that Cher wasn't really fighting, so she continued to giggle and make fun of Cher while dodging. For a while, the two girls made a mess, but Xiao Jian was cold.

After a long while, Xiao Jian saw that the two of them had finally quieted down, so he explained, "Aska, you misunderstood just now. It is a kind of etiquette for me to stretch out my hand just now, and in our place, shaking hands is the most common etiquette when meeting someone for the first time. ”

"I see, why didn't you say it earlier? Then let's shake hands too, because we met for the first time that day, and we haven't shaken hands yet. Asika's words suddenly made Xiao Jian's face full of black lines, "Where did you give me the opportunity to explain just now?" Besides, even if I didn't shake hands with you that day, it doesn't necessarily have to be returned!" Although Xiao Jian was slandered in his heart, he couldn't say anything. I had to shake hands with the two beauties one by one.
