Chapter 135: The Palace of the Great King (2)
Chapter 135 The Palace of the Great King (2)
The King Hall was originally like the houses in the village, with rocks and thatch as the roof, but now it has red walls and yellow tiles. The palace is towering and looks extraordinary, which makes people feel respectful when they see it.
Lelang talked to the grandma and walked into the King's Hall. When he walked inside, Lelang found that it was different inside. The surrounding walls were smeared with white gray, which looked very eye-catching.
The god worshipped by the ancient barbarian tribe in Dashan Village is a very ancient existence. Lelang walked into the King's Hall and saw a god standing on the clouds in the middle, holding a spear in his right hand, and holding a one-horned python tightly with his left hand, with his eyebrows and eyes full of grimness and majesty, and awe-inspiring spirit. When he entered the hall, people would unknowingly feel awe.
There were four gods on both sides. The first one on the left sat cross-legged on the ground, not knowing what was written in a pen, and a small snake beside him looked at it; the second one had a hideous face, one foot on the ground, the other was on a dragon and a snake, holding a harpoon in his hand to sting.
The first one on the right hand raised the giant axe to slash. A big snake was tightly wrapped around his thick waist, and the snake's head was exposed on his shoulders. Looking ahead, there was an inexplicable light in his eyes. The second one was holding a green grass in his hand, with his hands behind him, and behind him a dragon with two feet had turned into a flying dragon. The gods in the temple had different shapes, either sitting or standing, but there was a giant python following him, and the wall behind him was painted with ink and water.
In the past, these gods were carved into random places with soil. Now they have used colored sculptures to make their whole body look much better than before. It turns out that people need clothes and gods need makeup.
Lelang looked here. The old people behind had already put the packed chicken, sheep, and pigs on the square table in front of the gods' desk, and then put all kinds of delicious dishes on it. The forest was filled with a lot of them. When one table could not be placed, they brought another table to continue to put it on. The villagers wanted to use their best and best dishes to worship the gods they believed in.
After they were arranged, everyone lit incense.
"Alang, come here and pray, let the king bless you with peace and prosperity." Wumao screamed at Lelang with a few incense.
"Oh." Lelang walked over, picked up the incense and bowed devoutly, and then walked out. The cigarettes were lingering in it, and he couldn't stand it. When he came out outside, he saw Ahua sitting quietly in a corner of the square in front of the hall, and there were a few big snakes that were much smaller than it next to him.
The ancient barbarians in Dashan Village regard snakes as the guardian saint of the villagers. Not only Wu Hai is the only one who raises snakes in the village, but there are also a few elderly people who raise them. However, Ahua is an alien and has the largest body, so I don’t know how it grew up.
To this day, many inheritances of the Guman tribe in Dashan Village have almost been cut off due to the derailment of secular etiquette and society. Even when you are a grown-up, you must find your own guardian snake. This long-standing inheritance has been changed to find your own guardian snake when you have time.
Nowadays, people in the world are struggling for life every day, so they have no time to take care of a little snake. Over time, this oldest inheritance will soon be cut off. Now, only the old guys of the ancient barbarians still retain some ancient things. Perhaps, in the near future, these things will be completely lost. This is the helplessness of life.
In the King's Hall, a group of old men gathered together to recite the ancient tribute. A solemn and inexplicable voice came out of the hall, making people feel pious respect from the bottom of their hearts.
After worship, the old people carried the tables to the square in front of the hall and placed them one by one. On both sides of the square are several tall longan trees, which blocked the heat of the sun. The clear wind in the mountains is sometimes blowing, which is very cool.
Everyone set the tables one by one, put the dishes on the table, put them on the table, served a large bowl of rice, and started eating. After the meal, everyone brought homemade fruit wine from home, poured it in the bowl, and drank happily. For a moment, cheers were everywhere, and they tried to persuade the wine frequently. Lelang couldn't resist the old people's persuasion, and overdid it. Outside, Ahua buried her head in eating the dishes that everyone served it. The few big snakes on the side did not have as good appetite as it did, and they couldn't smell it. This may be the reason why Ahua could grow so big.
This meal was eaten until dark, and everyone left for fun. Lelang was filled with a lot of wine by these old people, and when he returned to the house, he fell asleep.
At Lelang's house, Saburo sat under the eaves with his hands on his chin and looked at the dark night in the distance, and then lay on the ground at three o'clock. Perhaps seeing the little master in a bad mood, he kept licking him to show comfort. The old Taoist also sat next to him, looking sad. In order to take care of this little ancestor these days, he had tried his best to pray in his heart that Lelang would come back quickly.
"Grandpa, isn't Uncle Alang back yet?" Sanlang was silent for a while and asked to the old Taoist.
"I'm coming back soon, I should be back tomorrow." The old Taoist was so angry when he heard Saburo's words. I don't know how many times such conversations have lasted in the past few days.
"You said so yesterday, the day before yesterday, and the day before yesterday, Grandpa, you lied to others, TV said that it is not a good child who cheated on people." Sanlang exposes the old Taoist lies. Don't look at Sanlang's little, he has a very good memory.
"Grandpa didn't lie to you. Your Uncle Alang is really back tomorrow, really." The old Taoist swears to Sanlang's pointing to the sky and the earth.
"Lie, the old Taoist grandfather lied to others, the old Taoist grandfather lied to others, wu...wu...wu...I want Uncle Alang, I want Uncle Alang." Sanlang suddenly burst into tears as he said, and the sound moved the world, and birds flew in the night.
When he saw the old Taoist making the little master cry at three o'clock, he immediately shouted at him unhappily.
The old Taoist looked at it and slapped it honestly, "Sanlang, your uncle Alang is really back tomorrow. Don't cry, don't cry, come, see the old Taoist grandpa make you something."
When the old Taoist saw Sanlang crying so hard, he was panicked. Once upon a time, he had to use his skills to deceive people when he was young to tease Sanlang. In a few seconds, he attracted Sanlang's attention. Seeing that Sanlang stopped crying, the old Taoist finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself: Good boy, by your crying like this, the old Taoist heart that has been as strong as a stone for many years has cried.
The iron was hit while it was hot, so he tricked Sanlang into the house, closed the door, turned on the TV, and the cartoon was broadcasting on the TV, which attracted Sanlang's mind. The old Taoist wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought to himself: What a thing, I'm almost a nurse. This kid Alang must deal with him when he comes back. There is no reason why he is eating and drinking outside, but he is playing monkey play with a little kid here.
In the big mountain village, Le Lang was lying in his hairless home, sleeping unconsciously.
When he woke up the next morning, Lelang felt refreshed. He walked to the door and moved a little, and heard the hairless in front of him call for dinner. He washed up a little, walked over, and put on a bowl of porridge and started eating.
"Are you leaving today?" Wumao asked Lelang while eating porridge.
"Well, I've been out for so long, I have to go back. There is still a kid in my family. I don't know what the quarrel has become." Lelang couldn't help laughing when he thought of Sanlang.
"Why, I have married a wife for a few years, so why didn't I notify the old man?" Wumao immediately asked with big eyes when he heard this. He treated Lelang like a relative. Unexpectedly, this kid married his wife silently, and of course he was very angry.
"Uh..." Le Lang was angry when he saw Wumao, and then he thought that he might have misunderstood, so he laughed and said, "No, I picked it up outside. Why didn't I tell you if I marry my wife?" As he said that, he told Wumao about Saburo's life experience.
"Oh, the children are all flesh on their parents. I didn't expect that there are still people who are so cruel. Now they are!" Wumao couldn't help but sigh. Although they are in the deep mountains, they are not really out of line with the secular world. Some people in the village who are more skilled in their hands and feet sometimes take some things from their homes outside to sell them. After they come back, they will tell everyone what they see and hear, so they know some more extensive information in society.
After hearing Wu Mao's sigh, Le Lang was silent. He could not comment on the current impetuous society.
"Everyone heard that you were leaving today, so they sent some things over. I'll help you sort it out and take it back when you leave later. Look, that's all." Wumao pointed to Lelang at a big bag in the corner of the wall and said.
Lelang looked in the direction he pointed, and a big bag was lying quietly in the corner. He put down his chopsticks, walked over and picked it up and tried it.
"Not heavy." Wu Mao said.
It's not heavy, at most more than 100 kilograms, Le Lang said in his heart. However, he was not easy to refuse everyone's kindness, so he had to accept it all. Anyway, as long as it leaves the village, it's nothing.
After dinner, he took a break and Lelang went out to say goodbye to the elderly. However, some of the elderly who went to the fields to work early, and few of them were at home, which made him feel a little regretful. However, thinking that the same was true next time, he carried his things and walked out with Wumao. Suddenly, he turned around and looked at it, and felt very strange. Why didn’t he see Ah Hua this morning? Thinking that Ah Hua might have run out to play again, he shook his head and continued to walk forward.
