Orc Targ

Chapter 22 Ceremony

For the next ten days or so, Tag and An Lang went out early and returned at night every day to visit the young orc friends in the East District. Jiang Yu was not idle either. He wanted to make a new set for himself and Tag before the ceremony. Clothes, from weaving to cutting and sewing are all done by him alone.

I made two sets of clothes according to the shape of the shirts. Although they are not as good-looking as modern ones, they are still good to wear.He didn't have time to look for dyeing materials yet, but he thought that he could cut the animal skin and sew it on the edge of the sleeve of the pocket as a decoration, which would make it more distinctive.

Janeville was originally a tailor, so he didn't need to help them with their new clothes. On the contrary, he had to work harder to prevent the other party from being inferior.

"Ayu, I'm going to the jungle tomorrow morning, we leave early, you sleep a little longer."

Tag Hululu finished eating the food in the bowl, and there was some joy in his voice, finally getting closer and closer to the two officially becoming a family.

"Are you going with An Lang? Does the last injury still matter?"

"It's all right now," Tag patted his back lightly to show that the wounds had healed, "Terry and I separated when we entered the woods. The place, so we won’t come back together. By the way, Ayu, Terry said to help us make two big cages for the golden rain beast. This time, we can use wood as the cage. In the past, we dug a hole and threw the golden rain beast in to prevent it. ran away."

"Well, I see, you have to be more careful in the woods, it doesn't mean that the wild beasts in the woods have come in estrus recently, and they are more irritable than a few days ago. If you get hurt, then..."

Jiang Yu stopped talking, and Tag hurriedly nodded in response.

"Shall I get you something to eat later?"

"Okay... But Ayu, you don't need to do too much. If I finish eating, I can still hunt and eat barbecue. It's getting dark now, so you can make as much as you like."

Jiang Yu cooked enough meat for him for a few days before going to sleep. Thinking about it, it is incredible, but in a few months, in a few days, there will be one more person living with him for the rest of his life.

This time the trip went smoothly, perhaps because the clues from last time were reliable, Tag came back on the fourth night, the big cage An Lang sent was very strong, the Golden Rain Beast was bitten off by Tag, Put it in the cage and give some minced meat to raise it.

Jiang Yu looked at the beast in the cage, it looked really round and naive, but it could be seen that it was ferocious even when he bit the meat.For the next three days, Tag went to An Lang's house every day to see if he had come back.

"Uncle Yang, hasn't An Lang come back yet?" Standing outside the courtyard wall, Tag asked the female who was cleaning the courtyard, it was none other than An Lang's father.

"Tag is here, come in and sit for a while. I think I should be back in these two days. The patriarch also came yesterday. If I say that you are all very kind to that kid, if you really can't find him this time , then let him wait a few more months, and see that his tail is up to the tip of his nose a few days ago."

Uncle Yang babbled and took Tagera into the yard to sit down, poured him some water, and handed him a few pieces of dried meat.

"Uncle Yang, I've already had breakfast. Don't say that. Holding a partner ceremony is a once-in-a-lifetime event. I'm happier than An Lang. My father also said that about me like you said Terry." He scratched his head embarrassingly.

When Tugg sat about a beast at Terry's house, Janeville also came shortly after he came, and he got up to leave. He had to go hunting in the outskirts of the jungle, and the previous prey had almost been eaten.Unexpectedly, not long after he left the east gate, an orc walked up to him, carrying a living creature whose limbs were tied with grass and vines and still struggling faintly, who was it if it wasn't An Lang?

Tag Yixi stepped forward quickly, "An Lang, you're back!"

An Lang smiled heartily and patted the Golden Rain Beast on his shoulder, "It's all because it's too cunning. I searched for it for several days before I found it. What's going on in the tribe? gone?"

"Uncle Yang said that your tail is going to stick to the tip of your nose. Janeville is also at your house. Go back quickly. I will catch two prey and send one to your house later."

An Lang was very tired just after he came back, and one prey could give him an extra day of rest. As friends, it was common for the three of them to help each other hunt, and it was natural to do it.

Seeing An Lang's faster pace, Tag turned into a beast and ran in the opposite direction.

The day before the ceremony, Lie Er came when Jiang Yu just woke up, so it can be seen that these two days are also restless.

Tag and An Lang went to the venue to have a look and make some decorations, but they won't be back for a while, while he received the females who came early in the morning.

These people are the ones who will help him prepare the meals for the orcs at the ceremony tomorrow. They heard that they will make a kind of food called hot pot. I have no idea, but I still want to come and find out sooner.

He and Janeville are respectively in charge of the two methods of spicy pot and three delicacies pot. He had already taught Janeville the method of frying the bottom of the spicy pot the day before yesterday. Janeville practiced for two days, and at the beginning he only dared to fry a little. , Later, I became familiar with the heat and materials, and it became much easier.

There must be quite a few people going to Janeville's house today, so that the two of them can teach the helping female how to make hot pot. The easiest thing is to cook a hot pot meal together.

Jiang Yu first greeted the females who arrived one by one, and after getting to know each other for a few words, Jiang Yu started working. He explained a few words to the people next to him while he was doing it, and later, some people who understood it recommended themselves, and it was lively After eating it once, most of the females liked the three delicacies hot pot. They said that they would make it for their family members when they went back. Some people felt that it was not tasty enough. I heard that Janeville’s family still has spicy ones, and they are looking forward to tomorrow’s ceremony.

In the evening, everyone went home one after another. Jiang Yu bent over to clean up the cups and dishes on the table, and felt very tired. After sending everyone out, Tag took the dishes in his hand and looked at him. With a tired look on his face, he felt distressed, "Ayu, you have been busy all day, I will wash these, you go to rest for a while, eat some fruit."

"There are so many, you have to wash for a long time alone, let's wash together."

"It's okay, I'll wash up quickly, Ayu, go and rest, I'm not tired."

"Okay, then I'll watch you wash." After Jiang Yu finished speaking, he dragged a bench beside the kitchen, watching Tag's busy figure back and forth, with the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

"Tag, are you... nervous? Tomorrow's ceremony."

The bowl in Tag's hand slipped, "Not nervous, Ayu, are you nervous?"

Jiang Yu saw his actions and snickered, "Of course I'm nervous. What if I make a mistake tomorrow and treat sugar as salt and make a fool of myself?"

"No, don't worry, just say that I put the sugar."

"...Hahaha you, you really want me to say something." Jiang Yu couldn't help but look at him seriously.

After everything was done, he pulled Tag to sit on a bench in the yard, and the two of them leaned quietly without talking.

After a long time, Jiang Yu stretched his waist and said, "Go to sleep, boil some hot water and take a bath, there is business tomorrow."

After speaking, he leaned over and kissed Tag on his forehead, and after thinking about it, he kissed the scar on his left cheek a few times, and the response he got was that he was hugged tightly.

Lying on the bed, Jiang Yu kept thinking that it was time to go to bed and there was still a lot of work to do tomorrow, wondering what would happen tomorrow night?

Tag also tossed and turned in the next door, closed his eyes against the wall, and grinned silently again.

"This side needs to be fastened, the collar should be fixed, and it should not be crooked..."

Jiang Yu had already tidied himself up at this time, and was helping Tag to put on his clothes, when he heard someone approaching outside the courtyard, he turned around and saw that it was Lie Er and Mei Bai who had come.

"Ayu, how are your preparations going?" Lie Er asked.

"It will be ready soon, Dad, why are you here? It's still early in the evening." Jiang Yu stopped his hands and poured water for them to eat.

Mei Bo hurriedly waved his hand to tell him not to rush to greet him, "We've eaten, Lier couldn't sleep last night, and I finally looked forward to the afternoon today, clamoring to come to help, you just go to the ceremony hall later, what you need Your father and I will take it."

Lie Er looked at the two happily and said, "You all look good, the patriarch and the priest should come over later, and the golden rain beast, let me see if you are in good spirits."

Jiang Yu opened the cage from the top, and the Golden Rain Beast stared at the people outside, with its fur shining brightly, waiting for the patriarch to bring it to the open space.

Sure enough, the sacrificial priest arrived not long after, saying that the patriarch had arrived at Janeville's house first and would be here soon. Jiang Yu was in a trance when he saw everyone laughing, as if his life in modern times for the past 20 years was just a dream.

The open space by the river has been decorated a long time ago. Tag and An Lang borrowed many tables, chairs and benches at some point. The males carried their prey to celebrate, and the females picked up a lot of dry firewood, enough for a whole night of fun. celebrate.

Jiang Yu also saw Janeville and An Lang, who were both newcomers. They were wearing white round-neck pullovers with red sleeveless cardigan animal skins on top. The four of them chatted and laughed together.

As evening came and the crowds gradually increased in the open space, the patriarch held the simple trumpet that Jiang Yu had used in class and stood on the high platform to shout, and everyone fell silent.

"On Gengwu day of the Gengwu month of the Dingyou year, we in the East District of the Mingo Tribe held a ceremony to form a couple today, and four people held the ceremony at the same time. I would like to send my most sincere blessings to Anlang, Janeville, Tag and Jiangyu. An Lang, Tag, bring up the auspicious beast you caught."

On both sides of the high platform, Tag and An Lang took the golden rain beasts up and stood on both sides. The priest Einuo stepped onto the high platform at this time, and the patriarch continued, "Please pray to the ancestors."

The patriarch took a step back and let Einuo stand in the middle. Einuo held a small stone mortar in his hand, knelt down and put the mortar on the ground, closed his eyes and whispered a prayer.

Jiang Yu stood under the high platform and watched from both sides. It seemed that it had been a long time, and it seemed that it was only a moment before Einuo finished praying. The patriarch took the blood from the hearts of two golden rain beasts and put them into the small stone mortar in Ainuo's hand. Einuo also forgot to mix some small red fruit and edible safflower in the blood, mashed them together and divided them into four small bowls.

He doesn't know what's the use of those added to it, but they are edible after all, and they presumably represent auspicious things.

Seeing that Einuo was done, the patriarch continued, "Jiang Yu, Janeville, you come up too."

Jiang Yu and Jian Weier came to the stage from both sides as promised, and stood behind Tag and An Lang respectively. Looking down at this time, they felt nervous. There were about 80 to [-] people standing in the open space, all looking up at them. Several people, standing at the front are Amutli and the elders of his family, all smiling at them.

Tag took the two small bowls that Einuo handed over, and handed one of them to Jiang Yu.

"An Lang and Jian Weier, Tag and Jiang Yu, from now on, you will live together, share your joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys, support each other at all times, and never turn your back on them. If you want, you can drink the beast in your hand blood, swore the blood to make an alliance, and swore an oath."

Jiang Yu and Tag looked at each other with a smile, looked at the red liquid in the bowl, luckily there was only a little bit, and took the courage to drink it, the mouth was filled with a strange taste, a bit fishy, ​​and a bit bitter, but the aftertaste was A touch of sweetness.

Tag also drank the blood in the bowl, looked at Jiang Yu's taste, and said softly, "Bitter first, then sweet, but I won't let Ah Yu suffer."

Jiang Yu's heart warmed, and before he could answer, he was interrupted by the words of the patriarch.

"The ceremony is complete, let's step down and accept the blessings of the clansmen."

Tag took his hand and walked down the steps. This is his partner, so... married, right?Jiang Yu clasped his fingers with him, and An Lang and Jian Weier also came down from the other side, surrounded by tribesmen on both sides, saying blessings and presenting gifts in their hands.

Gifts are eclectic, or animal bone necklaces, or stone statues, or collections of animal teeth.

As night approached, the fires were ignited, and the females were preparing the hot pot for the evening. Some males had heard from their partners that the hot pot was special, and some were looking around curiously.There are people who are in charge of preparing the seasoning bowl, and there are people who are in charge of cutting vegetables and putting them on the plate. Everything is in order. Most males who have never eaten hot pot like this novel way of eating. People who cannot eat chili also have delicious soup pots. Everyone They all ate with red faces and were very satisfied.

There are also some single males who pursue their favorite people at this time, or invite each other to dance, or sing the most original songs.

The lively ceremony did not end until midnight, but at this time Tag and Jiang Yu were going home.As Tag's father, Lie Er sent them home with Mei Bo, winking at Jiang Yu and his silly son.

Tag lowered his head and licked his lips, and habitually touched the ends of his hair with his hands. At this time, a big man became a little shy. He smashed Yamu who had been soaking for a while, and walked in front of Jiang Yu eagerly. "Ayu, this... is for you."

When Jiang Yu saw Yamu, he remembered the time when he just knew the purpose of this thing, and he couldn't help laughing. Today, it's true, he still eats wood after drinking blood, "I still remember when I saw this, and I was worried for several days."

"Ayu..."

"Pour me a glass of water."

Tag hurriedly poured half a glass of water on the table, Jiang Yu grabbed a pinch of Yamu which had been smashed into small pieces and put it in his mouth, it didn't hurt, so he took another sip of water and swallowed it.

At this time, all the etiquette that should be done is done, and both of them sat on the edge of the bed a little cautiously. Spread out a piece of extremely soft animal skin.

Jiang Yu coughed all over, stretched his arms around Tag's neck actively, moved his mouth to his ear and bit it lightly, needless to say to seduce him.

Tag held him back, the hands around his body were strong but careful not to hurt him, kissed him gently from the forehead to the center of the eyebrows, nose, and lips, and then took off his clothes, Jiang Yu's hands were not idle , Tag's clothes had been taken off by seven or eight points, and they kissed and entangled each other affectionately.

Jiang Yu didn't know when he fell asleep yesterday, but he didn't want to get up now, he stretched his body, Tag opened the curtain, the gentle sunlight shone in through his body, and he called him with a gentle smile Remain.

When he approached, Jiang Yu stretched out his hand, remembering that when he first came here, he wanted to touch his face under the oil lamp. At that time, he felt that it was just a thought that was abrupt. Now, his fingers carefully touched Tag's cheek. After a long time, he thought of something , smiled lightly, "I remember, you told me that you will always take care of me and treat me well."

Tag hugged him whole, agreed, and then added hesitantly, "I remember saying that it would be better for Ayu in the future..."

Jiang Yuwo yawned in his arms and grinned, "I really remembered this time."
