Chapter 27: ceremony

What to do at the patriarch is actually very simple, just write the names of two people on a stone, and then the patriarch personally throws it into the forbidden area.
Because all the people will go to that place after death. It is said that the stone with the name of the partner is thrown in. After the death of both partners, it can drag the souls of the two people and let them stay together forever.
In the tradition of the orc world, this is something similar to a marriage certificate ... It just means not only responsibility, but also two people.
Compared to the practice of divorce in modern society, the relatively simple character of the orcs towards this stone is very serious.
Sata took out a special kind of grass juice and asked Tantu and Suetze to dip their feather pens and write their names on the stones.
Tantu couldn't wait to write it down first, and Su Ce, after recalling the writing of this text, also held a very religious attitude and engraved the beginning of his future life on this stone.
Sata smiled and patted Tantu's shoulder: "Okay!"
Tantu's smile couldn't be suppressed.
Su Ce's heart seemed to be missing for a moment, but soon filled with something.
Sata finally said, "Come to the altar on time in the evening, and I will preside over the ceremony for you!"
After returning to the forest, Su Ce could hardly recognize the original appearance of Tantu's house.
In addition to the kitchen, the wooden houses that existed there were already overthrown. They were replaced with larger houses, which also had two floors, but the area was probably more than twice as large—the land needed was obtained from logging and the wood It happens to be used to build houses.
The lower floor is divided into four rooms and a lobby, and the upper floor is divided into two, which is no longer hollowed out. All sides are installed with "wood walls". The doors separating the two rooms can be inserted. It looks tight. The inside is covered with thick animal skin, which is more fluffy and softer than before. It is even smooth when touched, and it should be non-sticky. There were several small, equally heavy animal skins outside, as well as tables and stools. The staircase opening was made wide enough to allow the Tantu prototype to jump up and down.
There are tables and stools on the ground floor, but other things are gone.
Su Ze looked back at Tantu, and Tantu smiled at him: "I asked them to do it, Atza, do you like it?"
Nodded, Su Ze said, "Like."
However, men build houses very quickly ... it's as simple as eating and drinking.
The male figures have long since disappeared, and Su Ce is a little confused: "What about them?"
Tantu walked into the kitchen with Su Ze and warmed him the morning soup, saying, "They are the 'Haggs' I invited, my brothers, and the people who prepared the food for our ceremony. They are now Go hunting. "
...... Is it to prepare a table for the wedding banquet?
Su Ze looked at him: "Are these times enough?"
Tantu carefully held Su Ce's shoulders and laughed: "Relax, Ace. They are all amazing ... well, before evening, how can it be enough." Then mumbled again, "Anyway they ask me and me Will go too! "
Su Ce's expression was also softer: "I can help in the future."
Hearing this, Tantu was even happier.
Atsushi has the consciousness to bear everything with himself ... It's great.
The afternoon passed slowly and quickly. Tantu took this time to find Laya and took back a new set of red silk fabric in the eyes of the other person-although he had bought several Set, but at the time of the wedding ceremony, it really should be updated.
Moreover, he never gave too much clothes to Atze.
Su Ce knew that today's occasion was special, so he naturally took over.
Then Tan Tu took a lot of water to bathe Su Ce in the wells in the village, and brushed himself carefully.
Well, Tantu is actually very nervous.
He was worried that he would behave badly ... even if he knew it was not possible, he would be afraid that Ace would suddenly leave because he was dissatisfied.
When Tantu was nervous, Su Ce was not nervous anymore.
He was starting to think about some questions that he hadn't thought about before, such as ... how old is Tantu?
Tantu's appearance always looks like he is in his twenties, but today, from the ridicule of other males, know that he seems to be just an adult?
However, if Tantu is really too young and asks himself at this time, it will hurt Tantu's self-esteem.
In fact, Tantu is Tantu, no matter how old it is.
Is "adult" anyway, isn't it?
When the hourglass—that is, when the sand in the
bucket
had run out—turned around, he kept walking around before that.
Su Ce put down the wooden bowl he was grinding—he was practicing his own handwork, and stood up.
Tantu took a deep breath: "Azer, it's time."
Su Ce smiled at him with a smile.
Tantu reached over and shook his fingertips: "Ah ... Azer, let's go."
Su Ze simply put his hand up: "Okay."
This is the first time that two people are holding hands in such a serious manner. Tantu's palms have a thin layer of sweat, hot and humid, and Su Ce feels that Tantu lies from the top and smiles in his heart.
The distance of the altar is not very far-even if two people walk slowly like this, it only takes about half an hour to arrive.
The altar is a tall stone platform, on which stands a rampant beast's head, and on both sides are burning braziers on huge stone pillars, and the flames in it never go out.
The forbidden ground was behind the altar, and the patriarch stood on a small stone platform in front of the altar.
Near the altar is a vast open area, and many bonfires have burned, almost turning the sky red. Various naked beasts were set up on the fire, and many females were roasting behind the fire, while the males dedicated themselves around the females.
When Su Ce and Tantu arrived, they were seen by the apex of the highest standing patriarch, who immediately gave a high-five.
The hustle and bustle just now calmed down.
Stared by the eyes of thousands of people ... even if Su Ce was used to being a manager, he was a little dazed.
Fortunately, he had seen big scenes and was a little shy, but he was not scared.
Tantu was filled with excitement, and the previous anxiety suddenly disappeared.
All the people gave way, leaving a straight to the altar, and everyone had a warm or blessed smile on their faces, making the air warm.
Su Ce felt that Tantu gripped his hand more tightly, and he didn't consciously hold it back.
A deeper sense of reality struck ... Really, if you walk over, you will form a partner.
He got married.
Surprisingly, his heart settled.
Maybe because the person next to him is Tantu ... he thought.
The patriarch's face was full of smiles on the small stone platform. When the two were near, the expression slowly became serious again.
"I think your decision to become a partner is a deliberate decision," Sata said.
Tantu nodded with Su Ze: "Yes."
Sata spread out a palm, the palm is the stone with the names of two people: "Your name has been written on the unwavering rock, and your ties will be like mountains and will never be shaken."
Tantu and Su Ce looked at each other, Tantu looked a little expectant, Su Ce smiled slightly.
Su Ze looked back, looked at the statue of the beast's head behind Sata, and said seriously: "Yes."
Tantu felt that he could hardly hold back his excitement. He calmed down and said more religiously: "Yes, I will always protect Atze."
Sata smiled again: "Then, under the testimony of the beast Manuel, the male Tantu and the female Suetze will become lifelong partners, share their lives and souls with each other, and be faithful."
Tantu swears: "I swear, Lord Manuel witnesses my loyalty."
Su Ce also looked up: "I swear."
After the two men's vows were issued, Sata solemnly led Tantu and Su Ce, kneeling in front of the statue of the beast god. When they got up, Sata stepped up to the altar step by step, pushed the stone gate behind, and held the The stone in the palm was thrown down.
Then he said: "Master Beast God will bless this couple."
The ceremony ended in a cheer, the sky was dark, and the light of fire was reflected on Tantu's face, softening his hard outline, and Su Ce looked warmer than Wencun when he looked at Tantu. .
The rest of the time belongs to this couple and all the people who come to bless them. This will be the case every time a new couple appears. This is not a grand event for couples, but for all people.
Whether they are familiar with Tantu or unfamiliar men have sent gifts, most of them are small fat and tender beasts, and these beasts often become food to entertain everyone at this campfire dinner.
Tantu was poured a lot of fruit wine, mellow but not intense, but he felt as if he was drunk in this jar of delicate wine.
His hand, always holding Su Ze's hand, took him to know their people.
Yes, he can finally rest assured that this is a "their" clan.
At this time, the females also always maintain a tolerant smile, no matter whether it is their partners, suitors, or others, they do not account for their morbidity.
Everyone loves happiness, pursues happiness ... blessing happiness.
