Chapter 1432: A high amount of success comes, fortune-telling
Chapter 1432: Gao Liangcheng comes to divine the bad and auspicious days
On this day, the ancestral land of the Jiazong tribe was extremely lively! The patriarch Murong Cangbai and a group of elders were looking at the door, as if waiting for someone to arrive.
Suddenly, a boy ran over in a hurry, shouting as he ran, "Chief, the matchmaker will be here soon!"
The general process of the weddings of these tribes is actually similar to the weddings of the Song Dynasty, but a little simplified! Of course, they also have their own characteristics.
This so-called fuga is the matchmaker invited by the man to come to the matchmaking. Usually he is a tribal priest or tribal elder!
"Come on!"
Murong Cangbai waved his hands vigorously towards the tribesmen around him, "Play it for me!"
In an instant, all kinds of drums and music sounded together, and all the tribesmen danced happily!
Not long after, I saw a group of people coming towards the door of Jiazong! The leader had white hair and a white beard, but he was wearing a rich costume! On his left and right, stood a strong middle-aged man
Man, a slightly younger man stood on one side.
Among these three people, the elder was none other than Gao Liangcheng, the old prime minister who had become an official. The people on his left and right were Bian Xi and Gao Zhenshou.
When he arrived at the entrance, Gao Liangcheng held his hands in his hands with a face full of joy, "I've met the old patriarch!"
"You're welcome, sir. Please come quickly!"
Murong Cangbai greeted Gao Liangcheng, and the rest, including the elders of Jiazong and others, welcomed Bian Xi and the others, thus entering the clan!
After serving tea in the main hall, Gao Liangcheng said, "Sir, when we came here the day before yesterday, we already calculated the birth dates and palaces of Brother Shen and your daughter Murong Yu! The two of them are naturally a match made in heaven!
"
"Today, I am going to predict the bad luck of this marriage. I wonder if the old patriarch can agree?"
"Hahaha!"
The old patriarch laughed loudly, "It should be like this, it should be like this!"
"Your distinguished guests, wait a moment, I'll have someone prepare it!"
With that said, he turned to Murong Wu and said, "Murong Wu, go and see the good and bad things immediately. Don't make any mistakes!"
Murong Wu immediately responded and left!
The first step in this tribal wedding is to talk about marriage! The man invites a matchmaker to the woman's tribe to negotiate a match! Similar to the Song Dynasty wedding, the two parties exchange birth dates, life palaces, and taboos to calculate whether the man and woman can get married.
When the calculation is finalized, it is time to choose a day to predict bad luck.
Gao Liangcheng did not refuse after receiving the news about Gao Zhenshou. He also knew the benefits of being on good terms with Shen Tang! This time, helping Shen Tang get married in Dali also deepened Shen Tang's impression of Dali.
Therefore, he must have left the Zijin Mountain where he lived in seclusion and arrived at Shanchan Mansion.
After arriving, he agreed with Bian Xi on a date and came to Jiazong tribe to propose marriage.
Although the matter has basically been concluded, the process that needs to be taken naturally needs to be walked through again! The fate has been combined in the past two days, and today is the day of divination.
Before long, Murong Wu hurriedly returned, "Clan leader, we are ready!"
"Sir, are you having trouble moving?"
Murong Cangbai said.
"Walk!"
Gao Liangcheng and others got up and followed Murong Cangbai towards the open space in the middle of the ancestral land.
When a group of people arrived, the place was already crowded with people watching the fun! Following the passage into the middle of the open space, they saw three or five strong Murong men holding down a pink piglet.
This little piggy is all clean and pink, and even has a happy flower on its head!
"Kill animals, take the spleen and gallbladder, and predict bad luck!"
After Murong Cangbai stood still, he raised his beard and roared!
A man who had been waiting on the side immediately picked up the golden knife on the tray and stabbed it into the belly of the pig with a pop!
The piglet hissed loudly, but it only struggled for a moment before losing its life! The man who killed the pig was obviously an expert. He took out the spleen, gallbladder, etc. of the piglet in just a few clicks, and carefully
Put it on the jade plate dragged aside!
Afterwards, the little pig was carried away, and all the blood stains were cleaned up! The little pig that contributed to today's divination will then be carried directly to the kitchen, where a special cook will prepare a meal
A whole pig feast to entertain today's distinguished guests.
"Ask the master to divine!"
At this time, shout out for high-volume growth!
The next moment, a sedan was carried over, the curtain of the sedan was opened, and an old man who looked to be very old was tremblingly helped out of the sedan!
Gao Liangcheng and Murong Cangbai came to greet them in person, bowed and said, "When the children of the clan get married, they ask the master to predict the bad luck!"
This old man is not a simple man. Speaking of it, he is a member of the Duan family, and can be regarded as an old priest of the Duan family! Generally, only the emperor's wedding is qualified to invite this man to come to divine fortune.
This time, in order to show his goodwill to Shen Tang, Emperor Duan Zhengxing specially invited the old priest out and traveled thousands of miles to Shanchan Mansion.
This is why even Gao Liang Chengdu is so respectful.
The old man nodded slightly and walked step by step to the center of the crowd. He first bowed to the spleen, then took out a few polished golden coins and sang in a low voice while walking with mysterious steps.
!
This process lasted for about a quarter of an hour. The old man was panting and trembling! However, he still raised his hand vigorously, and the golden coins in his hand fell into the middle of the jade plate!
"Dang, Dang, Dang..."
Several crisp sounds were heard, and the old man lowered his head to watch. Then, he took a deep breath and shouted with all his strength, "This marriage is in accordance with the laws of heaven and human kindness. This is a match made in heaven! Good luck!"
"Wow!"
The surrounding Jiazong tribe members started to make noises and started singing along!
Gao Liangcheng and the old patriarch Murong Cangbai came forward in person, first helped the old man collect the precious coins, and then they caressed the old man into the sedan chair and breathed a sigh of relief.
This old man is naturally noble, but he is too old. If something goes wrong, they will have difficulty explaining it, and the bad news will naturally be cast a shadow.
Fortunately, the old man had a good spirit and finally persisted in this divination!
As for this bad luck, of course it is good luck, and there will never be other results!
However, these tribesmen are obviously very fond of this. Just looking at the happy faces of the surrounding tribesmen, you can tell that they have no doubts about it!
After the divination of bad luck, Murong Cangbai took Gao Liangcheng's hand and said, "Let's go, invite the distinguished guests to the banquet!"
The banquet was naturally joyful and harmonious. After the banquet, Murong Cangbai led people to send Gao Liangcheng and others outside the door. Gao Liangcheng raised his hands and said, "Old patriarch, please stay. I will come back in three days."
!”
"Okay, okay, okay..." Murong Cangbai said hello repeatedly, and then everyone in Gao Liangcheng left!
Looking at the people leaving, Murong Cangbai turned to Murong Wu and said, "Go, go to Murong Zhong's courtyard and tell him that the marriage proposal will take place in three days, and Yu Yatou should start preparations."
