The Marriage Festival is a very important festival for the Danmu tribe.
On this day, a kind of red flower will be hung at the door of every household in the tribe, making the decoration particularly festive. In the center of the tribe, where the prey is usually divided, a stone platform will be built, and the stone platform will be surrounded by flowers and plants found by the orcs from outside.
There are many small stalls around the stone platform, selling some common porridge and barbecue. Some families will put out some small items that they don't need at home and give them to those who like them.
The whole tribe is like a small market.
On this day, whether married or unmarried, orcs and brothers had to act alone. Wang Jin was dragged by Mu Ge'er to visit these stalls early in the morning.
The barbecue on the stall was prepared for the orcs. They couldn't chew it and it was mushy... Wang Jin took a bite and it didn't taste good.
Most of those little trinkets were animal skins, porcelain bowls, and the like, which were already available at home. Wang Jin didn’t like them, but the flowers around the stage… they were bright red and particularly pretty.
When he saw these flowers, two things came to his mind—rouge and dye.
The ability given to him by the old man told him that these bright red flowers could be made into rouge and dyes.
The guys here will smear red mud on their faces on important festivals. The red mud is actually a kind of red soil, which is a little finer than ordinary soil, but it is still soil.
No matter how thinly you apply mud on your face, it doesn't look natural and breathable, which makes it particularly uncomfortable. It's different if you put rouge on it...
There are also dyes. Now the cloth woven is white, so the clothes are all white... If there were dyes, the clothes could be dyed in various colors, which would be much more beautiful than the monotonous white.
Wang Jin thought that after the banquet was over, he would take all the flowers back and let Yuan Heng arrange them according to his method.
While I was thinking about this, the banquet had already begun.
At the beginning, some orcs were doing a strange dance that looked like a ritual. Some guys were interspersed in the dance, hitting the stone surface of the stage with wooden sticks, making some rhythmic music.
Mu Ge'er told him that this was the dance performed during celebrations of the Danmu tribe, and it was only performed on important occasions. The orcs and Mu Ge'er had been practicing it since childhood.
After the dance, some guys came up to perform.
In primitive tribes, performances are limited. Some people just sing a few lines, and some just dance a few times... Generally speaking, it can't be considered a show.
However, as long as an unmarried man comes on stage, there will be people supporting him.
There are few brothers, and almost every brother in the tribe has suitors. Even if the performance is very bad, he can still be admired by suitors.
Some guys who are interested in the sought-after orcs will appear very shy, and some bold orcs will even propose marriage on the spot, at which time the crowd will burst into cheers.
In the end, it doesn’t matter whether the performance is good or not. What matters is that the atmosphere is warm and harmonious, giving people a feeling of Chinese New Year.
Wang Jin watched with great interest, feeling that he had not experienced such excitement for a long time.
In his previous life, he would visit the night market almost every once in a while and buy everything in the night street...
It's a pity that there is no night street and no business here...
