Chapter 464 The Romantic and Brave Nation(2/2)

He Huan said: "In the past, they had armed fights and blood revenge, and all men in the tribe were obliged to participate. Women were responsible for care and logistics.

But as long as a woman, no matter from which side of the battle, rushes to the battlefield, waves her skirt and shouts for an armistice, even the fierce fighting will stop immediately."

The experts laughed and said, "It's very interesting!"

"Hmm. I don't know which wise ancestor decided that men should learn to use crossbows from a young age, but they cannot shoot women. This gives men the obligation to fight, and at the same time gives women the power to cease war."

Liang Ange nodded, "This is much better than starting a war over women."

"Yes, marital feelings were originally one of the reasons why they fought. The whole clan also participated in the war. Similarly, if a woman ran out to stop it, the war would cease.

No matter which side this woman feels sorry for, in short, there is no need to fight, right? There will always be someone who will leave sadly."

A group of people were overjoyed.

"So...some people say this is disrespectful to women, so we won't broadcast this episode." He Huan said keeping up with the times.

The experts were speechless. Look at them again. This is trust, right?

A man has the ability to speak without false intentions, and women also believe that he has this ability.

The archers competed in archery, and the singers couldn't stand it anymore, and the hillside was filled with singing again.

Everyone experienced what a cultural and sports carnival is! We also felt the romance and bravery of this nation!

In the evening, the Little White Dragon Troupe and the singers went to have dinner, and a bonfire was lit where the knife poles were made.

When I came back after eating, the campfire had been extinguished, leaving only a pile of red coals.

Niba sang ancient mysterious songs and danced around the coals. Suddenly he took a sip of water and sprayed it around.

"This is a cleansing place, please ask the Dragon God." He Huan explained, "With the protection of the Dragon God, you won't get burned if you go into the sea of ​​fire."

When the experts looked at the pile of red charcoal, they felt hot even when standing next to it.

"Are we really going to go into the sea of ​​fire?"

The four warriors had taken off their shirts, rolled up their trouser legs to their knees, were barefoot, and drank the water given by Nipa.

Niba beat the gongs and drums and led the four warriors into the field.

The surrounding Lisu compatriots cheered in unison, played the flute and played the flute, and the four warriors danced and jumped into the red charcoal fire.

"Ah!" The experts stared wide-eyed.

The four warriors bent down and groped in the hot coals.

The experts didn't dare to blink, and they didn't dare to express their anger.

I saw a warrior picking up a red-hot iron chain from the coals and dancing wildly around him.

Iron and fire made a clanging sound, and fire dragons danced under the night sky.

The experts were all shocked, "I have seen a dragon dance, but I have never seen a fire dragon dance!"

But the warrior danced vigorously, jumping back and forth in the hot coals, dancing the iron chain, and then threw it to the next person, who then danced the fire dragon.

Liang Ange was shocked, "This music trip is completely an acrobatic trip!"

After dancing the fire dragon, the four warriors took up charcoal fire and wiped it on their naked upper bodies.

Dancing, sparks flying.

Experts watched in shock as they were rained down with fire.

"This is called a fire bath. It can wash away the pain and bad luck on the body, making the new year healthy and auspicious!" He Huan explained.

We can no longer describe it in words.

A group of Lisu people were not surprised at all, and became more and more happy singing and dancing.

The experts also calmed down and could only pretend that the warriors who had plunged into the sea of ​​fire were gods descending to earth, cheering for everyone, and dancing with them.

When the warriors from the sea of ​​fire came out, the experts quickly gathered around them with concern, "Are you okay?"

The four warriors proudly raised their feet and showed their palms. Not only were they unscathed, but their skin was not even blackened.

How impressive!

"Why won't it hurt like this?" Liang Ange asked curiously.

The warriors said of course: "Because the God of Fire and the God of Dragon are protecting us!"

The experts looked at them and couldn't understand. This was no longer acrobatics, it really looked like witchcraft!

The experts looked at the little white dragon again.

He Huan looked at them, "Although my name is Xiao Bailong, I am not the Dragon God, and I don't know either!"

Everyone laughed.

He Huan added: "Fire is the object of their worship. Many ethnic minorities in Yunzhou worship fire, and that's how the Torch Festival came about.

People who practice slash-and-burn farming have fire pits in every household, and they also light bonfires for singing and dancing. They are naturally psychologically closer to fire than we are.

The same goes for knives. The ethnic minorities here in Yunzhou used to carry knives with them since childhood. They were also close to and dependent on knives.

Playing with fire and knives has been their habit since childhood.

Of course, even if they are Lisu people, not everyone can go up the mountain of swords and into the sea of ​​fire. In addition to skills and experience, the most important thing is the psychological factor.

They believe that they have been possessed by gods and will not be injured after performing a series of pious rituals. Knives and fire are close companions that have been with them since childhood, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

Experts looked at the pile of hot and crackling charcoal fire, and there was nothing to be afraid of?

"In the past, at the Tengchong Knife Pole Festival, some Han people were injured when they went up the mountain of knives and into the sea of ​​fire. Later, everyone agreed that this activity could only be done by the Lisu people, and others would be injured if they participated.

There is hesitation in their own psychology, and the result of injury triggers taboos. But they believe in God's protection and are never injured, so they are even more fearless."

Everyone looked at them and couldn't understand.

"Psychological suggestion is indeed very important. It will bring obstacles to us and stimulate our potential. Science cannot explain this clearly. In short, the power of faith is indeed great.

If we are as hesitant, scared, and unbelievable as we are, then we definitely can’t go up mountains of swords and seas of fire, or we will get hurt. So don’t imitate, let’s just take a look.”

Everyone nodded. Who dares to imitate this?

"Since we have seen it with our own eyes and cannot explain it scientifically, we might as well accept their statement."

The experts put aside their confusion and joined them in singing and dancing around the fire coals and partying until late at night.
Chapter completed!
