Chapter 32: Tribal wedding (2)

Priest Veria counted them and made sure that the number was correct.

She again ordered to her deputy Bona, "You take all the women behind the veil. Remember, the unclean must be screened out, and we cannot be deceive by them."

Bona, wearing a small antler helmet, will inherit Veria's work. After Veria's death, Bona will be the abbot of all major sacrifices.

She is an excellent successor trained by Veria and is very loyal to her beliefs.

Thanks to those simple clothes, Bona quickly completed the inspection.

Until now, the girls from Novgorod are still pure, and the ceremony can go on.

Bona led all the girls out of the curtain and sent them to their husbands.

She approached Veria and reported cautiously, "They all passed the inspection, they are all pure."

"Very good. What you said must be the truth, because..." Veria pointed to the sky, "The Valkyrie looks at us."

The great priest who is revered by the people pointed at the sky, and the people kneeling on one knee raised their heads subconsciously.

Rurik is also holding up his little head, seeing the sky full of stars and the bright Milky Way.

In another time and space, due to severe light pollution and haze interference, urban residents have been unable to see the Milky Way, and even the light of the Polaris has been submerged by the urban glow.

The people in this era have a lot of leisure time at night to think about what the sky full of stars represents.

Romantic and serious people in Fort Rose think that a certain shining spot in the stars is Asgard, and there is a Valhalla temple inside.

All the heroic spirits of the warriors are in the sky. Every night, the heroic spirits can watch their tribes and their descendants in the sky.

Based on this ideal, Arik held the hand of his newlywed wife and looked up at the sky, and couldn't help crying.

It has been seven years, and he always believes that his father's heroic spirit has been watching him until tonight's wedding.

Everyone looked up at the sky, and the star studded night gradually began to change.

In this era, people in Northern Europe eat a lot of fish, so they generally have excellent eyesight. They can see details far away, and they can also see the whole process of Aurora's emergence.

Suddenly someone shouted presumptuously, "Look! There is light."

"It's Aurora! Brunhilde is here!"

"Ah! They are just like us, following this ceremony as spectators..."

All the sacrifices were in place, and the Otto group who was carrying the deer retreated to the back of the altar very skillfully, pulled out their saber into the snow, and then knelt on one knee.

The priest Veria ordered everyone to be serious, and finally, based on her memory, chanted a blessing spell to the northern lights in the sky.

All she speaks is Gnostic, because she is too old and she just said too much, her voice becomes a little hoarse.

Even so, Rurik basically understood the content.

This is a hymn to Odin and Valhalla. It is fair to say that it rhymes, but the content is rather cramped.

Rurik has Liu Li's spirit after all. He now has a lot of understanding of the Viking community, and he also knows that it is unfair to give them a purely violent and barbaric evaluation.

Like the Ross tribe, they have documents that must be written on wooden boards to record old things. Didn't you think they could still write poetry?

They are also people with literary ideas!

"Faust" and "Song of Nibelungen" and other Nordic ancient books are preserved for later generations. I am afraid the true situation is that a large number of ancient books have disappeared due to loss.

According to Rurik's understanding, it should be the tribal priests who have mastered these books. If they no longer believe in Odin in the future, the ancient books will also be annihilated in history.

"The hymns that sung by Priest Veria, I have to ask her to write it out this winter. And the so called library in her priest's cabin, where the contents can be preserved. It's best to let the illiterate group of the tribe learn it. As long as it becomes a popular thing, it can be better passed on to future generations."

The whole wedding ceremony is actually the most important part of the solemn prayer of the priests.

Even the priests are very nervous, whether the tribe and the in laws of another group of aliens in the distance have received the oracle in compliance.

It now appears that the Valkyrie appointed by Odin to cruise has basically confirmed the decision of the tribe.

The long chanting ended, Veria, who was standing for a long time wearing a huge helmet, was almost exhausted and sat slumped on the ground.

Veria insisted on continuing to host, she opened her arms again, and ordered the people who were almost muscular on one knee to get up, especially the newcomers.

The pure wedding ceremony officially begins.

Like Arik and Peravina, the two suddenly forgot their fatigue.

Because of the matter just now, she has already understood very well. The pure Peravina believes that her identity has been recognized by the God of Varangian.

In fact, the same is true. The Varangian created the Odin Valhalla belief, and they themselves identify with Odin.

The people of the Ross tribe have recognized the marriage to Novgorod, and the future sailing of viking will have one more task, which is enough.

Then, the wedding ceremony officially begins!
