Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before Dragon Slaying

Chapter 889: Ceremony of Oath Cup (two in one, please subscribe!!!)

The main hall is a spacious room of more than 300 square meters. Even if it can accommodate a hundred people at the same time, it will not look crowded. Hundreds of futons are spread on jade-colored soft tatami mats. There is a small horizontal table on each futon. A small bottle. The small bottle is filled with the refreshing aroma of wine. An old drinker like my uncle will know after one sip that the wine inside must be aged. If this kind of wine is not a private treasure, it is better to take it. If you go out to sell it, it will definitely not be cheaper than Moutai.

At the front of the main hall is a altar carved from golden nanmu. The carvings are exquisite and luxurious. If this altar alone is put up for auction, it will probably fetch a sky-high price of seven or eight figures. The priests and witches gathered in front of the altar. The characters are lined up, but they are not standing, but kneeling. Whether they are old priests or young and beautiful witches, the expressions on everyone's faces are full of seriousness and respect, and there are rich offerings. Placed in the center of the altar, there were not only expensive fruits such as finger oranges, African horned melons and Roman ruby ​​grapes, but also real ingots and gold foils. The firelight from candles made of mermaid oil swayed slightly in the air.

There are three huge human statues enshrined at the back of the altar. The one in the center is a heroic man. He is tall and straight, his eyes are bright, and the golden sun is held high above his head with one hand.

On the left side is a cold female figure, barefoot and bare shoulders, slim and graceful, with a long gauze skirt dragged behind her. The woman's forehead is carved with a long, hook-like moon made of warm jade.

The man on the right is a burly man with a Crow Tengu mask on his face. His unruly long hair is spread over his shoulders. He has two huge long knives slung on his back and waist respectively. , his sharp eyes can be seen through the holes in the mask, as if he wants to cut off all injustices in the world.

Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susano'o, these are the "gods" enshrined by the eight Snakeki families today... The original "god" was supposed to be the "Mother Goddess" Izanami, but that great and sinful The "ancestral god" had died a few weeks ago and became the past tense forever, so her three descendants became the most noble gods.

When he first walked into the main hall and saw this scene, Lu Mingfei actually wanted to know that Minamoto Chisheng was the "Amaterasu" of the Sheqihachi family, Eriyi was the "Tsukiyomi", and Kazama Ruri It is "Susano no Ming", three people with the destiny of "god", one is the coordinator of this wedding, one is the bride herself, and the other is the chief priest... so this wedding is a wedding in front of a god. , Lu Mingfei wants to worship his bride and two uncles?

Lu Mingfei didn't know what the priests of the Sheqiba family thought, but he didn't have any objections except that he thought it was a bit funny. After all, many Japanese customs were borrowed from China. They came from hearsay and were not comprehensive. , combined with the perverted nature of the Yamato nation, eventually formed a cultural system with four different characteristics... It can only be said that the Japanese are so absurd to begin with.

The "Pure Purification Ceremony" was carried out in this main hall. The person performing the ritual at this stage was the old wine priest. The old man meticulously recited the ancient testimonies handed down from the Muromachi era with a solemn tone. Lu Mingfei and Eri Yi Standing in front of him, casual priests stood on both sides of them, shaking white flags in their hands. Dark brown powder fell from the sky, and was shaken from the flags to Lu Mingfei and Eli Yi. On the body, fine linen is often used for purification in weddings before gods.

"The so-called love is a rare miracle in the world."

The "reciting the congratulations" section lasted about fifteen minutes. When Fengjian Ruri finished reciting the last line of congratulations, Fengjian Ruri asked the accompanying guests to sit down on the futons that had been prepared.

Lu Mingfei looked at the wine in the golden cup. He could already smell the aroma of wine. This thing was a real strong drink, and unlike the small bottles in front of the guests' wine tables, this golden cup was A full cup, at least two taels!

His head felt a little hot. This was Lu Mingfei's second reaction. First he drank a lot of strong alcohol, then a lot of foreign wine, and now he drank stronger alcohol. His stomach was really a little swollen, like a ball of fire. Fever...Lu Mingfei hoped that he would not be sent for gastric lavage tonight.

"Our wish is to find the only thing we cherish in the vast world,"

"Day after day, small happiness,"

But if you keep drinking...

"Overlapping, slowly walking trajectories,"

It's a bit spicy. It's indeed a high-alcohol spirit. This was Lu Mingfei's first reaction. Moreover, he always felt that the wine had a strange taste. He couldn't put it in words. It seemed like a little... something else had been mixed into the wine. what.

Well, it's no wonder that my uncle-in-law, after all, he had left a note at the wine rack on the shrine just now to remind him not to drink too much. It was because he was too indulgent to Eri... How could he not indulge her? Anyone who marries such a beautiful and adorable daughter-in-law would be indulgent!

Isn't it just two taels of wine? In order to marry Hui Liyi, two hundred taels is no problem!

drink!

Under the guidance of Fengjian Liuli, Lu Mingfei and Eriyi exchanged wine glasses in a harmonious manner, and then drank the wine in one gulp in front of all the guests, and there was a neat round of applause.

Next comes the part of "reciting the congratulations". The officiant takes the lead in reciting the congratulations in front of him, and everyone stands up to recite the congratulations. The officiant of this wedding is Kazama Ruri, and he recites the congratulations in a calm and unhurried tone. It was very orderly, and it didn't look like it was the first time to host a wedding in front of a god. Instead, it looked like a seasoned yet young and overly young gold medal ceremony.

Lu Mingfei was considered to be extremely drunk even if he didn't get drunk on the spot, but to be honest, he drank so much wine just now, and his stamina was a bit too much. His head felt a little dizzy now. Lu Mingfei first At first, he thought it was because he was so excited about marrying Eriki that he was a little dizzy, but after shaking his head and feeling dizzy, he realized that he had drunk too much, but it was far from the point where he lost his mind.

"Drinking again..." Lu Mingfei muttered in his heart. He and Eliyi had secretly drank a lot of wine before coming here, and they still couldn't find a place to go to the toilet. Now their stomachs were still bloated.

The most important thing is that Lu Mingfei has a good drinking capacity, but this is also due to his original physical fitness, not because of his rich drinking experience. Lu Mingfei is no longer the bad boy who was not in social situations before. He didn't need to drink to drown his sorrows if necessary. On the shrine just now, he drank up all the high-alcohol shochu that Eri didn't like to drink. Although the foreign wines behind him were not high-alcohol, he Drinking is a bit too mixed. People who drink frequently know that low-alcohol or high-alcohol wine may not necessarily make you drunk no matter how much you drink. But if the wine is mixed with Coke, Sprite, and Red Bull, the most terrifying thing is that it is mixed with a low alcohol content. It is difficult for even the best drinker to withstand other types of alcohol.

Next is the "Oath Cup Ceremony", in which the priest provides "sacred wine" to the groom and the bride, and the couple exchange wine cups in front of the god and swear to be husband and wife.

The young and beautiful witches held trays with shining golden cups in their hands. They walked slowly to Lu Mingfei and Eri Yi, and picked up the golden cups before Lu Mingfei and Eri Yi. Then he retreated silently.

Eliyi wouldn't feel uncomfortable. This was Lu Mingfei's third reaction besides subconscious physiological reactions.

It's not that Lu Mingfei thinks that Hui Liyi's drinking capacity is not as good as his own. Lu Mingfei knows that Hui Liyi is a good drinker. With Hui Liyi's physique, alcohol may not be able to numb her nerves, but Lu Mingfei I also know that Eri doesn't like drinking this kind of strong liquor. After all, the "spicy" taste is for pain, not taste. When she secretly drank alcohol on the shando just now, Eri expressed her rejection of such high-alcohol spirits. Now it's time to change With a higher degree, she wouldn't throw the cup on the spot, would she?

Lu Mingfei looked at Eryi with some anxiety, but he was stunned the next moment. There was no rejection, and there was no sign of rejection at all. Eriyi drank all the wine in the glass in one breath and even smacked her mouth twice in a low voice, as if she had just eaten some delicacies from the mountains and seas or drank some fine wine. Jade Dew.

Damn it, what's with that unfinished expression?

Could it be that you drank too much high-strength liquor just now and have become accustomed to it? So you get used to it too quickly, right?

Will Eriyi become a female drunkard in the future?

Just as Lu Mingfei was thinking this, two more young witches came over, holding the same trays as before. On the trays were placed the same golden lamps. The only difference was that this time, the golden lamps were The wine inside is no longer a white and slightly turbid liquid, but a crimson liquid, as transparent as ruby, and you can smell the faint sweetness of grapes and the aroma of fruity wood.

"Again...again?" Lu Mingfei was stunned.

"Lu Jun, this is the rule of the wedding before the gods." Fengjian Liuli reminded Lu Mingfei in a low voice, "During the 'Cup Ceremony', the bride and groom are theoretically required to perform a complete three-hundred-and-thirty-nine ceremony. Let’s have a drink.”

"Young Master?" Lu Mingfei's voice changed a little. He suspected that he either drank too much or had an ear problem, "You mean Seizing Young Master?"

"Lu Jun, I also said that it is theoretical. My brother will not arrange such a violent link according to the old customs." Fengjian Liuli comforted Lu Mingfei, "The time reserved for this link is not too long. So you don't have to worry."

Hearing Fengjian Liuli say this, Lu Mingfei's expression returned to normal. Otherwise, he would have drank from such a big cup three hundred and thirty-nine times, two taels at a time... that would be more than forty kilograms of wine, even if People like Eri can become drunk even if they are drunk.

"Then how much should we drink?" Lu Mingfei asked Fengjian Liuli in a low voice.

"The specific number of cups is not written in the process book. I can't give you an accurate number." Fengjian Liuli said, "But Mr. Lu, believe me. This is a wedding that my brother has prepared for you. His purpose is not to torture you." You guys, to put it bluntly, even if he tortures you, he can’t torture Eri, so the amount of alcohol you drink should be within the limit.”

"Kazema-kun, you are also very good at comforting people..." Lu Mingfei complained feebly, and then picked up the new gold cup from the witch's tray.

Sure enough, it was wine, or good cognac. Lu Mingfei smelled a very authentic and rich fruity aroma. After staying with a guy like Caesar Fingel for a long time, he also developed some appreciation for good wine.

However, after spending more time with Fingel, Lu Mingfei had a better appreciation of whether the pistol legs were ordered this morning or overnight.

"Huh? Why aren't you leaving? Did you get the wrong drink?" Lu Mingfei blinked when he saw the young witch still holding the tray in front of him.

"Your...other cup...hasn't been given to me yet," the young miko stammered.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm a little dizzy after drinking too much wine." Lu Mingfei put the previous cup back, still thinking, if this cup was made of pure gold, people wouldn't misunderstand that he wanted to get married. A cup?

Looking at the jewel-like crystal clear wine, Lu Mingfei sighed in his heart, uncle, uncle, either serve them all with hard liquor or all with foreign wine. Drinking alternately like this is very dangerous, you know. I do not know!

After drinking the glass of wine with Eriyi, Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows slightly. The taste of the wine was very honest. Once he drank it, it was a rare treasure on the market. But it was precisely because Lu Mingfei was very fond of this kind of wine. He knows better, so he can taste more clearly the... faint smell mixed in the wine.

It was definitely not his imagination, because he also tasted it in the last glass, but it was masked by the spiciness of the strong wine. This time the wine tasted sweet, so the peculiar smell was easier to feel.

How should I put it, it's not a bad taste, it's just weird, not bitter, not sweet, not spicy, just a little... salty? But it's nowhere near as salty as table salt.

The key is that after drinking this time, the burning feeling in the stomach became stronger. I drank half a catty of Erguotou but it didn’t have the same effect. I don’t know if it was my imagination. Lu Mingfei felt a little dazed and felt all over his body. The blood flow rate up and down has become faster.

Lu Mingfei glanced at Hui Liyi. He didn't know how Hui Liyi felt, but he could see that Hui Liyi's eyes lit up after drinking the glass of wine. It seemed that a drink would be more in line with her wishes, but this way Eri had already drank a lot of sake, and she was almost tired of it before they left the shrine.

And what’s a little strange is that Eriyi’s face has a subtle flush... This is too weird. With Eriyi’s physique, she should be completely immune to alcohol. No matter how much alcohol she drinks, she will not be able to It doesn't bother my face at all, but what's going on with this sudden blush?

Lu Mingfei's face became a little complicated when he thought of the strange smell in the wine... Uncle, you didn't add anything weird to your sister's wine, right?

The audience burst into applause again, and the two young mikos once again brought the trays, delivered the brand-new wine to Lu Mingfei and Eli Yi, and took away the old cups.

This time there was amber wine in the cup, and Lu Mingfei smelled a faint fragrance of grain.

Whiskey, a high degree of British distilled liquor.

Lu Mingfei and Hui Liyi drank the glass of wine at the same time. The wine flowed down the esophagus and into the stomach. Lu Mingfei felt that the blood in his body was about to burn.
