The long wind brings songs, which echo in the prosperous lake capital. The sun sets slightly in the west, casting light and shadow on the magnificent Great Temple. Hundreds of thousands of celebrating crowds flowed across the capital like a tide, cheering with joy. The capital city in the lake was roaring with joy, but only the palace and temple area were solemn, where the sacred wedding ceremony was being held.
The grand wedding ceremony started in the early morning, and half a day passed before I knew it. Two thousand Eagles and Jaguars lined up inside and outside the King's Palace, wearing armor and leading troops, with solemn and solemn expressions. The envoys from various countries stood in the summer sunshine. Although their bodies were covered with sweat, they still had blessing smiles on their faces.
As the host of the wedding, Kakamazin looked solemn and sang the speech loudly. It is not until this time that the sacred wedding officially begins.
"...The rain brings good news! The older woman comes from the east with a rope of agave to connect the two parties in marriage!"
Soon, surrounded by several noble ladies, an old woman dressed in luxurious clothes and wearing feathers walked slowly from the east. She is about fifty years old, with a kind expression and a smile, holding a ceremonial rope. In the spotlight of everyone, she first came to Kakamazin and smiled gently.
"Good job, my wife!"
Kakamazin lowered his head slightly and handed over the important task of asking about the intentions of both parties to his wife.
In Mexican weddings, asking about intentions is the first step, and the messenger must be a respected old woman. Typically, this happens before the wedding. Although there was a complete ceremony process in this royal wedding, most of the aspects were just a formality.
"I obey you, my husband."
The old woman bowed her head in return. Then, she continued to walk forward slowly, arrived in front of the King's Palace, and bowed to King Avit on the second floor. Her status is noble enough. She is both the elder of the royal family and the messenger of the wedding. She does not need to kneel to the king.
Avitt stood up and bowed his head solemnly in return.
Then, the old woman smiled slightly and asked loudly.
"Alyssa's respected father! Pure Alyssa is the most beautiful lotus in the royal family. Young Shulot is the most heroic hummingbird in the royal family... May I ask, can the beautiful lotus bloom for the heroic hummingbird? "
Hearing this, Avitt looked complicated and lowered his eyes slightly. After a few breaths, he nodded in agreement as the girl's parent.
"Can!"
The old woman stood where she was and saluted again. Then she asked again loudly.
"Xulot's respected teacher! Young Shulot is the most heroic hummingbird in the royal family. The pure Alyssa is the most beautiful lotus in the royal family... May I ask if the heroic hummingbird can perch on the beautiful lotus? ?”
Avitt pursed his lips and nodded calmly. This time, it was as Teacher Shulot.
"Can!"
These two inquiries are roughly equivalent to the alliance in traditional Chinese weddings, one asking the woman and one asking the man. In the Mexican Union, the bride's decision-maker is her father; the groom's decision-maker is not his father, but his official teacher.
Therefore, Avitt, as Shulot's official teacher, was also the decision-maker for both men and women in this wedding.
It is worth mentioning that according to the tradition of the alliance, a person's formal teacher is extremely important, and there is often only one. The status of a teacher is even higher than that of a father, and he can decide many major issues for students. Therefore, at the beginning, at the request of his grandfather, Shulot recognized Avitt as his teacher, which was equivalent to an extremely close alliance. For the same reason, Avitt wanted to monopolize the identity of Shulot's teacher, but Orosh quietly gave up this identity.
"The Lord God has witnessed it, and the ancestors have blessed it! This is a sacred marriage, and this is the covenant!"
The old woman shouted loudly and announced to everyone. Then, she slowly turned around and walked towards Kakamazin, giving a slight greeting.
"Live up to your trust, my husband."
"Thank you, my wife."
The two of them behaved solemnly and behaved as expected. The couple has been married for thirty or forty years. At this time, they serve as the host and messenger of the wedding respectively, which also symbolizes the example of a long-term marriage. Once united in holy royal marriage, it can only be separated by death!
Then, Kakamazin turned around slightly and sang loudly in the direction of the great temple.
"...The gods are watching the world! The wedding of the distinguished descendants of gods requires the divination of the priests and elders to obtain the blessings of the gods!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a valet who was good at running ran out of the king's palace with a torch in his hand and rushed towards the great temple. He brought two wooden boards with pictures engraved on them. On the wooden boards were the graphic names of both parties to the marriage, for the temple priests to divine good and bad luck.
Soon, complicated rituals were held in the great temple. The blazing sacred fire was ignited, and curls of divine smoke rose. The high priest wore black sacrificial robes, and together with five priests and elders, sang and danced around the holy fire.
Two wooden boards with names engraved on them were thrown into the fire, burning and turning into smoke, telling the Lord God the identities of the two parties to the marriage. Then, a precious tiger bone and a rare eagle bone were thrown into the fire at the same time, causing different cracks to appear.
The simple and desolate chants of the priests and elders echoed in the temple area, accompanied by the blessings of the low-level priests. A sacred atmosphere lingered in everyone's hearts. After a while, the high priest, wearing special gloves, took out the two bones from the fire. He looked at it carefully for a moment and then announced happily.
"Good luck! The Lord God has sent down his will to bless the holy marriage!"
"Good luck! Blessings from the Lord God! Good luck!..."
The attendant once again held the torch and ran all the way from the big temple. As he ran, he shouted loudly, announcing to everyone the good news of the divination, and arrived in front of the king's palace in a moment.
"The high priest personally divined, and the marriage will be auspicious! The sacred marriage, blessed by the Lord God, will continue from the human world to the kingdom of God!"
Kakamatsu announced loudly with a smile on his face. Then, with a gentle wave of his hand, several guards held torches high and rushed to various parts of the capital. They wanted to tell the whole city the same good news.
Mexicans believe in ghosts and gods and are superstitious about omens. Before important events, priests were consulted for divination. Generally speaking, the results of divination are generally good, good, small, and last, and rarely bad. If there are bad luck in wedding divination, the wedding will be delayed or even cancelled. Of course, today's royal wedding will be divined personally by the high priest with the highest status and the most powerful power. This will never happen!
As the messenger's good news spread, bursts of joy echoed throughout the lake capital. Kakamazin smiled kindly, raised his hands in the air, and declared in a deep voice again.
"...The warriors surrender to the royal family! The sacred royal wedding will bring about the continuation of divinity and the glory of the royal family. Noble warriors, come forward and dance to celebrate!"
"Dong dong dong!"
As soon as Kakamazin finished speaking, the low sound of war drums sounded in the palace area. A thousand eagle warriors and a thousand jaguar warriors, all wearing gorgeous battle uniforms, danced fiercely to the rhythm of drums with their war sticks and shields.
"Ho! Ho! Praise the Lord God! Praise the King! Praise the Holy Wedding!..."
Two thousand noble warriors danced while making roars and shouts, singing the glory of the king and praising the royal wedding.
In the Mexican Alliance, only the most noble royal weddings can be celebrated with dances by noble battle groups. This link also shows the majesty of the royal family and reflects the king's control over the warriors! Ordering thousands of eagle and jaguar warriors to perform dances for the wedding of the princess and His Highness would have been impossible for a weak king.
Avitt sat high on the throne, looking at the noble warriors performing the dance, and nodded with satisfaction. He held the strong divine staff tightly and felt the supreme royal power in his hand, more than any of the previous kings of the Alliance! The pride of controlling the world surged in his chest, slightly weakening the sadness of his daughter's marriage.
Listening to the passionate war songs of the noble warriors, the envoys from various states in front of the king's palace changed their colors. The royal power of the Mexica Alliance became more and more powerful, and the king of the Mexica people became more noble and dangerous.
The warrior's dance lasted for a full quarter of an hour before the passionate drums gradually subsided. And the next link will be even more shocking.
Kakamazin looked solemn and raised his scepter high. He stared in the direction of the Great Temple, as if waiting for something.
"Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!..."
Thirty-six wooden cannons were fired at the same time, roaring like thunder toward the vast sky! Continuous thunder spread all the way to Lake Texcoco, causing the entire capital to fall into silence.
Hearing the sound of the cannon, Kakamazin nodded slightly. Then, with a majestic expression, he announced loudly.
"...The Lord God sends down the power of flying! The glory of the Lord God spreads from the sky, and the sacred wedding is held on the earth. And between heaven and earth, there is the heart of the god flying high. That is the coming of a miracle!"
There was silence everywhere, and the vast capital city became silent for an instant. Shortly after the sound of the cannon, a huge flying strange object slowly rose from the top of the more than 60-meter-long temple under the watchful eyes of hundreds of thousands of people.
The huge strange object is shaped like a ball, with a bright red heart painted on the surface, the emblem of the main god engraved around it, and a burning fire at the bottom. Then, it flew higher and higher, flying into the sky amid countless looks of shock, awe, admiration, yearning, fear and dullness!
"Ah! What is this?!"
"It's the heart of the gods!..."
"The Lord God sends down his divine power to bless the sacred wedding!"
Seeing the miracle flying into the sky, the people in the capital turned pale with awe, and the envoys from various countries were shocked and silent. After a moment, thunderous shouts suddenly broke out, even more intense than the sound of cannons!
"A miracle, a miracle! A miracle has come!..."
Under the miracle, hundreds of thousands of people shouted in awe, roared with excitement, and even howled in fear! ...The priests of the community shouted loudly, telling the blessings of the Lord God and leading thousands of believers. Not long after, the surging voices of hundreds of thousands of people gradually gathered and turned into fanatical and pious chants!
"Praise the Lord God! God bless the wedding! Praise the Lord God!! God bless the wedding!!..."
