Chapter 38
India Everywhere . Religious people will organize the Dabbousen Festival every year, this festival originally originated in India, but because of some piercing and other more cruel traditional rituals, instead, it is difficult to see in India.
However, it has become a legal holiday after being introduced to Southeast Asia, although non-religious. Although non-believers can not participate in some ceremonial activities, but the spectators to join in the fun is no problem.
The most important celebration of the festival is the chariot procession, which carries the idol of Lord Mruka through the city, stopping constantly to receive flowers, fruits, incense and betel leaves from thousands of devotees.
“Mruka is the god of war and evil in Hinduism. Mruka is the god of war and the nemesis of evil in Hinduism, and has many followers.” Yue Qi leaned down and whispered in Qing Li’s ear.
His breath gently caressed Qing Li’s cheek, stirring up a piece of goosebumps, Qing Li looked up at him, “Why don’t I just lean on my crutches.”
Yue Zhi is afraid of affecting the recovery of Qing Li’s calf, specially let the west pole sent a wheelchair over, pushing her to walk in the crowd, it is a little difficult, so he began to tell Qing Li about the history of the Dabao Sen Festival.
Qing Li knows, now on the surface only two of them, in fact, the surrounding crowd is still standing in the loaded other companions, overhead several drones, there must be a Xin Gota not far away from the roof of the building to control, used to grasp the surrounding movements of the.
Comprehensive various considerations, she is actually very reluctant in front of other people to show Yue Zhi to their excessive special treatment.
Cui De things she has not yet to solve, but has been stabbed in the heart, everyone is the same, are born into death in the work of life, if someone thinks it is unfair, like Cui De also betrayed Yue Zhi how to do?
This time the thing finally just she was seriously injured, has been considered a very good result, but will not be so lucky every time, the most backbone of the most core of the security team out of the problem, which is very fatal to Yue Zhi.
Yue Zhi looked around, “Indeed, there are more and more people, sitting in a wheelchair the line of sight is blocked, can’t see anything.” He leaned over and looked at Qingli’s eyes, “Are you really okay, don’t force yourself.”
“It’s okay, if it wasn’t for the fear of affecting the recovery of the tendons, I could even do without the crutches.” Qingli said.
Yue Zhi then put his arm around her waist and helped the person up, “Then stand up, watch the parade for a while and then go back, don’t stand for too long.”
“Uh-huh.” Qingli did her best to ignore the hot sensation coming from her waist.
Suddenly, she splashed a few drops of water on her face, and a sweet smell began to spread in the air, and with the occasional sound of smashing, she turned her head to see that people were beginning to smash coconuts on the ground in unison.
“There will be millions of coconuts smashed on the ground this night, supposedly to act as a cleansing agent, a sign that the chariot of the parade is almost here, the parade has been going on for over ten hours elsewhere, this is kind of the last stretch.”
There were just too many people and too much noise, the sound of music, the sound of smashing coconuts and the sound of people mixed together, Yue Zhi had to come infinitely close to Qing Li’s ear to speak, when the people behind him moved and squeezed him forward, his lips gently slid over Qing Li’s ear, leaving a little bit of moistening behind.
In an instant, Qing Li’s entire body bounced like a piece of konjac thrown to the ground, her supple waist showing unprecedented elasticity.
Yue Zhi who was straddling her waist was pulled askew, looking at her and blinking, seemingly completely unaware of the intimate contact just now, “What’s wrong?”
Qing Li felt that her ears were about to burn off, but Yue Zhi frankly made it so that she could only pretend that nothing had happened, turning her head to the side, “Nothing.”
Yue Zhi snorted out a laugh, not being able to hold back he reached out and rubbed Qing Li’s red and burning ears, “Too green A Li, made me embarrassed, sorry, just now it was someone behind me who accidentally touched me.”
“No, it’s fine.”
On the other side, a few people from the West Pole Mongoosema were watching through their cell phones the footage coming in from Singota’s drones and the surveillance he had invaded, taking it all in and exchanging spitballs through their headphones.
“We’re escorting here, these two are flirting pretty fast.” West Pole was on the verge of an outburst as he was jostled around.
Monogram automatically emptied a circle around him as he stood there, no one dared to come near him at all, so he was pleasant, “How nice, flirting in the presence of the gods.”
Singhota said lightly, “The god Mruka isn’t in charge of that.”
Xiji was speechless, “No, will Qingli be too raw, at this rate, in case the two of them roll into a bed tonight, I’m afraid Yue Zhi isn’t even very good at it.”
Menggema immediately thought of a good idea, “Why don’t I send Qingli two tablets for her to learn from?”
Singhota: “I advise you better not, if you send them over you will be treated as sexual . Harassment, the boss won’t let you off the hook.”
Monogram brakes in time and picks up the slack.
The chariot parade was getting closer and closer and the atmosphere was getting higher and higher, Qing Li and Yue Zhi had been squeezed tightly together by the crowd.
Because there were people constantly smashing coconuts to purify the road, and there were also people with milk on their heads as offerings that kept splashing out, everyone’s clothes were almost wet.
The sweet smell of coconuts in the air was also dizzying, Qing Li took a deep breath, the arms around her waist that she had almost ignored suddenly tightened, and her entire body leaned into Yue Zhi’s arms, “Sir?”
“Tired, put all your strength on me and let your legs rest.” Yue Zhi said.
Qing Li looked at his face close at hand, her face was expressionless and her mind was in the wrong place, “Uh-huh.”
It wasn’t that she hadn’t been this close to Yue Zhi, but it was the first time that she experienced an itchy feeling of dissatisfaction, it seemed that this wasn’t enough, just being close to Yue Zhi and snuggling up in each other’s arms wasn’t enough, it was as if she was longing for an even more intimate contact, but she herself couldn’t think of what exactly that was.
The silver chariot finally came to this last stretch of road, cheers rose and fell around it, interspersed with drums and music.
The attention of the wandering Qingli was finally drawn to it, and luckily she was tall enough to take in the entire parade.
She paid more attention to the believers in the procession behind her than the car with the statue of the God of War at the very front that looked gorgeous, but was actually not very delicately crafted.
Those men had undergone piercings on their cheeks, lips, and even tongues, with long metal braziers, some even with more than one.
Other men were naked, with many small iron hooks like fishhooks passed through the skin behind them, each hook tied with a rope, all of which was held in the left hand of the man behind them, who held a whip in his right hand and drove those in front of him like cattle, while others had heavy lemon-apple and other fruits or small metal teapots hanging from each hook, plunging the pierced skin downwards with it.
The key that was not one or two or seven or eight, but at least a dozen or two dozen hooks, worn in several rows across the back. Such a parade of people could not be seen at a glance, and there were constantly joining, the scene was very shocking, so many foreign tourists looked at the pain, simply can not see straight.
Qing Li couldn’t understand and subconsciously murmured, “Why do they have to be like this, don’t they hurt?”
Yue Zhi almost held her whole in his arms, his chin was pressed against the top of her head, so when he heard this whispered query, he lowered his head again and explained to her, “India . A lot of the teachings of the religion are very dehumanizing and harsh, and they believe that the god Mruka is with them and won’t let them feel pain. And I’ve heard that they don’t bleed nor scar their bodies, and see it as a miracle.”
“How is it possible ……” Aonashi clearly all saw someone’s wounds bleeding, just because of the makeup of the oil color is not so obvious, are all flesh and mortal, how can they not be injured.
“Those who can have the courage to do so are honored by the congregation around them, they seem to hold in high esteem and glorify this kind of courage in accepting the torment of suffering.”
“What is there to glorify about suffering, suffering never needs to be glorified.” Qing Li faintly lowered her eyes and pressed herself against Yue Zhi’s body, “Let’s go, sir, I want to go back.”
Yue Zhi gave her somewhat wet hair a touch, “Well, you’ve been out for too long and you’re tired.” Then he crouched down slightly in front of Qing Li, “I’ll carry you.”
Qing Li should have refused, no matter what, she shouldn’t let Yue Zhi do this kind of thing for her, but looking at the broad back in front of her, it was as if she had lost her mind, she gently covered it.
Yue Zhi himself was also a bit surprised, when he reacted the words had already been said, when he carried the person on his back, he felt that it was nothing, but instead had an inexplicable sense of fulfillment.
He turned the person on his back upside down and pinched Qing Li’s thighs, “Too thin.”
Qing Li did not say anything, she pressed on Yue Zhi s back and gently closed her eyes …… Dabao Sen Festival, really so short.
They walked out against the crowd, and soon retreated to the outside of the crowded crowd, Xiji had already parked his car and waited there, looking at the scene in front of him, he resisted the urge to take out his cell phone to take pictures.
Both of them were almost drenched in coconut water as well, but no one said anything, Yue Zhi helped Qing Li sit directly on the leather seat, “Go back to the hotel.”
Qing Li didn’t know what she was thinking, when she reacted, she had already arrived at the hotel, Yue Zhi pulled her to a suite, “Have a good rest, we’ll go back tomorrow.” After saying that, he was about to leave.
“Wait.” Qing Li softly said, as she pulled Yue Zhi, she herself instead lost her balance and fell into the other party’s arms again.
Their body heat evaporated the moisture inside the coconut, leaving only sticky syrup behind, and the two were about to separate, sticking back together, their faces extremely close, exchanging coconut-filled breaths and looking into each other’s eyes.
No one said anything, and there was no need to say anything, Qing Li ignored the pain in her legs and stood on her tiptoes, sending herself into Yue Zhi’s welcoming lips, gasping for air, their reasoning keeping them apart, but the coconut water pulled out desire-filled silks to entwine the two together again.
They were both wearing short sleeves, though only their arms were exposed, and were pressed together, sweet and arduous, friction unbroken, pulling at each other’s flesh with a painful itch that made them sink.
“Mr. ……” Aonashi felt like she couldn’t breathe, but she still uttered the words, “I can.”
Even if she gave up her dignity and pride as a female warrior, and was reduced to an empty vase in other people’s eyes, just like all the women around the big brother caught in love . Colors, at this moment, she felt that she was willing.
She took Yue Qi’s hand and reached in through the hem of her wide T-shirt, like a naive sacrifice ready to offer herself to the gods, without reservation.
But her hand was grabbed by Yue Zhi’s backhand and stopped at the lower edge of the hem.
No man could resist such a Qing Li, Yue Zhi used up almost all of his stamina, he closed his eyes, calmed his gasp, pulled away, and planted a kiss on the corner of Qing Li’s forehead, “I’m sorry, Ah Li.”
Then he turned and walked out.
Bewildered and confused, Aoshi Ni watched him leave and pinched the hem of her coat, her entire being cold as if she had been thrown on a Siberian ice field.
The belated pain struck suddenly, and she collapsed onto the couch, losing all words.
