Chapter 73: Too Hospitable(1/2)
"Zashidler!" The two of them said hello together.
Luo Ning just hung Hada around her neck and sat down with Qian Si's abacus on the cushion next to her.
The Tubo maid with a rosy face and cone bun immediately brought butter tea, barley wine, and lit the incense lampstand.
"Great guest, please use tea."
Under the bright lights, their unique ochre face makeup looks more alien-like.
Nachin took off his ties and only showed his black boots and feet, expressing his closeness to the guests. This attitude really made Luo Ning mutter in his heart.
Master Nachin probably has something to ask for.
Nachin said with a smile: "Aji-Loninla, although we have met for the first time, we seem to be old friends who have not seen each other for many years. If you return to your old friends' manor, don't be polite."
Luo Ning's expression was as familiar as Tubo's words, "That is what the Buddha said. When I saw Aji Naqinra, I felt relaxed like a reunion of clouds and water."
Of course, Luo Ning didn't take the Buddha to heart, but the Tubo people like to listen to such words.
After saying that, he took the initiative to pick up the wine glass, dip his fingers in the wine according to the customs of Tubo, and bounced it in three directions.
This is to respect the three talents of heaven, earth, man, the three treasures of Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha, and also to respect the master.
The owner also picked up the wine glass and dipped it in the wine and played it three times each.
"Aji Luoningla, although you are wearing Xia people's clothes, you are like a real Tubo at this time."
Naqin dressed in a typical Tubo noble dress. She wore a Zanxia hat and a triangular lapel with a left-sided robe. She was wearing a seven-thing about her waist.
What Luo Ning noticed the most was his big insect skin cloud shoulder and the whispering sign on his left arm.
This Naqin leader has a very different origin.
The Tubo state had a "big insect skin system", which, in Luoning's view, was similar to the "yellow jacket" of the Qing Dynasty.
Only warriors will be rewarded with "big insect skin". At the same time, big insect skin is also a title, similar to "Baturu" in Mongolia and Qing dynasties.
But the big insect skin is also divided into levels, and the highest is the big insect skin robe. But Nachin's big insect skin cloud shoulder is also very good.
Moreover, he still confessed!
According to the Tubo system, the brave gave the sixth-class large insect skin, and the wise gave the sixth-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-class large-
The notice board is placed on the left arm, and the materials are different, which distinguish the status and the size of the official position.
Nachin's body sign is made of "Little Seser", third-class!
It is obvious that both the Big Worm Skin and the Little Sese have surpassed the strength of the small officials and eighth-rank monks of the Naqin tribe, and are seriously equipped with high standards.
This is very intriguing.
Nachin seemed to be a bright person. When he saw Luo Ning's eyes staying on his cloud shoulders and the billboard, he took the initiative to explain:
"I am a distant relative of the royal family. When I was a teenager, I served as a small guard in the distant royal city. I was considered to be the attendant of His Majesty Zanpu."
"It's just that I'm stupid like a yak with a martial arts qualification. Then I came to the border and asked for the freedom of a wild horse."
Luo Ning understood. It turned out that Naqin was not only a relative of the Tubo royal family, but also served as a servant of Zanpu.
No wonder he is just a tribe envoy with eighth level cultivation level, and can wear big insect skins and wear small ser.
There are few cultivators in the world, most of them are low-level cultivators of eighth grade and nineth grade, and the seventh grade is a level that they cannot overcome for life.
Just like what Luo Ning is familiar with, many deputy subjects can never be able to survive for a lifetime.
Of course, aristocrats like Nachin will not lack resources, but they are still stuck in the eighth grade after 50, which is a matter of qualifications.
With average qualifications, there is certainly no future in the Tubo royal city where there are many strong people. It is better to come to the remote border and be a lord.
Although such people are far away from the political center, their connections and relationships are not comparable to ordinary lords.
The official is a small official and has low cultivation, but his energy is not small.
No wonder Qian Si has always cursed him.
"It turns out that Aji Natchila was still an old minister of Zamp, and he was disrespectful." Luo Ning said with a caress to his chest.
Of course, the old minister and the attendant were not the same, but the old minister sounded like Nachin to enjoy it.
"You're welcome." Nachin smiled, "How can you compare to you? You are an eighth-grade monk at such a young age. Your qualifications must be very good. The road is like a road to logic, and it's getting wider and wider."
"I heard that Aji Luoningla is still an opera master? In our Tubo, only lamas and nobles who are virtuous can become opera masters."
This is the difference between Daxia and Tubo.
In Daxia, although actors are talented, they are inferior.
It can be seen that Tubo is just the opposite. Tubo actors are respected as opera masters. Only monks, wizards and people from the "Gui Family" are qualified to be opera masters and act.
The secular society of Tubo is divided into two major classes: Gui family and Yong family. The Gui family is aristocrat of all sizes, while the Yu family is serfs and untouchables.
People from mediocre families do not have the qualifications to act on stage, otherwise they will be blasphemy.
The Tubo country equated drama with the "great cause of spreading the Dharma and educating the teachings". Drama masters are like scripture masters and are very respected. Many theaters are located in temples.
The reason why Nachin was so polite to Luoning was that he learned that Luoning was an opera artist.
The host and the guest said a few words, drank a cup of butter tea, and Mr. Nachin put down the tea cup.
Luo Ning knew that the show was here.
"Aji." Nachin's name became closer, "I have one thing, please help me."
Here comes!
Aji, in Tubo language, is almost "Lang" in Xia language, is also similar to Agan in Xianbei language, and Anda in Mongolian language. But it is not exactly the same.
Luo Ning also put down the teacup and said in a humble manner: "I am just an incompetent guest. If there is really anything that can help you, it is my honor."
His tone kept a distance.
What do you know what the other party wants to help him.
But the other party acted in such a low position as the lord and the position of the lord, so things must be extraordinary.
Naqin said straight to the point: "Aji, this year is the Year of the Wood Rat (Tubo Calendar), and the Schedun Festival is particularly grand. At that time, the entire Shunzhou will hold a unified show."
The Schedon Festival is one of the most important festivals in the Tubo country, because it must be performed for several days, and is also called the Grand Theater Festival.
Especially the Schedon Festival (Grand Opera Festival) in the Year of the Wood Rat, it is the most grand.
Naqin continued: "At that time, the blue and white-faced opera troupes in Shunzhou will participate in the Schedon Festival in Dajinpeng Temple, perform on stage and entertain the Three Treasures."
"Shunzhou Jiedushi, Jie'er's theories, and other domains (local officials), as well as the lamas of Dajinpeng Temple, Yanshi Temple, Longyin Temple, generals, lords, etc., will all attend the grand event."
"Every army, every temple, and every lord of the family will send a representative opera troupe. I had already hired a white-faced opera troupe and promised me to sing "Prince Northam" or "King Gesar". The protagonist opera maker is also an eighth-rank monk."
"But for some reason, the opera master became a person without faith. Her promise was like a love word from a fickle woman, and the wind changed."
"She doesn't want to represent the Naqin family, but represents Yanshi Temple. Humph, the lamas of Yanshi Temple..."
"In our Tubo, the main actors of the opera masters are all monks. For a while, where can I find another monk who is an opera master?"
"So, I want to invite Aji, you, to represent my Naqin family, to participate in the performance at Dajinpeng Temple. If you don't expect to win, you won't lose the face of the Naqin family!"
Luo Ning was relieved when she heard this. It turned out that it was just a show.
But he frowned, looked embarrassed and said:
"I'm very willing to help. But... I'm acting in the summer opera, Tubo's southern mask and white mask, I'm afraid I can't act."
Naqin shook his head and said, "You can perform well! You are either an eighth-grade witch cultivator, or an eighth-grade witch cultivator. And Tubo opera masters are mostly witch cultivators and Buddhist cultivators."
"If you want to act well, you will be asking God for yourselves. I believe this is not difficult for Aji."
"Although the summer opera is different from the Tubo opera, the Schedun Festival is on the first day of the first day of the Jujue Moon (July) and today is the 20th day of the Jingyue (May) month. There are still 40 days left to prepare, and it is still time."
What he said makes sense. Xia Opera and Tubo Opera are both ways of acting, and the essential difference is not big. After more than a month of preparation, I can fully play the Tubo Opera genre.
The reason why Naqin is difficult to find someone to replace him is that Tubo opera masters are all monks and have different identities. They can't just catch an ordinary actor.
Moreover, this Schöton Festival drama is very important, and the winner will receive special benefits. Especially for Nachin, it is even more important.
Seeing Luo Ning hesitating, Nachin could only promise: "As long as Aji can help me... If I can get the top three, I will give you a manor of hundreds of serfs as a thank you."
The manor of hundreds of serfs!
Qian Si was stunned. This thank you gift is too heavy!
Luo Ning smiled and shook her head, "Aji Naqinla, I walk in the world to act, not for money and wealth, but for the sake of my wish."
He knew that the drama on the Schedon Festival must have special significance to the Nachin family.
The opera master invited by Naqin changed his mind and turned to serve Yanshi Temple. It is hard to say that there is no conspiracy. Could it be that the Naqin family and Yanshi Temple had a festival?
Naqin said: "You must know that although there are millions of Xia people in Shunzhou, they are not allowed to perform Xia operas. They are not allowed to wear Xia people's clothes and clothes. They are only allowed to wear Xia people's clothes and clothes to worship their ancestors on New Year's Day."
"Aji, when you come to Tubo to perform summer opera, it is not allowed for all levels of domains and lamas."
"However, I can help you get a missionary document and apply for a show, and you can tour in Tubo."
Qian Siyuan looked at Luo Ning and couldn't help but say in his heart: "You are not willing to agree to the manor of hundreds of serfs, plus the documents of the jokes!"
Luo Ning nodded and nodded, "Aji's trust makes me ashamed. If I don't agree to your request to be entrusted to me, then I will definitely feel ashamed."
