Chapter 467
Boom, boom, boom~~
With that said.
The sound of elephant-foot drums came from over there.
The Dai people's elephant-foot drum dance, mixed with a bit of martial arts performance.
It belongs to a type of art that is both good to look at and good to listen to.
It is also a national intangible cultural heritage of Huaxia.
Reba stretched her neck for a couple of glances; she had no interest in the dancers, mainly observing the uniquely shaped elephant-foot drums. She asked curiously, "Elephants don't grow feathers, right?"
Qin Feng's expression: 【Face full of question marks】
Reba continued, "There are even feather patterns decorating the elephant-foot drums."
Qin Feng: "Those are peacock feathers."
At the ceremony about to begin for the Water Splashing Festival.
All elements of Dai national culture are complete.
The water of the Lancangjiang washes away disasters, representing beautiful blessings.
Peacock feathers symbolize good fortune and auspiciousness!
The drumbeats of the elephant-foot drums herald a bountiful harvest and good times for the coming year.
This is the beautiful wish of the Dai compatriots welcoming the new year!
-- 【Is it about to start? Next year I want to go to Xishuangbanna to experience the Water Splashing Festival~】
-- 【In Brother Feng's words, the upcoming ceremony is about to add a blessing buff to the river water!】
-- 【To be honest, Brother Feng is fully equipped, even got a helmet on~】
-- 【It is said that the more water splashed on someone during the Water Splashing Festival, the better their luck will be next year!】
-- 【Although we are all atheists, the more beautiful blessings the better~】
-- 【Is there high energy ahead? Is there any big shot to give a high energy warning!】
-- 【Brother die, this is a live broadcast... where is there a high energy warning.】
Over there, the water-fetching ceremony proceeded slowly.
Roughly, it is fetching water from the Lancangjiang.
The so-called fetching water is just symbolically taking a tiny bit with a Dai pottery jar.
Just like the small flame passed during the Olympics.
Focusing entirely on the sense of ritual!
At the Dai village's New Year's Eve banquet.
Everyone raised their glasses together!
Uncle Yan Dalong simply taught Qin Feng and Reba a sentence.
The content was very simple.
Six words: sei~sei~sei~sei~sei~sei!
In the local language.
It means 'water'.
Water nourishes all living beings, moistens all things; all blessings are contained in the water on this day!
Here, raising glasses together, as if the banquet was ending!
At the same time, it is also the official start of the Water Splashing Festival!
Before Reba could even react.
Yo, splish, splash~~
Amidst a burst of cheerful cheers.
Basins of water were thrown up towards the sky!
Like a downpour of rain~
The Water Splashing Festival officially began!
Reba dove straight into Qin Feng's arms.
Click—
All the protective gear prepared earlier came into use~
Reba smiled and whispered, "My shoes seem to be soaked through already, what should we do next?" Fully armored, wearing a helmet, Reba.
And completely clad in armor!
Ready to launch a Water Splashing Festival counterattack!
Qin Feng replied, "Don't panic, the advantage is mine! I'll take you to see something good!"
