Clothes and brocade night travel [comprehensive]

Chapter 38

Diarmuid's adoptive father, Angus, has repeatedly taught him "don't hunt wild boars" from a certain day, and his partners have never let him participate in any hunting activities against wild boars. Wild boars are separated as well.

In the end, he did indeed die under the wild boar's fangs.

While killing the wild boar, he was keenly aware of the druid curse on the wild boar. Although he was only a warrior, his adoptive father was a god with powerful magic, so he could tell that it was a curse aimed at him. A protracted curse of resentment.

But he had no way of knowing where the curse came from.

Recalling carefully now, Angus's teaching of "don't hunt wild boars" began the day after Lord Finn was a guest here.

For Diarmuid, it was not a good time in childhood.

The younger brother who grew up with him disappeared, and the chief steward who was very kind to him disappeared. His father never appeared in Brunerborn again. Be by his side and take care of him more tenderly.

At the very beginning, the banquet was very happy. Angus warmly entertained his adopted son's biological father and uncle, brought out fine wine, and served delicacies. Priests and maids surrounded them, singing and feasting.

The black-haired boy sat beside Diarmuid and looked at the new guests curiously. He was born cute and was the only son of the chief executive of Bruna Bonn. Brothers, priests, maidservants and bards all surrounded him happily talking and laughing with him, pouring wine for him and Diarmuid. The boy blushed and kept hiding behind Diarmuid , with a giggle of joyful laughter.

Everything was so beautiful, until Diarmuid noticed Tang En, his father's cold and disgusted eyes on the boy, and he knew that it was time to take his brother and leave the banquet.

Diarmuid took his younger brother away from the banquet and returned to his own room. He knew that the boy was still nostalgic for the excitement of the banquet, but he could only harden his heart to let him stay in the house and not go out until the banquet was over, otherwise Big things are going to happen.

The boy obediently nodded and agreed, but Diarmuid always felt a little uneasy, so he stayed in his brother's house to protect him.

On one side is the father who hasn't seen him once in several years, causing troubles everywhere and hardly giving him any care, and on the other side is the cute and lively younger brother who has taken care of him since he was a child. Diarmuid chose the latter without hesitation.

That was the end of Diarmuid's memory of that day, but in the present dream he saw the continuation of that day--a boy who was awakened by the noise of a feast outside in the middle of the night was no match for that Tempted, he slipped out of his sleeping brother's arms quietly, forgot his warning, opened the door and ran to the banquet venue.

Everyone welcomed him with a smile. When Angus asked about Diarmuid's whereabouts, the boy said that his brother was tired and fell asleep in the room.

The banquet was really lively and happy. The boy drank a little wine and ran around the campfire with a smile on his face. Everyone danced and sang beside him and treated him very kindly.

The inexperienced boy didn't notice that Tang En, who was sitting not far away, looked at him with eyes as cold as ice, as vicious as the fangs of a poisonous snake, burning with endless anger.

Soon, the tragedy happened. Finn's two hounds fought for a piece of meat. They were two big and fierce hounds. They hunted with Finn all the year round, and they were powerful enough to fight brown bears and wild wolves. , sometimes even the master's order can't stop them from fighting.

Finn and the others stood up and prepared to subdue them, while the women and bards on the scene ran away as far as possible to avoid being affected by the battle.

After the chaos subsided, the boy's body was found beside the Hound.

The steward thought that the hound killed his child, so he asked Finn: "I only have such a son, but he was killed, and I suffered so much. How will you compensate me? Finn, what do you want?" How to compensate me?"

Finn looked at the boy's body and said, "Just wait and see, if there is any paw print or bite mark of a hound on his body, I am willing to compensate you until you are satisfied."

But the boy was not there. He was wearing a white robe and a pendant given to him by Diarmuid. He closed his eyes as if he had fallen asleep, and his body was not injured at all.

"Who killed him then?" the chief steward roared angrily, "Finn, I know you have the magic of knowing the truth, tell me, who killed him?! In the name of the cave of Crook'an, tell me! "As he said, his fingertips burst into dazzling brilliance, attached to Finn, and he cast the druid's poison on Finn.

Finn asked for a basin of water and a chessboard. His hands were soaked in the water, and soon he saw the truth of the matter. Finn raised his eyes, looked expectantly at the Chief Steward, and sighed: " Although I already know who it is, I can't bear to reveal his name, if you wish, how about I give you a fair verdict on this matter?"

"No, I refuse," said the steward. "Tell me, tell me the murderer's name!"

Finn sighed, and asked again if he would leave the matter to him.

After repeating this several times, Finn still reluctantly told the truth of what he saw.

It turned out that amidst the chaos, the boy fled in a panic and ran towards Tang En's direction. Tang En watched with cold eyes the short boy who had just reached his knees slipping under his crotch. Before he could even make a sound, his fragile neck was pinched and he lost his breath.

The sound of broken bones was not noticed by anyone in this chaos. After Dunn kicked the boy's body to the hounds, he walked to Finn nonchalantly and helped separate the two hounds.

The murderer who killed the boy was Tang En.

The chief manager said: "I will take revenge on you, and use your son to inflict equal pain." After he finished speaking, he turned and left. The boy's body was protected by magic and no one could touch it.

Angus stepped down from his seat and punched Tang En in the face. Although he is famous for magic, he also possesses good martial arts skills. His punch seemed to knock Tang En's head off, "Dang En , Dill will be ashamed of you."

"I just killed the son of a supervisor." Tang En retorted, poking his neck, "a child my wife had with someone else."

"That's why I, the nameless chief steward, will take revenge on you. Dunn, son of Odina, I want you to experience my pain too." The chief steward came back with the druid's staff, He touched the boy's corpse with his staff, turning it into a wild boar without mane, ears, or tail. "I grant you a prohibition: you will lead Diarmuid, son of Dunn, grandson of Odina, to the path of death; your own life cannot be longer than his."

The wild boar who accepted the curse jumped up and ran out of the gate without knowing where he was going. The chief steward, full of resentment, also left the banquet hall that broke his heart.

"Twain, you are no longer welcome at Bruna Bonn, please leave after dawn."

After leaving such a sentence, Angus no longer went to see the unrepentant Tang En. He walked to Diarmuid's house, and the boy was sleeping soundly. He had no idea that he had lost forever the love he had grown up with. Brother, bear the curse of pain, and all of this comes from his father.

"My favorite adopted son, Diarmuid Odina..." Angus gently guided him into a deeper sleep, "I will give you a ban in the name of the gods, and you will not hunt wild boars to protect you." your life."

The moonlight shone on the sleeping boy's face, and he smiled in his sleep, as if he had some wonderful dream.

It's a pity that in the end, Diarmuid died under the fangs of the wild boar, and his sword pierced through the head of the wild boar, fulfilling the curse of the chief steward.

Far away from Brunner Bonn, there is a place called Turk Mountain. In his dream, Diarmuid saw a river flowing through the mountain, leaving a large pool of dark red blood. Holding a dagger, the bright yellow dagger broke in two and fell under a tree not far away.

The grass was messy and the soil turned up, and there were deep marks on the trees, which were obviously left after an extremely fierce fight. Diarmuiduo suddenly realized that this was the place where he died.

"Have you ever resented Tang En, my child?" An elegant and singing voice came from behind, Diarmuid turned around, and the handsome blond god sat on the stone behind him, with a look of joy and nostalgia Looking at the adopted son whom he hadn't seen for a long time, "Have you ever resented him, because jealousy brought you such a disaster?"

Diarmuid shook his head and said, "Although he only knows how to cause trouble all day long, which made my mother's life difficult; because of anger, I lost my brothers and sisters, but I never resented him." In the meeting with En, the man really gave some love to him who was still young.

It's a pity that Tang En is just a big kid who hasn't got rid of childish emotions in the end, and he's causing trouble to those around him until the end.

So I never hated him, but I never respected him. In Diarmuid's heart, Tang En was probably just a... stranger who was related by blood and kinder than a stranger.

"Then did you ever resent me, my child?" Angus asked again, "Did you ever resent me for failing to protect you and let you die miserably?"

"Master adoptive father..." Diarmuid walked to Angus and sat at his feet like a child, "You raised me up, protected me when I was fleeing, helped me, and reconciled me with Lord Finn." The relationship between you, you love me like my biological father, how can I resent you?"

"Do you resent Finn, resent him for treating you with death, knowing that you have deep difficulties but turning a blind eye?"

"No, my lord father, I never held a grudge against Lord Finn. He was a pathetic victim, and his conduct was beyond reproach."

"My child, I have heard you sing dirges in the wilderness, tell me if you ever hated Granny, hated that she forced you to elope, but betrayed you, hurt you, even returned to Finn's arms after you died ?”

"Yes, adoptive father." Diarmuid replied, "I once resented the princess. I resented her for being selfish, forcing me to stay away from my companions for her own sake, and wandering in the wilderness all day long; I resented her for being frivolous. Made Lord Finn misunderstand that I had an affair with her, and I resented her for being greedy, wanting to be my wife and my king at the same time, such resentment made me sad and painful, but I was helpless."

"So...you still resent her now? Are you dissatisfied and bitterly resent her?"

Diarmuid shook his head and denied without any hesitation: "She chose her path, and I chose mine too. My lord adoptive father, I no longer hate her."

"Death has put everything to an end, my adoptive father, I don't hold grudges against anyone anymore."

"Since you are no longer resentful or suffering, my beloved adopted son Diarmuid Audina, why are you still hesitating?" Angus patted Diarmuid's head, "You reverence the people around you That lord, who admires his superior ability, admires his arrogance, and the mood is not weaker than your admiration for Finn, tell me, why are you still hesitant, even fearful?"

Diarmuid replied, "I admire him, but I worry that it will be an illusion. I follow in his footsteps, but I worry that allegiance will only repeat the same mistakes. That is a monarch who is too unpredictable. I can't see it." Through his heart."

"No one can see through. This is the mystery of human beings." Angus gently ruffled his adopted son's short hair, and said, "Follow your own thoughts, my child, and don't be bound by the past. Remember Live, as long as there are dreams, your adoptive father will always protect you."

……

The sleeping knight leaning against the boulder suddenly opened his eyes.

Under the sky full of stars, a pair of dark golden eyes were filled with the depth of endless night.

On his knees, Kyogokuhiko turned his face sideways, breathed steadily and closed his eyes tightly, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.

"Long time no see..."

The author has something to say: the one with more memory kills, Angus Papa God assists, because of this one, I have read Celtic mythology all day, and now I am in a bad mood

I didn't find out what the name of Diarmuid's younger brother was, so I didn't make it up. Anyway, it was a poor little boy who died soon after appearing on the stage.

The following is the textual research, the resources come from the Internet, welcome to correct me:

1. Twain, Diarmuid's biological father, a professional cheating son, when Diarmuid was born, Twain was exiled because of a quarrel with the members of the Warriors, so Angus brought the child back to Bruna Bonn to raise him .

2. Finn’s water mirror, in some versions, the water mirror is not used, Finn knows the truth with his magic thumb in his mouth.

3. The elegy sung by the Lancers comes from the Book of the Dean of Lismore's poem called "Dilmurd's Rebuke," which reads—

You ruined me, Granny.

You have dishonored the son of Cuvir,

trapped me in pain,

It is an unbearable burden.

I am far from pleasure, far from noise,

Only for a shameful companion;

I have neither beauty nor retinue,

Because you ruined me, Grace.

I am far from pleasure, far from joy,

No more banquets, no more festivals,

No more laughter, no more psalms,

Because you ruined me, Grace.

In the setting, Brother Gun doesn’t have any affection for the princess, he is purely forced, so I used it

4. Granny’s betrayal, that’s a lot. Let’s start with a major premise. On the way to elope with Granny, Brother Gun will leave a piece of raw meat or uncooked food for Finn’s pursuers at the place where he will stay. Fish, indicating that Granny is still innocent, and I treat her as a "sister", but Granny is not a girl who can endure loneliness. She mocked Diarmuid, who abides by etiquette, for not being a man and hooking up with other men .

For example, there is such a passage in the West Highland version of the legend that one day on the way to escape, an old man named Ciofach Maca Ghoill came to their residence, and he sat down and started playing dice games.Grene takes a fancy to him and conspires with him to kill Diarmuid.Diarmuid was chopping a wooden disc at the time, and the old man grabbed him, and he immediately fought back, and the two wrestled.Although the old man was quite strong, Diarmuid finally pinned him to the ground.Seeing that the situation was not good, Granny took a knife and stabbed it into his thigh.So Diarmuid left with injuries, and hid in different caves every day until his hair and beard grew and covered his true face.At this time, he returned home with a raw fish, claiming to borrow a place to grill the fish. (Glenne) gave him a bowl of water to soak his fingers while grilling the fish.Since anything touched by Diarmuid's fingertips smelled like honey, Granny took a bite of the grilled fish and immediately knew it was him. Ciofach and Diarmuid scuffled again, this time Diarmuid killed him and fled. [Note that Brother Gun roasted the fish here, implicitly proving that Granny is not perfect]

Finding Ciofach dead, Grene immediately went after Diarmuid and caught up with him at dawn on the seashore at the foot of the mountain.A heron was neighing in the air, and Diarmuid was heading up the hill when Granny called him to—

"The heron cries in the morning on the top of Goyle, Diarmuid Odina, my love, why is the heron crowing?"

"Oh, Grene, the daughter of the Lord of Ten Thousand Vehicles, never took a step closer to the right path. It seems that her feet were frozen on the frozen ground before she uttered a cry.

"Would you like bread and meat, Diarmuid?" [Note that I mentioned raw meat earlier, this is a veiled offer of dedication]

"I would, if I had."

"I'll give you. Where's the knife?"

"In the scabbard you inserted last time." Diarmuid replied.

The knife was still lodged in Diarmuid's thigh and he had not touched it.Grace pulled the knife out in shame.

Then they made up [manual goodbye

Similar plots have appeared in various versions. In short, it proves that the princess does not have a deep love for Gunge

And after the death of Brother Gun, Granny chose to return to Finn [Then you eloped a ghost before] [Some versions did not mention her at all, and some said that she took her child and swore to avenge Diarmuid, For the sake of the plot, I chose the term of betrayal

5. Regarding why Granny’s geis is so useful, first of all, we need to know that geis can be downloaded to you by others, and the higher the status of the person who downloads it, the stronger the effect [For example, Angus papa’s don’t hunt wild boars]

Granny's father, Commac, is regarded in the Gaelic tradition as the first entrepreneur, legislator and founder of the country. During his reign, he was the supreme king of the whole of Ireland.

So, even if her geis is forced, Brother Gun can only obey [Dianwax
