Chapter 28 Section 3 Manas' Teenagers

Before Manas was born, although his father Jakepu was a rich man, he had no heirs, and people often criticized him for this.Jakep was eager to have a son, and according to the traditional customs, he ordered his wife Qierdi to live a lonely life deep in the jungle, and let her conceive there.This is an ancient child-seeking ceremony, which is called "E'ermu" in Ke language.Qierdi was pregnant as expected, and lived in the mountains waiting for the child to be born.Jakep sent an orphan up the mountain to deliver food and water.One day, on his way home, the orphan found 40 children in the jungle who looked alike.There was another boy, whom the other children called Manas.This omen has also been seen by others.Gakop was very worried that the Kalemaks would know about this matter, and in order to keep it secret, he killed the orphan.

However, Khan Alaokai of Karmak learned from a fortune teller that a hero would be born among the Kirgiz people.Ah Laokai quickly reported this information to the Great Khan King Qin Eshi (Genghis Khan).Qin Eshi was shocked when he heard this, and immediately issued an order that the Kirgiz people should not be allowed to live alone, and that every five households must send a detective to watch over them.And for all pregnant women, a laparotomy was performed.In one day, 5,000 pregnant women of the Ke tribe died unexpectedly.A child who is accidentally born due to a missed check must check the handprint, and if he finds the word "Manas" on the palm of the palm as said by the fortune-teller, he will be executed immediately.

During her pregnancy, Qiyirdi got a strange disease and wanted to eat the eyes of the divine bird, the heart of the tiger, and the tongue of the lion.During childbirth, a skin sac was born, which was cut open, and a fat boy was taken out, which was so heavy that adults could not lift it up.The baby held blood in one hand and oil in the other, and spread out his right palm, and there was indeed the word "Manas".People knew it was extraordinary, and in order to hide it from the detective Callemak, they put a puppy in their skin.Everyone was tight-lipped, no one called the baby "Manas", and another name was "Madman".Manas was born safely under the protection of everyone, and kept his name incognito.

When they grow up to four years old, they are burly; when they grow up to six years old, they start herding; when they grow up to nine years old, they can straddle horses to fight. Manas is generous and often eats delicacies with the herders. He is dissatisfied by his father Jakepu and flees angrily.He left his hometown of Barkol and went to Turpan, where he was farming, and learned to sow and cultivate, open up wasteland and build canals.Later, with the help of his mother, he defected to his uncle Barita. Barrita is a giant and a seer.He was Gakop's own brother, but Kiildi was his prize.He regarded Qierdi as his younger sister and gave it to Jakep as his wife. From then on, he regarded Qierdi as his elder brother and cared for Qierdi.So Manas regarded him as the most reliable uncle.

The old man of Barita taught Manas that only with the help of everyone can he complete his heroic work. He gave his nephew a gun and a golden steel sword, and he also asked a blacksmith to forge excellent spears and swords for Manas. ax.From then on, these four weapons accompanied Manas all his life.Barita asked his son Chuvak to be the warrior of Manas.Chuvak later became one of Manas' right and left arms.Finally, Barita instructed Manas to find the most famous wise old man Bakai.Be sure to invite Bakai to assist him.Sure enough, Manas found the long-lived wise man. Manas lived a wandering life when he was a teenager, and because of this, he had the opportunity to get in touch with the society extensively, especially witnessed the various bullying of the Kirgiz people by the alien Karmaks, and he remembered it in his heart, determined to overthrow the rule of the alien race .With the help of the older generation of heroes such as Bakai and Barita, he gathered 40 warriors (actually many warriors).

He found people to make all kinds of weapons, battle robes and armor. He unified the Arashi people who were scattered into 60 tribes into the prototype of the Kirgiz tribe. He united other oppressed and weak nations, formed an alliance, and strengthened his strength. Manas grew from a teenager to a young man, creating conditions for successive victories in the future.
