Chapter 32 Section 7: Alimanbet forms an alliance with two heroes

Alimanbet, the Khitan prince, whose original name was Zuo Shaoya, was a native of Ketai Beijing, whose capital was Beijing.He is the eighth generation descendant of Zirabakhan.When he was a prince, the biggest khan in Ketai was Aisan Khan, and his father was just one of the general khans.He had a happy childhood with resplendent palaces and delightful gardens. At the age of 18, Zuo Shaoya returned home after three years of studying art with a teacher. When he visited his father and king, he found that 12 generals were missing.For this reason, he asked to see the Great Khan Aisan.Aisan said that the 12 generals were given to Kongwuer.When Kongwuer saw him come back, he provoked and fought.Zuo Shaoya went up to the mountain to look around, and found that his own land was full of Kalemak's sheds, cattle and sheep.He questioned Aisan Khan, but Aisan Khan said: "There are 40 generals' residences, which is enough for you to manage alone." Aisan believed that this was done for the safety of the border and asked Kongwuer to help him guard the Kangkay area. .Ai San lures the wolf into the house, which makes Zuo Shaoya very sad and indignant.He also couldn't get the understanding of his father, but he didn't want to live a life controlled by a foreign race, so he had to give up inheriting the Khan throne and leave.

For the first time, he formed an alliance with Quoke, the leader of Kazakhstan. Quoke changed his name to "Arimanbet" in his elder brother's qualifications.After a while, because I missed my parents, I went back to Beijing to visit, but I still didn't get forgiveness from my father, but I got support from my loving mother.The mother and son broke through the obstruction of their father's force and left Begin.On the way, he was intercepted by Kongwuer, fell into the enemy's seven-layer net by mistake, and was thrown into a deep cellar. After three days of struggle, with the help of his horse, he got out of the ground.At this time, the loving mother passed away.

Alimanbet assisted Quoc to achieve remarkable results. The original 600 horses jumped to 6,000 horses.He was ambitious and wanted to make the Kazakhs stronger so that they could surpass Manas' strength.He was fair and honest, severely punished selfishness and fraud, which made some undecent officials very jealous of him, and spread rumors, slandering that he had an affair with Quokeque's concubine. Quoke is kind, but also stupid, as long as he gets drunk, he will become dizzy.Not only did he believe in slander, but he also deeply hurt his brother's heart.When the furious Alimanbet bid farewell, he almost crushed Quocque's hand, and the lynx hat he was wearing was shaken and rolled into the fire pit.He could have chopped Quoc into pieces with one swing of his sword, but he forgave him and resumed his wandering career.

He wandered aimlessly among the mountains and forests, using the slopes as his bed and the sky as his tent, and he had no one to talk to when he was depressed.He was full of thoughts and conflicts.He couldn't bear Quoke's insult, and hoped that his ally, whom he had known for many years, would wake up and repent and take him back.It's a pity that Quoke was indeed drunk for many days, and just a little sober, he was given strong alcohol by the ministers.Ahriman is especially looking forward to the one-day journey and three-day journey. The betrayal of his friends makes him deeply feel the vicissitudes of the world and the sea of ​​suffering. Only the yellow-flowered horse is listening to the sigh of its master:

I cast aside the throne of gold, Throwing away the Khan's crown, Connect the head with the disaster, It's all about realizing my dreams. But now I am in the wilderness, and if I die, The wicked will strip me of my precious garments, Big birds will peck out my crystal eyes, Crows will peck at my spine. He roamed aimlessly in the mountains and fields for 12 years before he found his ideal destination in his thirties. From his smartest young warrior, Ajibai, Manas learned that a Ketayi prince with a prominent background and high ability was walking through the jungle to the Kirgiz tribe.He was so thirsty for talents that he went to the hillside every day to look at the passers-by.One day, there really was a foreigner wearing a black overcoat. He was dressed noblely and had a mighty appearance, which made people dare not look up.Manas ordered people to set up a large tent, and sent five trusted warriors to meet him, and said: "If he doesn't get off his horse to pay his respects, I will kill you both!"

The proud Alimanbet scared the five warriors. It was all thanks to Ajibai who said all kinds of beautiful words, and finally made the foreign prince understand that this was the arrangement of fate, and he had to bow down to Manas first.Manas was elated, and immediately stood up, respectfully invited the prince to sit in the middle, and presented him with his own mount, battle robe and weapon, which was the most solemn courtesy to the visitor.Manas and all the heroes enthusiastically retained the prince and built a great cause together.So the two heroes form an alliance. After forming an alliance, the two went to meet Manas' parents together.Manas's father Gakup and Ahriman Beetru reunited after a long absence. They embraced tightly, opened the prince's skirt, and kept kissing his warm body.This is the most intimate etiquette for the elders to meet the younger generation for the first time.Manas's mother, Qiyirdi, has a pair of miraculous breasts. When she first saw Manas' god horse Akkula, her breasts suddenly swelled and hurt, and the milk spurted out like a spring, and she mixed it with her milk. Wheat feeds the horse, so Akkula is both Manas' mount and his milk brother.This time, the old mother's breast spurted out white milk again, and she let the two brothers suck it, and they also became siblings.

Ahrimanbet put on new Kirgiz clothes.For the sacred cause of Manas, he returned all the things that Manas had donated, and expressed his determination to die after his death with tears pouring down. Mrs. Kanikai's younger sister is called Arukai. She is more beautiful and intelligent than her elder sister sometimes.She is the adopted daughter of Kara Khan in a war. She is proficient in six or seven languages.In order to facilitate the marriage of her younger sister and Alimanbet, Kanikai mobilized her father-in-law Gakup to propose marriage in person. In order to prepare the dowry, Gakup invited all the famous khans and rich men in the tribe, and asked to prepare the dowry within nine days.When the people of Bukhara saw such a dowry-giving team, they were very frightened at first.The endless animals seemed to trample the earth over.People were sweating profusely in order to count the number of livestock.There are also golden trees, silver trees, a milk lake, and a butter lake.Whatever was lacking in Kanikai's wedding, it will be made up this time.

The yurt for the bride and groom is as big as a medium-sized castle, with extremely luxurious decorations, either cast in copper or inlaid with silver.This is an unprecedented grand wedding, showing the Kirgiz people's special affection for Ahriman. The epic uses a lot of touching language in many places to describe the affection between the two brothers.After Alimanbet died, people sang a foreign hero with unstoppable grief.This special cultural psychology not only reveals that the Kirgiz people yearn for friendship and unity among nationalities in the suffering of ethnic disputes, but they also use their talent to write poems to repay the deep friendship of a foreign brother.It just proves that this is not the feeling between individuals, but reflects the common historical destiny of weak and small nations.The grand wedding of Arukai and Alimanbet should not be interpreted as extravagance and boasting of wealth, but to strengthen this symbolic alliance.
