jangle of death

# Episode-03

In the afternoon, everyone came to the wedding house and saw a stage made of bamboo silka in front of the house. The stage was made of colorful hill flowers. Many people gathered around the house on the occasion of the wedding. The little boys and girls of the village wore small clothes. Garo women are in a hurry. Some of them are wearing necklaces, earrings, and mountain flowers around their necks. Many of them are wearing thick silver ornaments on their legs. The men are wearing Genji and dhoti. Looks like.

The official marriage of the Garos is called Dondaka or Dobuk Niya. All the members of the original Garo group get married in the Dondaka style. For this ritual, Dudorasang or big rooster and chicken are required. Then everyone eats. The employee priest to know whether the future of the newlyweds is good or bad.

The rooster examines the chickens elsewhere. If the size and volume of the fish-shaped part of the intestines is equal, they assume that the future of the newly-weds is auspicious. Then the priest completes the marriage by striking the bride and groom three times with closed fists.

Kavya was videotaping their rituals with her camera the whole time of the wedding. If you make a short film with them, her name will be called. It is almost evening when the wedding is over. After the evening, everyone in the village comes together under a big tree. This place is a little far from the village. There were only trees and shrubs all around, but for the darkness which is now obscure to them. They all set fire to a place under the tree and sat down with the bride and groom some distance away. The girls started playing the drums made of bamboo. The girls began to dance to the beat of the drums. The light of the fire seemed to cast a different glow on their faces. These are new to the earthlings. They were surprised to see everything. When they were watching these very carefully, an old man He came to them with his staff and said,

- "Where are you going?"

- "In the blind forest on the other side of the river Teufa." Mrinmoy replied.

The old man was startled when he heard Mrinmoy's words. There was a hint of fear in his eyes.

Pangsut said,

- "What are you going to do in that horrible jungle of death?"

- "Grandpa, let's go trekking."

- "Don't go to that jungle. That jungle is not a death trap. No one can escape from that jungle."

As soon as the old man had finished speaking, a blood-stained wolf was heard roaring from the forest. But as far as they knew, there was no wolf to be here. The sound was found, but no one saw it until today. No other sound was found for the rest of the night, but the old man told them that there were black spots on a part of the forest or there were ghosts. They did not believe them, but Saurabh. Being a little scared is quite scary.

The next morning they said goodbye to Moral. At that time the old man of yesterday came to them with a stick and said,

- "Are you going to that jungle despite so many bans?"

- "Grandpa, don't worry. Nothing will happen to us."

- "You don't know how terrible that incorporeal is. He won't leave anyone."

Saying this, the old man took out seven threads from the bag he had brought with him. The thread said to them,

- "This is the mantra thread kept in the temple of our Tatara god Rabuka. Keep this thread with you. By the grace of God, no evil force can touch you."

The old man forcibly put a thread on their hands. Before they left, the village foreman said,

--You may know all this but I am reminding you again. Look, walking in the forest will not be so easy for you because you do not have the habit of walking. So it will take you a lot of time. But in my opinion, it is better for you not to stay in that forest. The important thing is to keep a water bottle with all of you at all times. Collect water from wherever you find water. Do not light a fire in the forest. Find a good place to spend the night before evening. I pray to God that you all come back well.

- "Thank you. We will try to keep your word. Pray for us."

- "Of course. My son Young will leave you alone."

- "All right."

After talking to Moral, they all set off for the blind forest. As soon as they left the village, they saw the river Teufa. The water of the river has calmed down now. .

Yang came to the river and said,

- "We have to go by boat. But not everyone can go together."

Listening to Young's words, Kavya said,

- "Then I, Neel, Sourav, and Rohan go."

- "Okay then you go with them before which I will come later with Meher and Jannat."

According to the words, Kavya, Neel, Saurabh, and Rohan got on the boat. Young went to the other side again to bring the rest.

- "Great place to make a short film."

- "The place is really awesome."

Young said,

- "I really enjoyed spending time with you. I hope you all come back in good health."

- "Of course Young."

Young said a few more words and said goodbye to them. The boat moved forward towards the shore with a sound of shouting. Everyone stared at it with one glance. Everyone sighed as soon as the boat went out of sight. He couldn't handle the greed. That's why he left everything here. He didn't say these words to anyone. Everyone who is afraid of nature, especially Saurabh, may not have wanted to come. He didn't. But now there is no time to think about it and we have to look at the map quickly and leave.
