Chapter Fifty-Three: Dineth Recreation Troupe
Outside the city of Lan'er, on the edge of the Saling forest.
The camp of the Dinas Recreation Group is set up here, and tents of all sizes are set up not far from the forest, and dozens of people are busy here. Not far from the tents are a variety of large and small iron cages, in which the animals domesticated by the troupe for performances are kept, most of these iron cages are covered with black cloths, and occasionally the sound of animal chirping comes from the cages.
At this time, it is already dusk, the people of the amusement troupe are busy preparing dinner around the campfire, the men are moving the collected ingredients to the stove, the women are busy cooking meals, more than a dozen large square tables are placed around the bonfire in the center of the open space, many men are already sitting around the table, some chatting, some playing cards, and some are holding instruments and playing light music...... Not far from the square table, the top dancer of the Dines Amusement Troupe, Lan Ya, was instructing several fifteen or sixteen-year-old dancers in their dance moves.
The evening sun shone on this peaceful land, and the atmosphere of the people was happy, the men watched the busy figures of the women with relish, the women accused the men of being overly spending, and laughter came from the camp. Suddenly, someone shouted, "The regimental commander is back!", and everyone turned their eyes to the majestic figure who had walked into the camp.
This is a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a dark brown leather vest over his red and white striped shirt, a belt around his waist, black straight-leg pants on the lower half of his body, and dark gray leather boots on his feet. He was very tall, more than half a head taller than his entourage, and he was walking into the camp with a brown cowboy hat on his head, he lowered the brim of his hat, his head was slightly lowered, and in the dim sunlight, the upper half of his face was hidden in the shadows, and people could only see his dense mustache and half a cigarette in his mouth, and the whole person looked like an iron-clad old cowboy.
This is the leader of the Dinas Recreation Troupe, the leader of a group of outstanding performers - Lelerich Shaunason. He stood still by the campfire, reached for his cowboy hat, and underneath his fluffy and somewhat messy back combed hair, he took a deep puff of his cigarette, exhaled a cloud of mist, and then scanned the room with his deep gaze.
"Commander......"
"Captain Lesendage, the ...... of the show in the city"
"Commander, we've been camping here for more than ten days. ”
"Will Lan'er let us in?"
......
Everyone asked him gossipingly, Lesenducci just stood quietly and smoked the remaining half of the cigarette on his mouth, and when the cigarette was finished, he threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it, put the cowboy hat in his hand back on his head, he raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then in the expectant gaze of everyone, he said to everyone in a calm and magnetic voice: " Ladies and gentlemen, please greet your great Captain Lesendage with the warmest cheers, and just three hours ago, with my unrelenting rhetoric, I finally said that the Tonglaner Street Management will open the gates for our Dinas Entertainment Troupe! We can set up our Ensemble in the central square of the most prosperous Fulin business district in Laner!"
A cheer rang out one after another, some hugging each other happily, others surrounding Lesendage and tossing him high, all shouting with joy.
"What a worthy leader of our regiment!"
"Great, we're making money again!"
"Lan'er City, that's a gathering of rich people!"
"Let's have a good time in the city~ Hahaha......"
......
"Okay, okay, let me down......" Lesendage shouted, and was caught by the crowd and put back on the ground, "Where's the hat?
"Here!" said someone picked up the cowboy hat that had just fallen from the top of Lesendage's head and handed it to him, and Lesendage patted the dust on it, put it on, and walked to the long table and sat down in the crowd.
He waved his hand and said to the people around him: "Let's all disperse, go and go, are the meals ready? Hungry to death! Pour me a glass of water, after talking all afternoon, my throat is going to smoke~"
Hearing Lesendage's words, everyone dispersed and went to work, Lanya picked up the kettle and poured a bowl of tea for Lesendage, then sat down beside him and said, "Dad, did you promise me that if the amusement troupe can enter the city, you will take me to buy new clothes." ”
After opening his mouth and drinking the bowl of tea, Lesendage said to Lan Ya with a smile: "Dad promised you something, when did you break your promise?
"Daddy's the best!" Lanya happily wrapped her arms around Lesendage's neck and kissed him on the cheek.
"Ouch, okay, okay...... It's not a shame for so many people to look at you~" Lesendage patted Lan Ya's arm and said, "Let's talk about it, buy you clothes, and when it's time to perform on stage, you have to dance hard and show your most beautiful dance to the audience." This time I entered the city, it was the Flower Society Festival, and there will be many dignitaries and dignitaries who came to our troupe to watch the performance, you have to perform well and start the reputation of our Dinas Amusement Troupe!"
"Don't worry, I promise I won't disgrace you!" Lan Ya said confidently
"Well, that's my good daughter...... Hey, by the way, your uncles who went into the Saling Jungle to catch demonic beasts have all come back safely, right?" asked Xiang Lanya.
Lanya let go of her arm after hearing Lesendage's words, and said to him with a worried look on her face: "The other three teams have all returned to the group safely, Uncle Kakun and they also brought back a silverhorn deer cub, but Uncle Gadu and their team have ...... so far."
"Haven't come back yet?" Lesendage looked suspicious, "When I left the regiment and entered the city, they had been in the forest for three days, and now eight days have passed......
"Dad, do you think Uncle Gadu and Uncle Gransh are in any danger......" Lanya said worriedly.
"Alas~ don't talk nonsense!" Lesende reprimanded Lan Ya, "Your Uncle Gadu has rich experience in surviving in the jungle, he has been to the deep mountains and old forests several times before and returned to the group safely, and he has brought back a lot of Warcraft with performance value to the group, we must believe Gadu." ”
Lan Ya nodded and didn't make a sound, Lesende frowned and knocked on the table and said, "In this way, tomorrow I will lead everyone to move the camp into the city first, and I can't break the contract after negotiating with others, and before leaving, I will send a team of people into the forest to find you Uncle Gadu......"
"Alas, Gadu and they're back!"
While they were discussing, everyone turned their attention to Gadu and Gransh, who had walked into the camp, and Zero who was following them.
"Ouch, I'm looking forward to bringing you back~"
"I thought something had happened to you, but I worried the brothers......
"If you don't come back, we're going to form a group to look for you in the forest!"
"What 'good goods' did you bring back?
......
When Lesendage and Lanya heard the voices of the crowd, a big stone in their hearts finally fell, and they got up and walked towards them.
"Oh my brother~ You're finally back, I thought something happened to you, it seems that I thought too much, Holy Lord bless!" Lesendage smiled and hugged Gadu.
Gadu took the cigarette handed over by Lesendage, lit it, took a deep breath and said to him: "This road is indeed thrilling, the fat man and I were almost swallowed alive by the golden-crowned python!"
"Yes, yes, that big python is almost 30 meters long, and when it opens its mouth, it bites and smells fishy, and it disgusts me!" said Gransh, fanning his hand in front of his nose, revealing a look of disgust.
"Golden Crown Python, my God, that's a sixth-order demonic beast! You're too risky, I just hope you can go into the forest to find some demonic beast cubs that can be domesticated, if you can't find it, forget it, safety first, if something happens to you, I will have a bad conscience." Lesenducci said with a frown and a serious look on his face.
"Wealth and danger are in danger, and when the golden-crowned python chased us, it rushed into the territory of the Polly bird, and then ...... Hahaha...... Fatty, you say it~" Gadu laughed halfway through his words, and he stabbed Gransh beside him with his elbow and said.
"Haha...... You really don't know how lucky we are, those Polly birds fought with the golden-crowned python!We got this in the Polly nest~" Gransh smiled and opened his storage ring, which contained two rice bowl-sized eggs with red and blue markings.
"Oh, that's ......," Lesendage said, taking off his cowboy hat and looking at the two beautiful eggs in surprise, "This is the Polly egg!"
"Hahaha...... What do you say this time, Commander?" said Grants, looking at Lessendeci, smirking.
"Okay!hahahaha...... When we're in town, I'll treat you to a few drinks!" Lesenducci laughed as he patted Gadu and Gransh on the shoulders.
Zero had been standing behind Gadu and Grantsh, not disturbing the chatter, and he raised an eyebrow when he saw the Polly eggs in Grantsh's storage ring.
Polly birds are a kind of bird monster with bright and beautiful coats, they are a kind of social monsters, generally of the third order, a little has the potential to grow to the fourth order, they have a docile temperament, they generally do not provoke them, they will not take the initiative to attack others, which makes them the favored object of hunters. Because of its beautiful plumage and docile temperament, many people like to keep Polly birds as ornamental pets, and of course, some people will raise them for performances. The Polly Bird has a very strong desire to protect its territory, and it is very difficult to steal the Polly eggs under normal circumstances, which is why it is expensive among ornamental pets.
These two people were really lucky, when they were chased and killed by the golden-crowned python, they led it to the territory of the Polly bird, and when the monsters were fighting each other, they fished in troubled waters and stole the Polly bird's eggs.
Gransh smiled and said to Lesendage: "Alas, the head of the group, our brothers are in danger this time, you can't ask Lanya's niece to dance alone for our brothers~"
"Well...... Lesendage glanced at Lan Ya beside him and smiled bitterly, "I can't be the master of this, you can ask her yourself......"
Gransh looked at Lan Ya with a smile and asked, "Good niece, can you give your uncles a while?"
"I don't. Lan Ya pinched her waist with both hands and rejected Grant's request.
Gransh's smile froze on his face, and he said with a bitter face: "You refused too much this time......
"Dad asked you to go, not me~ Fat uncle, look at your appearance, every day I look forward to the young girls singing and dancing for you, no wonder you can't catch up with Aunt Xinna......" Lan Ya said with a white look at Gransh with her hands around her chest.
"Ahahahaha......" Gadu laughed and patted Gransh on the shoulder, "Fatty, what am I talking about......?"
Gransh stood there with an embarrassed face and said, "Big niece, you are too ruthless in what you said......
At this time, Lan Ya noticed Zero who had been standing quietly behind Gransh, who had been standing quietly behind Gransh, and she looked at Zero with bright eyes and asked, "Yo~ Who is this little handsome guy? Isn't it from our group......?
"Alas, don't touch him~" Gransh saw Lan Ya with a smile on his face, and took a step in front of Zero with his wide belly and said to her, "If you don't dance for our brothers, you don't want to touch this handsome little guy." ”
