Festival 227, Summer Sacrifice Season
The merchant ships of the White Knights and Woolf gradually approached the Northern Peninsula, a world covered with forests and snow, and the permafrost made it difficult for the people to reclaim very little land for farming, so hunting and gathering became their means of survival, and of course robbery became the usual means of survival, all in order to survive.
But because of this, the people of the north were generally fierce, and Woolf was not at all sure whether he would be able to convince his countrymen, but now that he was about to arrive, he was ready for it, first of all, to return to his homeland, Walverdi.
Volverdi was a natural bay, a natural port, and therefore a trading hub for the entire northern peninsula, ruled by the Count of Gülen, who was in his forties, with a beautiful wife and three children.
"You mean to visit Count Gülen and get him to support us?" The White Knight said to Woolf.
"Yes, the entire warrior of Voldi Fu is at the behest of the Count, and he alone owns the ship, and if the Count is willing to lend the warrior and the ship, we will be able to fight for revenge." Woolf explained to the White Knights, but in fact the Earl of Gülen was notoriously stingy, and he would never accede to their requests.
"Can we hire his warriors?" The White Knight continued.
"Ha, I'm still you, do we seem to be rich?" Woolf looked at the White Knight with a wry smile, after the war with the Duke of Bemothy, the White Knight also seemed to have lost his money, and Woolf was originally a mercenary. The two of them can now be said to be pure dicks.
The White Knight smiled without explanation, and at this moment the ship gradually drove into a canyon, and the towering valleys on both sides of the river, and the ships sailed along the sea channel into a harbor, the deep green water was as calm as a mirror, and faintly they heard the loud sound of a horn.
"It's the port that welcomes us, blows the trumpet, and signifies who we are." At this moment, the captain of the merchant ship heard the sound of the trumpet, and he looked up at the misty peaks, and said to the White Knight and Woolf.
"Woo~~." On the masts of the merchant ships, the sailors also picked up the horns and blew them, indicating their identity to the port of Volverdi.
"Look, this is my hometown, Volverdi." Woolf stood on the side of the ship, and he raised his hand to see a natural harbor towering in front of him, dozens of various ships docked on the plank-made docks, and the narrow dragon head warship was quietly docked there.
As night fell, a bonfire was lit in the center of the village of Greenton, and the villagers gathered around the fire, but they did not make any move, waiting quietly for someone.
"The Baron is here." At this time, Mickey shouted loudly, and the others hurriedly looked over, only to see Bruce slowly walking over with Annie and others, willing to lead the way in front with a torch, and when Bruce appeared, everyone cheered and applauded.
"Your Excellency, your Excellency." As Bruce walked through the crowd, everyone tried to reach out and touch him, the young lord who had already gained the loyalty of the villagers of Glynton.
"Most honorable Baron, this is the richest summer festival season in Greenton's history, and thank you for accepting the invitation." Elder Warren was on crutches, and he spoke to Bruce with Eve's support.
"This is my first summer festival season since I ruled Greenton, and of course I'm going to attend." Bruce said with a smile to Elder Warren.
The summer festival is held in the middle of each summer, and it is said to commemorate the day when the main god performs miracles on the pagans in the summer, but some people say that this festival is actually derived from the pagan goddess of the earth, so the church once wanted to ban the summer festival season, but because the effect was not obvious, so it had to be stopped.
"This is a crown made of holly leaves, which is worn on the head of the most honorable person during the summer festival season to wish him a long and healthy life." A serf girl walked up to Bruce with a flower crown in her hand, she raised her hand and placed the flower crown on top of Bruce's head, and Bruce looked at the green flower crown with some tears and laughter, but he really couldn't focus on the enthusiastic eyes around him.
"Healthy summer festival season." When the corolla landed on top of Bruce's head, everyone erupted in cheers, and then the maidens threw out the holly leaves that had been prepared in the basket, and suddenly it seemed to rain green leaves all around.
"Let's start dancing and celebrate!" Mickey cheered loudly, and immediately people banged on various utensils, and under the sound of the sound, the women wore garlands on each other, and they held hands around the bonfire to form a circle, dancing in the sound of beating, and the men also formed a large circle on the periphery, the two circles began to rotate around the campfire, the women and men walked three steps and stopped, and then staggered each other to find a dance partner to hold hands and spin in a circle.
"Hahaha, we still have wine." Greenton's soldiers brought over several casks of ale, and when they opened the lids, the smell of wine wafted out, while the maids of the lord's house took up the food, which they piled up around the center of the village, and people could reach out and pick up the food while dancing.
"Oh, this is the busiest summer festival season I've ever had in my life." Elder Warren sat on the stone beside him, smiling and revealing his fangs, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to be squeezed together.
"Cheers." Bruce also felt very happy, although the banquet of the nobles was as rich as the wine and food, but it was full of intrigue, but with his own people, he felt extremely relaxed and cheerful, so he reached out and touched the glass with Ken.
"Ah, wine, wine, I smell it from afar." The trough-nosed mad monk screamed and rushed out of that corner, and at once he rushed to the side of the ale barrel, and stretched out his hand to scoop the wine directly from it, and the Glynton soldiers tried to pull him away, but to no avail.
"Hahahaha." When the Grington soldiers ripped off the Mad Monk's pants, revealing his white buttocks, everyone around them couldn't help but laugh, and Anne quickly covered her eyes shyly.
"This idiot, let me cut off a piece of his fat." Looking at the embarrassed mad monk, Eve's face flushed with anger, and she couldn't help but step forward to teach him a lesson, but she was stopped by Elder Warren.
"Forget it, don't forget what day it is, just let him mess around!" Elder Warren said to Eve, and then Eve remembered that it was the suffering of the mad monk on the day of the summer festival, and he would usually hide from anyone on this day, but today he suddenly appeared in the crowd, as if he was drinking and fooling around, which was really strange.
