Section 34 Dream Day (3)
(4.5 First Update)
The deafening circus performance is more like a slaughterhouse to deter beasts, and if you are not careful, you may lose a subsistence job forever. The listless tiger, detached from the barrier of the forest, humiliated by the crotch of a small human, walks with all his might, but is only a supporting role played by the clown.
Xiao Yi admired this different kind of art with relish on the side, covering his eyes with his hands but cracking a slight gap when he was thrilling, clapping his hands to render a warm atmosphere when escaping from danger, and even suddenly screaming in the noisy crowd, turning his head embarrassedly to see if there would be a strange look around, and after making sure that it was safe, he fell into a carnival feast again.
"That's the end of today's performance, welcome to all of us, let's meet again at the same time next year."
Before the curtain call of the circus master was over, only cheers and applause could be heard, like a game of frenzied escape, and the crowd of exiting the stage pounded through the narrow door, almost climbing through the tiny cracks between the door frames. Xiao Yi took my hand, but I was firmly restrained in place.
Xiao Yi pointed to the tower on the right side of the venue, hinting at the upcoming game competition.
"It's okay, as the guardian knight of the beautiful princess, I will send my beloved princess wherever she wants to go on time."
In the dark night, I didn't need the guidance of passers-by to easily discern all directions, and Xiao Yi stuck to my back and moved on the steps leading to the center of the stage. The birds of prey, which have escaped attention, are unscrupulously devouring the delicious food obtained by virtue of their hard acting skills, and when they see our presence, they suddenly become vigilant and take a bite of the fat meat that has not been bitten into their mouths.
"Your Excellency, can I pet this cute little pet?"
A smoke ring was soothed, and it was an old man who seemed to be very mean, but unexpectedly and kindly agreed to my unreasonable request.
"Brave children, they can be in a state of sleepiness, fresh and tender flesh, but what about the dessert they yearn for!"
The old man stood up, knocked out the burned tobacco on the floor, and then stuck the cigarette gun in his waist, stroking the king of beasts.
"It doesn't matter, if it's really a hungry livestock, I'm afraid the head of the regiment won't dare to make such an intimate move! After all, even the bones are willing to chew and swallow the beast, and they don't mind the inconspicuous difference between the flesh. ”
Striding behind the tiger, there were a few more artificially created spots on the yellow and white stripes, which were traces of being scalded by soot, and he was really a perverted breeder. Picking up Xiao Yi's hand, he didn't resist too violently, and touched the slender tail.
The sudden writhing tail made the huge body tremble, twisted its head to look at me with disdain, and sat back obediently back in place. The regimental commander, who was stunned on one side, tried his best to hide the surprise that had been exposed, but he comforted the illusion that he was accustomed to.
Xiao Yi began to stroke his furry body under the magnification of his slight achievements, and the tiger who stopped eating with his eyes closed was more like enjoying this kind of kind massage that he had never felt before, drooping his head and turning into a real giant pet.
"Looks like it likes this kind girl and is already intoxicated with the dreamy holiday atmosphere!"
The head of the group who doesn't know what is going on is making up the truth indiscriminately, and the only person who can really understand the communication between the electric light and flint should be the parties involved. Those seemingly fierce eyes are full of humiliating vicissitudes, as long as they are fed back to a more stern gaze, and then adjust the cold color of the chill in the pupils, the animals can experience true care. Of course, the animal trainer in front of him didn't understand the true meaning, and he could only be anesthetized with poisons such as tobacco when he was pried open.
"Probably, at least not annoying. Is this your reward for some extra loving dinner for these kind animals? ”
Those who are obsessed with money have a knack for memorization, and the regimental commander, who knows the numbers, strode to the backstage with his head held high, beckoning the logistics supply office to mercifully replenish it.
After a while, Xiao Yi was surrounded by all kinds of animals, many of which were rare and exotic beasts that I couldn't name, probably because of their unique value, and they were hunted into the greedy French Open Bar. As for the love I born, it was just a prop to accompany the princess to spend her boring time, and it was only a gorgeous shell but not distracted.
Ignoring the lucrative extra meal, they all rushed to seek Xiao Yi's favor, and such a sudden blow could only make the sluggish regiment commander pretend to be familiar and didn't care, showing off the control that was about to collapse.
A duckling flew down on my shoulder, chirping something I couldn't understand at all, and then sticking out its short tongue, past its thin flat beak, and licking it in my face, bringing the coolness of the shallow sea to the hot summer day, which felt pretty good.
I brought a small bench and sat next to the old man of the regiment, and the animal attached to me also escaped from the scene where it was not allowed to listen to secrets.
"This young master, thank you very much for your donation, I don't know which castle you are the son of? He doesn't look like a rich kid from Turan. ”
Seeing that I was about to cover my mouth, the regiment commander hurriedly extinguished the cigarette gun in his hand and threw it far away into a dark corner. Of course, he doesn't mind that kind of loss, it can only be counted as a drop in the bucket of the pension.
"Thank you for your cooperation. It is true that I am not a nobleman of my own country, and if I want to have a reasonable status, it is just a foreign merchant passing through this place, and I happened to encounter such a sacred festival, so I decided to stay for an extra day. Has the head of the regiment been operating in this area for a long time? ”
"Yes, seven or eight years ago, when the Smick family was in power, I organized this circus, and when it was very small, I didn't expect it to be so strong now. Of course, I am also a itinerant merchant and do not have a fixed nationality, and if I need to prove it, it should be a special pass issued to me by the House of Coron. ”
Contrary to the nostalgic gaze of the regiment commander reminiscing about the past, I should have a sharp eye that flashed out of the corner of my eye at that time, but it was not easy to capture.
"So, the head of the regiment wouldn't mind discussing some strange things about this country with me?"
"Oh? I don't know what ancient legends this young master wants to know, if I have heard of them, I must tell them in detail. ”
The head of the regiment rubbed the ashes that fell on his hands, and with the style of the dark shadow, he blew the evidence of history into the air, and stared at the falling track.
"Relic of the Cologne Dynasty, Geometric Coins!"
The head of the regiment suddenly awoke from his sleep, and the incredulity was written all over his pale face under the night sky, and it also shone in his eyes, which were not lying at this time.
"Sure enough, I underestimated the appearance of coincidence, and I always had to suffer a big loss. However, judging from the young master's actions, the merchant may just be a false title to cover up some truths! However, I don't hate the mystery, because the mystery always brings unexpected and rich rewards to the onlooker. The official record of the geometric coin, Childe should already know it. ”
"If you have only heard a little, the rumors in the market do not have the credibility to provide evidence, and the trial without evidence will be repugnated as shameless slander."
"Is there valid evidence? I'm afraid this is the truth of squandering money. The regimental commander picked up a small stone on the stage, "This is the truth!" ”
"Pebbles?"
"Well, although private discussions will be punished with death, there is no desirable ending for disobeying the son. The lost geometric coins of the Coron dynasty did land on the territory of this country, and King Lang's lonely height on a whim ruined the plan to expand the army and subverted the stable rule. I once heard from a drunken trainer that the Geometric Coins had been on display in their barracks and then disappeared, and that the man behind that unit was none other than General Jane Olith, the now centralized power. Of course, maybe he is still sacrificing the magical coin for the power he has obtained, but he doesn't dare to exaggerate the disaster star that has destroyed the country. That's all the plausible insights I can speculate. ”
"The commander means that the geometric coins should be kept in the hands of the new clan, and it is only for fear that the Koren dynasty will ask the master to make up a lie that has disappeared mysteriously."
The regiment commander clenched the stone in his hand and slammed it into the empty hall, looking at it from afar, but it was still silent.
"Does Childe know why there is no echo?" With his staggering palm outstretched, his little finger embedded in the crack in the stone, "Because it doesn't want to be heard, it creates the illusion that it can deceive itself." ”
"It's a really interesting detective mystery game, but when the sun comes out, the clouds will always disperse and the truth will come out."
He stood up, swinging his legs, slightly numb. Xiao Yi is still busy in the crowd, but the time to say goodbye is also a precious collection.
