Chapter 158: Pelican Town's Egg Festival
Spring 13th is Pelican Town's Egg Festival. This is the first festival of the year in Pelican Town, so it is extraordinarily grand.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the residents of Pelican Town gathered in the town square.
Mayor Lewis stood on a small podium, "Dear residents of Pelican Town, it's time for this day of celebration again, thank Pelican Town for bringing us together to celebrate Pelican Town's 64th Egg Festival." I won't say anything else, I put 20 easter eggs in the town, and within an hour, whoever finds the most will be the winner, and this year's winner can get a mystery prize. As he spoke, Mayor Lewis patted the small wooden box on the table next to him.
"It's definitely not a good thing, it's like this every year, it's boring to death." Abigail said boredly, kicking the pebbles at his feet.
Li Mu looked at the purple-haired little girl standing beside him, and showed a narrow smile, "You must be afraid of losing, so you can make excuses for your failure." ”
"Who said that, I, Abigail, have never lost to anyone in a game, even in a game of easter eggs." As soon as Abigail heard this, he jumped up like a kitten that had been stepped on by its tail, showing his strength with his teeth and claws.
"I don't know who lost last time." Li Mu looked up at the sky and whistled.
"That time was a mistake, it was a mistake, and if we have the ability, we will compare it today." Abigail said puffingly.
"Okay, don't cry if you lose this time." Li Mu showed a cheap smile.
"Hmph, it's not a child anymore, the ghost will cry his nose." Abigail snorted and turned to look away.
"Okay, this egg festival, the treasure hunt has officially begun, everyone go, I left all the easter eggs in that place, as long as you go, you can get this year's mysterious gifts." Mayor Lewis picked up a small mallet and struck it to announce the start of the game.
Abigail heard the sound of the gavel and ran away. She grew up in this town, and she spends all the year round, and she knows everything she knows about the treasures that can be hidden there.
Li Mu looked at Abigail's figure rushing out, smiled, and then chose another direction and walked over. He didn't care if he could win the game, and just thought it was funny and teased his fiancée who had been in the game.
"Remember to be back in an hour, and there will be a group meal at noon, and everyone will have to participate." Mayor Lewis's voice rang out behind him.
Li Mu walked around the town, and then saw a seed store with a business sign, so he pushed the door and walked in. Li Mu looked up and found that Pierre was leaning against the counter reading the newspaper.
"Yo morning, there is still a store open during the festival, you are really dedicated." Li Mu walked into the store in a leisurely manner.
"No way, I've lived in a small town for more than 40 years, and the Egg Festival is for these young people, so I won't go to join in the fun, just go over and have a big meal at noon. By the way, a new batch of strawberry seeds arrived today, would you like to have some? Pierre put down the newspaper and pushed the glasses on his nose.
"Okay, then let's have some, and let me know when new seeds come in the future, and I want them." Li Mu skillfully took out a wad of money.
"No problem, the customer is God." Pierre skillfully handed a bag of seeds to Li Mu.
"Now, I'm going to go out for a walk, I haven't seen much of this town since I came." Li Mu raised his hand and left Pierre's seed shop.
When passing by a cemetery, Li Mu suddenly heard a scream, followed by a crackling fight.
"There's also a battle plot in Stardew Valley Town?" With questions, Li Mu rushed into the cemetery with a brisk step. In between, Abigail was swinging wildly with a wooden sword in his hand, rustling the branches of the surrounding trees.
"Hey, what's wrong." Li Mu rushed over and grabbed the wooden sword in Abigail's hand, controlling Abigail who was performing a frenzy.
"There's a bat, let me go and let me kill it." Abigail shouted in panic.
"Okay, if there are bats here, even if there are, they will be scared away by you." Li Mu let go of his hand and asked Abigail to look around.
Sure enough, there was nothing around.
"Phew, I'm finally gone, why do you encounter bats when you find an easter egg." Abigail sat on the ground dejectedly and pouted aggrievedly.
"Anyway, how did you come to the cemetery? Aren't you afraid? Li Mu also sat on the ground.
"This is my secret base, what am I afraid of." Abigail clasped his hands around his knees and rested his head on his knees.
"Here? Secret base? How could you think of this as a secret base, and who would be intimidated in their own secret base? Li Mu said as he took out a can of canned coffee from his bag and handed it to Abigail. This is Li Mu found that he couldn't finish the coffee he made, so he bought a small filling machine and made the excess coffee into cans.
"Well, it was an accident." Abigail blushed and twisted his head and gulped down the can of coffee. "Who knew there would be a bat coming out of here."
"Then why did you use this as a secret base? It's deserted, isn't it? Li Mu looked at the surrounding trees, isolating the cemetery from the surroundings and turning it into a small natural clearing.
"It's because it's quiet, and it's the only place where I have enough privacy to do what I want to do." Abigail had a look of melancholy in his eyes. "Sometimes, I want to go out and walk, I don't want to stay in this town all the time, although life here is very peaceful, but I always feel that people can't always stay in one place. However, no one understood me, they said that there were many dangers out there, and they didn't want me to go too far. So I practiced my sword here alone, hoping that I could use my swordsmanship to protect myself, and when they recognized my swordsmanship, I could leave the town openly. ”
"Life outside is very hard, very tiring, flowers and beautiful scenery are hidden in inaccessible places, exhaustion and running are the main theme, and besides, there is not only swordsmanship outside." Li Mu patted Abigail's head as he spoke. "Still, if you really like swordsmanship, I can teach you a little bit."
"Huh, really?" Abigail's eyes sparkled.
"Of course, I'm the man who went down to the 120th floor of the mine alone, and I'm from outside." Li Mu said proudly.
"Alright then, when are we going to start." Abigail stood up excitedly.
"Tomorrow, it's not early today," Li Mu looked at the time, "It's almost noon, I have to go to have a big meal first, wait for tomorrow for sword practice, wait for me on the beach tomorrow, I'm going to go fishing, and by the way, I will give you guidance on your swordsmanship." ”
"Well, it's a deal." Abigail held out his little finger.
