After the end of the Great Patriotic War, in order to prevent the Dark Demon from repeating its old tricks, the Nas Empire built the largest war fortification in the empire so far, the Dawn Wall, in the hilly area in the eastern part of the Baimu Mountains, the breakthrough of the invasion of the Dark Beasts.

The Wall of Dawn was built in the first year of Nass and completed in the 22nd year of the Nass era, and with the strength of the human community, the Baimu Mountains were forcibly extended to the easternmost cliffs of the Pumir Plateau.

As the first battlefield of the Great Patriotic War, the Pmir Plateau was devastated and the people were miserable, and as many as 2 million people died of war, starvation, and disease during the war alone. Even after the war ended, life in the Pumir Plateau was still in dire straits. The evil and filthy invaders left a large number of low-level underworld beasts in the Nas continent, in a vain attempt to rely on the powerful survival and reproduction ability of the low-level underworld beasts to create some obstacles to the post-war development of the Nas continent. The Pumir Plateau is the place where the invaders of the Dark Continent landed and evacuated, and the low-level Underworld Beasts left behind were more complex than the other low-level Underworld Beasts in the Nas Continent in terms of number and variety.

In the first 3 years of construction, the Nas Empire promulgated a series of labor policies in order to recruit laborers, which directly contributed to the largest population migration in the history of the Nas Continent, with a migration population of nearly 2 million people, which indirectly solved the dilemma of the people on the plateau.

The migration of the population led to the rebirth of the town, and with the completion of the Wall of Dawn, a new main city on the south side of the city of Dawn, the City of Dawn, was built. The sub-cities and villages below the City of Dawn are located in the City of Dawn and are radially distributed in a fan shape to the south with their backs against the Wall of Dawn.

The above is the precondition of "please name festival", and the following is the real origin of "name invitation festival".

The first lord of the city of Dawn was Hicks, and the first thing he did when he took office for the convenience of management was to abolish the names of the established villages and towns, and to redivide the fan-shaped city according to the distribution of towns. The area on the west side of the fan-shaped city near the Baimu Mountains is named after the snow fall, and there are a total of 57 villages under the snowfall city, the area near the sea area on the east side of the fan-shaped city is named after Haiming, and there are 70 villages under the city of Haiming, and the middle area of the fan-shaped city is named after Yunjing, and there are 86 villages under the city. Villages in the three sub-cities are numbered after the distance between the tallest building in the village and the City of Dawn, in descending order.

Before the war, most of the people of the plateau existed in the form of ethnic groups and villages, and the total number of people was small but complicated, and before the war, there were nearly 3,000 large and small ethnic groups and villages, and the construction of the Dawn City brought together almost all the surviving people on the plateau, and it was extremely difficult to manage. It has to be said that Hicks's initiative has given managers the greatest convenience. But the opinion of the highlanders is very great, you can't be called before, you can't be so irresponsible, named by numbers, lazy and uncreative, in the days of peace after the war, Hicks's move provoked public outrage, triggering one of the most united and prestigious popular protests in the history of the City of Dawn - the March for Names.

Hicks seems to have been prepared for the anger of the villagers, and quickly gave another choice, naming animals according to them, such as tigers, swift wolves, cheetahs, flying eagles, etc., adopting a lottery policy, but the names of the animals were chosen by the administrators of Dawning City. This policy sounds very good, very tempting, draw a tiger, Fengpeng are good names, the key can also make fun of the village that drew a dog and a cat, it is really a rare joy in ordinary days, the entertainment spirit of the people of the plateau is stimulated, enthusiasm is high, and strong support is expressed. For this "high-stake" event, the people of the plateau also took the opportunity to hold a three-day and three-night celebration.

After the celebration, when the village chiefs opened the selected envelopes with excitement, they all burst into a rage, and it is said that Hicks's ancestors were greeted infinitely that day until the next day. The notes in the envelope were full of cats and dogs, and the village chiefs gathered together to count them, and there were no less than 80 dogs in the dog-word village, all kinds of black dogs, white dogs, black and white dogs, strong dogs, haha dogs, and hee hee dogs...... The only animal that looks more fierce is the snake, but it was only given the name "snake snake snake" for funny purposes, if any village uses such a name, it will be greeted by people from other villages in the future

"Snake Snake Village", the villagers directly unified into stammering.

Naturally, the simple people of the plateau could not accept such a result, even if they took the opportunity to hold a grand celebration.

At this time, Hicks showed his hole cards and directly decided to still name them according to the numbers, and then the second Sunday of July every year was designated as a special festival in the City of Dawn - the Feast of Names. On this day, the village chiefs draw lots, and the exact same animal name is drawn for five years, and the tax is reduced by 50% for the next five years, and the same animal name can be drawn for three years, and the tax is reduced by 20% for the next three years, and the tax reduction and exemption are not stacked. At the same time, before each draw, the City of Dawn holds a three-day and three-night celebration.

The people of the plateau know how to advance and retreat, at least when it is good, they know how to accept it when it is good, and the three-day organized celebration is not casual, not to mention the hidden benefits of tax reductions and exemptions. Today, the festival has become the second year of the year in the Pumir Plateau, and the three-day celebration is lively every day.

- "Tales of the Phumir Plateau"

Snow sets on October 2, 117 year of the Nas era

Back at Yan Tianhan's house, the three of them did not find Drake in the side hall or bedroom.

"Teacher Drake's cabin has a huge wooden barrel specially used for bathing, brother, don't you have a bathroom in that underground secret room? I guess Teacher Drake must be in that bathroom. Harold had a reasonable guess that Drake must have been in the bath.

Yan Tianhan felt that Harold's reasoning was nonsense at all, and asked rhetorically: "There are many places in my room where you can take a bath, and if you really want to take a bath, you can also take a bath in the bedroom, why does Teacher Drake have to go to the bathroom in the underground secret room? I think Teacher Drake is still dealing with the matter of the 'Ten Thousand Souls'." ”

"Because it's quiet there, there's no one there, if you're not convinced, let's bet something, and we'll go over to verify." Harold thumped his chest confidently.

"Okay! Bet 10,000 Na Dollars. "Yan Tianhan doesn't believe in evil.

"Deal!" Harold rubbed his hands in anticipation, "verify it." ”

"Let's go!"

When the three of them entered the basement chamber and pushed open the bathroom door, Drake, as Harold expected, was lying on his back in the bath, his face covered with a towel.

Harold stabbed Yan Tianhan and said proudly: "Accurately! It's still a little longer for us to get along with Teacher Drake, and the teacher still has a lot of small habits, I'll tell you later." Now I am willing to gamble and lose, and hand over 10,000 yuan. ”

Drake, who was enjoying himself with his eyes closed, heard the hurried footsteps of the three of them, and didn't know that the three of them were in such a hurry to verify that they were taking a bath, and thought that the three of them couldn't hold back the joy of passing the new test, so he took the towel off his face, sat up from the bath, and reprimanded: "Passing a small new test won't be so excited, right?

Harold rarely won a bet, he was in a good mood, but he was inexplicably sprayed by Derrick, and he was very shocked, and he choked up: "Yes, yes, Mr. Drake, you are the most stable!" At this time, I was still taking a bath here, and I don't know who was dangling outside with a sword in a panic last night. ”

Drake's whole face suddenly became gloomy, and he pointed at Harold and shouted: "Stinky boy, you are really about to get out of my control, you are talking so presumptuously, go to the training room next to you to run 100 laps, report once when you run to the door, I will cut you one lap less!"

As soon as Drake's words came out, Harold wilted, drooped his head, and walked out of the bathroom to the training room and ran. Wu Ling and Yan Tianhan were not in a state of laughter, silently praying that the angry Drake would not harm the innocent.

"What are your rankings, tell me, and also, have you seen a person named Wan Shuo?"

"Yes, yes, yes, Wan Shuo is second!313 points!" Yan Tianhan saw that Drake's anger had dropped slightly, and he hurriedly picked up, "Wu Lingxue fell first in the city! ”

After Yan Tianhan finished speaking, he looked at Harold, and it was really Wan Shuo!

After listening to Yan Tianhan's report, Drake suddenly had a smile on his face and said, "Very good, very good, you guys are doing a good job! The process must be very exciting, let's hear it?"

Wu Ling smiled and said, "In exchange, would you like to recall your heroic past?"

Yan Tianhan had always wanted to hear Drake personally tell him about the events of the year, and without waiting for Drake to answer, he quickly echoed: "Yes! Teacher Drake, I always wanted to know how you rescued our whole family from dozens of robbers! Tell me, teacher!"

Drake didn't expect these kids to have this appeal, thinking about such a bloody scene has not been mentioned for a long time, and that battle is also a decisive factor in the direction of his life, it doesn't hurt to talk about it. Drake stretched out his finger and pointed at Wu Ling and said, "Go, call Harold to listen to it together." ”

By the time Wu Ling called Harold back, Drake had already wiped himself and put on his bathrobe, picked up a jetty steel dagger, and began to play with it.

"The number of graduates of the Imperial War College at that time was not very large, I can't remember how many there were, but I remember very well the number of graduates recruited by the Holy War Crusaders, a total of thirteen, a number I will never forget. ”

Harold's curiosity never ceased, and he asked, "Why, Mr. Drake." ”

Drake didn't get angry at Harold's interjection this time, as if he was waiting for Harold to ask, and naturally replied: "Because, in the end, in addition to me, there were twelve corpses, unrecognizable corpses. If it weren't for the mandatory wearing of metal nameplates at the Imperial War College at the time, the body would not have been identified, let alone claimed by the family. ”

Yan Tianhan was very surprised by this fact, and asked, "How could this be! Were they killed by the illegal mercenary organization in Lily City?"

Drake stroked the water in the bath with his dagger, sighed, and continued to recall, "What to say, I can only say that they deserve it!" Thirteen of our graduates went to the Holy Imperial Capital City Holy War Crusader Headquarters to report, on the way I heard that there was a massacre in Lily City, the situation was very critical, we were almost to Rose City, after Rose City is Lily City, so we decided to go to Lily City first, contribute some strength to the city defense guerrilla team to earn a military merit first, and then go to the Holy War Crusader Headquarters to report, after all, the Holy War Crusader is also an army, and accumulating some military merits before joining the company is very beneficial to future development. When we walked to the outskirts of Rose City, we came across a group of robbers, a total of 42 people, Yan Tianhan's parents and brother had been surrounded by this group of robbers at that time. I consulted with the other twelve to stop and rescue the family first, but they were all carried away by the military exploits at their fingertips in Lily City, and none of them stopped. But how can there be a reason not to save people when they see death? In the end, I was the only one who stopped saving people. Drake lowered his head, was silent for a while, and continued, "Have you ever heard of 'shoot a man first and shoot a horse first, and capture a thief first and capture the king first'? I know that those robbers are stupid, so they pretended to negotiate with the leader of this gang of robbers, pretending to want to ransom the Yan family with money, but in fact, it was to distract the leader, and when I caught the opportunity, I directly beheaded the leader. Guess what's going on?"

Drake seemed to have thought of something funny, and stopped, waiting for Wu Ling, Harold, and Yan Tianhan to answer.

"The next thing is the teacher, you kill them all. Harold couldn't help but speak.

But what Harold said was obviously not the most accurate answer, and Drake shook his head in denial, saying: "You wouldn't think of what a funny and ironic scene it was, when the group of robbers saw that the leader was dead, and several small leaders actually fought each other with their men in order to compete for the position of the leader. The only people in the robbers were a few of the cronies of the dead leader, and they were the only ones who launched a frenzied siege on me. But fortunately, there are not many of them, seven or eight people, I took a minute to kill them all, and the rest of the people I think about it, it will take about ten minutes, and all 42 people will be solved. ”

Harold couldn't help but sigh and said, "I can't see that you have such a murderous intention, teacher, and if you don't agree with each other, you will destroy a gang for others, and I don't want to talk more in the future." ”

Drake waved his hand, pointed out that Harold's judgment was completely wrong, and corrected: "Then you are wrong, you want to rely on burning and looting to achieve sudden wealth, you give me a reason not to destroy them." The corpse of the gang leader has not yet cooled down, they can immediately fight among themselves and start a civil war, such a low-level, inefficient and incompetent gang, you give me another reason not to destroy them, even if this kind of gang changes its evil and returns to the right, it is useless to the country, and it is not worthy of making fertilizer for the pasture grass of the Huayu Plain. ”

Yan Tianhan has lived in a very privileged environment since he was a child, and the education he received is very orthodox, although Yan Tianhan has long known this thing, but the disdainful attitude of treating human life like a mustard in Drake's tone really makes Yan Tianhan unbearable, and said: "Teacher, even if they are useless, they will not be guilty of death, I still think you are too reckless." ”

Drake was originally a jealous and hateful person, and when he heard Yan Tianhan's questioning, his voice suddenly became louder, and he said sternly: "Your set of convincing people with reason will not work with ignorant robbers, put away your set of so-called benevolence and righteousness in the upper class, and let any of them live, more families will suffer from bad luck." ”

"At the very least, they should be given a chance to mend their ways. ”

"Give them a chance to mend their ways, and now you can still stand here and talk to me?" Drake was very excited, pointed to Yan Tianhan's nose, and asked loudly.

Yan Tianhan was speechless for an instant, unable to refute, and lowered his head.

Wu Ling has not spoken, he has also experienced a massacre, Wu Ling is not much interested in that gang of robbers, Wu Ling really cares about the "Lily City Incident" that Yan Tianhan said before, but Drake has not said it, the atmosphere has also been messed up by Harold and Yan Tianhan, it is really not suitable to ask, but Wu Ling really can't hold back his curiosity, and asked timidly: "Teacher Drake," What kind of incident is the Lily City Incident, I'm curious why a good city was slaughtered inexplicably, it sounds too incredible, is the fate of Lily City and the thirty-five villages of Snow Fall City the same?"

When Drake heard Wu Ling mention what happened to the thirty-five villages of Snow Falling City, the flames of anger in his heart instantly extinguished, his eyes dimmed, and he sighed: "I'm sorry for the matter of the thirty-five villages of Snow Road City, it's my unladylike use that caused the ghost horned wolf to attack the village. "Referring to the 'Attack on the Thirty-Five Villages of Snowfall City', Drake was like a fish in his throat, and paused for a long time before continuing, "But the 'Lily City Incident' is completely different from the 'Thirty-five Village Attack in Snowfall City', the 'Lily City Incident' is an absolute taboo, and it is the fundamental reason why the Blade Council has been questioned for nearly twenty years, and the Holy Escape Organization was almost abolished because of this. You should treat it as a mystery that can never be touched, and it is enough to know that there is such a thing, and in the future, whether passive or active, I hope that you will never be involved in this taboo. ”

"Teacher, you have aroused our curiosity, and told us that we can't ask, you are really appetizing. Harold's curiosity was already very heavy, and when he heard Drake's admonition, he was very depressed and pouted to express his dissatisfaction.

"Whatever you want, this matter is over, it's all gone!" Drake didn't give Harold a chance to talk at all, and directly terminated the topic of the 'Lily City Incident'.
