Chapter 53: Pannis's Acquaintance
"Hey~~~~~ ha, hey~~~~ Nineteen sturdy young orcs put their shoulders on each other in a circle, each wearing only cyan shorts, wearing upper bodies, with various colors of oil paint painted in front of and behind them with totems representing the ancestors. The young men were barefoot, spinning around a wooden platform, their hands on each other's shoulders, but ninety-nine pairs of strong legs, accompanied by the beat of drums and gongs, danced in a toned and powerful rhythm. On a high platform of more than 30 meters, a rabbit girl stood in the wind, wearing a splendid colorful dress, her long hair and skirt were hunting and flying under the strong grassland wind, making the girl look like she might ride the wind at any time.
The rabbit girl's skin has a slight roughness peculiar to the grassland, and it is slightly blackened by the sun, but these shortcomings cannot hide her beautiful appearance. She was recognized as the most beautiful maiden in the more than a dozen nearby tribes, with the most beautiful body, the most splendid dance steps, the most charming appearance, and especially, she also had a pair of red crystal clear eyes, like two precious stones. She is the darling of the tribe, every unmarried young man thinks about her in his dreams, she is the dream lover of all young people, this horse herding festival, she not only serves as a shrine maiden who assists the shaman to worship the god of war, but also prepares to choose a lifelong partner at the most regarded horse race. As soon as this news came out, half of the grassland was a sensation, and the teenagers from the surrounding tribes frantically rushed here, just to get a chance to be favored by her.
"It's too hasty to choose a marriage partner like this. Catherine rode on her horse, and a group of people walked around the nearby grassland: "She didn't know most of them at all, how could she choose a suitable lover." ”
"The girls on the prairie all choose people like this. Pannis and Marcia next to him were holding a large piece of mare's milk cheese and eating as they walked: "Horse herding festival." Hey, the day of the arrival of spring, three days in a row. Every day at the bonfire, the girls will choose their favorite man to spend a good night with, and then make a lifelong agreement on this night. ”
"It sounds beautiful. Lina sneered and continued her vicious assessment: "Actually, it's just two men and women who are instinctively controlled, finding a reasonable excuse to do something in the season when love erupts. ”
"Well, you're thinking too much about that. Pannis's mouth was stuffed with cottage cheese. said vaguely: "The orcs on the grassland actually attach great importance to this combination, and once they choose each other, there are few who regret it for no reason." At this time, repentance is likely to cause a war between two families or even two tribes, and the cost is very high. ”
"I see. Lina's expressionless head suddenly squinted at Pannis: "You must have deceived many girls and children here, otherwise how would you know so clearly." ”
"Hahaha. How can it be. "Pannis almost choked on the cheese in his mouth. Coughing dryly, he said: "I actually rarely come to the grassland, I know these just because of my knowledge, hahahaha." ”
"Really?" Not only Lina, but several of the girls all looked at Pannis with strange eyes. Instead of wearing the black swordsman's suit, Pannis changed into a black trench coat, with a collar up, a large wide-brimmed hat on his head, and glasses made of black crystal on his face. Covering his face with only his nose and mouth remaining: "At first glance, you are not a good person, I think it is better to inform the girls around you to stay away from you." Otherwise, it is easy to cause tragedy. ”
A group of people rushed to the Mokia tribe early in the morning, because there were too many people and there were two little undead, so they did not choose to spend money to live in the orc's house, but rented a vacant land in the rental area and set up a small camp with tents. After that, everyone mingled with the lively crowd and wandered between the venues. The biggest difference between the festival on the grassland and the festival of humans is the difference between the means of transportation. In the past, the girls of the adventuring group used to walk between the streets to participate in the festival, but they had to ride horses on the grassland, and if they only relied on foot, it would take more than half a day to travel between the two fields. So now everyone is riding on a horse, which can be regarded as a new experience when participating in the festival.
"Well, why is she here too? Lina suddenly raised her eyebrows, and her eyes slashed across Pannis's face like a knife: "You really came here for a purpose, to see them?"
"Ha, ha, ha, how is that possible. Pannis smiled dryly and said, "I don't know them, no, I don't know who you're talking about, how can you come to see them, hehehehe, it's impossible." ”
"Who. Catherine ignored Pannis's stupid words and whispered to Lina, "Did you see an acquaintance?"
"Helped me once, it inspired me a lot. Lina said to Nunu in the distance: "That little girl in white." ”
Catherine followed Lina's line of sight, and in the distance there was a group of people on special horses, gathered in front of the starting line to wait for the start, it was another group of runners preparing for the horse race. As the most important race in the horse herding festival, the horse racing competition can be freely signed up for by tourists and orcs from surrounding tribes, whether it is a professional or an ordinary person. In the race, everyone is only allowed to race with ordinary horses, and professionals are not allowed to use professional skills, and the rest is not restricted.
Lina's gaze was a little girl in a white dress, with a white dress, white leather shoes, and a white parasol, riding steadily on a black horse and waiting patiently. Not far from her, a little girl wearing the same black dress and holding a black parasol was looking up and talking to her companion. Her companion was also dressed in a strange way, tall and slender, with a black cloak all over his body, and his face covered with the same gray cloth, so that he could not see his appearance or exact body shape at all, but only a pair of eyes that were intoxicating.
"Huh, eyes?" Catherine immediately lowered her head and withdrew her gaze, because the other party had sensed her gaze from a distance of tens of meters and looked over. In the process of retracting her gaze, she seemed to see a big dog that looked like a lion lying at the feet of the little girl in a black dress, the big dog was yawning boredly with its mouth open, but when her eyes staggered, she could see the humanized smile in its eyes.
"Who are those people?" Catherine frowned, and said very concernedly, "I feel that strange feeling again, like when I met the president, are you really here to see them?" Hey, Pennis, what are you hiding there for?"
When Catherine looked at Pannis, she saw that there was no one on the horse's back, and that Pannis was hiding behind the indulgent and enthusiastic horse like a thief, looking cautious. Hearing Catherine's question, Pannis hid more tightly, and said with a dry smile: "No, no, no, I don't know them, I'm here to worship the dead, hahahaha." ”
"Idiocy again. Vivien had been silent all the time, and at this time she finally couldn't help herself and made the most apt comment. However, although Pannis refused to answer, the three girls still cooperated and stood side by side, blocking the gap between Pannis and the group, separating the possible path of eye contact between the two sides.
The long whip was pumped into the air with a loud popping sound. The riders, who had been preparing for a long time, heard the signal and at the same time signaled the horses to start, and dozens of horses lined up in a row, like the tide of the Naramia River, with a thunderous roar, and advanced rapidly into the distance, and in the blink of an eye they were thousands of meters away.
"Hahahaha. On horseback, the little girl in a white dress let out a series of crisp laughs, and her light and fluttering body fluttered up and down with the ups and downs of the horse's back as if it had no weight, and she ran in the first place as a matter of course.
"Isn't it true that professionals can't use skills?" Catherine, as a bystander from afar, suddenly asked casually, "How can she still run so fast?"
"She doesn't use her skills, she's just very lightweight. And she doesn't know how to ride a horse at all, just wait and see the excitement. Pannis gloated, but immediately reacted, and said with a wandering look in his eyes: "Well, I guess, I don't know them at all, hahahaha." ”
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you. Catherine sneered and gave Pennis a blank look: "Don't worry, we won't ask, you can keep your strange secret in your heart, huh." ”
"Hey, hey, hey. Pannis smirked, and when he turned his head, he saw enthusiasm and indulgence together, looking at him with a strange look: "Why are you two so weird, and what are you thinking about?"
"Do you know them?" Indulgence suddenly leaned over and leaned over to Pannis's ear, and whispered: "No wonder you are all silver rank, the difference in strength is too big, which of the six human beings are you? Or do you belong to one of the hidden worlds?"
"Hahaha, what are you talking about. Pannis's cold sweat flowed from his dry laughter: "I didn't understand a word." ”
"It's okay, I just happened to see those two girls from afar. Indulgence was placed in Pannis's ear, and he blew softly into his ear: "Don't worry, I won't sue them." ”
"Oops. The horse beneath Lina seemed to be suddenly a little restless, and spun around in fidget a few times, and the horse's head hit Pannis's back, knocking Pennis, who was clinging to the indulgence, out of the way.
"It's strange why you're spinning around. Lina deliberately pretended to be strange, patted the horse on the neck and said, "Let you be disobedient, look, I've bumped into something strange, don't do this next time." ”
Ness was knocked to the side, and wailed pitifully: "Why hit me suddenly, I didn't do anything." ”
"Ha, that's its decision. Lina said with a straight face and expressionlessness: "You better ask it, if you can understand." ”
