The Early Spring Festival is a very important festival for the inhabitants of neutral lands, especially the more urban residents live. As early as March 7, the streets of the Knowledge Capital began to be busy with the festival. Most of the shops have two pots of man-made pink fruit trees at the door, and the walls and windows outside the store are also covered with posters depicting a sea of pink fruit flowers.

Bakeries are selling bread in the shape of pink fruits, food stores are selling vegetable balls and powder fruit wine, which are essential for going out to enjoy the flowers, and toy shops are selling windmills and bagpipes, which are popular for children on outings, and expensive magic dolls.

On the 8th of March, the number of people in the city began to decrease, with the largest number of people in the profession. Due to the large population of the capital of knowledge, the beautiful places on the outskirts of the city have become places that everyone yearns for, and many people start to set out for their favorite spots in advance, intending to occupy a favorable terrain before the festival begins, so that they and their families can enjoy a perfect festival to the fullest. As professionals with strong combat effectiveness, it is not easy to compete with ordinary people for a safe place close to the city, so they can only set off two days or even earlier to go to the outer areas or even the wilderness outside the city's control range, anyway, for them, the wilderness is not very dangerous, and it is far cleaner than the surrounding city, but it will be more comfortable.

By March 9, there were fewer people in the city, most of the shops had closed, and the once bustling metropolis was quieter, and even the air was fresher. From time to time, a horse-drawn carriage drove by a cab on the street. Those were all tourists who rushed to the woodlands in advance. In the interval between the carriages, there are occasionally some walkers carrying large bags and small bags. Although these people are reluctant to hire a horse-drawn carriage to travel, even if they rely on their own legs, they have to go to the nearby areas outside the city to enjoy the flowers and relax, so that this early spring festival will not pass in vain. There are also some people who don't have the conditions or time to travel, but fortunately, there are also small pink fruit forests in the city, and each thick pink fruit tree can accommodate a small family, so that they can also fully enjoy the fun of the festival.

It was the evening of March 9. The sides of the streets that should have been brightly lit were dimmed, and the people who remained in the city went to bed early to recuperate for the next morning's departure.

"Enjoy the flowers, go green. With an irrepressible smile and humming a tune of unknown meaning, Vivien was bouncing around the mansion to pack her belongings, and the excitement in her heart was almost manifested outside her body. Catherine and Lina sat on the sidelines, watching Vivien load a bunch of things into her bag in one go, and regretfully pull them out one by one. Swap in another pile and stuff it in. Both of them understand Vivian's excitement, she has been lying in bed for more than ten years, it can be said that she has not participated in any festival activities since she was a child, and now she still has a strong sense of freshness for each festival. Any small festival can make her excited and overwhelmed. Of course, to put it mildly, for her, these festivals are one less than one. No one knows if there will be another chance, and under such pressure, of course, I cherish the festival.

And actually. For Vivien, the meaning of the holiday is not about the activities that ordinary people like to enjoy, but what really excites her, in addition to the meaning of the word festival itself, is to have fun with her family and friends, which is the most important thing.

"Hasn't Pannis come back yet, big sister?" Vivien, who was immersed in excitement, suddenly asked, "Where has he gone?"

"I'm going to book a carriage. Catherine looked at the timer: "I'm afraid it's very difficult to book a carriage at this time today." ”

"If it doesn't work, let's rent a few horses. Vivien said, "I don't have a lot of luggage anyway. ”

"If it doesn't work, that's the way it is. Catherine said helplessly: "However, tonight is going to be a night away, are you really okay if you ride a horse?"

"Absolutely. Vivien patted her barren chest and said proudly, "For the sake of tonight's formation, I didn't do anything during the day, and slept all day." ”

"That's not something to be proud of. Lina snapped the book and pouted, "But you don't have to worry about it, eldest sister, even if this stupid person lets her sleep tonight, she will probably be so excited that she can't sleep, so it's better to spend her time on hurrying." ”

"Dangdang. There was a knock in the living room, and pansy and mimosa walked in: "Three masters, are you looking for us?"

"Do you know how to ride horses?" asked Catherine, "you don't need good technique, just a simple way to ride." ”

"Well, it's okay to ride a horse simply. Pansy nodded, "Is there something for us to do?"

"No, no, no, it's much easier for you to ride, so you don't have to hire a carriage. Catherine said, "Tomorrow you will go with you, have you ever attended the Early Spring Festival before?"

The corners of the two maids' mouths twitched, and they lowered their heads and did not answer.

"I see, but don't be afraid. Catherine smiled and comforted the two girls: "No one will hurt you here, even if you encounter any problems, we are in your way, so you should be ready for a good holiday." ”

"Is it really possible?" The two girls glanced at each other, and asked with some excitement but also some fear: "Otherwise, let's stay and watch the house, and go back next time we have a chance." ”

"Oh, there's nothing to be afraid of, if you don't take the first step, you can only always pin your hopes on the next time. Catherine walked over and gently nudged the two girls: "Now go back and pack your things, well, in fact, there is nothing to pack, we have almost brought all the things, you can find if there is anything you like to eat with you, tomorrow's lunch and dinner will be solved outside." ”

"Thank you hosts. The two maids were shy and grateful, and they agreed to go a little bit, and opened the door of the living room with Catherine's push: "Then let's go clean up first, and it will be fine soon." ”

Outside the door of the living room, in the darkness at the end of the hallway, six big eyes flickered and blinked, staring pitifully into the living room. Catherine beckoned with a smile: "Alright." Come here, you've packed it up. ”

There was a cheer in the shadows, and the twin sisters and a little banshee, the three 'people' rushed into the living room together. Just now, when everyone was packing their things, because the three of them were messing around, Lina blasted them out of the living room, and they were strictly ordered not to come in until they finished packing their luggage, and the ban was not lifted until then.

"Sister Catherine, what about the kite, what about the kite, did you bring the kite?" Michelle asked hurriedly as soon as she entered the house, "We want to fly a kite." ”

"What kind of kite to fly. Lina said angrily: "Who has ever seen flying a kite in the woods, it is impossible to fly it." ”

"Hmm. Michelle lowered her head in frustration: "I still want to fly a kite for Sister Anne." She said she had never flown a kite. ”

"There will be a chance. Lina beckoned, and the twin sisters threw themselves into her arms: "You may have to ride a horse at night, and your sister Catherine and I will take you with you, and the road will be dark at that time, so you are not allowed to cry." ”

"We're not kids anymore. The twins raised their heads and said dissatisfiedly: "I won't be afraid of the dark, and I won't cry casually, Sister Lina, you look down on us too much." ”

"Knock knock, bang. Knock knock. "There was a distinct knock on the door and a loud running sound, and the ground seemed to shake with the sound of thumping footsteps. The footsteps suddenly stopped, and the door to the living room was pushed open. Freya's huge body stood at the door, and she gave a thumbs up and said proudly: "It's done, near the rabbit's foot village, a hundred kilometers away from the holy capital, there is a large, large pink fruit forest. And, most importantly, there are very few people there. ”

"Are you sure?" Catherine asked happily, "There is no one in such a nice place?" ”

"Absolutely not. Freya said mysteriously, "I only found out about it for personal gain, and there are still scouts from the guild watching there." Hey. Many staff members in the guild were ready to rush over overnight, if it was really a scout false alarm, it was estimated that the scout would be beaten to death by a large group of angry members, so rest assured, it should be true, and it is unlikely that it will be wrong. ”

The three girls of the adventuring group gave Freya a thumbs up in unison, but downward, and Catherine said angrily: "You guy, I said how did you take the initiative to take the task of finding a place, it turns out that you have already planned to do so." Didn't you tell your father that you want to live on your own? Why did you secretly use the power of the guild by relying on his identity just a few days after you finished speaking?"

"I didn't rely on my father's strength, it was Uncle Erlan of the City Guard who sued me on his own initiative. Freya stroked the hair of her sideburns, stroked her fair cheeks, and said intoxicatedly: "Even if I get fat, I am still so cute in everyone's eyes, so they can't help but reveal their secrets to me." ”

"You ......" Lina covered her eyes and groaned, "You better go lose weight first, and then talk about this after losing weight." ”

"Dangdang. There was a knocking sound in the window of the living room, and when the curtain was opened, Pannis was lying on the window like a lizard: "The carriage is ready, ready to go." ”

"That's great news. Lina was the first to stand up and pick up her backpack, and said that she was not much worse than Vivian about the excitement of the festival: "I didn't expect you to be very reliable, how did you find the carriage?"

"It's easy. Pannis pushed open the window and rushed in: "Standing in the middle of the road, seeing a carriage, knocking the people in the carriage unconscious, and then driving the car back, look, isn't it simple?"

"Hey!" Lina raised her fist: "If you perfunctory me, you will be careful for me." ”

"Well, actually a freight wagon. Pannis reluctantly told the truth: "And the old freight carriage, but the quality is very good, it can be used completely." ”

"That's enough, let's go, early spring sacrifice. (To be continued......)
