The celebration is similar in all parts of the White Moon Country, and the festival in the city will have the same scene as the parade of Disneyland floats, and the festival in the town will be filled with music, food, food and drink.

Midali was talking to the city lord's butler in a very official manner, but the city lord and the float were delayed.

"I'm sorry, Legionnaire. It's still early, and you'll probably have to wait a little longer to see if the drink will taste good. ”

Midali's whole body was polite to the sky, and she showed a good patience that was completely different from her usual state. The old butler spoke with some exaggeration, and in about twenty minutes the first float slipped into the square, in the image of a large bird, followed by a float that looked like a human hunter with a bow and chased after him.

The two things slowly circled around the circular flower bed, and the city lord appeared. This is a man who looks quite young, but his body hair is quite thick, his face is full of beard, and the back of his hands is also hairy, and he looks like an Arab from somewhere.

This man came to the main stand with two fancy guards with helmets and armor who couldn't withstand Zhou Shu's punch, and gave Midali a furry smile, "Fire-Eyed Legion, I'm sorry I'm late." As he said this, he stretched out his hand and waved to the citizens who had gathered around the square to participate in the celebration.

Midali smiled and said, "It's okay, the mercenaries are all good at waiting. ”

Zhou Shu hugged his arms on the side, he knew that he was not the protagonist in this, there were no lines, as long as he stood honestly. He was right, the city lord politely asked Midali's three entourages, one woman and one man, and the latter only said that the three were bodyguards, and then there was nothing to do with Zhou Shu.

The lord of the castle slightly complimented Natty and the Knight of the Archer, and then pretended to admire the float. He grabbed a wine glass in one hand and took Midali's hand in the other, leading her to see the float that had stopped moving and was leaning to the side. "The Fire-Eye Legion Captain is not a local, so he shouldn't know the origin of the story of this first float in the local festival, right?"

Midali was dressed as a light traveler's outfit. There was a shoulder on the dress. This dress is quite casual, not formal attire, and you don't need to wear too strict about this thing for celebrations. Strictly speaking, though, this is probably the most feminine Midali has had in a few days.

According to the lord of the city. The young man with the bow in the first float is a hero who saved the city from the mouth of a strange bird the size of a mountain. This is a legend from 300 years ago, and due to the relatively strong nature of the region, it has not spread very widely.

The strange bird, like most monsters that enter the city, is desperate to find trouble with the landmark, and is finally shot to death by the hero, and the story is not interesting at all, and it is natural that it has not spread.

The story is boring, but the float is really good. When the first float came to a stop, the front of the arrow in the hero's hand suddenly burst into flames. As the flames flickered. A burst of cheers erupted among the onlookers. Zhou Shu wondered what these guys were calling, but he was scared in the next second. The arrow on fire in the dummy's hand flew out with a 'boom', and the thing was as thick as a small tree, and I don't know how it flew, and it stabbed the fake bird in the chest at once. The bird also caught fire at once.

Then the float moved to the bonfire that had been erected in the middle of the square, and the burning fake birds were catapulted into a large pile of neatly stacked firewood, and the bonfire gradually ignited. Master Zhou can see it on the side, this is the lighting ceremony of the Olympic flame, and it seems that it is done every year.

As the bonfire grew stronger, the fake bird's body was completely immersed in the fire. I don't know if this bird has chestnuts or something in its body. Burning and crackling, sparks splashing, it looks a little interesting.

"It's quite emotional. Nati commented heartlessly, Zhou Shu snorted on the side, put his hand in his pocket and grabbed his phone, and decided to invite her to watch a small movie tonight. Give this guy a long insight.

As the bonfires were lit and the subsequent floats came one after the other, the lord ordered the musicians to play music, which meant that the festivities had officially begun.

As a guest, Midali didn't really want to stay here for too long with the city lord. She came this time with a mission. At this time, she was really worried about those werewolves who were discovered by Zhou Shu's strange powers.

Fortunately, the city lord is not completely heartless, and Midali sent the werewolf to the city lord before the celebration, which was already considered to be a disappointment to him. Or even before, when the falcon slayer came to his land, the lord of the city, who was supposed to be happy to collect ornamental fish, was already doomed to leave his interest and bury himself in work.

After the bagpipes and accordions were played, the lord smirked at the crowd and chatted with Midali about business.

"Legionnaire, thank you so much for that werewolf monster. There are still people in my family who remember that thing exactly as they did fifty years ago. ”

The city lord's sudden opening made Midali's brow furrow, "Have you already confirmed with someone?

"There shouldn't be any fakes, it's just fifty years, it's not very long, and there are always people who remember those monsters. ”

Zhou Shu, Nati and the Archer Knight relied on their ears and quietly eavesdropped on the two of them. Midali hadn't thought that the monster werewolf would have something to do with the events of fifty years ago, and she didn't dare to think in that direction because she had the guts to think about it.

When the archer heard this, he secretly said in his heart, 'Sure enough', Zhou Shu had long felt that it didn't matter. Based on the analysis of the information he has obtained, the Knight King and the shadow of the disaster that he let go are eighty percent of the culprits of this incident, and I don't know what kind of demon he is. As for Nati, for Midali's conversation with the city lord, it was completely in and out of the left ear, and it did not affect her in any way.

Zhou Shu was using the Book of Summoning to guard the surrounding situation, and now the ant-like crowd under the main stand gave him a lot of pressure, and usually when a bodyguard encounters this kind of chaotic situation, he will be very nervous. Master Zhou, who was inexplicably infected with the bodyguard's occupational disease, found a lot of people with summoning points of about seven or eight thousand in the nearby crowd.

These people are already considered non-commissioned officer ranks, they belong to the kind of two-system cloud-level martial artists, and their combat effectiveness is not bad, at least they are stronger than the two guys who look okay in handsome armor next to the city lord.

'Are these people the subordinates of this city lord?' Zhou Shu looked at the age of these martial artists, all of them were middle-aged people in their thirties and forties.

At present, among the non-commissioned officers of the White Moon Country, the people who are close to the side are all young people, and these people need to accumulate merits with war. Although it is impossible to rely on accumulated merit to become a thousand-man commander who can only be taken on by high-combat combat warriors, it is possible to get a military Chinese job or even a knighthood. It is also possible to serve as a corps commander.

And the older warriors are basically gathered in the interior, and before the appearance of the new land, the Iron Key City happened to be the belly of the White Moon Kingdom. What these people need is stability. Most of them who have families and jobs have given up the unrealistic fantasies of their youth, and they look down on their ambitions and take care of their families.

From the character traits of this kind of people, Zhou Shu thinks that they should not be his own trouble, although the number of people in this group is more than forty, which is quite large.

There were 22 floats in total, which is an average number for similar events in the city in previous years. When all the floats gather in the square, the square is almost dressed up as an amusement park.

By this time, the sun had begun to set slightly, and Midali had begun to talk to the lord about more sensitive and intimate topics. The lord of the city said. Something went wrong on the side of the Vale Mountains guarded by Iron Key.

Iron Key City was originally the border of the White Moon Country, and the valley mountain range to the southwest used to be the territory of the White Night Country, which was very, very long history.

At that time, the national strength of the White Night Country was constantly declining, but it relied on this natural danger to hold the land for decades without being encroached, which shows how easy and difficult to defend and attack is in the valley and mountain range.

The lord of the city said. I hadn't actually received any news from the valley mountains two weeks ago. There were no merchants, no messengers, no mothers for her birthday, and no one came to congratulate her friends when they received invitations, not even to send people to send gifts.

This situation was not taken seriously by the city until last week, and it should have been investigated as soon as possible, but the city side had been dealing with bandits and roadbandits around the city before, and they didn't have that time. Now the appearance of the monster werewolf can be regarded as making the city lord understand how to be a man, and he will be admitting his mistake to Midali. said that he was derelict in this matter as the lord of the city.

'Dereliction of duty?' Midalie almost jumped up and punched the lord twice in the furry face. She said in her heart that she was meticulous in her work, and she knew to say hello to the boss before entering the valley mountains, so she found out that something was wrong. If you just go in so aggressively, will it not be a meat filling?

The loss of contact with the three cities of the valley and the mountains?

The inhabitants of the valley mountain range are the most powerful in the White Moon Country. Entering the valley, it is basically considered to have entered the southern part of the kingdom, which is the only dense forest area in the White Moon Country, where human beings basically live and deal with poisonous snakes and beasts.

The area suddenly became isolated, and monsters were found. Although Midali and the city lord don't want to admit it, it seems that there is only one possibility at the moment.

"I hope we're too careful......" Midalie felt that it was too disappointing for this big celebration to say this, and it was rare for herself to lie to herself, and comfort the city lord by the way.

The city lord was very calm, scratched his nose with the back of his hand, and then sneezed very impolitely. Midali saw it in her eyes and bet it must have been this guy's hand feathers that played the role of feathers.

"Captain of the Fire-Eyed Legion. Once again, the lord called Midali the nickname he didn't like, "I hope your army can do me a favor." ”

Midali smiled dryly and responded, "It's impossible for us to venture into the valley with the falcons, in fact, we have already sent two teams into the valley, and there is no contact at the moment. ”

Hearing this, the city lord nodded and understood: "It is reasonable, but since this is the case, I will make you leave me as soon as possible." I'm not driving you away, but when this happens, as a lord, I must spread the situation as far as possible, and I must also ask for support from White Moon City. ”

Midali nodded, knowing very well that if the legion of White Moon City appeared, she was afraid that she would have to fight with others, so it was better to leave decisively. There are a lot of things that she doesn't know now, but it should be clear tomorrow, because the Gray Witch will be coming tomorrow. It's a great blessing to have a flying friend at this time.

The festival continued, and the castle lord's steward said that it was time to start tasting the ornamental fish. The festival was essentially a beauty contest for aquarium fish, where anyone could come to the contest, with the city's nobles as judges and awarding prizes to the fish and their owners. If you get a good rank, you can also sell it for a good price, or give it to the lord of the city to sell a good favor.

Zhou Shu had been curious before. What happened to his summon and the peddler? He made sure that both of them were nearby, but he didn't bother to look for them at all because of the vast crowd in the audience.

Midali and the city lord talked about whether the appearance of the werewolf was a sign of something, as if this was a big topic, and the city lord was not at all interested in the ornamental fish table that the citizens were moving to the table one by one.

Judging by this situation. Master Zhou was basically sure that the words from the peddler's mouth were probably heard by him through false rumors. Although the lord of the city looked a little hairy, it could be seen from the conversation between Guò and Midali that this man was quite serious, and showed no signs of corruption and depravity.

In contrast, Zhou Shu's interest in the ornamental fish pageant is much higher, similar to those citizens in the audience. He was mainly looking for someone, and according to his heart, his old man really wanted to see the hawker appear here, which proved that his own summons recognized him as a good man. Good marriage partner. Zhou Shu hopes to see more and more good people in this world.

As a result, as more and more people brought up their treasured little goldfish, Zhou Shu saw that it was not the vendor, but his own summon to take his place, appearing with a glass and a goldfish.

When the cloth in the summoner's hand is lifted, the glass is revealed. Buying vegetables in the vegetable market is generally casual and unrestricted, and the crowd of onlookers hula all gathered over.

Zhou Shu slapped himself in the face and made a crisp 'pop'. The city lord heard the voice and glanced over to this side, and then said to Zhou Shu, Nati and the archer, "You don't have to be so restrained, you can be more casual." ”

The Knight Archer nodded his head in thanks to the city lord, and then found a place to poke it very casually, and continued to play the role of a telephone pole in this world.

Due to the crowd rushing over all of a sudden, Zhou Shu lost the trace of his summoned object for a while. So he casually turned into a candy that strengthened his eyesight and stuffed it into his mouth.

Just now, Nati was attracted by the sound of 'pop' and kept reading Zhou Shu. Seeing that he casually pinched something out of the air and ate it in his mouth, Nati thought it was some kind of flying insect, and decisively ridiculed Zhou Shu.

"Why are you so disgusting, catching insects and eating them. Is this the custom of your people? It's terrible. ”

Nati spoke. The other nobles who were also in the main stand turned their eyes to him, and then talked about him, a yellow-skinned and black-haired guy. Master Zhou really wanted to throw Nati out of here with one leg, but he couldn't beat her.

The martial artist who didn't reach his first grade played a two-month level, which was basically self-defeating. There aren't many chestnuts like Xiao Tao that rely on the physical abilities of ordinary humans to kill moon-level martial artists, and they can't replicate their success.

Zhou Shu grabbed Nati's mouth and told her to stop. Then, magically, he shook his fingers in front of her eyes, conjured a handful of candy, and stuffed it into Natty's mouth.

The bow knight was all kinds of frightened when he saw this scene, and said that Zhou Shu's horse feet were finally exposed, and those colorful round beans should be poisonous, right?

Nati didn't feel Zhou Shu's malice, so she opened her mouth to eat. She likes candy a lot, and she doesn't have enough to eat it, she wants more. Just before she could say yes, the effect of the sugar was there. This handful is a jelly bean that Zhou Shu has accumulated to strengthen the sense of smell.

He didn't dare to eat this thing himself, he would vomit out disgusting after eating, and now he was also very deeply hidden by malice to honor the stupid guy in front of him.

Nattie did get the trick, and although a large handful of candy had the same effect as a candy, she covered her nose in shock, afraid of smelling the disgusting smell in the air. Soon she felt disgusting with the smell of her hands and nostrils, and tears left her face.

"Breathe through your mouth. Zhou Shu kindly reminded her and told her about the effect of sugar. Nati whispered with tears in her eyes, "I know it's wrong, please give me the antidote!!!"

The Knight of the Archer also heard this, and therefore confirmed his suspicions.

Zhou Shu said in a coaxing tone: "If you don't mess with me within two hours, I'll give it to you." "Actually, the effect of this jelly bean is only two hours.

Nati learns her lesson, nods, and begins her life of breathing through her mouth like a patient with severe nasal congestion. While she was messing with her, order had been maintained on the side of the glass and the summon, and two fish with a gorgeous gradient of color like a rainbow glittered in the sunlight reflected off the glass.

Compared with other people's small wooden tubs, the champion of the tournament should not have run, but I don't know what the summon will do after winning the prize. Secretary Zhou said before that if the hawker pestered the rich lady of the family and was not a good match for the family, then win the competition and work hard to marry the other family and treat her well. Now summon things to compete, which means that the peddler is not a good person, but a scumbag.

Master Zhou is very glad about this, fortunately, he kept an eye on it when he helped people this time, otherwise he would hurt the young lady for the rest of his life. Although they have never met, they are always self-inflicted. After eating the lesson so many times, I finally got a little witty.

When he thought about it, he was quite confident, thinking that he had really grown.
