[4319] Chapter 178 Thanksgiving Day
In the morning, Raymond came to the lobby of the inn and saw Isabella and Golantis waiting for him, Golantis was wearing a silver mask on her face, and she couldn't see her expression, but when she saw Raymond walking over, she turned away.
It seemed that what happened last night had cast a shadow on her.
Raymond shook his head helplessly, he didn't explain too much about last night's incident, one is that it is not important, and the other is that kind of thing, even if it is explained, can Golantis believe it?
Golantis turned his back to Raymond and said, "The airship will not arrive here in five days, which means that we will have to wait here for five days." ”
"That's just waiting here. ”
If you are in a hurry, it will take at least half a month to reach the bronze city.
Raymond spent a silver coin to buy a newspaper, and technology and magic developed at the same time on the continent of Arad, and things like newspapers had been around for hundreds of years.
The headlines in the newspapers were the 357th wedding of Prince Caesar, followed by the Jarvit family domain, which was accepted by the Dennis family, and the rest was a celebration of the empire.
There wasn't any news about Huttonmar, much to Raymond's disappointment.
Bang, bang, bang!
The sound of firecrackers suddenly sounded outside, and the innkeeper walked in with a smile on his face: "Dear guests, today is our monthly Thanksgiving Day in Pulitan City, and this is a thanksgiving event that the residents of the city spontaneously hold to Lord Dean, and we can't miss it." "Intoxicating chapter & section small.Said in hey ~ smoke ~ grid
Thanksgiving Day?
"Let's go, let's see. ”
Outside, the streets were already crowded with people, and Raymond saw a lot of emotional residents, shouting Dean's name.
An old open-top carriage came from a distance, and Dean, the lord of Pletan City, dressed in a gentleman's tight-fitting suit and with some gray hair, sat in the carriage and beckoned kindly to the people on both sides.
The screams, the cries, overshadowed everything, and the scene made Raymond stunned.
Dean's carriage drove all the way to the downtown square and stopped.
"All the inhabitants of Pritan City thank Lord Dean for his care. ”
"All the inhabitants of Pulitan City thank Lord Dean for his kindness!"
"All the inhabitants of Pulitan City thank Lord Dean for his selfless dedication!"
The residents fell to their knees, chanting Dean's name.
It wasn't until Dean raised his hand that the shouting stopped.
"My dear people, if there is anything you need my help with, just say it. ”
"Master Dean!" A beggar stumbled up to Dean and fell to his knees: "Lord Dean, I am a wanderer who escaped from the Bronze City, because I admire Dean and very much want to be a member of Pulitan City, and I hope that Lord Nian will approve it." ”
Dean looked at the beggar kindly, "Poor man, what's your name?"
"Lord Hui, my name is Lu. ”
"From this day forward, I will give you a name, and you will be called Diru, and you will follow me and become my bodyguard. ”
"Thank you, sir!" Diru fell to his knees.
The people around them let out a sea of cries and screams.
"May the gods protect Lord Dean and not let him suffer anything. ”
When Golantis saw this, he couldn't help but pray again.
Lord Dean asked, "Who else needs my help?"
"Lord Dean, I am a shepherd, and my dozen or so cows, for some reason, all died overnight, and I hope that my lord will be the master for me!"
"I'll give you a hundred cows!"
"Lord Dean, my wife, Susanna, and the king blacksmith next door ran away......
"Don't worry, I'll immediately send the guards to arrest them, my wife will be returned to you, and the king blacksmith will be burned at the stake!"
The thanksgiving event lasted from morning to noon, and Dean did not refuse to come, whether it was an outsider or a local resident, as long as he asked for it, he would solve it all.
"Dean is the greatest and kindest lord I have ever met, may the gods grant him eternal happiness. ”
Golantis's emotions also stirred, and she was touched by Lord Dean's good deeds.
Isabella stood behind her with a blank face, apparently not feeling the warmth of Master Dean at all.
"Even if he is sanctimonious, if he can help the vast majority of people, it is not a bad thing. ”
Raymond's thoughts are different from others, but he thinks more about the sanctimonious people, most of whom will not really help the vast majority of people.
"Lord Dean, Lord Dean, I have a request for you!"
Near Raymond, a gray-haired woman cried loudly and tried to run to Dean's side, but was stopped by a circle of people at the front, and no matter how much she howled, she could not rush in.
Master Dean was not protected by any soldiers, and it felt like anyone could rush to him, but every time he rushed to his side, there was only one person.
Raymond took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and listened with his ears, and in his keen ear perception, he heard that there were many people around him who wanted to seek Dean's help, and wanted to rush to Dean, but unfortunately, they were all stopped by the circle of people who were blocking the front.
That circle of people?
Raymond opened his eyes, looked closely, and soon discovered the mystery.
In the outermost circle, all of them looked indifferent, and kept stopping the people who tried to rush in.
These are not the populace at all, but Dean's soldiers!
Raymond walked up behind Golantis and said, "Don't thank you too early, you see these people, they also have needs, but they can't rush in at all." ”
Golantis said: "Lord Dean is not a god, and his ability can only help some people, isn't this the sorrow of mortals? ”
Raymond was speechless.
The thanksgiving activity continued, and there were still many people around who wanted to rush in, but without exception, all of them were stopped.
The activity continued into noon, when Dean got into the carriage and left.
"Lord Dean has solved a total of 171 people's problems today, such a kind deed is something I can't do at all, the gods are ......"
Golantis got excited again.
As Dean left, the people around him dispersed, and those who really needed it were crying, distracted, and sitting on the ground.
"Come here. ”
Raymond beckoned to Golantis and walked over to the gray-haired aunt who was sitting on the ground.
"Auntie, if you have any needs, you can tell us, and we can solve them for you. ”
The gray-haired aunt looked at them with empty eyes and did not speak.
Raymond looked around and whispered, "We are Lord Dean's cronies. ”
"Lord Dean, Lord Dean, you must call the shots for me!"
The gray-haired aunt immediately came to her senses, hugged Raymond's thigh and cried.
"My daughter, Elena, who is well-behaved and lovely, suddenly disappeared last month, leaving only a letter for me. ”
Raymond took the aunt's letter and checked it with Golantis, and the content of the letter was roughly that the daughter wanted to see the outside world and told her mother not to worry.
"My daughter is only sixteen years old and has never left the house, she can't have the idea of wandering alone, woowoo woo woo ......"
"Come here, there's another one. ”
Raymond walked over to another middle-aged uncle who was crying bitterly.
After inquiry, the middle-aged uncle's situation was similar to that of the aunt, and his daughter disappeared for no reason.
Golantis took the initiative to inquire about the third one, crying bitterly, and got the same information as the first two, all of which were missing daughters.
Just when Golantis was a little shocked, a group of people with weapons suddenly came, and brutally took away all the people who were crying in the vicinity.
The streets were quiet.
"The gods are above, what's going on?" for a while, Golantis couldn't accept it.
