Chapter 492: Celebrating the Harvest Festival

In the morning, Du Wei was still sitting in his room.

This is the separate study courtyard in the palace of Duke Dìdū Tulip. Since returning from the Knights' Guild last night, Du Wei has been sitting here all night.

In front of him, there was the spear of Longcinus!

Fingers lightly touched the body of the gun, and he could feel the cold feeling of the metal, closing his eyes, Du Wei carefully used his jīng divine power to sense, as if he could sense a faint induction fluctuation left on the gun, as if there was a trace of subtle things, pulling his jīng divine power, if you listened carefully, as if you could hear a whistling sound that was like nothing...... But very light, very light.

It's like you're holding a conch and listening to it.

It's subtle.

Unfortunately, Du Wei spent a full night and did a lot of testing on this spear, but there were no valuable results.

What frustrated Du Wei was that this legendary strongest artifact did not have the slightest legendary divine power on it, what kind of blessing of the gods, and the genus of many divine powers...... Not at all!

If it weren't for that kind of vague induction, it would be completely - no, not even a normal spear, because it was so broken, and there were countless scars on it, and I was afraid that a little bit of force would break it directly.

Du Wei had tried several methods: infused with jīng's divine powers. Or try to use the two artifacts of the Missing Moon Five Light Armor and the Jiduluo Throat Instant Hell Arrow to trigger the induction...... But. There was still no movement. The only thing that is worthwhile is. When three artifacts are placed together. Missing Moon Five Light Armor and Ji Du Luo Throat Instant Prison Arrow. Obviously, there will be some induction. The divine power attached to it was stupid and stupid—but the gun was as quiet as if it were dead.

"That's right. It's 'dead'!" Du Wei suddenly grasped the subtle feeling in his heart!

It's like you're dead!

Because of the lack of moon five light armor and Ji Du Luo throat instant prison arrow. There is a divine power of the gods on it. There is also the ability to heal itself. It's like a living thing...... And this gun. It's dead. There is no soul, no divine power.

"It's like dead. ”

Du Wei sighed, raised his head and looked at the sky outside...... It's already morning.

He stretched hard and didn't sleep all night. For magicians. There won't be much of a problem with the jīng gods, but there is still some ground in [**] exhaustion.

Du Wei stood up. One glance at the golden spear. Hesitated. Retrieved it into the storage ring.

Well. Anyway, I already have three artifacts in my hands...... Not bad, isn't it?

In fact, Du Wei couldn't help but reverie in his heart: if he was wearing the "Missing Moon Five Light Armor". Carrying the "Arrow of the Throat of Countura" and holding the "Spear of Longcinus". At the same time, he rode a golden dragon under his crotch...... That's gorgeous!

It's a pity that I can only think about it.

"Let's deal with today's events first. Du Wei sighed. Then he pushed the door and walked out of the study.

As soon as he went out. Elder Yan, who had been waiting outside the door all night, immediately strode over. Lao Yan's eyes were bloodshot. But the god jīng is not bad. He nodded to Du Wei: "My lord." Any commands?"

"Prepare the horses, I'm going to the palace. ”

Lao Yan was just about to go. Du Wei added: "Don't bring others." Just follow me! I'm going to do something important today. It's not good to have too many people. ”

&#

Before going to the Royal Palace. Du Wei deliberately took a detour to the south of the city. He's going to take a look outside the Knights' Guild. After the notice is issued, what is the effect?

As a result, things were beyond Du Wei's expectations!

He originally thought that after the announcement of "the world's first martial arts competition" was issued. Messages were sent to all parts of the continent. At least a month. Samurai from all over the continent would flock to dìdū - and after a month, the number of people who signed up would increase.

But Du Wei overlooked one point: this is dìdū!

Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger in dìdū...... Well, or maybe that's a bit of a misnomer, because although there are a lot of samurai hidden among the people in dìdū, most of those people don't have much of a "hidden dragon and crouching tiger". Because the knight jīng fell godly. The status of the warriors declined, and many warriors were just mixed in with the people. It's just a mix of food.

The news has only been announced for less than half a day. It made the whole dìdū shake at once!

In almost many places in Dìdū, you can see such a scene: the warriors in the streets and alleys who are struggling to live at the bottom of the people, when they hear the news, immediately throw away their work and run in the direction of the knights' guild - among them are chariots and horses. There are chambers of commerce and local bodyguards. There are hotel handymen and cooks. There are even some that are grooms!

Many people ran home and dug out boxes from under their beds that had been stored for years. Rusty armor and swords were found inside, and scrubbed them clean.

And in all the subway smith shops in Dìdū, business exploded several times before overnight! All the subway smith shops were almost full. Countless people who ordered long sword weapons and armor lined up. The finished weapons in the blacksmith's shop were almost swept away, and the price was doubled: a low-grade iron sword that was originally worth ten copper plates was now sold for at least two silver coins. And the price of a set of light leather armor has increased sixfold!

Du Wei had just walked less than two streets out of the house. I saw several horses galloping towards me. Leading one. It was his subordinate business director, Little Zach.

This big horse monkey-like guy saw Du Wei from afar, turned over and jumped off the horse, and didn't even care about etiquette. The first thing to say is to complain, "My lord, my boss, before you come up with such a genius idea next time." Can you say hi to me first? Up to this evening. All the weapons shops in Dìdū will be sold out! This is a once-in-a-lifetime good business opportunity! You should have let me know beforehand. I'd like to stock up on a batch of weapons. You'll be able to make a lot of money this time!...... It's a pity. I've heard about it early in the morning. The guy sent people overnight to several large warehouses outside the city of Dìdū. Several carts of inferior weapons and armor that could not be sold were dragged into the city early this morning to dump!"

Look at little Zach gritting his teeth. Du Wei just smiled. casually comforted him. Only then did he ask, "You are in such a hurry." Are you just coming to me to complain?"

"Of course not. Little Zach shook his head: "I'm not looking for you to complain. Instead, ask about it. Do you have any other plans? This is a big deal! The empire has not been lively for many years! In my opinion. It's just a pile of gold coins! If I miss this opportunity, I'll be an idiot!"

Du Wei laughed, right to this guy

Hand: "Come here, I have a few tricks." You're so ......."

After listening to two sentences, little Zack's eyes suddenly lit up, and his face smiled like a flower, and he nodded again and again. Said hello to Du Wei and galloped away with someone on horseback.

Du Wei watched these guys go away, and then sighed: "What a mistake! How did I forget to take advantage of the opportunity to dump weapons...... In the following months, warriors from all over the mainland came to Dìdū one after another. There must be at least a few thousand. ”

He rode south for a while with Lao Yan, but as soon as he reached a place where there was still a street from the Knights' Guild, he could not walk! You can't even get through a crack!

The boiling voices almost lifted the roof of the house. This can be busy with the soldiers of the police station, a few streets nearby. The Dìdū police station has temporarily tripled its staff. are not enough.

Du Wei sat on his horse. Looking into the distance, the crowd is swarming. sighed and said with a wry smile: "It seems that we don't have to go over." ”

At this moment, the Knight Guild was surrounded early in the morning. Even DeLong was taken aback when he opened the door in the morning!

Outside the Knight Association, there were a lot of people on the street, and countless warriors of all levels dressed differently, holding various weapons, lined up early outside the gate of the Knight Association.

In addition, there are a large number of citizens who come to see the excitement when they hear the news, and those who stop by and stop by those thieves and pickpockets who take advantage of the large number of people to make a fortune and so on......

Even Old Duff, standing upstairs and looking at the scene on the street, couldn't help but shudder: "Oh my God! I have lived on this street all my life, and I have never seen this place so lively." ”

Delong's forehead was covered with sweat, he originally thought the same as Du Wei: in the first few days, he was afraid that not many people would come, he originally planned to move a table and put it at the gate of the Knight Association, and register those who signed up slowly, who would have thought that such a scene would happen?

But when DeLong had just put down the table, set up the chair, and sat down to register in person, in less than half an hour, all the registration forms he had prepared had been snatched up.

Fortunately, there were soldiers in the police station to maintain order, and Delong shouted: "Anyone who violates the order will be disqualified", which made the crowd a little quieter.

Soon, Delong hurriedly asked someone to go to the Tulip family for help: at least send some more people to help! Otherwise, if he records the applicant's information by himself, Delong will not be able to keep his hands busy!

&#

At this time, Du Wei had already arrived in the palace. He saw the traffic congestion near the Knight Guild before, so he immediately gave up his plan to see Delong and went directly to the palace.

After all, there's still a big drama to play tonight.

Celebration Dinner!

&#

Directly came to the dormitory where His Majesty Emperor Augustine VI lived, Du Wei did not let Lao Yan go in with him, the palace guards at the door had already been withdrawn, and Lao Yan stood alone outside the main hall, and felt a little curious.

When Du Wei walked into the palace, he saw Groom, a tailor, sitting in a chair in front of the mirror, looking carefully at himself in the mirror, looking a little nervous.

Du Wei sighed, he could understand Grum's mood at the moment, after all, people are always nervous before the big thing. What's more, tonight is not just a big test for him...... And the result of the test is also helpless: even if he passes successfully, what awaits him is death!

Groom's face was pale, and when Du Wei silently walked behind him and pressed his hand on his shoulder, he suddenly reacted, as if startled. When he saw Du Wei's face, he calmed down a little.

Du Wei felt a little uneasy in his heart: he was too nervous, too scared. In this state of jīng god, people are very easy to collapse!

"Grum. Du Wei tried to keep his voice as calm as possible: "I think it's tonight...... Do you understand?"

"I understand. Groom bit his lip, but his eyes looked uncertain: "My lord." I...... Can I fool everybody? I mean, I look like ...... Like His Majesty the Sixth?"

"No, you're not. Du Wei's answer stunned the tailor, but soon Du Wei was heard shouting in a deep voice: "Because you are! Today, you are His Majesty the Emperor!

Du Wei casually brought a glass of water and quietly squeezed a drop of ice berry juice into it—this kind of thing not only has a psychedelic effect, but if taken in small amounts, it can act as a certain tranquilizer and analgesic. And now. Obviously, Groom needs some composure!

Taking the cup with a trembling hand, Groom drank all the water from the cup in one gulp, and he even choked a few times. Soon, though. The medicine xìng flares up, and he looks much quieter.

"I know you're scared. Du Wei whispered in his ear: "Grum, think of your wife, your daughter......! Think about them! You can imagine: You're fighting for them today! If you're done. They can live a prosperous and happy life for the rest of their lives!"

"For the sake of ...... They ......" The tailor looked blank for a moment, and finally gradually gained focus.

Looking at this guy's increasingly determined eyes, Du Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly continued to admonish: "Remember my words!" At night, you have to be calm. No need to say anything, just behave indifferently. Proud. Dismissive of anything. As for your jīng god, it's fine! That's the most appropriate! Because everybody knows that since the handover of power, His Majesty the Old Emperor has been in a very depressed mood! Grum! You are perfect! Believe me, tonight will be successful. You just have to do what I told you to do, and I promise that everything will go smoothly, very simply!"

"And what you promised me......" Grum looked up, staring at Dewey.

"I'm going to keep my promises. Du Wei replied immediately.

"Okay......"

With a long sigh, Groom lowered his head and closed his eyes as if he were closing them.

As soon as he closed his eyes, a long, long time passed, and even Du Wei forgot how much time had passed.

Finally, after a long time, Groom suddenly opened his eyes!

His eyes were full of calm, even ...... A little more than that.

At this moment, he didn't even look at Du Wei, leaned on his chair, stood up slowly, and then turned around, his face was calm, although it was still a little pale, but there was no fear!

"Grand Duke Tulip, I'm hungry. His voice was slow: "Let the servants bring in something to eat...... I don't want to wait until the party starts in the evening!"

Du Wei's eyes lit up!

At this moment, Grum seems to be possessed by the soul of the old emperor!!

And also...... Let the servants prepare my evening clothes. I'm done eating! I don't look like I'm dressed like royalty!"

"His Majesty the Emperor" said coldly.

Du Wei stared intently at the "emperor" in front of him. He looked at each other for a moment. Then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He bowed and said, "It's the ground." Your Majesty!"

Soon. The court servants brought food. The ceremonial officer and other emissaries brought the dresses of the banquet for tonight.

In the process of changing clothes, His Majesty the Emperor's face was indifferent. Expressionless. There was a hint of impatience and helplessness in his eyes.

Nothing is flawless. The court attendants who had dressed him had no idea. Still trembling and serving His Majesty to change his clothes - everyone knows. After losing power, the old emperor was moody!

A set of red sè dresses. He wore a thick collar of the finest fire fox fur around his neck, and a servant lay on the ground at his feet. He was gently wiping his boots with a white silk scarf. And behind him are four beautiful palace maids. Use your delicate little hands to help Your Majesty fasten the buttons on the ground of your clothes. Carefully smooth out each wrinkle.

At last. Du Wei looked at the "Augustine VI" in the mirror, and he smiled slightly. He turned around and took the Emperor's Land Scepter from the hands of a waiter behind him. Holding it in both hands, he handed it over: "Your scepter." Your Majesty. ”

"Thank you. Grand duke. His Majesty Augustin VI just snorted through his nose. The corner of his eye glanced coldly at Du Wei. Then hold your chin high. Turned around and walked out.

At the time of the harvest. Thank God for your blessing. This year's harvest is enough to feed the people. There is still a lot of savings.

So. Celebration of the Harvest Festival. There is also an informal saying among the people. It's called "Celebrating More Than Years". (Hey, hey.) Flirt with the cat~)

&#

His Majesty Augustin VI walked out of his bedchamber. It's late afternoon. Outside the dormitory. The regent of the Imperial Land, Prince Chen, has brought a large number of gold-armored warriors. There was also a long guard of honor. Ceremonial officer. Ladies of the court and so on and so forth.

I watched the old emperor walk out. Prince Chen looked at the front and walked in front. The one with a nonchalant face was dressed in a gorgeous costume. An old man with a scepter in his hand. His expression actually went into a trance in an instant......

Soon, though. He reacted immediately. Hurriedly walked up two steps. In full view. He stooped and bowed halfway.

The old emperor nodded at him. Then hold your head high. Be ahead of the curve. I went to the main hall in front of the palace. Prince Chen followed him one step behind. Du Wei is two steps behind. The guards and court attendants in other places. then the line followed.

Tonight. The largest main hall in the palace is *** splendid. And outside. Eight pairs of burly Hercules. Upper body. Expose well-shaped muscles. Wear trousers that symbolize the harvest of gold. Holding a sledgehammer in his hand. Every two people. He stood on both sides of the drum on one side, more than one person.

And when His Majesty Emperor Augustine VI and his entourage came to the place. Every time I walked a big drum. The two wrestlers beat their drums with all their might!

Knock! Knock! Knock!

With His Majesty, he came to the gate of the main hall. The drums slammed. The honor guards on both sides blew the horns loudly!

Majestically in the midst of the music. A court ceremonial officer dressed in full costume stood at the door of the main hall. Raise your voice and proclaim loudly:

"Everyone. Welcome to the Sovereign Lord. His Majesty the Emperor of the Roland Empire is here!!"

With this loud voice. After a buzz in the main hall. Immediately fell into absolute silence!

The hall is bright. After the jīng heart arrangement. The ceiling is inlaid with countless gemstones. Radiates a magical glow. It shines like daylight in the hall!

Groom slowly walked into the main hall. Immediately I heard the rustling of robes. And he saw both sides of the main hall. At least hundreds of male and female nobles in grand dresses stood up!

When I stepped into the main hall and took the first step. All the landers. They all bowed their heads deeply. Then he got down on one knee. No one dared to look up at themselves!

At this moment. Grumdi's heart suddenly trembled violently!

These people ...... These people!!

The nobles in their splendid robes. They have land to be generals. There are ministers and prime ministers. There are marquises. Earl...... Which of these people is not holding a stomach. A look of arrogance? a little person like himself. I am afraid that it is lying on their stomachs before them. I might not be able to give them a look!

The beautiful women, who wore the most sumptuous and seductive evening dresses. There is a bare shoulders and half a breast. They were sprinkled with fragrant perfumes - among them were duchesses. Marchioness. Countess...... There are more of those noble and wealthy daughters. These beautiful women. I'm afraid I won't even be able to see it......

But now. All these people, these men. Woman...... They all honestly knelt before their own ground, prostrate themselves at their feet...... Prostrate at the feet of yourself, a tailor's land!

Hahahaha! How funny! What an irony!!

This moment. Groom had some momentary distractions. His eyes swept across the room. I also involuntarily stopped at my feet.

At this time, behind him, Prince Dichen and Du Wei. Seeing that he actually stopped. The heart immediately rose to the throat!

But then. This "His Majesty Emperor Augustine VI" finally took a deep breath. Then came a distinctly disdainful, impatient "hum" from the nasal cavity.

Then he took a step. Keep your head held high, and take the scepter. Strode in. On top of the carpet of red sè. All the way. There was a hint of disdain and arrogance in his eyes.

Prince Chen was finally relieved. Watch this tailor behave so "perfectly". His heart was full of surprise, and he couldn't help but glance back at Du Wei. The meaning of that look is clear:

"How did you do that?"
