Chapter 344: The Lively Wind Flower Festival
Wind Flower Festival.
A festival of freedom and love in the Mondstadt tradition.
On this day, flowers are given to those who love or respect, and the legendary flower of the wind is offered to Lord Barbatos, the god of the wind.
However, the Wind Flower is not a fixed flower, and everyone has their own different opinions about the Wind Flower.
Some people love dandelion flowers, some people love windmill chrysanthemums, and some people love Cecilia flowers.
And the most important thing at the Wind Flower Festival is naturally the link of offering flowers to the wind god.
Those who are eligible to offer flowers must also be the ones who have made great contributions to Mondstadt or who have performed the most during the Wind Flower Festival, and will also leave a sentence in the history of Mondstadt: "On a certain day, a certain month, such and such a person will present the Wind Flower to the Wind God at the Wind Flower Festival".
This is almost the highest honor in Mondstadt.
Therefore, when Lin Feng and Eula said goodbye to Clips and walked into Mondstadt, the bustle and noise in the city made them feel like they were in a different world.
Red roses, purple roses, dandelions, windmill chrysanthemums, Cecilia flowers, you can find all the flowers you can find in the streets of Mondstadt.
People are either in pairs or in groups.
Some are holding flowers and debating loudly about what flowers the wind god likes, and some are enthusiastically participating in various activities of the wind flower festival.
The Knights of Favonius have already been dispatched.
In such a lively festival, security is the most important thing.
After all, Mondstadt's reputation as an alcoholic is no joke.
In the past years, even if the Knights of Favonius strictly guarded it, there would still be drunken drunkards making trouble in the streets, and if one was not careful, there would be a lot of riots.
And the Knights of Favonius could not have banned the people of Mondstadt from drinking on such a grand festival.
Therefore, it is necessary to increase the number of people to maintain order.
It's been a long way.
Lin Feng and Eula had already seen a lot of familiar faces.
Diluc, Kaeya, members of the travelogue team who used to be with Eula, Lin Feng also saw Lisa, the librarian in a purple witch costume, and Noelle, the maid knight of the reserves, on the street corner.
In secret, there are also people led by Rosalia who set up secret sentries everywhere to prevent foreigners or monsters from causing trouble.
As for the threat outside Mondstadt.
In order to ensure the safety of the Windflower Festival, every year before the Windflower Festival, the Grand Master leads the Knights of Favonius to slaughter the monsters around Mondstadt, lest the blinding monsters come to cause trouble when everyone is relaxing for a few days.
As part of a former guerrilla squad.
Eula also participated in the slaughter of monsters.
Therefore, when she really began to feel the excitement of the Wind Flower Festival, she couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This is the festival." ”
"yes, that's the festival."
Lin Feng and Eula were in a similar mood.
is different from the new festival Heroes' Day that Lin Feng helped plan.
The Wind Flower Festival is an old traditional festival.
The history of Mondstadt is extremely long.
It originated in the 2,600-year period when the Daedric War was put down and Mondstadt was first founded.
At that time, the Wind Flower Festival was a commemoration of the Wind Flower that connected with each other and resisted the people of the old Mondstadt era.
Peace lasts forever.
The Festival has evolved from commemorating the liberation of Mondstadt to being a festival dedicated to romance.
It's a bit like that Valentine's Day in Lin Feng's hometown.
It's just that such a lively festival has always been insulated from Lin Feng and Eula.
At that time, Lin Feng was a night walker in Mondstadt, and he could not reveal his name or wander around, whether it was the lively Fenghua Festival or the more lively badminton festival, he could only sit on the spire of the Zephyr Church and watch the joyous crowd below.
Eula's situation is also basically the same.
But the difference is that Eula is because of Lawrence's name, and she will be abused wherever she goes, let alone the holidays, even if she walks on the road, people will avoid her, the vendors will not sell her things, and the tourists will speak ill of her until she is lonely and leaves.
Until today.
Eula was finally able to walk the streets of Mondstadt in the light and celebrate the festival with the people of Mondstadt.
"Hey, look."
Just when both of them were sighing, Lin Feng saw an acquaintance at a glance.
Following the direction he pointed, Eula looked over.
Lesger Lawrence.
The young man they had met the last time they had returned to the Lawrence family.
At this time, he was helping out in an archery event hosted by the Knights of Favonius, and judging by his appearance, he was supposed to be responsible for recovering the arrows that were shot to prevent other civilians from being accidentally injured.
In addition to him, Lin Feng and Eula also saw no less than ten members of the Lawrence family working in other places.
Looking at the people who were in harmony with the people of Mondstadt, Eula couldn't help but feel gratified.
I finally don't have to worry about the Lawrence family anymore.
"Very good sign."
Lin Feng also nodded with satisfaction.
However, he and Eula did not disturb Lesger's work and continued to walk down the street.
As one of the biggest festivals in Mondstadt.
In addition to the crowded streets and alleys and all kinds of dazzling selling goods.
There are three more important parts of the Wind Flower Festival.
One is the bow and arrow competition.
It's also a tradition that almost every festival in Mondstadt has.
It commemorates the history of exploration and hunting in the early days of Mondstadt.
This activity is also an important part of the selection of Fenghua stars, so there are many people in line and who are competing.
Lin Feng and Eula didn't come early, let alone go to the competition, the audience was already crowded.
People cheer on their favorite people or friends.
This kind of environment also makes the place very noisy, so far away, not only can you not see anything in the stands, but you can't even hear the sound clearly, and you can only determine through the cheers of the people whether someone has completed all the challenges, or if they have performed extremely well.
Cross this playing field.
The next venue is a more intense flying challenge.
To participate in this challenge, you must be able to obtain a pilot's license.
Of course.
During such a grand celebration, such a trivial matter as whether or not there is a pilot license is basically turned a blind eye, and everyone is happy, anyway, the Knights of Favonius have strict protection measures and will not put people's lives in danger.
Among them, the most conspicuous is naturally Amber, the flying champion of Mondstadt City and Eula's best friend.
When Lin Feng and Eula came to this venue, it was just when Amber appeared with her own windproof eyes.
"Hey, she's a scout knight, and she can skip work to participate in this kind of event."
Lin Feng covered the sun with his hands, and looked at Amber who was standing on the roof of the Knights of Favonius doing warm-up activities and joked.
"It's because she's a scout knight that she can come to participate in this kind of event."
Eula sighed.
Lin Feng sighed lightly, and immediately reacted.
Amber's grandfather, the old Scout Knight, who had been stripped naked by himself, had left Mondstadt, leaving his granddaughter alone and left her granddaughter alone.
It is precisely because of his departure.
Despite Amber's extra grace as a Knight of Scouting.
But her strength and experience are far inferior to her grandfather's, and it is really difficult for her to maintain the entire reconnaissance team alone.
Tedstadt's elite squad had fallen apart as a result, and if it hadn't been for Amber's arguments, the formation would have been almost broken up.
That's why she was able to come to the flying competition today.
Because they really don't need people from their scout team.
Soon.
The game is about to begin.
Under the watchful gaze of everyone, Amber slowly took off her coat and leaked out the red flight suit inside.
“.”
Not only Lin Feng, but when they saw the words on Amber's clothes, everyone had a stunned expression.
[The Knights of Favonius reconnaissance team recruits new recruits, you will come if you have a dream!] 】
"Is it fashionable to recruit new people like this these days?"
The corners of Lin Feng's mouth twitched slightly, and he complained silently.
Scout teams aren't so easy to recruit newcomers.
Although Lin Feng had never joined, he also knew that the members of the reconnaissance team had the most basic martial arts requirements, and also required each member to master the necessary tricks such as survival in the wild, absconding, etc.
This is also the reason why the reconnaissance team has been recruiting new people, but it has never been able to recruit new people.
However, to Lin Feng's surprise.
Perhaps it was the blessing of the beautiful girl, and the onlookers were particularly excited when they saw this slogan, whistling and cheering.
Such enthusiasm also made Amber on the field more and more excited, and as the referee gave the order, he took the lead in driving the wings of the wind to fall from the sky.
The Wind Wings assessment is more than just a test of flight dexterity.
This includes shooting targets from the air, picking up balloons, crossing various obstacles that suddenly rise and fall, and more.
Amber worked extremely hard to do every move, and won the first place in this competition as quickly as possible, which attracted thunderous cheers throughout the race.
The words 'reconnaissance team' also kept echoing around in the mouths of onlookers, and they fiercely played a wave of advertisements for Amber.
"Amber, well done!"
Seeing Amber win the first place, Eula couldn't help but scream excitedly, constantly waving her hands to cheer her on.
It seems to be telepathic.
Amber, who was in the middle of the noisy field, suddenly looked back and looked around, until she saw Eula waving in the crowd, and she happily waved in response.
Soon.
Amber, who was the symbol of the first place in the competition, ran over, and as soon as he saw Eula, he jumped over with an arrow step, hugged Eula's neck and shouted, "Eula, I miss you to death." ”
"I miss you too, Amber."
The two close friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time hugged for a while before letting go, and then directly ignored the 'light bulb' Lin Feng on the side, and chatted with themselves.
"Ugh"
Lin Feng, who was left out in the cold, pursed the corners of his mouth, and said sourly: "It's too much for a woman who forgets me when she has friends." ”
"Hmph, let's play."
Eula snorted lightly, shook her hand at Lin Feng, and casually held hands with Amber, running to this stall to buy some food, and then to that stall to buy some beautiful accessories.
In short, he directly stocked Lin Feng and completely left him aside.
However, Lin Feng would not be angry with Amber because of this trivial matter.
Eula had said that she had known Amber much longer than she had known Lin Feng.
Even when Eula was studying under Amber's grandfather, they both slept under the same bed at night.
A close friend is not enough to describe the intimacy between them.
In desperation, Lin Feng, who had fallen out of favor, could only silently follow behind them, acting as a mobile wallet.
I walked around for a while.
Unconsciously, they came to the most enthusiastic and competitive arena of the Wind Flower Festival.
Poetry Contest.
A celebration of freedom and love, a grand celebration and revelry! Across the verdant greenery of Mondstadt, walk among the festive crowds, and traverse the poetry and flowers, the Wind Flower Festival.
This is the slogan of the Wind Flower Festival.
Among them, the parade of poems and texts was manifested in this most intense and lively poetry contest.
Can you become a star of wind flowers?
The winner of this race is also particularly important.
For the sake of justice.
The winning contest was voted for, and Barbara, an idol of Mondstadt, was banned.
Of course, it was announced that Barbara was sick, so she couldn't participate, otherwise, her crazy fans would definitely rush the Knights of Favonius as the organizer.
"Eh——!"
"Huh! Hey! Hey! How did she get here? ”
As soon as they arrived at the competition venue, Lin Feng and Eula saw a figure that would theoretically never appear here.
Rosalyn Cruzhika Lohephart.
The eighth executive of the Fatui.
A man who openly disrespects the god of wind.
But at this time, she was wearing a 500-year-old style, with light makeup on her face, standing in the queue of contestants, her expression quiet and elegant.
"You know her?"
Following their line of sight, Amber also saw Rosalyn.
It's just that Amber didn't recognize that the quiet girl in front of her was the arrogant and domineering Fatui executive officer before.
It's not the same person at all.
Therefore, when Lin Feng revealed her identity, Amber was so shocked that her jaw almost fell to the ground.
"I can't think of it, I can't imagine it, she actually wants to sing for the wind god."
Lin Feng smiled, and his originally scarce interest suddenly rose again.
Eula also stared at the field with the same curious expression, but Amber had a little more guard on her face, she was afraid that Rosalyn was here to sabotage the Wind Flower Festival, and if this was the case, even if she was defeated, she would have to stop her behavior.
However, with the start of the game.
Amber found that her thoughts were completely superfluous.
When it was Rosaline's turn, she performed an ancient ritual to the crowd around her, and then chanted softly with a harp in her hand.
Her voice wasn't too loud, but everyone could hear what she was singing.
This is a song that Wendy once sang, based on the love story of Rosalyn and Rustan.
After the song was sung, the audience was silent.
After a while, there was thunderous applause, and the audience did not hesitate to applaud, and remembered the love story of the girl and the knight in their hearts.
