The days are just like that, and the New Year is getting closer and closer in a blink of an eye. The number of pedestrians on the streets of Grand River City is also increasing day by day, and it finally has a bustling appearance.

Especially in the last few days, the whole of Big River City is preparing for a celebration. This is the biggest festival in Mobei except for the New Year. Dashuo kicked out Mobei from Kyushu for less than a hundred years, so Mobei customs are comparable to Kyushu.

This festival is called "Great River Celebration", but it is unique to Mobei.

To be precise, it should be called the "Great River Festival", in the early years of the Zhou Wu Dynasty, the expedition to Mobei, moved 10,000 households to reclaim the land. But the sudden collapse of the Zhou Wu Dynasty made these people the earliest remnants of Mobei. Every year, when the New Year is approaching, they miss their relatives and parents in their hometown, so they hold a sacrifice on the fifteenth day of the lunar month.

The New Year is the day of family reunion, but these wanderers who have left their hometown can only endure the cold of Mobei and look north.

And the fifteenth day of the lunar month every year is the most difficult time in Mobei. Many people will die of hunger and cold, and the remnants of Zhou Wu held the Great River Festival in the hope of gathering the strength of everyone to survive the New Year together. When the spring of the next year begins, there will be hope to live, and people will naturally have the courage to live when they have hope.

Later, the sacrifice became a celebration, and the remnants of Zhou Wu became prisoners of Dashuo.

But no matter how it changes, the Great River Festival is still one of the most important days in Mobei. Because no matter how it changes, the people who live here are still wanderers who have left home. The ordinary people of Mobei still need to stay warm in order to survive the cold winter.

With two days to go before the celebration, red lanterns are hung up in every house in Big River. This lantern can only be taken off when it is hung during the Lantern Festival after the year, and the meaning is also good: "prosperous and prosperous, long and long".

Not only that, wait until the day of the Great River Festival. Every household should set off firecrackers and incense candles. Pray to the heavens and the earth to bless. In addition to not eating dumplings that are eaten only during the New Year, the celebration in Mobei Beihe is almost equivalent to the New Year.

Su Xiaomei was waiting for Wei Xiaodao early, she stood at the gate of the courtyard that Cheng Yeming bought, and looked at Wei Xiaodao boxing boredly. From Wei Xiaodao to the house of the two siblings, she could see the teenager boxing every day. Every time, Su Xiaomei couldn't help but want to ask, what is the meaning of calling back and forth here.

After Wei Xiaodao closed his fist and adjusted his breathing, he looked at his little sister.

He said curiously: "Guarding me so early, it's not like your style!"

The little sister glanced at him, and said angrily: "If I don't want to pull you to hang the lantern, who likes to watch you play blindly!"

After Su Xiaomei's reminder, he remembered that it was about to be the celebration of Big River City. There are no festivals in Kwai City, and he is also a little excited and curious about the Grand River City celebration.

As for Cheng Yeming, he didn't look down on the celebration of Big River City at all. In his words, "Lao Tzu is rich, and he celebrates the New Year every day!"

Now this four-foot-seven who "hates the sky with a sword" is still hiding in the quilt and sleeping with his head covered, and he will not get up until noon.

When Wei Xiaodao arrived at Suning's brother and sister's house, Suning was gone. When I asked my little sister, I found out that Suning said, "There are many people on the street today, maybe business will be better." So he went to the market early and set up a ghostwriting stall.

Su Xiaomei took out four red lanterns and asked Wei Xiaodao to hang them at the gates of the two small courtyards. These four lanterns are the skeletons she tied herself two days ago, the red paper that Wei Xiaodao helped him paste, and finally Suning wrote 'Qi, Family, An, and Health' on the four lanterns respectively.

Hanging festive lanterns on the two courtyard gates respectively, Wei Xiaodao went to work towards Huang Linxiang again. Su Xiaomei shouted behind him: "Come back early for dinner, don't be hooked away by that fox spirit!"

Wei Xiaodao didn't answer, just waved his hand behind his back.

Looking at the pedestrians around him, and the joyful expressions on their faces, Wei Xiaodao couldn't help but think, such a good day!

It's not just the residents of Big River City who think it's a good day. There are also thousands of elite Beiting cavalry standing on the sea of snow and looking at Mobei from afar.

They lined up neatly above the sea of snow, and the snow deer exhaled hot air from its nostrils. Not to mention the warriors of the Northern Court, even the snow deer under their crotch seemed to be extremely excited.

One of the young men at the head of the group turned over and dismounted, and he took a few steps forward before stopping in front of a stone monument that was half buried in the snow. There was only one word "desert" on top of this stone tablet, and the young man knew what was written underneath even if he didn't look at the other half of the stone tablet. It is the word "north", and the two words together are "Mobei".

"Mobei, a word that humiliates our people!"

The man removed his helmet, revealing a beautiful face. Absolute beauty should be used to describe a woman, but this word is not too much for this man, and even the word 'absolutely beautiful' is not enough to describe his beauty. It's a face that makes anyone look at it and get their heart struck.

"Liu Liu, Mobei in front?"

Liuliu, yes. That's the name of the man, which may sound funny. But in fact, his surname is Liu, and his name is Liu, so he is naturally called Liuliu.

Liu Liu's father's surname is Liu, and his mother is also surnamed Liu, so he was named Liu Liu, no problem!

A man stepped forward and stood side by side with Liu Liu. He also removed the horned helmet, revealing a pair of horns. Not only him, but Liu Liu also has a pair of long horns on his head. This is a trait shared by the Yao clan, and this is true of all thousands of knights.

"I heard that they call us "demons"!"

"They'll understand, our name is Yao!"

After listening to Liu Liu's words, the man firmly said his thoughts. Yes, they are the "Yao Clan". The former owner of this northern land, that is, the 'Mobei Gaoshan Clan' in the mouth of the Zhou Wu Dynasty.

Spanning 500 years, these people who were once expelled by the Zhou Wu Dynasty have returned!

"Kwai Cheng has been nailed to our throat for nearly three hundred years, I don't know what kind of army will be waiting for us in Mobei!"

The man voiced his worries, and Liu Liu looked at him, shook his head, and said, "No matter what the cost, we will take this place back." ”

"Since Kwai Cheng is broken, the empress will not give up. The elders will not give up, and neither will the entire Yao clan. ”

"You know!" said Liuliu in a deep voice.

"yes, this place was ours. The man answered.

He agreed with Liu Liu's words, since they were driven out of Mobei by the Zhou Wu Dynasty, they had been thinking about returning here all the time. Even if they have already established a new kingdom further north.

But home is home, even if it is left for a thousand years.

"Let's go, first find out the truth and wait for the arrival of the other clansmen in the spring. ”

After that, Liu Liu put on his helmet again, and after riding a reindeer and scanning the surroundings, he shouted hoarsely, "We're back!"

Thousands of reindeer riders also shouted, "We're back!"

The sound echoed far and wide across the empty snowfield, like an end to the cry of 500 years ago.

"Goodbye, Hometown ......"

"Goodbye hometown!"
