Chapter 149: Having memories is a good thing, isn't it?
The road afterwards seemed a little calm, not much happened, and the passing by was ordinary scenery. This is probably the common point of all journeys. Ordinary life always occupies most of the time.
Chatting by the bonfire, nap on the road, the wheels of the carriage creaked, and the people on the carriage occasionally joked and watched the birds flying into the distance in the sky.
This feeling is not as exciting as the fantasy adventure, without dragons, princesses, and warriors. There are only an ordinary businessman and an ordinary mercenary team, but this feeling is real, within reach, and easier to accept and get used to.
Mann got along well with the four people from the Silver Sword Squad. Lily taught him some basic magical knowledge, Jill taught him some skills to defend himself. The dwarf John secretly drank some wine for him, but Mann quickly vomited it. It was obvious that the drinks that adults drank were not as good as he thought.
Regarding Lorna, Chu tried several more times, but none of them succeeded. She was indeed not good at dealing with such things.
They passed by many towns and villages, and Jill would tell everyone the stories of these places, and in its own words, it should have traveled to the mainland.
On the fortieth day of the journey, they came to a new town, Delport.
When they arrived here, the people here were holding celebrations, what to celebrate, the arrival of spring.
At this time, Chucai suddenly realized that the deep winter had gradually passed, and she could not feel the temperature, so it was difficult for her to feel the change of the four seasons.
Delport is only about ten days away from Jeffries. After discussing, several people prepared to stay here for one night.
It was mainly Mann's idea. He wanted to attend this celebration. How could he say that in his memory, he had never participated in any celebration except for a very early one.
In the past, the city where he grew up in Lanther City also held celebrations, or held many times, but at that time he had no part in it, and was just busy picking up edible garbage on the street corners.
Mann seemed a little excited that night. He was looking forward to too many things because they were difficult for him to touch. Even for ordinary people, those things were nothing but something they were used to.
At dawn, she first heard the sound of an organ. She walked to the balcony of the hotel and found Mann standing on the balcony, playing his silver-white harmonica.
The morning wind blew the balcony curtains slightly, and Chu stood behind Mann for a while, waiting until he finished blowing and stopped to rest.
"I can't sleep a little." Mann lay on the handrail and grabbed his hair with a silly smile.
"Am I a little too fussy? It's just a small celebration."
"It's okay." Chu shrugged his shoulders and walked to Mann, leaning against the armrest and asked, "Have you not attended the celebration?"
“Once once.” Mann held his chin and looked at the street outside the hotel: “My father took me to attend once when I was very young.”
As he said this, he smiled slightly without even notice.
“It was a great time.”
That's why he wanted to participate in this celebration, because the word "celebration" left him with beautiful memories.
He sat on his father's shoulder, holding fireworks, eating candies, listening to the bards singing, walking from the street to the end of the alley on the crowded streets.
Mann recalled the scene at that time in a daze, but unfortunately his memory was already blurred.
At this time, one hand was placed on his head and rubbed his chestnut hair into a mess.
Chu put Mann's head on and said lightly.
"Then, let's have fun this time."
Mann turned around and looked at Chu, curled up his lips and smiled, and did not slap Chu's palm on his head.
"Oh, of course I know this."
On the day of the celebration, the streets were decorated very grandly.
Only celebrations will appear in the shops open on the roadside, bards are playing cheerful music with xylophones, while people on the road are infected by these music and integrated into a joyful atmosphere.
The celebration began in the evening, with a lot of people on the streets, which seemed a little crowded.
For old adventurers like Jill, the Lizardman or John, these are already tired of seeing things. Even for Lily and Lorna, who have not been taking risks for a long time, these are no longer surprising.
But for Mann, these are so novel and so in line with his memories.
The team quickly dispersed and divided into two teams. John and Jill took Mann to the streets west, while Lilylona and Chu were on the street east.
Mann tried the candies for celebration, just like in his memory, it was a bit too sweet, but he still ate them all, after all, it can't be wasted, right?
There are always some small games at the celebration, and the prices are very cheap. You can participate in one or two copper coins. Mann almost finished it from beginning to end.
Jill and John followed him all the time, with some helpless smiles on their faces. This time they were here to play with Mann.
After spending more than a month together, they really like this boy named Mann. He has maturity that ordinary children do not have, but also some purity that adults do not have.
Especially the Lizardman Jill, this seemingly indifferent thief is the closest thing to Mann in the Silver Sword team.
Lizard people like to get close to children, just like most wild animals. However, people on the mainland rarely know this.
There were more and more people, and people gathered together to watch a celebration show on stage. With Mann's figure, he couldn't see it inside, and he stood on tiptoe and tried his best to see some.
Suddenly, he felt his body be raised, and it was Jill standing behind him and lifting him onto his shoulders.
Sitting on the shoulders of a lizard man nearly two meters high, Mann could almost see the entire street.
"Thank you." Mann smiled and lowered his head to Jill.
"It's okay." Jill blinked its erect eyes: "Tell me wherever you want to go."
"Hey." Dwarf John patted Jill's calves with some envy: "Let me sit on it too."
He has never experienced a perspective of more than 1.5 meters.
"No." Jill glanced at John, and replied coldly without thinking, taking Mann away.
"I said, you are racial discrimination!"
······
On the other hand, Lily, Lorna and Chu were shopping on the streets together, and they had a lot of fun. After all, people liked the fun, and Lily and Lorna were the same.
But halfway through, Lily suddenly said that she had forgotten to take something and wanted to go back to the hotel. After that, she hurriedly ran away, leaving only Lorna and Chu standing together.
In fact, I didn't quite understand what was important, but Lily's departure was convenient for her to do what she did later.
She had made plans and must explain the matter between them to Lorna today.
"Chu, are you going to see the fireworks?" Lorna blushed, pulled Chu's sleeves, and pointed to the direction the crowd was rushing.
Fireworks?
At first, I didn't mind, so I nodded and agreed.
The two walked towards the center of the street with the crowd, which would be the best place to watch fireworks.
"Bang!" As a sound came, a firework dragged the fire to fly into the night sky, and then bloomed in a loud sound.
The red flames lit up the night sky and shone the streets in a crimson color.
The streets and crowds in the celebration seemed to be integrated into this moving picture at this moment.
Lorna was stunningly watching, with a smile on her face, looking up at the fireworks under the night sky, she pursed her lips, slowly raised her palm, and held Chu's hand beside her.
Fire, voice, noisy, joy.
Chu felt these with evil and said to Lorna.
"Lorna, I'll tell you."
Lorna turned her head.
First he said what she wanted to say.
But when she spoke, a firework bloomed in the sky.
"Bang!"
Amid the sound of fireworks, her voice seemed to be drowned.
···
"Hey?" After the fireworks, Lorna blinked her eyes and asked with a smile on her face: "Chu, what did you say?"
When she first looked at Lorna, she was stunned for a moment. She opened her mouth, and finally sighed helplessly and smiled bitterly.
"nothing."
At least tonight, I'll have fun spending this celebration together, she thought so.
But what she herself didn't know was that she used evil to make a sound, and evil voices would not be obscured by any sound.
Lorna held Chu Binglong's hand and looked at the fireworks in the night sky again, making herself smile hard.
She knew what she said first, but only tonight, she would pretend not to hear it.
Tonight is enough.
