Chapter 152: Lanlan Festival
"What race is she?" Looking at the direction in which Connie disappeared, Jia Zhengjin's heart was full of doubts.
The matter was over, and when he returned to the city, he had to pay attention to the new image of the shapeshifter, but he made his men and the villagers understand that this was just a new form of the dragon.
The next morning, as soon as I woke up, I found that Tina was nowhere to be by the bed.
After Jia Zhengjin got up, he first went to the two secondary bedrooms next to him to take a look.
Neither Perrin nor Christina were in their room, which seemed like they shouldn't have been.
After going downstairs, no one was found in the kitchen.
The entire residential building was empty, as if he were the only one left.
What's going on?
Jia Zhengjin, who was puzzled, came out of the house and found that it was not only Tina, but even the city was empty.
Hell yes!
He walked around every corner of the city, but no one could see it, whether it was a house, a town guard camp, or a farmland!
Thinking that something terrible had happened, he hurried out of the inner city gate, only to find that in a wide field of the outer city, all the people in the city were gathered, men and women, young and old, were happily collecting the leaves of a plant that Jia Zhengjin could not name.
In the crowd, Tina, Perrin, and Christina, along with Brilliant and Lantis, were also collecting carefully.
Not to mention the villagers, even the town guards are involved under the leadership of Buddy.
"What's going on?" Jia Zhengjin found the werewolf Carl who was patrolling nearby.
Carl spread his hands out, indicating that he didn't know either. After all, he and Wolf were both recruited by Jia Zhengjin from the kobold's lair, and they didn't actually belong to this world.
Jia Zhengjin had no choice but to run over and shout loudly for Tina's family, who were almost overwhelmed by the crowd.
"Lord Keane!"
"Lord Keane is here!"
"Lord Keane, Happy Blue Day!"
"Happy Blue Day, Lord Keane!"
When the villagers found Jia Zhengjin, they all greeted him happily, and at the same time, they continued to collect those strange plant leaves.
Jia Zhengjin was confused and walked quickly in the direction of Tina.
The villagers automatically moved out of the way, which made it much easier for him.
"Tina!" Jia Zhengjin called out to his wife, who was following her parents and was also collecting leaves with Perrin and Christina.
"Ahh
"Happy Lanlan Festival!" Jia Zhengjin replied subconsciously, and then reacted, "No! What the hell is Lanlan Festival?"
"Huh, Keane, why don't you even know about the Blue Festival?" Tina looked at him suspiciously, "This is a grand festival shared by all human nations!"
"I don't know what kind of blue and red festival it is!" Jia Zhengjin looked at his wife and said, "What kind of festival is this?"
"Master Keane, why don't you even know about the Blue Festival?" said Mother-in-law Rantis in a soft voice, "Didn't your parents tell you?"
"Parents......" Jia Zhengjin said in his heart that after I came to this world, I didn't even know whose body I borrowed to resurrect, let alone the parents of this body.
Seeing that he was silent, Lantis was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he never seemed to talk about his parents. Even when he married Tina, he didn't mention it. Could it be that Master Keane was an orphan, so he grew up alone and never celebrated any holidays?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but show a gentle look: "Lord Kean, let Tina explain it to you!"
"Oh!" the mother-in-law spoke, and Jia Zhengjin immediately looked at his wife.
Tina handed the leaves she had collected to her mother, reached out to hold Jia Zhengjin's hand, pulled him away from the crowd, and walked to a quieter place: "Kean, you really don't know about the Lanlan Festival, aren't you kidding me?"
"So, what exactly is the Lanlan Festival?" Jia Zhengjin was puzzled.
Seeing that her husband really didn't know, Tina pulled him to sit down on the grass, then held his hand and said, "The Lanlan Festival is a grand festival for our entire human race! Legend has it that thousands of years ago, the gate of the Demon Realm was opened. The terrifying demon king invaded the ground with countless demons, vowing to transform the entire human race into monsters! At that time, mankind was defeated in the face of the terrifying demon army, and there was really a danger of extinction! If all human beings were transformed into low-level monsters at that time, then there would be no existence for us now! At the time of destruction, when all human beings were desperate, a hero stood out......
"So this hero is called Lan Lan?" Jia Zhengjin asked.
"Oh! you listen to me!" Tina was visibly unhappy that her words were interrupted.
"Oh!" Jia Zhengjin hurriedly shut up.
"There's a hero in the human race, and his name is Randill Patston Show Chris Margaret Blue!" said Tina.
"What, what?" Jia Zhengjin didn't remember at all when he heard Tina finish reading her name without stopping.
"This hero has a long name, and his last name is longer, and no one remembers it so far!" Tina continued, "He is very valiant, he stood up to the Demon King and the Demon Legion, gathered the best warriors from all over the world, formed the Twelve Knights, and led the coalition forces to fight the Demon Legion for three years. In the end, at the cost of his own life, the hero, with the assistance of the Twelve Knights, used the ultimate magic beyond the limits of humanity, and forever drove the Demon King and his demon army back to the Demon Realm and sealed them away. Humanity survived the apocalypse and was liberated from the shadow of the horrors of the Demon King. In honor of this hero, countries have designated this day as a hero's holiday. Because his name is too long, it is simply called the Blue Blue Festival for convenience!"
"Oh~~ is a hero who led mankind to defeat the demon king, and then was remembered by the world, people set the day of his sacrifice as an anniversary, right?" Jia Zhengjin then understood, "Then what are you collecting these leaves for?"
"In the three-year bitter battle with the demons, because the military rations were consumed, even the war horses were eaten cleanly in the end. At a time when hunger was high and morale was at its lowest, Rantier Patston showed Chris Margarrie who was very anxious when he saw that the human army could not hold on. At that time, the place where their military camp was stationed happened to be a huge jungle of gold and silver trees. On a whim, the hero had the whole army collect the leaves of the gold and silver trees, grind them into juice, and then make them into cakes. Relying on this kind of gold and silver cake, the human army was able to hold out and finally achieve victory!"
"Can this kind of leaf make cakes? is it really fake?" Jia Zhengjin's eyes were full of doubts.
