Chapter 436 Three Dragons Gathering (Additional update, please give me a monthly ticket)
During the Black Fire Festival, the Black Fire Land has a day off. Serfs no longer have to work hard and can freely travel anywhere.
There are young men and women holding hands and going through the grove.
There are also old serfs, smoking pipes and reminiscing about the past life in the volcanic oasis.
There are also mobile vendors, who either sell along the road in the form of horse-drawn carriages, or push carts deep into the reclamation site, or simply carry cargo boxes and run to the ridges to sell. Selling tofu, groceries, bread, and so on.
The blueprint for the reclamation of the Black Fire Land has been almost finalized.
On the triangular territory, with the location of the Cigar Castle as the center, the hot spring water flows to the northwest, southwest, and east. Half of it is natural erosion and half of it is artificial excavation. A total of three large rivers have been dug, and then many canals have been opened with the three large rivers as the main trunk.
Many manors in the future will be divided out in sequence with these three rivers as the boundaries.
The river flowing to the northwest, passing through the black oil mine, is called the Black Water River; the river flowing to the southwest, with newly reclaimed farms on both sides, is called the Chishui River; the river flowing to the east, which is expected to flow into Lei Ze in the future, is called the Xiangshui River.
Among them, the Black Water River is likely to flow into the cave and then disappear into the underground dark river.
And the Chishui River will have the opportunity to merge with the Youguang River in the future to form a larger river, and then continue to wash southward.
The land reclamation site is on both sides of the three rivers.
There is a land reclamation site every few kilometers, which will become the center of a manor in the future. Such planning is very neat compared to the Youguang River Valley.
This is a territory with flat terrain, which is convenient for planning.
Along the three rivers, many bridges have been built, connecting many charcoal slag roads, and finally merging into the asphalt main road being laid. At this time, the serfs followed the carriages and galloped on the asphalt main road.
"It's so comfortable!" said a serf, "Not bumpy at all, the asphalt road feels soft, I want to walk down!"
"It's easier to walk than the road in the volcanic oasis."
"This black oil is really a treasure, it can be used to build roads, look at this road, it's so smooth, it's so beautiful!"
"The Black Fire Land will be great in the future!" said a serf from the volcanic oasis, "I'm used to living here, it's much cooler than Windfury City, but it's hard to survive the ice age. I almost froze to death when I first came here!"
There were also serfs who sighed: "There are no mountains, it looks too flat, I've never seen a place flatter than here."
"This place is just a smaller Sancha River estuary." The serf who spoke was Yu Jiu. The serf technician supported by the Hua family said, "There are also three rivers, but they are much smaller than the river at the Sancha River Mouth. You can cross the river by wading."
"This place is not small. I heard from the knight in charge that in the future, the Valley of the Glowing River, the Blackfire Land and the Thunder Lake in the east will be connected into a whole warm land, which is very large!"
"This is absolutely true. I went to the snowfield when I went to transport goods before. Now the snowfield is gone and has become land. There are only a few places left where you can still see snow that has not melted."
"When the warm season is over, it will almost melt. Now many places in the snowfield have begun to grow grass."
"Then whose master does this territory belong to after it is merged?" A serf asked the doubts in his heart.
The serfs didn't know.
An old serf technician knocked on his pipe and said, "All the masters are the same, they all belong to the territory of the fluorescent mushroom family!"
"Yes, they are all masters of the fluorescent mushroom family."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"Praise the master!"
"Praise the fluorescent mushroom family!"
"Praise the dragon." The carriage was filled with blessings. Even if the lord was not there, they would rush to praise him, fearing that they would fall behind others and be punished by the serf stewards for being disrespectful to the lord.
In the territory, the noble lord is the sky.
The almost imperceptible asphalt main road soon ran to the end, and a castle under construction came into view.
"Get off the car!" The coachman began to shout, "Follow your stewards closely, don't walk around, each reclamation point has a fixed location. If you run around and can't find a place, be careful of being whipped by the knights, get off quickly!"
The serfs quickly got off the car and found their own serf stewards.
There was a large open space here. There seemed to be a small market not far away. The lights were shining, and the crowds were moving. They had already started singing and dancing.
Soon a knight came over, checked the badge of the serf manager, and counted the number of serfs in the car, confirming that there was no doubt. Then he shouted and led the serfs to a fixed location on the lawn, next to a bonfire.
"The serfs from your land reclamation site are all here to celebrate the bonfire party." The knight pointed to the bonfire and the white line on the periphery. "Do you see this white line? No one is allowed to go outside this white line. Whoever goes out will be whipped."
"Sir Knight, what if you need to pee urgently?" The serf manager asked bravely.
"Do you see that wooden house? That's the toilet. Do you know what a toilet is?"
"I know, I know. You have to go to the toilet for both defecation and urination. You can't poop and pee anywhere!" The serf manager quickly replied.
The composting technology has been promoted, so toilets have also begun to rise in the Grand Duchy of Shadow Flame.
Civilians rarely urinate in the wild.
"Everyone must go to the toilet to relieve themselves. If anyone is caught..." The knight read out the taboos of the bonfire party, and after making sure that the serfs were clear, he hurried away.
But he soon returned and brought back several more batches of serfs, until he took over all the serfs at a reclamation site.
Then knights arrived one after another and brought supplies for the bonfire party.
Bread, beer, vegetables, meat, the styles were very rich, and there was a lot of meat, which made the serfs greedy.
The atmosphere of the bonfire party was immediately set off to the extreme.
Drinking beer and roasting meat, singing and dancing around the bonfire, with the arrival of night, the serfs all enjoyed the rare festival.
Just then.
Suddenly a knight came galloping: "Everyone stop, the lord is here!"
The serfs beside the bonfire quickly knelt on the ground. At this time, Russell rode the unicorn Polly slowly.
He dismounted, picked up the wine glass handed by the knight, and waved with a smile: "Today is the Black Fire Festival. No one needs to kneel down to salute. Please stand up, please stand up, everyone raise the wine glass in your hand, and drink a cup with your lord, me, Russell Fluorescent Mushroom!"
Wait until the serfs hurriedly picked up the wine glass.
Russell raised the wine glass high and said loudly: "Drink to victory!"
Then he drank the beer in the glass in one gulp, turned the glass upside down, and glanced at his subjects gently.
"Praise the master!" I don't know which serf took the lead.
The serfs who drank the beer in the glass in a panic began to sing the blessing, and the voices of blessing and praise were endless.
"I received your blessings." When the voices died down, Russell said loudly, "I hope you can live happily in the Black Fire Land in the future. I, Russell, the fluorescent mushroom, will protect you and watch you!"
"Praise the master!"
"Praise the master!"
"Praise the master!"
Without staying for long, Russell rode on the unicorn Polly again with the blessings of the serfs, and went to the bonfire party at the next reclamation site with the followers.
The Black Fire Festival is a major festival in the Black Fire Land, and it is also a face-to-face communication between the lord and the people.
Russell kept raising his glass and kept receiving blessings from the people. The responsibility and honor of being a lord lingered in his heart.
When all the bonfire parties were turned around, it was almost the second half of the night.
"My lord, it's time to go back to the knights' bonfire party. Everyone is waiting for your return." Lord Charles said to Russell with a smile.
Russell was on the back of the unicorn, and he waved his hand: "Let's go back!"
Just at this moment, he suddenly heard a familiar dragon roar over the Lei Ze in the east: "Hoo!"
Russell was startled, and his drunkenness instantly sobered up.
The next moment, there was another familiar dragon roar: "Roar!"
"Ah?" Charles exclaimed, "Is this the roar of a dragon, the roar of a torrent dragon, and the roar of a shadow flame dragon!"
"Rosai!" Russell called out in his heart.
On the dragon coiling column, the dark black oil dragon Rosai flew and swooped over. Russell suddenly jumped from the back of the unicorn and rode on the back of the black oil dragon. And Polly turned into a thunderbolt and imprinted on Russell's forehead.
"Charles, notify all knights to guard the bonfire party!" Russell said in a deep voice on the dragon's back, "Keep playing music, keep dancing!"
Then he soared into the sky: "I'll be back soon!"
