Early the next morning, the Vastaya cat boy Ogman arrived at the treehouse hotel on time and found the Lester family who were having breakfast.
Although he was a little worried about the recent troubles at home, O'Gorman still kept himself facing the sunshine in front of his guests.
"Mr. Lister, how long do you plan to stay in Playa Village? According to your itinerary, I can introduce you to the good places in Playa Village. I believe you will not be disappointed, except for [La Playa Flower Bed]
】In addition, there are many things worth experiencing in Praia.”
Slowly putting down the cutting knife, Lester placed the cut fruit plate in front of Lulu and helped Lulu wipe her saliva, making the little guy look a little more respectable.
The purple-skinned Garlic is adorable, but he is a bit naughty and greedy. Especially after following him, he seems to have found a big supporter and is very dependent on him, and he actually feels like a father.
Although it was a bit troublesome, Lester found the illusion of getting along with Elena in his previous life, and he didn't hate it.
After taking care of Lulu, Lester responded with a smile.
"I'm afraid we won't be able to stay for a few days. We will go to Presidence soon."
The man did not directly say that his goal was the [Palace of Eternal Existence], so as not to violate any Ionian taboo.
With an expression that showed that this was indeed the case, O'Gorman sighed, his tone a little low.
"Well, I guess you want to participate in the Soul Blooming Festival that will be held in Presidio in a month's time."
Sensing something inappropriate in the cat boy's tone, Lester raised his eyebrows, placed a silver coin on the table, and pushed it towards the vastaya.
"What happened? If you can, please tell me in detail."
O'Gorman sighed again and did not take the silver coin. Instead, O'Gorman looked worried.
"Do you know the origin of the Soul Blooming Festival?"
"I don't know much about it, but this is also the first time I have set foot on the Land of the Newborn. This time I went to Presidence precisely because I wanted to experience the customs and customs of Ionia and gain an unforgettable memory."
There were a lot of foreigners who came here because of this. Not surprisingly, the answer made O'Gorman nod his head and finally accepted the silver coin.
Now, he can accept this silver coin with peace of mind, because he is going to say some things that ordinary Ionians don't know.
"Mr. Lister, if you are willing to waste time and listen to the story my grandma told me, I can tell you about the Soul Blooming Festival."
"Extremely happy."
After receiving the man's approval, O'Gorman organized his words and whispered.
"This is a story my grandma told me since I was a child. The Soul Blooming Festival is a very ancient festival in Ionia. It is so old that even the most knowledgeable masters will forget that in the era when the Soul Blooming Flower first bloomed,
How long ago is it? Everyone just understands that in the Newborn Land, every spiritual tree growing on the earth may have originated from thousands of years ago. At that time, there were giants descending from the sky and wreaking havoc on the spiritual and spiritual power of the Newborn Land.
The material world is destroying the balance of nature. Through resonance and fusion with the spiritual realm, some human beings have gained unprecedented power, defeated the giants, and restored harmony to the newborn land."
Pointing to his beating gray cat ears, he boasted about his powerful ancestors. The young man was a little embarrassed, but his proud chest was high, and he was obviously very proud of this matter.
Lester knew that the cat boy was talking about the [Giant War] that took place in ancient Ionia.
"Those strong men with the characteristics of beasts were called [Immortal Vastayashari] by later generations, which is my ancestor and the origin of the vastaya people. My grandma said that the vastaya people are Vastayashari
and the descendants of mankind,
At first, many overwhelmed humans inadvertently received the help of Vastaya Xari in order to escape the disaster of giants. They established a blood connection with Vastaya Xari and became a family, and various kinds of children were born.
Vastaya influenced by the spiritual realm."
Listening to the novel story, even Lulu stayed on the stool with a small piece of fruit stuck to the corner of her mouth. It was Lester who helped Lulu click off the fruit, so that the yordle lost a red piece.
Fruit nevus.
Even Pixar listened very carefully. Even though he had a certain understanding of this long history, he also wanted to hear the opinions of humans in the material world from others.
"And my grandma said that the birth of the Spirit Blossom Tree is related to the dead giants.
Those giants could easily use magic to shuttle between the material and spiritual realms when they were alive. After death, their corpses turned into sky-reaching spirit trees. The spirit blossoms served as a new bridge between the two worlds, allowing those wandering in the spiritual realm to
The deceased can come to the material world from the spiritual realm through the Spirit Blossom Tree in the few days when the Spirit Blossom Flower blooms, and see their relatives who are still in the material world through the fragrance of specific flower stamens. People in the material world can also use the Spirit Blossom Flower to see their relatives in the material world.
Flowers come to contact the deceased, express one's grief, soothe the sorrow, and bid farewell to the past.
Grandma said that this is also the most important meaning of the Soul Blooming Festival. The Soul Blooming Flower can allow the dead to take away the regrets left by the living. There are always many regrets in this world, and we often cannot go back to the past and make changes. We can only bring them with us.
Dying with regrets, the Blooming Soul Festival changes this, giving us hope of relief, giving us the possibility to say goodbye to our loved ones and send blessings to our departed relatives."
Although he was a little shocked, Lester's face remained calm and he ordered a glass of apple juice for the cat-eared boy.
After thanking him, he picked up the apple juice with his furry cat paws and took two small sips. O'Gorman continued.
"My grandma said that there is a unique golden spirit tree that was born from the original giant and is located in the spiritual world. It is different from the peach blossom spirit tree in the material world.
In the spiritual realm, as long as the dead soul can pass the test of the golden blooming spirit tree, people can even be resurrected from the dead. Unfortunately, this has always been a legend. Even grandma was skeptical when she told this story... About the golden color
Sir, just listen to the matter of the blooming spirit tree as a story.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In short, the Spirit Blooming Festival is the most important festival in each province of Ionia. Preparations should start when spring comes every year. Under the leadership of the master
Next, observe the movement of the Spirit Blossom Tree at any time, and calculate the day when the Spirit Blossom Tree will bloom.
When does it bloom? When is the Spirit Blooming Festival? The date of the Spirit Blooming Festival is not fixed. The specific date is determined by the Spirit Blooming Trees in various places. On the day when the Spirit Blooming Trees in various places bloom at the same time, we will take the
Missing relatives who have passed away come to the tree to look for the flower that belongs to their family members.
The blooming of flowers largely indicates that relatives have passed away peacefully without regrets. Even if they have not left yet, they can still meet with relatives who are still alive.
The combination of flowers means that relatives are still wandering in the spiritual realm, looking for their own salvation, waiting for the day to meet relatives in the material realm and erase regrets..."
"Looking at your expression, it seems there is a third outcome that is not too good."
Nodding silently, the cat boy put down the round wooden cup, his face a little pale.
"The third result is that the flowers die, the vitality disappears, and they turn into dead flowers. This indicates that the deceased relatives have suffered a huge disaster in the spiritual realm, and this disaster will also affect other people in the material realm..."
"A huge disaster?"
"This is what I want to tell you, Mr. Lister."
O'Gorman took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"The flower failure of Ionia's Spirit Blooming Festival occurred five years ago. At that time, the Spirit Blooming Tree in Placidia suffered from a terrible scene of large-scale flower failure. Through the decline of the Spirit Blooming Flower, there were many
Terrible spirits and crazy ghosts came from the spiritual realm to the physical realm, possessing and killing many innocent villagers. Many people lost their lives in that terrible disaster, and the pain has not been completely eliminated to this day.
Although this disaster was finally quelled by a group of powerful practitioners, there are still many terrible spirits and ghosts that have escaped the pursuit of the practitioners and wandered around Presiden every night. Normally, the spirits and ghosts are fine.
They are not too powerful, and they dare not appear in front of the public, but every night when the spiritual flowers bloom, the spirits and ghosts will turn into terrible monsters, choosing people to eat.
Therefore, the Soul Blooming Festival in recent years has been very dangerous. If it were not for a group of practitioners claiming to be the "Keepers of Balance" who spontaneously organized under the call of Karma to maintain the order and stability of the Soul Blooming Festival, I am afraid that under the Soul Blooming Tree,
There were not many people in sight, and everyone was very afraid of the ghosts that could possess the human body and drive people crazy."
O'Gorman shivered, thinking of his mother's order to attend the Soul Blooming Festival, and O'Gorman couldn't help but look a little pale.
"Mr. Lister, I advise you not to go, in order to avoid any danger."
After pondering for a while, Lester did not respond to the young man's consolation. Instead, he reached out and touched O'Gorman's silky gray hair, and along the way, he lifted the cat's ear.
If Helena's information is correct, this is a sensitive point for cat people.
"Don't be afraid, those things are actually not that scary."
"Meow~Mr. Lister! How can you touch someone's ears casually? Meow!"
He accidentally made a very shameful sound, and the young man slapped Lester's hand away in shame and anger, and stood up suddenly.
"Sorry, I just thought of my sister. She is as old as you. This is how I comforted her when she was scared. I apologize to you and please forgive me for being rude."
Hearing what the disappointed Lester said, O'Gorman also relaxed a lot, and somewhat understood Lester's emotions, but even he felt a little shy when a stranger touched such a sensitive part.
Looking carefully, Ogman discovered that the appearance of the man in front of him was outstanding even among the Vastaya vixen. Coupled with his sincere tone and disappointed mood, and the one that was enough to withstand the attack.
For the ten-day guide's silver coins, the cat-man boy felt a little more self-blame and dissatisfied with himself for having just exploded.
What's more, he just inadvertently thought of herself as his sister to comfort his fearful self.
Why should such a good person be blamed by himself?
"No...it's nothing. I, I don't actually hate it. It's just that it was a little too sudden. It's me who should apologize. I'm sorry, Mr. Lister. I overreacted."
After hesitating for a moment, O'Gorman took the man's hand with his cat's paw and gently placed it on his head. He blushed awkwardly and turned his head away.
"This is compensation... Yes, by the way, didn't your sister come to Navoli with you?"
Gently stroking the boy's pure cat ears, Lester's 'sad' mood seemed to have been resolved to a certain extent.
"No, she has her own things to do. When she grows up, everyone will make their own choices. It is difficult for her father, brother, and elders to have any influence."
"Meow meow~ meow meow~"
When the boy gasped, Lester decisively stopped what he was doing. His addiction to playing with cats had been satisfied to a certain extent. He didn't want to continue playing with the innocent cat boy. Appropriate teasing was considered harmless.
It's a little fun, but deliberately playing with emotions seems a bit dirty, and he doesn't like it.
Enough is a principle of life that everyone should understand. Unfortunately, most people understand it, but find it difficult to do so because their desires are hard to satisfy.
"If I guess correctly, Ogman, you should be going to Presidence to participate in the Soul Blooming Festival, right?"
Unable to regain his composure after taking several deep breaths, Ogman nodded dizzily, forgetting that he was going to the closer [Weili].
"When the time comes, let's be together. If anything happens, we can take care of you."
In this way, with a confused expression, the cat boy inexplicably agreed to Mr. List's invitation to form a team.
…
When Lester and his party set out on the journey again after obtaining a durable guide, it was already a week later. Counting the time spent on the road, it was just two months to reach Presidence from [Playa Village].
, arrive at the destination before the flower blooming time predicted by the master.
It would be much closer to cross the Leatherman Mountains from [Playa Village] and go to Weili at the southern foot of the mountains to participate in the Soul Blooming Festival, but O'Gorman has already promised Lester to go to Presi
When Dian participated in the Soul Blooming Festival, he had to give up his original plan and embark on a more dangerous and long road.
"Actually, you don't need to come. It's better to go to Weili."
Later, I learned that there is also a spirit tree in Weili, and Lester also persuaded the cat-man boy to change his route to Weili. However, the soft-eared boy was extremely determined and insisted on becoming Lester's guide in Navoli Province.
"Mr. Lister, since I have promised you, I will not break my promise. My grandma has taught me since I was a child that I must keep my promise. As a man, I must keep my promise."
On the hired carriage, the serious look on Ogman's face, holding the Cat Fist, won the cheers and admiration of Lulu and Pixar. Everyone was excited about the beautiful qualities of the Vastaya cat boy. It didn't take long.
Over time, the three little guys got along well and became good friends.
Lester, who was supporting Jana Jade Bird, did not participate. The man looked calmly at the bumpy window and slowly narrowed his eyes. For a long time, the man's lips raised a frightening smile, which actually made Jade Bird a little uncomfortable.
too adaptable,
When the devout believer suddenly exuded terrible murderous aura, Qingniao couldn't help but move his buttocks, put the bird's fart close to the man's scalp and hair, and adjusted his sitting posture, as if moving would make him more comfortable.
In the sky, Shia Silver Moon followed the carriage and flew slowly above the clouds, staring indifferently at the distance of a thousand meters behind the carriage.
In a place where the carriage driver could not see, ten fast horses carried an indifferent man in black cloak, who was standing far behind the carriage, with a cruel smile, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike.
