"Is this the wizard? He is so young and handsome..."
"Like a prince, no, he is more handsome than a prince, oh! I feel like I'm about to faint. Who mixed the wine in this night?"
"Miss Nicole is so beautiful, is that an angel..."
"That lucky maid makes people jealous of her good luck..."
Nicole's foundation is not bad. In the past, she was just too young and had malnutrition, which made her look sallow and thin, and she didn't have much beauty. After this period of recuperation and age, her youthful beauty gradually emerged.
She has an oval face, big eyes, fat skin, long eyebrows, naturally wavy golden hair... plus the pure white dress that Hester specially selected for her today, she is pure and kind with a little kindness, and her whole person is extraordinarily charming.
Temperament.
She stood next to Heath, making the two of them particularly eye-catching in the crowd. As soon as they came out, they immediately attracted a lot of attention from the people around them.
"Hahaha!"
At this moment, a hearty laugh came.
The crowd naturally moved to both sides to make way, and Campbell led the nobles under his command and walked straight towards Heath.
He smiled at Heath and said, "It seems like you are more popular here than me."
The plague incident unexpectedly resolved the conflict between Campbell and Heath, and the relationship eased. After getting along with each other for several months, they unexpectedly discovered that their personalities are quite compatible. Otherwise, such a joke that is easy to guess would be obvious.
This is not what a lord should say.
Heath nodded: "Yes, no matter where you put it, young and handsome guys are more popular than middle-aged and old men."
Not to be outdone, Campbell said: "It's like this before going to bed."
"Ha ha!"
"Oh! Oh! Little virgins never know what women really want, haha!"
There was a burst of laughter in the crowd, the men whistled, and the women blushed and gritted their teeth, but their eyes glanced at Heath and Campbell from time to time, always expecting something to happen.
Look.
Heath shrugged and did not answer the question. Otherwise, according to the baron's competitive character, this bickering would probably go on endlessly.
A comfortable smile appeared on Campbell's face, and he said: "Let's go, the banquet is about to begin."
All the way to the bonfire, dozens of tables were set up here to form a simple dining area. After Campbell and Heath took their seats, they were followed by the nobles, and then the knights of the nobles. Dozens of tables were quickly occupied.
A full meal.
The remaining servants and a large number of people sat around the campfire, on tree stumps, wine barrels, wherever they could, or simply on the grass.
After everything was ready, following Campbell's signal, the soldiers lit the large bonfire in the middle. With a muffled sound, the firewood mixed with pine oil immediately started to burn, and the strong flame was instantly lit.
This night sky.
People's emotions reached their highest point at this moment. Under everyone's attention, several girls wearing flower garlands and dancing skirts walked barefoot in front of the bonfire. These were the girls leading the dance.
Singing and dancing is a traditional program at bonfire dinners. Whenever the bonfire is lit, accompanied by soothing music and beautiful singing, girls dance around the bonfire, leading the people to join in, singing, dancing and singing loudly.
In this world without much entertainment, singing and dancing at a bonfire dinner is the most interesting thing that ordinary people can be exposed to. They are excited, excited, and impatient.
Girls are ready.
The noisy crowd fell silent, and thousands of pairs of eyes stared at them.
Just wait for the music to start.
greatly awaited!
However, the silence unexpectedly lasted for a long time, and no one heard the music coming.
"Hey? What's going on?"
"Where's the music? Why hasn't the music started yet?"
"Hurry up!"
People were getting impatient, and so was Campbell. He turned to Colin and said, "Go and see what's going on."
Colin passed by and came back after a while. At this time, there was also a sweaty bearded man holding a lyre in his hand, and he came back. That was the musician Balu.
Campbell asked straight to the point: "What's going on? Where's the music?"
Baloo knelt down in front of Campbell, buried his head between his knees and said: "Grandpa Baron, we have encountered some troubles. Old Bo's arm was smashed while working this morning. He is our only Root."
hand..."
When the people around heard what Balu said, they suddenly became uproar.
"Ah? Root's hand is injured?"
"No, at this time, how could it be like this..."
"The banquet..."
"I...I have been preparing for so long..."
Everyone is obviously very anxious. Singing and dancing are the most important part of the banquet. Many girls have even started to prepare carefully for this day a few weeks ago, just for the singing and dancing at this bonfire banquet...
"Wizard, don't we have a wizard? If it is a wizard, he will be able to restore him to his original state, right?" At this time, someone shouted.
Suddenly, thousands of eyes were all fixed on Heath.
'Uh...these guys are asking too much, right?'
Heath was speechless.
After hesitating for a moment, he stood up and said, "I'll go take a look."
A banquet without singing and dancing lacks soul. The atmosphere tonight has already been enhanced. If possible, he still hopes not to spoil the fun.
Coming to the left side of the bonfire, there was a separate open space where a dozen men and women gathered, holding whistles, violins, pipe organs, sheepskin drums and other common musical instruments in this world.
Heath quickly saw Lute's hand surrounded by everyone. He was a middle-aged fat man in his forties. He was holding the lute in one hand, and the other hand was tied with a bandage made of cloth.
Probably injured.
Heath walked over and checked his injuries, his brows furrowing involuntarily.
He said: "I'm sorry, maybe there's nothing I can do."
This is a very serious comminuted fracture, and the bones inside are all broken. Although the magic he masters can cure it, it will take at least several days. Instant recovery requires at least a wizard level to achieve it.
"ah..."
"Wizard...even Lord Wizard..."
"Eh..."
After hearing Heath's speech, everyone's expressions were obviously disappointed, and Lao Bo even lowered his head in self-blame and was speechless.
With the productivity of Brittany, it is not an easy task to hold a campfire dinner of this scale, especially after tonight, under the double blow of war and plague, no one knows when the next one will be held.
Feeling the spreading loss and regret, Heath was also a little uncomfortable. It was rare that the atmosphere was so good today, but he didn't expect such a result.
He couldn't help but think: 'Is this really the only way?'
'Magic really can't help much at this stage, but what about other than magic? For example...'
Suddenly, a strange idea flashed through Heath's mind.
He immediately stared at Lao Bo, and at the same time silently recited the spell in his heart that only he knew: extract!
Like blessing to the soul.
"Dip, the draw was successful and I got the piano skill: Lute."
"Hey, congratulations to the host for winning the double reward and getting the music score "The Great"."
This is really...
Heath really didn't know what to say, maybe...maybe...he was really the child of destiny? Otherwise, how could he think that something was true and something was not?
Putting aside the random thoughts in his mind, Heath said to Lao Boer: "Can you lend me the piano?"
Old Boer was stunned: "Sir, are you..."
Everyone's eyes widened.
Heath smiled and said: "Although magic can't help you recover from your injuries, I don't think the current problem necessarily requires magic to solve. I also know a thing or two about lutes."
Everyone almost thought they heard it wrong. As a kind of cheap music, the lute has always been popular among the people. Those who make good use of it are ordinary people and minstrels. It is a typical type that cannot be refined, even if it is a lowly person.
Even the nobles don't bother to master it, and the wizard who is so superior...will do this?
He took the piano from the dazed old Bo'er.
Heath met everyone's surprised eyes and smiled mysteriously: "Don't you always say: 'Wizards know everything?'"
As soon as he finished speaking, he gently plucked the strings.
The structure is similar to that of a guitar, but there are many more strings. However, due to Heath's "exquisite" skills, he still plucked them accurately and sequentially, and the sound of the strings vibrating echoed in the resonance box.
, the brisk rhythm also flows out through the sound hole, echoing under the stars on this summer night.
That's what everyone is going to play tonight: greatness.
Lila Hand Balu's spirit was shaken. He shouted excitedly to the band members who were still stunned next to him: "Quick, quick, everyone, get ready, everyone, get ready!"
Everyone suddenly woke up.
Everyone quickly took their places, first came Balu's lyre, the soothing sound was like a stream flowing in the forest, then the whistle, loud and clear, like a bird singing at dawn, and then the elegant harp, playing
The beating sheepskin drums, the long organ...
Finally, accompanied by the heavenly singing voice of the lead singer, the cheerful people danced happily around the vigorously burning bonfire.
Amidst the bursts of joy and laughter, the banquet kicked off.
