A lively bonfire dance was going on in the small square in the middle of the village.
The villagers took out earthen musical instruments from their homes and played simple but cheerful rhythms. More people gathered around the campfire, humming country tunes and jumping around.
The dance steps they danced were very unprofessional and inelegant in the eyes of high-end people like Anya and the housekeeper who had attended high-class balls.
Either he stands with his hands on his hips and his feet turned inwards, with only his waist and hips swinging from side to side according to the rhythm; or he pulls his feet forward and back, and his shoulders swing back and forth to the left and right.
Although it was very simple, it had an inexplicable magical quality and looked particularly cheerful. It made Anya feel itchy as she watched and wanted to participate. However, due to the restraint of the noble lady, she was not embarrassed to take the initiative to take that step.
Keli understood her anyway, and after dancing for a while, she came over and dragged her along. Then Anya got in with a "half push, half a push".
She quickly got into it, dancing two simple but magical dance steps. Driven by the cheerful atmosphere around her, the smile on her face was even more open and unrestrained than Keli's.
The butler stood aside conscientiously and had no intention of interfering.
After two rounds of group dances, the atmosphere reached a climax and the individual show at the dance began.
The village chief and village bully, Luo Er, was the first to appear, holding a ball made of weeds in his hand. He first showed off his ball skills in a fancy way, and then squatted half-crouched, pushing his shoulders back and forth like crazy.
This is a high-end dance that he practiced for two and a half years before mastering.
Then, six more neighbors came forward carrying pieces of wood to dance with him. Roll found a hoe and waved it while stepping to the beat; while the six neighbors behind him carried the wood on their shoulders.
Dance with his steps.
Their movements are very well-tuned, smooth and natural. They are obviously very skilled and professional, and they should have practiced regularly.
At the end of the dance, Anya and Keli performed a popular dance in the Imperial City. Their movements were completely synchronized, as elegant and beautiful as swans. Their skirts flew with the dance steps, and every move was beautiful.
Huan, like two epiphyllums blooming in the night, made the surrounding villagers' eyes almost pop out of their eyes, and they kept applauding and applauding.
Although Keli doesn't like reading, she is quite interested in dancing and has worked hard for it.
"Keli's mother is so beautiful!"
"It's nice to dance too."
"Yes, yes, the village chief is really powerful!"
Although Rohr has already explained it, these guys always have their own stubbornness.
After the dance ended, everyone went home with unfinished content. A kind person had already helped to boil hot water for the two girls, Keli and Anya, to soak first.
Looking at the big bathtub that was taller than herself, Keli jumped in and splashed a lot of water. Anya was more reserved and stretched out her hand to test the temperature before untying the bath towel and slowly climbed in.
.
It was her first time to experience this kind of primitive bathtub, and looking at the wild flower petals floating on the water made her dumbfounded.
“Sure enough, bathing at home is the most comfortable!”
Keli hummed softly, narrowed her eyes slightly, and leaned against the edge of the tub with a face full of enjoyment. Her long silver hair floated on the water, like a pure white lotus.
Anya wrapped her long hair in a towel, revealing her elegant and slender neck like a swan. After soaking for a while, she suddenly asked:
"When are you going to give that surprise to Uncle Roll?"
"Gulu gulu gulu"
Keli was burying her head in the water and blowing bubbles. When she heard Anya asking, she raised her head, with some embarrassment and hesitation on her face.
She did prepare a big surprise for Luo Er, which was the method of regenerating severed limbs that she had worked so hard to find.
The reason why I didn't take it out right away was because this thing was a bit special, and could even be said to have come from a shady origin. I was worried that Rohr wouldn't be able to accept it, and would even scold him in turn.
That thing was confiscated after she helped annihilate a cult stronghold. It was a man-made pseudo-sacred object. It was originally supposed to be handed over to the Scholars Association for safekeeping, but the sages there knew that Keli was looking for a way to regenerate severed limbs.
It was a good idea to sell it to her and give it to her as a gift.
This thing was made by those cultists who killed hundreds of people. It is evil and powerful, and has many vicious functions, and the regeneration of severed limbs is just one of them.
If you want to use this kind of pseudo-sacred object, you often have to pay a very heavy price. Fortunately, after experiments by the Scholars Association, they found that if you just use the function of regeneration of severed limbs, the price is actually not bad, but the character will appear.
Changes, becoming irritable and irritable, accompanied by neurasthenia, insomnia, osteoporosis and other minor problems.
But if you accidentally activate other functions above, the price you have to pay will not be so easy...
Moreover, once used, this false holy object must be worn for life. If it is taken away, the regenerated limbs will be broken again and cause serious harm to the user's body.
So this is actually a very dangerous and useless thing, otherwise scholars who are always known for being stingy would not be so generous.
Keli also knew that her father was very upright and always hated evil. If he knew the origin of this thing, he would definitely not accept it. If he really wanted to use it, he would have to find another way to hide it from him.
Her father's proud and happy look before made her unable to bear to deceive him anymore.
But if it is not used, it will not be so easy to find other ways to regenerate amputated limbs. This is still an unsolved academic problem, and even the Scholars Association has no good solution.
"Sister Anya, I think...why not use it?"
Kelly asked tentatively.
"Well, you can decide for yourself."
Anya replied softly.
Keli asked a little worriedly:
"But, I said in my letter that I would bring a surprise for dad. If not, would it be..."
"I don't think so."
"For you to be able to come back and show a small part of your excellence is the biggest surprise for a father."
Anya replied quite firmly.
"Yeah, I think that's the case too. Dad loves me the most. He definitely won't mind this little thing."
Keli suddenly figured it out, and her mood improved. She stretched out her limbs in the tub and put her white feet on the edge of the tub, swaying like two fresh and delicious little white fish.
Seeing her comfortable look, Anya wanted to imitate her, but found that the tub was too small for her height and she couldn't extend it.
Next time you come here, bring a large bathtub over, one that can fit two people!
