Shadow Covenant

Chapter 67 "Familiar Eyes"

Verando didn't come to the hut in front of Woody's door until it was getting dark, and Woody was using the "Stone Gloves" in the house at this time, and he planned to dig a tunnel leading to the outside world.

The spell attached to "Stone Shaping Gloves" can not only make a piece of hard rocky ground as easy to dig as mud, but also after the effect of the spell is erased, the soft and waxy ground will return to hard soil for digging tunnels Or it would be perfect to build underground fortifications.

This is also a back road he subconsciously left for himself as a senior adventurer after meeting the drow priest...

"Wait, let me change my clothes!"

After Woody heard the knock on the door and went to open the door, he looked at Verando who was ready to go, and then at his shirt covered in yellow mud, and then remembered that he was going out tonight.

Go back to the room to change clothes, clean up some of the dirt on the ground, and then move a wooden box to cover the entrance of the secret passage that has not yet been completed. Together with Lan Duo, they walked towards the exit of the gate of the manor.

Wei Landuo did not wear the luxurious pink pleated skirt at noon at night, but simple and neutral scholar's clothing.

Seen from the bottom up, except for the pair of calfskin boots, the girl is wearing black breeches that set off her slender legs, and her upper body is a dark brown vest with a white shirt, which makes her skin fairer and clearer. Coupled with the black top hat that gathered the blond hair, leaving only a little strand of hair spilling over the ears, this noble girl was a little less weak and a little more heroic.

"Cousin, how is it? I've been looking for a long time. I wanted to wear a skirt, but my mother said that long skirts are not suitable for walking on the streets of the trade zone. There are too many people there."

As soon as he came out, Verando started bouncing around to show him off, and seemed a little dissatisfied.

"Indeed, there is no problem with what my aunt said. There should be quite a lot of people on the street."

Woody nodded pertinently. He recalled the various festivals he once had in "The Saint". No matter which large-scale festival, people must be indispensable.

Like in Asenland, except for the Northland he is most familiar with, there will be a festival called "Midwinter Festival" held on the dead winter day when half of the winter has passed.

In addition, there are many festivals that come with the changing seasons.

From the "Green Grass Festival" celebrating the resurrection of all things in the Moon of Spring Awakening-the elves and halflings will hold a half-month banquet to celebrate the departure of winter.

And then to the festival "Midsummer Festival" where music and love sprout, many bards will perform on this day, telling the world the adventure stories he experienced to the world in the melodious sound of the piano, and even in other planes, there is Shu, the goddess of love. The city of Na Temple will even encourage young men and women to complete the most in-depth communication and exchanges under the gaze of God.Moreover, it is also allowed for unmarried teenagers and girls not to return home at night, and many marriage contracts are often made on the second day of Midsummer Festival...

The second is the "Autumn Celebration" which celebrates the harvest. The nobles will hold a dinner in the mansion and manor, while the urban commoners will go out of their homes at this time to celebrate the joy of the harvest with strangers on the street.

The consuls of many city-states will also invite circuses and parade art performances to be held in the cities under their rule. They also want to take this festival and look forward to a better harvest of taxes next year.

"Okay then, and..."

After listening to Woody's words, Verando reluctantly tucked away the top hat that was curled up by the curly hair, and started chattering mode.

Woody is the essence of being a patient and good listener. While responding, he is thinking about planning the route when he goes to the trade zone tonight.

After all, in addition to building weapons, he also wanted to visit the caravan assembly point by the way.

In addition to merchants transported by sea at the pier, Palermo also has caravans traveling by land.

It's just not as many as in the dock area. They are generally concentrated in a merchant assembly street near the south gate in the trade area.

Now that he has solved the curse, he has no burden.

Make an appointment in advance to find a caravan that is about to leave Palermo and go to the Koval Forest in the northern part of the Baviallo Kingdom. a period of time.

For more than two years, we can say whether it is fast or not.

But if he wants to obtain more strange items or favors that have not yet been taken by others, he must not slack off for a moment.

The location of the Star Whale is illusory, even with the memory of his previous life, he couldn't locate it accurately.

Therefore, before finding the astral whale and leaving Ashland.

Naturally, his goal is to obtain as many strange items as possible and obtain specialties as much as possible according to the procedures in the more familiar Northland.

In this way, after he leaves Ashland, he will have stronger risk resistance and higher fault tolerance to meet new challenges.

The two were walking on the path of the manor, and they could already faintly hear the hustle and bustle coming from the lit mansion ahead. Obviously, a dinner party for the nobles did not end so quickly.

After all, in addition to the family banquet, Susan also invited a large number of wine dealers and partners to the wine estate to celebrate the harvest festival.

When Woody and Willando left the manor, Willandot met several groups of guests who entered the manor with gifts on the road.

They also showed great respect when they recognized Verando who was traveling in casual clothes, and Verando had no choice but to return the salutes one by one.

"Cousin Woody, that's why I'm not staying home tonight, Mother wants me to say hello to them all."

"My God, this is more torturous than going to Mammy's theology class. Fortunately, cousin, you accompanied me out, otherwise I would go crazy..."

"Besides, I have lost all my hair, but I still want to take off my hat. This is not a gentleman's behavior..."

"Someone still smells of parsley in their mouth, oh, how can someone like parsley, and stick it so close to me..."

……

Thanks to the fifth group of merchants who greeted her, Verando and Woody boarded the carriage to the trade area. In the private compartment of the carriage, the girl who was restrained by nature immediately let go a lot, enjoying herself. He kept complaining about the people and things he met just now, and imitated the clumsy performances of those businessmen from time to time, as if he had endless words to say.

For some reason, Woody sat in this stable carriage, listening to Verando's delicate voice like her facial features, and the crisp sound of horseshoes outside the window accompanied by the bright fireworks rising from the river bank in the trade area, he felt a little nostalgic in his heart. this moment.

However, as the carriage stopped suddenly, Woody's reverie was interrupted.

"What's wrong?" Veranduo was curious about the reason why the carriage stopped.

"Master, miss, the inspection is going on ahead, the road is blocked."

The voice of the coachman came in through the door, and Woody also looked forward to the left, and found that the bridge not far away was tightly blocked, and the carriages coming and going were in a mess.

"The horses seem to be out of control, and it will take some time to restore order."

The coachman stopped the carriage by the side of the road while explaining the situation to the two of them.

"Hey, isn't that the Mel family's carriage? Jenferne is finally back?"

Verando, who was sitting by the car window on the right, could just see the carriage passing by the road, and said in surprise.

"Is it your classmate?" Woody asked casually.

"Yes, Jenny is in the same college as me. There seemed to be something wrong with their family a month or two ago, so they took her away from Palermo. At that time, I thought she might not come back until after the year, but I didn't expect... ..."

Weilando rested her hands on the window of the carriage, and her eyes never left her eyes, like a dog curious about the outside world.

"Then do you want to go up and say hello?" Woody thought of Verlando's complaints just now, and felt that she seemed to be socially afraid, so he teased her.

Sure enough, upon hearing Woody's words, Weilando shook her head like a rattle.

"No, she is a famous and beautiful girl in the college. I don't have the slightest sense of existence. Maybe she doesn't even remember me...Look, Jenny."

Verando yelled while pointing at a place outside the car window, and Woody shifted his gaze from the riverside night scene to the position Verando pointed to.

Sure enough, I saw a beautiful girl. She was wearing a typical southern aristocratic long dress and a white velvet-trimmed lady hat. It doesn't seem to be a good look.

However, why is it... familiar?
