103, late-night bonfire party
The suburbs in the north of Marde City are large fields. The smell of early spring has infected the earth, and all kinds of pansy have buds. Even in such a late night, there is a vitality in the silence.
Under the dark night sky, three figures are slowly passing through the pansy garden and moving in a certain direction.
"Where on earth do you want to take me?" Yin took Suti's hand and followed Idalos five steps away.
They walked for nearly an hour and saw that there were no artificial buildings around them. Yin knew that they were far away from Marde City and were in an environment where no one would come to help.
Idalos only replied, "It's almost there, keep up" and walked forward without looking back.
After walking for nearly half an hour, a firelight finally appeared in front of him. Hearing the human voice, Yin was curious. Idalos stopped and threw a headscarf: "Wrap your hair and cover your face. Don't make a sound no matter what you see for a while. Don't answer if someone talks to you. Both of you are, remember. "Is it?"
Yin did what he said and wrapped all her hair in the headscarf. The headscarf was very big, and she also covered her face, leaving only two eyes outside. Su Ti whispered nervously, "Sister Yin, where is he going to take us?" Yin shook her head and made a gesture to her not to talk anymore. Suti nodded obediently, closed her mouth, and was led by her to follow Idalos.
On a flat slope in the wilderness, a pile of burning bonfires played a role in lighting. Yin approached behind Idalos and saw many people surrounded by the bonfire. They were all wearing masks. There were men and women, different heights, fat and thin, and it was difficult to judge their identity.
"You're finally here. Everyone is waiting for you." A tall man spoke rudely and greeted them, "Are these two sacrifices you brought?"
Sacrifice? Yin almost dragged Suti away. How dare Idalus make an appointment to hold a ceremony with someone and treat himself as a living sacrifice?
Idalos shook his head very calmly: "I picked them up on the road. The two sisters are deaf and dumb. My sister also has a strange disease and is very sick. I plan to take them back to the Principality for treatment after the event."
A woman sitting opposite the bonfire asked, "What kind of disease can interest you?"
"A very rare skin disease with systemic ulceration." After Idalos finished speaking, the two men who tried to approach and flirt with Yin consciously withdrew their steps.
The appearance of Yin and Suti was just a small twist and turns, which did not attract too much attention. The people gathered by the bonfire seemed to get together for some unspeakable purpose and meet in such a place far away from the city. Yin counted, and there were four men and two women present, including Idalos. Judging from the tone of the conversation, they had never seen before.
The small man just now seemed to be the organizer of the party. After everyone found a place to sit down, he cleared his throat and said, "I called everyone here today, mainly to confirm the progress of the action. Everyone said, how is the completion? Isaiah, how are you doing?
Idalos sat cross-legged opposite him and replied calmly, "The whereabouts of the things have been found. I have confirmed that it is indeed placed in that place. You can get it whenever you need it. I will continue to monitor it."
The small man nodded: "Where are the others?" The remaining four men and women said that there was no problem and they were ready.
"Segris, where are you?" A woman with black curly hair asked him back.
The little man sighed, "It's still the same as in the past. The Sheger's gang are like freaks. They are so slender that they can't carry them on their backs. I was almost arrested and hanged several times."
The six people began to talk. Yin sat in a corner far away from them and quickly integrated information in her head.
The Scheger mentioned by the small man, the full name of the Scheger Democratic Alliance, is the smallest and most populous regime on the mainland. It is located in the southwest corner of the mainland and has no contact with the other five countries. Even the library of the Ivy Magic Martial Arts Academy does not have very detailed information. It only knows this country. The main reason why the family has not been annexed is that the ancient civilization site of the continent of Somera is in the territory of Shege. It is said that there is something in the site that is enough to command the whole continent. Everyone wants it, but they dare not dare to invade blatantly. On the one hand, they are afraid that the leaders of Sheg will hand over things to others for self-preservation, and secondly, they are also afraid that once they move. Hands, several other countries unite to resist, pulling one hair and moving the whole body, which is easy to cause wars on the whole continent.
So although Schaeger is small and poor, he burps leisurely around a group of giants. He doesn't eat oil and salt, doesn't eat soft or hard, and doesn't have contact with anyone.
"Why don't you kill them directly into their temple? In a country with bigger earwax, the temple may be built by thatched grass." The third man said with his teeth.
The little man shook his head seriously: "No, it's absolutely impossible with our ability. I've been to their temple. Although it's not big, the structure is quite complicated. It seems that I have been enchanted by special magic. If I stay in it for too long, I will get lost. I almost couldn't get out once."
These people want something hidden in the temple, and this thing seems to be in each of the Temple of the Six Kingdoms, and it looks very tight. Yin always feels that there is something in her impression that meets this condition, but I don't know if it's because he died once. Many things are vague and paradoxical in her mind. I feel it, but I can't catch it.
The party didn't last long. After discussing the following plans, the men and women stood up, took out knives and cut their fingers, dripped blood into the bonfire, and the bonfire was rubbed with human blood. Unexpectedly, the color slowly changed. First, it was purple, then it was blue, green, yellow, orange and black, and finally turned gray and white. Of.
"For the glory of Margaret." Idalos put his hand in his heart and said slowly.
Others followed suit: "For Margaret's glory."
Yin was stunned. This group of people was actually related to Margaret, and from their behavior, it was very similar to the illegal association seen in the duchy newspaper before. It was the kind of group of people gathered together for a funny reason to do something harmful and claimed that they were defending the truth.
The six people in front of them seem to have a strong admiration for Margaret and are doing some secret things for her, including getting the mysterious thing they were just discussing.
After the bonfire went out, everyone left separately. Yin also picked up Suti, who was asleep, to follow Idalos and returned to the city.
"What did you want to tell me when you brought me to this bonfire party?" I thought it was almost time for him to explain his intention tonight, but I didn't expect that it was almost to walk to the gate. Idalos was still silent. Finally, Yin couldn't stand it. If you don't take the initiative to say it, can't I take the initiative to ask?
Idalos did not look back and still walked slowly ahead: "They are all people who survived after being helped or protected by Margaret. They, like me, can't forgive what the Parth Army did seventeen years ago, so we gathered together to redefame her."
Yin Yi grinned and held Suti up, and then said, "What do you want to reintegrate Margaret? What does it have to do with me?"
After a few seconds of silence, Idalos asked, "Don't you have any idea about her death?"
"Yes," Yin nodded and admitted, "She is my mother, because she died, so I have been cut off since I was a child. I grew up in the white eyes of others, and I was kicked out of the house as a scapegoat, chased and threatened all the way..."
The person in front of him suddenly stopped and turned to look at her. Yin looked up at the man who was much taller than her, and was psychologically prepared to be scolded.
But Idalos was not as angry as she thought. He just said lightly, "I instigated Uris and Ivy to do what you were dropped."
Yin opened her eyes wide and almost couldn't carry the little Lori behind her: "Did you incite them to do it? Why?"
"To ensure that you can grow up safely," Idalos stood quietly less than two meters away from her, and the shining mask made people unable to see what his expression was. "To ensure that you will not die in the court struggle, to ensure that you can grow up as Margaret's daughter."
Yin was stunned by his words: "What do you mean? Am I not her daughter?"
Idalos shook his head: "You are, all I want to say is that Alex is not qualified to raise you, because he knows that Margaret died at the hands of the Parthian Legion and joined them in order to maintain his status as crown prince."
Although Alex has implicitly hinted at this point before, and now it has been said directly, Yin still can't accept it and asks, "I've been curious about a question. What is your relationship with Margaret? What do you want from me? Are you going to answer me?"
Idalos laughed and asked without answering, "Is Margaret's pocket watch in Cameron's hand? Did he give it to you?"
Just such a simple question is enough to show that he has a close relationship with Margaret. Cameron said that the pocket watch is Margaret's favorite. If it weren't for someone who is very familiar with her, he would not have thought of asking the pocket watch. Yin decided to talk first, so she said, "Mr. Cameron handed me a box of things. I haven't seen it yet. Why are you asking about the pocket watch?"
"You can throw away everything else. Keep your pocket watch, and you will use it in the future." After saying that, Idalos turned around and was about to leave.
Yin asked loudly, "Hey! You haven't answered my question yet. You are trying to arrange your life for me. What on earth do you want to do?
Idalos smiled and said in a nice voice, "I like her, so I also like you. I want you to live as wonderfully as her. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
"All you like is Margaret." Yin retorted mercilessly.
Idalos nodded: "Maybe you're right, but there's no difference here. You're her daughter, just like the second one. What you've experienced so far, the neglect of your family, the bullying of your classmates, the departure from home, being misunderstood, being chased... are all what she has experienced."
Yin shouted angrily, "That's what you arranged!" My life is not like this."
Idalos was indifferent to her anger and pointed to a dead corner of the gate: "If it weren't for me, would you have met him?"
Yin looked forward to him along his hand, and saw that the black currant was hiding in the shadow of the wall. He was exposed by him before he came out. His body was covered with sticky blood, and he still held a human head in his hand - the head of the wolf of the first moon.
