Chapter 872: The Continent of Fire (Part 2)
A long, long time ago, the world was not differentiated, and there was no concept of life and death, no concept of life.
Until one day, a god named Aino Green could no longer bear to see this world full of chaos.
Aenogrim is in charge of fire, so he gave this world full of chaos a ball of fire.
The coming of this fire changed the world.
The heat emitted by the flame dispels chaos and gives birth to life.
It was precisely since Aenogreen gave the world the flame that various species finally slowly appeared in the world.
Plants appeared, animals appeared, and humans appeared.
The Flam people believe that it is precisely because Ainogreen gave them fire that they can live on this land as they do now, so they respect Ainogreen very much and call Ainogreen the god of fire.
While they respect Aenogrin, they also respect the flames very much.
Many activities of the Flam people are related to fire.
For example - when guests come to the tribe, they will hold torches and circle around the guests.
They seem to think that by doing this, they can bring blessings to their guests.
When extinguishing a flame, such as a bonfire or a torch, they had to perform a complex ritual to extinguish the flame.
In their understanding, flame is a very sacred thing, so they cannot do any disrespectful behavior towards the flame. Even if they extinguish the flame, they have to go through a lot of complicated etiquette to extinguish the flame.
At the same time, they will also hold fire god festivals from time to time.
The so-called Fire God Festival, as the name suggests, is a sacrificial activity to the God of Fire, Aino Green, to thank Aino Green for giving them the flame.
The Fire God Festival is held very frequently, and almost every few days, they will hold the Fire God Festival in the evening.
Mu De and the others were quite interested in this Fire God Sacrifice at first, but after experiencing the Fire God Sacrifice nearly a dozen times, they were no longer interested in this sacrificial activity.
After all, anyone who experiences a sacrificial activity over and over again in a short period of time will feel bored.
Although the process of the Fire God Festival is not long, there are many various ceremonial activities to be done.
Singing and dancing.
He kowtowed to the flames and circled around them.
Throw something into the flame again, and extinguish the flame again...
The Fire God Festival will end only after a large number of activities that have no meaning in the eyes of Mu De and others.
Mu De and Blaise are the leaders of the guests, so every Fire God Festival, the Fram people of the Bavlam tribe will invite Mu De and Blaise to participate.
Mudd and Blaze were quite interested in the Vulcan Festival at first, but after doing a few Vulcan Festivals with the Flam people, they were no longer interested in the Vulcan Festival... …
After all, there are too many different activities to do and it’s too boring.
But after all, they were guests of the Bavlam tribe. As guests, they were too embarrassed to refuse the invitation of their hosts.
So even though they really didn't want to participate in any more Vulcan Festivals, they still had no choice but to go...
…
…
As soon as the sun went down, the Fire God Festival started on time.
Mu De and Blaise bravely accompanied the Fram people of the Bavlam tribe to perform the Vulcan sacrifice tonight, and then dragged their tired bodies back to their residence.
After returning to their residence, Mu De collapsed on his bed without any image.
"Blaze...is there any water? Pour me a glass..."
"then.
"
"Thank you."
Just as Mu De was drinking water to replenish his strength, Blaise suddenly said:
"Mu De, it's time for us to return home."
As soon as Blaise finished speaking, Mu De raised his eyebrows, and then said in a joking tone:
"Oh? Blaise, are you finally planning to escape back to the Old Continent because you can't stand the endless Vulcan Festival?"
"It's not because you can't stand the Fire God Festival." Blaise said angrily, "Mude, have you paid close attention to what your subordinates are thinking?"
After hearing what Blaise said, Mu De fell silent.
"Mu De, we came to the New World in winter."
"And it's already spring. We've been here in the New World for several months."
"After staying for such a long time, more and more soldiers are becoming dissatisfied."
"Not everyone is interested in this new continent."
"I went to see the soldiers yesterday, and some soldiers were secretly crying because they were homesick."
"Mudd, every ship's hold is now filled with gold."
"The food and drinking water needed for returning home have been fully stocked."
"So I think - it's almost time to go back home."
In fact, Mu De had been thinking about returning to China as mentioned by Blaise a long time ago.
After staying in the New World for too long, many soldiers have long been impatient because they miss their hometown.
Mu De had to care about what the soldiers were thinking.
After all, it is not impossible for the soldiers to launch a "mutiny" regardless of what they think, overthrow the "foolish" commander who has been keeping them in the New World and not allow them to go home, and then set off to return home.
After being silent for a while, Mu De finally spoke out:
"Going back to China..."
"That's right. When I first came to the New World, the weather was still very cold. Now the weather has warmed up."
"We have been in the New World for such a long time, and I don't know what the situation is like in China now..."
"Maybe they have already arranged a funeral for us." Blaise replied in a joking tone, "In the eyes of other people in China, we have been missing in the ocean for several months. After such a long time in the ocean, we must have turned into mummies or fish feces."
"That's true." Mude smiled bitterly, "In the eyes of other people in China, we must have died. I'm really curious about what expressions these people who thought we were dead would have if we transported these ships of gold back to the empire."
After that, Mude stood up from the bed.
"Okay, Blaise, help me pass the message to the soldiers later."
"Tell them - let them hold on for a while, and we will conduct a final inspection of the ships in the future."
"After inspecting each ship and confirming that there is no problem with each ship, we will officially set off to return home."
Blaise raised his eyebrows.
"Mud, you finally made up your mind to return home." Blaise said in a joking tone, "I saw that you were so interested in this new world and the Fram people, and I thought you were going to live here forever."
"How is that possible." Mude rolled his eyes at Blaise, "I'm still waiting to return to my country to accept the reward from His Majesty, how could I possibly want to live here in the New World for the rest of my life, stop talking nonsense, go and pass the message for me."
"Yes, yes, I'll go right away."
