Chapter 194 Celebration Day
The pages of the calendar were torn off, and the date of the moon worship was getting closer, but the residents of the city that never sleeps became more and more at a loss.
The change is still going on. Every morning, new balloons are raised in the workshop, blowing and blowing, passing through the city, and the slogans hanging above are not repeated every day:
"How to use new technology to make old programs glow with a new luster?"
"Redefine a party."
"Watches, is it really the end of mechanism art?"
...
Every day, a new slogan will throw out a suspense, and the changes in the night city are not only there.
With the addition of a review and training procedure for the merchants entering the venue, even the highlight of previous festivals, the "stars" and masters of the tricks of the Wangting Song and Dance Troupe, have also received the "isolation rehearsal" request.
And the flickering lights and shadows and strange whistling sounds that erupt from time to time in the central square, as well as some unknowable news that flows out of it, have become a topic of interest among the residents of Evernight City.
"This year, the stage in the square is extremely large, and it has special effects. Every day there are craftsmen in the workshop busy there."
"His Royal Highness Sese appeared in the square area, and someone saw her guards."
"The great craftsman of Wang Ting Workshop is also there, but all of them seem to be obedient to a young man, yes, it seems to be the mountain and sea from the countryside."
"Don't you believe it? I'll find out later!"
In the pub, similar topics are circulated every day, and people's curiosity has become more and more intense. Although the square is not open yet, many people come to, gather and discuss every day.
When the hot air balloon rises in the early morning, there will be young clansmen trailing through the streets and alleys.
...
"The city that never sleeps, it hasn't been so lively for many years."
On the highest building in the palace, the chief patriarch looked at the conspicuous balloons flying in the sky in the distance, and listened to the cheers in the city, with some emotion.
After all, the Moon Worship Festival has been held too many times, and it is no longer fresh and interesting. Many people have no sense of celebrating the festival. However, this year, under the warm-up activities led by Lin Tuo, it is particularly lively.
"Your Majesty, tomorrow is the festival day, do you really want to hold it according to their ideas?" asked the slightly old administrative minister beside him.
"Why not? Are you not curious?" As he said, the chief patriarch took out a report from nowhere, shaking lightly, his eyes filled with surprise:
"This mountain and sea does have some meaning. If I was just curious a few days ago, now, I really think that alchemy may be a good thing."
That "report" originated from the workshop. From the first day of the fight, Lin Tuo's daily movements and details of alchemy will be sorted out by the master craftsman of the workshop and sent to the palace.
In addition, the city hall and Sese are also constantly providing information, and Lin Tuo seems to have no resistance to this, no, to be precise, he seems to be deliberately showing it.
"According to the craftsmen, these days, they have been working in accordance with Shanhai's drawings and instructions, using the branches and juice of the moon tree in a peculiar way to assemble and manufacture so-called alchemical products...
In the process, Shanhai even deliberately explained the details, as if he was teaching the knowledge consciously, and as if showing it to us."
The chief patriarch said slowly.
The tone was full of emotion.
In the past few days, although he did not go to check, but he has been paying attention to the movement there.
Although the moon worship is only a festival, it really has to be left to someone who doesn't understand it, and it doesn't matter where it is.
The reason for agreeing to Lin Tuo was that he cured the congestion with three points, and the seven points came from Lin Tuo's own tolerance and "alchemy" knowledge.
And the reports in the past few days did not disappoint him.
In the first few letters, the master craftsman in the workshop was just a routine record, somewhat reluctant.
As the top craftsman in the entire royal court, it is not simply acceptable to serve as a deputy to an unknown young man.
But soon, his attitude was reversed 180 degrees.
From the earliest reluctance, to later surprise, to solemnity.
In the latest report, Wang Ting, who is the head of the hundreds of workers, spoke earnestly about the vastness and greatness of "Alchemy" and claimed that this is the knowledge of goalkeepers to change the times.
The young man named "Shanhai" was full of praise, completely without the predecessor's arrogance.
All this surprised the great patriarch.
He knows very well that the master craftsman has always been extremely confident in his field, but now he can be convinced in just a few days... How amazing is this?
"However, the doubts on him are still unclear." On the side, the minister of administration couldn't help but said, "According to the information we obtained from the investigation, Shan Hai is not like such a knowledgeable person, and even his temperament is very different from the investigation. ."
"I know," the chief patriarch said in silence, "so I am also observing, but I still don't see any threat.
Moreover, the day he came, it happened to be the time when the moon tree changed, but in these few days, the moon tree did not change anymore."
"what do you mean……"
"You said, is his appearance the will of Yueshu?"
...
...
The people in the city that never sleep are not aware of the conversation in the palace, but the festival atmosphere is getting stronger.
And just when people's curiosity reached its peak, the moon worship ceremony finally arrived.
One night's makeup.
In the morning, the whole city was immersed in an atmosphere of joy. Each house was decorated with flowers and ornaments, and the Yue people in the city were all dressed up.
When Han Ye woke up, changed his clothes, and walked out of the residence, he saw people on the street rushing towards the central square in groups.
"Hurry up, I heard that the partitions in the square have finally been removed."
"It was demolished last night and the inside has been opened."
Around, people’s conversations are filled with irrepressible excitement.
Seeing this scene, Han Ye's tired face also showed surprise.
In the past few days, she initially protected her Highness in the workshop, and later she was transferred to the square to take charge of guarding work. She watched the brand new stage set up little by little, and had very little communication with the outside world.
It wasn't until the day before the festival that she finally went back to sleep hard to ensure the spirit of the celebration day.
Therefore, until now, when she joined the crowd as a "resident of the city that never sleeps", she really felt the turbulent festive atmosphere.
Suddenly, the hot air balloon that counted down to zero days flew up.
Floating from the nearby street towards the square.
At this moment, many people cheered on the street.
"Why are they so excited? Did those fancy'warm-up' programs really work?" Han Ye was surprised.
She knew very well that this was the handwriting of the guy with no tail.
He even remembered that he smiled and handed over a whole set of "warm-up plans" to His Highness, who then passed it on to himself, asking for the look of the government affairs office when it cooperated.
"This is a holiday party, how can we miss the warm-up event?" Lin Tuo's words seemed to be echoing in his ears, "Unfortunately, the time is too tight, otherwise if you wait for a full set of alchemy equipment to build, you can do better. "
Even the plan also contains some "insider" information that was deliberately leaked out.
At that time, Han Ye was a little dissatisfied with this, wondering if this alone could arouse people's enthusiasm?
But right now, people seem to have indeed rekindled their expectations for the festival program.
"With so many people, I won't be able to squeeze in."
This thought arose inexplicably, Han Ye couldn't help speeding up.
When she reached the central square, she was shocked by the surging heads in front of her.
At this moment, the square was crowded with people, and the high arches divided the square into four entrances. In each place, people from the security post were maintaining order, but the turbulent flow of people still crowded the place.
Relying on the strength of the figure, Hanye can see the stage in the core area of the square that is many times larger and more magnificent than in previous years.
Behind the stage, there is a huge background board that is erected and covered with cloth.
Han Ye knew that under the seemingly square table, a complicated alchemy device was placed under the doctor's instructions and connected with a cable.
It's just that, it hasn't been activated yet. The whole stage only has dark, cabinet-like "sounds" on both sides of the stage, playing the music recorded by the top singers in the city.
It's also amazing to say that the song that could only be heard when you were close, was surprisingly loud after the big box was released.
Even this messy square cannot be suppressed.
I looked around, and sure enough, many residents who had just arrived here were surprised to find the source of the sound, but their eyes widened and they couldn't find it alive.
"Where does the singing come from?"
"It seems to be the direction of the stage!
Could it be that the singer is hiding under the stage, or singing behind?
But why is the sound so loud?
Oh my god, even the most powerful soprano singer can't spread it all over the venue, right?"
"Ah, I heard it, this is Miss Starry Night's famous song, eh, another one?"
Listening to the bewildered and dazed appearance of the crowd next to him, the corners of Han Ye's mouth involuntarily cocked, and an inexplicable sense of superiority grew from the bottom of his heart.
I wanted to restraintly remind the source of the song, but was attracted by the shout of the sheriff captain in front:
"Miss Han Ye, you are here, Your Highness is looking for you."
Han Ye was startled, and hurriedly asked: "Where is Your Highness? I'll go over."
"In the'backstage'." The sheriff's captain pronounced the new word a little strangely, then looked at the surging crowd around, and the echoing singing, loudly said:
"You can pass through the'staff' passage!"
'Damn it, it's a new word again, how many new words did that nasty country doctor make?Can't remember good or not!'
Han Ye cursed in her heart, only then did she remember the existence of that passage.
Just about to thank, I saw that the other party had squeezed into the crowd loudly and went to maintain order.
With a sigh, Han Ye quickly walked out of the crowd by virtue of his physical advantage and came to the "staff" passage. There were indeed fewer people here.
After verifying her identity, she quickly walked through the corridor composed of partitions and arrived behind the big stage.
Here, it is a simple house built with wooden boards, divided into many rooms, there are large groups of craftsmen, guards, and even "actors" walking around, busy, a lively scene.
Han Ye kept walking along the signs, through the corridor, and went straight into the "central control hall". As soon as he entered, he saw Lin Tuo, who was in the center and continuously issued orders to the "department" personnel.
"Finally check the connectivity of the equipment at the bottom of the stage."
"To reiterate, it is strictly forbidden for anyone to approach the magic energy zone!"
"There is a problem with the auxiliary loudspeaker. Go and repair the No. 12 device board."
"Yes, the treatment here is correct."
At this moment, Lin Tuo was no longer the old robe of "Shanhai", but a white coat made specially, in the middle of the crowd, constantly issuing orders.
As soon as Han Ye looked here, she saw Wang Ting's chief craftsman holding a device with respect, and hurriedly leaving. Where is the pride of top craftsmen in the past few days?
Looking again, His Royal Highness Sesai, who was also wearing a white coat and stepping on an exoskeleton, was reading and discussing something that seemed to be a program list together with Xiao Qingkong.
While talking, he kept walking around repeatedly.
As if sensing her gaze, Sasai raised his head and looked over, smiling broadly:
"Ah, Han Ye, you are here, hurry up, help me return to the palace and help me fetch that suit. I forgot to bring it."
Han Ye was startled, a similar scene, although she had seen it many times in the past few days, but at this moment, when she saw Sese’s brilliant smile from the heart, as a close maid, she still warmed her heart:
After being injured and unable to stand up, how long has your Highness not smiled so brilliantly?
And all of this originated from that person.
Thinking about it, Han Ye couldn't help but look at Lin Tuo in the center of the crowd with complicated eyes.
"Look at what I do," Lin Tuo looked at the tall maid with some doubts in the backstage center, remembering what it was, and handed over a small hand-sized instrument, and said:
"It just so happens. Send this to the maintenance department when you go out. They will know how to deal with it."
