Chapter 268 Winter Veil Festival

Winter Veil is the last festival of the year in Azeroth. People will celebrate the arrival of this festival for more than ten days from December 15th to January 2nd.

Both dwarves and tauren are telling an ancient legend when snow covers the earth, and celebrating a moment of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new.

Each race has different understandings of this legendary story, and the way they tell this story is also different due to the differences between each race.

The word "Winter Veil" comes from a supernatural being: Grandpa Winter.

Grandpa Winter will appear all over the world in Azeroth at the end of the year, bringing with it a biting cold wind. His awakening means that the earth will be covered in white snow, so some people say that it is Grandpa Winter who covers the earth with a winter veil.

Although most of the continent of Azeroth is covered in white snow, it breeds rebirth.

People in the world of Azeroth gather together to celebrate at this time to celebrate the beginning of new life.

There is no snow all year round in the barren land. Even during the Winter Curtain Festival, there is still not a single snowflake on the ground, but this does not affect people's enthusiasm for celebrating the Winter Curtain Festival.

When Yang Yi rode a cargo kodo into the backwater village, he found that many adventurers had joined in the celebration of the Winter Veil Festival.

It has been more than two years since adventurers came to the world of Azeroth, and many of them have slowly integrated into the life of this world.

Adventurers don't care much about the origins of the festival itself, and rarely care about the various traditions and legends about the Winter Veil Festival. For them, the Winter Veil Festival is just a festive festival.

All the adventurers care about is that they can celebrate during this festival, taste delicious food and exchange gifts, which is the custom of the Aboriginal people during the Winter Veil Festival.

Goblin merchants have seized the business opportunities of this festival very well. They have used the image of Grandpa Winter, an incarnation of the legendary Titan of the dwarves, for commercial purposes, and it has become a mascot for them to sell various goods.

Compared with the last time Yang Yi left Backwater Village, Backwater Village not only built many new buildings, but also built a circle of village-level log walls around the town's level-3 city wall.

Two walls completely isolated the inside and outside of Backwater Village. When Yang Yi entered Backwater Village, he saw two completely different scenes inside and outside.

Completely different from the lively celebration scene outside, the fishmen in the backwater village gathered together in small groups, looking a little bored.

Some murlocs heard the noise outside the city wall and wanted to go out curiously, but were stopped by the murlocs specially arranged by Slak.

Without Yang Yi's permission, Silk would not let any murloc go outside the backwater village.

"Slak, you did a good job. The backwater village was built very quickly." Yang Yi praised as soon as he arrived.

"Lord, Backwater Village has built a total of a circle of walls, a hundred murloc huts, five warehouses, an inn, a grocery store, a barracks, an armory, an arena and an auction house. "Slark reported.

The blueprints of the two buildings, the Arena and the Auction House, were specially bought by Yang Yi from goblin merchants. These two buildings were built between the log wall and the earthen city wall. This area will be open to business in the future. district.

Yang Yi built these two buildings in the commercial district as a powerful tool to attract people to the backwater village.

Yang Yi nodded after listening and said: "Very good. Next, we need to find a piece of land in the backwater oasis to cultivate farmland, and build a seaweed and seashell farm in the lake to cultivate seaweed and seashells. We will strive to build a backwater village in the future. Be as self-sufficient as possible in food.”

"Yes, Lord!"

"Slak, why do the fishmen in the village look so listless?" Yang Yi asked.

"Lord, these fishmen wanted to go out to participate in the Winter Veil Festival, but I stopped them." Slark replied.

Yang Yi saw that the gate of the backwater village's log wall and the gate of the earth city wall were always closed. It was only opened for a while when he led the team in, and now it is closed again.

"Slak, go and ask the murlocs to open the door to the wooden wall. Invite the goblin merchants outside. Now the area between the wooden wall and the earthen city wall will be open to the outside world," Yang Yi said.

The backwater village needs to be opened to the outside world, and sooner or later the fishmen in Ratchet Town will have to come into contact with the indigenous people and adventurers.

Yang Yi decided to take advantage of this Winter Veil Festival to move the celebration venue to an area open to the public, so that the fish and people could communicate with people outside during the festival carnival.

This is also to pave the way for the inauguration ceremony of Backwater Village two days later.

The long-closed door of the wooden wall was opened by the fishman. The adventurers and natives outside the wall discovered that the fishman did not intend to close it again immediately after the door was opened.

A fishman ran out and posted a notice on the bulletin board outside the gate, announcing that the business district of Backwater Village was opening to the outside world.

The adventurous adventurers first surrounded the bulletin board.

Slack ignored the adventurers surrounding the bulletin board. He came out with a group of murlocs and followed Yang Yi's instructions to spend some money to invite all the goblin merchants outside to the wooden fence.

After seeing the coins, the goblin merchants carried their stalls and goods into the business district of Backwater Village with a smile, and quickly found a place to continue their business.

The adventurers also walked in with the goblin merchants. They found that the commercial area of ​​Backwater Village occupied a large area, but only four buildings were built.

They are an auction house, an arena, an inn and a small grocery store.

The auction house is the first-level auction house in the town and the lowest-level auction house. This is actually an open-air auction house, except that there is a roof on top of the auction platform, and the people participating in the auction below can only sit on benches in the open space.

Yang Yi originally didn't want to spend money and effort to buy blueprints and build an auction house, but the aboriginal auctioneers had to have an auction house to work, so he had no choice but to spend money.

Many adventurers came to Backwater Village this time not to attend the inauguration ceremony of Backwater Village, but to participate in the auction.

According to the natives, large auctions are held regularly in Orgrimmar and Thunder Bluff near the Barrens.

However, these two cities are the main cities of tribal orcs and tauren respectively, and adventurers are not allowed to enter easily, so adventurers have no chance to participate in the auction.

The auction held in Backwater Village can be said to be the only one that adventurers near the Barrens have the opportunity to participate in. More importantly, the murlocs of Ratchet Town have already posted the list of items to be auctioned on the bulletin board.

There are a lot of good things on the list, which is why so many people come.

In the backwater village, the murlocs curiously surrounded the goblin merchants selling snacks and small gifts. The goblin merchants selling food were the most popular among the murlocs.

Only then did the goblin merchant discover that the fishmen in the backwater village not only had money, but were also willing to spend money on food, which was completely different from the adventurers outside.

Adventurers should save most of their money and spend it on purchasing equipment, and rarely spend too much money on delicious food.

The food merchants brought small gingerbread cookies, candy canes, and ale wine, and the sales were booming, which made the gift merchants who were doing little business envious.

Seeing that there is a lot of business here, food merchants began to ask adventurers to purchase meat, eggs, fish and other ingredients to prepare food on the spot.

Even gift merchants have joined the ranks of the acquisition market, and they also want a piece of the pie.

The Winter Veil celebration in the business district of Backwater Village soon turned into a food festival.

Yang Yi saw that the commercial area of ​​Backwater Village became lively as soon as it opened. He asked Slak to arrange some beach patrol murlocs to maintain order.

After that, Yang Yi took his two followers, Benbolba and Mojimus, to the Backwater Tauren Village on the small peak opposite the lake.

Yang Yi learned from Slark that Bain was in the mountain, so he picked a snowman doll from the goblin merchant as a gift for the Winter Veil Festival.

There is a tradition of exchanging gifts during the Winter Curtain Festival, and Yang Yi also followed the local customs.

On the steep mountain road leading to the tauren village, several big black cows were guarding the intersection with big wooden sticks, not allowing any outsiders to approach the village.

Ben Bolba stepped forward and reported Yang Yi's identity, and told them that they were looking for the tauren Bain.

Several big black cows discussed in a muffled voice for a long time before one of the black cows went to the village to inform Bain.

Not long after Black Bull entered the village, Bain came down from the village on the mountain.

"These big black cows are really ignorant. They didn't let us enter the village. Instead, they asked Bain, the son of the chief, to come out of the village to meet us." Ben Bol Ba muttered to Yang Yi in a low voice when he saw Bain coming down.

Yang Yi chuckled and said nothing more.

He has now heard about the internal situation of the Tauren, and knows that the big black bulls of the Dead Water Tauren are all Tauren of the Wild Totem Clan, and the Tauren of this clan are inextricably linked to the Tauren of the Horrible Totem Clan. Relationship.

It is said that the Wild Totem Clan and the Grim Totem Clan are both derived from the second largest clan of the early tauren - Brilliant Totem. It can be said that they are of the same origin and species.

The two tauren clans share the same dark skin, the same opposition to the Alliance alignment, and both are warlike.

However, compared to the Wild Totem clan, the Horror Totem clan has a more narrow and stubborn racial and tribal consciousness, and is more warlike and barbaric. They often raided other tauren tribes, and considered Cairne Bloodhoof's friendship with the orcs a huge mistake and were excluded from the Horde's camp.

The Wild Totem clan is actually the moderate faction of the Radiant Totem clan, while the Grim Totem clan is the radical faction. The latter deviates from the peaceful purpose of the orc warchief Thrall and the tauren chief Kane.

"I heard that the leader of the Wild Totem clan is a female tauren named Magatha Wildtotem. She actually controls the warlike Horrible Totem clan, and the tauren chief Kane asked Magatha to stay in Thunder Bluff just for surveillance. she."

"No matter how you look at these big black bulls, they don't look like good stubble, and Bain's efforts to help these tauren seem to be to change their minds, hoping to maintain his father's idea of ​​uniting all tauren clans. ”

Yang Yi felt that Bain was still too young, so he had such an idea. .
