Chapter 1240: Castle owner

A man came out from behind the bookshelf. The man was very young, in his twenties, wearing a black suit, holding a cane in his hand, wearing gold glasses, and had his hair meticulously combed.
Such an image is dressed like an aristocracy in the upper class of English. He does not hold a cane in his hands because of inconvenience of legs and feet. This is a way for European nobles to show their identity and reflect etiquette. Just like the aristocrats in ancient China, whether they can fight or not, they must wear a sword, which is also a status symbol.
"Who are you?" Lin Tian asked, looking at the man who came out.
"Under Clark, I just saw the two faces having distress and seemed to be in trouble, so I came out and asked if I could help." The man called himself Clark, who was gentle and gentle in his speech.
Lin Tian glanced at Xiao Manxue, and then nodded: "Indeed, we are collecting information for zázhì, but the record of Solinburg sixty years ago seems to be vacant. Also, this town used to have the priesthood Yes, why not now? "
Clark smiled meaningfully, and then said, "Speaking of the maiden, this is a long time ago. It is said that the first generation of the maiden was born hundreds of years ago. One year, Solinburg suffered a natural disaster, which was originally an autumn harvest. Season, but almost nothing. "
"At that time, Solingborg was still a nobleman's fiefdom. The poor harvest of the land means that the nobleman's income has become less. At that time, when people did not understand the sky, they only thought that the gods were punishing them, whether for atonement or for the coming year. A good harvest, when the aristocracy decided to worship the gods. "
"Sacrifice to the gods requires a person who communicates with the gods, and the maiden comes into being. The maiden must be a holy chùnǚ to take on the role. The first generation of the maiden was selected by the nobles from the people of the fiefdoms."
"After the election of the maiden, a grand ritual ceremony was held in the town. Maybe it was the gods who had mercy. After the ritual ceremony, the natural disaster gradually disappeared and the last grain in the town was preserved."
"It ’s amazing to say that since there was a virgin in Solingborg, there has not been such a serious natural disaster. Even if there is a natural disaster, it will not be miserable and there will always be some left for Solingborg to spend. Disaster year. "
"The virgins became important. The first virgins were selected by the nobles from the people to serve as sacrificial priesthoods. Later, the nobles of the fiends were gone, but the tradition of choosing virgins was left over every few days. In the year the people of the town voted for the Virgin. "
"The habit of choosing the maiden has been passed down, and even if people have learned more about it later, their thoughts have also become civilized. Choosing the maiden is still the most solemn and sacred thing in Solingborg."
Clark spoke plainly about the origin of the maiden in Solingborg, but Clark's eyes fluctuated when he said the last sentence, but no one knew what he was thinking inside.
Lin Tian's eyes flashed, then he said, "To be precise, the election of the maiden continued until sixty years ago, and in the following sixty years, until now, no one has been born. You do n’t know what happened 60 years ago that made such an important festival in Solingborg disappear. "
"Oh ..." Clark said with a slight smile. "If the two want to know what happened sixty years ago, they can go to the ancient castle in town and see if there is an answer there."
"Are you ... the new owner of the castle?" Xiao Manxue said suddenly.
Clark turned and looked at Xiao Manxue with a slight smile. "This xiaojie is really smart. You guessed it right. I just bought the castle some time ago. If two people are free, the lavender festival can come to the castle tomorrow. Be a guest and witness a grand holiday ceremony. "
"There is still work to do at home, and the two of them take a look slowly, and I am lost." Clark owed a little, politely, and turned to leave the third floor of the library.
"Lin Tian, ​​can you see what's wrong with this man?" Xiao Manxue asked when Clark left.
Lin Tian shook his head and frowned, saying: "I can't see it, and it feels wrong is his style. The style of holding a cane is the behavioral style of medieval nobles. Now even nobles, no one does it."
"I also feel that this person is strange, but I don't see why it is strange. However, I noticed a detail in the literature. The Virgin of Solingborg is not a lifetime, usually three to five years, and Humanely, the maiden can marry and have children after her term ends. However, Clark is right, the virgin must be holy, and there must be no personal feelings during the term. "Xiao Manxue said strangely.
"It's a strange priesthood." Lin Tian shook his head and couldn't understand it at all, because Huaxia didn't have such a priestly priesthood. He had to say, "It seems that there is nothing tonight, let's go back."
"Okay, let's go back first. I'm also worried about coming out for a long time. Julie can't help Jinlis. If he encourages the team to act without permission, the accident will be bad." Xiao Manxue nodded and put the books in the bookshelf back, Lin Tian walked out of the third floor together.
When he came to the first floor, the librarian looked up and said with a smile: "Did you find the materials you want?"
"It's almost ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I have a question to ask Mr., is the owner of the castle in the town called Clark?" Lin Tian asked politely.
"Yes, it's Clark. I just saw him go out. I heard that the old owner of the castle rarely lived in the castle, so he sold the castle to Clark." The administrator replied.
"Oh, Clark is an outsider. What do you think of the new owner of this castle?" Lin Tian asked again.
The administrator laughed and said happily, "The old castle is a sign of our town. Before, we were worried that the new owner had a weird temper. That was not good news for us, because the largest lavender was planted in the old castle. On the ground, if the new owner wouldn't let us host a lavender festival there, things would be troublesome. "
"However, this worry is unnecessary. Mr. Clark is very nice and easy-going. He just said hello to me just now." The administrator smiled easily.
Saying hello to you thinks that he is a good person, and you are too easy to be satisfied. Lin Tian is funny, but he did n’t tell you the truth, thank you and left the library with Da Xiaojie.
The way back was still quiet, but nothing happened on the way, Lin Tian and Xiao Manxue smoothly returned to the Maple Leaf Hotel.
Lin Tian raised her hand and was about to knock on the door, but the door opened, and there was a wrinkled old lady standing behind the door.
"Mrs. Mary, are you going out?" Xiao Manxue asked strangely.
"In the evening, where can an old lady go, I just wait for you to come back and see you, I'm relieved, oh, recently, the town is not safe at night," sighed Mary.
