The third market day was the big day of the Kitchen Temple Festival. Karabis wisely painted the "Fight-free" sign in a dark corner in front of the holy house the day before, and carefully sorted out the internal environment. The folding bed he entrusted the carpenter to put it away and turned into a cabinet-like thing; he put all the plasters, spices, candles, olive oil and other things he had stocked up in the hidden cabinet; there were also several hired children with Cupid's wings (specially holding candles and lanterns to guide the couples), and he also distributed ten Sethtues each, and sent them home happily, and they all wanted to continue working at him after the festival.

So, on this day, the holy library of the Kitchen God Temple was very quiet. Apart from Karabis standing at the door, there was no one in it. Li Xilia, who brought the other five virgins to get the holy artifacts, saw the whole scene in an orderly and meticulous manner, and a satisfied expression appeared on her harsh face. She took out a small box and said that it was your salary for the three market days, a total of 300 Seths. In order to commend your Karabis' hard work, she specially added the full number.

Humph, I have earned 3,000 yuan in this period of time and I have withdrawn from the senile world. I don’t know if you, a mature woman, know what happened all day in Saint Curry. But Karabis showed an extremely Surprise expression on his face, and took the money box with his trembling hands, and said that he would do his best to serve the Virgin and the Kitchen God in the future.

Li Xilia nodded and instructed the rest of the virgins, including the young Zeno, to carry various holy artifacts. They would hold a memorial ceremony on Capitole Mountain tonight to the early morning to seek the health and stability of the Roman city-state.

After sending these virgins away, Karabis took a few deep breaths, and after work, he walked to the cemetery at the foot of Mount Evandini, where Milu and the other legion veterans were going to hold a monument erecting ceremony for the deceased.

There, everyone was wearing rough mourning clothes, and Karabis was no exception. He surrounded the carved stone tablet with sadness to commemorate the years he had lived with the deceased. Karabis was really lying in a pit with this guy who was bargaining with Charon on the Santu River, but he could only lower his head and say nothing.

Just as the funeral was over, Karabis suddenly walked to the tombstone and said to everyone: "Where are your pensions for serving the Legion? Where are the land?"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what the free man wanted to say, but the fact he mentioned was in front of him. The meager pension had already been spent. Some of the land that was resettled was cancelled for no reason due to the internal struggle of the Senate, and the other part of the land had been sold out. They were all rootless duckweed in the Roman city. Karabis pointed to the tombstone of the deceased and shouted: "Do you also want to leave the world like this one, not even a monument marking his life's journey when you leave the world?!"

"Stop meddling in other people's business. Although you have some money, you are always just a free citizen. We are famous Roman citizens." One of the veterans felt that their self-esteem was hurt and boycotted Karabis.

Calabis imitated Lukulas and put his hand on his chest, saying, "Yes, I am indeed just a liberated man, but I can see the wealth contained in the city of Rome. You hate the aristocratic and extravagant, you hate them for three thousand or five thousand drachmas in one supper, you hate them for rewarding tens of thousands of Sesdes to the sword slaves, you hate them for spending dozens or even hundreds of Tarantes to build a garden villa - but have you ever thought about where they spent such a huge wealth? Yes, why can't they flow to our pockets? I mean, we have all served in the Sula Legion, and are comrades in a broad sense, why can't we unite, abandon the old ideas, and cut off our own piece of our own in this big meal plate in Rome."

A crowd of dozens of veterans shouted, and many people protested dissatisfiedly that since ancient times, only citizens could improvise speeches, and it was not your turn to be a free and presumptuous person.

Just as the noise was quarrel, Milu's majestic voice sounded: "Karabis is right. Even if he is an alien, why don't we restore the ancient Roman beliefs of fides, cooperate with him and do something!" After that, he took Pope and Tagus and stood on the side of Karabis.

"You are all madmen. Katilin has come to connect with us before and promised that Sula's old veterans, whether in the city of Rome or in the northern Etruscan colony, as long as they can support him in the next year's consul election, he will put on a cloak again and punish the public enemy of the Senate." At this time, a slight veteran shouted, "As long as Katilin comes to power and becomes the consul or Diktudo, he can issue a list of public enemy announcements. We will follow the list and grab the property of the veterans and knights written on it!"

After hearing this, Milu said angrily, "Do you people think that the blood shed in Rome over the past twenty years is not enough? The veteran was still ready to quarrel. Milu said coldly: "Don't forget, twenty years ago, our left-behind non-commissioned officers did something to the slaves who rushed into the city of Rome to burn and kill **." When they heard Milu's words, the veterans shuddered. Milu said the truth: Sula led the army to Greece, Xiaoya went to Mitradati, Sula's

The mortal enemy Qin Na, Mallo took the opportunity to join the contract party to break into Rome. The counterattack caused a bloody storm. Moreover, when Mallo marched, in order to make up for the shortage of the army, he announced the release of all the slaves along the way. Five or six thousand slaves followed him at once. As a result, the slave army arrived in the city and committed all evil, killing and raped people in the street. In the end, Mallo's general One-eyed Long Setuo Uris was furious and led the left-behind non-commissioned officers to surround 4,000 slaves in the square and wiped out them all.

"Go back and tell you Katilin - today, if someone uses public enemies to declare and lynch people at will, I will never let go as I do with the slave army back then!" Milu finally said that at this time, a group of veterans left, and there were about twenty-two or three, still left where they were. They had lost everything. Before their children were sold to slaves by creditors, they would rather believe that Karabis, a free citizen, would bring a turning point to themselves.

Karabis made an impromptu speech and saw more than thirty people (including Milu's companions) willing to obey him. He was not very happy, so he held Milu's hand and shouted: "fides!"

A few days later, the climate of the Apennines had become mild and pleasant. Karabis, Milu and thirty former veterans were wearing shabby legion sweatshirts, carrying flat chisels, rulers, saws, and marching columns, stepping on the streets, walking towards the beautiful scenery of Pulaima...

"Believe in myself and in my opinion, this Milu can dig a tunnel and introduce seawater, fulfill the wishes of Lukulas and Marcos, and make a lot of money, we are the only ones who make a lot of money!" Along the way, Karabis kept cheering himself up.
