Chapter 191 When he came, the city was full of wind and rain
For the Yue people living on this continent, the word "Wang Ting" has two meanings.
One refers to the entire Yue family, a collection of dozens of tribes.
Second, in a narrow sense, it refers to the royal capital that resides under the "moon tree". Compared with the slightly more formal title of "king court", people tend to call it "the city that never sleeps."
Every month the people of the tribe walked out of the city that never sleeps, but unfortunately only a few of them can stay there, and most of them are adopted by the families of various ministries after their birth.
But even so, the city built under the moon tree and never dark is still the place that all the people look forward to.
The huge moon tree soars into the clouds, and the spreading white canopy propped up the entire sky. When night falls, the brilliance released by the entire huge tree is enough to illuminate the city.
Whenever it rains and snows, the crown of the moon tree will automatically shake and shrink, just like a torn barrier, letting the wind and snow come in and moisturize the ground under the tree.
Especially in this midsummer season.
The cloud that condensed yesterday finally poured heavy rain at night, and the squally showers passed through the gaps between the branches and wetted the whole city that never sleeps.
When it was dawn the next day, the clouds disappeared and the rain settled, and the whole city was completely renewed. When the sun fell, it became more lively.
When the lively breath and noise crossed the palace wall, into the palace garden, and got into the window of a beautiful palace.
When she fell in the ears of a girl with gloomy and weak eyebrows sitting in front of the window, her voice was already very small, but she still pricked her ears and listened carefully for a while, and asked:
"It seems very lively outside today, did something happen?"
Inside the hall, a tall, black maid with a messy hair came over and explained:
"Should be preparing for the moon worship."
"Ah, isn't it? I almost forgot. I stayed in the palace for a long time and I can't remember the days." The weak girl in the wheelchair smiled embarrassedly, and then pulled the cover on her knees. Thin blanket.
The mirror on the side of the wall reflected her smaller body than her peers—once, this body was small but never stopped, full of vitality, as if it contained infinite energy.
But since she was injured in an accident and couldn't stand up, Han Ye, the maid-in-waiting, has witnessed her getting weaker and weaker. From a young girl who couldn't get off, she became a patient sitting in a wheelchair all day.
Thinking of this, the tall maid named Han Ye blurted out:
"His Royal Highness, I heard that this year's Lunar Worship Ceremony has rehearsed a new dance. I will take you to see it before the first performance."
Sai Sai smiled in the wheelchair, brushed a strand of silver hair hanging from his forehead with his hand, and said casually:
"Wow, that's a deal."
It's just that those eyes suddenly darkened.
Han Ye realized that he had said the wrong thing. Before he was injured, one of His Highness's favorite things was dancing. He once even disguised his identity to participate in the selection of the Moon Worship Dance Group.
Although she was recognized in the final moments of the final, it has also become one of her feats.
To this day, that set of Chinese clothes and dancing shoes were still hidden in the cabinet of the room. Han Ye tried to put them elsewhere several times, but was stopped.
The moon girl sitting in the chair seemed to sense the emotional changes of the maid, and took her hand and smiled:
"Okay, it doesn't matter, I'm not a kid anymore, even if my legs are still good, my father won't allow me to be on stage. It's fine now."
But even though he said that, he couldn't hide the loss in his eyes.
"His Royal Highness, the king has already ordered a reward to recruit the sacred doctors of the entire royal court, maybe..." Han Ye couldn't help but said.
Se Se shook his head and interrupted:
"The City of Evernight has gathered the best physicians in the entire royal court. They can't do anything about it. What can other departments do? Don't comfort me, maybe this is my destiny."
"His Royal Highness..." What Han Ye should say for a while, she was not good at words, and she knew in her heart that what Sese said was correct.
The notice has been issued for many days, and it is also a manifestation that no one has been called.
It's not that the reward is not enough, but almost no one thinks that they can beat the healers of Everbright City, and it is extremely risky to diagnose and treat the princess. If something goes wrong, the consequences can be imagined.
Thinking of this, Han Ye couldn't help sighing in her heart. Immediately, she heard the door suddenly pushed open behind her.
A tall middle-aged man in luxurious robes walked in and said:
"If no one can cure it, I will try to pray for the blessing of the moon tree at the moon worship."
"King." Han Ye hurriedly bowed to salute, and Sasa, who was sitting in the wheelchair, turned his head, looked at his father, who was the chief patriarch, and shook his head, "Father, don't. How can such things bother the tree gods? By……"
In the second half of the sentence, the melancholy petite girl didn't say anything, but both Han Ye and the big patriarch who looked deplored understood.
As the sacred tree of the entire ethnic group, in the long years, it rarely reveals its power.
Even with the long life of the Moon Clan and the connection between bloodlines, it is difficult to truly communicate with the sacred tree. As for the blessings that only exist in the legend, how easy is it to say?
At least, since the birth in Dasaisai, the moon worship ceremony has been held many times, but the moon tree has never been seen abnormally, and the words of the big clan war are only comforting.
The atmosphere was heavy for a while.
The quiet inside the palace is in sharp contrast with the excitement outside the palace walls.
However, at this moment, without warning, suddenly, a strange howling suddenly appeared in the sky, and the entire huge moon tree that covered the city of Evernight suddenly flickered abnormally.
"what happened?"
"The Tree God?"
In the room, everyone's expressions changed. The chief patriarch stepped back to the courtyard. Han Ye also hurriedly pushed the wheelchair and walked out of the house with a plug. Then he looked up, his eyes full of consternation.
I saw that the Moon Tree, which stood on the ground and had not changed for thousands of years, seemed to sense something at this moment, and the branches and leaves all over his body trembled slightly!
Outside the palace wall.
In the huge city that never sleeps.
On the wide and clean streets, the ground is still wet, occasionally, concave and uneven, puddles in the sun reflect the huge canopy of trees and the blue planet in the crevices.
People from the tribe are crowded.
But at this moment, everyone was attracted by the movement of the moon tree, stopped, and stared at the trembling canopy in amazement, watching the falling leaves, falling from high in the sky, little by little, to the ground.
The heavy rain stopped at first, but another rain fell.
Inside the palace wall.
In the palace garden, sitting in a wheelchair, a silver-haired girl wearing soft silk stared at the falling leaves in the sky, letting the leaves fall on the thin blanket in front of her, her heart was full of surprise:
"It's still far from autumn and winter, why... the leaves fell."
...
...
at the same time.
South Gate of Everlasting City.
Sitting in the huge vehicle, Qingkong, who was carrying his luggage, also stood up and looked at the special rain with surprise in his eyes:
"Teacher, teacher, look, the moon tree has fallen leaves! This is still summer!"
Crowded in a corner of the carriage, Lin Tuo, who seemed to be asleep but not asleep, heard the call, raised his eyes and looked down, his tone was calm:
"Be calm, there is nothing surprising about this."
As he said, he glanced at the other passengers in the big carriage and the expressions of the Yue people in the city, frowning slightly:
Could it be that... this stupid tree recognizes me?
Five days have passed since he was boarding with the identity of "Shanhai".
He also took the blue sky and used the accumulated savings to ride this kind of transportation similar to a horse-like animal to the Wangting Capital City.
In the past five days, most of the time was spent in the car, passing several cities and post stations along the way, which really gave him a taste of the exotic customs.
But most of the time, Lin Tuo used to organize the alchemy knowledge system that he was going to spread. Although this body was very weak, his "inhuman" mental power was still retained.
I memorized the necessary information in the Lishan Study, and then slowly sorted it out. In five days, I basically finished this part of the work, and I also designed a "treatment" plan.
At this moment, as he arrived at the Wang Court, he finally recovered his thoughts from his knowledge and was ready to implement the next plan.
As for Moon Tree's abnormality, it only lasted for a short while, and then returned to normal, Lin Tuo didn't care.
...
After getting out of the car, Lin Tuo walked along the street for a while with a blue sky that looked like he had never seen the world before, and according to the purchased map, he came to an administrative mansion and informed him of his intention.
The Yue clan who was in charge of the reception was extremely surprised, and looked at the decent pair of masters and apprentices with suspicion, and then politely settled the two in an official residence, asking them to wait patiently for the transmission from the palace.
When I left, I was muttering with my colleagues, and there was something wrong with looking at them.
"Teacher, they seem to be talking about us."
Qing Kong, who combed her broken hair as much as possible, looked a little nervous, and stood awkwardly at the door of this house, his hands tightening in his salute.
Lin Tuo, wearing a "mountain and sea" waistcoat, stood aside with his hands behind him, and said: "It's not like, I'm talking about us."
"Teacher, did you hear? What are they talking about?" Xiao Qingkong asked curiously.
Lin Tuo turned around and walked to the courtyard of the official residence, and then said:
"Say you look very long-winded."
"Fart, I haven't spoken all the time, okay, how can they tell?" Qingkong took a sip, then followed the teacher suspiciously, and asked, "What did you say?"
Lin Tuoman didn't care: "Say I don't have a tail."
Qingkong was startled, carrying his luggage, and suddenly stamped his right foot, complaining:
"Look at what I said at home? You should buy one!"
Lin Tuoxin said that with human aesthetics, it would be more like a pervert if you really inserted a fake one. He rolled his eyes, ignored Qingkong's complaint, and took a rest.
It's afternoon.
A group of people appeared outside the official residence, and Lin Tuo also saw the maid who claimed to have come from the palace to take care of his Royal Highness.
"It's you, claiming to be able to heal your highness's leg injury?"
Han Ye looked at the incomplete Moon Clan standing in front of him with some suspicion, and he didn't believe it.
The look in his eyes seemed to say:
You can't even solve your own problems, how can you have the courage to say that you can heal Your Highness?
In the next second, Han Ye was a little surprised to hear "Shan Hai" lightly smiling and saying:
"Correct a word, I can't cure her."
Han Ye's face was stagnant, a little confused, and a little angry.
Then, Lin Tuo said with a smile:
"But I can make her stand up again."
