Chapter 192 This is the power of alchemy

...

About two hours later, when the sun was slanting west, the inspected Lin Tuo and Qingkong master and apprentice finally stepped into the palace wall under the leadership of Han Ye and the other guards.

The two also saw the appearance of the palace for the first time.

For Lin Tuo, this is a large building complex full of exotic customs, with wood and stone structure, symmetrically distributed, the roof of the palace is flat, the pillars and eaves are gorgeous and unusual.

Flowers on both sides of the neat palace roads are scattered with fountains and pools, and butterflies are flying. They are not as grand and majestic as the oriental palaces of human beings.

The entire palace is like a large garden, but in the details of the building, it has surprisingly fine details.

"Teacher, look at the flowers carved on the house, they are too detailed."

As he walked, Xiao Qingkong's eyes widened and looked around for a while, leaning to Lin Tuo a little awkwardly, and whispered.

The latter nodded, and heard the tall maid called Han Ye in front of him:

"The architecture and layout of the palace are the masterpieces of the masters of the past. This area is just a corner. If you can successfully heal your Highness, you may be eligible to enter and leave the palace.

At that time, you will find that the detailed design styles of the courtyards are different from each other. The entire palace has gathered the essence of various art genres, and the most rare thing is that it is unified as a whole."

In Han Ye's narrative, there is no intention to show off or arrogant emotions.

If there is, it is only with the inherent character of the residents of Everbright City.

Probably in any civilization, the life in the core area will have a subtle mentality of "at the feet of the emperor, higher than the rest of the area".

However, these simple narratives have already made Qingkong listen to admiration, only to feel that the experience of the past many years is not as good as today.

As Han Ye spoke, she looked at the two with the corner of her eye. Qingkong's performance did not surprise her, but the doctor named "Shanhai" was a little weird.

From the appearance of the opponent, it can be seen that he has indeed never entered the palace before. This is not like a fake, but it is not half surprised or restrained.

Not to mention panic.

During the walk, the unintentional tolerance revealed... If you have to describe it, you can probably only use the word "appreciation"!

Yes, he is admiring the palace!

Han Ye was taken aback by the thought that came out of her heart, and shook her head, but the gaze towards Lin Tuo changed from being mostly suspicious to a little more trusting...

People with this kind of tolerance should have some skills, right?

Otherwise, it is impossible to be so indifferent.

But I don't know that for Lin Tuo, he really has a feeling of admiring his garden.

When the group of people passed through an arch and entered another quiet and elegant courtyard, Lin Tuo finally saw his goal.

In the small courtyard, several houses stood lightly, and a wheelchair was placed under a tree of unknown species.

A soft cushion was erected on the back of the chair, and a petite white girl with silver hair was sitting in it, her eyes looking beyond the palace wall, and further away, was the magnificent backbone of the moon tree.

"His Royal Highness, this is the doctor who has been called."

Han Ye salutes, the girl called Sese finally recovered, twisted her wheelchair, turned around, looked at a pair of masters and apprentices with some surprise, her eyes fell on Lin Tuo who was wearing shabby but clean clothes, and smiled. :

"Sorry for the physical inconvenience, I can't get up to meet."

"His Royal Highness does not need to be like this." Lin Tuo placed his right arm in front of him as a courtesy according to his memory, and at the same time looked at the patient curiously...petite, weak, quiet, calm...sorrowful, this is what he perceives. First impression.

At the same time, the field of vision stayed a bit on the other's silver hair.

According to the memory of "Shanhai", he knew that besides military force, wealth, and power, the internal hierarchical system of the Yue clan was largely derived from the purity of blood.

Yes, this thing also exists for a group of beings derived from moon trees!

Just like humans, the offspring will inherit the genes of their ancestors to varying degrees. The Moon Clan is reflected in the correlation between the bloodline in the body and the Moon Tree. The most obvious feature is hair color.

The closer it is to the bright white of the moon tree, the more pure it represents. The silver hair color of a young girl indicates that its blood is extremely pure. No wonder it can stand out from the thousands of the same batch of newborns and be adopted by the royal family...

Correspondingly, the hair color of the maid Chang Hanye next to her was not as pure as it was, and it was more complicated. In the social system of the Moon Clan, her congenital status was low.

As for the body of "Mountain and Sea" inherited by Lin Tuo, the purity of blood is at the middle and upper level. If there is no "mutilation", it will probably not live in distant tribes, but will be adopted by residents of Everbright City...

With a lot of information flowing in his mind, Lin Tuo heard the girl in the wheelchair curiously saying: "I heard Han Ye said that your Excellency came from a long way from the Dongsen tribe."

"Indeed." Lin Tuo said calmly.

"Ah, that's really hard work. The boats and cars are exhausted, so I should rest in the official residence for a few days before entering the palace." Sai Sai said, a trace of apology appeared in his eyes.

Han Ye next to him did not speak, but thought that His Highness would still have a good temper after all.

A low-level physician with a physical disability, if it weren't for "surrendering to the doctor", the master and apprentice would never have the opportunity to step into the palace in this life, and they have not shown their true ability, why be so polite...

At least, you have to wait for the other party to really come up with clever means.

Lin Tuo smiled and said:

"It's not necessary, I think, your Highness should not want to stand up a few days later."

Sese was startled, his eyes showed a little brilliance:

"The doctor hasn't diagnosed and treated my illness with his own eyes. Could it be that my leg can be cured?"

Originally, Sese didn't hold out hope, receiving Lin Tuo, on the one hand, was Han Ye's persistence, on the other hand, it was also out of etiquette.

If there are others, it is the boredom of being trapped in the palace for a long time, thinking about seeing outsiders, at this moment, listening to Lin Tuo said this, but a little nervous.

Immediately, Lin Tuo shook his head.

Sai Sai was at a loss, and listened to Han Ye with a weird expression on the side: "This person said that his medical skills can't heal your highness's leg injury, but...you can make your highness stand up again."

Sese was startled, becoming more puzzled, wondering what is the reason for this?

The guards and maids guarding the side also cast their gazes at Lin Tuo one after another, and Xiao Qingkong's face turned pale in the face of the crowd's searching or angry gaze.

I thought that the teacher would not play off... This is a princess, how can I fool it?

Turning his head to look at Lin Tuo, he heard the latter smile and say:

"I need some materials, and a set of daily clothes for His Royal Highness, and a quiet and undisturbed studio."

Everyone looked at each other, and Han Ye deliberately scolded and questioned. She really didn't like the mysterious appearance of this "mountain and sea", thinking that if the patriarch was present, you would dare to sell it like this.

Then, listening to the girl in the wheelchair curiously answered:

"Okay. Han Ye, what the doctor needs, you go and prepare."

After a pause, she hesitated: "If the medicinal materials are too scarce..."

Lin Tuo raised his hand to interrupt Cese's words and smiled:

"It's not scarce. I only need some fallen branches of the moon tree and a part of the moon tree sap, nothing more."

...

...

As Lin Tuo said, his request is not difficult to meet, it can even be said to be simply too much!

Although Han Ye was full of doubts, she arranged a house in the side hall and delivered materials, and even personally took guards outside to "protect" to prevent interference.

Lin Tuo didn't care about her careful thoughts, and immediately took Qingkong into the work room and got busy.

Soon, in the working room of the small courtyard of the palace, there was the sound of knocking, making the expression of the cold night guarding outside the door constantly changing. I wanted to see it, but worried that it would affect the final result , Endured it.

Unconsciously, the sunny day passed.

After nightfall, the radiance of the moon tree illuminates the courtyard, but because of the walls, oil lamps are also lit in the house.

This time, Han Ye saw the silhouettes busy at the table more clearly, sometimes sitting at the table fiddling with something, sometimes sitting still, and even lying down. When the dinner was brought, he just opened the door and took it. Went in.

In a blink of an eye, it was dawn.

During this period, even the great patriarch who had finished handling political affairs came over for a short time and took a look, but he did not alarm anyone and left quietly.

Waiting for the next day, even Qingkong was driven out and guarded at the door. No one knew what Shanhai was up to except for delivering meals regularly.

"It's not like making medicine anyway." Han Ye thought, looking at Qingkong, who was sitting at the door with a grieved expression, and wanted to interrogate, the boy covered his mouth before she spoke.

It meant that the master wouldn't tell me that it was absolutely impossible to pry open his own mouth, so angry Han Ye had to tell the guards to stare, and leave angrily.

Qing Kong, who was so scared sitting on the steps, shrank his neck, turned his head to look at the face of the room, an expression of worry and doubt appeared.

He found that he couldn't understand.

Others don't know the details, but he can guess something. Since entering last night, the teacher drew a few sketches with pen and paper, asking him to help cut the materials into different shapes.

Although most of them are weird and not useful, they can probably guess some of them.

In his opinion, the teacher seemed to want to make a machine to assist the princess in walking, which surprised and confused him.

Surprisingly, after living with Shanhai for many years, he has never seen him have this craft.

What is puzzled is how can this idea be achieved?What machine can help people walk?There is no need to make a crutches, and I am afraid that both my master and apprentice will be smashed to death by the tall maid.

In addition, with the contact over the past few days, a doubt has grown in Qing Kong's heart. He found that his teacher has become a little stranger.

This does not refer to the craftsmanship that is “taught without a teacher”, but rather the changes in temperament and demeanor. In the past, the mountains and seas were impoverished, and the expressions were always gloomy and shivering because of disabilities, and they did not like to show them to outsiders.

Seeing a big man, he is never better than him...

But in the past few days, especially after entering the city that never sleeps, Shanhai has become self-confident and calm, and the haze has been swept away.

This made Qingkong both pleasantly surprised and worried. He couldn't figure out which part of the problem went wrong. Fortunately, Master's attitude towards himself has not changed, but...

"Teacher, can you figure it out? If you fail, so many people guard it, it's not easy to run away."

In the mood of worry, the day passed in an instant.

When it dawned on the third day, the crack of the door opened, and Lin Tuo with a tired face came out, only to say "Please come over, your highness".

This caused a panic in the quiet courtyard. The guards outside the door hurriedly notified the news. Ten minutes later, Han Ye pushed the plug to the door.

"His Royal Highness can come in. The rest are waiting outside. It will take a while."

Lin Tuo frowned as he looked at the more and more Yue people gathered in the courtyard and said.

"How can this be?" Han Ye was a little angry, but was held down by the silver-haired girl in the wheelchair. Today's plugged, his eyes were full of tension and expectation, "Listen to Dr. Shanhai, if something happens, I will call you."

"His Royal Highness, but... okay." Han Ye still wanted to stop, but was finally defeated in the gaze of Sese.

Lin Tuo gave Lin Tuo a vicious look, and then suddenly reached out his hand and grabbed the nervous-looking Qingkong neck collar, pulled him over, and said:

"It's okay if you are treated normally, if you dare to do anything wrong..."

Lin Tuo's tired eyes suddenly overflowed with a smile, took over the job of pushing the wheelchair, and pushed the plug into the house, while saying:

"Qingkong arrived at you."

Qingkong: "..."

So, why do you want me to pay if you fail???

In the eyes of Qingkong's collapse, the door closed with a slam, blocking the line of sight, a group of waiters in the courtyard nervously gathered, and the atmosphere was inexplicably quiet.

Qingkong didn't say a word even more, looking at the sword on Hanye's waist, then at the door of the room, praying for the blessing of the moon tree in his heart.

As time went by, I could only hear the small conversations from time to time in the house, but I couldn't hear clearly.

Five minutes passed.

Ten minutes passed.

Fifteen minutes passed.

The atmosphere gradually became anxious, there was no more sound in the room, and the air became more and more dead, but the crowd came more and more.

At first, it was just a waiter. Later, there were other princes and princes. Then, when the grand patriarch, who was dressed in Chinese clothes and an aristocratic suit, also came to this courtyard, the crowds all saluted:

"king."

"What's the situation?" The chief patriarch waved his hand and asked in a hoarse voice.

He just ended the royal court council. There were open and secret struggles among the clans in the lower part of the court. There was also a herd of beasts on the border of the royal court. It was the time for headaches. Therefore, it was much later to get the news.

"His Royal Highness has been in for half a month." Someone said.

"There has been no movement." A tall Moon Clan teenager said nervously, "Father, should I go in and take a look?"

"The teacher said not to disturb, otherwise it will affect the treatment!" Qingkong, who was standing next to Han Ye as a hostage, also gave up, and said aloud.

The chief patriarch glanced at the young man, fell silent, and said, "Wait, if there is still no movement, then..."

"Squeaky-"

At this moment, the sound of the door leaf hinged and pulled attracted everyone's attention. In the small courtyard, dozens of eyes were cast at the closed door at the same time.

Wearing a plain robe, Lin Tuo, who was tired and sweating on his forehead, walked out, stunned, and said, "There are so many people."

"What's the situation in Sese?" The chief patriarch said busy.

Lin Tuo looked at the other party, and probably also judged his identity as the king of the moon clan. He was hesitating what kind of attitude he should use, and he heard a surprised cry from the girl behind him:

"Father, are you here too?"

Lin Tuo's heart moved, smiling silently, just leaning to the side.

Then, one after another looked at the door.

I saw that the petite silver-haired girl was standing quietly inside the door, her face flushed, she looked extremely excited, clenched her fists, glanced at Lin Tuo, and took a step forward in the other's encouraging eyes.

Two steps.

Three steps.

Every time I took a step, there was a crisp metal click.

The brilliant sunlight passed through the stretched branches of the moon tree and turned into beams of light, sprinkled into the palace wall, illuminating the plug, and also illuminated her under the skirt, fixed on her feet, two reflecting dark colors Glorious mechanical structure.

It is a pair of silver-white prostheses.

Or, to be precise, it should be called a simple exoskeleton based on magic power developed by alchemy.

"Click, click..."

Under the eyes of everyone, Sasa walked out of the house, his steps were unfamiliar from the beginning, and he quickly became proficient, and even finally jogged and came to the chief patriarch:

"Father, I can walk again."

In her tone, it was hard to hide the excitement.

And the big patriarch, who has a tall body and a sterling silver hair, also opened his mouth with tears in his eyes, but after all he did not lose his stance under everyone's gaze. He just trembled and said, "Okay."

He then forced his gaze to Lin Tuo, who was standing under the eaves and watching this scene with a smile, and asked, "How... how did this happen?"

Lin Tuo looked calm, smiled and said:

"alchemy."

"This is the power of alchemy."
