Chapter 84: The Sea Empire's Lotus Fire Festival
"I'm Doctor Tuo, the medical officer can come and go as he pleases, and this is also given by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It can't be said that I don't abide by the rules of the palace. Xin'er proudly flipped out Doctor Tuo's jade card.
Rui'er was originally a tendon, listening to Xin'er say this, yes, as a first-level official of the Xuanyi Bureau, one of the four major departments of the Sea Empire, Doctor Tuo can definitely enter and exit freely.
"Wow, Crown Princess, you are so amazing!" Rui'er sincerely admired.
"Haha, take me to play. Xin'er was very happy.
As soon as the two of them summed up, they packed up some silver taels and left the palace happily.
In order to make Tuo Zhixin have a long memory, Haoye has not gone to Hengruo Hall to find Tuo Zhixin in the past few days, but he who has just entered the cave room with Tuo Zhixin in advance to spend the candle night, but he is on fire, and the anger is difficult to extinguish.
The taste of ecstasy made him toss and turn, unable to sleep at night, and he wondered if this was punishing Xin'er or punishing himself?
I guess it's him who is looking for hardships.
The Scales Hall was no longer available, and he returned to the place where he cultivated his spiritual power when he was a child-the Cold Chime Pond, and in the thousands of feet of biting cold water, he cultivated wildly.
A faint layer of light emanated from his body, like a ball of light enveloping him, countless small droplets of water emerged one after another, condensed around him, and powerful spiritual power flowed like a spring along the spiritual aperture around him, intertwining with each other.
Xin'er and Rui'er went out of the palace gate, called a beast cart, and went straight to the Thorn Lotus Valley.
When I got out of the car, I was full of young people in pairs, so it was so lively! The roadside was full of small shops buying and selling trinkets and snacks, swaying in the sea like jellyfish.
In front of him, a vast expanse of soft pale red seagrass lined the two sides, and the wide, grass-covered waterway in the middle led to a mountain-like place, surrounded by corals and sea rocks.
When I got closer, the boulder at the door was engraved with the words "Thorn Lotus Valley".
Xin'er and Rui'er are both teenage girls, both of them are children's hearts, and Xin'er doesn't pay attention to the level of dignity and inferiority, so the two of them went in with their hands.
When you enter the valley, you will feel like you have entered a green forest, the ground is covered with fireflies and seaweed, and there are tall thorny lotus trees everywhere.
Xin'er looked up happily, and saw that the thorny lotus tree seemed to have no leaves, and the huge brown trunk stretched outward with many branches covered with sharp wooden thorns, and the branches were covered with many thorn-like flowers.
The wooden thorns on the outside of the ball looked very hard, and the inside was covered with pale green petals, which were shaped like lotus flowers.
It's just that the jasper-like translucent petals are larger and thicker, and the center of the petals has a swaying turquoise light.
So many prickly lotus trees gather here, reflecting the sparkling blue waves in the valley.
"Wow! it's so beautiful. Is this the case all year round?" said Xin'er.
"The slave maid is also the first time to see it, I heard Brother Mian say that although this thorny lotus does not wither, but the brilliance in the heart of the flower only blooms for twelve days a year, so the twelve days of the year are designated as the Lotus Fire Festival. ”
Under the reflection of the green waves of the lotus fire, the childish Rui'er felt a little delicate when she said these words. Xin'er suddenly found that Rui'er seemed to have added a lot of daughter's posture.
Xin'er looked around, and saw that there were many couples or young boys and girls in front of each tree, or cruising in the sea to find the thorn lotus they wanted to pick, or using a red rope to hang the bright red kernel with the carved name on the thorn lotus tree.
Xin'er was about to get closer to see what was going on, and Rui'er said, "Crown Princess, Brother Mian said that you can only see the Holy Lotus when you enter the third valley mouth." ”
"Oh, and so much. Let's go, then. When Xin'er heard this, she walked forward with Rui'er.
Entering the second valley mouth, an orange light covered the sky, and on the lotus fire tree with branches next to the branches, there were thorny orange lights, which became more and more intoxicating under the ripples of the sea.
"Rui'er, you see that the lotus tree here seems to have longer and more thorns than the first gate. Xin'er said curiously.
"Crown Princess, you are really careful, Brother Mian said that these thorn lotuses must exert spiritual power to pick, and the more you go to the back, the more difficult it is to pick the thorn lotus, so there are very few people who go to the third valley gate to pick the holy fire lotus. ”
"Oh, let's go to the third gate. When Xin'er heard this, she took Rui'er's hand and glided up.
The two shuttled among the soft seaweed, and gently stopped in front of the third gate, the grass at their feet bloomed with small light blue umbrella-like flowers, clustered on the sea stone side of the valley gate, Xin'er looked around, and sure enough, there were far fewer people here.
Before the person entered the valley, he saw the red light shooting out from the valley, Xin'er pulled Rui'er and flew in, wow!
The thorny lotus flowers hanging on the branches flickered with red light like tongues of fire, like lanterns flying in the wind, and the brilliance of the sky flew down.
"Is this the Holy Fire Lotus?" Xin'er looked up and basked in the light of the beautiful lotus fire, and in the sea, wisps of light flowed through her excited smiling face.
"See the crown princess. Xin'er was enjoying the beautiful scenery, but she heard Mianxing's voice in her ears, and when she looked down, it was Mianxing who came up and knelt down.
"Hey, why are you here? Xin'er wondered.
"Humble duty, humble duty asked Miss Rui'er to pick lotus flowers. Mianxing, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, scratched his head a little embarrassed.
"Oh, oh, oh......" Xin'er finally suddenly realized, it turned out that Mianxing had made an appointment with Rui'er to meet at the third gate, no wonder Rui'er kept rushing forward when she arrived here.
Rui'er was so ashamed that her face was red at the moment and she hung her head.
"Ahem, ahem, Rui'er, you girl, don't make it clear. Xin'er found herself as embarrassed as them at the moment, so in order to relieve her embarrassment, she looked around.
This look, don't worry, who are the two people on the other side?
A graceful man dressed in a white brocade dress, holding a few strings of snacks in his hand, was about to hand him a girl dressed in an intricate pattern of rose-red peonies beside him.
"Yao'er, you taste the conch sauce meat, this one is delicious. Leng Xuan smiled earnestly.
"Don't, who wants to eat these things outside. Yan Leyao looked disgusted.
That girl, Xin'er is very familiar with, it is Yan Leyao who has fought with herself!
Since it collided, it was impossible to pretend not to see it, Xin'er took the initiative to meet it and said, "General Leng." ”
"Crown Princess, uh...... , the last general has seen the crown princess. Leng Xuan saw Xin'er at first glance, holding a skewer in her hand, and felt quite embarrassed.
Yan Leyao turned her face away, according to etiquette, she should see the crown princess, but if she doesn't follow the etiquette, it is reasonable, although Haoye has announced that she wants to marry Xin'er as the crown princess, but after all, it is the prince's order and not the emperor's order.
What's more, the two of them haven't gotten married yet.
