Chapter 18: The Ringwrath (2)
A mermaid goddess walked into the hall in a panic, "Princess Qi, there is a place, there is a ......" Her voice paused, as if she was considering the appropriate words. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Princess Ling narrowed her tired eyes slightly, and wondered, "What is the matter with such a spit?" ”
The mermaid's body trembled, and she knelt on the ground, "Please also ask the maid to atone for her sins, and the slave doesn't know how to describe this person, but, but he said...... He said he wanted to meet his mother! ”
Concubine Ling's phoenix eyes swept the maid lightly, her expression was already reproachful, and she said categorically: "It's so quiet in the dead of night...... What's more, he is still an unknown person, and he is not seen in this palace! ”
The maid just replied resignedly, but her body refused to get up, and she said, "This, this ......."
People are most likely to get angry when they are tired, and Concubine Ling's voice suddenly rose an octave, and she scolded: "Jilam, if you have something to say, get out quickly, this palace is already extremely tired, and I don't have time for you to talk about it here!" ”
The mermaid maid called Gillam trembled like chaff, and the blood on her face suddenly receded, she gritted her teeth and plucked up her courage to say: "Niangniang, there is a green spiral beam of light in the sky tonight, it must be a good omen to come to Spirit Island, the slave and maid dare to beg you, see, meet this, this strange late-night visitor......." The mermaid struggled to the end.
Courage is often like that, it's easy to muster up, it's easier to discourage.
In fact, about the strange beam of light in the sky, there is such a saying that there is such an auspicious omen, and Giram has only heard the old people mention it, and now he has seen it for the first time, and he can't tell the truth of the auspicious rays.
The reason why I have to take a huge risk to say it tonight is nothing more than to give myself a chance to make the princess look at her differently.
She secretly pinched a cold sweat in her palms, what is her future future, I am afraid it depends on today's fate.
Concubine Ling slowly got up from the beauty, glanced out of the window, a shining green light on the inky blue night sky, and her lightly outlined eyebrows frowned slightly.
The life of ordinary people can not always go as expected, and the life in this court is even more so, although Princess Ling has a prominent status, but there are many things in court life.
At noon today, she was serving the Spirit King for dinner, as if she had inadvertently mentioned the canonization of the Spirit King, but she didn't want to, but she was categorically blocked back by the Spirit King, and there were two respected Spirit Clan prophets present at that time, and the Spirit Princess suddenly felt that she couldn't hold her face.
From the afternoon to the night, Princess Ling was depressed, almost didn't eat anything, and kept staring at the show of the peonies, embroidering and embroidering, and looking depressed.
When she was young, Concubine Ling seemed to have figured out something, the eyebrows at the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, her slightly gloomy expression eased down, and she smiled and said: "Go and prepare two teas to wake up the gods, this palace wants to see this person!" ”
Before she could finish speaking, she asked, "Which prophet is it?" ”
Gillam secretly sighed in his heart, bit his lower lip and said, "The slave and maid don't know, I saw that this person was surrounded by aura, but he couldn't see the prophet's appearance clearly. ”
Princess Ling's expression was immediately solemn, and she said urgently: "Please!" ”
The mermaid maid folded the lavender carefully, gently put five or six flower buds into the cup, and added two slices of pale yellow lemon, which was a refreshing and bright flower tea with elegant color and a faint lavender fragrance.
The palace lamps were swaying, and he vaguely saw an old man in a gray robe, staggering towards the palace of Princess Ling, and a solid moonlight always shone around him.
The moment his simple cloth shoes stepped into the dormitory, the candles in the hall suddenly went out, and the maids serving in the dormitory all trembled and focused their eyes on this late-night visitor.
The wide gray robe shrouded his figure from top to bottom, so much so that it covered his entire figure and appearance. This kind of weird dress, giving people the first feeling of being more like a wizard.
At this time, Princess Ling was holding lavender flower tea and sipping tea, and when she saw this person coming in a gray robe, her heart was secretly tight, and her upright figure did not move.
In the surrounding air, there was an inexplicable and strange atmosphere.
Princess Ling slowly put down the teacup, deliberately with a dignified smile on her face, and said slowly: "The prophet came to visit late at night, I don't know what the intention is?" The palace is in harmony today, and it can't be greeted in full costume, and I hope the elders don't blame. ”
With that, she turned her eyes to look at Giram standing beside her, and whispered, "Give the prophet a seat for tea!" ”
The gray-robed man was unmoved, and his voice came vaguely from His Highness, and suddenly, there seemed to be a gust of yin wind surging in the dormitory, which made people shudder.
"Do you know the stars tonight?" His voice was hard as iron, and there was no hint of deference or humility.
Princess Ling was stunned by the question, she hid her slightly trembling hands under her sleeve robe, tried her best to hide the fear in her heart, and asked softly, "But is it an auspicious omen?" ”
The gray-robed man stood in the hall, his figure barely moving, and said coldly: "Can you see the shaking light in the night sky?" ”
Princess Ling sat on the high seat, she casually brushed the green silk hanging from her temples, and her phoenix eyes sharply explored the face hidden in the shadow of the hood. After looking at it for a while, to no avail, the princess silently withdrew her gaze, and had to say perfunctorily: "This palace has naturally seen it, but I don't know what the deep meaning is?" ”
"The shape of shaking light is like a dragon and a phoenix dance, the light is magnificent and auspicious and dazzling, and when the stars turn, it has the potential to absorb everything."
The gray-robed man's voice sounded so distant and unreal, as if he had spoken it through someone else's mouth.
The princess slowly thought about it in her heart, it turned out that the green light band that suddenly gathered in the night sky was the shaking light in the gray-robed mouth!
He asked again, "Can you see the twilight star?" ”
The princess's phoenix eyes flashed with thick doubts, and her heart was full of doubts, she sighed politely: "The prophet is well-versed in the past and the present, and the palace is ashamed of itself, so I can only sit in a corner and listen to the prophet's teachings." ”
The gloomy and muffled voice sounded again, "This twilight star appeared at ten o'clock in the twilight, resembling a white dragon winding and circling, born extremely delicate and domineering, and can be called the best among dragons. It's a pity that this star is golden, but the aura is insufficient, and Chenhui is sluggish in the twilight, fearing that it will fall in the sky. ”
Princess Ling's eyes widened in astonishment, and she asked, "Does that prophet have a cure?" ”
A person as smart and shrewd as Princess Yiling would not fail to understand the truth of this, and she knew very well who these two stars represented.
"The stars are turning, and the destiny has been decided. The old man happened to have two spirit stones, and the spirit princess thought that she could understand it, so she bothered to wear one for each of them. One is the icing on the cake, and the other is to save the day. The gray-robed man stretched out his withered palm, his fingers slightly open, and the two rings were shining in the wood-colored palms.
Princess Ling's eyes lit up, she quickly got up, slowly came to the hall with her skirt in her hand, leveled a pair of green hands, and took the two rings in person.
Just as the princess raised her eyes inquiringly, wanting to see the gray-robed man's face up close, the gray hood hung lower, and the aura around her body gradually pressed......
Like a gradually expanding bright air mass, the moment the white light suddenly exploded, the gray-robed figure was merging into the dazzling light, and in the blink of an eye a few times, the figure miraculously disappeared in place.
