Chapter 646: Finding the Roots
Minsa and still recounted one after the other, all the way through the stone screens scattered high and low, and walked deeper behind. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"There is no sound at all, is Aunt Lan here or not?" Still whispered.
"Or else? She has always been afraid of strange places, will she run around? Minsa said.
Again, still pondering.
In order not to worry Aunt Lan, Minsa deliberately chose to sit and chat with Aunt Lan in front of her and Aunt Lan's tent. If Aunt Lan had come out of the tent to look for Minsa, she would have seen it at a glance.
But she didn't look for Minsa, and even quietly ran away without Minsa noticing, I'm afraid she did it intentionally.
"It's just weird, I didn't think much of her, I didn't know she was desperate to come here." Minsa blamed himself very much, for fear that something would happen to Aunt Lan.
"Don't worry, look inside." Again, he said comfortingly.
In the distance, there is finally no longer a stone screen to obstruct it, and the line of sight is broadened, and it can be seen far away at a glance.
Minsa and still Shu saw that in the distant night, a dazzling object suddenly appeared.
At the end of the line of sight, in the vast dark night, there was a sky-high flame, thick and wide, like a wall of fire. The flames in the wall of fire were blazing, and the flames were very fierce, mixed with the crackling sound of firewood, raging as if they were about to lick the canopy, with an indescribable sacred or evil aura.
Minsa and still Shu glanced at each other, and felt in their hearts that it was the center of the temple, and it was most likely the sacred place that once hosted the Qingcheng Spirit Tree.
The two of them flew towards it together, and when they got closer, they found that the wall of fire seemed to be an orange-red flame background, and dozens of bonfires were reflected in the open space in front of the wall of fire. Clusters and clusters, the flames are not vigorous, and they are surrounded by rings from a distance, which seems to correspond to the stars in the night sky.
The footsteps got closer and closer, and I saw the clusters of bonfires, set up on the dark iron frame, very solemn. This cluster is bright, that cluster is dark for a moment, flickering light and dark, and the atmosphere is mysterious.
There was also a crackling sound from the campfire from time to time, and Minsa and still Shu had quietly approached the place.
The footsteps of both of them involuntarily stopped, and the scene they saw in front of them made Minsa cry. She didn't know why she wanted to cry like this, but when she saw such a picture, she couldn't stop crying.
Surrounded by a large bonfire, there is a stone platform that rises gently. The stone platform is wide, and there is a depression in the center where the soil can be seen. And Aunt Lan was curled up and sleeping inside.
She bent her arms and rested on her hands, sleeping soundly. Seeing that her posture was extremely relaxed, and there was a warm smile on her face that Minsa had never seen before.
This scene was still shocking to see, and this scene made him think of the boss lady. I don't know why, seeing Aunt Lan sleeping here like this made me still a little curious, how warm is my mother's embrace?
Minsa wiped away the tears on his face, and walked up to the stone platform with him, and now he could see more clearly that in the center of the depression where Aunt Lan was sleeping, there were still some remnants of the decay of the roots of the trees.
"That's the Spirit Tree?" He still talks to himself, asks and answers himself.
There was silence all around, only the sound of the wind whimpering.
The two approached, and Minsa squatted down, looking at the rotten tree roots, looking at the sleeping Aunt Lan, and couldn't bear to wake her up. If possible, she feels most at ease here, so let her live here, okay?
……
I don't know when Aunt Lan entered the temple, I don't know when she slept here, and I don't know what she thought of here. Even if Minsa asks in the future, Aunt Lan can't speak, I'm afraid she can't express it clearly.
Aunt Lan sneaked here quietly and made this place her home.
It evokes all her memories. As General Xinmei, the memories of the previous decades were left before the destruction of the Spirit Tree, but as Aunt Lan, all her memories stayed in the destruction of the Spirit Tree.
The memories after being reborn are all about the spirit tree, about the endless hidden blue.
She remembered the Spirit Tree, she remembered Minsa, she remembered the face of another man. These are probably the things in the depths of all her memories.
Minsa couldn't bear to wake Aunt Lan up, only to hear the sound of hurried footsteps in the temple.
Still recounting, he turned his head to Minsa and said, "Wake up Aunt Lan, it must be the patrol who is here!" ”
Minsa was a little unbearable, but the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Minsa had no choice but to stretch out his hand to Aunt Lan in the hollow: "Aunt Lan, wake up, Aunt Lan?" ”
If it weren't for Aunt Lan's warm body, Minsa would have to worry about whether she had fallen into a coma if she slept so deeply.
"Hurry up, it's too late." Still urging, he had already stood up and looked into the distance.
"She slept too soundly." Minsa was a little at a loss.
Still turning around, a decision had been made in a decisive moment, he stepped into the hollow, picked up Aunt Lan horizontally and carried it on his back.
"Let's go!"
Calling out to Minsa, he was already in front of him, raising his breath and flying away. Minza followed, followed by the group of guards behind him, flying over the high wall and landing beyond the walls of the temple.
If it weren't for the large number of guards running into the temple to catch the "thief", I am afraid that the guards would have been caught right by jumping straight out of the wall.
Picking a path, he still said that he carried Aunt Lan on his back and hurried back to the camp with Minsa.
Finally saw Aunt Lan lying on the couch, she was still asleep peacefully, after experiencing bumps and noises all the way, she still maintained her original sleeping posture.
Minsa shook Aunt Lan's hand, and turned to still say, "I was too careless, presumably Aunt Lan hasn't slept well since she returned to Wanling with me." ”
"Don't blame yourself, you don't know what Aunt Lan thinks. It is she herself who is willing to walk with you, which means that she likes to be with you. Still relieved.
……
In the main hall of the Qingcheng Imperial City, there was the voice of the Lord Protector.
"What happened?"
He was not in the main hall yet, and before he saw him, he heard his voice first, and this sudden habit made the imperial city attendants who had been used to it for a long time still a little stunned.
"Lord Honor, the Heroic Hou and the Champion Hou of the Tomb of Fang Cai have trespassed into the temple and injured six guards." The attendant hurriedly discerned the direction and reported to the Protector.
This lord is really wonderful, the dragon sees the head but not the tail, never comes to look for him, but he comes out to look for you from time to time. The attendants in the imperial city couldn't even tell whether it was one more lord or one more ghost.
Hey.
Hu Yuan smiled.
The attendants were even more stunned, Elder Protector was really not crazy as legendary, he was really crazy.
"Lord Jiang of the Temple, please see, did the Lord pass him on to the audience?" The attendant finally saw the face of the lord and hurriedly inquired.
Hu Yuan sat down and thought about it for a while, Mingsa and still said that the two would not harm me, this is a point that Hu Yuan firmly believes.
However, the temple that carries the essence of the spirit tree and returns to the roots of the fallen leaves is the holy place of the Qingcheng people, not to mention the Lingling people, and the Qingcheng nobles cannot enter at will.
If it weren't for the current situation of war, the timing was critical, and the temple army would probably not have consulted the lord, so they would go directly to the Yunling military camp to arrest people.
