Chapter 07: Finding the Lost Staff
Xuanguo pays attention to an auspicious day in everything, a few divination mages stand on the high platform of the astrological palace and watch the stars at night, and pinch their fingers to deduce, be cautious and cautious, calculate for a night, and then choose the auspicious day of the sixth day of the next month, it is advisable to travel far away, and everything is appropriate.
The astrological palace is the highest palace of Xuanguo, dozens of zhang higher than the solemn and majestic palace, with the main hall of the archmage's discussion, the astrological hall, the star hall, the arena, etc., the white frost dye leads the mages here to discuss and practice spells. The mage is the most noble profession of Xuanguo, and the archmage is located above the mages, the great mages of the past dynasties have been awarded the golden crown by King Xuan, the status is second only to King Xuan and the crown prince, the astrological palace is the first king ordered hundreds of craftsmen to build day and night, spending huge manpower, material and financial resources to build the crystal palace, gather the aura of all things, and hold the national fortune of the country.
Before dawn, the head of the mage Xue Gui with a pair of black panda eyes rushed to Xuan Huaiyu's dormitory, in the first time to report the divination results to the prince, the day just dawned, the first ray of sunlight in the morning climbed up the palace towering prince's bedroom, Xue Gui last night wearing the stars and the moon, the original gray hair, and added a lot of snow white, haggard old face was reflected by the sun more sallow.
After a long time, he waited until Xuan Huaiyu came out of the dormitory, Xuan Huaiyu cherished the words like gold, and said coldly: This prince already knows, Xue Aiqing is hard! Seeing a trace of expectation on his face that had experienced the vicissitudes of life, he understood Xue Gui's careful thoughts, and added: Xue Aiqing is really the pillar of the future country of Xuanguo, and this prince is very optimistic about you. He yawned at the right time and swallowed back the words "optimistic about you".
Xue Gui was more than half a hundred years old, and saw the tall figure of the prince disappear into the dormitory, so he was stunned in place and carefully pondered this sentence of praise, but he only pondered a layer of meaning, this compliment was very perfunctory, when Xue Gui pondered the sentence of the pillar of the country, he was very useful, squinting his eyes and stroking his gray beard, but why did he add the word "future" before the pillar of the country, he is now in his fifties, and how long the future is for a person who is over fifty years old, Whether he can become the future of Xuanguo, he feels a little confused, the word "future" shows that he still has a certain gap from the pillars of the country, and he still needs to continue to work hard, and he feels a trace of despair when he is about to withdraw from the court.
With confusion and despair, he left the palace with vain steps, and sat in his mansion for a long time, but ushered in the order of the archmage dyed with white frost: the mage Xue Gui was wrong in his words and deeds, and he was old and faint, so he thought about it in the mansion and temporarily withdrew his job of stargazing and divination. He experienced a sense of confusion and despair that he had never experienced in more than 50 years, and he had completely forgotten that the auspicious day of the wedding for the white frost dye a month ago was also the sixth day of the next month.
Su Moyan had been in the Fuzao Palace for two days, and on the third day, she finally couldn't sit still, but this time she learned to be obedient, and thought of a good way to bribe the palace maid who served beside the prince, and inquired about Xuan Huaiyu who would read the folds in the study at this hour, so she came to his study with the rock sugar and pear soup she had boiled herself.
Xuan Huaiyu also happened to be in the study at this time to review the folds, she had something to ask for this time, so she stood aside with the bowl of rock sugar pear, and when the soup in her hand was cold, Xuan Huaiyu looked up at her, she stood in the study for a long time, her legs were numb, and she kept holding the bowl of rock sugar pear soup, her hands were a little trembling, but when she thought that she was here to ask for someone this time, she put her position very low, and the corners of her mouth tried to pull up, smiling, and respectfully handed the soup in her hand to Xuan Huaiyu.
Xuan Huaiyu knew that she must have something to ask for since she entered the door with the soup, and deliberately ignored her, and only after reading the folds on the case did she look up at her, because she had something to ask for today, she was very well-behaved, he was very satisfied with her well-behaved and obedient, and took the bowl of soup she handed over.
"The slave family has something to ask the prince." Su Morou smiled flatteringly.
"Poof..."Xuan Huaiyu sprayed all the rock sugar pear soup in his mouth on Su Moyan's face, looking at her like an idiot.
Su Morou's face was covered with slimy soup, her little face as white as jade was flushed with anger, she took a deep breath, rubbed it with her wide cuffs, calmed her angry emotions, and pulled the corners of her mouth again, barely squeezing out a stiff smile.
"The slave family knows that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't mean it." She gritted her teeth and accentuated her tone as she said the words "not on purpose." "The slave family has something important and needs to leave the palace tomorrow, please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for permission!"
"For the sake of you making soup for Prince Ben, Prince Ben is ready!"
"The slave family thanked the prince!" Su Mo bowed and saluted, and he had to do a full set of acts, and he couldn't find anything wrong with this salute.
The next day, Su Moyan got up early in the morning, asked Kite to find a set of boy's clothes, and got a folding fan out of nowhere, just like a graceful little boy, the age of the girl Su Moyan crossed was not much older than Kirsky, and she was only a fifteen-year-old girl in the boudoir.
There is indeed something going on out of the palace today, she went out of the palace to find the staff that was lost when she fell into the ring that day, although she will know some shallow low-level spells, after her observation in the past few days, but all the big and small things that have something to do with her are not a good thing, there are a few times and almost pay with her life, and there is always Xiao Xiao who wants to harm her, if you can have a weapon by your side, you can always use it to block it at a critical moment, and she dies not so fast, but it is the best thing that the male girlfriend bought for 3,000 gold, in case it is useful!
She is familiar with the city and the road, there are a few alleys, a few small rivers she is clear, this is also thanks to her ability to forget, the test ground that fell that day has been closed, only a few pieces of peculiar stone tablets remain, the stone tablets are marked with some special symbols, and it seems to be some kind of words that have never been seen, in fact, this seemingly ordinary stone tablet is actually a kind of magic circle, the day the archmage white frost dye is dripping blood on the stone tablet, casting a spell to open the test ground once every ten years, the test ground is determined by the consciousness of the caster to open what kind of trial, Ordinary trials are used to select talents with advanced mana to enter the astrological house, and after opening the trial ground of the five generals, you will get a map with a map showing the road map to find the five generals.
Su Moyan circled around these stone tablets, and turned back again, This place is far away from the center of the city, except for these broken stone tablets, it is a flat ground that can be seen at a glance, so empty that there is not even a single weed, let alone a magic staff, she didn't even find a hair, so she hung her head and turned to the market aimlessly, thinking that since she didn't find the staff, it would be good to go to the weapons shop in the market to buy a weapon, and after turning around the market, she turned back the same way and turned into an armory shop, Fortunately, the only weapon shop in the city has a clear price for all weapons, and it will not raise the price because she crosses in from outside the game, but unfortunately although the price is clearly marked, she can't even afford the most ordinary, the most rough dagger with the price of five hundred gold.
When Su Morou was wandering alone in the market dressed as a man, Bai Shuangran asked Xuan Huaiyu to sit in Miaoyunzhai, the most expensive restaurant in the city, for dinner, how famous is it? The place where the princes and nobles of the entire Xuanguo and the children of the rich family eat and gather, and it is a time-honored brand for more than ten years. How expensive is it? A bowl of ordinary vegetarian dishes costs 500 gold, and a meal costs more than 1,000 gold, where the money is like running water.
Xuan Huaiyu sat upstairs by the window and happened to see Su Morou who was depressed and wandering on the street, and saw her look depressed after coming out of the weapon, and kicked the gravel in front of her, the stone drew a perfect arc in mid-air, and smashed on the back of her head in time, Xuan Huaiyu's cold lip line rose up, and the white frost dye sitting next to him followed Xuan Huaiyu's line of sight and saw Su Moyan, who was dressed as a man, pursed her lips and touched the back of her head, and a piece of eggplant on her bamboo chopsticks drooped her head, stunned in mid-air, Before he arrived at the white porcelain plate in front of Xuan Huaiyu, he hung straight down, his eyes drooped slightly, his long eyelashes as light as a feather fan trembled, and he slowly got up and served a bowl of ginseng soup for Xuan Huaiyu.
Su Moyan unconsciously came to a temple located in the northwest corner of the city, and after stepping up hundreds of stone steps, he came to the cold main hall, where there was only a white jade case and a few soft cushions, and a jade chessboard was placed on several cases, and the chessboard was full of black and white children who were fighting each other, and Mu Qingyun, who was dressed in white, sat in front of the desk and played against himself.
"Miss Su, please be seated."
Mu Qingyun's slender fingers as white as jade covered with delicate and small celadon cups on several cases, and the narrow phoenix eyes contained spring, which became a kind of romance in itself.
"There's something I'd like to ask Childe for help."
"Miss Su doesn't have to be polite, I am willing to serve the girl." Mu Qingyun put the celadon cup in front of Su Morou, the tea fragrance was bursting, fresh and elegant.
"I want to worship Gongzi as a teacher." Su Moyan learned the scene of apprenticeship in the TV series and knelt in front of Mu Qingyun.
"How can I be Miss Su's master?" Mu Qingyun picked up Su Moyan, who was kneeling on the ground, "Although you and I are both pastors, I am also a trainer of pastors, but pastors are far less important than mages in Xuanguo and are valued by the king in Xuanguo, so I am just idle here to take on a false name!" ”
Su Mo Yan will fall on the ring, and the loss of the staff has been told to Mu Qingyun one by one, but he did not tell him about his crossing into the game, of course, even if he told him, I am afraid he would not believe it, the most important thing at the moment is to find the lost staff, if Mu Qingyun can guide him to learn the priest's high-level spell Time Gate, it would be better.
