Chapter 295: The Wedding of the Prisoner and the King
How the hell did you fall asleep?
Lin Luoran touched the cold stone bed and sat up. This is a palace decorated with a lot of gold leaf, bright as day, full of Babylonian architectural features, so that Lin Luoran understands that he has entered the palace, and he has not woken up, passed the test of the Tower of Babel, and returned to the twenty-first century.
However, she clearly remembered that she had blended in with a group of maids, and went to a place similar to a side hall, how could she sleep in such a bed. Compared to the people who still wear linen clothes, this stone bed is covered with genuine silk fabrics.
What does it say in the textbook when you are studying? Didn't the Silk Road rise in the Western Han Dynasty, so what's the matter with the silk sheets laid here! She was indignant, and then she felt amused by her own childishness, since she stepped into the cultivation realm, isn't the original history of this world being subverted a little bit.
Be calm. Lin Luoran bit her tongue, she looked at the empty hall, there was no one, gold and jewelry could not bring her warmth, but set off the place even colder. She remembered some vulgar time-traveling novels such as "Pharaoh's Favorite Concubine", and the heroine would always wake up in the king's bed after the crossing, how similar to the plot in front of her!
Lin Luoran shuddered, touched his pocket, and the two paper talismans that were supposed to be lying there were gone.
It was completely calm, Lin Luoran turned over and sat up, ripped the silk sheet off the bed and trembled. Well, there was some plaster, as if it was rubbed on her face and arms, and the two paper talismans she was most looking for were completely gone.
"You're looking for this?" A clear female voice came from the door of the hall, and Lin Luoran suddenly straightened her waist, it was a woman in a silk deep robe. Thanks to the days when he was looking for a soul-nourishing wood to study in Shu University, otherwise Lin Luoran firmly believed that he would not recognize the "deep clothes" at a glance, the sleeves were very wide, and they were about to be dragged to the ground...... In other words, is the Asian-looking woman in front of you really from the Spring and Autumn Period in China?
The tears of the fellow when he saw the villager were not blocked by more than 2,000 years, but they were enough to be defeated by the two paper talismans in the hands of the woman. Lin Luoran suddenly sobered up, and the one who could appear in Babylon at this time was of course the cultivator's senior.
What did the seniors just say? It's like a dialect, and it sounds familiar. Lin Luoran looked puzzled, the woman in deep clothes was obviously defeated by her stupid appearance, a beam of light did not enter Lin Luoran's eyebrows, and there was a flow of information in her brain, just like the memory bead of the white fairy at the beginning, Lin Luoran instantly opened this plug-in called "Universal Translator".
She could understand the dialect of the woman in deep clothes......
"I've seen my seniors." Plug-ins, this is plug-ins! Lin Luoran shouted silently in her heart, she could say the same accent as she wanted with her mouth.
The woman in deep clothes pinched two paper talismans, a little disgusted: "Who are you, who is cultivated so lowly, and dare to fall into this troubled water." ”
Those two runes are the proud works of Qingchengguan, and she was nakedly slapped in the face, and Lin Luoran was also resentful in her heart, but she was not a friend of Qingchengguan, so she couldn't force this head. Then again, after more than two thousand years, the cultivation realm has seriously regressed, maybe this paper talisman, including herself, is indeed a humble existence in the eyes of this woman, hey!
But how do you answer her? The sect thousands of years ago, she vaguely remembered that the white fairy mentioned that she was from the Ethereal Peak, and there was also a Hehuan faction, well, Shushan should also exist, the problem is, who knows which sect the woman in front of her belongs to, in case it is one of the three factions...... Thinking of this, Lin Luoran honestly bowed his head:
"The junior is passing by the scattered cultivation here, and I heard about the interstellar teleportation array here, so I came to see the excitement."
The woman in deep clothes snorted coldly: "The words are evasive and vulgar, why is the loose cultivation banned from cultivating, the Tower of Babel is a secret matter, and it is not something that ordinary casual cultivators can know, I don't know which master I offended, and I dare to sneak into this honor guard to dodge, so you will stay in this hall first, and this seat will be tried after tomorrow." ”
Is this jail in disguise? The defenseless Lin Luoran felt very insecure.
She is now 100% sure, it is really very unlucky, as soon as she picks up the leak, she meets the monks above the Yuan Infant, and only they will call themselves "this seat". Do you speak rudely yourself? It's just that it's not in the vernacular, so don't do it.
A head poked out from outside the door of the hall, blue eyes, a fair complexion glowing with a healthy red light, the unique appearance of the people of the two river basins, the nose is very high, and the body is also taller than the average height of this era, and Lin Luoran is already tall.
It was a beautiful exotic girl dressed in a long silk dress with jeweled ornaments braided into two braids, competing with her long brown hair. This exotic girl is obviously a nobleman, Lin Luoran made a judgment in an instant.
In the underground era of productivity, aristocratic girls undoubtedly have a higher chance of producing beauties than the people. Only sufficient food can meet the needs of physical development, making her slender and tall, plump and charming. A reasonable diet can make her complexion fair and healthy, and more importantly, the long brown hair, the luster is not much inferior to the gems between the braids, which requires maintenance and a lot of fruits and other luxuries.
"Teacher, is she from your country?"
The foreign girl rushed in like a bird and stood next to the woman in deep clothes.
"Teacher", what a kind word, hey, this is still the local dialect of that kind of Arabic, this time Lin Luoran understood every word. That plug-in translates more than one language? Lin Luoran was pleasantly surprised, staring at the foreign girl with indescribable excitement.
Language is a bridge of communication, and being able to understand the words of the locals is so helpful in verifying the matter of the Tower of Babel, and for this, she wants to be a little grateful that this woman in deep clothes locked her up in prison.
"Edith, why are you here, the bride-to-be should have a good rest." The coldness on the face of the woman in deep clothes melted away a lot, and she said in her mouth, but she didn't actually blame Edith.
Lin Luoran turned into a little transparent beside her, thinking indignantly that this woman was half-white when she spoke to her, and called her vulgar......
Edith pouted, and at that moment, Lin Luoran even felt that she had seen another "Li Xi'er".
"Teacher, you haven't told Edith yet, is she from your country, also from the mysterious East?"
The woman in deep clothes gave Lin Luoran a warning look, and nodded helplessly. Edith's attention was drawn to it, and it was from where the mysterious East, the omnipotent teacher, came from.
"Edith, are you here for something?"
Edith patted her head: "The High Priest is looking for you to discuss tomorrow's ceremony, teacher." ”
The woman in the dark clothes nodded, told Edith not to run around, and walked slowly by herself. Lin Luoran breathed a sigh of relief, she was nervous, and she didn't even look at the appearance of the woman in deep clothes, the coercion that this woman gave her was too powerful.
"Hello, Ammeidis, from Medes." The beautiful girl greeted Lin Luoran with a warm smile.
Lin Luoran was flattered, this girl was really out of sight, "Hello, Lin Luoran, from the far east." This kind of atmosphere is only a handshake, otherwise I really suspect that it has returned to the 21st century. There was no pressure to communicate and the local dialect was fluent, which was a good start.
In view of the fact that this local girl is obviously easier to deal with than the woman in deep clothes, Lin Luoran decided to start with her, by the way, what did the woman in deep clothes say just now, wedding?
"Edith, are you going to have a wedding soon?" It looks like he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is about to get married, and early marriage is not a special case in ancient China.
Edith's sky-blue eyes were all smiling, "With the help of the teacher, I am going to marry the hero of Babylon, and I am so happy that I can't sleep tonight." ”
The woman in deep clothes is also responsible for the media? Lin Luoran intuitively felt that the monk would not have this hobby, or did he come to be a matchmaker across borders, what was it for?
"Who are the heroes of Babylon?"
Edith's face flushed, "In Babylon, in the plains of Meso, only Nebuchadnezzar can be called a hero. The teacher said that I can be a good queen, but in fact, I can't ...... anything."
The thoughts of these girls and the nervousness of the bride to be married infected Lin Luoran, and she listened quietly, but the name of the big hero gradually matched some of the information in her mind.
Wait, Nebuchadnezzar? It can't be that Nebuchadnezzar II, right?
Edith from the Medes, God, isn't this the same existence as Daji in Chinese history, the little girl in front of her is the future princess of Babylon, the one who asked Nebuchadnezzar to build the world-famous "Hanging Garden" for her?
Lin Luoran stared at Edith with a strange expression.
