Wood Analysis (Chapter 11)

"What did I just say, that flower will make people see illusions, such as things that have been thinking in their hearts, don't you believe it, is it okay now?" Si Yi said to Tu Yin with a cold snort.
The three of us gasped and returned to shore.
"So you also saw something strange, and you didn't stabilize your mind before falling into the water?" "I now understand that the strange sound just now was caused by an illusion, but there is no way to tell Si Yi and the picture I saw, so I can only replace it with the word strange.
"Hmm. Tu Yin, who had always been active, didn't say a word, and the expression on his face was very complicated.
Si Yi coughed to ease the atmosphere and said, "This kind of flower is called Ning Luo, and it is said that it can make people see what they think in their hearts. I now understand why the priests want us to memorize the Hundred Things. Si Yi and Tu Yin's expressions were very unnatural, and I snickered in my heart for a while: You two may have been punctured with something.
Since our robes were not stained with water due to the Water Avoidance Charm, I was worried and asked, "Will Ning Luo still make us see illusions again?"
"No, Ning Luo's flower has no effect after smelling it once. "I was going to ask Si Yi, but Tuyin answered me first.
Without any worries, the three of us tried to eliminate the distractions in our hearts, and continued to flow down the river using the moving steps. The branches of the trees were like clouds of smoke in front of my eyes, and the reflection of me on the surface of the river was my passing reflection. Although the Night Hades Palace is not without such a leisurely scenery, if you glimpse the black city wall that symbolizes the end in the distance, you will unconsciously be overshadowed by a layer of depression in your heart.
The black city wall may have become an indelible trace in the hearts of people in the palace of the underworld every night.
As night fell, phoenix lights were lit in the distance. "It's finally here!" Tuyin's face swept away the gloom of the early morning and became active again. "I think it's better to find a guide as soon as possible and avoid some delay. I said, I really don't want to live in an inn.
Walking into the bazaar, it is the beginning of the lanterns, and the piano and sheng songs are particularly lively. The biggest difference between the underworld and the mortal world is that the bustle of the underworld is limited to the night, and we randomly found a vendor who set up a stall: "Laojia, we want to go to the guide." ”
"It seems that you are not from this place either, who would not know the shop of the guide? "We followed the direction of the vendor's finger and easily found the shop that led the way. The phoenix lantern was originally a flame on the tail feathers of a phoenix, which was usually fiery red, and only the flame of the phoenix king was a vivid purple red.
"It's really rich, where is the Phoenix King easy to find?" Tu Yin exclaimed when she saw the purple red flames flickering in the lampshade. Pushing the door in, the wind chimes hanging from the door jingled.
"I'm not divining today, so please go back. A man in a light gray robe stepped forward to us. "We're not here for divination. I took out from my bosom the letter from my mother: "Call out your rulers." The man walked into the inner room with a suspicious look.
In fact, in the Yinlu and He families, the interior is divided into inner and outer clans, and the blood of the inner clan is naturally closer, in addition to some side lines and small branches. Even if I take out the letter, the person in the light gray robe will not understand, because he is a foreigner, but generally the person in charge will be the one who is closer to the inner tribe in the foreign race, right?
The three of us were standing straight in the store waiting, and after a while, a girl with a bright smile came out of the inner room, she was dressed in a blue and white robe, her long hair over the waist was lightly coiled into a loose bun, but she looked particularly cute, and she seemed to be in her 30s if you looked closely. "Who was looking for me just now?" her blue eyes asked, scanning the three of us.
I didn't answer her, just smiled lightly and gently sent the book's spiritual power into her hands. When she saw the seal on the letter, her face became serious, and after reading it, she bowed to us shallowly: "I will take you to the mansion to see the patriarch immediately." I don't know which one is His Highness Ximu?"
Tuyin pushed me forward, and I leaned forward unnaturally, and smiled helplessly at the girl: "I am." ”
The girl also gave me a smile back, and the country was overwhelmed. "My name is Ryozakura. ”
Happy New Year to all!⊙▽⊙
