Chapter 31: Revisiting the Castle in the Sky

The next morning, I woke up at dawn, unable to sleep, and very irritable.

Walking out of the bedroom, she saw Lillian wiping her staff, and she said to herself, "What are you going to do?"

I walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lillian looked very melancholy, and said melancholy, "Do you feel that Allycia and Lawrence have something to hide from the two of us? ”

I thought to myself, don't talk about them, I have something to hide from you, but Herder is so messy, I'll carry it myself first, and then I'll talk about it if something goes wrong.

"But, hey. Lillian suddenly smiled slyly, took out an object, handed it to me, and said, "I admit my mistake, but I also have something to hide from you." ”

The object was slender and long, covered with dry lines, and looked like a twig, and I took it in my hand and weighed it, and it was quite a lot.

I asked, "What is this?"

"It's a twig," Lillian said with a little pride, "I found it in Sky City." ”

Castle in the sky!

It's not easy to have anything to do with Sky City, and it's in Sky City that the Bone Thief's Prison Breath was resolved, and it's still a mystery that it suddenly appeared behind us.

But then I thought about it, when we arrived at Sky City, the first to fourth floors were all open space, and the ground was as bright as porcelain makeup, not to mention trees, and we couldn't even find a small grass, so where did this branch come from?

I said, "Don't make trouble, you say you're a magician, you have a noble status, you don't learn well, you just learn to pick up garbage, and besides, there is no such thing in Sky City." ”

In response to my questioning, Lilian showed a look of disdain and said disdainfully: "If you don't say that it's terrible to be uneducated, I have read books before, and it is said that above the fourth floor of Sky City is a mysterious space, where there is a bronze god tree, which leads directly to another world." Then he said mysteriously, "This branch can indirectly prove that it is true!"

Bronze Sacred Tree!

A gateway to another world!

Can I go back to Earth?

Of course, I'm not stupid, I'm in this Arad continent, I have a house and a sister, I am a middle class, and I am admired as if I moved the Chinese, and I was quite nourishing, and there was no need to return to the earth to be exploited.

But there is no explicit provision that I can't bring things from the earth, the two sides of the technology tree are different, I just brought a few physical and chemical books, rebuilding the industrial revolution is not a dream, when the time comes, won't it be worshiped by generations of people?

I said, "Are you sure it's true?"

Lilian said proudly: "Of course, I've been checking the information lately to find out whether this is true or not." Then she said gloomily, "But this matter can be very dangerous, it is still a mystery that the Bone Thief suddenly appeared behind us at that time, and it always feels like there are hands pushing the whole thing forward." ”

I thought of Herder saying that the Four Sacred Stones were also there, and now there was another Bronze Divine Tree, as if all the spearheads were directed at the Sky City, and I couldn't help but be sober.

Little Lori Bingtu walked out at this time, rubbed her eyes in a daze, saw me and Lilian, and asked, "Brother and sister, what are you doing?"

Lillian replied casually, "We were chatting about what to eat this morning." ”

"Oh, let's talk, then. Bingtu smiled: "I will eat whatever you do, I am not picky, very well-behaved, and do not cause trouble to my brothers and sisters." ”

As soon as I wanted to say two good mornings, I caught a glimpse of Bingtu's rabbit ears, which were long and full of fluff, and asked with an idea, "Do you know about the Bronze Divine Tree Bingtu?"

I want to ask the Four Sacred Stones in passing, but since Lilian didn't open her mouth here, God knows if it will involve her in this troublesome matter, or don't pull people into the water.

When Lilian heard this, she quietly tugged at the corner of my clothes and whispered, "What are you talking to Bingtu about this, she's still a child!"

"I'm just asking, what if she knows anything useful?" I bared my teeth and said, "If you ask, nothing will happen, what are you panicking about." ”

Lilian wanted to say something more, but Bingtu touched her ear and asked suspiciously, "Is it the Bronze God Tree?" ”

Lilian and I were stunned by this, and what was even more unexpected was that Celia came out of the kitchen and answered, "Bronze Sacred Tree, I know." ”

......

The secret meeting between the two turned into a four-person negotiation.

Bingtu is a mythical story that circulates within the clan, legend has it that a long time ago, there was a big hero, the head of the eagle body, with the power to open the world, the voice became thunder, led the tribe to wade through the mountains and rivers to the snow mountain area to establish a territory, so that the Bantu people prospered and developed, after the end of their lives, turned into countless blue phoenixes soaring over the snow-capped mountains and hovered, blessed with peace, but every year in autumn, they will fly to the place called the bronze god tree, and return in the early spring of the second year, some people say that they listen to the will of God, and some people say that those blue phoenixes are gods at all。

Myths often have apocryphal parts, no one knows whether they are true or false, such as Kuafu chasing the sun, drinking the Yellow River dry in one gulp, not to mention anything else, I don't believe that there is such a big bladder in this world, so I asked: "Are you sure about the ice map?"

"Of course it's for sure!" Bingtu moved his rabbit ears and said with a serious expression: "I saw it before I was trafficked here! It is said that the blue phoenix is a symbol of good luck, and it is not good to say that I was saved by you because of this, hehe, may the Great Snow Mountain bless you." ”

There is not much useful information, but it gives the Bronze Divine Tree a veil of mystery even more.

Turning her head to look at Celia, this little girl was a little embarrassed to be looked at, her cheeks were crimson, she touched her nose and said, "I don't know very well, I just heard Michelle say that the Bronze Divine Tree is in the Sky City." ”

Michelle's full name is the Sage Michelle, a former tenant on the second floor of the small house, named Celia, and went to make a deal with Herder, and established the Goddess of Light Cult with her bare hands during the war years, and her life history is simply not too dazzling.

What does this kind of man of God do?

What can be concluded at the moment is that what Lillian said is true, and that the Sky City and the Bronze Sacred Tree are indeed connected.

Lilian was more excited than me, and said impatiently, "Celia, do you know anything, and what else did that Michelle tell you about the Bronze Sacred Tree?"

"En......" Celia wrinkled her brows, tried to think, and then sighed: "I'm sorry, it's too old, I can't remember." ”

Arad history 300 years, remove the blank 150 years, the Dros Empire was established 150 years ago, and the Goddess of Light Cult was also established at that time, that is to say, Michelle was a person 150 years ago, and it is strange that he can remember it.

Celia pointed to the bronze branch and said, "What is this, it tastes so fragrant and attractive." ”

Lillian replied casually, "Picked it up by the roadside." ”

I looked at Lillian and found that she was even more confused, and I was confused now.

After pondering for a moment, I said to Lilian, "I'll just go and see, stretch my neck and shrink my neck, I don't want people to lead me by the nose." ”

I pointed to Celia and Bingtu again and said, "You two obediently take care of Lilian's house, eat and drink and sleep well, don't worry about me, I'll come back when I go to see." ”

Actually, I have selfish intentions, because whether it is Herder's commission or the legend of the bronze god tree leading to another world, I have great curiosity, and this is also the current way to break the deadlock, whether the mule is pulled out and slipped.

But Lilian said, "I'll go with you too, and the two of them will take care of each other." ”

I don't know if it's good or bad this time, I don't want Lilian to wade into troubled waters, so I said: "You can pull it down, don't make a mess, cry at every turn, it's too late for me to coax you." ”

When Lilian heard this, her face turned red and she said angrily: "I didn't cry, I don't need you to coax!"

As soon as I saw that the agitation method worked, I continued: "I don't know whose tears are falling from the pear blossoms, you can stay on the second floor and wait for me to come back." ”

"Fuck off, you old rascal!" Lillian said angrily, inexplicably disappointed, "Don't forget, the extradimensional rift has something to do with Sky City, I'...... I don't want anything to happen again......"

This sentence woke me up to the fact that Lilian's parents had died the last time the rift in another dimension opened, and that was really important to her.

I stepped back and said, "Okay, just go, no one cares about you, just don't trouble me." ”

"Don't hold me back, thank God!" Lillian wrinkled her nose and said, "I don't know who is an ordinary person, war scum!"

It's no fun to fight with this little girl again, never reason with women, because they have no reason to talk about, I changed the topic and said: "It's better to be in a hurry than to be in a hurry, let's go after dinner, I have a wish." ”

"Going in a while?" Lillian grew her mouth and then snorted, "Go and go, who is afraid of you!"

After briefly explaining the matter to Celia and Bingtu, Lilian and I had eaten and drunk enough, and we were about to go out.

Lilian prepared to do a lot of good things this time, big bags and small packets, all kinds of talismans and magic circles, I am different, from the previous two lessons, I have come to an experience, people are iron rice and steel, I asked Celia to make a lot of steamed bread, and brought two small tubes of drinking water, which can last at least a week.

Lillian pointed to my stockpile and exclaimed, "You're going to take these things on an expedition?"

I said, "Of course. ”

Lillian asked, "Nothing else?"

I gave Lillian a thumbs up, winked, and smiled, "Of course!"

Lilian's face was full of confusion: "What else?"

I was sure, "A brave heart." ”

......

Actually, I also brought some rope tools and the like just in case.

I've been to Sky City before, and we are familiar with the route, and because of the presence of Lilian, a level 5 magician, the monsters don't dare to appear, and it's as easy as a spring outing.

The dry food I carried was heavier than anyone, I walked slowly, my steps were all over the mountain, Lilian carried all the pieces of paper on her back, and threw her staff at me, and went into battle lightly, walking in front, like a little swallow, bouncing and jumping.

I looked at her petite back, blonde hair with double ponytails, and I had mixed feelings, she was still a child, should I tell her about Herder, I really wanted to talk to someone about it.

Just as I was in the middle of my thoughts, Lillian turned back and said, "Old rascal, are you a pig?

Forget it,.

After half a day's trek, we finally arrived at our destination, the city in the sky.

Looking at this giant tower, straight to the sky, a strange thing on each floor is obviously unrealistic, not to mention anything else, there is no elevator here, and the monsters who live on the upper floors have to vomit blood when they go up and down the stairs, so there must be a doorway inside.

Looking at the stone tablet next to it, the emperors of all dynasties have to come here to pay respects, so what's so boring?

This castle in the sky is really full of puzzles.
