Chapter 114: ...... I said, the title of this chapter is still the beginning of the Starry Night Festival, will you cut me?
(In the name of the festival, please subscribe!)
"Alchemy and Karakuri magic?!" Lin Ling thought for a moment, "Is there a difference between wool?"
Shanna hesitated again: "I don't know the specifics, but I've seen them in some books in the temple, and I don't know the specifics because I've never been there." It is said that the main difference between alchemy and Karakuri is that the front is mainly non-combat, and the latter is mainly combat. β
"Civilian and military?!"
"Well...... It's a little different, but that's what it looks like overall, and I can't tell you how specific it is...... Eh, wait, Lin Ling, you go first, and this girl goes to hide. β
After saying that, Shanna didn't care that there were many pedestrians on the street now, and she shook herself on the spot, from the current black-haired girl form to a red-haired and scorching girl.
"Your Highness......" The girl was just about to slip away, but she was already a step too late, and she was put on her shoulder by a hand on the spot, and suddenly she shuddered, and her steps stopped.
I saw the red-haired girl's eyes roll, and suddenly whispered viciously: "Who are you? Dare to rob a people's girl on the street! Believe it or not, I shouted it and ruined your reputation!"
Steve sighed: "Your Highness, please be decent...... And I won't blame you for sneaking out again. But please come back with me as soon as possible, this time the festival is very important, otherwise there won't be so many big forces to participate......"
There was no doubt that it was Steve, who had been guarding the door in the morning to prevent his own saint from escaping--he knew the name of his own saint who couldn't sit still at all-but he didn't expect Shanna to slip away as soon as she entered the room last night, and she had been wandering outside all night and not coming back, so he was completely blocked.
Seeing that she was grabbed by Steve and couldn't run, Shanna could only sigh and turn around: "Eh, what's so fun about that god worship ceremony! A bunch of old monsters and gods are not talking about the control of that spirit and god hell, and it is useless for me to go to half a copper plate!"
"Your Highness, your status is one of the symbols of the Temple, second only to Your Majesty and several bishops, and you must be present...... " Steve continued to admonish.
"I see......" Shanna sighed weakly, "For the sake of you coming to me so sincerely, then I will ...... this time"
Hearing this, Steve felt uncomfortable for no reason - that feeling like leaving the house and not remembering whether the door was locked, dead or alive - what was wrong?
However, in the next second, the guardian knight knew what was wrong, and saw Shanna's figure flicker, and with the help of the petite figure conjured up at this moment with 'Raphael's deception', he rushed into the crowd in a flash, leaving a sentence from afar: "Uncle, you have found the wrong person! My name is Xana, not Shanna!"
Although Steve is not tall and big, it is also very difficult to shuttle through this crowd, so it didn't take a while for Shanna to run away, and she could only sigh speechlessly: "Your Highness...... I haven't even told you what your name is......"
"Eh, yes, it's Steve!" Lin Ling patted Steve on the shoulder, "I didn't expect that the guardian knight of the dignified temple saintess could also mingle with the people, and gather with the people!"
"Your Excellency Lin Ling, although there is nothing wrong with what you said earlier, the word behind you obviously destroyed all the previous meanings, right?!"
Steve frowned: "If I'm not mistaken, gathering a crowd of silver chaos shouldn't be a compliment, right?"
"In this gathering of the people to chant poems and celebrate the whole world, the overseers are rioters-you see nothing wrong!"
Steve's brow furrowed even deeper, and his intuition told him that the unreliable friend of the Holy Highness in front of him must be fooling him, but he always seemed to feel that something was wrong?!
But now it is still important to find Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden, thinking of this, he decided to quickly contact the city defense army and other departments, even if he is a person, no matter how high his strength is, even if he cultivates the Holy Light and Shadow clone, he will not be able to find a few places at the same time!
"Your Excellency Lin Ling, I still need to find His Highness, so I'll retire first. With that, Steve pulled away and quickly retreated along the flow of people.
"Dad, I'm going to eat that!" At this time, Yohina's eyes suddenly lit up on Lin Ling's shoulder, and she pointed to the crystal sculpture on a stall not far away.
The shape of the crystal statue is not very clear, it looks vague, and the material of the crystal is even more ordinary, and it doesn't look like it can be eaten.
Lin Ling was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and picked up the two girls, Tia Luka and Frost Moon, followed by Ai Xue and squeezed towards the stall: "Boss, how do you sell this sculpture?"
"Guest, this you can be too discerning, the material of this sculpture itself is a valuable ice crystal, but also by the famous carving master Wang Nima to create, beautiful and practical, elegant and generous, is really a must-have for home travel......"
"Tsk, don't talk nonsense, this thing is just an ordinary crystal, not even the lowest magic crystal, do you think Lao Tzu doesn't understand goods?" Lin Ling sneered, "The color is white, with blue turbidity and precipitation, and the texture is not good, it is obviously one of the lowest crystal varieties of blue blue crystal." The carving was of a terrible standard, with a total of five hundred and thirty-six knives, of which twenty-seven were finished, and nineteen were the beginnings, and generally the number of these two would not exceed ten - and the name...... You carved it yourself, right?!"
The girl in Tsing Yi hanging on him had a look of adoration on her face at the moment.
She knew that the master was the best!
So many people can't see it, but her master can see it, and she can see through it at a glance!
But the stall owner was in a cold sweat by Lin Ling's words, so he almost knelt for Lin Ling.
Five hundred and thirty-six knives?!
Nima didn't even know how many knives he used, but there were always five or six hundred knives, how did this young man who didn't look like a rich man look like he was dressed no matter how he saw it? Could it be that the other party was a craftsman, and he met someone who knew how to do it this time?!
Also, the other party can see at a glance that this crystal is the worst variety, and it is even better than himself in his eyes!
it, I met an expert today!!
A thousand words finally converged into nine words and three punctuation points in his mind, and then he immediately squeezed out a smiling face and began to explain.
"Guest...... You're laughing, how could this be carved by myself...... I don't have that ability in the next place...... As for the turbidity of this crystal, it's just that there are white clouds in the sky today, you see......"
Lin Ling sneered: "A silver coin, do you like to sell it or not." β
"Ten at the minimum!"
β...... Add fifty more copper coins. β
The stall owner gritted his teeth and continued to reduce the price: "Eight silver coins is the lowest." "If you don't sell it today, your reputation will be ruined......
"Oh. Lin Ling nodded, turned around and left.
The stall owner only felt that there were 10,000 grass and mud horses roaring and galloping in his heart...... Oh...... Oh, your sister, you're bargaining!
Don't 'oh'! Just give me an 'oh' and how do I know what you're trying to say!
"Oh, don't, don't go!
"Two silver coins, love to sell or not, if you don't sell I'm leaving. I bought this to give my daughter a snack. By the way, I'll pass by the Industrial and Commercial Association in the royal capital in a moment, and I'm going to go in and take a look. β
This is really a blatant threat to Chiguoguo! Thinking that his cost price was only one silver coin and fifty copper coins, the stall owner gritted his teeth again: "Deal!"
A crystal statue was finally bought by Lin Ling and handed it over to Yohina's little girl, who happily hugged the statue and began to lick it.
When Lin Ling and the others left from the stall, the stall owner suddenly realized something......
What did that boy say?!
...... Buy, buy, buy and sell to his daughter...... Eat?!
"Tut-tut. Ai Xue smacked her tongue around Lin Ling and was amazed, "It's really unseemly!"
"For example?"
"For example, you bastard actually has such a good bargaining technique! The old lady thought that everything you fancied was directly stolen!"
"Don't say 'stealing' is so uncivilized, let's call it a long-term free lease of the forced surname~"
"You really have the face to say it!!"
"Why can't you say something so proud? Do you want me to say that you once regarded me as the object of your hand?" Lin Ling's answer had always been a matter of course.
"Damn! the old lady won't be so tasteless, and the old lady is looking for ...... if she wants silver."
"Looking for an old uncle like Roy?"
Ai Xue sent a word on the spot: "Get out!!"
Until this time, Frost Moon frowned a little hindsightly: "Master, how did you see so many things just now? Why don't I remember you learned it?"
Lin Ling raised his neck and sneered: "Who said that you have to learn before you can speak?
β...... Huh?!"
β
Although he didn't know why Yohina suddenly wanted to eat such a crystal statue, it didn't look like something easy to digest, but Lin Ling didn't care too much - if you've ever seen the little girl eat a third of the basement's summer ice alone, you will understand.
The group continued on their way, and after walking for a short time, the flow of people in front of them gradually began to crowd and stoppedβand beyond that was the main road of the royal city.
This main road is usually accessible to anyone, but at such times it is clear that it will be closed to traffic - His Majesty the King and members of the royal family will have to walk!
At this moment, both sides of the main road were intercepted by a long line of guards, leaving the middle empty, and on both sides of the street were a large number of people.
"Oh, it's a parade!" the red-haired lady looked a little excited.
Lin Ling rolled his eyes: "It's a street parade, right?"
"You're a dog who can't spit ivory out of his mouth. Ai Xue sneered.
"You let the elephant spit out its teeth, I'll be here to read the name from today!"
"It makes no difference!"
"Tsk, at first glance, you are a poor student who has not learned the language of the unified multiverse such as Hanyu Pinyin!"
"The old lady is in a good mood today, I don't bother to pay attention to you!" Ai Xue turned her head and continued to squeeze forward, as if she really hadn't seen many scenes like this.
It wasn't long before a sudden sound of tickling and cheering could be heard in the distance, and in the distance a convoy could be seen on the horizon at the end of the street.
With Lin Ling's eyesight, he could already clearly see the magnificence of that team at this moment.
Not to mention the magic arrays engraved on the carriages for various purposes of protection and other purposes, the crystals and the like that have no use and are merely ornate ornaments are worth at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins - this is not sure that it can be too much for an ordinary family.
And it's not just an ordinary horse pulling the cart, but a dragon horse that is said to have a trace of dragon blood!
There are also a large number of royal masters on the side, and in the outermost places, there are a large number of girls and teenagers who follow the convoy and show their demeanor.
The car in the words came all the way, and the cheers of the people along the way continued. In the center of the convoy, King Kailas, dressed in a golden robe and wearing a golden crown, was raising the Starry Night Scepter, a symbol of royal power, to the people around him, with a serious face.
Beside him, there were also the queen, two princes, princesses and others, and Ilya was among them.
"Tsk, this guy is getting more and more human. Lin Ling in the crowd smacked his lips, and after confirming that Yohina, who was starting to take small bites of the crystal statue on her shoulder, was not in trouble, he simply stood still.
Although he didn't know what the real material of the statue was, he could feel a strange energy in it, which neither Frost Moon nor Tialouka could feel, it seemed to be except for himself...... Only Johina, the little girl, could feel it.
Not long after, after the royal family's convoy had once again advanced a considerable distance, the entire royal city burst into cheers.
In the sky, huge airships came from afar, driving in a queue, hanging decorations and music for the New Year, attracting the attention of countless people from far and near.
At the same time, King Kailas's voice changed and began to spread from the airship in the sky.
The scene, which appeared for the first time in many years, made countless onlookers cheer excitedly.
"My people, you can see ...... The Starry Night Kingdom is growing stronger, and we are moving forward on the road to prosperity...... The future of the Starry Night Kingdom belongs to you and me......"
I have to admit that whether or not there is a behind-the-scenes team to help write the article, Kailas's words are still very incendiary, which makes the cheers of the people more intense.
Eventually, the empty boat in the sky slowed down above the royal convoy and entered a low-speed cruising state, constantly moving along the main road of the royal city with the entire convoy.
Looking at the distant convoy, Lin Ling waved his hand: "It's almost, let's go, this thing is just a cheat! I knew it was so boring, I gave them laxatives last night, and saw how they went to the toilet in the car one by one!"
Frost Moon & Ai Xue: "......"
Tialouka's eyes lit up: "Master, you are so amazing!"
"Let's go~"
β
Shanna used Raphael's deception to turn herself into a scorching appearance, and all the way through the flow of people with her current petite body, constantly 'flowing' towards a place where no one was.
When she finally sensed that there was no one around, she found herself very close to the border walls of the royal city.
How can you run so fast?!
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then thought of the reason - to a large extent, it was not that she was running fast, but that she was pushed too fast by the crowd!
As for Steve, who was tracking him behind him, he had long since disappeared.
Haha! Make you stupid look at this girl again!
After laughing inwardly, Shanna began to look at her surroundings.
As far as the eye can see, you can already see the towering walls of the royal city, indicating that this place should not be far from the edge of the royal city.
The surrounding houses and buildings look a little old, and they must not be in the Xungui District of the city, which civilian area should it be, right?
Thinking like this, the girl casually found a direction and walked forward, and not long ago, she saw a group of soldiers hurrying by.
When one of them, who looked like a captain, saw Shanna, he immediately stopped the whole group and walked towards her.
"Little girl, it's the period of martial law for the city defense army, why do you appear in the martial law area?"
It turns out that he actually ran into the martial law area of the city defense army just now?!It seems that maybe he and Lin Ling have stayed for a long time and even learned a little bit of the other party's stealth skills?
The girl, who was thinking with a little joy in her heart, did not notice the eyes of the soldiers who were talking around, but quickly spoke.
"I'm just strolling around~ Since this is a martial law area, then I'll leave quickly~"
"Wait!" Shanna stopped as she turned to leave, the captain of the soldier stopped her, "We now suspect that you are suspected of infiltrating the city and trying to cause unrest, please come with us!"
"How is this possible?" Shanna was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, and then decided to reveal her identity - she had often used this way to bluff people in the past.
So, the girl reached out and took off Raphael's deception on her body, her figure suddenly grew taller, her washboard-like figure became bumpy, her long red hair turned golden, she shook her long hair and looked at the soldier: "I'm the Star and Moon Holy Maiden Shanna, now you are fine, right?"
Unexpectedly, several soldiers suddenly changed their faces after seeing her change back to her original appearance: "Catch her quickly!!"
β...... Huh?!"
Shana, who hadn't reacted yet, was directly shot in the head, but the defensive magic guide on her body was instantly activated, forming a thin light curtain that shrouded her and blocked the attack.
"Hey, I'm really the Holy Maiden of the Star and Moon!" Shanna, who thought she was considered a fake saint, shouted with some tears and laughter.
"No, you're the one who caught you!"
This is the answer of the captain of the soldiers. (To be continued.) )
