Chapter 278: Heavenly Palace
There are no planes, no human machines, no people in this world, and it is impossible to explore the desert from the air.
Otherwise, this pearl in the desert will definitely become a landmark, the oasis is already very conspicuous, and the pearl embedded in the oasis is even more eye-catching.
The convoy slowly drove into the base camp of the Rainy Heavenly Palace, which they called the Heavenly Palace.
In fact, in my opinion, this place is a desert town, and the ancient city wall is only ruined and broken, and two sides are missing on all sides, and the people of the Heavenly Palace have not repaired it.
The houses in the city were all made of fishbone and turtle shells, and the creatures were significantly larger than the pearl.
I don't know much about ancient sea creatures, but it doesn't matter, the important thing is that it's full of gold!
Aside from the construction of houses for the time being, gold-filled and gem-encrusted utensils can be seen everywhere.
The door curtain hooks of ordinary houses are made of gold, and the wind chimes hanging from the windows are made of gold and precious stones.
Any pots and pans have gold edging.
Some directly use gold bowls and agate plates, which are placed on the small table at the door, and are used to hold nuts, and they don't seem to worry about someone stealing them.
What's more, they decorate the exterior walls of houses with colored gemstones, and use them to form various patterns of flowers, birds and beasts, and several walls are full of inlays, and the gems are like stained glass in the eyes of modern people.
I secretly calculated that I wanted to hollow out the Rainy Heaven Palace, and the original plan might not work.
I thought they were just some savings, but now it seems that they are sitting on a mountain of gold and jewels, and the bulk of their wealth is still below.
It is estimated that there are no outsiders coming to the palace in the rainy day, and the residents who live in the city see us coming in, and they all stand at the door to visit, and the work in their hands has stopped, and those in the house also run out to watch.
They have their own language, and they can't communicate with outsiders.
It's like a dialect, and there is a group of people waiting in the city to meet us.
Earlier, I saw an eagle hovering above the team, and it was supposed to send a letter back to inform the people of the Heavenly Palace that a guest had arrived.
The Rainy Heavenly Palace has branches in Fengqi Shiguo and Yuancheng, and they contact the dark forces of Wulin to recruit cult people, and they use the branch as a base.
Only their own people can come to the Heavenly Palace, and they have a doctor in the palace, more than one, with superb medical skills and rich experience.
In addition to the doctors who have official status, there are also Jianghu Langzhong in the palace, who are also famous figures.
They all said that they couldn't cure the illness of the new palace master, so the people at the bottom ran outside to find a doctor.
There are many people who want the new palace master to die, and they don't dare to act in a high-profile manner, so they send people from the kidnapping team to travel quietly.
Maybe they believe in my medical skills too much, and they are sure that the new palace master is saved, so they no longer keep a low profile, take us into the city in a high-profile manner, and shout casually, they have invited a divine doctor for the palace master, and the idle people avoid it, so don't block the way and delay the divine doctor to treat the palace master.
Now that the people of the Heavenly Palace know that I am a divine doctor, I can see their love for the new palace master from the emotional changes of ordinary palace people.
When they heard that the palace master was saved, they were obviously happy and full of hope.
However, there are several emotions of implicit hostility, hidden in the emotions of goodwill.
I caught it, and secretly let out a filament of gas to lock onto the target, intending to track them.
The greeter led us to a building beneath the Great Pearl, which was a quadrangular courtyard surrounded by four two-story buildings with a garden.
The convoy was so large that one building could not fit in, so the messenger was very polite to us, prepared a sumptuous meal and hot water, and asked us to rest for one night and go to see the palace master tomorrow.
It was afternoon when we arrived, and there were still hours before the evening, and after eating and bathing, we rested in our respective rooms.
The trek through the desert was indeed tiring, and the convoy men slept from the afternoon until the early hours of the next morning.
They were commanded by me to rest.
In the night there were two 'thieves who tried to touch the house, with them
The knife and the poisonous snake were discovered by the guards outside the door and had to flee.
The new palace master should have known that someone wanted him to die, and that I was a miracle doctor who had been hired back with a lot of money, and would send someone to assassinate me, so since I entered Tiangong City, someone has openly and secretly protected me and the convoy.
At night, we went to sleep, and there were people guarding the door, and I thought these people were reliable, so I told the people in the convoy to sleep in peace.
No wonder the previous palace master was like Buling Buling, the Heavenly Palace is really rich, so rich that I can't sleep at all, and I have been thinking about how to turn their money into my money all night.
Therefore, I did not miss the small movement of the night, and when it was daybreak, the guards outside the door quietly withdrew, and the people of the convoy got up to wash, came to check on me, and brought me breakfast into the house by the way.
Seeing that nothing had happened all night, they went to the courtyard to unload the cart, and yesterday they only untied the horses and let them be led to graze, and the boxes on the cart were not moved.
This morning, I will enter the palace to see the palace master, and if it goes well, I can leave with the money, and they will start preparing after breakfast.
I didn't really want to go this fast, but I didn't share that idea with anyone.
After eating, someone came to pick it up, not a carriage, but a sedan chair carried by manpower, and the square courtyard was very close to the place where the palace master lived, so there was no need to take a carriage.
It took a few minutes to get to the place, but you need a waist card to enter the door, and the door is very strict.
The palace master lived under the large pearl, which was the dome of the building, and there were even larger buildings below.
This is a palace made of fishbones, and the pillars and walls are inlaid with either pearls or precious stones, crystals are also ornaments, and there are countless decorations with gold edging and patches.
There are two jade carvings at the entrance of the palace, and there are two gold vases taller than me at the entrance, and there are landscape trees made of jade and precious stones.
The road leading to the throne of the main hall is paved with gold bricks, which are also embedded with seven-colored gemstones.
The throne of the palace master is made of the shell of a large mussel, I have a little doubt, this heavenly palace was originally the dragon palace at the bottom of the sea, due to the vicissitudes of the sea, the sea water disappeared, the bottom of the sea became a desert, and the dragon palace also became a ground building.
The new palace master sat on the throne, he was wearing a white robe, and there were not many ornaments on his body, and a few of them were also minimalist and not gorgeous and eye-catching.
He is younger than the previous palace master, and he looks like he is in his early twenties, which is the age when he is easily trapped by love.
I stepped forward to give a salute, neither humble nor arrogant, and he quickly got up and told me that I didn't have to be like this, that I was a distinguished guest invited by them, and that he had not personally come to the city gate to greet him, which was already very rude.
He said he was unwell, and that's true, he was in a really bad condition.
"Palace master, I don't like to go around the bend, I'll say it straight if I have something to say, you're not lovesick, it's poisoned." As soon as I entered, I saw his face and examined his body with my abilities.
He looked sad and overwhelmed.
On the surface, it looks like I'm in a bad mood and has a lot of troubles.
But in fact, it was he who had worms inside!
