Chapter 18: Nuwa Arrives
After a few days of traveling, the king and his party returned to the Chaoge City, a huge and magnificent capital, which was resplendent and beautiful in the sun.
"I'm back!"
The King rode through the wide, bright streets, with a smile on his face and a tired look in his eyes. For some reason, along the way, I always felt that something was missing, as if my heart was empty, as if something was missing.
An hour later, the king and his party entered the palace and came to the top of the main hall. Above the main hall, hundreds of civil and military officials lined up on both sides, kneeling to welcome the holy car.
The king sat on the dragon chair and looked at the ministers below the high platform. His gaze wandered over the group of ministers, as if trying to find the missing corner. But soon, he gave up, because there was no way to find out.
A picture kept coming to his mind: he was standing in front of the cliff, looking up at the starry sky......
Suddenly, the king frowned slightly, and felt a faint pain in his head, and he reached out and rubbed his temples, as if trying to ease the sharp pain.
The king closed his eyes for a moment, and finally felt much more comfortable, he opened his eyes, glanced at the ministers below, and asked indifferently: "Today, do you Aiqing have something to do?" If there is nothing to report, step aside. ”
After hearing this, the ministers below lowered their heads one after another, not daring to raise their heads to meet the eyes of the king.
As we all know, the king has a tyrannical personality, and he is even more unkind to the ministers, and if he is not satisfied, he will be condemned to the ministers.
And in the past few years, the king has intensified. So much so that the ministers have already been worn out of their sharpness, and even if they have the heart to resist, they can't lift their spirits.
"Retreat!"
With the sound of the eunuch's shrill and loud voice, the ministers left the hall one after another and dispersed everywhere.
The King was left alone to sit there, his eyes flickering and he was lost in thought, his mind recalling the strange feeling he had before.
"Is it really my delusion?" He muttered.
"Ding! The main quest is triggered, please complete the quest! ”
The abrupt sound of the system pulled him out of his deep thought, and he was stunned.
"What's going on? The main quest was triggered? ”
He wondered in his heart, and he remembered that he had indeed had some strange feeling just now.
Anyway, since the system has given him a task, he must complete it.
"I wonder what kind of reward I can get this time?" He muttered to himself.
Soon, he made up his mind, and immediately used the mall to buy a teleportation charm, and disappeared in an instant, coming to a restaurant.
This is the most luxurious restaurant in Chaoge, called Zuixianju, which is said to have been opened by immortals, and there are no extra rooms at all in normal times.
At the moment, the restaurant is lively and overcrowded.
Not far away, in the private room on the second floor, there were a dozen well-dressed young men, who were talking to each other in groups of three or five, or alone.
"I heard that this drunken immortal residence is backed by immortals, and there is usually no spare room at all! It was a stroke of luck that there were enough rooms for us today! ”
One of the young men said excitedly.
The other young men were also overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered the men to put all the dishes on the table. After eating and drinking for a moment, they eagerly took out the flask and took a sip.
"Sure enough, it's good wine!" They were amazed.
"I don't know who the owner of the Drunken Immortal Residence is? I got such a good wine. A young man asked.
"I don't know, but I heard that this person is a monk, so he should have some background." Another young man shook his head.
While they were eating and drinking, they were talking about the Drunken Immortal Residence, and after a while, their topic suddenly shifted to one thing.
This matter is about the Nuwa Temple, and when the king heard this, he became interested, so he walked forward and said: "I heard that several of you are talking about the Nuwa Temple, and it just so happened that Gu also wants to hear what you think about this matter.
These people were about to be furious because they were interrupted from talking, but one of them knelt down directly when he turned around, and the grass people knocked to see His Majesty! , A smile appeared on the expressionless face of the King of the Ring, "Oh? How did you learn about Lone's face? One of the men returned: "Your Majesty, when you went to Nuwa Temple, the grass people saw your face from a distance, so they recognized Your Majesty, and when the other people heard this, they also knelt down and said in unison: The grass people knock to see Your Majesty!" Seeing this, the king did not pursue it: Get up and talk to Lone, what do you think of Lone's previous incident in Nuwa Temple.
Seeing this, they hurriedly arched their hands, then pointed to the delicacies on the table, and said, "Your Majesty, let the small shop serve the delicacies first, and then it is not too late to explain in detail." ”
The King nodded, and sat aside to wait for them to be served wine and food.
Soon, they began to narrate, telling their opinions, as well as their understanding and evaluation of the matter.
I have to say that although this group of people are all children of the world, their vision is not bad, after all, they were all born in powerful families, they are familiar with it, and what they say is more to the point, and even the king of Xuan can't help nodding secretly at this time.
The group spoke for a long time, and finally, a handsome young man suggested: Your Majesty, your poem on the statue of Nuwa will definitely anger Nuwa Niangniang, this is a bad omen.
When the king heard this, he immediately frowned, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, Lone is the king of a country, how can you speculate wildly? ”
The young man hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: Your Majesty forgives your sins!
The king waved his hand to show that it was okay, he muttered for a while, and then said: "You are right, Gu did anger Nuwa Niangniang, but it does not mean that she will punish Gu. ”
When the rest of the people heard this, they immediately showed a look of surprise, and couldn't help but say, "Could it be that Your Majesty already has a way to make Nuwa Niangniang not punish you?" ”
"Not really." The King shook his head, and then smiled, "But Lone has already thought of a countermeasure, you can rest assured, Lone will definitely not make any mistakes!" ”
When the rest of the people saw this, they could only compliment: "Your Majesty is clever!" I'll wait for the wind to fall. ”
"Hahaha......" King Xuan laughed heartily.
Then, he said goodbye to these gentlemen and left the restaurant
