When the tribal boy plunged his spear into the chest of the last foe, he drew his only weapon, clutching the hilt of the spear, barely supporting his exhausted, dehydrated body in the sand.

This battle has lasted for three full weeks, and the result of the melee between the four tribes is that he is the only one who is still alive, and after three days of fierce fighting without food or drink, he finally fell to the corpses of the Gobi Desert.

It would be nice to have a pot of water to drink—having lost his brother, father, and clansman, he instinctively prayed for God's mercy to give him a way to live.

As if the heavens had heard his prayer, the clouds suddenly fell into this extremely dry land, which had not seen a single cloud all year round, and it began to rain heavily. The tribal boy was stunned, he stood up, tilted his head and tried to hold his chapped mouth wide to bear the rain and dew of these miracles, but after a long time he could only moisten his dry throat slightly, and did not quench his thirst.

"Well, I've got clean water here."

Suddenly, a man's voice came from behind the tribal boy, and he instinctively drew his spear and pointed it at the man, but saw the man holding a clay pot in his hand, dressed in a holy white robe as flowing and light as a god, in this place covered with mud by the rain, his body was not stained with a single dirt, not even the raindrops could come close, his long brown hair fluttered, and his brown eyes were like amber, shining with a pure smile.

Frightened and frightened, the boy looked at the fine clay pot and asked in a crappy, hoarse voice with a tribal accent, "For me?" ”

"Of course, drink it."

The man in white let go of his hand holding the pot, which did not fall, but floated in the air and floated in front of the tribal boy.

The boy didn't care so much, threw away his spear and hurriedly took the clay pot, and drank the clean water from the pot.

"What kind of water is this, and why is it so sweet? I've never drunk such good water! ”

Seeing that he was so satisfied, the man in white walked towards him with a smile and said, "This is the condensation of water spiritual power, and it is naturally sweet." ”

"Spiritual power? What is Spiritual Power? The tribal boy asked him.

"It is the natural force of all things in heaven and earth."

The tribal boy frowned, looked him up and down, and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"Me? Just call me Nogar. ”

"Noga?" The tribal boy scratched his head and asked, "Then what are you doing here, are you here to attack our tribe?" ”

Noga laughed, snapped his fingers, and the pouring wind and rain spun and receded into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, the scorching sun and the dusky sky without a single cloud were back in front of the tribal boy's eyes.

The tribal boy was so pierced by the sudden appearance of the sun that he couldn't open his eyes, squinted his eyes, frightened, and even asked in a trembling voice: "You, you, you!" Who are you? ”

Noga was still smiling, with only a faint lightness in his tone, and replied, "Me? It's just an ordinary god. ”

Hearing this answer, the tribal boy gasped, fell to his knees with a thud, and repeatedly prostrated himself and shouted, "O God! O God! Thank God for His Gift! Thank God for His Gift! ”

After prostrating, the tribal boy looked at Noga with bright eyes and asked him in a very respectful tone, "Why did you suddenly come to earth?" ”

Noga looked around and said, "You humans have been divided into dozens of camps, and you have been fighting on this continent for hundreds of years, and if you continue like this, I will help you." ”

"You mean...... Do you want to help our tribe? ”

Noga thought for a moment and asked, "How many people are in your tribe?" ”

Thinking of this, the tribal boy lowered his head and said sadly, "I am the only warrior left......"

"That's enough, just have you, what's the name of your tribe?"

"Mantei ......"

"Good!" Nuojia snapped his fingers with confidence and said, "Then I will build a country that unites the continent and call it Wanting Kingdom!" ”

More than 1,800 years later, Wanting Kingdom, outside the main gate of Yayu City, the royal city.

The sixteen-year-old brown-haired girl looked up at the towering statues on both sides of the gate of Yayu City, and stopped, as did the long-haired white woman who accompanied her, knowing that the girl was not ready.

"What you say is true, right?" The girl looked at the pair of statues more than ten meters high and asked the white-haired woman beside her.

"Hmm."

"As long as ...... As long as I defeat those three people and become queens, can I save everyone? ”

"Hmm."

“……”

The girl turned around, looked at the group of civilians who followed her behind her, and looked at the expectation and reverence in their eyes, she finally made up her mind, straightened out her somewhat tattered Yao costume, combed her short brown hair with her fingers, raised her head and chest, and walked forward.

The civilians who followed the girl gathered outside Yayu Castle, surrounded by water, and they could not see what was happening inside, they could only listen to the various loud noises caused by the spiritual arts. I thought it would be a protracted battle, after all, the girl needed to defeat three royal descendants like her in order to become the rightful queen of the Wanting Kingdom, but she didn't expect that less than five minutes later, Yayu City, which was constantly loud, had already quieted down.

Everyone poked their heads out and looked into Yayu City, and after waiting for a while, the white-haired woman who had just been with the girl walked outside the gate of Yayu City, and used wind spirit magic to convey her will to every corner of the country, and she announced: "The descendant of the royal family, Nogarashi, who was elected by the commoners, will be the sixty-first monarch of Wanting from now on. ”

The crowd erupted in enthusiastic cheers and wept of joy - they knew that only this sixteen-year-old descendant of the royal family, who represented the commoners, became queen and suppressed the three clans vying for power with her mighty power, could stop the decade-long civil war and bring true peace to the country.

This is the kingdom of Wanting, an ancient country that has lasted for nearly 2,000 years and still stands in the east of the continent, under the rule of the 61st monarch Nogaraxi ushered in decades of prosperity and stability, and the rapid progress brought the country to an unprecedented atmosphere, which lasted for more than 20 years after the death of Nogara, until the summer of the year when the son of Nogaraxi and the 62nd monarch Nogarashi was established as the prince......

Chapter 1 The Island

The gray sky, the heavy clouds blurred the white outline of the mountains in the distance, the old woman gently leaned on the shoulder of the old man beside her, looking at the gray in the distance, and even the sound of the wind did not dare to disturb the tranquility of the moment.

"I ...... In this life, it is inevitable that there will be some ...... Regret ......"

The old woman dragged her last breath, as if she was saying it to the old man next to her, and it seemed to be saying it to the mountains, but with this sentence, she no longer spoke, and only her gradually weak breath remained in the gray and white world.

The mountains in front of her are getting farther and farther away, so far that only a piece of white is left, looking at this gray world, she suddenly heard a girl's voice in her ears, calling: "Yuyang, Yuyang!" ”

[Wanting Chronicle 1957, Spring, Nianping Island. 】

She gradually woke up from this gray-white dream, opened her eyes, and saw clearly that the person who called her in front of her was a close friend who grew up together and now works together, Shu Yu.

"It's you, Shu Yu...... Hmm, it's dawning? Yuyang patted her cheek, trying to wake up from the real dream she had just had—she didn't know how many times she had returned to this gray dream.

Seeing Yu Yang's tired face, and the thin blanket was casually draped on the sofa, Shu Yu sighed and said, "Why are you here all night?" Look at you, this dark green under your eyes is not a joke, it's scary to look at. ”

Yu Yang got up from the sofa, put away the thin blanket, walked to the sink and took out the spare toiletries, and said vaguely while brushing his teeth: "I always felt some inspiration yesterday, so I just drew all night." ”

Hearing that she had finally drawn the pattern, Shu Yu was so excited that he searched all over the room and asked, "Really!?" Great, let me see where it is! ”

Yu Yang looked at her from the mirror and said, "You don't have to look for it, I lost it." I thought I had good inspiration, but I didn't have a ...... to look at."

"Huh?!" Hearing that Yu Yang had lost the pattern that he had drawn with great difficulty, Shu Yu suddenly drooped half of his head in a deflated manner, walked up to Yu Yang, and said anxiously, "How many times has Brother Jiang said it, this selection is different from the usual petty fights, it is Mrs. Qingning, the lord of our Qingmo territory, who selected the royal clothing officer, you are the best dresser in our hospital, if you don't hand it in on time, then we are all finished!" What time is it today? A few days to go......"

"There are five days left, and if there are no more drawings today, it is estimated that it will be too late to make clothes." Yu Yang didn't know that time was pressing, nor was she deliberately delaying, but she had an unspoken concern in her heart, thinking of this, she tentatively asked Shu Yu again, "Or ...... I didn't attend? ”

Hearing the three words of not participating, Shu Yu's tone became even more eager: "No! If you don't participate, Brother Jiang will be angry. Don't you want to be Mrs. Qingning's royal dress officer? ”

Yu Yang was a little helpless, but more deflated, she took Shu Yu's hand, frowned and persuaded softly: "There are thousands of Yao costume painters in Wanting Country, how long have I been in the industry, how can I compare with those old painters?" Besides......"

"Besides?"

Yu Yang seemed to hesitate a little when she said this, and Shu Yu looked at her, waiting for her to continue.

"Besides...... Don't you think it's strange? There are many famous masters in the Wangcheng Garment Bureau, even if Mrs. Qingning is tired of Wangcheng's style, there are also famous artists with different styles in the big cities of Qingmo, why bother to make a big deal and select without a threshold in the whole territory of Qingmo? ”

Before Yuyang could finish speaking, Shu Yu hurriedly continued her words and said, "It is precisely like this that reflects Mrs. Qingning's kindness to the people of Qingmo Territory. Mrs. Qingning is the only eldest princess of our Wanting Kingdom, the patriarch of the Ji clan, the lord of our Qingmo territory, and the minister of politics and law at the head of the six ministers, she can be said to be a figure above tens of millions of people under one person in our Wanting country, and Mrs. Qingning's face is the face of Wanting country. ”

"Really?" Yu Yang watched Shu Yu's eyebrows dance and said for a long time, but she was persuaded a little, seeing that Yu Yang seemed to be a little loose, Shu Yu struck while the iron was hot, walked behind her, and while helping her pinch her shoulders, he pushed her to sit down in front of the desk, and continued to persuade: "You, stop thinking nonsense, the opportunity is right in front of you, hurry, if you can't draw it today, we really won't have time to make clothes!" ”

After finishing speaking, Shu Yu jokingly held the black charcoal pen with both hands, pinched his throat and said strangely: "The best Yao costume painter on Ping Island in our year, Lord Yi Yuyang!" The hope of the whole island is in you! ”

Shu Yu's funny appearance made Yu Yang couldn't help laughing, took the pen and said with a smile: "You have a lot of tricks." Well, don't worry, I'm sure I'll be able to draw a satisfactory picture today! ”

After speaking, Yu Yang opened the picture book and stared intently at the pure white paper to think.

Spring is especially precious to this remote island in the south of the continent, and the Nianping Dress Courtyard where Yuyang is located is a sunroom built on the seaside garden, and her table is set in front of the window, and the grass warbler Fei Fei looking out of the window at this time always makes her smile and wonder why spring is so short.

On such a non-stuffy day, time seems to pass faster, and her brushes rustle on the paper, but they are only half-finished products, and there is never a satisfactory finished manuscript. The colleagues in the dress courtyard came here and were busy for most of the day, until they all returned home, and she still sat in front of the window, leaving a table full of semi-finished products.

The sun sank to the bottom of the sea, and the last golden afterglow dissipated, she still couldn't complete the pattern she wanted, so she could only put down her paintbrush and rest for a while.

Brother Jiang glanced at Shu Yu, but was pushed back by Shu Yu's big eyes, Nunu mouthed, asked him to act on his own, Brother Jiang couldn't resist her, so he had to give her a roll of his eyes, piled up a smile on his face, and said to Yu Yang with a smile: "Yu Yang, how is it?" Pattern...... Is it still going well? ”

Yuyang heard Brother Jiang's voice, and turned around to find that the people in the dress courtyard had already left, leaving only the two of them, as if waiting for her to complete the drawing, she asked, "Are you waiting for me?" ”

"Huh?" Asked by Yu Yang, Brother Jiang hurriedly looked back at Shu Yu, who was sitting on the side playing with his nails, Shu Yu was stunned, and hurriedly smiled and said to Yu Yang: "Yes, I still want to wait for you to finish painting, let's go to Brother Jiang's house for dinner!" ”

Hearing Shu Yuyuan coming over, Brother Jiang hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes!" Yes, we ...... We'll wait for you to go to dinner together. ”

Yuyang suddenly felt warm, stood up, leaned half of his body on the back of the chair, and said to the two of them with a smile: "Don't wait for me, Shu Yu, you and Brother Jiang go, I'm just a little bit, I'll go back after painting tonight, and at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, we'll go buy fabrics together." ”

"But ......" Shu Yu was still a little worried, "can you finish painting tonight?" ”

"It's almost, don't worry, you'll see my pattern tomorrow morning!" Yu Yang was afraid that they wouldn't believe it, so he patted his chest and assured him, looking confident.

Shu Yu and Brother Jiang glanced at each other, as if they were talking to something with their eyes, and Brother Jiang relieved himself: "Okay, then let's go to dinner first, you have to pay attention to rest, Yuyang." ”

"Well, definitely!"

Seeing off the two of them, Yu Yang sat back in his seat, looked at the half-finished pattern of the table, grabbed her long brown curls in annoyance, and wailed to himself: "I really am! Can't draw! ”

After venting for a while, Yuyang looked up at the stars in the sky, listening to the gentle sound of the waves crashing on the beach outside the window, she gradually quieted down, and only let out a long sigh.

Now, she really doesn't want to continue to slow down the progress of the dress house, and she doesn't know why she is in such a bad state - when she usually makes Yao costumes for the residents of the island, she is constantly inspired, and the residents especially like the Yao costumes she draws.

In the long history of the Wanting Kingdom, everyone needs to wear different colors of Yao clothes according to their own class, since Queen Nogalexi ascended the throne, commoners no longer need to be bound by the rules of clothing, they can wear different styles and colors of regular clothes as they like. Nowadays, civilians only wear Yao costumes on various festivals and special occasions.

In her heart, the Yao costume has an important commemorative significance for the commoners, and the Yao costume on the nobles is just a bondage. She became a Yao costume painter, determined to make only a few sets of important clothes for ordinary people in her life, and making Yao clothes for nobles deviated from her original intention, so naturally there was no inspiration at all.

By the time the moon had wandered to the other side of the beach, she had finally finished the drawing, and although she was still dissatisfied, there was no way back. She carefully put the drawing paper in her bag, closed the doors and windows, left the dress courtyard, rode the small bicycle set up at the door, and blew the sea breeze all the way in the direction of home.

The small island is small, far from the mainland, surrounded by a vast sea, and Yuyang's home is on the other side of the coast, and it is only twenty or thirty minutes by bike. It was past one o'clock in the evening, and there was still a light left for her at the door of the house, so she parked her bicycle and crept into the house, afraid of waking her parents, who had fallen asleep.

Back in the room, she couldn't resist the temptation of the bed after not going home for a few days to get a good night's sleep, so she threw herself into the quilt with a thud, and before she could rub off a shoe with her ankle, she was already asleep.

After a good night's sleep, when she woke up again, she had already changed into a clean pajama and lay comfortably under the covers. She sat up, yawned heavily, washed up, rubbed her sleepy eyes and went downstairs, and came to the dining room, where she saw that her mother, Mrs. Yi, was still busy with breakfast.

"Morning, Mom." Yu Yang picked up the apple on the table and nibbled on it, greeted Mrs. Yi, and sat down at the table to wait for a delicious breakfast.

Mrs. Yi asked, "It's still early, what time is it, when did you come back yesterday?" ”

"A little more, like. Oh, you changed my clothes, thanks! ”

"What clothes?"

Hearing Mrs. Yi's answer, Yu Yang was stunned, so frightened that he forgot to chew the apple in his mouth, looked at Mrs. Yi blankly, and swallowed the apple for a long time and said, "No...... Did you change it for me? ”
