Volume 2 The Triple Trial and the Awakened Eye Chapter 70 The Wish Under the Rose Curtain Wall
Before leaving, Alan and the others were still a little worried, such a long distance, and an uphill road, the body might be a little overwhelmed with such a large amount of exercise at once, but everything here was so new to them, they stopped and stopped along the way, and before they knew it, it was almost two hours.
Compared to the previous section of the road, there are significantly fewer side roads in this area. There were more and more people, and there were so many people that I could barely see the shops on either side.
It may be that the surrounding environment is too noisy, and it is already mid-September, which makes Alan feel a little hot.
"It's almost there!" said Riel, who was taller and looked forward for a moment with his hands on the pergola, "There's still ...... from here Less than a hundred meters!"
He also pointed excitedly there, but could barely be seen except him.
However, after a few more steps, they found that the street seemed to come to an end, and not far in front of them, the place where the shops should have been stored, stood two high walls, forming a passageway, which continued to spread inward. Between the entrance of the aisle and the street is an east-west road, which divides them into two parts like some kind of boundary.
"Go through this hallway and you're inside. Riel said and led the way.
There were people coming and going in the hallway, but compared to the noise just now, it was a lot quieter, as if most people were consciously silent.
Occasionally, horse-drawn carriages would come in, but fortunately, this aisle was wider than the previous shopping street, and even if the four carriages were to drive side by side, it would not be a problem for them to go side by side, so Alan and the others just had to keep to the right as much as they could.
The aisle was not long, and they soon saw the exit, and as soon as they reached the exit, they smelled a refreshing fragrance. However, because there seemed to be a lot of people in the square, he could only vaguely see the situation inside in the intermittent flow of people.
"It's ...... The aroma of roses. Alan couldn't help but take a deep breath and walked out of the aisle quickly.
Walking through the crowd, the sight in front of him made him unforgettable for the rest of his life.
It is a circular square with an exit from the east, west, north and south, and at the very edge is a ring road, and dozens of winding paths lead to a circular flower bed in the middle, surrounded by a high fence. Of course, it's not surprising if that's all there is to it, but it's a different story if the walls are full of roses...... What kind of wall is this...... Red, yellow, pink, white and other roses of different colors are in full bloom, and the green leaves are more delicate than one after another, like diamonds of various colors spread on a green curtain. And it seems that because of the water droplets on these petals, they shine in the sunlight.
"No wonder everyone yearns for this place......" Alan took another deep breath, and the rich aroma that came to his nose actually made him a little intoxicated.
What surprised him even more was that for some reason, these roses were actually opened one by one, densely covered with walls, which made him can't help but get closer. After looking closely for a while, Alan noticed something - these roses were different from the ones they usually saw, they had no branches. No, to be precise, they don't bloom on branches, but on vines, like morning glories. When he looked up one of the vines, he saw that it was some extremely rare variety of roses, and they did not have the same branches as the other roses, but slender vines, rooted at the top of the wall, growing downward and crisscrossing like creepers, all forming this strange tapestry of roses.
"I heard that the flowers here have been blessed by the god of flowers, so they are undefeated all year round. "No matter what time of year you come here, you can see it...... And more importantly, they don't invite pesky bees!"
"Unbeaten all year round...... Won't it attract bees?" Hearing this, Alan instantly remembered the Four Seasons Garden in the school, where the flowers also bloom all year round, and there are never bees flying around. Thinking of this, Alan had a point in his heart: "I'm afraid it's not the blessing of the god of flowers, it's probably some rare variety cultivated by the Folvadora family......"
But when the words came to his lips, Alan swallowed again, looked at the others who were also intoxicated, smiled and said nothing.
Well, it seems a bit ...... to say this in this atmosphere Anachronistic?
Not...... Probably......
"Then ...... Make a wish. At this time, Alyssa, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly said.
She had been talking about this place since last year, but it happened that Alan was plotted by those two witches and couldn't move her foot, so she simply stayed in school.
"I heard that the flowers here are very spiritual," said Alyssa......, touching one of the buds, "and if your wish is finally fulfilled, they will bloom." ”
"Really, really?" "Riel stepped forward as well, staring at a bud and looking left and right at the same time, his eyes lit up, "Can I make a wish for a pocket full of gold coins forever......"
"Of course it can't be true...... Alan laughed in his heart, "If it's true, then why do people still work so hard every day, wouldn't it be good if they all crowded here to make wishes......"
"Stop dreaming, this materialistic wish is impossible. Alizabeth glanced at him, looked at the buds in her palms, and said with a serious face, "Only if your sincerity is enough to impress the elves who live in these flowers, will they give you the corresponding blessing." Provided, of course, that your thoughts can be perceived by them. ”
With that, Alyssa closed her eyes.
When Alan heard this, he couldn't help but be a little skeptical.
"If it's really about elves...... Maybe maybe it's possible......" Alan hesitated, and also reached out to the nearest bud, and then closed his eyes in Alyssa's way.
However, after closing his eyes, Alan suddenly hesitated: "So...... What would you like to wish for......"
First, he was very satisfied with his current life, and there was nothing he wanted or wanted to change, and second, he had never been accustomed to pinning this kind of thing on his wishes, and he preferred to trust his own hands in this way, so he had never seriously considered the question of wishes.
"Hmm...... It's probably about the same as a birthday wish......" After hesitating for a long time, Alan finally had some decent ideas, "Since it can't be related to matter, it's about ideals and the future...... Future...... About my future, Ariel's future, and ...... Alyssa and Cynthia...... Then ......"
After a few moments, Eren finally made up his mind.
"I hope that I and the people around me can have a stable life...... And in the end...... can all have a good result......" Alan opened his eyes after making a serious wish.
