Chapter 353 Secret
Just as she looked at him blankly, Yu Hongye raised his hand and pointed something in the sky to her.
"Look at those golden gears and chains above. They are what drive them. They are the reason why the transparent floating pillars you just saw and the one in West Village can automatically deliver food to the table."
"……Oh."
Bai Lingshan's shocked eyes moved over the gears of various sizes, trying her best to see everything here.
There are indeed these things on the wall of Xiyi Village and in the golden cottage where she lives, so these things are the characteristics of the Kingdom of Jingdu.
Bai Lingshan nodded in understanding and looked back at Yu Hongye: "Is it the same as the mushroom sign at Jingdu Country?"
The mushroom bus stop in the Kingdom of Jingdu was the first place she discovered gears. Thinking about it now, it was really bold to exist.
Yu Hongye did not deny: "So you know why Jingguo does not use fire?"
Bai Lingshan nodded vigorously, "This place is actually all made of gold."
Then, he looked at the "priceless" golden flower in shock.
"…No wonder fire is forbidden. No wonder it's a secret."
If someone discovered this, they would dig this place out completely.
"Gold is worth a lot of money."
Bai Lingshan's little realization really left Yu Hongye speechless.
"Why, do you still want to use your willow-leaf knife to sharpen the wall?"
Bai Lingshan panicked when she heard that, and immediately smiled innocently: "No... No, why would I do that kind of thing."
She was just thinking about it at most...
Bai Lingshan then looked solemn, determined to make him feel that she was a very serious person.
Yu Hongye just snorted and walked a few steps to the side and said:
"Okay, I've told you the secret. You can just stay here and look at these flowers for the rest of the time. We can't keep our promise for next summer, so you can only look at them by yourself first."
Bai Lingshan was startled again, and the pretense she had just shown disappeared in an instant.
"what?"
What is he saying?
Bai Lingshan quickly captured it in her mind, and a faint memory emerged.
"It's December now. If it were summer, we would be able to see a sea of flowers."
"It's okay, we can do it again next summer."
It was at that time, when six people were sitting around having dinner at the top of Linshan Mountain, that Yu Hongye responded to Yin Sha's words.
She had always thought that he just said it casually, but she didn't expect...
"..."
As the topic came up, sadness appeared on Bai Lingshan's face.
Unsealing the seal of Fu Ling would mean the end of friendship with Han Chenfeng, so it would be impossible to go to Linshan to see the sea of flowers again.
Bai Lingshan sighed and wondered why she was always sighing lately.
"What's wrong? Are you moved by my words?"
Just by hearing Yu Hongye's curious words, she came out of her dazed state. Then, in order to prevent her sentimental mentality from reappearing again, she had to go to the golden flower alone.
In the golden "Golden Flower Forest", Bai Lingshan walked past one flower stem after another. As she spent more time wandering inside, she began to have the illusion that she was a dwarf among the flowers...
Ugh.
In fact, she is indeed a dwarf in this golden flower.
"There are no flowers in the human world that are taller than humans." Bai Lingshan couldn't help but complain. Then, she saw Yu Hongye waiting for her and asked curiously:
"Is it called the Golden Flower? It feels like there are so many."
Yu Hongye just nodded, not sharing her curiosity at all.
"Yes, this flower is called the Golden Flower. However, in my observation, I found that it never fades and grows evenly. Every year it blooms one more new flower than the previous year. The 784 floors of the Clock Tower correspond exactly to the 784 flowers here, so I call them the Floor Flowers of the Clock Tower."
Bai Lingshan said "Oh" softly when she heard this. When she went in to look at the flowers, she did see strange marks similar to count marks engraved on the flower stems.
However, it is really spectacular to have more than 700 giant flowers here.
Wait!
Bai Lingshan suddenly realized something.
He said!
"It's been more than 780 years since Jingguo?"
"Yes, is it strange?" Yu Hongye asked awkwardly.
Bai Lingshan quickly shook her head: "...No...not strange."
If the yellow-haired monster was born before the establishment of the Kingdom of Jingdu, then...
She seemed to have discovered something extraordinary.
At this moment, Yu Hongye suddenly stared at a big golden flower beside her. Bai Lingshan was startled and looked over.
However, the flower was normal and there was nothing wrong with it.
"...?"
Bai Lingshan turned her head to look at him in confusion, but he still stared at the flower.
"..."
What's going on? Bai Lingshan frowned and moved a few steps to the side, keeping a distance from this strange-looking flower.
Perhaps her movements were too big and startled him. Yu Hongye retracted his gaze and smiled ashamedly: "Sorry, I was reminded of some past events."
Before she could reply, Yu Hongye took out the red silk staff.
The next second, Bai Lingshan was in his teleportation array and returned to her golden nest.
At this time, Yu Hongye put the staff under his body and looked at the timekeeping plate in the house.
The crystal leaves growing on the timepiece were clearly inferior to the unusual brilliance of the golden flower.
"That's not a secret. I have a sister who also likes flowers. However, I left there when I was very young and lost contact with that sister."
"But it just so happens that both of you have the word 'ling' in your names. People often say that if two people have similar characters in their names, they will also have similar hobbies. If you get to know each other, you might become good friends."
Yu Hongye smiled and frowned again, "Forget it, you two may not meet, just think of it as my overthinking."
"……Oh."
Looking at Yu Hongye, whose temperament was changing suddenly, Bai Lingshan said "oh" quietly, but, did the information he suddenly told her sound familiar?
"Is it... Huan Qingling?"
When she mentioned the surname Huan in the demon layer, did a demon mention Huan Qingling?
Also, the Lord God went to Tianyi Country and gave birth to a daughter named Huan Qingling, so Huan Qingling is his sister...
ah……?
She discovered something amazing again!
Ugh……
She's really good at snooping around.
"..."
As for Yu Hongye, he was completely stunned after hearing Bai Lingshan say the name Huan Qingling.
If Bai Lingshan's expression hadn't been too shocked, Yu Hongye wouldn't have wanted to say anything more.
"Did those guys from the demon layer say that? How... did you find out about her?"
"..."
Bai Lingshan seemed to realize something and lowered her head consciously.
Seeing her silence, Yu Hongye smiled helplessly: "I said that the demon layer doesn't have any treasure, why do you always go there? It turns out that it has become a place for you to secretly learn the history of Jingguo. No wonder coming here is like going home, everything is familiar to you. Alas, I underestimated you."
"……gone."
