"If that's the case, I'd like to wait until then to go to the street. There will be more fun if there are more people." Shen Xinghe said.

"Okay." The man looked back at him.

The two rode out of the palace gate and came to the main street of Illusory Night City. This is the most prosperous street in the city, connecting the city gate and the palace. Shen Xinghe remembered that he and An came here once on a rest day. It was daytime, and the scenery was slightly different from this time.

Speaking of the trade in Magic Night City, it feels a bit like ancient China. There are also places like silk shops, silver shops, and jade shops here. Of course, they have their own names. Shen Xinghe will often find things that people in this world are very familiar with. It is unheard of for me, such as magic stones that can be used to increase magic power, and storage rings like rings and bracelets, storage rings, etc.

Because it is not yet completely dark, the lights on the street are not very bright, there are not too many pedestrians, and there is no such effect as the hustle and bustle of people.However, there are more than twice as many stalls now than when Shen Xinghe came, so it seems a bit crowded.Shen Xinghe also knew that because of today's grand event, many merchants gave up their original stalls to people from other places, leaving only stalls that could represent the city's special products.

The two of them didn't wander around the city, but went straight to the place where Xido and his soldiers rested temporarily. This is a place where Magic Night City communicates with representatives of other city-states, a bit like embassies of various countries on Earth.Because of this grand event in Magic Night City, some other regions also sent special envoys, and Xido was in charge of receiving them.

"How is the situation now?" After handing over the horse to the soldiers, He Ningzhou took Shen Xinghe to meet Xido who was in the pavilion at this time.

"Everything is normal." Sido's complexion and voice remained the same as before.

"Okay," He Ningzhou nodded, "Then I would like to trouble you to pay more attention. I will go up with His Highness to rest for a while, and then go out when there are more people."

Sido understands.He Ningzhou beckoned Shen Xinghe to follow behind him.

Upstairs is a temporary lounge for VIPs, and the two of them entered a spare room.The space here is not very large, but it is exquisitely arranged. There are sofa-like seats, which look soft and comfortable; there is also a small bookshelf, and a small vase is placed on the low table in front of the seats. Facing the main street of Magic Night City, you can see the bustling scenery on the street.

Shen Xinghe sat down on the sofa, and that person sat beside him.

"By the way," Shen Xinghe thought of one thing, and turned to look at the people next to him, "Did you also arrange the previous grand events like this? I mean, An and Xilai are in charge of guarding, and you and Bao are free?" If so In this way, it seems too bullying.

"That's not true," the man smiled, "Always let them have a chance to go shopping. We arrange it alternately. For example, next year it may be me and Anlai guarding, and the next year it may be me and Paul. .However, that Xi is not interested in going shopping even during the rest time." He seemed a little helpless as he spoke.

Shen Xinghe understood it very well, just smiled, without making any comments, and continued: "Then let's buy something later, I just noticed that I don't seem to have any money on me." Speaking of "money", Shen Xinghe I have only seen their appearance in books, but have not had a chance to see their true appearance.

"I have it, but I don't need it." He Ningzhou held back a smile, "That's right, all the products tonight are provided to guests for free, and you can take them away as long as you like, and those foods can also Feel free to taste it. Don't worry," the man seemed to see that Shen Xinghe wanted to ask a question immediately after hearing his words, and explained directly: "There will never be a phenomenon of 'scrambling' on the street. Everyone chooses what they need. Things and food can be tasted with your own tableware. Of course, if an item is very novel and popular, many people may take it away, and if you go late, you won’t be able to see it.”

After hearing what he said, Shen Xinghe had a lot of good feelings for people in this world.

"However," he still had a puzzled question, "Businessmen from other cities and countries have brought their goods over thousands of miles, so it's not a good idea to just give them away for free?"

He Ningzhou seemed to have expected that he would ask such a question, and explained calmly: "Every foreign businessman can come here," he referred to this embassy, ​​"register with the person in charge, and the person in charge of Illusion Night City The treasury will reimburse all their travel expenses, and they will also pay them [-]% of the amount for their products, and the other [-]% is a little thought they gave to all guests."

"I see." Shen Xinghe liked this approach very much.

Tonight's Fantasy Night City is extremely lively.

When the two of Shen Xinghe came to the street again, it was completely dark, and the lights on the street were brightly lit. Those lights that were infused with magic power were not at all bright at this time, giving people a clear and real feeling. Fully open your heart and fully participate in this event.Relatively speaking, the sky tonight is very pure, and the dots of stars seem to be much dimmer.

When his eyes inadvertently came into contact with the crowd, Shen Xinghe suddenly had a feeling - there were a lot of pedestrians at this time, but the street didn't seem crowded and noisy, every stall felt very lively, Shen Xinghe could see people The slight smiles on their faces showed that they appreciated this event very much.Because of the light, Shen Xinghe couldn't see people's hair and eye colors clearly. Their hairstyles and clothes were still very different from his original world, which was rather in the style of medieval Europe, and there were no modern facilities at that time. , but makes people feel rustic and leisurely.

He was walking with great interest, looking around when the people around him suddenly said, "By the way, there is something I should give you."

"What is it?" Shen Xinghe looked up at him.

He Ningzhou stopped in his tracks, and Shen Xinghe stood in front of him. He held up a hand and chanted silently, and saw that there was another one in his palm out of thin air... Shen Xinghe couldn't see what it was for the time being. , but was very surprised by what was in front of him.

Can he conjure things up like magic?Shen Xinghe was very puzzled, but suddenly had an idea - by the way, there is something like a storage ring in this world, this person's action just now should be to take out the things he stored.Shen Xinghe carefully looked at his palm, it was a small transparent diamond with a needle-like structure behind it, much like the earrings in the previous world.

"This is a storage earring," the man explained: "It is worn on the ear as an ornament, and it can also store items. Its space is unlimited, as long as it can be moved and cannot breathe, anything Everything can be put in." Speaking of this, the man looked at Shen Xinghe, and his smile deepened slightly, "This is for you, please let me give it to you. At this grand event, you can put anything you like, of course you need to put it in." Those who recite the spell, I will tell you now." After speaking, the man handed the earrings to Shen Xinghe.

After listening to him finish the incantation, Shen Xinghe stared intently at the thing in his hand. At this moment, he took a closer look and found that its texture should be the same as the ring He Ningzhou gave him. It is a kind of blue diamond. If it is in the daytime, it should be very beautiful. Effect.Shen Xinghe in that world had never worn earrings, but he did not reject them. Speaking of which, he really didn't know if he had pierced ears to wear them.

"Come on, let me put it on for you." Seeing that Shen Xinghe stretched out his other hand unconsciously to caress his earlobe, the man smiled and stretched out his hand to take the earring, bent slightly and put it on his right ear.

Shen Xinghe touched his right ear, and he could feel the texture and temperature of the diamond; he probed his left ear again, and felt a little depression in the same place, which should be a small hole. It turned out that the owner of this body had previously Just get your ears pierced?But, wouldn't it be strange for me to only wear one earring now?
Putting down his hands, Shen Xinghe shifted his eyes to the person in front of him. He wanted to say a lot, but the first thing he said was: "Does it look good? Isn't it weird to only wear one side?"

The man's expression showed a little comfort, and the corners of his lips raised a little more, "It's very nice, and it's not surprising, many people wear it like this." When He Ningzhou was speaking, he kept looking at Shen Xinghe: because he is not yet an adult, The overly beautiful face of the person in front of him even made it difficult to distinguish his gender. With the red hair against it, the earrings now added a bit of temperament to him, which should be heroic. Although it is rare, it is hard to ignore.

This way, he is even more attractive.

"Why didn't Bao want to give me something directly? Also, why didn't he give it to me before, but why did he give it to me at this grand event?" In fact, Shen Xinghe has another idea, that is, he has congratulatory gifts now. For gifts from Ningzhou, An and Bao, it is natural to wonder if the last person will also give something and the content of the gift. Of course, it is not easy to ask such questions.

He Ningzhou signaled Shen Xinghe to follow his footsteps, and the two walked on the street again, He Ningzhou said: "Because you were still young, you didn't have anything to keep specially, and you only needed people who accompanied you during grand events Just hold it for you. As for why he didn’t hand it over to you in person…” He spread his hands, showing that the reason is not complicated, “Because he wanted to send you off last night, and you weren’t by his side, and he wanted to This is not an expensive gift, so I entrusted it to me." After speaking, he smiled again, looked down at Shen Xinghe, with some malicious intentions, "Are you thinking that the three of us have given you something, hope What will I give you?"

"..." Shen Xinghe couldn't help looking away, as if being poked at the center, "No. Well, then please thank Bao for me for the gift, I like it very much."

"Okay," He Ningzhou nodded, "Is there anything you particularly want and want to eat? Or just take a look first?"

Only then did Shen Xinghe start to pay attention to the stalls around him. At this moment, he could understand the feelings of those who like to shop, because the things on each stall looked so attractive.

"What's that?" Shen Xinghe pointed to a decoration that looked like a coral tree. Although it looked a lot like coral in appearance, the texture was quite different, like glass but faintly glowing.The workmanship of this tree is very exquisite, lifelike and vivid.

"It was carved out of the magic stone that is rich in Mount Bat Yala. Because the magic stone is very hard, there are not many people in the world who know this kind of carving technique. Do you know where Mount Bat Yala is?" He Ningzhou asked Shen Xinghe , there was a look in his eyes that tested him.

Shen Xinghe thought for a while, because he only came to this world for more than a month, and although he learned a lot in the culture class, he only learned all aspects of this country. This Bat Yala Mountain is not located in the territory, so Shen Xinghe knew nothing about it.

"I don't know." Shen Xinghe's voice lowered, feeling a little disappointed.

The man did not tease Shen Xinghe about this point, but told him: "Mount Bat Yala is located in the territory of the Libis country. This country has a very good relationship with our country. Because it is rich in magic stones, it is popular all over the world. The love of A and O, so the trade is very developed. In recent decades, people who have lived in Libis will bring carvings made of Bat Yala magic stones to the grand events of Magic Night City. Many people like to put these carvings on In my own room, it can be used as a decoration, and it can also play an auxiliary role in the practice.”

"I see."

"Then, do you want to take one back and put it in the bedroom?" He Ningzhou suggested.

"Okay." Shen Xinghe smiled and rolled his eyes, as if he had won a huge bargain, He Ningzhou couldn't help shaking his head, and the two walked to the stall, only to see that the boss was a very kind Chinese. The young man was chatting with other guests, and several girls were also discussing which stone carving they should choose.

"Two, take a look." The boss greeted He Ningzhou and Shen Xinghe when he saw them.

Shen Xinghe nodded to him, carefully looked at all the carvings, raised his head and asked He Ningzhou which one he should choose.

He Ningzhou thought for a while and picked up a small tree-like sculpture. Shen Xinghe couldn't remember the name of this tree for a while, "Just this one, this is the Roy tree, you know the flower language of Roy flower is What?" When he asked this sentence at this time, his eyes seemed to hide a lot of things, and he returned to the feeling of being surrounded by clouds and mist.

"I don't know." Shen Xinghe suddenly felt that although he had read a lot of books and memorized a lot of content, he was still very different from the person in front of him.

"Roy's flower language is 'eternal love', and it is also my favorite flower." He Ningzhou said.

Shen Xinghe's heart trembled, and he took over the exquisitely carved tree, emerald green color, faint light, it looked lush and leafy, unlike any tree Shen Xinghe had seen, it did not have carved flowers , so Shen Xinghe didn't know what a flower with such a beautiful flower language would look like, and felt a little regretful, but also very looking forward to it.

"Boss, I want this." Shen Xinghe said to the boss.

"This guest really has vision." The boss's expression showed a bit of playfulness, "Since you don't know Roy's flower language, then you must not know what it means to give Roy flowers."

"Excuse me, do you have any explanation?" Shen Xinghe really didn't know, there was an urgency in the question that he didn't notice.

The boss didn't answer him, but only pointed out: "Then when someone gives you Roy flowers, you will naturally know."

Shen Xinghe didn't ask any more questions, thanked the boss, and then turned to He Ningzhou with the tree in his hands, the undisguised gloomy expression made the person in front of him smile once again.

"You can put it into your storage earrings, it is the first thing you store, and it is also very commemorative, isn't it?" He Ningzhou joked.

Shen Xinghe touched the corners of his lips, did not answer, silently recited the spell that the man taught him, and the thing that was still in the palm of his hand disappeared instantly, Shen Xinghe put down his hand, looked at the person in front of him, "Say, give it away What exactly does the Roy flower represent?"

The man had the same smirk on his face as the boss, and he didn't answer directly, "Well, like the boss said, you will know when someone sends you off, or you can ask Ann for advice, I guess he should I will teach you, although I have never heard about Roy flowers in previous adult assessments." Having said that, he couldn't help thinking that one day the person in front of him would be presented with Roy flowers Why, thinking of such a scene is not interesting but... I can't tell, even if I don't like it, it is hard to imagine such a scene.

Shen Xinghe was very dissatisfied by his words, so he didn't notice his expression, thinking that these people were clearly bullying him on purpose.However, since they said so, it means that the situation of being presented with Roy flowers should be very ambiguous, and it is worthy of being joked by bystanders, so what will happen? ... Shen Xinghe thought about it carefully, in short, it would not cause any harm or loss to himself.

Thinking of this, Shen Xinghe didn't worry about it anymore, and then thought of another thing, and said briskly: "By the way, I heard that there will be a fruit called Muxiangguo and brocade silk at the grand event. I don't know where they are. place?"

He Ningzhou also put away his own thoughts, "Then I'll take you to look for it, the things An nominated are indeed very discerning."

……

This night, Shen Xinghe had a great time.When I finally found Muxiangguo, I realized that it was really popular. The original five large fruits were now only the size of an apple, and they were orange in color. The color alone made people salivate.Shen Xinghe regrets that he didn't see its whole picture. It is said that Mu Xiangguo is usually the size of a watermelon.Can't wait to ask He Ningzhou next to him if he brought tableware, and then cut off a piece and put it in his mouth even more urgently. It tasted sweet, cool and delicious, very tempting. Shen Xinghe felt that he really had to try his best to control the rest of the fruit The urge to send into the belly.

"Try some too." Shen Xinghe still remembered the people around him, "It's delicious."

He Ningzhou smiled, "I don't need it, I have eaten a lot in the past years, so let's leave it to those who have never eaten and those who like to eat. Let's go," he greeted: "I will take you to eat other things, tonight There are a lot of delicious food."

"Okay." Shen Xinghe hurriedly followed.

So, for more than an hour, Shen Xinghe couldn't remember how many delicacies he tasted, nor how many times he involuntarily expressed praise, until...

"Wow, this is delicious too." Shen Xinghe put a piece of meat that was said to be roasted in a very special way into his mouth, and then said the sentence that He Ningzhou knew he would say without thinking. Then, shaking his head again, He Ningzhou thought, although sometimes he thinks this person's ability and eyesight are good, but such a childish personality really makes people's expectations of him greatly discounted...

At this moment, a sudden incident caught his attention, and Shen Xinghe also raised his head at this moment to ask him if he would like to try it, but he saw him looking towards the southern sky, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his expression was very dignified.

"What's wrong?" Shen Xinghe asked subconsciously.

"The Star Palace will actually send out a dangerous signal." He Ningzhou recalled the five-color sparks that had just been seen in the southern sky, which was a unique signal for the Star Palace. His voice became low, showing that this time it was unexpected The incident made him very unhappy, "Your Highness," he said urgently, "I'm going to the Star Palace now, do you want to go with me?"

"Yes!" The matter was urgent, Shen Xinghe answered without even thinking, and the meat in his hand had already disappeared without a trace.

"Okay. Come up, I'll carry you on my back." After He Ningzhou finished speaking, he squatted down with his back to Shen Xinghe, and the latter immediately lay on his back.

"My speed will be very fast, please be careful, Your Highness." After saying these words, He Ningzhou ran like a gust of wind on the street. The speed was so fast that many passers-by thought it was a sudden strong wind.

The main street is far away from the Xingdian, because He Ningzhou's fast running did not waste much time. Along the way, Shen Xinghe lay on that person's back, and the strong wind that he had never felt seemed to tear him apart. He could only try his best to bury his head on that person's shoulder. Many thoughts flashed through his mind. He knew that the Star Palace was where the high priest was, but he had never been there, let alone saw the high priest. myself.Also, Fantasy Night City has been peaceful for decades, and there has never been an incident of foreign invasion. Why this time, on the day of the grand event held every five years, it was the Star Palace that sent out a dangerous signal?Was it a sneak attack?But what would be his purpose?
Rao this incident is not simple, Shen Xinghe should be thinking and worrying but at the same time he can't help but think that there will be that kind of reassuring feeling on that person's back at this time, he will be the first to find danger when he finds danger. Is it a proof of responsibility to rush there in a short time?
The two rushed to the Star Palace, and saw a lot of soldiers surrounded outside from a distance. It seemed that other people had heard the alarm and sent troops here.

He Ningzhou slowly slowed down his pace, stopped at the door and put down the person on his back, while Shen Xinghe unconsciously took a step back when he got down to the ground, reaching out to stroke his heart to ease its violent beating.

"How's the situation? Did you catch the attacker?" He Ningzhou asked the soldier guarding the gate. From his clothes, he could tell that he was the army led by Xido.

"I caught it. Lord Xido and Lord Anlais rushed over when they saw the alarm. At that time, the five attackers had not had time to escape. Now Lord Anlais is talking to Lord Lulis in Yaohui Room." said the soldier.
