Chapter 303 Was This How We Lost the Ancient Book of the Monsters of Wood?
If Lin Luoran knew that the little things she did could lead to what really happened in history, she would be much more cautious.
She grabs the Master of Blue Waves, so Goldie and the cyan little fox are able to escape. They hide closely behind Lin Luoran and look very vigilant. Obviously, they are afraid of the middle-aged man who calls himself the Master of Blue Waves.
After witnessing the chaos just happened in the tower, the high priest is furious. Although his observation of stars in the last hundreds of years improves his ability to concentrate, his temples still jump rapidly.
Who gives them the right to make trouble in the Tower of Babel?
Lin Luoran grabs the Master of Blue Waves tightly while he asks her to pay for the spirit herbs. The two go back step by step and get close to the light of induction. Yang Lisha steps forward to pull them apart. The cyan little fox drags Goldie and rushes to them while crying loudly.
They have three people and two animals now, which exceeds the tower’s requirement of two people in a group. Therefore, Lin Luoran and Yang Lisha, who come from the same place, are divided automatically into one group. The light flashes. The two women and the two animals are sent to the center of the Tower of Babel.
“We can go back through this gate, right?” Lin Luoran can’t believe everything went so easily. No matter the man is Liao or the Master of Blue Waves, he is like a lucky charm sent by G.o.d.
Yang Lisha nods, although it’s a pity that she didn’t learn new skills from her ancestor. In her eyes, cultivation is actually not very important, at least not as important as making Voiddy wake up. If she wants to do so, nothing can happen to Lin Luoran. Only Lin Luoran knows where the last piece of Soul Wood is.
The premise of saving Voiddy is that she and Lin Luoran must go back alive. They don’t care what other rewards the Tower of Babel will give them because they already found the ancient book of the monsters of wood. The book is the best reward.
A shadow suddenly appears on the shrine. The Babylonians standing below create a disturbance.
Amytis slightly opens her mouth with red lips. She can’t believe the person standing at the center of the tower is her makeup artist. Lin Luoran looks down and sees Amytis. They may never see each other again once Lin Luoran opens the gate in front of her. Amytis leaves Lin Luoran a good impression, but Lin Luoran can only find what happened to her one-day friend in books such as The History of the Two Rivers after she gets back to the 21st century.
The Babylonians write their history on clay tablets. Will they be generous and tell more stories about their queen?
Lin Luoran waves at Amytis. A small box falls from Lin Luoran’s hand. Nebuchadnezzar II is about to knock it off when Amytis shouts to him and asks him to catch the box.
It is a marvelous small box that contains pearl powders in various colors. Amytis holds it tightly and waves at Lin Luoran like she just did.
Lin Luoran intends to remind her to be careful of her teacher, but she deems it unnecessary after giving it a second thought. The Median princess who can let Nebuchadnezzar II put many Babylonians in hard labor to build the Hanging Gardens can’t be foolish. Lin Luoran can leave things between Amytis and her teacher to themselves.
The Euphrates River is flowing slowly. Golden wheat is swaying with the wind. This is a season of harvest. Babylon turns into yellow, n.o.ble gold and low-key earth tone colors from both inside and outside. After taking another sip of the air of more than 2,600 Years ago, Lin Luoran and Yang Lisha will go back to where they come from.
Lin Luoran puts her hand on the stone gate. A voice comes from behind. When they stay longer to admire the scenery, the Master of Blue Waves catches up.
“You two little girls are too dishonest. I was right. I didn’t see through your ident.i.ties because you are thieves coming from the Tower of Babel!” The Master of Blue Waves covers Yang Lisha’s mouth with his hand. The female monster’s face turns red because of anger. She keeps kicking and hitting the Master of Blue Waves.
Lin Luoran is surprised that the Master of Blue Waves shouts out who they really are.
Both Liao living 2,000 years later and the Master of Blue Waves in front of her don’t seem to have powerful abilities to Lin Luoran. However, he knows the secrets of the tower. Wait, if he were really Liao, wouldn’t he have lived for more than 2,000 years? How could a man like him not have powerful abilities? Is he hiding his real power?
Seeing that the visitors have climbed up the Tower of Babel, the high priest is startled. The fake saintess and the ancestor of monsters of wood seize the opportunity and break free from his spell. Lin Luoran and Yang Lisha come towards the light of induction. The Master of Blue Waves laughs, “Give me the spirit herbs. Otherwise, you will be dead.”
The three people step into the light at different times. They should have been sent to different places on different floors of the tower. The Master of Blue Waves is able to catch Yang Lisha. Who knows if the fake saintess will catch up?
Lin Luoran randomly picks a few ginsengs from her s.p.a.ce and throws them to the Master of Blue Waves. These ginsengs are the descendants of ginseng seeds obtained from Mu’s Seed Company when Lin Luoran first practiced cultivation. Eight or nine years have pa.s.sed. One day in Lin Luoran’s s.p.a.ce is the same as one year outside, the ginsengs are almost three thousand years old.
The Master of Blue Waves is amazed. He can’t believe he has really extorted such good ginsengs from Lin Luoran. He loosens his grip, which allows Yang Lisha to escape. The female monster is furious after being humiliated. She steps hardly on the Master of Blue Waves’ feet and opens the stone gate with Lin Luoran.
