Chapter 175 A Miracle Hidden from Sight (3k)
The woman had passed the girls and was looking at Morn interacting with the sacred tree in disbelief.
After a brief hesitation, she asked in a daze:
"You, no, who are you?"
Moon lowered his head and said:
"If you haven't guessed it yet, then let me postpone the moment when the mystery is revealed."
"After all, waiting for surprises is always fun."
The girls became more and more excited.
Light began to appear in their eyes.
Who is Moon? They, the women, already have a little fantasy.
But no one dared to say it out loud, as if by saying so, this overly vague dream would disappear.
For them, the world is too cruel.
So much so that when hope really came, they almost lost the courage to try to embrace redemption.
After all, before today, they were a group of homeless people who were abandoned by even their parents.
In the soft glow of the sacred tree, the girl who first met Morn timidly raised her hand and asked:
"But what can we use to make you a laurel wreath? There is nothing here. We are almost out of food to fill our stomachs."
The second half of this sentence is really heartbreaking.
Stuck in the King's Law, the Holy Tree between the Steel Heart Church can only give them a little protection, but can no longer give them more blessings.
Therefore, even with the protection of the sacred tree, they still live a hard life.
Moen smiled apologetically, pointed at the golden branches above his head and said:
“You can use this.”
The girls immediately stepped back in panic.
Breaking branches and leaves from the sacred tree was something they had never thought of.
this is too scary.
This is the only sacred tree that is willing to tolerate and accept them!
In response to their resistance and panic, Moon waved his hands and smiled:
"Don't worry, this is what she wants too."
The golden sacred tree above Moon's head also made a slightly swaying sound at this moment.
This made Moen laugh:
"Look, she's saying yes too."
Throughout the ages, it has been extremely rare to be able to obtain the leaves of the sacred tree.
The only one who can take down the branches and leaves of the sacred tree and use them is the Eternal King.
Before them, the Twelve Golden Flower Lords were responsible for making the laurel wreath for the Eternal King.
And when Roselórien was named, that was her duty alone.
But now, Moon decided to give this honor to them temporarily.
It was his own fault that led to the exile of his people.
Since I'm going to take them home, leaving them to them temporarily is the most appropriate option.
After seeing this, they carefully gathered around again, but even so, they still asked in a low voice:
"Really? Sir, maybe, maybe we can't make the laurel wreath you want?"
Moon smiled gently and said:
"As long as it is woven by you, that is enough."
Girls, this is what it means to be brave and take action.
Moon also made way and watched them carefully pick branches and leaves from the sacred tree.
Next to Moon, a woman stood behind him a little awkwardly.
"You are going to save us, right?"
Moen said strangely:
"Of course, I think I should have made this very clear, right?"
The woman lowered her head further:
"This is so unexpected and so wonderful that I still wonder if I am dreaming."
Her left arm was almost swollen from being pinched.
At the same time, she lowered her head and finally let Moon see her missing ear.
Not all of them were cut off, but just the long, pointed ears that were the symbol of the elves were cut off.
This made Moen sigh slightly:
"How did you find this place?"
"After I escaped, I met another girl in the same situation as me. She told me that there was a place for us deep under Meereen."
Moen was a little surprised.
"And how did she know that?"
"She said she saw it in a book written in Elvish."
"And I did find the tree in Meereen, as she said, and these huts were here when I came."
The woman, lost in her memories, finally raised her head and looked towards the hut next to the sacred tree.
It was something that had existed before she came, apparently, a relic of other girls from long ago.
This also shows that the blessing of the sacred tree had already begun.
"What about her?"
The woman who mentioned her was apparently rejuvenated.
She said to Moen with great joy:
"She is braver and more useful than I am."
"Because after she told me about this, she said she would go find other girls and tell them about it. There are eleven of us here now, and including me, there are twelve of us."
"Except for me, there are six others who came here because of her guidance."
"Although there are twelve of us, we always feel that she is among us, so there are actually thirteen of us!"
"Look, there is a bed and quilt left for her in the room over there. However, she has been outside all the time, guiding the rest of her companions to escape here."
"Besides, there are only twelve of us left now. In the past one hundred years, we had as many as twenty-one people at most!"
"Half of them were sent by her, and some were even rescued by her own wisdom and courage. The rest were rescued by us from the hands of those demons."
"Hope, maps, travel expenses, and food on the road were all prepared by her for us." As the woman spoke, she noticed that Moon's expression seemed a little subtle.
It was a look that she didn't know how to describe.
A mixture of surprise, delight, tenderness and many more emotions she couldn't put into words.
"what happened?"
"No, it's just that, according to what you said, you should have been here for more than a hundred years, right?"
"Yes, I have been here for more than 130 years, but I am useless and can never improve everyone's life. The blockade by those demons is too severe."
"I can't rob those poor ordinary people either."
Her ears drooped as she spoke of the current situation here, just like Ms. Lily.
However, she probably wouldn't be able to fall from the tree by herself like Ms. Lily.
She actually accumulated a lot of wealth, some of which she earned herself, and some of which were secretly funded by kind people, just like the Marquis.
But these riches are generally used for above-ground expenses, such as maintaining intelligence and managing personnel.
After all, she is also a transcendent of a high sequence.
Moon knew the general idea at just one glance.
These are all easy to guess.
It doesn't require much wisdom.
And this is not what Morn wanted to say:
"That's not what I meant. I just wanted to say that you've been here for more than a hundred years, so she should have known it earlier than you, right?"
"Yes, that's for sure."
Moon said with more understanding:
"And she is always able to appear beside you who are scattered all over the world, tell you a hope, and deliver this hope to you?"
"Yes, it's simply a miracle. I don't know how she did it all. If it weren't for her, we wouldn't know what to do."
In response to the woman's excitement, Mo En just smiled softly and said:
“Maybe it shouldn’t be called a miracle.”
"What do you mean?"
Moen wanted to tell her the answer, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and said:
"Perhaps it is best for you to realize the truth yourself."
"Let's talk about something else."
"Like what?"
"For example, their auction is in five days, right?"
The woman nodded and said:
"Yes, five days later, what are you going to do?"
Moon did not answer immediately, but continued to ask:
"Then, in five days, almost all the nobles who are interested in this kind of deal will come from all over the world, right?"
"Of course. I heard that this is the largest auction in more than a decade, so I am anxious to find that room and rescue them."
"Then let's set off in five days, since they will all be here soon."
"So what do we do now?"
There is no doubt that when the sacred tree performed miracles, Moon automatically became the backbone of this place.
Questions about women.
Morn put down his backpack.
After a brief hesitation, he took out the special rune, which contained the landa vegetable that Moon had always been reluctant to eat.
"You said you were running out of food, but I still have plenty!"
Just as the bottle of Luo Luo wine should be taken out at the Seven Hills, this Landa vegetable should obviously be eaten at this time.
Moon crushed the rune without hesitation.
-
Above the valley, at the foot of the sacred tree.
In the old capital of the former king.
Roselorian, who was still in the vegetable garden, was not taking care of her precious vegetable garden for the first time.
She just gazed quietly into the distance, which was the direction of Meereen.
Above her head, the holy tree was emitting a golden glow that was far greater than ever before.
Not long after, the high elves who looked up at the sacred tree from time to time pushed their carts out of the vegetable garden again:
"Lord Shadow, let's get today's Landa dishes."
The voices of the High Elves did not make Roselórien turn around.
She still looked towards Meereen, but she also gave her own response:
"no need."
"What, my lord?"
"There is no need to sell Landa vegetables to the public anymore."
The high elves were surprised and said:
"You finally think those damned humans are not worthy of enjoying such a sacred dish?!"
Roselorian turned around and said with a smile:
"No, just don't send it there anymore."
This sentence still left them as confused as before.
But looking at their black armor that has not changed for tens of millions of years.
Roselorian added seriously:
"And one more thing."
"What, my lord?"
"Change it back to the way it was at the beginning. He will definitely like it."
