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.
“Don’t tell the secrets of the Tower of Babel to the fake saintess! Please!” Lin Luoran’s voice disappears into the fog. The Master of Blue Waves suddenly remembers what he just did. He hides the ginsengs somewhere else and looks sadly at a book made of leaves, “If I had known she was that generous, I shouldn’t have stolen this book!”
The book is the ancient book of the monsters of wood that Yang Lisha carried.
The sissy ancestor catches up and sees the junior vine monster disappear into the fog inside the stone gate. The Master of Blue Waves feels guilty for stealing the book and grabs the ancestor when he is about to chase Lin Luoran and Yang Lisha into the gate.
All of them except Liao are under the high priest’s control in the tower. So the ancestor of monsters of wood is a little scared of the middle-aged man who doesn’t fear the high priest.
“Give our ancient book back!”
The Master of Blue Waves doesn’t have time to socialize with the ancestor. He says coldly, “Are you talking about this? I didn’t take it from you. I need to give it back to that little monster.” The Master of Blue Waves has never been greedy. He tosses the ancient book into the mist. The ancestor of the monsters of wood is irritated and rushes over. However, the stone gate closes before he can take the ancient book back and cuts off his last spiritual link.
“Who the h.e.l.l are you?”
The Master of Blue Waves is annoyed by the question. The monster in front of him is so strange. He feels anxious exactly because he can’t remember who he is. The ancestor of the monsters of wood brings up the things the Master of Blue Waves are worrying about. The master feels furious, but he can’t defeat the ancestor. He can only glare at the ancestor and imagine killing him in this way.
The fake saintess hesitates for a while and opens a stone gate.
She and the ancestor get into the light at the same time, so they are regarded as a team by the tower. The fake saintess is pulled by a strange force and disappears into the gate.
The Master of Blue Waves breaks into a cold sweat and feels at the bottom of his heart that these people are so unlovable. At least, they are not as honest as that female cultivator. If he met her again, he would definitely give her a big gift. Haha, three-thousand-year-old ginsengs are very rare nowadays. He is so lucky to get them.
The Master of Blue Waves can go freely in the tower. He b.u.mps into the high priest left behind.
The high priest doesn’t look kind, which makes the Master of Blue Waves somewhat nervous. It seems that he suddenly enters the tower and disturbs the situation well-controlled by the high priest.
“Ah, the thing is……Dear high priest, if you can forgive my recklessness, we can talk about the Tower of Babel. I won’t waste your time. Don’t worry about the two people who have gone into the tower anymore. They will either be dead or transmitted to other planets. No matter how much you hate them, you don’t have to mind them when they are so far away, right?”
The Master of Blue Waves has a silver tongue. He drags the high priest down the Tower of Babel and shamelessly asks the high priest to send him to the dome. After he mysteriously changes some star tracks, the floating Tower of Babel disappears in the sky.
This man seems to know the Tower of Babel very well.
However, it is so strange that he doesn’t seem to have powerful abilities. The poor high priest has been shocked several times today. He is already numb to everything.
Inside the stone gate, Lin Luoran and Yang Lisha are walking through the mist. Their way back is more difficult than the one when they came. They won’t instantly go back to the 21st century just by going into the gate.
The two are trying to find their way in the mist. Even if they only find another stone gate, they will be very glad because they will know they are in the right direction.
Lin Luoran and Yang Lisha are about to open a gate when something flies quickly over their heads and disappears into the mist.
“That’s the ancient book of the monsters of wood!” The book is in the shape of leaves and can’t be mistaken!
Yang Lisha searches through herself and doesn’t find the book. Lin Luoran wants to chase it, but the female monster pulls her back.
“It’s useless. The book came into the gate only a few seconds after we did. It is in a completely different gate of time.”
Lin Luoran is stunned. Yang Lisha also suddenly pauses. Are they guilty of losing the ancient book of the monsters of wood? OMG, the history of the ancient book is created by the two of them. Zhuangzi, a Taoist philosopher in the Warring States of Huaxia once doubted whether he was the b.u.t.terfly that he dreamed of. Lin Luoran and Yang Lisha are now in a similar situation. They can’t figure out what is real and what is their illusion. Traveling to 2,600 years ago is not merely for a day trip, right?
