Chapter 759 The Glowing Wishing Tree
Next to the Central Royal Court is Rat Street, and Rat Street is right next to Widow Street.
So Angel did not continue flying, but walked leisurely into the crowd, walking towards Widow Street with the flow of people.
As soon as he turned a corner, he reached Widow's Street ahead, but before he stepped into it, he felt a strange feeling, as if someone was watching him.
With a sudden thought, he originally planned to enter Widow's Street, but he made a sudden U-turn and went to the crowded Xiaguang Square.
Just after he entered Xiaguang Square and made sure that the sense of prying eyes on him disappeared, he pretended to turn back casually and looked at the long and dark street. At this time, there were not many people on Widow Street, but Angel saw two apprentices hiding on a certain roof at a glance.
Because of the distance, he couldn't see clearly. The reason why he was sure they were apprentices was because they were constantly performing some kind of visual magic on the crowd. The ripples of energy were invisible to mortals, but he could clearly see them. perceived.
They seemed to be monitoring the flow of people in this area.
Angel frowned and thought to himself: "It seems that they are here too."
"That's right. Three thousand years ago, more than half of the properties in Widow's Street were occupied by the Lucas family. The historical records are very clear. It is not difficult for them to find this place." Angel glanced in the direction of Widow's Street from a distance. , there were two apprentices standing guard at the door, and there were countless extraordinary beings inside.
Even if he turns on the boundless silence and breaks in, the effect of boundless silence is not absolute invisibility, and it is possible that the car will overturn during the carpet-like search.
Therefore, Angel did not continue walking to Widow Street, but decided to change places.
According to the records in Muya's manuscript, Lucas had a small single-family courtyard in Pompeii Lane, which he bought for one of his lovers at the time. Because that lover was pregnant with Lucas's child, Lucas was worried that if she lived on Widow's Street, she would be jealous and plotted by his other lovers, so he bought a courtyard to accommodate her.
However, Mu Ya also recorded that although the child was finally born safely, he did not survive past the age of three. As for how he died, she didn't know.
Pompeii Lane is far away from Widow Street, at the east end of the city. Angel didn't know if there were any other extraordinary people nearby. For safety reasons, he did not take off immediately, but walked slowly, preparing to leave Xiaguang Square first.
But when Angel came to the center of the square, he suddenly paused.
Previously, all his attention was focused on the direction of Widow's Street, and he did not notice the appearance of the square at all. It was only then that he discovered a ten-meter-high tree in the center of the square.
There is a tree that seems to have nothing out of the ordinary, but in fact it is not a real tree, but a tree sculpture.
Sculpted in one go using fluorite.
From a distance, it still looks hazy, but up close, this tree is simply dreamy and not like a human being. The whole tree glows faintly, and the branches are covered with various wind chimes used for prayer. When the wind blows, the wind chimes jingle, crisp and sweet.
Angel noticed this tree for three reasons.
First of all, it is a rare thing to find such a tall fluorite; secondly, the one-piece carving is enough to be the work of a master; finally, what Angel cares most about is because the manuscript in Muya’s I once recorded such a passage
"The late month of recovery in the year 1347 of the Shining Gold Calendar"
"Prince Domingo came to visit, and the royal family held a large banquet in the palace. Lucas, a philandering scumbag, actually refused to change his ways and went to seduce Prince Domingo's cousin, and the woman was blind. Phew! Look at it. What was he talking about? There was a glowing wishing tree by Lake Under Armor, and he said he would take her to make a wish to restore the light to her eyes. That’s enough. Why should I meet him here?”
This was just a venting word from Mu Ya. Angel didn't pay attention to it at the time, but when he looked at the fluorite tree sculpture in front of him, he suddenly remembered this record.
He doesn't know what Xiaguang Square was like three thousand years ago. But he still remembered that on the map from three thousand years ago that he had just looked at in the Royal Court of Anjou, there happened to be a lake on the street next to Widow Street, named Lake Andema.
A tree made of fluorite? A glowing wishing tree?
Could the tree in front of me be the one Lucas was talking about?
Angel noticed that there was a shop selling wishing wind chimes near the square, and a group of girls gathered around him chattering.
Angel walked over and vaguely heard the conversation of the group of girls: "I heard that this glorious wishing tree is very effective... I hope it can bless me and make Colon fall in love with me."
"I just hope that Master Vocabulary can come to Lost Music City to hold a concert next month."
"I hope I can lose weight..."
They bought several copper wind chimes and wrote their wishes. The merchant immediately arranged for someone to hold a ladder to hang their wishing wind chimes on the fluorite tree sculpture.
"So this is how the wind chimes above came from." Angel thought to himself, no wonder there were so many notes hanging on the wind chimes.
Just now, he glanced at a few notes with his spiritual tentacles, most of which were wishes for blessings for his family. Of course, there were also words similar to the thoughts of these girls, but the most bizarre one was a golden wind chime hanging on the top: "I hope my A certain place became five centimeters longer.”
When Angel was stunned, the group of girls had left. The merchant raised his head and saw Angel standing in front of him.
"Dear guest, do you want to buy a wishing wind chime?" The merchant said with a smile, "The Glorious Wishing Tree is very effective. Today's princess prayed here to marry a good husband, and it finally came true."
The merchant pointed to the several golden wind chimes on the top of the tree sculpture: "The one at the top is the princess's wishing wind chime."
Angel looked over as the merchant said, and after a careful identification, the merchant did not lie. There was indeed a note on it that wished for marriage.
"How much is your wishing wind chime?" Angel asked casually.
"Copper wind chimes, 2 gold coins, can be hung on the tree for 1 month. Silver wind chimes, 20 gold coins, can be hung on the tree for a year. As for the golden wind chimes, it costs 200 gold coins. As long as this tree sculpture still belongs to our Chamber of Commerce, we will help you hang it on it forever." The merchant said it lightly, but the price in his words was amazing.
One gold coin is enough for ordinary people to have no worries about food and clothing for a year, but here two gold coins can hang a wind chime for a month.
It is estimated that only nobles and wealthy merchants with spare money are qualified to hang wind chimes.
Angel picked up a golden wind chime and played with it. The merchant's eyes lit up instantly, and he began to talk about the advantages of the golden wind chime, such as cleaning the dust every three days, and covering it with a tarp when it rains... and guaranteeing a high success rate for wishes.
Angel didn't believe these. He just sensed the tree sculpture and there was no energy fluctuation. Basically, it was a scam.
But he didn't come here to expose the merchant's tricks.
Angel: "Boss, you just said that this tree belongs to your chamber of commerce?"
"Yes, this tree itself was customized by the owner of our Firefly Chamber of Commerce and Master Huasha."
"This... Glory Wishing Tree does look beautiful and dreamy. I would like to ask, when was this tree carved?"
Angel swallowed his saliva. When he asked this question, he was inexplicably looking forward to it.
The merchant frowned. The guy in front of him didn't want to buy the wind chime, but kept asking questions, which made him feel a little unhappy. Moreover, his clothes were a little sloppy. Could he be playing a trick on him?
He was thinking about whether to ask the shop assistant to kick him out, when a large bag was suddenly thrown on the table.
He opened it with doubts and found that it was full of gold coins.
"I think this wishing tree is interesting. Give me a golden wind chime." Angel said casually.
In an instant, the merchant's expression changed, and he didn't even care where the gold coins came from. He respectfully took out a piece of sandpaper that was not easy to corrupt from the drawer, and then took out a feather pen and ink bottle and placed them in front of Angel.
"Dear guest, please write down your wishes. I will ask the assistant to pick a perfect location for you later, and I guarantee that it won't get wet in the rain!" The merchant rubbed his palms and showed a dog-legged attitude to Angel.
200 gold coins is not a small amount. The other party threw out such a bag of gold coins without any care, which shows how rich the financial resources are!
Angel took the feather pen, but did not write immediately. Instead, he looked at the merchant: "You haven't answered the question I asked just now. When was this tree carved?"
This time, the merchant did not hesitate and said directly: "It happened more than 600 years ago. Master Warsaw has also been dead for 600 years, so I definitely did not lie."
After listening, Angel nodded expressionlessly.
But in his heart, he felt "as expected".
This is it again!
It was obviously something Lucas said in person, but it did not appear in his era, but was delayed to hundreds or even thousands of years later. Although many contents did not match, the general core did not change.
Once or twice is a coincidence, but so many times, it must be inevitable.
There are indeed strange things about Lucas. People in the Golden Age could not find it, and only thought he was a liar. Only when later generations slowly investigate will they find that there are many strange things.
"Customer, why haven't you started writing yet?"
Angel came to his senses when he heard the merchant's urging voice: "Sorry, I was just thinking about what to write. I have too many wishes to realize, and I am arranging them in order in my mind."
The merchant nodded in understanding, and looked at Angel with a kind look. He paid for the golden wind chime without even sorting out his wishes. He was just a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
Angel, who was regarded as a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered, thought for a moment, and quickly wrote a line of words on the paper with a pen.
"May Mr. Jon recover from his illness, may my brother be healthy, and... the fire of the lion's heart will never go out."
