Chapter 541 The Missing Princess

The basement was dark and cramped, but outside, the sun was shining brightly.

The butcher's house was indeed close to the woods, so Tang Sen could smell the unique natural fragrance of grass and trees. A patch of flowers stretched along the grass into the shade of the swaying trees. Countless colorful butterflies were flying among the flowers, dancing across the light spots. time, shining brightly.

The village not far away is just a dozen or so wooden houses, and the roofs are almost all covered with vines and moss, making the houses look cute and lively.

There are old women sitting under the eaves sewing clothes, children playing in the fields, and the wind blowing the leaves, creating a pleasant resonance.

A picture like a fairy tale.

This sudden change in painting style really surprised Tang Sen.

"It looks like an ordinary world, and no extraordinary power has been found yet."

Tang Sen opened up the space of the surgical fruit and enveloped the entire village.

Everyone's behavior was very normal. The butcher in the basement still had his head cut off and was completely dead.

"In this kind of world, it may not be easy to obtain goods with sufficient purchase conditions." Tang Sen frowned.

He hopes that he will go to a world where extraordinary abilities are more common, preferably like the Caribbean world, where gods can exist, so that he can lay the foundation for becoming a god before returning to Faerûn.

"However, I have explored too little information now, and maybe everything is not that simple."

Tang Sen looked into the distance and saw the castle the butcher mentioned.

It is said to be a castle, but it is actually more like a city, standing on the top of a low hill. It can be clearly seen that the towers and walls are made of very solid materials - this country, at least in this era, is quite wealthy.

"Go to the city and take a look first."

Tang Sen's consciousness entered the mental space, shared his vision with Smaug and Daisy, and glanced at the frozen Corybusso.

He doesn't have time to deal with each other for the time being. He will wait until he understands the situation in this world.

There is still no movement at the Gate of the Abyss. This thing may only be effective after returning to Faerun. As for other sundries, Tang Sen has no use for the time being.

After being prepared, his figure flashed a few times and he had left the village and arrived at the foot of the castle.

The old woman who was sewing clothes lowered her head, and a dripping eyeball fell on the clothes. She seemed to be unconscious, and the needle and thread pierced the eyeball, so the eyeball let out a piercing scream.

This sound attracted the children, who happily danced and sang around the old woman. The old woman raised her head, with a kind smile on her face that was missing an eyeball. After groping for a while, she put the other one on her face. An eyeball was popped out and handed to a young child.

The child eagerly stuffed the eyeball into his mouth and chewed it vigorously. As the juice overflowed, the fleshy sprouts suddenly began to squirm on the side of his face.

Then, an old eye squeezed out from the flesh bud, turned, and looked around with a strange look.

The castle is quite lively.

I thought this was more like a city before, but now it seems that it is indeed the case. Although there are not many streets, there are not many people living in the castle. Moreover, everyone's clothes are much more decent than those outside the castle. .

Tang Sen could even see aristocratic women in palace dresses strolling on the street with escorts.

"Freshly baked fluffy bread only costs ten coppers!"

"Come and see the freshly caught venison at a great price!"

"Excellent fabric! Brought here from far away. Miss, please touch it, it's very slippery!"

"."

All kinds of hawking sounds echoed in Tang Sen's ears.

Tang Sen ignored the hawking without much useful information, walked along the street, and finally heard some noteworthy sounds.

In the street restaurant next to it, there were two people who looked like servants of the nobles, chatting while eating.

"I heard that the king has been in a bad mood recently. The originally scheduled tailoring competition will not be held?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. The king loves the princess the most. After she disappeared, how could the king have the mind to meddle in such nosy matters."

"I don't know who is so capable that he can kidnap the princess."

"Shh, keep your voice down. The nature of the matter is disappearance, not kidnapping. If others hear you, you will be punished."

"Who can hear it except you? Let me tell you. This is really a good thing. I heard that many of the servants in the castle who were tortured to death by the princess were the same ones last time? Just because the ground was not cleaned up, when the princess passed by If you step on a stone, you will be punished by running on a road covered with broken glass. Hiss, it hurts just thinking about it."

"This is not terrible. The last maid who was responsible for dressing up the princess was so miserable. She was kicked out of the castle just because she hurt the princess while combing her hair. I heard that she was sold to a butcher, and then she Back to the castle in another way."

"I wonder if the princess has had a taste?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Who is she? Does she want anything? Even if she wants the stars in the sky, the king will find a way to help her pick them down!"

"I always feel that this was not done by outsiders. I heard a rumor that seems to be related to the Queen——"

"Shut up, do you want to die?"

"I just said casually, forget it, let's eat quickly, we have to work later."

Tang Sen listened thoughtfully to these conversations.

"The butcher seemed to have mentioned the missing princess before."

"Could this be an opportunity to trigger a procurement mission?"

He looked at the end of the street, at the gate leading to the inner castle. Standing were two rows of soldiers in full body armor, holding spears. The eyes behind their helmets kept scanning everyone approaching the gate.

"Perhaps we can go and meet this so-called king." Tang Sen thought so, and was about to move in. Suddenly, he heard one of the two people talking just now sighing:

"It's a pity. Although the princess has a bad temper, when I think about never seeing her again, even just from a distance, I feel that life is meaningless."

"There won't be a woman more beautiful than the princess in this world, right?"

"Of course, after all, only the princess deserves the name Bai Xue."

Tang Sen was stunned for a moment.

"Princess?"

"The castle, the king, the queen. Missing?"

He had a strange expression.

"Is it a coincidence? Or is this really the world I imagined?"

"That popular story with the Evil Queen, the Talking Mirror and the Seven Dwarfs. The story always ends in a fairy tale world where the princess and the prince live happily together?"
