Chapter 314 It Must Be an Illusion
Lu Sen didn't know what happened in Hangzhou. He was standing in front of Jing Huan and asked, "Does your ancestor have a way to bring the Fusang tree back?"
Jinghuan shook his head: "The Fusang tree has merged with this place and cannot be taken back."
"We must not leave the Fusang tree here." Bao Zheng stood beside it and looked up at the huge tree canopy: "The great fortune of heaven and earth should be enjoyed by the Chinese people like us. If the barbarians get it, they are unworthy of their position."
Whale Huan laughed: "But I really have no way. This hibiscus tree has absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy for more than three hundred years. Its extreme system has been connected to the entire island and even the entire earth vein. No matter how powerful I am, I can't move it."
Lu Sen also looked up at the hibiscus tree. This hibiscus tree was already a mature tree. The whole tree was shining with golden light, as if it was made of gold, giving people a sacred feeling.
After a while, Lu Sen sighed and said, "Since we can't move back, let's just forget it."
Everyone looked over.
Bao Zheng thought for a moment and asked, "What a waste of natural resources."
Lu Sen replied helplessly: "There is no other way. If we stay here, in the next two or three hundred years, when it gathers enough luck, it will only be our descendants who will suffer."
"I am just saying this casually, I don't have any other intention." Bao Zheng bowed gently and said, "As for matters concerning the immortals, the luck and fortune of our Song Dynasty are poor, so I entrust them to Master Lu. You have the final say."
Jing Huan's lips moved. In her heart, she actually didn't want to cut down the hibiscus tree. After all, she had lived here for so long and the hibiscus tree was transplanted by her, so she had feelings for it.
But when I think about it, if this hibiscus tree really continues to grow , it will definitely gather great fortune here, and then it will inevitably have an impact on the land of Xia. It is impossible for the younger generations in front of us to let this happen.
She felt sad inside and walked aside, not wanting to listen or watch anymore.
Lu Sen took out a large number of iron pickaxes and axes from his system backpack and said, "Let's work together to cut down this Fusang tree."
Everyone came over to get the tools, and when they were about to start, a few people appeared near them.
The leader was naturally Theodora, the Queen of the Eastern Roman Empire.
She walked slowly while looking at the colorful gems around her, and finally raised her head to look at the huge golden canopy in the sky.
Lu Sen motioned for everyone to go cut wood, and he turned back to Theodora and asked with a smile, "I didn't expect that Her Majesty the Queen would come here in person."
"If I hadn't come up, how would I have known that this small island would have so much wealth? There are so many gems everywhere, and I can never get them all." Theodora looked up at the golden treetop, fascinated, "This should be the legendary world tree. I heard that when the world tree bears fruit, beautiful elves will be born."
Lu Sen was stunned for a moment, then explained: "This is our eastern hibiscus tree, the national tree, which was stolen and planted here."
Eljie, who was standing nearby, immediately translated the words.
After listening to this, Theodora covered and laughed, "Gold is called different things in different countries, but that doesn't affect the fact that they are the same thing."
Lu Sen raised his eyebrows slightly. He heard something else, so he put his hands in his sleeves and asked with a smile, "Your Majesty, what do you think?"
"Your Excellency the Archbishop of the East, can you tell me what this World Tree means to you?" Theodora walked up to Lu Sen and got very close to him: "Can it make people return to youth or gain powerful strength?"
There was an inexplicable fishy smell on Theodora's body. Although it was faint, Lu Sen still smelled it. He subconsciously took a half step back and smiled, "What if Her Majesty the Queen knows? You can't do it and you can't get it."
"You are so heartless." When Theodora saw Lu Sen taking a half step back, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes: "We are allies."
Lu Sen pointed at the Eastern Roman Empire legions that were still digging for gems and moving them onto the ship: "Until now, there is no sign of them stopping. Do you think this is what an ally should do?"
Theodora smiled as if it was a matter of course, "This is our previous contract. We can take any non-magical items."
Lu Sen was waiting for this sentence, and smiled even more brightly: "So any items related to magic have nothing to do with Her Majesty the Queen. This is what we agreed on before."
"But I suddenly want it, what should I do?" Theodora said as she walked forward: "In the legends of the north, the World Tree is the foundation of the world. Of course, I can't let you take it away casually."
This was the last glimmer of the Roman Empire, and the Nordic world had gradually begun to develop. The mythological stories there also spread to Southern Europe.
"What if we insist on taking him away?" Lu Sen asked curiously, "Can you stop us?"
Theodora approached Lu Sen again: "Of course not, you are so powerful and handsome, how can I stop you."
"Then what Her Majesty means is..."
"I will go with you. I can be your lover. As long as you can give me youth and strength, I am willing to give you everything. I don't want power, status, or wealth." Theodora pointed to Ajeli next to her: "Just like this female mercenary."
Aijie sneered and translated the words. She felt nothing inside. After all, she was already a noble Song person and was no longer the same kind as these barbarians.
She doesn't care, but someone else does.
When Lu Sen heard this, he wanted to laugh. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a swish and a white shadow appeared beside him. Then he saw Theodora scream, fly backwards, and roll five or six meters on the grass.
The white shadow was Lu Xianxian. She put down her right hand, her fox eyes full of murderous intent: "You are just a cheap slave from Xirong, how dare you set your sights on your master? You don't even realize how dirty your body is, humph."
These words were filled with murderous intent.
Because of excessive anger, the slender fox tail was exposed and the air around it became sticky.
She had disliked this old woman for a long time, and now she finally had an opportunity.
Aijie, who was standing by, was so scared that her face turned pale and her body was shaking.
Lu Xianxian turned her eyes and looked at Aijie, scaring the latter so much that her face turned from pale to blue.
Just when Ai Jie Li thought she might die, Xian Xian smiled sweetly: "I didn't say you, you are from our Song Dynasty."
Aijie felt relieved and relaxed. She sat down on the ground and couldn't stand up.
Theodora climbed up and sat up, a little dazed. She felt her whole face was numb. She wiped it subconsciously with her hand, and a palm of blood and a white tooth came out.
ah!!!
The sharp sound alarmed the Eastern Roman Empire soldiers who were frantically moving gems. They quickly gathered around, surrounded their queen in the center, and stared at Lu Sen and others.
At this time, Jingjing and Wowo also came over, and together with Xianxian, there were three of them in total... three foxes, revealing their true forms at the same time. The huge beasts stared at a group of soldiers from the Eastern Roman Empire, creating a powerful oppressive force.
However, these Eastern Roman Empire soldiers were not too afraid. After all, they dared to face so many monsters just now.
Theodora was helped up. She stared at Xianxian, her eyes full of anger and resentment, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Lu Sen smiled, and when he turned around, he said to Xianxian: "If they dare to make a move later, kill them all."
Almost everyone present could hear these words. Ajieli did not translate them. She hid behind three foxes.
At this time , Jinghuan also came over and stood next to Wowo, and seemed to be planning to take action as well.
Zhan Zhao and his wife, Kun Kun and Yao Yao, Shi Lei and others had already arrived under the Fusang tree with tools in hand, and were gesturing where to start.
Bao Zheng walked to Lu Sen's side, and like Lu Sen, he put his hands into his wide sleeves and said, "After we return this time, what are Master Lu's plans?"
"After returning, I will rest for a while, and then find an opportunity to go to Northern Liao and ask King Xiao if I can move to the Central Plains."
When Bao Zheng heard this, he laughed.
King Xiao, this means that there is no emperor in Northern Liao, only kings and princes.
He could not help but bow to Lu Sen and said, "If King Xiao really comes to the Central Plains, even if I have to carry my coffin to make a direct appeal, I will ask the government to make him a king of a different surname."
Lu Sen held Bao Zheng's hand, not letting him bow down, and said, "It won't be too late to bow to me after this is done."
The two looked at each other for a moment and laughed at the same time.
After Lu Sen finished laughing, he saw out of the corner of his eye that Theodora left angrily with her army. He felt quite sorry. This woman was really patient. She didn't act impulsively and left him a way to survive.
Just when I was feeling sorry, I heard Yaoyao screaming from the front: "Ah, how come someone suddenly appeared?"
These words attracted everyone's attention.
Then Lu Sen saw that under the hibiscus tree, there appeared a little girl wearing a simple long dress.
The girl had blonde hair and blue eyes, and her hair reached her waist. She was standing there trembling all over, her pupils dilated, as if she was so scared that they had lost their luster.
Lu Sen took a look and couldn't help but exclaimed, he found that the girl's ears were long and pointed!
This image... is it an elf?
Then Lu Sen discovered that there was a shallow scar on the little girl's ankle, and a little pink blood was flowing out.
Several people gathered around, and Lu Sen asked, "What's going on?"
Yaoyao waved the iron axe in her hand and said, "Master, I just chopped down the Fusang tree, but I didn't expect this girl to appear in front of me. The second axe almost hit her head."
Lu Sen looked at the tall hibiscus tree and seemed to have an epiphany.
Whale rushed in from the periphery, looked up and down at the little girl who suddenly appeared, and then hugged her excitedly: "It's a rare thing, she actually changed her form. It turns out that the Fusang tree can really give birth to spiritual knowledge. Once this little thing comes out, we can bring the Fusang tree back to Xiatu."
Seeing the overjoyed Whale, Bao Zheng leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Master Lu, I forgot to ask, after returning to the Song Dynasty, how will you arrange for this ancestor?"
"Just put her in my system door for now, and I won't let her run around."
"Very good, very good." Bao Zheng nodded repeatedly: "I'll trouble Master Lu to work a little harder."
"What's the hardship?"
Lu Sen suddenly turned his head to look at Bao Zheng. He always felt that Bao Zheng seemed to have something else to say, but then he thought, this is Bao Heitan, how could he say such dirty words!
It must be an illusion.
