Chapter 188: Set off, go to the royal court

For humans, not having a tail is normal, but for the Moon Clan, it is clearly classified as a disability.

According to the memory in his mind, Lin Tuo learned that without a tail, the Moon Clan has poor body balance. Daily actions are fine, but it is basically impossible to become a "warrior" or a similar profession.

Just when Lin Tuo was groping curiously, suddenly, there were footsteps outside the door. Immediately, the wooden door was opened, and a boy who was half a teenager in the Yue Clan walked in carrying a woven bag.

Seeing Lin Tuo holding a mirror in one hand and touching his back with the other, looking at each other, and after a brief silence, he couldn't help but say:

"Teacher, why don't we buy another fake tail? You can't touch it. Do you really hope that the potion you prepared will work?"

Seeing Lin Tuo's mouth move, the boy suddenly shook his head and sighed, as if he knew what the teacher was going to say, and said to himself:

"Okay, okay, I know, the tail is expensive. We have no money. We still have to save the cost of going to the royal court and buying medicinal materials. We need to save...

But not having a tail is not a problem. It's fine at home, but going to the Royal Court is bound to make people laugh... I heard that people in the city that never sleeps in the Royal Court care about how they dress.

Especially for rich people, their clothes and accessories are so beautiful and exquisite. If you really want to go, you have to pack them up, otherwise what will you do if they don’t let you into the city gate..."

The boy was a little chatty, a little thin, his face was pale and dull, he looked malnourished, and his short hair was messy. As he spoke, he turned his head and put the bag in his hand on the table.

He took out two pieces of bread that looked very cheap, and behind him was a furry, two-forked tail hanging listlessly, which looked quite interesting.

Next to him, Lin Tuo remembered his identity the moment he entered the door...

The boy is called "Qingzong", and he is the only student of his poor doctor. The master and the apprentice are two poor people who depend on each other and rely on the production of some general medicines similar to "cold granules" as their main source of income.

"Shan Hai" wanted to try his luck at Wang Ting this time, but Qingkong was not very supportive.

On the one hand, it was because he knew how bad the medical skills of "Shan Hai" were... and on the other hand, he was reluctant to pay the travel expenses to the royal court. After all, in this small town, the master and apprentice still had a shabby house to protect themselves from the wind and rain.

But going to the Royal Court does not count the carriage and horse, just the accommodation is a big expense...

Information flowed through his mind, and Lin Tuo "remembered" some interesting knowledge. Although the reproduction of the Yue tribe depends on the "Yue tree", that is, the small tree he planted, somehow, there are

The distinction between men and women.

However, the gender characteristics are not in the direction of Nako, but that men have horns and women do not...

As for the figure, voice, personality, etc., they are highly similar to humans, and there is not much difference... Lin Tuo highly suspects that this may be the memory left by the tree when it was a potted plant. When the results came out, he told Li Shan

The men and women made a poor imitation. As for the horns and tail, I don’t know where they came from...

In addition, there seems to be shame among men and women in the Moon Clan, but the main function is not for reproduction, but for entertainment...and because the genitals are the same for men and women, the shame process is also different from humans.

As for the specific details... Lin Tuo couldn't find it in Shan Hai's memory. He was not sure whether it was lost or the seventy-year-old virgin had no idea about it at all...

Next to him, Qingkong was still chattering:

"Also, I know you don't like to hear it, but I have to say, if teacher you still can't figure out a way to save the princess, then we'd better give up.

I know that taking a chance can change your destiny. Once you succeed, we won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of our lives, but it has to be realistic. Excluding travel expenses, the rest of our savings will be spent buying herbs for you.

You said it yourself yesterday, you are going to try it one last time, and if it fails, we will hang ourselves with a hemp rope each, so as to save the meal..."

Having said this, Qingkong finally packed up his lunch, handed a loaf of low-quality bread and a cup of boiling water to Lin Tuo, and then looked suspiciously at his silent poor master.

His nose wrinkled and his face suddenly turned pale, as if he thought of something:

"What does this smell like? And, teacher, why don't you say anything? Could it be that the experiment..."

As he said this, the Yue Clan boy named Qingkong suddenly jumped sideways with great agility, stretched his neck and glanced behind Lin Tuo.

When he saw the messy experimental table and the dripping unknown liquid on the tabletop, the malnourished young man choked for breath, his vision went dark, and he almost fainted.

"Blue sky..."

Lin Tuoqing coughed, imitating the appearance of the "mountains and seas" in his memory, and opened his mouth to say some comforting words.

The next second, he saw Qingkong expressionlessly turning around and pulling out two hemp ropes from the corner, giving one to the somewhat confused Lin Tuo, then throwing the other one onto the beam, and skillfully tying the end.

He tied a knot, put it on his neck, and said seriously:

"Thank you very much for the teacher's upbringing in this life. I will never see you again in the next life. The student will take the first step!"





"Cough cough cough."

Two minutes later, in the dilapidated room, Lin Tuo looked at Qing Kong who was sitting on the ground, rubbing his neck and coughing, with a helpless expression on his face.

Being so upright... I don't know if it's Shan Qingkong like this, or the Yue clan members have such a temper... It's too impatient.

"There was indeed a slight error in the experiment, but it's not a big problem. Why seek death?"

Lin Tuo felt that he needed to understand the other party:

"You can make money again after you have lost it. It is a pity to die like this without enjoying wealth for dozens of...well, hundreds of years in this life."

On the ground, Qingkong, who was rubbing his neck and looking frustrated, was about to cry without tears:

"I don't want to be rich anymore. I don't have that life."

"Okay, although you made a mistake, it's not a failure. The dejected expression on your face makes people think that your teacher and I are dead."

Lin Tuodao, thinking that as a student, Huaxi is much better than you... at least he won't be so reckless.

The young man named Qingkong was stunned for a moment, raised his head and said blankly:

"What do you mean? Didn't fail? Then you..."

"It's hard to tell the specific situation, but in short, we have some ideas."

Lin Tuo dealt with it vaguely, then endured the awkwardness in the other's doubtful eyes, ate the cheap loaf of bread, left Qingkong to clean the experimental table, and said he had something to do, and walked out the door.



This dilapidated house in "Shanhai" has indeed seen its age, and even in this small town, it looks particularly dilapidated.

The entire town is medium in size. When you walk on the streets in the center of the city, there are many shops on both sides. People from the Yue tribe pass through from time to time. Most of the houses are made of wood. A low city wall made of stones separates the city from the suburbs.

Walking to the center of the town, you can see a well. Further ahead, there is a small square and a fountain. There are some musicians playing strange instruments, and they don't look like entertainers.

Lin Tuo watched the formation calmly and continued walking forward. Along the way, he saw places such as taverns and blacksmith shops, where people from the Yue tribe were staying.

When he reached a watch shop, he curiously went in and took a look. He was surprised to find many clocks with extremely exquisite mechanical structures. Some of them were made of ordinary metal, and some were made of fallen branches from the "Moon Tree".

Made of material.

In the memory of "Mountain and Sea", the material of Yueshu was more widely used in the royal court. The further away from the city, the less. The price was not expensive, but it was much higher than ordinary metal.

When he walked to the bulletin board in the center of the town, he finally saw the reward that led to the death of "Shan Hai". It was issued by the royal court. The content was mostly similar to what he remembered.

The Lord of the Royal Court, the patriarch of the entire Yue Clan, or the daughter of the king here, could not move one leg due to an accident. Doctors from the Royal Court took turns to diagnose and treat it, but none of them worked. Therefore, the treatment method for the signs in the whole continent was not effective.

Go to the Royal Court for diagnosis and treatment.

"Sounds like an opportunity."

Along the way, he also gained a basic impression of the world, and soon realized that he might be able to use this opportunity to promote alchemy.

Although he had thought of pretending to be a god before, the people of the Yue tribe believed in the "Moon Tree", so it was not easy for Lin Tuo to disguise himself.

In the memory of "Mountain and Sea", the moon tree growing in the center of the royal court possesses great power and infinite wisdom... Although Lin Tuo expressed doubts about the latter, it is true that it has intelligence.

Under such circumstances, it is not convenient to pretend to be an envoy to spread knowledge...

It's easy to expose.

In addition, he also wanted to take the opportunity to test the limits of this power. On the way, he found an opportunity to return his consciousness to his original body, and found that it was almost the same as switching clones.

During the second advent, the consumption of ether was also reduced a lot. The problem is that both bodies need to eat, which is not as convenient as a clone.

Moreover, as he experimented, Lin Tuo also had an idea in his mind:

"What will happen if I activate time acceleration as Shan Hai?"

When the clone is accelerating, it will enter the "virtual state". This has been determined, but Lin Tuo is not sure what will happen after the clone is taken away.

If acceleration is turned on and he lives here as a "mountain and sea" for hundreds of years, will only one day pass for the earth?

"I have to find an opportunity to study it, but there is no rush for the time being." Lin Tuo felt that it was important to clarify this point. "Unfortunately, the body is not his own. Even if he could, he would not be able to increase his body's strength by practicing here."

Thinking of practicing, Lin Tuo stood there and closed his eyes, trying to meditate and use the "breath-eating method".

After a while.

"Cough cough cough cough..." Lin Tuo coughed for a while, his face turned red and burning, and he was speechless for a while, "Can't practice?"

He hadn't felt it before, but when he consciously adjusted his breathing, he realized that there seemed to be some differences between the organs of the Moon Clan and humans. It wasn't that it was impossible to practice, it was just that it was extra laborious.

The breathing rhythm that humans can easily adjust is extremely difficult for the Moon Clan to adjust.

"No wonder, the monsters in the third world need to take shape in order to practice." Lin Tuo thought with some suddenness, stopped trying, and immediately turned around and returned to the wooden house.

When he opened the door, he saw Xiao Qingkong sitting in the clean room, wiping a broken beaker distressedly. When he saw Lin Tuo, he was about to speak when the teacher waved his sleeve and said:

"Pack your things and get ready to go out."

Qingkong was stunned: "Where to go?"
