Chapter 248 Yuanyuan, I want
The man in red tilted his head slightly.
After a two-second pause, a clear voice reached Luo Yuanyuan's ears:
"Burning without embers."
Afterwards, the man opened his beautiful lips again, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. After looking at the girl in front of him for a few times, he walked around her and the group of people and walked away.
Xue Ji came over, took her hand, and asked softly, "Yuan Yuan, what's wrong?"
Luo Yuanyuan shook her head silently.
I don't know why, but I feel empty, as if I have lost something.
The man's aura was exactly the same as A Li's, but he was half a head taller than A Li, and had long hair, a red shirt, and a different name.
Luo Yuanyuan was a little distraught and was about to leave when she heard Xue Ji say again: "That person seems to have been poisoned and his consciousness is controlled."
what?
Are there poisons in the animal world?
And such a handsome man was actually controlled by someone...
Pity.
Luo Yuanyuan couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the back of the man in red. At this time, the shop owner took two steps towards her and said with a smile:
"Little female, what do you think of the Beast King of our South Beast City? Isn't he outstanding?
He is a royal orc, and many females like him. Little female, I see that although you are wearing a veil, you should look very good, do you want to try it too?"
Xue Ji, who was standing next to him, had a slightly displeased look on his cold and ethereal face.
However, the shop owner didn't care at all and continued to matchmake enthusiastically: "Little female, are you new here? I have been selling fruit on this main street for many years and have never seen you before.
Let me tell you, tonight is our Nanshou City’s annual Dream Festival.
The male gives the dream fruit, which symbolizes love, to the female he likes. If the female is also interested in the male, she will accept it. Of course, the female can also give the male the dream fruit.
Like our Beast King, every year many females are sent to him, but he never accepts them, and even we are worried about him."
Dream Festival?
It sounds quite romantic.
It's a bit like the Qixi Festival~
Luo Yuanyuan became interested and asked with a smile: "Where can we find the Qimeng Fruit?"
The shop owner's eyes lit up instantly: "Little female, you've come to the right place. I have it right here, but the yield of this dream fruit is small, so it's a little expensive..."
? ? !
Isn't this an opportunity to raise the price?
The shop owner is so enthusiastic, could it be that he wants to sell this expensive fruit?
Luo Yuanyuan raised her little face nervously: "How much?"
The shopkeeper held up a finger and said with a smile, "One crystal stone and one dream fruit."
So expensive! ! !
Normally, one crystal can buy more than ten kilograms of fruit.
Luo Yuanyuan didn't want to be taken advantage of, so she turned around and left. Xue Ji gently tugged at her hand, leaned over slightly, stared at her, and smiled faintly: "Yuanyuan, I want..."
Luo Yuanyuan blinked her big eyes.
Did the high priest want her to buy it for him?
Alright alright.
Who made her like this ice crystal beauty? What else can she do without pampering her? !
Luo Yuanyuan curled the corners of her lips towards the elf, quietly scratched his palm, and smiled sweetly: "Okay."
The high priest was extremely happy, his snow-blue eyes sparkled, and he couldn't help but lean over and kiss her forehead. His cold voice became extremely tender: "Yuanyuan, I'm lucky to have you in this life~"
Luo Yuanyuan blushed for a moment, giggled twice, took out a purple crystal, and was about to hand it to the shopkeeper, but suddenly she thought of the man in red, and took out another purple crystal for some unknown reason, and said to the shopkeeper:
"I want two."
"Okay, okay," the shop owner was delighted.
He turned around and went to the store to pick up two red heart-shaped fruits, wrapped them in a large leaf and handed them to her, "Here, little female, take them. The rest of these fruits are all for you. I'll take a rest today and will go to the Qimeng Festival to join in the fun later."
Luo Yuanyuan harvested the fruits and found a stone house to rent out.
The high priest controlled the wind and snow to clean up the house, took out a double wooden bed from the space, and took a short nap while holding Luo Yuanyuan.
It was getting dark outside, so the two got up, packed up, and followed the owner's instructions to the place where the Dream Festival was held.
This is a piece of grass in the city. It covers a very large area, as big as two or three football fields.
The middle is reserved for dancing, and on the side there is a very conspicuous two-meter-high platform surrounded by flowers.
There were many bonfires burning around the venue, and next to each bonfire there was a large stone slab, on which, like the masked ball in Qianyu City, there were also several plates of fruit and water. According to tradition, each female could freely choose a bonfire.
There were already many orcs on the grass at this time. The little cubs were chasing and playing on the field. The drums were rumbling and the stone chimes were ringing in the distance. The scene was very lively.
Luo Yuanyuan habitually found a secluded place to sit down with Xue Ji.
As soon as she sat down, a male's voice next to her rang out enthusiastically: "Little female, what a coincidence, we meet again."
Luo Yuanyuan looked over.
It turned out to be the shop owner who sold her the fruit at a high price.
"Hello." Luo Yuanyuan also greeted with a smile.
There was also a middle-aged female next to the owner's bonfire, surrounded by thirty or forty males, both middle-aged and young.
Hearing the soft voice of the little female, the orcs all turned their heads to look.
Then the next second, a handsome young boy ran out from the group of males, holding a peach-shaped fruit in his hand, looking at her with bright eyes:
"Sister, you are so beautiful. I want to be your partner. Can you accept my dream fruit?"
Xue Ji glanced at the young boy unhappily and tightened his arms around the young female.
Luo Yuanyuan laughed: "How old are you and you already want to be together?!"
"I'm already twelve years old, sister. Daddy said that you should find a partner as early as possible, especially a beautiful female like you. You must act early." The young boy said seriously.
Luo Yuanyuan smiled even more happily: "I'm sorry, little brother, I already have several partners, I won't accept any more."
The young boy was very disappointed and blinked his eyes and said, "Sister, can you take off your veil and show it to me?"
Luo Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes, lifted a corner of her veil and waved at him:
"Come, come closer~"
The young boy ran forward happily, and after seeing the true appearance of the little female, his eyes widened and he exclaimed: "Sister, are you a fairy?"
Luo Yuanyuan was amused again and took out some potato chips for him to eat.
The young boy's eyes brightened now. He simply decided not to leave. He sat down next to Luo Yuanyuan and started to chew the food.
At this time, three majestic figures appeared on the high platform on the grass.
In the middle was an orc in his fifties with a neat short beard. He scanned the crowd with sharp eyes, raised his arm, signaled the drums to stop, and said loudly:
"Tonight is an important moment. Our South Beast City has ushered in the annual Dream Festival. In this wonderful festival, everyone is reveling. Now, please invite our great Beast King to light the sacred fire for the Dream Festival. I wish everyone will get what they want tonight!"
The next moment, Luo Yuanyuan saw the man in red, surrounded by seven or eight orcs, walking slowly up to the platform. He nodded slightly to the cheering orcs, then turned over his white palm, and a ball of bright blue flame suddenly appeared in his palm.
With a slight lift, the flame turned into a line of fire and flew straight to the dry wood in the center of the platform. In an instant, flames soared into the sky and all the beasts roared.
Luo Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment.
