Chapter 672: Ping Ping's Story
Chapter 672 Ping Ping tells a story
Lilupal then talked about the Eternal Oasis, saying that it was the place where the Flower God fell and that it was a mausoleum built with the efforts of the Red King and Zhen Ling.
Su felt that the golden dreamland and eternal oasis that the desert people dreamed of were the biggest scam of the desert.
The Golden Dreamland is actually the Red King’s tomb.
They said they could gain Achmar's power and wisdom there, but except for them, none of the people who successfully arrived there could return.
The Eternal Oasis is the tomb of the goddess of flowers.
Who knows what kind of ambush or trap Chi Wang and Zhen Ling, who are full of evil intentions and schemes, will set there.
Lilupal asked her highness to rest assured, "My mistress deserves the best in the world, and there will be no danger in the Eternal Oasis."
The dangers of Eternal Oasis are all outside, and the endless sandstorms are the best security.
Paimon thought of the huge sandstorm that was like a whirlpool on Mount Dama. "I didn't expect that what Jade said, that Madam Babel told her that the Eternal Oasis was in the center of the sandstorm, was actually true."
Sora added, "She also knows that there is a town spirit in Gul City that can open a passage to the Eternal Oasis."
Su: "So that woman Babel has been planning to take over Zhenling and Eternal Oasis for a long time!"
Zhen Ling laughed sarcastically and said, "That woman's delusion is to control Zhen Ling, reach and occupy the Eternal Oasis, and become the king of the new city-state."
When she woke up and saw the barren environment with yellow sand all over the sky and the desert slave girl's humble yet lustful face, what else was there for her not to understand?
The Traveler Team looked at each other, and Su spread his hands.
They just accompanied Jade on the trip and satisfied their curiosity. If Babel really wanted to occupy the Eternal Oasis, they would just sit in the audience and watch the town spirit fight the bad woman.
Su took out a Mora and placed it on his left side, "I bet Zhen Ling will win."
Paimon also took out his private money and followed suit, "I'll bet on Ping Ping too."
Su held two pieces of Mora in his left hand and stretched out his empty right hand in front of Sora, "Come on, place your bet."
Sora slapped the girl's hand down and held it, "I'm not coming if you two leave me with an option that I must pay for."
Su sighed. If no one was a loser, this gambling game couldn't be started at all.
Paimon remembered something. "Su, we have collected a lot of historical materials in the desert. Can you start writing your paper?"
Sue: "No, there are still many details that have not been sorted out. I don't want to write it now and then overhaul it later. I just want to finish it once and not revise it. It's enough to suffer through it once!"
Lilupal floated over, "My Lord, why don't you ask the magic bottle?"
When it comes to the truth and details of desert history, no one knows it better than she does.
"That's right! You are an old antique!" Su stabbed Lilupal in the heart with a knife, and then doubted: "But, is what you said true? Come on, swear."
She knew that the bottle also had the intention of using their traveler team. With the contract, he probably wouldn't dare to harm them, but he had a lot of extra thoughts.
"I swear that I will never lie to you and my lord." As soon as Lilupal finished the oath, he felt something in his soul was bound.
After the moon lotus petals in the bottle changed color in confusion for a while, Lilupal's voice became softer.
"I never thought that my Highness had such power. Come, I will tell you everything I know and present the facts to you."
Sora responded quickly, "Many times, facts are not necessarily equal to the truth."
"So Lilupal is still angry," Su said with a grin, "Don't be angry. I feel like you're very good at those messy things. I always have to be on guard."
When Candice knew that they would be doing archaeological work in the desert for some time, she worriedly reminded her to be careful of strangers.
The bottle easily fooled the cunning Babel, so she had to be on guard against this clever bottle from climbing over the heads of their traveling group.
The petals in the magic bottle turned pink, and Zhen Ling said sweetly: "I really love you more and more, my highness."
Su simply ignored this sentence, and after confirming with the town spirit who had sworn an oath that there was indeed no conspiracy or danger inside the Eternal Oasis, he began to verify and analyze history.
Su: "First of all, do you know what the Red King is studying when he retreats to the Red King Mausoleum to concentrate on his research?"
Lilupal: "In the beginning, His Majesty wanted to create a new world, a land of peace and happiness. There, humans are not controlled by fate, nor are they controlled by gods. They have true freedom."
Su understood, but the Red King could not create the world. In order to help him realize his dream, the Flower God sacrificed herself to open the channel to forbidden knowledge.
"Then my mistress fell asleep. His Majesty, overwhelmed with grief, gathered her grieving family and promised to call her back. His Majesty and the spirits built the Eternal Oasis."
Su sorted out the situation.
After the Flower God's tomb was built, the Red King retreated into the Red King's Mausoleum to study the forbidden knowledge that the Flower God had exchanged for his own life, in an attempt to revive the Flower God.
Inferring from the characteristics of the Golden Dreamland, the flower god is likely to have died without a trace left, and probably only his soul can be brought back.
The Red King probably wanted to create a world that was not affected by the material world and where consciousness and soul could exist forever, where he could reunite with the flower god.
However, this idea still failed. The Red King's dreams were shattered one after another, and even he himself could not withstand the erosion of forbidden knowledge.
Eventually the Red King died in the Red King's Tomb, and Apep came to fulfill the contract and ate his body and forbidden knowledge.
The Tree King, who arrived upon receiving the notification, purified the remaining forbidden knowledge in the desert and collected his demon fragments.
The remaining spiritual world of the Red King is what the world calls the Golden Dreamland.
Lilupal continued to talk, "After completing the Eternal Oasis, His Majesty will seal off the Red King's Tomb and concentrate on research. In order to prevent the desert humans from falling into endless wars due to the loss of God's guidance, His Majesty assigned me to find a human king who can command the desert."
Su: "Human King? Why not give it to the seven famous saints under the Red King?"
Judging from the mural in the secret passage, the Seven Saints are below the Red King.
Judging from the statues in the ruins, none of the Seven Saints are human.
Lilupal confirmed Su's guess, saying that except for the Grass Dragon, the rest of the Seven Saints were defeated demons who surrendered to the Scarlet King.
The Red King stripped away the part of their bodies that made them "gods", used his own flesh and blood to maintain their bodies and strength, and took them as his subjects.
Lilupal sighed, "Humans are the favorites of my Lord. He will certainly not entrust humans to the hands of the Seven Saints."
Paimon: "Where did the Seven Saints go? We can't find any historical records about them."
Pingzi turned to Su, "My Lord, what do you think?"
Su stroked his chin, "If I were the Red King... well! After all, I should just kill them all."
Since the Red King is worried that no one will be able to suppress these subordinates after he goes into seclusion, why not kill them all and all the worries will be gone.
“Hahahahahaha!” The Zhen Ling in the bottle laughed out loud and praised sincerely: “You are a natural tyrant, my highness.”
