Chapter 278 The Heavenly Palace

There are no airplanes in this world, no humans or machines, and the desert cannot be explored from the air.

Otherwise, this pearl in the desert will definitely become a landmark building. The oasis is already very conspicuous, and the pearl embedded in the oasis is even more eye-catching.

The convoy slowly drove into the base camp of Fuyu Tiangong, which they called Tiangong.

In fact, in my opinion, this place is just a desert town. Only the ruins of the ancient city wall are left, and two sides are missing. The people from the Tiangong did not repair it.

The houses and buildings in the city are all made of fish bones and turtle shells. Compared with the pearl, these creatures are obviously larger in size.

I don’t know much about ancient marine life. Of course, that’s not important. What’s important is that there is gold everywhere!

Leaving aside the structure of the houses, utensils covered with gold and inlaid with precious stones can be seen everywhere.

The door curtain hooks of ordinary houses are made of gold, and the wind chimes hanging in the windows are made of gold and precious stones.

All the pots and bowls have gold edges.

Some use gold bowls and agate plates directly on the small table at the door to hold nuts, as if they are not worried about anyone stealing them.

What's more, they used colored gems to decorate the exterior walls of their houses and used them to create various patterns of flowers, birds and animals. Several walls were fully inlaid. In their eyes, gems were like stained glass in the eyes of modern people.

I secretly planned to empty out the Rain-covering Heavenly Palace, but the original plan might not work.

I thought they just had some savings, but now it seems they are sitting on a mountain of gold and precious stones, with most of their wealth still underneath.

It is estimated that no outsiders come to Fuyutian Palace in normal times. When the residents in the city saw us coming in, they all stood at the door to 'visit'. They stopped what they were doing, and those who were in the house also ran out to watch.

They have their own language, which is incomprehensible to outsiders when they communicate.

Much like the dialect, there was already a group of people waiting in the city, lining up to welcome us.

Earlier, we saw an eagle circling above the team. It must have been sending a message back to inform the people in the Heavenly Palace that a 'guest' had arrived.

Fuyutian Palace has branches in Fengqi Shikoku and Yuancheng. They contact the dark forces of the martial arts and recruit evil sects, so they use the branches as their stronghold.

Only your own people can come to the Heavenly Palace, and they have more than one doctor in the palace. They have superb medical skills and rich experience. They used to be apprentices to the chief physician in the palace, studied with him for many years, and worked in the Imperial Hospital for ten years.

In addition to doctors who had official status, there were also quacks in the palace who were also famous figures.

They all said that the new palace master's illness could not be cured, so the servants ran outside to find a doctor.

There are many people who want the new palace master dead. They don't dare to act in a high profile, so they send the kidnapping team to travel quietly.

Perhaps they believed too much in my medical skills and were sure that the new palace master could be saved, so they no longer kept a low profile and took us into the city in a high profile, shouting casually that they had invited a miracle doctor for the palace master. Don't block the way. Delay the miracle doctor to treat the palace lord.

Now everyone in the Heavenly Palace knows that I am a miracle doctor. From the emotional changes of the ordinary palace people, I can see their love for the new palace master.

When they heard that the Palace Master was rescued, they were obviously happy and full of hope.

Yet there are several undertones of hostility hidden among the benevolent sentiments.

I caught it, and secretly released the air thread to lock the target, intending to track them.

The welcoming messenger took us to stay in a building below the Big Pearl. It is a quadrangle surrounded by four two-story buildings, and there is a garden in the courtyard.

There were so many people in the convoy that we couldn't fit in one building. The envoy was very polite to us, prepared sumptuous meals and hot water, and asked us to rest for a night before going to see the palace owner tomorrow.It was afternoon when we arrived, and there were still several hours before evening. After eating, taking a shower, we rested in our respective rooms.

Trekking in the desert is indeed very tiring, and the people in the team slept from the afternoon until the early morning of the next day.

After receiving my order, they could rest with peace of mind.

Two "thieves" tried to break into the house at night, carrying knives and poisonous snakes with them. They were discovered by the guards outside the door and had to run away.

The new palace master must have known that some people wanted him to die. He knew that I was a miracle doctor who had been paid a lot of money and would send people to assassinate me. Therefore, since I entered Tiangong City, there were people who overtly and covertly protected me and the convoy.

When we slept at night, there were people guarding the door. I thought these people were reliable, so I asked the people in the convoy to sleep peacefully.

No wonder the previous palace owner was so arrogant. Tiangong is really rich. I was so rich that I couldn't sleep at all. I spent the whole night thinking about how to turn their money into mine.

Therefore, I didn't miss the little noises in the night. When dawn came, the guards outside the door quietly withdrew. The people in the convoy got up and washed, came over to check on me, and brought me breakfast into the house.

Seeing that nothing happened all night, they went to the yard to unload the cart. Yesterday they only untied the horses and let people lead them to graze. The boxes on the cart were not moved down.

I have to go into the palace to see the palace owner this morning. If everything goes well, I can leave with the money. They will start preparations after breakfast.

I actually didn't want to leave so quickly, but I didn't share this idea with anyone.

After dinner, someone came to pick me up. It was not a carriage, but a sedan carried by manpower. The quadrangle was very close to the residence of the palace owner, so there was no need to take a carriage.

It took a few minutes to get to the place, but you need a waist badge to get in, and there is strict security at the door.

The master of the palace lived under the large pearl, which was the dome of the building and there were larger buildings below.

This is a palace built of fish bones. The pillars and walls are inlaid with pearls or gems. Crystals are also decorations. There are countless decorations with gold edges and patches.

There are two jade sculptures at the entrance of the palace, and there are two gold vases taller than me at the entrance, with landscape trees made of jade, gemstones, etc. inserted in them.

The road leading to the throne in the main hall is paved with gold bricks, and seven-color gems are embedded in the gold bricks.

The throne of the palace lord is made of the shell of a giant clam. I have some doubts. This heavenly palace was originally a dragon palace on the seabed. Due to the vicissitudes of the sea, the sea water disappeared, the seabed turned into a desert, and the dragon palace became a building on the ground.

The new palace master is sitting on the throne. He is wearing a white robe and does not have many accessories. The few pieces he has are minimalist and not eye-catching.

He is younger than the previous palace master, and looks to be in his early twenties, which is the age when it is easy to be trapped by love.

I stepped forward and saluted, neither humble nor overbearing. He quickly stood up and told me that there was no need to be like this. I was their honored guest. It was already very rude of him not to greet me at the city gate in person.

He said he wasn't feeling well, which was true, and he was in really bad shape.

"Palace Master, I don't like to beat around the bush. If I have something to say, I'll say it directly. You're not lovesick, you're poisoned." I saw his face as soon as I entered the door and used my powers to check his body.

He looked sad and worried.

On the surface, it looks like he is in a bad mood and is worried about something.

But in fact, he has a worm inside!
