Chapter 99
==================
They traveled through mountains and rivers to come here. Luo was on the verge of death in the previous second, and was cured in the next second.
Lian Yun was silent for a moment. After a moment, she nodded, accepting the fact, and then tentatively asked, "Anything I should be aware of?"
"What precautions?" the queen asked slowly.
Lian Yun: "For example...drink more hot water?"
Unexpectedly, the Queen rolled her eyes, as if she was really thinking about this question.
Everyone stared at her blankly until she nodded thoughtfully, her words revealing a serious tone: "Drink if you're thirsty. It shouldn't be a problem. It's just that it's too hot and might burn your mouth."
“…”
Listening to your words is like listening to your words.
Lian Yun shut up and stopped asking nonsense questions.
The Elf Queen is the Elf Queen, don't doubt her strength.
Lian Yun was extremely confident that Luo was really fine at this moment, because he could now accurately find his position and pull his sleeve.
"grown ups……"
He wanted to tell Lian Yun that he was feeling much better, but he still couldn't make a sound.
Lian Yun frowned slightly: "You still can't speak?"
The queen turned her head to the side, leaving Lian Yun with a perfect profile. Her cold fingertips stroked Luo's throat, and a thin layer of ice seemed to have formed in her calm eyes.
"Just like his eyes, it'll take some time to heal." She withdrew her hand, paused, and added, "They must have poisoned him in the wrong place. Otherwise, he would be dead by now."
The queen's gentle voice reached everyone's ears, but it was horrifying.
In other words, Luo was really poisoned and became like this, or it was the murderer's mistake.
Lina grabbed Luo's arm anxiously: "So, you were drugged? Last night? But..."
But if even the most dangerous and serious internal organs can be cured, why is the throat so difficult to treat?
Luo nodded slightly.
Seeing that he couldn't speak, Lina became extremely anxious. The Queen told him what she had just sensed: "The mouth and throat were burned by the poison, but the condition further down was not that serious. I have never encountered such a case. If you ask me to make an inference, I can only guess that it was a failed murder attempt. But there are other possibilities."
She paused, thought for a moment, and then continued, "Such a poison... There are no herbs in our forest that can detoxify it. I am the only one who can treat it. This boy has a special physique, which is why he has been able to hold on for so long. If it were someone else, they would probably die quickly. You must be more careful in the future."
After all, not everyone is so lucky to survive until she comes for treatment.
"Even the Elf Forest doesn't have any herbs that can detoxify?" Lian Yun's expression gradually became serious. The elves' racial talents, coupled with their unique geographical location, have allowed the growth of a wide variety of plants. This Elf Forest is the cleanest and most abundant place on the entire continent. If there is no antidote here...
Wouldn't it be possible for the person who controls this poison to act with impunity?
The Elf Queen couldn't have failed to think of this, but judging from her appearance, she didn't seem to care about the world outside the forest.
Lian Yun couldn't help but feel a little curious about her.
Just now, on the way here with Aning, she learned that the Elf Queen is the supreme being in the hearts of the elves. To the elves, she is a god, honor, authority, and a combination of wisdom and beauty.
This perfect elven queen also has a heart more noble and kind than anyone else. No matter how serious the wounds of her tribesmen are, they can ask her for healing.
She established rules for her tribe, requiring elves to help each other without reservation.
Because elves other than the royal bloodline only have the ability to heal others, they need to help each other in order to maintain the continuation of the entire race.
From Aning's mouth, they knew that she was a kind goddess of life who possessed the power of nature and loved every living thing, even a wild grass.
Lian Yun suddenly remembered what Fude said. He said that the elves were isolated from the world in every sense of the word.
Is it really so?
Lian Yun shook his head secretly and temporarily suppressed his thoughts.
The queen treated Luo personally without saying a word. Lian Yun was already very grateful, and now she was helping them analyze the situation. They had nothing else to ask for.
Not to mention now that they know that the Elf Queen is the only one in the entire continent who can cure this poison...
What should Luo do if she refuses to take action?
Lian Yun thanked her sincerely.
The queen's gaze fell on Lina, her eyes were light, but deep and unfathomable: "All these years, my wait has not been in vain."
Lina blinked cautiously, not understanding what she meant.
“It’s worth it.”
Is it an illusion?
I seemed to hear her very faint sigh.
The queen stood quietly, her hands hanging at her sides, tall and independent, so cold that she was unapproachable.
But she reached out and placed her hand on top of Lina's head.
Lina felt her movement, and the cold hand slid to her face again. Before Lina could say anything, the queen suddenly squatted down.
The white eyes looked at her, and she could not see any emotion in them, but she felt that the unattainable woman in front of her was related to her by blood.
It was like a tenuous connection, different from Xiaoqi's love that was beyond words. It was a connection that ran through the blood, the bones, and the genes.
Lina's feeling is always accurate, more like a talent, guiding her to choose the right route.
"I should call you..." Lina said softly.
"grandmother."
The Queen responded softly, but quickly.
Lina looked up at Lian Yun, then looked away and looked at the strange and noble woman.
"……grandmother."
"Yes." The queen responded again very quickly, fearing that she would take back this exclusive title that she had waited for for a long time in the next second.
Lian Yun's heart finally settled down. Even though she looked calm, Lian Yun could see that her feelings for Lina, a relative she had never met, were no less than Lina's.
The woman's silver hair hung down to the ground, and she half-knelt like an ice statue, staring silently at the brown-haired, green-eyed girl in front of her.
The transparent thread was intricately entangled between the two people, and they were connected uninterruptedly even though they were thousands of miles apart.
Now they finally meet.
They looked at each other for a long time, until the woman felt that her cold hands seemed to be warmed up by Lina's covering hands.
It was the warmth she had been away from for a long time.
The woman suddenly looked dazed, her eyes half closed, as if she was caught off guard by the surging memories.
After a while, she came back to her senses, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and looked at the little girl again: "Why don't you come back?"
She envisioned many possibilities, starting very early on.
She has been waiting, she thought, maybe it will come soon, maybe it will take a long time to see him, or maybe he will never come in this lifetime.
Lina held her grandmother's cold hands tightly with her two small hands, trying hard to pass on the warmth to her.
Hearing this, she pursed her lips and said, "I don't know who my parents are, and I never thought I would have a grandmother..."
"My mother died giving birth to me. I just found out a few days ago."
The little girl talked about sad things, but she forced herself to laugh, as if she was afraid that the listeners would be sadder than her.
The queen was stunned.
She had naturally thought of this possibility, but...
Thinking and hearing are different.
Especially the girl in front of her, she is her descendant, her son's descendant, and her only remaining relative in the world.
Is it a blood connection?
Lina was smiling, but she felt heartbroken when she saw it.
Seeing that she didn’t speak, Lina didn’t know what to say, so she could only follow her own thoughts and ask the question she wanted to know most: “Grandma…where is my father?”
The queen stroked her hair and whispered the cruel truth: "Dead."
"He gave your mother his most precious gift, allowing her to travel freely through the mist. This is a privilege unique to the elven royal family."
The queen said in a very calm tone: "It is also the life of the royal elves."
Her son, Miu.
He is the most outstanding being among the elves. His talent in healing, combined with his hard work, makes his healing ability even likely to surpass his own.
He is the future hope of the elves and a noble prince who will inherit her position.
Like her, he has cold skin, and like her, he is high above everyone else, the object of worship by all elves.
But she knew that Miao was not happy.
He didn't like getting close to his tribesmen, and didn't like communicating with others. Unlike her, as an elf prince, he was too lazy to even show superficial concern for other elves.
But it doesn't matter, she knows, and Miu also knows, that one day he will take over the queen's position and become the new king of the elves.
The Queen allowed him to have a little capriciousness before dedicating his life to her.
Until one day, Mu, who was alone outside as usual, returned to the palace. The queen clearly felt the lively atmosphere around him, as if he had become a different person, and the breath of life was all around him.
"I saw a girl with silver hair. She was not an elf."
On the fifth day, Miao finally talked to her about his worries.
She had never seen him like this before.
It is a happiness that cannot be expressed in words, and it is the happiness that overflows from every expression and every action.
She listened quietly: "You saved her."
Miu smiled softly.
Anyone who passed through the fog would surely die without the royal family's medical treatment.
Although the royal family has such ability, it also consumes a great deal of energy and vitality.
"That's right." Miao smiled quietly.
He burned his own life to save her.
The Queen said nothing.
She wouldn't stand in Myu's way.
This is his own life. He met someone who was worth his sacrifice, just like when he fell in love with his father without hesitation.
Even though we can't be together forever, we are happy with it.
She let Mu go find the girl.
A long time passed.
It had been so long that I thought life would go on like this, that Miao could always be happy like this, and that he could always pursue his happiness.
This is good. As long as she is here, she can protect Mu's freedom for one day.
Until, Miao fell seriously ill.
"She will come back..."
He gave the core to the girl so that she could leave the forest and go back to say goodbye to her friends.
For the first time, she wanted to blame the girl.
Miao waited for a long time.
She waited with Mu for countless days and nights.
In the cold palace, two cold shadows, one sitting and one lying.
Until she saw with her own eyes that the heat in Mu's eyes slowly dissipated.
His hands slowly dropped.
Eyes closed quietly.
She could not forget Miao's last words.
The last sentence is full of warmth: "We have a child, she will come back..."
