Chapter 139 The Unknown Truth
Jacqueline was surprised, and she discovered something wrong.
That is, the physical condition of the tree people here does not seem to be very good. What should I say? They don’t look as lush as the tree people guards Jacqueline saw before. Most of them are like the tree people leading the way for Jacqueline. Most of them have yellow leaves on the branches and are not very healthy.
"Please, what do you mean?" Jacqueline walked forward and asked the tree man who led the way.
"Wutong Man, Brooke." The tree man was obviously very alert to Jacqueline, and he was cautious when answering.
"I want to ask a question, why are people here not feeling good? I mean health. Could it be that there is a recent epidemic?"
"The earth, the elements of the earth riots, and many of us are infected with diseases overnight." Treeman Brooke sighed, "I don't know why this happened. I'm so old and encountered such a situation for the first time."
"But I also saw that many tree people are still healthy." Jacqueline continued to raise her doubts.
"They are different. They are born for war and their vitality is much stronger than us. The impact they were not revealed so quickly for this earth element riot." Brooke patiently explained to Jacqueline.
"Is the riot of the earth element..." When talking about this topic, Jacqueline remembered her friends.
Jacqueline didn't know why the Puppet King did such an excessive thing to Jane and Sakura Mori, but it seemed that every time the Puppet King made an action, the world would fall into an ominous atmosphere, which made her very worried.
"Can the five-color flower cure such a disease?" Jacqueline couldn't help asking curiously.
On the surface, it is probably because of this that Brook is so anxious to buy five-color flowers.
"The Five Color Flower is not used to treat weakness." Brooke directly rejected Jacqueline's idea, "It is used to treat madness."
"Madness!?" Liu Pu seemed a little uneasy when he heard this name.
"What's wrong? Liu Pu?" Jacqueline was surprised by Liu Pu's strong reaction.
"No, I just haven't heard of this disease for a long time. How could your daughter get this disease?" Liu Pu shook his head and instead raised his doubts to Brooke.
"Who knows..." Brooke sighed, with a more bitter color on his face, and said, "You know, our tree people have a very strong ability to heal themselves, even several times stronger than orcs. In addition, we are not prone to diseases, so we don't have our own doctors, and there is no way to deal with such a rare disease. Fortunately, the madness appeared once a few hundred years ago, and many people remember that they also know that the Five Color Flower can relieve this disease."
"Is the madness of the tree man?" However, Feixue, who heard everything in Jacqueline's summoning space, rarely showed a worried look on her face.
Jacqueline and Liu Pu looked at each other, but said nothing, and followed Brooke into the transparent tent where he lived.
Inside the tent, Jacqueline saw a little tree man in the corner entangled by countless vines. She struggled desperately, trying to break free, but she was too weak to move.
In fact, this tree man is not small. At least compared to Jacqueline, she is about two Jacquelines. She is said to be small because she is relatively to Brooke and other tree man guards.
Jacqueline saw crazy blood red in the eyes of the little tree man, which made her a little scared.
When Brooke saw the little tree man like this, he kept sighing and shook his head, and then hurriedly took out the five-colored flowers from his arms.
Brooke put the five-colored flowers in a large jar made of stones on the side, mashed the herb with his hand as a hammer, then poured the water into the jar, and then stirred constantly, trying to make the essence of the medicine melt into the water.
Jacqueline was stunned by the sight of the stone water tank. Even ten Jacquelines combined may not be able to lift it, but Brooke easily moved it up, just like an ordinary human being treating an empty wooden barrel.
Jacqueline was also surprised to find that most of the decorations in Brooke's home were stone, and wood or ceramic products were rare.
Then Jacqueline understood the reason. After all, the tree people had huge bodies and infinite strength. They could easily accidentally break those fragile things. For this reason, they chose stone furniture. First, it was hard enough. If the tree people didn't really want to destroy it, it would be difficult for them to destroy it. Second, the stone furniture was durable. After all, the tree people had a long life. If they used stone furniture, they could be used for many years, which was much better than metal furniture.
After stirring vigorously for a while, Brooke felt that it was almost done, so he sprinkled the plate of potion on the little tree man wrapped in the vines.
Such a large tank of water was enough to wet the entire tree.
After the little tree man was soaked in the potion, his movements began to slow down, and then slowly closed his eyes, and finally he was only a slight sound of sleeping breathing.
"I hope she can recover soon." Brooke finally breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw the potion take effect.
Jacqueline looked at the sleeping tree man curiously and said, "What is the reason for madness? What was the last time madness occurred?"
Brooke looked at the human girl and didn't know why she was interested in such a question, but since the other party was his guest, he was obliged to answer Jacqueline's question.
"Last time, about eight hundred years ago, I wasn't very clear. I was only over two hundred years old." Brooke touched his head, which had not left a few leaves, and explained to Jacqueline at the warmth of the tree man's speech.
"It is said that many tree people were infected with such diseases. Even His Highness the Princess was unable to deal with the terrible plague. Later, the princess invited a friend to help, and solved the problem." Brooke looked at Liu Pu, as if he wanted the other party to take over his topic. "There was no follow-up after the incident, and this matter naturally faded into everyone's memory. Until now, the reason is not clear."
Liu Pu finally understood why Brooke looked at him with such a look. Perhaps this tree man thought she was an elf senior, so he might know the truth.
If he was a normal person who was clear-minded and had no curiosity, and would not want to understand something so thoroughly, but now things are related to Brook's daughter's safety, he would be so concerned.
But Liu Pu could only shake her head helplessly. She had indeed heard of "crazy disease", but that was only heard. Before the incident happened, she could not understand more detailed content at all, and she knew not much better than Brooke.
"Only His Highness the Princess will know the truth of this matter, maybe His Royal Highness will know." Liu Pu could only respond to the tree man's gaze with helpless smile.
