Chapter 1087: Better Than a Miracle (Part II)
It dawned on Ed. He felt that Husuo's square chin was a little familiar...... Lin Mi looks very much like her mother, but her square chin is obviously inherited from her father.
Bertram's expression remained unchanged, and he drank to himself. It's no secret that the owner and the queen have a daughter, but it's rarely mentioned, after all, Huso and Taiyi are not a normal couple - Taiyi needs a daughter, but she doesn't need a husband.
The Brie people revere the queen, but it is the owner of the island who is more respected and loved.
"I rarely get to see her. Husso sighed.
Ed didn't know what to say, and he wasn't even sure if Husso knew that his daughter looked about his age now.
Husso didn't seem to need a response. He quickly hid the loneliness, and said with a smile: "Attending the Brie people's banquet can't just sit here and drink. ”
He kicked Bertram's knee, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and his actions and tone were casual, "Are you getting lazier and lazier, and don't you take your friends for a spin?"
Ed had actually wanted to run away for a long time. There are always people sitting here who come to talk—the campfires here are very large, and the people sitting around them are all guests, priests from Neo, captains of warships, and even captains of merchant ships...... Because he was both the "Sage" and the son of a great merchant, almost everyone could find a topic to talk to him and have a few glasses of wine, even if most of the time he was just pretending and no one cared, and now he felt that he was half drunk.
Now that he's greeted his master, he's done his "mission" and can run around as willfully as Is! The last time he visited, he really didn't have much interest in Rainbow Bend Island - after all, this was where his father hid his illegitimate daughter. But now, like Bertram, he couldn't help but dislike the island and the cheerful Brie
In his expectant gaze, Bertram stood up.
"There is no temple like ours on the island, but there is a statue of the god of the sea. He said nonchalantly, "Do you want to go and see it?"
.
Ed wasn't too surprised when he met Husuo again without seeing the statue of Poseidon.
He never deliberately concealed it. With Bertram's eyesight, it is impossible not to see that, although he is a priest, his faith is very ...... It's hard to put into words, and Bertram himself doesn't seem to be a devout believer. If he didn't have any special intentions, he really didn't need to drag him to see the Poseidon statue.
Obviously, there are some things that Husso doesn't want people to hear.
"I know Lin Mi took you and your Ice Dragon friend to the Valley of the Winds. Hu Suo considered his mouth, but could not hide his concern, "they ...... Are you alright?"
He smiled wryly before Ed could reply.
"I know that it was Lin Mi who appeared in front of people during the day. He said, "...... But I didn't even dare to look at her. I know that for them, the passage of time is different from ordinary people...... When I met Lin Mi a few years ago, she was only five years old, but she looked like a teenage girl. That was the last time I saw her. ”
He was scared. He thought it better to keep the shadow of that immature girl in his heart, rather than seeing her gray hair before he grew old.
Ed felt something weigh heavily on his chest. He could understand the fear, just as he occasionally thought of Is's long life, of him and Naria dying of old age before he came of age as a dragon...... In the heart of Is, the same fear is hidden, right?
"Sometimes, I want them to get out of there. Husso whispered, "I hope that what they have guarded for generations will no longer exist...... I hope they can live under the sun like ordinary people. ”
Ed's eyes widened—hoping he was overthinking, but it sounded like some kind of hint.
"Don't get me wrong. "I know what's going on...... To be honest, I do think, 'That's fine,' but that's not what I did. ”
Ed breathed a sigh of relief. If it's really Huso...... He couldn't solve such a complicated family problem!
"They have a responsibility to play and they take pride in that – I can totally understand that. Hu Suo's expression was complicated, "They also guard Hongwan Island in their own way, but if they stay in that kind of place day after day, one day, they will lose their ......"
He thought for a moment before finding the right words and patted his chest: "Passion in the blood." They keep their responsibilities, but they lose their love...... I know I'm selfish to think so, but the warning they get from what they are guarding, at such a great cost, is not impossible to get as long as we are vigilant and have enough sources—the Brie believe in the gods, but they don't rely on them. ”
“...... You don't want me to get it back. Ed understood.
Maybe he was too frank, so frank that even Husso was a little embarrassed – but he didn't deny it.
Ed laughed heartily.
"I think you should go and see your wife and daughter. "You should listen to what they want." ”
From start to finish, Tye never said anything about letting him bring back the gust of wind...... She never said it was an artifact that belonged to the Rainbow Island and the Brie people. In a sense, she had given it to him, and she was clearly relieved to do so.
Husuo looked at him, the doubt in his eyes gradually turned into unbelievable joy, and that bright smile made him look like a young warrior, because he thought of the girl he loved, and he was a little silly happy.
“...... I bet he didn't even notice I was here. ”
After Husso's hasty farewell, Bertram emerged from the shadows and complained half-truthfully.
He deliberately walked away, not hearing anything, but he could see the eagerness and joy in Husuo's footsteps—the middle-aged man, who had always been steady, was about to jump.
Ed smiled and didn't speak. He's in a good mood at this point.
"The statue of the sea god is there. Bertram casually pointed to his hand and didn't ask much, "Do you want to see it?"
Since you're here, you always have to take a look.
The statue of the sea god on Rainbow Bend Island is carved out of a single block of obsidian, blurred in the moonlight, glowing softly. The goddess has thin eyebrows that are slightly curved, drooping eyelids, and the curvature of her lips is faintly smiling, and she looks gentle and kind, more like a mother than a god.
At the foot of the statue of the goddess is the churning waves, and the little Buri people drive light boats through it, and there is a line of words hidden in the waves, deliberately inlaid with reflective spars, which are particularly conspicuous in the moonlight.
"What does that mean?" Ed asked.
"Children of the sea, children of miracles. Bertram read to him, "From afar, to heaven and earth." ”
"Miracle child?" Ed was always a little sensitive to such words.
"Nothing specifically. Bertram told him, "The Brie have a proverb, 'Miracles are in everyone' or 'Everybody is a miracle.'......" That's probably what it means. ”
Ed crouched on the ground and chuckled slightly.
Yes, everyone is a miracle. Better than the miracles that one person has created...... It's everyone who can work miracles.
