Volume II Lotus 176 . Fourth Ghost God: Saya of Frost
When Xiu Zhe sighed, a tidal wave of memories also poured into his mind,
Saya is the princess of the ancient kingdom 'Bell' thousands of years ago, and she fell in love with John, the prince of the neighboring 'Zaom' empire, and made a private agreement for life.
Unfortunately, the relationship between the two empires between Bell and Zaom deteriorated rapidly, and the lovers were forced to fight each other. Saya hoped that John would keep his vows and leave everything behind and fly away with himself, but John remained indifferent because in his opinion, the interests of the kingdom were paramount. Saya was so disappointed that she left in anger. Subsequently, a large-scale war broke out between the two countries.
After all, the kingdom of Zaom was defeated by the kingdom of Bell, and the enemy army broke through the walls and broke into the palace. Princess Saya, who led the army, killed John who appeared in front of her with her own hands after entering the palace of the Zaom Empire, and then she also ended her life next to John's corpse.
The sadness and resentment of Saya before his death were like an eternal shackle, firmly binding the entire Calamity Shore Palace, and sinking into the dark ground together. Saya and his former lover John have also turned into ghosts and gods, cursing each other for eternity in the underground palace, fighting endlessly.
Until a few decades ago, Jige found the underground palace where the two were located, but only took Saya away, as for John, who once wanted to be a part of Jiger, but was blocked by Saya and couldn't be subdued, even if Saya loved John deeply, he couldn't tolerate what John did back then, and he has been resisting John becoming a part of Jiger.
"What's wrong with you?" Ophelia looked at Xiu Zhe's pensive appearance and couldn't help asking, "Didn't the great blue truth tell you to solve your doubts?" ”
Xiu Zhe came back to his senses from Saya's story and snorted disdainfully: "This broken book only told me a story, and then threw me a whole bunch of puzzles. ”
Ophelia bit her lip and said, "Then you don't want to enter again, right?" ”
"That would cost you too much, wouldn't it? I only need to enter it once, although there are still many puzzles in my mind that are still unsolved, but it is enough to know what an apostle is, I think..."Xiu Zhe wanted to say that Luxi's death may have something to do with the second apostle named Herder, but this is only his unilateral conjecture.
Shaking his head, Xiu Zhe swallowed what he was about to say back into his stomach, looked at Ophelia, who was slightly pale, and said, "It's nothing, are you okay?" ”
Ophelia squeezed out a smile and said, "It's okay, I've been using the great blue truth to solve your puzzles, it's a bit of a drain on my soul, just take a rest, Isadullah will help me go back to rest." Let's go, the Sky Veil Behemoth should have begun to approach Sky City by now. ”
Xiu Zhe glanced at Ophelia, and when he was about to walk out of the secret room, Xiu Zhe turned back and said, "Thank you, and.. Good bye. ”
Ophelia smiled genuinely and said, "We'll see you again for sure." ”
Looking at the back of Xiu Zhe leaving, a trace of loneliness and reluctance flashed in Ophelia's eyes, although Xiu Zhe had clearly rejected her, but her feelings would not be erased because of a word.
Walking out of the secret room, Xiu Zhe looked at Forrest Gump who was sitting aside as if he had lost his soul, although he couldn't bear it, he didn't say anything, he remembered what the great blue truth told him, Luxi's resurrection is indeed a possibility, although there is little hope, Xiu Zhe also wants to try to get someone from the hands of death.
On the other side, Isadullah had already walked into the secret room, and held the somewhat pale Ophelia and walked towards the sect leader's hall, Ophelia came out of the secret room and disappeared from everyone's field of vision, she didn't look at Xiu Zhe again from beginning to end, she was afraid that as long as she looked at Xiu Zhe, she couldn't help but abandon the position of sect leader.
But it was this performance that made it even more noticeable, with Kelly and Albert snickering on the side, glancing at Xiu Zhe from time to time.
Yong Shili came to Xiu Zhe's side without paying attention and whispered, "Isadullah said that when you are finished, the Heavenly Veil Giant Beast has also arrived on the West Coast, and we should also go." ”
Xiu Zhe closed his eyes, took a deep breath of air, and when he opened his eyes, his whole temperament seemed to have changed greatly.
The appearance is still the same, but there is a hint of coldness, Yong Shili's silver-blue brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't say anything, and followed Xiu Zhe's side, and walked out of the library pavilion under the leadership of the GBL disciples, and walked towards the periphery of the temple, the Heavenly Veil Giant Beast would lean its body against the Sky City according to the position everyone was in now, so that everyone could leave.
Everyone is thinking about their own hearts, and this encounter with the great blue truth has made it clear to some people that they have their goals, and some people have lost their goals.
"Saya, you want to see. John? Xiu Zhe asked in his heart.
Saya didn't reply, but the ghosts and gods and Xiu Zhe's intentions are the same, how can the sadness, longing and hatred in her heart be hidden in front of Xiu Zhe?
"I also know the location of the palace of the Calamity, Gig has been there with Prunmont and Kaija, if you want to see him, I can take you there." Xiu Zhe continued to ask in his heart.
After being silent for a long time, Saya finally said in Xiuzhe's heart: "I don't want to see him, but you need strength, Jige back then would not have become a ghost if he had John's help, you are indispensable to all the ghosts and gods in the world, and if we ghosts and gods want to become normal people and live again, it depends on you to break the shackles." ”
"Don't worry, I know very well why you are assisting me, and I will not disappoint you, when I leave the Heavenly Veil Behemoth this time, I will set off for the Ten Thousand Years Snow Mountain, the silent place of the Calamity Shore Palace." Xiu Zhe said softly.
"You.. Watch out for Keja. Saya's voice had a hint of emotion, a feeling akin to concern.
The conversation between one person and one ghost could not be heard by outsiders or the ghosts and gods who were now awakened in his body, Xiu Zhe smiled slightly and said to Saya in his heart: "Saya, I said, I know very well what you are assisting me for." ”
Saya stopped talking, and Yong Shili, who was beside Xiu Zhe, asked with some confusion: "This time, the voice coming from your body is no longer a mournful wail, but a woman's crying?" ”
Xiu Zhe was slightly stunned and then smiled: "Oh, that's when I just communicated with the Frost Saya in my body. It's true that I'm not as insensitive to magic as the outside world seems, and I haven't been able to detect that Saya is a ghost. ”
"Luo Lian said a long time ago that the crystal ball could not be broken by ten layers of magic induction, and Teacher Shalan also said that the crystal ball was shattered because it couldn't withstand the huge amount of magic power." Kelly said eloquently: "At that time, the teacher still wanted to go to the Imperial Sword Academy to ask for someone, but he was stopped by Alice, saying that it is the choice of fate to let you pick up the sword, and a lot of mysterious and incomprehensible words. ”
