Chapter 35: Epilogue
Still don't believe me? Didn't you believe it when you were arrested on a cargo ship? "And then you suddenly 'figured it out' and thought we lied to you, right?" ”
Qian Xiuye said coldly: "Otherwise? Miracles are real. ”
Torture said: "Okay, then I'll tell the truth in the photo, from the beginning, the story is like this, in Persia many years ago, there were two men and a woman who were childhood sweethearts, the relationship was very good, A man has always loved C girl, although B man also likes C girl, but because of his humble status, he can only be jealous, and then the war broke out, as a nobleman, A man did not want to go to the battlefield, so, B man proposed that he was willing to replace A man at a critical moment, willing to replace him on the battlefield, hearing this, what do you think? ”
Qian Xiuye's brows furrowed and he didn't speak.
Torture Shu said: "That's right, in the first group of sculptures, it was actually Man A who showed his love to Girl C, and it should be Man B who pulled out the dagger, because even if it is a sculpture, there is no way to completely describe people's facial features so realistically, we think that we have fixed the identity of the three sculptures!" ”
After man A and man B went to the battlefield, the two have been fighting hard to kill the enemy, but at the critical moment, man B betrayed man A, so that man A was ambushed by the enemy and almost died, and then man B took man A's sword and went back to tell woman C that the news of man A's sacrifice, woman C was very sad, and man B took the opportunity to propose, and at the same time quietly killed the child of man A and girl C.
Qian Xiuye smiled when he heard this: "You are simply talking nonsense!" ”
Torture shook his head: "If you take a closer look at the murals in those iron palaces, those paintings are the truth, the missing parts of the statues and murals we see." ”
Of course, Qian Xiuye didn't look at it, but just stared into the eyes of the torture technique.
Xingshu continued: "Yi Nan didn't expect that A Nan was still alive and came back, because of his military exploits to become a king, B Nan was very jealous, and he was also worried that A Man would take revenge, so he secretly ran away, A Nan didn't retaliate against him, but kept hoping that C Girl would be happy, but what about C Girl? Because she lost her child, she also thinks that the child's death has something to do with her husband, if her husband can come back sooner, how can Otomo succeed? But man A misunderstood, thinking that woman C was empathetic and fell in love with man B......"
Heartbroken, he abandoned the throne and became a disciple of Manichaeism, during which time Oto-o deceived the people with lies and made the people think that their king was a demon, and a war broke out, a war that swept the whole country and caused chaos in the whole country.
In desperation, he had to find him, hoping that he would not do it, and he reached an agreement with him, and the content of the agreement was very simple - he would inherit the throne, play a scene with the king's army, kill his stand-in, and become the new king.
The war finally ended under the king's castle, and it seemed that the king's army won the war, and Otoo died, but in fact Otoo won, but Otome finally understood that everything was Otoo's conspiracy, so she tried to kill Oto, who became the king, but was recognized.
Oto, who became the king, knew the horror of religion, and not only banned the sect he founded, but also banned Manichaeism where A-man belonged, and hunted down A-man all over the world.
In prison, she met an elder of Manichaeism, and she was rescued by the elder who told her that if she wanted to overthrow Oto's rule, she could only rely on the power of the so-called "god".
At that time, the people were ruled by tyranny, and even began to miss Otoo, the religion he founded, but they didn't know that Otoo had become their king at this time.
At the same time, Oto, as the king, also began to secretly eradicate the remnants of all the sects he had established in the past, and gradually began to eradicate Manichaeism.
C-nu escaped from prison and joined up with A-o to build a real army, using the lies left by Oto-o in the past and the remnants of the sect to consolidate her own power, and created an ironclad hero, and began to launch an armed uprising against Oto-an's rule throughout the country.
The speed of this uprising was even faster than the previous one, and in just half a year, Bingnu's army came to the city, completely eradicated all of Oto's troops, and captured Oto's surrender alive, overthrowing his rule.
However, a country cannot be without a leader, it cannot be without a king, but it cannot let the man return again, what should it do?
The long-awaited girl was forced to be crowned in cheers and became the queen, but she still couldn't be with man A in the open, so she used the three miracles made up by man B in the past, and took advantage of the trust of the people and believers to start a new round of plans.
In prison, Man B didn't expect that the lie he had designed at the beginning would be used by the two avengers Man A and Woman C.
Under the command of Bingnu, the followers began to build a small iron palace, and Bingnu also declared that they would put all three miracles into the iron palace, in order to return the power that God had lent to the prophet.
The iron palace was finally built, and in front of a large number of people, Bingnu held a huge ceremony, and during the ceremony, Ototoshi was pushed into the iron palace in the form of sacrifice.
Subsequently, A Nan, who had been hiding in the Iron Palace, killed Yi Nan to avenge the past, and then pretended to be a resurrection from the dead, and walked out of the palace and staged a close-up magic of "the resurrection of the former king".
The people, who didn't know the inside story, were still excited when they saw this scene, shouting long live the king and queen, not knowing that they were just watching a grand magic show.
Speaking of this, he turned off the TV, looked at Qian Xiuye and said: "As the rulers of the country, Man A and Woman C know very well what kind of influence the sect they use will have, and they are also very worried that one day in the future, someone will repeat the old tricks and use the same means to overthrow their rule, so they began to merge Manichaeism and the Flint Sect founded by Ototo, and then in the name of mission, they expelled the elders of the sect who knew the inside story and respected them one by one, and sent troops to secretly follow them, Pick the right moment to assassinate and shut these people up forever! And a group of them, sent to the East, although they were also hunted down, but still a very small number of people survived, these people came to China, in the name of the Manichaean prophet, plus their own various iron casting technology and excellent mechanical skills, transformed into cast iron immortals. And the greatest wish of this cast iron immortal in his life is to use the same method as the first male and the third woman to rebuild an army in China that is only loyal to their sect, return to their homeland, and overthrow the rule of the first male and the second woman, but unfortunately, they have also been completely banned on this eastern continent, which is the main reason why there is a city of Kuhan, the existence of heaven and earth, and the existence of a house house. ”
Qian Xiuye still didn't believe it: "It's impossible, since the Cast Iron Immortal is lying, why do you want to leave these truths?" ”
Xingshu frowned: "He left these truths, nothing more than to be able to tell future generations one day that the king and queen of the year were liars, and he used to expose the past lies to create a new lie, it's as simple as that, who knows that this lie has been fermenting for thousands of years, and finally became the so-called Qimen, which does not exist at all, and has also become a false force chased by your Zhangrong chasers." ”
Ma Fei got up and said: "Manichaeism plays a pathetic role in this matter, A, B and C all use the power of religion, and they all know the horror of religious power, and after achieving their goals, they all try to completely eliminate it, and in the end you are still in the dark and don't want to believe it?" It is also believed that those so-called miracles are real. Qian Xiuye, you open your eyes wide, you have spent your whole life killing so many people, and what you want to find is just a lie set together one after another! ”
After Qian Xiuye listened to Ma Fei's words, he began to laugh, arrogantly.
After laughing, Qian Xiuye shouted: "Listen, don't lie to yourself anymore, the miracle is real, you just want to possess!" But no matter what, there is no way to deny the fact that the miracle was found by my money cultivation! The owner is me! Even if I die one day! Someone will resurrect me in that iron palace in order to get the true secret of the miracle! I'm not going to die! I! Be! No! Yes! Die! Target! ”
Qian Xiuye, who had entered a state of madness, was dragged away by two policemen, and even though the cell door opposite was closed, Xingshu and Ma Fei could still hear his shouts.
After the shouting died down completely, Muffy sighed, "You're right, you can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep." ”
Xingshu nodded: "I have told a lie a thousand times, I believe it, Qian Xiuye is like this, he has set up a lifelong game and played a lifetime of deception, but he didn't expect that from the beginning, the first person to be deceived was himself." ”
Qian Xiuye, who returned to the room, waited for the prison guards to take away his handcuffs and leg irons, leave and close the door, his rampant smile finally disappeared from his face.
A sour sensation welled up in his throat and rushed straight into his face, but he held back, dragging his heavy feet towards the corner, sitting down slowly, curling up, trying to shove himself straight into the gap in the corner where only dust could get in.
Gradually, the sourness turned into a force, which continued to pound inside him, and finally forced him to open his mouth and scream, and then he covered his face and fell to his knees and began to cry bitterly.
……
A month later, in the antique city, a new pawnshop of torture was opened, and Lian Jiuqi, Torture, Ma Fei and Tian Lianfeng stood there, looking at the brand-new "Yongan pawnshop" plaque, and raised the wine glass in their hands.
Lian Jiuqi said with a smile: "You took the name Yongan Pawnshop to commemorate Xing Renju, right?" ”
Xingshu shook his head: "Yes, it's for commemoration, but why should people commemorate?" It's nothing more than a reminder not to repeat the mistakes of the past in certain things. ”
Tian Lianfeng sighed: "I didn't expect Qimen to be a big lie, but to be honest, I still admire Renju, he did so many things for a lie, and took his own life, if it were me, I would definitely give it up." ”
Ma Fei said: "Xing Renju is also a poor person who has been kept in the dark, in fact, the most sober is Zhang Molu, only he has seen through the essence of the matter, and he has not changed from beginning to end." ”
The torture technique added: "And my master, in fact, the master did not really delve into the truth of the Qimen, but he used his own life experience to warn himself and the people around him that the reason why some things become secrets is because of the terrible unknown. ”
Lian Jiuqi clapped his hands: "Okay, it's good to open today, let's finish eating, clean up well, it's time to do business seriously, and the rest of our lives will point to this pawnshop!" ”
Everyone laughed, and when they were about to walk into the store, Fu Mingwei suddenly walked out from the corner.
After everyone saw Fu Mingwei, they were all a little surprised, and the torture technique stepped forward and said, "Officer Fu, I didn't expect you to come too, come, go in and have a drink." ”
Fu Mingwei shook his head and said solemnly: "Criminal art, I was entrusted by someone to invite you, Miss Ma Fei, and Mr. Lian Jiuqi to a place." ”
The torture technique immediately said: "Officer Fu, I have already said it, I ......"
Fu Mingwei raised his hand to interrupt him: "Torture, don't shirk, I'm not trying to force you to do anything, I'm just carrying out orders." ”
Lian Jiuqi asked: "Officer Fu, we are all friends, do you have something to say?" Is there any trouble in the Qian Xiuye case? ”
Fu Mingwei shook his head: "The car is waiting outside, and when you get to the place, you will know." ”
Lian Jiuqi, Ma Fei and Xingshu glanced at each other, and when Xingshu saw Fu Mingwei's appearance, he knew that he was serious, so he had to turn around and say, "Lianfeng, please look at the shop." ”
After speaking, the torture said: "Officer Fu, let's go!" ”
Xingshu and the others got into the business car with all black glass, and after getting into the car, they found that the back of the car they were sitting in was completely separated from the cab, not only could they not see the inside of the car from the outside, but they could not see the outside from the inside of the car, and they couldn't even tell the difference between day and night.
Lian Jiuqi was a little uneasy and asked, "Officer Fu, where are you going to take us?" ”
Fu Mingwei, who was sitting with his back against the cab, shook his head slightly: "To be honest, I don't know." ”
Ma Fei was a little nervous, shook the hand that shook the torture technique, and the torture technique asked, "What do you mean?" It's not ......"
"Don't think about it!" Fu Mingwei shook his head and said, "It's just for secrecy, and if you come, you will be safe." ”
The car drove for four hours, and finally stopped when everyone was drowsy.
When the door was opened, the torturer found that the car had driven into a huge warehouse, which was pitch black, and the only thing that could be seen was two young men in black suits who looked polite.
However, the torturers and the others still judged from the posture of the two people and their eyes that they were soldiers.
Waiting for the four of them to get out of the car, the business car drove away backwards, and soon disappeared into the darkness, and the torturer didn't know how the driver could see his surroundings clearly without light.
"What is this place?" Torture looked around and asked.
Fu Mingwei shook his head, and everyone had to look at the two soldiers in black suits, but the two just stood there, without saying a word, like two statues.
Suddenly, a dozen meters away from them, several spotlights at the top turned on, illuminating the iron palace below, and at the same time, the eight armed men who had been standing on the four sides of the iron palace with loaded guns and ammunition also ran towards the darkness directly in front of them, and soon disappeared.
"What?" Maffei frowned and watched, but she also knew that this was a high-level security measure.
Xingshu, Ma Fei, Lian Jiuqi, and Fu Mingwei walked towards the Iron Palace, and Xingshu asked as they walked, "Why is the Iron Palace here?" ”
Fu Mingwei shook his head: "I don't know, in fact, I am also a guest." ”
"From today onwards, you will be the master!" A voice sounded from the darkness, and everyone turned their heads to look into the darkness on the right, only to see a man in a black trench coat with a flat head but missing an arm standing there.
The man looked to be less than forty years old, and there was an aura of mystery all over his body, as if he was from another world.
"Who are you?" Fu Mingwei asked, and the man walked towards the Iron Palace, standing in front of the gate, with his back to them.
"It's amazing that people thousands of years ago were able to make such a thing, don't you want to know how the ancients made it?" The man stood there, tilted his head slightly, and said, "In modern times, we call the method of breaking superstition science, but in ancient times, we regarded superstition as the science of that time, that is, ancient science in the broad sense. ”
After saying that, the man turned around and walked over to the torture and the others, and at the same time, Mo Dusk Bridge, who was also dressed in a suit, walked out of his left side.
Mo Duqiao looked at the torture and the others helplessly, but didn't say anything.
"From today onwards, Mo Duqiao will be my assistant, and at the same time, he will enter the prison term." The man stretched out his hand towards the torture technique, "By the way, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Zhan Tianya, and I am the current minister of the Ministry of Ancient Science of China, and I have been paying attention to you!" ”
After Zhan Tianya finished speaking, a smile finally appeared on his face.
