Chapter 416: The Price of Desire

Bob nodded with great satisfaction and said, "It's so beautiful, I'm very satisfied now, let's live happily and quietly here in the future." ”

But Mary was still not satisfied, "How can it be? I still have to think again. ”

With that, she glanced proudly at William, and walked away with the sound of da-da, followed by a row of servants.

Strange words. Aren't they the owners of this palace? Or is there something deeper? William on the side thought to himself as he listened to the translation of the magic mirror.

Bob next to him was a little embarrassed, and he said to William embarrassedly, "Will, will you stay here for one night tonight?" ”

"Good!" William nodded neatly and agreed, and replied to Bob with the words of the Magic Mirror Sect.

A happy smile suddenly appeared on Bob's face, and he arranged for a servant to take William to the guest room.

In the ornate guest bedroom, William sat cross-legged on a velvet quilt and meditated, silently absorbing the energy particles of this fairy tale world, combining them with his own spiritual power and transforming them into his own magic.

Originally, in the Black Domain, William, who had lost most of his magic power because of the Curse of Fate spell, was recovering his magic bit by bit.

Time ticks by.

Early the next morning, before dawn, the voice of the magic mirror suddenly sounded in William's head, "Master, master, there is a situation with the Bob couple you want me to monitor!" ”

"What's the situation?" William finished his meditation and took out the magic mirror from his bosom, and gently stroked it with his hand, and the mirror lit up, like ripples on the surface of the water, and the scene in Bob's bedroom emerged.

Bob's wife, Mary, woke up alone, wearing a smooth pajamas made of silk and a mean face, and walked to the large bedroom window, and with a gentle push, the window opened, and the fragrance blew in with a gentle wind.

Mary looked out the window and saw an endless field of golden rape flowers, a scene of life that fascinated Mary.

A strong sense of possessiveness and ambition grew in her heart, "How can the owner of such a beautiful piece of land not be me?" ”

Desire pushed Mary so that she could not wait for a moment, and without pity for her sleeping husband, she woke him up roughly.

"What's wrong? It's not dawn yet, my dear, let me sleep a little longer! Bob said with sleepy eyes, sleepy and sleepy.

"No! Can't sleep anymore! Mary was very arrogant and domineering, "Hurry up! ”

Bob was helpless, rubbed his sleepy eyes helplessly, got up on the bed, made a bitter face, and said to his wife, "Honey, what do you want to do?" ”

"Bob, don't you think this field is beautiful?" Mary asked Bob, pointing to the view outside the window.

Bob casually looked out the window, the fields outside were beautiful, and he nodded, "It's beautiful." And then what? ”

"And then...... "Mary sneered, "don't you think it's an unforgivable sin to have such a beautiful field, and its owner is not ours?" ”

"You want that field? Well, there is quite a lot of property in the palace, and after dawn I will go to the owner of the field, and we will buy it! ”

"Idiot!" Mary couldn't help but scold Bob and said, "I don't just want this field, I want to be the king of the Kingdom of Lyon!" ”

"Are you crazy? We are not even aristocrats, how dare we be so bold and extravagant? Let's sleep, my dear, the days are much better now than they used to be! Bob looked at his wife in disbelief and couldn't help but persuade.

But Mary could not be persuaded by her own husband, and her desires had swelled without limit. She screamed, "I've been with you for so many years, I have nothing left, only more and more gray hair every day, all spent on you!" And now, you have the ability, and you can't even help me meet this little request! ”

"Honey, this is not a small request!" Bob was distressed and helpless.

"That's a small request for that one!"

"My dear, this is not a villa, a palace! This is the king of a country! How does it work? Bob tried to reason with his wife.

However, Bob was destined to be in vain, and she said bluntly, "How do you know if you don't try?" You try, maybe it can really do it, and in the future, our children will be born princes and princesses, born with noble blood, and don't have to be as poor as we were before, don't you want to? ”

Bob was a little moved, but more dissatisfied with his wife's request, and he continued to persuade, "But dear wife, we can't be so greedy and endless, why should we be kings?" We've gotten a lot of good stuff out of it, and if it goes on like this, I'm afraid it's going to get angry! ”

"You saved its life! Without you, it would have died a long time ago! It's only natural that you want more now! Go find it! Mary was willing to listen to Bob at the moment, she kept urging Bob to find the being, Bob faced his wife's entanglement, there was really no way, so he had to get up and get dressed, and walk slowly towards the beach.

Behind her, Mary had a smug smile on her face.

And William, who is in front of the magic mirror, finally knows which fairy tale he is involved in!

Although Mary and Bob have always referred to it as the being, and have not named it by name, the seaside, the fisherman, the villa that he said he had promised, and then the palace, and now he wants to be king, all point to a famous book in Grimm's Fairy Tales.

"The Fisherman and His Wife"!

The story begins with the story of a fisherman and his wife who live in a dilapidated hut and live in poverty by fishing, until one day the fisherman releases a talking flounder.

When the fisherman's wife heard about it, she asked the fisherman to find the flounder and let the flounder grant her wish again and again.

From a villa, to a palace, then to a queen of a country, then to the master of an empire, then to become a pope, and finally to control the sun and moon.

Halibut was angry at the fisherman's insatiable greed and took away everything he had given, and the fisherman and his wife lived in a dilapidated house.

When William came, it happened to be the time period when the fisherman's wife asked Flounder to make her queen.

It's just that when he first crossed over, he made a wish to the Kalachakra Hourglass to bring him to a place that could solve his real dilemma, and the Kalachakra Hourglass brought him here to make him make a wish to the flounder?

Will Flounder grant his wish? He hadn't saved the flounder, so how could he be qualified to make a deal with it?

No, there are loopholes in this fairy tale!

If this flounder is really so powerful that it can make a person easily become a king, emperor and pope, then how can it be caught by a fisherman?

Among them, there must be a hidden secret!
