262 The fate of the Eye of Heaven
readx;? Kyle Lowry, that's the name of a middle-aged man. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Twenty years ago, the name symbolized the richest and youngest gem merchant in the imperial capital. But now, there is no trace of the high-spirited twenty years ago in him, and some are just decadent and desperate, living like a walking corpse.
It all stems from the woman lying in the crystal coffin, the previous Messiah Lucia, the eye of heaven.
"Lucia is a very kind, very kind woman. ”
After a long cry as he hugged the crystal coffin, it took Kyle a while to calm himself down. But he wasn't completely calm, he sat cross-legged on the floor, reminiscing with Ian about the past and turning his gaze to Lucia.
"The first time I met her, it was at a drinking party. I had made a lot of money with gems, and I had a good relationship with a young master of a hunter's family, and he introduced me to the party, well, that was the first time I saw her. You should be able to understand the amazement of seeing her for the first time. ”
Ian didn't say anything, his throat hoarse as if it were on fire.
"And then we met, and it was actually quite dramatic, and she said that she noticed me that day because I was wearing a beautiful diamond necklace around my neck. Kyle pulled out a necklace from his bosom, the diamonds on the necklace had not been cleaned in a long time, and there was dirt on it. But even so, under the faint light of the sapphire crystal, the diamonds still reflected the brilliant light.
"The plot of a very little girl, isn't it?" Kyle smiled reluctantly, "With her status, who would have thought she would actually like pearls." But then I thought about it, and because of her status, no one would want to pursue her, so no one would give her diamonds. ”
"She likes you?" asked Ian.
"Perhaps, she was just an adult at that time, and maybe she didn't know what liking was. Kyle said, "She's just interested in me, and according to her, she's never seen anyone with gems all over her body." Well, don't laugh, I was just making a fortune at that time, and I was kind of a nouveau riche, so I wanted to show off all the good things. ”
"In the eyes of those real aristocrats, I am a stupid and brainless nouveau riche, but in her eyes, I am a glowing and interesting person. In fact, before I met her, I was really a self-righteous person, thinking that love was something that was solved with gold coins. Because I could put on crystal slippers for every girl who wanted to be a princess, but after meeting her, I knew I was wrong. Kyle said softly, tears welling up in his eyes, "As long as you really like someone, in your heart, even if you don't wear crystal slippers, you are a princess." ”
Kyle's words reminded Ian of the Messiah. Yes, when he fell in love with the Messiah, the Messiah did not have a crystal slipper, and at that time she was still a little girl who had almost lost everything. I want to find my brother and I want to get my help. But she won't beg anyone, she will only look at Ian with stubborn eyes, and then go on the road alone.
Perhaps it was at that time that Ian fell in love with the Messiah.
The old man of more than 40 years was in tears and embarrassed in his memories.
"Don't reminisce. Ian whispered, "Memories are a painful thing. ”
"I've been suffering for twenty years, how about doing it again?"
"Why don't you go and find another one?"
"Will you go?"
Ian froze, then shook his head slowly. He didn't think anyone could take the Messiah's place in his heart.
"From the moment you came in, I knew the answer, you were just like me. Kyle wiped tears from his eyes and said, "When you meet the best, you can't sleep for anything else." Memories alone can't make me fit anyone else. ”
"Why don't you do something about it, watch her go?"
"I've done everything, but I can't do anything. Kyle looked at Ian, "Over the years, no Messiah has managed to live to be twenty-five years old. No, it shouldn't be said, they weren't dead. ”
"And not dead?"
"Well, not dead, but more cruel than death. Kyle clenched his fists tightly, the memory made him miserable, "The Eye of Heaven has stolen the power of the heavens, how can a mortal's body withstand the power of the heavens." Therefore, at the age of twenty, the eyesight of the past generations will slowly deteriorate, and the body will slowly weaken. Eventually, they will close their eyes and fall asleep forever after their whole body is weak. ”
"Sleeping?"
"Well, it's like falling asleep. Kyle said, "My heart was still beating and breathing, but I couldn't wake up again." ”
Ian was silent. This is indeed more terrible than death, which means liberation, but eternal slumber means eternal loneliness. Is this the punishment of the Eye of Heaven from heaven? and why should it be both strength and punishment?
The thought that the Messiah would be like this in a few years ago made Ian's heart ache like a knife.
No, something must be done!
Something can be done!
How could he watch the Messiah fall asleep forever?!
Ian slowly stood up, and Kyle whispered as if he had guessed what Ian was thinking, "Over the past hundred years, many, many people like you and me have tried to do something, but in the end they all failed. Your enemy and I are no one else, but a more terrifying one than the dragons, the Heavens. ”
A more terrifying enemy than the dragons.
Ian knew what that meant. Prior to this, Ian's enemies were also strong, the Dragon King Naga, the Dragon King of the Sea, Naltimis, and the Dragon Emperor Mussolini. Although these enemies are powerful, they are all real, tangible, and powerful. But who knows what God is, who knows where it is, and who knows what power it has.
Ignorance is the most terrifying.
But even so, Ian couldn't give up.
"Thank you for bringing me here. "I'm sorry for my rudeness, and thank you for your advice." ”
"But I know you're not going to give up, are you?" Kyle said with a wry smile, "even if your opponent is the Heavens?"
"Even if my opponent is from above. ”
The same sentence, an interrogative sentence, a declarative sentence. The meaning is completely different.
Kyle was silent, and he looked at Ian as if he was looking at himself twenty years ago. Twenty years ago, I didn't get hit by myself, and I think I can solve everything. To this, Kyle can only say:
"Good luck. ”
