Chapter 581: The Past
At night, the purple twin moons hang high in the starry sky, revealing a hazy and soft glow in the clouds.
In the quiet courtyard below, a thin mist wafted from a pot on a small stove, and next to the small stove was a low table with a set of delicate utensils placed on the small bamboo table.
A pair of jade-colored slender hands skillfully poured the water from the pot into the teapot and small cup on the table, washed it again, poured it into the small bamboo platform with the function of absorbing water, and disappeared in an instant.
Dozens of pale cyan dried leaves were put into a small purple teapot, washed with boiling water, filtered and added water again, the leaves were soaked, and the air began to fill with a faint fragrance.
Jade Hand poured the tea from the small teapot into the small purple cup with the cup holder in front of Chen Rui, and poured another cup for himself.
Chen Rui picked up the cup, looked at the amber tea, sniffed it pleasantly, showed a look of enjoyment, picked up the teacup, smiled slightly at the veiled face opposite, took a sip, felt the unique fragrance penetrate the tongue into the heart, and nodded approvingly: "Good tea." ”
This praise made the beautiful blue eyes of the woman opposite bend slightly, obviously very happy.
When he was about to finish drinking, the woman poured him another cup, which was about two-thirds of the cup, which was exactly in line with what he said, "light tea is full of wine".
Although Chen Rui was a tea ceremony lover in his previous life, due to the limited conditions, he didn't know much, just some skins. However, after teaching Isabella, whether it is the selection of materials, the use of water and other steps, it is meticulously completed. That movement is natural and skillful, and it can't be achieved if you don't put in the effort and practice hard.
Chen Rui suddenly felt moved, such intentions were completely for him.
Except for that compliment, the two did not speak again, just quietly sipping tea.
"Lord Agulie, don't you even want to say anything to me?" a charming female voice finally sounded, "even if it's just a few words of blame?"
When Chen Rui heard this title, he smiled bitterly: "How dare I blame you." This time your Jihua has been very successful, and under the triple effect of situation, force and profit, Xia has truly taken control of the situation. ”
Catherine's plan is a staple and leaves Thea in a dilemma. And Isabella's solution is to grab time, just like Shia used lightning to ascend the throne to break Catherine's pressure on the Dark Moon, before Catherine launches that jihua, clear the obstacles of the patriarchal family, and gain true control of the empire. As long as the Fallen Angel Empire truly achieves unity, then Catherine's fear will be greater, and the more she will dare not use troops against the Fallen Angel Empire.
The Yoneyama family's sake cellar was destroyed by Isabella. The guard John who provided Marlene's information to Drow was also guilty, and Alice and Marlene were naturally caught on purpose, especially Alice's eyes, and deliberately played a little trick to cover the purple eyes of the royal family, until Drow and Rosen took the Y. Yama family and the Pol family step by step into the trap.
The subsequent newspaper and television were Chen Rui's "inventions", and the television was Chen Rui long before the Obsidian crusade began. I have already started researching, the demon world is not the earth, and the knowledge required is naturally different. Magic is enough to replace things, Chen Rui just put forward the relevant idea, which attracted the attention of the three masters, especially the old man who was a quasi-grandmaster, who was full of praise for this idea. The demon world already has related props such as messengers, shadow stones, and phonographic stones, and you don't have to start from scratch, and under the study of the masters with great interest, "magic TV" is gradually beginning to take shape.
After repeated shiyan, the magic TV was finally successfully created, only due to the war waged by obsidian. So it has been put on hold. After Xia ascended the throne in the imperial capital lightning, the square and other places were renovated, and a large "magic TV" was erected, and the original jihua was used to deal with the senator family with economic warfare, but the arrival of the envoy of the Shadow Empire made this jihua be implemented in advance. A few days ago, Chen Rui did not participate in jihua. Instead, he was busy renovating the magic transmitter to receive signals from far away in the Dark Moon and broadcast live. ...,
The Goblet of Fire contest is a marketing ploy that has finally succeeded in making magic TV a hit, taking advantage of the "east wind" of the shortage of tickets.
Newspapers appeared in a hurry compared to television, and like television programs, the content currently published is quite limited, but this is only the beginning, and Sia is preparing to set up a media department dedicated to newspaper and television content.
Newspapers and television would bring huge benefits and could be a source of interest for Xia to further control the family, and more importantly, this powerful liliang of official opinion would be a powerful tool for consolidating the emperor's rule. In the second issue of the newspaper alone, the oath of Sia and the decree of the government of the People's Republic of China were already known to everyone in the shortest possible time, and there were no false rumors.
Isabella gracefully picked up the teacup and took a sip under the veil: "I thought someone would blame me for dragging his innocent and lovely little lover into this turbid whirlpool." ”
"I just think of Alice as a sister," Chen Rui shook his head, "only this time......"
"Distressed?" Isabella put down her teacup, "You have to figure out two things, first, she's the princess of the Empire, and second, she's the most suitable lord for Darkmoon's realm, not Athena." ”
Chen Rui frowned slightly: "Don't you think it's too early for Alice?"
"Do you want to say that your lovely sister is only fourteen years old?" Isabella smiled, "Do you know what I was doing when I was fourteen?"
"Killing the Quartet?" Chen Rui scratched his head.
"You're wrong, when I was fourteen years old, I didn't understand anything but to be spoiled in front of my father, to be sexually aggressive to my brother, and to bully my half-sister. Despite the patriarchal habits of the Baliers, my father and brother were very fond of me, and they would carry everything and protect me from danger. Under their care, a willful, arrogant, stupid, and damned girl slowly grew up. ”
Isabella smiled, poured her tea again, and took a sip, "Any idea what happened next?"
Chen Rui seemed to anticipate what she was going to say, and his mood suddenly became heavy.
Isabella had already said to herself: "This girl met a man from the human shijie, and soon fell into the trap of sweet words, for the sake of this man, she did not hesitate to turn against her father and brother who loved her, turned against her twin sister, and even stole the most important artifact of the family and handed it over to this man." After this man got the artifact, he immediately revealed his true colors. Without hesitation, he abandoned her and disappeared. The teenage girl is homeless and wandering, and Zuihou is found by her brother. Bring back the family. However, when she returned to her family, the family was under a massive attack by the enemy royal family, and due to the loss of the Wind Shadow Boots, the royal family of Baryl was almost wiped out in this battle, and even the father and mother who loved the girl the most were killed in the battle. The elder brother Tesstein desperately led the girl out of the encirclement, and he himself suffered a serious injury that will be difficult to heal for life, even more than a hundred years later. Tortured to death by the enemy's soul shackles......"
The tea in Isabella's cup had already overflowed from trembling, and her face was still smiling: "The most unworthy people are dead, and the most damned people are still alive, and the demon god is really blind." ”
That smile made Chen Rui's heart ache and he stood up.
"From that moment on, there was only one thing left in my life, hate. Compared to the hatred I hated those people, the one I hated the most was the one who killed my parents. Kill the elder brother, kill the maiden of the people. I was thinking about how to kill these enemies all the time, and for this reason I did not hesitate to practice between life and death. Do not hesitate to join the blood ...... where the enemy is Until it became what it is now. ”...,
Chen Rui finally understood what happened to Isabella back then, and finally understood that Weishenme could feel the loveless will to die in her.
The calmer the voice, the more painful the wound in my heart becomes.
Chen Rui came to her: "I've heard of me, Isabella, you've already died once." ”
"It's useless! it's not enough! it's not enough!" Isabella stood up suddenly, "For this kind of woman who harms others and herself, even if she dies a thousand or ten thousand times, it is not enough!"
This seemed to be a fuse, Isabella completely lost her usual composure and calmness, grabbed her hair tightly, and all the things that had been suppressed for years burst out in an instant. Screams and cries rang out in the courtyard, and the whole person completely collapsed.
Chen Rui wanted to come forward to comfort him several times, but was frantically resisted and even bitten, and Chen Rui, who was better at Zuihouliliang, finally hugged her tightly.
After a long time, the crying in the courtyard finally subsided.
There was silence for a while, and a hoarse voice sounded: "Chen Rui." Take me out of here, go to a place where there are only the two of us, stay with me for two months, I promise you, I will let go of all the past, be your woman with all your heart, and leave everything to you. ”
"Zuihou two months?" Chen Rui shuddered, and suddenly realized something keenly.
Isabella gently broke free from his embrace and unbuttoned her blouse, revealing the white peaks covered in her bra. The lace-edged sexy lingerie could barely restrain the two plump lumps of abundance, and the protruding buds loomed at the ends, although they did not see the whole area, they gave people a strong temptation.
The focus of Chen Rui's gaze fell on the left breast she was pointing at, and near the area of her heart, there was a strange texture, which was in the shape of a flower, which seemed to be some kind of mark.
"This is what the person left me back then, it will absorb the life force of the host, and it will have seizures every once in a while, and it will be painful. Two hundred years later, I have been unable to erase this mark by all means, even if I came back from the dead last time, the mark is still there, and now it ...... There are still two months left for Zuihou. ”
Chen Rui was shocked: "Didn't you say it earlier?"
Isabella looked at him tenderly and shook her head slightly: "It's useless, I've consulted countless materials over the years, this is the most stubborn and terrifying spell mark of the Temple of Light, called the Seal of Light Annihilation, even Lola can't eliminate it." There are only two ways to do it, but neither of them can be done. ”
As soon as Chen Rui heard that there was a way, he ignited hope again: "What way?
"The first method is to kill the caster, the second method is to combine magic with medicine, and the most important herb is the Sherdaree flower. ”
Chen Rui's heart suddenly cooled, that man must have been in the human shijie at the beginning, and the Xuedalai flower was a sacred flower unique to the Bright Holy Mountain, no matter which method it was, he had to go to the human shijie.
