Chapter 268 [Waiting for a Response] (II)
Luo Lie said: "Bai Yunfei should want us to help him do something, but I never promised him." ”
"What's the matter?"
Luo Lie said: "I didn't ask, but I suspect it should be related to Mu Sanshou, and he gave me five days to think about it." ”
Ye Qinghong said: "You are calm, if you don't agree to him, will he join forces with Ren Tianjun to deal with us?"
Luo Lie laughed, talking to a smart woman like Ye Qinghong would save a lot of effort.
Ye Qinghong said: "Are you ready to refuse?"
Luo Lie shook his head.
Ye Qinghong said: "It seems that you are ready to agree." She felt warm in her heart, she realized that the reason why Luo Lie was ready to agree to cooperate with Bai Yunfei should be for her own safety, her beautiful eyes stared at Luo Lie, but she saw his breezy expression, which made Ye Qinghong have a suspicion of self-inflicted affection.
Luo Lie said: "If Mu Sanshou really left some great secrets, this secret is related to you nine times out of ten, and it is better for us to do it ourselves and control the initiative in our hands as much as possible." ”
Ye Qinghong nodded, feeling ashamed in her heart, Luo Lie thought more deeply than herself.
Luo Lie said: "At least until the end of this mission, Bai Yunfei will ensure our safety, and he will provide us with everything we need, this is a good deal for us." ”
Ye Qinghong said: "Cooperating with people like Bai Yunfei is equivalent to seeking skin with the tiger, and it is not ruled out that he may hide his bow after the matter is completed." ”
Luo Lie smiled: "There is no need for him to hide. ”
Ye Qinghong's beautiful eyes lit up and said, "You're not afraid that he will kill people afterwards?"
Luo Lie said: "Bai Yunfei has gone through some ups and downs before, and now he has changed too much. ”
Ye Qinghong said: "The scheming is deeper and knows how to weigh the pros and cons." ”
Luo Lie said: "Prudence is both a good thing and a bad thing. ”
Ye Qinghong smiled and said, "You are always so thorough when you analyze others. ”
Tang Bao'er walked around and came back, and said in a fuss: "Qinghong, why did you collect so many antiquities?"
Ye Qinghong sighed a little helplessly and said, "It seems that you have walked around this yard." ”
Tang Bao'er said: "I just took a look in the backyard, there are tattered statues inside, could it be that you are starting to be interested in picking up rags?"
Ye Qinghong said: "The last time I went to Manchuria, I saw that there were a lot of antiquities that had been destroyed, and the common people did not know the precious value of these things. ”
Luo Lie said: "The people take food as the sky, the war is in chaos, and the people can't even fill their stomachs, who has the energy to take care of these?"
Ye Qinghong said: "The things that have been inherited by our ancestors for thousands of years have been so destroyed in our area, which makes our generation embarrassed, so I want to fund the purchase of some valuable cultural relics from the private sector and keep them as much as possible, which is also an immeasurable wealth for future generations." ”
Luo Lie had a feeling of getting to know Ye Qinghong again, he also had such thoughts, especially when he thought of the Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of China and plundering wealth, he was even more heartbroken, there are always people to do some things, although Ye Qinghong is a mixed-race child, but after all, she also has Chinese blood in her blood, Ye Qinghong can still have such an awareness, and she is a little embarrassed compared to her.
Tang Bao'er rolled her eyes and said: "It is said that gold in troubled times, collected in prosperous times, but sometimes in the end of war, sooner or later it will usher in the prosperous era, and when it comes to the peaceful and prosperous times, these cultural relics will inevitably be less and less, and when the time comes, the value of these treasures collected by Qinghong can naturally increase countless times, and any one of them is priceless, and your business has to be studied hard by me." ”
Ye Qinghong was told by her that all the original noble sentiments became mercenary, and she feigned anger and said: "You Nizi is trying to hack me all day long, believe it or not......"
Tang Bao'er raised her hand and begged for mercy: "It's my fault, it's my fault, I shouldn't slander your Miss Ye's compassionate heart, let alone doubt your Miss Ye's noble sentiments." I'll jump into the lake by myself later. ”
Ye Qinghong and Luo Lie laughed at the same time when they heard her say this.
Tang Baoer said: "Seriously, opening a British Museum that belongs to us Chinese sounds like a very meaningful thing, Qinghong, count me in." ”
Ye Qinghong said: "As for your virtue of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, I don't dare to bother you, Miss Tang, but if you really have the heart, please ask Uncle Tang to help contact some authoritative scholars to give advice to the museum." ”
Tang Bao'er nodded and said, "Cheng, I'll trick my dad first." ”
Ye Qinghong said: "If Mr. Tang is willing to come, I will ask him to be the honorary director of the museum." ”
Luo Lie began to realize that he had been too depressed during this time, compared to Ye Qinghong, he was not living actively, he was even evading the mission left by his parents, he began to reconsider the legend of Jiuding, including his father, those from the future, should not fully understand the true meaning of Jiuding.
Since leaving Ganbian, Luo Lie didn't even dare to recall what happened in the tomb of the Xixia king, but now that he regained his memory, he found that there were too many things to think about and fear, did the powerful spiritual power of the high priest of Haori and Princess Longyu come from their talent or from the cultivation they acquired? Or was they originally a different life group from ordinary people, the Yongzhou Ding that was buried under the yellow sand, what role did it play in this dusty grievance?
What is the relationship between the Yushen Monument and the Jiuding? What is the significance of the inscription on the Yushen Monument that disappeared due to a volcanic eruption? Is it just a song of praise for Dayu? In the future era, why do the people represented by their parents have hidden worries about the coming of the end of Jiuding, and is the Jiuding buried deep underground really a tool to connect here with another planet in the depths of the universe?
Luo Lie searched hard for his own memories, and gradually pieced together everything that had been broken before, and what was reassembled was not only the memories but also the deep scars in his heart, the old wounds had not healed, and the new wounds had been added, and they were still dripping with blood.
Sitting alone on the cold bench of the chapel, the moonlight shines through the stained glass window, and the psychedelic and soft light is sprinkled at his feet, Luo Lie looks at the light motionlessly, the smoke in his hand that has not yet been extinguished makes the light chaotic, and thus outlines the outline of light and shadow, in Luo Lie's eyes, this light seems to be a rainbow in the dark night.
His fingers moved, the cigarette ash fell to the ground leisurely, the cigarette butt that had not been extinguished was like a red star, and the cold heart felt a trace of warmth because of this red, Luo Lie took a puff of cigarette and spit out a cloud of smoke, and the rising smoke drifted along the trajectory of the moonlight towards the stained glass window.
Luo Lie raised his head and looked at the statue of Jesus in front of him, his memory was swallowed up by the raging fire.
No matter how long the night is, but the light will come after all, the seed of wisdom planted by his father for him has taken root in his memory, and soon Shenzhou is about to usher in an unprecedented change, this sleeping lion is about to slowly wake up, and he should be able to witness this heart-wrenching history.
He has predicted history, Luo Lie doesn't know whether he belongs here or in the future, if his parents don't return to this era, then he may be born in the future, but even so, he will also face an unprecedented and severe crisis in the future, and even related to the life and death of human beings.
After returning from Ganbian, Luo Lie once felt that he was an outcast of history, but now he gradually changed his mind, maybe he was born for the mission, in order to save the fate of mankind, the history that has happened, the history that is happening He can't change, but he still has the opportunity to change the future and change the fate of mankind.
Luo Lie sat like this all night, until the sun shined through the glass window, until the chapel was lit up, he did not feel the slightest tiredness, he stood up, picked up the cigarette butts all over the floor, opened the door of the church, and let the morning breeze send fresh air here, let the sun bathe his whole body.
When he opened the door of the church, Luo Lie found a person standing outside the door, black robe and silver cross, silver-gray curly hair, gray-blue eyes sunken into the eye sockets, this is a Western priest in his fifties, a pair of dusty old leather shoes prove that he has traveled a long distance before, carrying a brown suitcase in his hand, the suitcase is very large, the corners are worn in many places, the skin color is also mottled, full of traces of time, and his person is the same.
Luo Lie was extremely surprised when he saw his expression, which was rarely such a thing for Luo Lie, who had always been calm.
The priest nodded to Luo Lie, a smile on his lips: "Luo!"
Luo Lie clenched his fists, his eyes burning with flames, and then he turned and walked into the chapel and slammed the door shut.
The smile on the priest's face disappeared as the church door closed, but he still did not choose to leave, went to the door of the chapel, and put down the suitcase: "I know you hate me, I have been living in pain all these years......
There was a roar from Luo Hunt in the church: "Get out! Get out of here before I kill you!" He pressed his back against the door, his tall body twitching from pain, his clenched fists trying to control his emotions, he felt that he was on the verge of exploding, and he felt the urge to open the door and rush out to break the other party's neck.
The priest said, "Luo, Alice is my daughter...... I'm better than ......."
"Shut up!" Luo Lie yelled, he closed his eyes tightly, tears flowed down his already distorted face, he wanted to kill the other party, but he had promised, and a beautiful white back appeared in his mind, she ran among the flowers, leaving a string of laughter: "Luo, come and chase me......"
The sea of flowers in her mind burned, and the relentless flames engulfed her delicate body.
"Luo ...... Promise me...... Don't blame my daddy......"
