Chapter 269: A New Life as a Human

Turning back suddenly, Fa Ertong, who had been freed from the pressure of the dead country, suddenly remembered what she had talked to Shang Luo at the beginning.

"Which one?"

"That's what I said before! My father's heart is in your hands! ”

"yes, I said it at the beginning. As I said, Ming people don't do dark things, and I've made it clear to you in 1510. You don't believe it at first. ”

"Father! It's true! You're not kidding me! ”

Shang Luo gave a clear answer again: "No. ”

Bang bang, she rushed back in a few steps and knocked Shang Luo down on the sofa: "Give back my father's heart!" That's not what we agreed on! It's me who broke the contract, not him! Give my father's heart back! ”

"Eh, calm down, don't hit people when you ask questions. Have you forgotten the consequences of your last 'rage'? ”

"I don't care! Give my father's heart back! His practice, his vision, and the mental strength of countless people are all on that golden pill! You can't hand it over just because it's just a Faetong! Father, what the hell was he thinking! Why should he promise you! ”

"In short"

"Anyway, only one of the two of us can get out of this door today!"

"Then we'll see you in the next life!" Shang Luo turned over and grabbed Phaethon's throat, and used the momentum to smash her into the sofa. The upholstery of the sofa was compressed to the limit, and the pocket springs inside cracked one by one, and Phaethon was pressed into it:

"I'm telling you, you can't beat me now. Because I am a celestial, and you are only a mortal. There is a limit to my patience! If you don't calm down now, you really have to be sorry for your father! ”

β€œ.” Phaethon was choked by the throat, and his whole face turned red.

"Got it! Blink if you understand! ”

She used to blink, but now she doesn't blink at all. She stared at Shang Luo deadly, and blood burst out.

It's just that the mortal Faetong quickly realized the difficulty of mortals - if a person is pinched, he will die. If you don't blink, you cry.

Tears flowed, but not just because of physical discomfort. The few tears left behind seemed to open the valve:

"Wow!!!!!"

Tears flowed out like a flood. Phaethon wept.

[Tsk, she cried.] 】

"Who called her temper as stubborn as a donkey. I received a gift from his father, so I had to educate his daughter for him. ”

Like the first cry of a newborn, this is the first cry of Phaethon as a mortal. Curled up in the couch, she cried like a fountain: "Dad. I'm sorry for you! ”

The first thing she thought of was to be sorry for her father. Her and Shang Luo's accounts have been settled, but her and her father's accounts have been settled.

Like a baby in swaddling clothes, she curled up on the couch, unable to cry enough.

"Ugh." Shang Luo sighed. He picked up the kettle and poured a cup of tea for Phaethon. When she is tired of crying, this cup of tea can help her moisten her throat.

After a long time, the crying stopped abruptly.

She sat up slowly and saw the hot tea.

After taking a sip, she also took the tissue that Shang Luo threw over and wiped the tears on her face with the tissue.

"Why don't you keep crying?"

"I just realized that no more crying would have my father come to my aid. He's only going to help me get here. ”

"Not really, your father seems to have retained a considerable degree of divine power."

"It didn't work. That golden pill is the source of his strength. He's now. It's like a fish that has left the water, and has to carry heavy loads over mountains and mountains. He won't last long. The lighthouse project is not over yet, and he will sacrifice himself into it. ”

"But I can't help it. That force has helped me a lot, and now we both have a part of our future projected into the 'infinite universe in the shell'. My duty is also very important, the object you call 'Jindan', it is mine, but it is not only mine. I also carry the wishes of countless people, and I can't just take them off. ”

"I know, I know. That." She looked at Shang Luo: "Is it possible that at some point in the future, you can return it to my father?" ”

"You know, that's not yet, it's mine now. But if I don't need it anymore in the future, I can make a deal with you with itβ€”yes, only a deal, because I don't have the need to give it to you for nothing. Don't you love trading? Then come and trade. What chips do you have right now? ”

"I," she said, looking at the teacup. Her face was reflected in the cup, as well as her hair. The demigods' blonde hair, like the sun of the Mediterranean, has vanished along with the power itself. To be precise, it was transferred to Shang Luo's head. With divine power as the furnace, Shang Luo gained the power of celestial beings, as well as the accompanying Huafa (and red pupils).

She herself, only the hair of an ordinary Roman remains. Black, but slightly curly, and a little messy.

She had nothing left.

"Now I. No. But in the future I will have it. I'll try to get the chips and I'll be sure to trade with you at the same price. ”

"It's like human talk. I think your father would be happy to see you the way you are. Say goodbye to the demigod life, take a good look at the world with your own eyes, and feel her again with your hands. If you feel sorry for your father, pay it back with your actions. I can't help you pay it back, but I can give you a chance to pay it back. Got it? Blink when you understand. ”

Phaethon blinked.

"Drink tea and moisten your throat."

Faethon drank tea.

"Good. The first lesson you have to learn is – don't lose your temper! Gods or demigods, mortals or mortals, this world has its own rules that will not be shaken by your anger. What doesn't belong to you, you can't get it by losing your temper. If you want to get it with your own hands: whether you can get it with hard work, or grab it back by force, in short, you give me a good calm, don't care about anything when the blood comes up. You can not care about yourself, and others care about you, you know? So it's not for yourself, it's for your father. Blink when you understand. ”

Phaethon blinked.

"Then I'll leave you at that. Daozu sent you to me, I'll give you this opportunity, I just don't have enough manpower here. I'll just assume that you want to come to work: as an employee, you can ask to be an employee. Do you have any requirements now? ”

"I'm hungry." After crying, she was indeed hungry.

"There's a mail-order book in the mailbox outside the door, and there should be a takeout order on it."

β€œ.”

"What are you looking at me for? Go get it! At the door, turn left when you go out, mailbox. I'll invite you to dinner, can't you go get a menu? ”

"Oooh!! I'm going, I'm going. ”
