Chapter 742: Alone Time at Night - Used to Discover Dark History
(Sure enough, it’s better to be at home - today I’m asking for *** as usual, and I’m also asking for subscriptions. Why did the subscriptions drop a little after the Chinese New Year?)
Perhaps he had accepted too many unbelievable things in one day, and on the second night after arriving in the God Realm, he suffered from insomnia.
I don’t know how time is calculated in the God Realm, but it should be around midnight in this world. The Obsidian Temple is already silent. Even the gods who control darkness are used to sleeping in the dark. This made me feel a little bit at first Contrary to common people's impressions, shouldn't the gods in charge of darkness begin to act in the darkness?
However, Bingtis's words, "Look how many midwives can still give birth to babies," smashed my doubts to bits.
Stay up in the middle of the night and go out for a walk? I don’t think this is appropriate. After all, I am a guest. It’s a bit unkind to bother Bingtis’s family without sleeping all night, and I highly doubt whether I can successfully find Bingtis without Mo leading the way. Even if he found the door, would he be able to wake up the old door that was snoring loudly before getting up early the next morning? So when he couldn't sleep and had nowhere to go, he walked freely. Arriving at the atrium of the temple.
The structure of this obsidian temple is somewhat similar to the word "well". Inside the outer wall, four palaces with overlapping beams and eaves form a cross pattern. Four bell towers are near the intersection of these cross palaces. Bingtis jokingly calls himself Lao Dad's design is "two horizontally and vertically", but the latter has always insisted that he is trying to embody a simple and balanced beauty - just like the fourth bell tower specially built for symmetry.
The atrium of the Obsidian Temple is a large open space surrounded by four palace buildings. It has been opened up into a huge garden. Of course, considering the brutal area of the Bingtis family, it can basically be regarded as a small forest. , I wandered aimlessly in this garden, wandering like a ghost among the shadowy plants in the middle of the night.
According to Bingtis, the name of this place is the Shadow Garden. The reason for this name is the plants in it: the plants here are mutated life forms under the power of the dark gods. They can only grow in the dark and in the sun. Instead, it will stop moving, just the opposite of normal plants. When I first heard about this, I was very puzzled. I asked Bingtis that these plants, which can only photosynthesize in the dark, would not be able to grow if they were cultivated in the open and exposed to the sun.
Bingtis answered me this way:
"Let's take advantage of the night, idiot!"
Why do you think I forgot that there is something called night in the world during the day?
The shadow garden in the middle of the night was silent. Only the breeze that came from nowhere gently blew through the surrounding flowers and plants, making a slight rustling sound. I walked along the stone path in the garden to the center of it, where a person was in silence. The large fountain suddenly appeared in front of him after bypassing a row of shrubs.
"What a luxurious back garden."
I sighed and strolled to the front of the fountain. What was very interesting was that there were three sculptures standing in the center: Bingtis's family of three. The showy atmosphere of the capitalist nouveau riche is clearly visible.
Standing in front of the spring, looking around aimlessly, a figure that looked a little thin unexpectedly appeared in front of him.
The girl with long hair shawl was standing less than ten meters away from her, looking at the gorgeous aurora floating in the sky. A side silhouette made her look ethereal as if she was blending into the night. The girl was wearing light pink fluttering pajamas. Her hair and clothes were slightly swaying in the night breeze. Occasionally, some hair reflected the beautiful aurora in the sky, and it seemed to be floating down from the black hair. Like a mysterious phosphorus fire.
The quiet and beautiful scene in front of me made me slow down my breathing, as if I was afraid that a gasp would break the quiet side of the other party that I finally saw. Until the other party took the initiative to speak, it was a deliberately dissatisfied tone, but the voice could not be concealed. The coquettish feeling inside: "Hey, Mu Mu, what are you thinking about?"
I was stunned, tried hard to suppress my original sigh, and nodded seriously: "Before I spoke, I looked like Sadako..."
Lin Banxian immediately changed from extremely still to extremely active. He turned around and took off in three steps. He jumped directly on top of me and gave me a smack on my shoulder.
...soulless! Give me back that quiet and elegant forest elf from before!
Lin Xue, who is usually very aggressive, of course also has that quiet and gentle side. Although it is very rare, I have seen it a few times. Occasionally, when she is alone, Lin Yatou, who is thinking, will reveal the appearance of a lady that truly suits her status. As the saying goes, rare things are precious, and it is not easy to see the fierce prophet girl finally behave like a girl. , I see that God is also forgivable.
"It's so late, why aren't you sleeping?"
I expertly pinned down the runaway young lady who was scratching and scratching my shoulders. I casually put my clothes on the shoulders of this silly girl who ran out to enjoy the air in only her pajamas. The other party's face suddenly turned red: "Stupid... idiot ! Don’t act so intimate all of a sudden! Don’t touch me without my consent!”
Tsk, the arrogant and shy person who doesn't mean what she means. I didn't know it before, but now I know exactly what this girl is thinking.
Although she looks carefree and fearless, Lin Xue is a pure person at heart, even more so: even when the two of us are alone, she will be startled by my sudden intimate behavior, although she will not immediately become violent. But a moment of harsh words is absolutely indispensable.
"You're not waiting for me to show up, are you?"
I glanced at Lin Xue and calmly stated my guess.
Thinking of the other person's prophetic ability, his unique way of caring for his lover, and his daily behavior and habits, I made this judgment, which should be inseparable.
Just as predicted before, Lin Xue immediately gave me a charming big eye roll: "Go on, it's a beautiful thought. Why am I waiting for an idiot in the middle of the night after eating so much?"
I knocked on the other party's head: "You also know that in the middle of the night, you are driving in the flower garden in your pajamas in the middle of the night. Do you think you are Qianqian? You know there is a plot at first glance?"
The eldest lady stuck out her tongue in this direction, and did not speak as acquiescence. Then she suddenly whispered: "Hey, are you feeling confused?"
"Why do you think so?"
"Suddenly I realized that I am not a human being - if this were in a normal plot, shouldn't you, as the person involved, respond to the call and turn dark?" Lin Xue looked at me seriously, her big crystal eyes reflecting the aurora in the sky, flashing one by one. Flash.
Although Lin Xue's words were still so solid, they really made me think: Yes, from today on, I am no longer a human being - or in other words, I am not a human being from the beginning. Today I just know the truth. This should be placed in the literary world. At this time, I should rush out with my hair disheveled and look up to the sky and scream "Why did the sky treat me?" Then if I can get a reincarnation of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder on the fantasy channel, I can continue it on the supernatural channel A jade bracelet with a white-bearded old man sealed on it is almost waiting for Sister Lin to fall from the sky on the romance channel. In the big-eyed world view, the landing cabin should appear at this time...
However, the above is all nonsense, and what Lin Xue guessed did not happen at all. It’s true that I couldn’t sleep a little, but the reason of “suddenly being excluded from the primate category” is not as big as the mercury lamps filling the room. Speaking of which, I don’t know if the little doll was for fun today. That’s crazy. What the hell are you doing up and down my bed in the middle of the night?
There were so many deceptive exclamations running through my heart at that moment. In the end, I just raised my hand and rubbed the hair of the girl next to me, and pulled her to sit down on the big stone next to the fountain.
Although she can see into the future, she cannot see into other people's thoughts. Lin Xue's ability makes her very powerful, but it also makes her very unaccustomed to facing situations that she cannot see through.
"I'm fine. Being unable to sleep has nothing to do with it."
"Really?" The eldest lady looked here suspiciously, tilting her head to the side to make herself cute, "I saw you wandering around the garden in the middle of the night without sleep, and you still said you were fine?"
"It's really okay. Although the truth I learned today is quite exciting, to be honest, apart from the chaos in my mind, I really don't feel anything else." Knowing that the other party was worried about my situation, I didn't take advantage of him. He took this opportunity to quarrel with Lin Xue, but told the truth.
The eldest lady supported the stone platform next to her with both hands and stared at the aurora belt in the sky. "Ha, I'm just worrying. The only thing worthy of praise is your stupid psychological quality: suddenly you are no longer a human being. You're still open-minded, I thought you cared about this issue."
"It's not that I don't care at all," I scratched my hair, "There is a problem that I still can't figure out: Father God said that I am a void creature, which is definitely true, and Bingtis said that void creatures are Gaia, which failed to evolve into the world, is a spiritual body. This should be correct, but... you also know that Shandora scanned me for a long time today, and she was a normal life from top to bottom. Body, material life, human soul, and organic molecules make up my body. I can eat and drink water to grow up... In addition to being able to transform into a void form without a face for a short time, I can't see any void creatures at all. Look like. Do you think any of them made a mistake? Is this the only void creature like me?"
How should I put it, I am not obsessed with what kind of life form I am. What I am really obsessed with is something that neither Father God nor Bingtis can explain: How did I, a void creature, become a human?
Faced with my somewhat self-talking sigh, Lin Xue did not answer directly. She just closed her eyes slightly, and a little white light leaked out from the gaps in her eyes, letting me know that the half-immortal was starting to do something.
No one has ever known what the world is like in Lin Xue's eyes, just like no one knows what kind of world view exists in Qian Qian's head. I can only watch curiously as the eldest lady next to me hums a messy ballad and whispers... She kept trying to find some truth for herself. After a few minutes, she opened her eyes again and told me some not-so-good news: "Don't talk to strangers tomorrow."
Me: "Eh?"
Girl, you did something wrong!
"And by the way, I don't understand your situation at all."
You shouldn’t say this by the way, don’t you know?
I rolled my eyes and ruffled the eldest lady's silky hair unceremoniously. The other party was kicking someone and arranging her hair while talking: "Why are you thinking so much? Father God didn't intend to explain it anyway, so it's not important." Things, or even he can't explain it - then let's not even think about it. Void is such a mysterious thing, doesn't it mean that anything related to void cannot be explained by common sense? Just think of yourself as void Just another abnormal life form——"
I can only accept this answer which is not an answer, but Lin Xue's poisonous tongue attribute has just begun: "Hey, you used to criticize others, but now you have truly separated yourself from the primates and formed a category of your own - —Everything in the multiverse may be a unique void creature. The wood belongs to the order Wood, family Wood, class Wood, and order Wood..."
I flicked the girl's head: "Did you order it wrong?"
"What the hell, you still check Baidu every time you talk?"
I chatted with Lin Xue for a while, but the content was full of jokes or making fun of each other. This has almost become the daily way of getting along with this girl, but it is such a "two-person world" that others can't understand. But it keeps us both entertained. She was still waiting here so late. She obviously noticed that I was a little upset, so she finally realized the healing properties that she should have as a girlfriend. Unfortunately, apart from all kinds of poisonous words, this clumsy young lady couldn't think of anyone else. A way to express one's feelings, but how can I put it, the eldest lady who is not arrogant is not a half-fairy.
"Hey, Mu Mu Mu, are there any words here?"
The two of us were fooling around for a while, and I almost forgot all those messy things. I was about to go back to sleep and check to see if the mercury lamp had calmed down. However, Lin Xue suddenly noticed something and grabbed my arm and pointed at the person next to me. Shizhu shouted.
This fountain is surrounded by a circle of stone pillars several meters high. At the top of the stone pillars are nozzles for sprinkling water into the fountain and sculptures of dark angels. This kind of thing is not a rare thing in the buildings of the Dark Gods, and Lin Xue pointed it out to me. Yes, but there are lines of text on a certain pillar that are clearly carved by hand.
We walked over curiously, and Lin Xue took out a flashlight to shine it on. We both saw clearly that most of the words "gui crawling" were in the same style of writing, except that the fonts changed slightly from bottom to top. It didn't seem to be one time. It was finished, but it took a long time to write it all. The strokes on the bottom line are very shallow, but still distinguishable. Lin Xue and I connected to the imperial database and slowly translated them - starting from the bottom, because various literary and artistic works tell us that the beginning of such ancient secret scriptures is nonsense about thanking xx, which is specially used to make legs faster. The villain spent a long time there and was killed by the later protagonist with a sword. The most typical example is the Sunflower Collection. I wrote a line of Happy April Fools' Day at the end, which would have made all the people who wrote it stupid before.
When I first started translating, I was very excited. The lines of ancient words hand-engraved in the back garden of the dark god reminded me of the treasures, secrets, artifacts, and the halo of the protagonist. When I saw those ghost symbols, I seemed to see the glorious protagonist. The road was unfolding before our eyes - this excitement lasted for seven seconds, and we were fooled.
"Dad, you are lying! There are no big monsters in the garden!"
"Hmm..." Lin Xue and I looked around carefully as if we were thieves, and our heads touched each other, "Isn't this the black history of that female gangster's childhood?"
"Obviously." Lin Xue nodded and took out a camera from his pocket, "Mu Mu, needless to say, I know you need this!"
My considerate young lady, you understand your boyfriend’s delicate conscience so well.
While holding the camera to preserve the evidence, we continued to translate. The penultimate line on the stone pillar read: "Sneaked into the garden again, dad didn't notice, hehe, here's a souvenir - Bingtis."
Oh oh oh, I never expected that a fierce female gangster also grew up from a lolita state. Look at this innocent and childlike message. It shows the naughty little girl’s cute little resistance to her strict parents. , after seeing these lines of text, my soul, which had been assaulted several times by female gangsters, began to heal!
The third to last line: "I am returning to my old place for the third time! No one has discovered - Bingtis."
I:"……"
The fourth line from the bottom: "You can now enter and leave the garden freely. Leave a mark. I am an adult now! Oh yeah!"
Lin Xue: "..."
The fifth line from the bottom... I didn't even dare to read it.
I always feel that the mood is very subtle. In the past few minutes, we have witnessed the astonishing transformation of a lolita into a gangster. Don't look at it as just four lines. This impact has jumped directly from the news network to the legal system.
We also understand the reason why these words gradually change from bottom to top. Obviously, the height of the words truly reflects the process of Bingtis's growth. If the two of us are more painful, maybe we can directly calculate a healthy protoss here. The normal speed of a girl’s growth. I was a little rude and thought of Pandora and Visca, who are 1.2 meters per 10,000 years. I can’t help it, it’s all a conditioned reflex. As long as something related to growing taller, that’s what I think of first. Two little girls - if Pandora learns from Bingtis and writes messages on a pillar since childhood...
The pillars should have been carved out from about 1.2 meters upward.
After some sneaky and intense work, Lin Xue and I successfully collected this record of the growth of Bingtis, which can be called black history. We also checked it on nearby pillars and found some very funny graffiti. Obviously It is also a masterpiece of the goddess sister in the Loli era. I wonder what Bingtis's expression will be when she sees these embarrassing things from the "young and ignorant" era again. It should be interesting.
As for the two of us - well, the time we spent alone together without sleeping in the middle of the night was used to complain to each other and lie on the floor taking pictures. Lin Xue and I are considered to be the only couple!
