Chapter 1830: Enlightenment - Zhong Lou Lovers

~10 min read 1,857 words

"Speaking of which, the Fog Camp is also filled with sin chains..."

Xia De thought of this again, and then decided to ask his question at this moment:

"You asked me this question, is there any reason?"

"The chains you possess are not a power that anyone can master. Cherish this power. You may not understand what this means now, but one day you will realize what kind of gift the person who gave you this power has bestowed upon you."

This answer was basically no answer, but it at least showed that 【Sin Chain】 was a very unique power... Xia De knew it was unique from the beginning. After all, it was the only strange technique he had come into contact with so far that could directly act on the life ring of a Ringed Ringed Shushi.

You know, even for relics that could directly affect the life ring and "the other me" of a Ringed Ringed Shushi, he had only seen that mirror in the underground ruins of Tobeisi so far.

The transaction was completed. On the right side of Mr. Richard Jackman's soul, who was using his spiritual body to block the crack in the flames, a corpse appeared on the ground in the flames, and the corpse was clearly identical to the soul.

The soul was unable to move because of blocking the crack, and the corpse was naturally unable to move. But in the eyes of Xia De and Miss Higgins, the two were gradually approaching, until they merged into one.

"Space overlap? Or is the earth moving?"

Naturally, no one answered this question. After obtaining the body, the woman who was suffering in the flames actually stood up. The god at the top of the bell tower waved his hand, and golden light appeared, temporarily sealing the huge crack spitting out flames on the ground.

However, the soul could be considered to have gained freedom in that way. This was at least much better than blocking the crack of demon flames.

Miss Xi Xia De suddenly let out a sigh with a hint of horror because she really saw the body of the living Mrs. Mai Ling Fu merging with the dead knight's body. The souls that missed each other wanted to hug tightly, so the flesh that blocked the souls really merged according to our thoughts.

The sentence that should have been said many, many years ago was finally spoken at this moment.

【Love someone, and wait for her all your life; love everyone, and protect everyone's happiness. The attraction of soul to soul, the fusion of flesh to flesh, loyal love can cross long time and distant space. The farthest distance in the world is the longing of soul to soul.】

Beside the bones, the souls of Mrs. Mai Ling Fu and Mr. Jackman, holding hands, looked at our corpses blankly. The god smiled and pointed to this strange-shaped bone, letting it come to the front of Yuan Yun and Miss Xi Xia De:

"Richard!"

Ers frowned slightly. The young knight who walked out of the crack, although the soul and flesh were merged, didn't look like a living person at all. This was just a body manipulated by the soul.

The staggering knight also shouted this name:

I thought silently in my heart, and from this thought of myself, thought of my feelings with the girls. However, there was no more confusion in my heart. Even if I couldn't do the same as the two in front of me, hanging on to one person for a lifetime, I could do it, for the sake of waiting for someone, for the sake of realizing the promise I made, even if I used all my strength, I would never let anyone down.

At least Miss Xi Xia De didn't care whether the man was alive or dead. Seeing that I was moved, she returned the rusted knight's sword that still had a heavy sulfur smell on the man's body. Ers reached into his pocket, took out a garland that could be worn on the head, and handed it to the trembling Mrs. Mai Yuan Yun.

"Sarah!"

The agreement between the two that year was for Mrs. Mai Yuan Yun to weave garlands of parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme blooming at the intersection of the hometown road to welcome the lover's return, but Ers couldn't know this in advance, so my garland was woven with roses, laurel, baby's breath, and tulips. It wasn't even made by myself, but bought from a flower shop run by Angelina's maids on Silver Cross Avenue. It was also a common ritual symbol.

"Is this... loyalty to love?"

Since the Green Lake incident, Ers had seen many different fusion monsters. But only the bones seen at this moment, in my opinion, were not terrifying and strange, but had a holy meaning.

I went to look at my life ring, understanding that this gold spirit rune was the power formed by my heart truly understanding "loyalty" and feeling the story.

The promise made half a century ago, after years of waiting, after countless sunrises and sunsets, was finally realized in this dilapidated and strange bell tower. When watching the figure that had appeared countless times in dreams walk out of the fire, and hearing the heavy footsteps appear in the bell tower, even though Mrs. Mai Ling Fu had prepared for this moment all her life, she was still trembling all over, and the tears that instantly welled up blurred her vision:

Miss Xi Yuan Yun shook her head because of Mrs. Mai Ling Fu's words when she was young. She didn't believe that anyone could be immune to the influence of the witch's curse. And the fact was, Mrs. Mai Ling Fu had indeed never been a witch.

"Richard Knight Sun Sheng Ying."

Miss Xi Xia De's eyes were blurred by tears, looking at the young knight who put his sword back on his waist.

Ers shook his head, and then cared about the follow-up of the story: "My cousin and I were not familiar at first, and for so many years, I have been looking forward to him keeping his promise to return, so I didn't let her help me. Later, I still returned to my hometown every spring, and my cousin also accompanied me to wait. I also advised her that if I couldn't wait, I would find him myself. I tried divination for her, and tried other methods, but none of them succeeded. In the last two years, my body was not working, even if I was a witch, I couldn't let that ordinary person live a few more years, which led to the plan of coming here."

The young girl turned around, hugged her lover's neck, and hugged him again.

"I'll be back, Sarah."

The god said to Mrs. Mai Ling Fu and the young knight, and the two bowed deeply to express their gratitude. Afterwards, Yuan Yun and Miss Xi Xia De also bowed together, expressing our gratitude to the god.

"Do you understand?"

【Outlander, you witnessed the story of "Zhong Lou Lovers."】

The two used their hands to touch the bones, and then different visions appeared behind them.

Without any surprise, the last gold spirit rune belonging to Ers appeared the moment my hand touched the bones.

"Your souls can exist in the material world for 365 days, and then you must go to the end."

Two pairs of eyes looked at each other, and then both hugged tightly:

"So I said, this is basically a horror story."

Behind Miss Xi Xia De, at the end of the stairs that originally only had nine steps, the phantom of the tenth step slowly appeared. And behind Ers, in the thick steam fog, accompanied by the sound of whistles and bells, the huge brass ring that emerged, the brass-colored spirit light symbolizing "Enlightenment," was like a copper sun appearing at the top of the dim bell tower.

As for the bones after fusion, they slowly drifted toward the existing crack, and then replaced the original knight's soul, blocking the huge crack in the ground. The pitch-black flames still wanted to shoot out from the crack, but were absorbed by the bones, making them hug tighter and tighter, and making them gradually melt, merging with the crack.

Finally, the holy white bones completely filled the crack, perfectly blocking the exit of the flames. As for the remaining white flames on the ground, they were all absorbed by the strange bones.

All this was logical, as if it should have belonged to Ers:

"Welcome back, Richard."

Even though the soul was enduring severe pain at this moment, and there was no power in this long-dead corpse, he still relied on his last wish and a lifetime of guilt to walk with difficulty, and finally arrived at the bell tower.

"Look carefully, this is not something we can stop."

At this moment, Ers also had many new thoughts in his heart. I really admire the two in front of me. Whether it was Mrs. Mai Ling Fu using her whole life to wait for a promise that was unlikely to be realized, or the young knight using his soul to block the terrible demon flames to realize the promise of reunion, these were all enough to be written into poems and sung and praised for thousands of years.

"Oh!"

Although there were still flames burning behind the crack, the young knight covered in scars still staggered and climbed step by step to the crack opened by the god. He could see everyone at the top of the bell tower through the crack, and naturally could see the elderly Mrs. Mai Ling Fu.

【Outlander, you engraved the brass enlightenment spirit rune—Zhong Lou Lovers.】

The Misuo had not yet appeared, representing that I only understood the story but did not yet understand the power of the story. But that was enough. Yuan Yun had countless words in his heart at this moment, wanting to say to his girls. Others' stories ended, but my story had just begun.

Bones and bones twisted and entangled, and bone spurs intertwined. And the bones themselves had a white jade-like luster, carrying heavy miracles and blasphemous elements.

Mrs. Mai Ling Fu's trembling hand took the garland, looking at the young knight who hung his sword back on his waist with eyes blurred by tears.

Ers thought in his heart, stopping Miss Xi Xia De to prevent her from approaching:

The god looked at this scene with a smile, very satisfied with the story the mortals showed in front of him, which was more precious than gold. Miss Xi Yuan Yun's heart once again surged with yearning for love, and at the same time, she complained that she didn't actively pursue the beautiful girl beside her when she was young.

The two hugging each other were sobbing. This scene was waited for too long for both of them. Our hug was so hard, as if we wanted to rub each other into the other's body and never separate again. ===== CHAPTER 1831 =====
