It rained heavily at night, and even the air was filled with humidity.
In the gorgeous golden inner hall, the atmosphere is as quiet as death—not only quiet, but occasionally a slight panting can be heard.
It's just that this panting doesn't look like pleasure, but rather it seems to be conceived from pain.
The wind gently blew up the golden curtain, and a pair of figures could be vaguely seen.
The extremely explosive limbs, the muscle lines are smooth and beautiful, in contrast to the slim and slender body in front of him who is absolutely controlled. The slightly curly long hair was silently scattered on the white mattress, intertwined with the cold silver hair, and the hands that were clasped, obviously ambiguously entangled, but with a sense of coldness—
It seems to be fighting, but it also seems to be farewell.
The rain did not bring any moisture to the two of them, on the contrary, it pulled apart the stiff and jerky relationship even more.
Liu Yu was in pain, like a knife was sawing inside his body—
Gaia backed away abruptly.
Barefoot, she stepped on the snow-white carpet beside the bed, her long silver hair half-covered her white insteps, and then a white toga was draped over her. That extremely powerful and beautiful body was like a flash in the pan. gown covered. The silver water patterns on the hem of the clothes flowed under the faint wall lamp and the clear moonlight.
Liu Yulan lazily closed her eyes.
At this moment, a gentle, soothing force entered her body, and the discomfort was relieved. She opened her eyes, but saw under his drooping eyelids, a pair of green eyes like gurgling water, as if pity—the words that could be uttered seemed to hide a sharp knife:
"This is the last time, you and Louis."
The white light poured into her body from between his fingers.
"Of course, this is the last time."
The girl lowered her eyes meekly.
But his chin was picked up, he held it up, and looked into her eyes seriously, as if he wanted to see a trace of rebellion or perfunctory.
But those eyes are like the deep blue sea, there is nothing in it, only the rippling water waves.
He puts her down:
"Remember your promise."
"Of course, I will remember."
The corners of her mouth curled up.
Never let you treat me like this a second time.
"Goodbye, then."
She closed her eyes sleepily, letting drowsiness overwhelm her.
Consciousness was dragged into a deep dream.
"Snapped-"
The sconces on the wall went out.
There is only one crescent moon.
The young girl fell asleep curled up in the corner of the bed, her slender limbs curled up in a ball, hugging herself tightly, and her curly blond hair was scattered around her body.
Compared with the wide bed, she looks so small.
He stood by the bed for a long time, until the night dew turned into frost, before he lifted his foot and walked away.
Beside the bed was a gorgeous floor-to-ceiling mirror with exquisite rose patterns engraved on the gold frame. When he was about to pass by, he stopped suddenly.
A slender and tall young man was reflected in the mirror.
He has beautiful eyes, a straight nose, and his whole body is wrapped in a white robe like flowing clouds. He also has long silver hair like satin, but the long hair is divided into two parts from the middle, one part is still as silvery as snow, and the other part is as white as snow. The interception has been reduced to ashes. The black hair tail climbs upwards, the higher it goes, the lighter the black—
But at the end of the hair, it was as black as ink.
He seemed to be stunned.
Immediately afterwards, a white awn fell from the sky, the beautiful silver covered the long hair again, and the thick black was covered up.
Everything seems to be business as usual.
He stepped out the door.
After walking a few steps, he stopped suddenly, turned around and looked at the golden palace silent in the rainstorm, wondering what he was thinking.
A branch appeared in his palm, and the branch and its branches were green and emerald.
He flicked the branch to the ground, and under the infusion of the white awn, the branch continued to grow and grow, and finally, a huge flower bud bloomed.
The bud unfolded, and a beautiful and fresh beauty jumped out of it.
The beauty has long blond hair, blue eyes, and two rows of white teeth when she smiles.
She didn't seem to be stingy with the sun, she showed him a big smile, and crawled down:
"Dear Father God."
The voice is also soft and delicate, like sweet cotton candy.
But he seemed dissatisfied, with iciness in his eyes, pointing forward a little, the blonde beauty suddenly turned into a late blonde beauty, she looked a little thin, wearing a black tutu skirt, slightly high cheekbones, tight lips Sip, as if he could swear a harsh word at any time.
He withdrew his hand.
"Fergus, go in and accompany the Queen of God."
"Yes, Father God."
The blond beauty seemed to understand what he meant, and bowed respectfully towards him, then turned and walked towards the inner hall.
Her voice was a little shrill, ear-scratching.
He seemed satisfied.
Even the blowing wind began to lighten up.
Walking to the long corridor where the inner and outer palaces meet, a priestess with a round face was waiting there, and when she saw him, she bowed:
"Meet God."
"Let Moliai come and guard the inner palace."
Priest Kitty was taken aback for a moment, seeing that the noble god was about to pass by like this, he quickly trotted after him:
"You mean, to, to..."
"Before the grand ceremony, the God Empress cannot take a step out of the inner palace."
This is to...
Imprisoning Miss Fergus
Priest Kitty was startled, and immediately dared not say anything, but solemnly crawled down:
"Yes, my God."
When he raised his head, he saw only the toga that looked like a flowing cloud disappearing at the end of the long corridor.
Outside the promenade, there was heavy rain, lightning and thunder.
The god went outside the temple.
He also looked towards the sky, heavy thunderclouds rolled in, and lightning split the ground.
The door carved with golden wild lions opened silently.
The hem of the white robe flew over the high threshold, and the slender and tall silver-haired young man went all the way in and walked to the wall, "Kalala—"
On the wall with nowhere to go, a door suddenly appeared.
He went in.
The golden gate closed, flashed, and disappeared over the golden wall.
Behind the door is a slightly smaller secondary hall.
The floor is paved with gold bricks, the walls are embedded with pearls, and the entire secondary hall is very luxurious.
Facing the door is a long gilded table.
A small golden wild beast squatted on the table, its mouth was open to the sky, and there was a small golden cup in its mouth.
But what was spread on the gilt table was a skirt that had already taken shape.
The skirt was extremely beautiful, like a pool of green and thick green, pure and bright, the skirt was layered on top of each other, yet extremely light, hanging down like a blooming rose.
But the silver-haired young man who looked extremely noble stopped in front of the table.
His jade-like hands gently brushed the hem of the skirt, and on the hem of the skirt, one after another irises were embroidered with silk threads of the same color. He stared at the skirt, his light green eyes reflected the light flowing above his head, as if staring at his beloved.
"Nineteen days left."
The low voice scattered into the air, like some kind of raving.
——
Liu Yu was awakened by a burst of thunder, and when she hugged her and sat up, the beast that kept chasing her in the dream disappeared.
There was rumbling thunder in my ears, and a hand stretched out to close the open window. A bolt of lightning pierced the night sky and landed on the person. Her long blond hair was slightly dimmed.
"Who?!"
A bright bullet was lifted from Liu Yu's hand.
However, it is blue.
It exploded in the room like blue fireworks.
It wasn't bright enough, but it was enough for her to see the man's face clearly.
Blonde hair, blue eyes, nasolabial folds, high cheekbones... a familiar face, as if I've seen it countless times in a dream.
"Mother?"
Liu Yu said in surprise.
She closed her eyes and lay back.
It turned out that I was still dreaming.
"Mother, is there something wrong with you?"
A sharp, slightly ear-scratching sound sounded in the room.
Or the voice of Mrs. Fergus? !
She opened her eyes again and sat up.
"Snapped-"
The wall lamps were lit.
The firelight illuminated Mrs. Fergus's still charming face, and she immediately noticed the difference just by looking at it this way.
Mrs. Fergus prefers a mature style of dressing, like black, purple, or red, and the man in front of her, wearing a pink flower bud skirt, greets her gaze with a lively and bright smile that does not match her temperament.
She also said to her:
"Mother, you can call me Fergus."
"Mother... my lord?"
Liu Yu blinked.
She thought of Moliai who looked like "Bruce", and a ridiculous guess emerged in her mind:
"Could it be that you, too... were created by God?"
Look carefully, this person's eyes are clean and clear, while Mrs. Fergus's eyes are more dusty. Due to her past experience, she is always wary when looking at people. She likes to smoke. The fingers of her index finger and middle finger are slightly yellow from the smoke. .
None of these.
More importantly, the way Mrs. Fergus looked at her was always loving—
That love is like a lake full of water, which can overflow at any time.
fake.
The smile on Liu Yu's mouth disappeared.
"Yes, my lord, God the Father created me and gave me a name."
Fergus answered her cheerfully.
Liu Yu: ...
Then, she was going to hear a girl who looked like Mrs. Fergus call her mother
It's ridiculous!
"So, what are you doing here?"
"Father God said, let me accompany mother, if you need anything, please tell me."
Liu Yu said with a cold face:
"Don't call me mother, please call me Miss Fergus, Belleja, or anything else."
She can't bear the title.
"But-"
"—Belia."
The blond girl is strong and authentic.
As if seeing her seriousness, this "Fergus" lowered his head meekly:
"Yes, Miss Bella."
"...you can order anything, and I will do a lot."
"thanks."
Liu Yu glanced at this Fergus. Her lifeline is extremely simple, only life and death, two points, like a life that has been deliberately simplified...
She also noticed that it was covered with a more mysterious light film than before. The light film was like an upside-down bowl, sealing the room. As soon as the blue silk thread came into contact with the light film, it bounced off.
Under such rules, it is impossible for her to go out without disturbing the light film...
Liu Yu's eyes fell on the admiring "Fergus":
"Your Father God sent you to spy on me?"
"No, Father God is afraid that you will be lonely, so he asked me to accompany you... Father God loves you like no one else."
Liu Yu: ...
She was not honored.
"So, I can go out?"
She put on her dressing gown, walked to the window with her soft shoes on, and reopened the window. The cold wind blows directly to the face, like a steel knife inserted into the body last night.
Through the darkness, Liu Yu seemed to see that the Cavaliers headed by Moliai were constantly patrolling nearby.
"No, you cannot leave this room without the permission of God the Father.",
really.
Just as she thought.
He intends to imprison her completely.
"Then when can I go out?"
The girl asked lightly.
A flash of lightning struck across the sky, and the girl's exquisite side face seemed to be split in half, half in the dark, and the other half in the light, "Fergus" couldn't help shivering, just a moment ago, she It felt like falling into an ice cellar.
She reached out to help her close the window:
"Miss Belia, it's cold outside..."
Liu Yu took a step back and looked at her quietly.
Only then did "Fergus" realize that Miss Belia was waiting for the answer to her last question.
"The Queen's Ceremony is over, and you can go out."
Liu Yu nodded, indicating that he knew.
I went to bed with a high degree of cooperation, but this time I couldn't fall asleep anyway. Everything that happened in the past few days kept lingering in my mind...
Tang Ying said: "Run! Run away! Melt into the sea like water..."
Edith said: "I am guilty, I am unforgivable..."
Louis said: "... Are you willing? ... Don't forget your ambition."
I did not forget.
Liu Yu thought, she reached out and touched the thumb bottle on the stone statue, and stuffed it into her bosom.
"I'm going to bed, can you leave me alone?"
"But God said—"
"—You can go and guard the door."
"Fergus" glanced at her carefully: "Then you need to call me."
The sound of light footsteps left, followed by the sound of closing the door, everything was blocked outside.
The room fell silent.
Liu Yu stroked the thumb bottle and put it back—
Of course she will.
The premise is that she can't get his blood.
If Banban was here and knew her plan, he would definitely accuse her cruelly, Liu Yu thought nonchalantly.
But so what, he can take her too.
In case she dies by accident—
Then die.
Better than being treated like property, or a canary in a cage.
The next day, the sky cleared.
Liu Yu went to the bathroom to freshen up, and "Fergus" went to the door to get the basket, arranged breakfast, and waited for her.
"Sit together."
she said.
"The only one who can sit with my lord mother, ah no, Miss Belia, is my lord Father God."
Seeing that he couldn't be persuaded, Liu Yu didn't continue.
She sat down at the table: "Where's Ban Ban?"
"Does Miss Fergus mean the bird?" Fergus tilted his head, "It can't get in."
"Can't come in? Why?"
Ban Ban has always been able to come and go freely in the inner palace.
"Sorry, Miss Fergus, this is God's decision, and we have no right to question it."
Fergus smiled.
Liu Yu immediately understood that she was afraid that Ban Ban would help her.
It is really watertight.
Liu Yu took a sip of milk, so the only way to break through is on the day of the God Empress Ceremony...
In the past few days, she has to behave calmly.
Seeing the blond girl mumbling unhappily, Fergus calmed down and heaved a sigh of relief.
Half of the time passed quietly.
During these ten days, Liu Yu acted as if he had resigned to his fate, but occasionally, he would stare at the window in a daze, calling her, and it would take a long time to answer.
Fergus was a little worried, so she went to tell God, and God told her to bring two people into the inner palace.
One is Priest Kitty, and the other is a saint who happened to meet on the road.
"Miss Belia, who do you see coming?"
Miss Belia was as dull as a rusty iron sword, and when her eyes fell on Priest Kitty, she became a little bit colored:
"You are here, Priest Kitty."
"Oh, God... You look a lot thinner." Priest Kitty covered her mouth, she forgot what she said for the Dark Apostle before, "You, you..."
"nothing."
The blond girl said weakly, "What are you doing here?"
"God sent us... to chat with you, or to play something else."
"I miss Edith," she said suddenly. "No, Edith is dead. Is Margaret back? Is the wound on her face healed? It's such a boring time here... Where's Mr. Calby?" , how is he lately?... How about Nataxi, is it still the same as before?"
The girl chattered around the people she knew.
It seems that she hasn't talked to anyone for a long time, and she looks a little anxious.
"Marguerite is back, and Miss Natasy is here," Priest Kitty told her.
The girl was immediately happy, her eyebrows and eyes became more lively, and she looked up at her expectantly:
"Then can I let Margaret come to see me? Or, Nataxi is also fine... Think about it, she is my sister after all... Priest Kitty, if you are worried, you can look at me..."
Priest Kitty pondered for a while, as if he was listening to someone's instructions, and soon dismissed the saint standing beside him:
"I asked them to come here. Miss Margaret brought back a new way of playing from the main city of Meyer..."
She was waiting for a turnaround.
Liu Yu thought.
Fate told her that her helper must appear between these two.
Margaret came quickly, her hair cut short and curls sorrel permed against her scalp, and she would have been playful because of her small face and big eyes—if it hadn't been for the scar on her face.
Unexpectedly, she brought a deck of playing cards, but the big king and little king on it turned into gods and queens. All those who wore clothes became archbishops, bishops, angels, knights, etc., and the rest were all commoners.
"This is a game I brought back from the city of Meyeria. It's very fun. There are many variations..."
The gloom between Margaret's brows seemed to have disappeared.
She looks lively and agile—
Liu Yu looked at her, lowered his eyes, hiding the surprise in his eyes.
Margaret's fate line is chaotic.
It seems... there are two directions.
One is long and the other is short, but the time is too short, she can't figure it out...
Nataxi came very late, she seemed to have dressed up specially, wearing a water green dress, her hair was combed softly, looking like a fresh green leaf. Seeing her look, he reluctantly smiled at her:
"Bei, Sister Belia..."
It's just that his face is a little pale, and he doesn't look very good.
And when he saw the shadow between Nataxi's eyebrows, Liu Yu immediately understood:
The helper this time should be Nataxi.
There seemed to be a shadow floating between her brows.
That shadow had a face exactly like hers.
Liu Yu remembered that among the ghost stories she had seen in the Jingu Library, there was this one:
"Give up a heart of jealousy and use the soul to make a deal with the devil... "
so…
Nataxi made a deal with the devil, and the fruit is about to hatch...
By then, she will look exactly like her.
