After being poisoned by her lover

Chapter 147 For Whom the Death Bell Tolls

Chus stared at the strange corpse quietly.

There are always warriors who teach us, let's face death, death is not a terrible thing.

In fact, death is really not a terrible thing, for the life that has already died, it is really not a terrible thing——

Because although he faced the pain of death directly, he lost his soul and consciousness because of it, and he could no longer truly see the after death...

For example: own hideous face, twisted limbs, rotten pieces of flesh.

But the living people can really see them.

At this time, people suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, indifferently realizing how fragile life is and how terrible death is!
When the horror of death is fully felt, fear is born and rebellion thrives.

It is human nature to avoid interests and disadvantages.

So people tried their best to look at the "corpse" with their eyes wide open, and subconsciously searched for the balls in the eye sockets of the corpse. By the way, they were shocked by... its shaky jaw, and the tongue pierced by two middle fingers. It penetrated, and was even torn in half by the bending of these two steel hook-like fingers.

It has been completely drained of blood, showing a pale texture like pork just taken out of the freezer.

It was more like a torn piece of paper, split in two from the middle, but the root of the tongue was still intact in its mouth.

Rather than saying that it was a poor guy who died of accidental drowning, it is better to say that it was a strange creature that died of cruelty.

The reason why it is said that he died of torture is because his thigh and calf were nailed together by steel nails more than [-] centimeters long, which made him have to bend his knees, kneel on the ground, and then If you look closely, it turns out that his feet were also nailed under his buttocks by steel nails.

Normal people don't treat themselves like this.

So he died of being tortured and killed by others.

So why do you say he is a strange creature?

Because people can't see his nose and ears, the eyeballs in the eye sockets, and most of his head.

Most horrifyingly, his slave robes and white cloak were intact, but—

His skin was gone.

People can be sure that he is indeed a human being, but it is impossible to identify him.

"Damn! Who is this guy!" Li Junyi groaned strangely, and added in a low voice to Qu Youyou beside him, "Do you think it looks like an old hen that has been skinned?"

Qu Youyou glanced at him: "Don't you think it's a very bad behavior to make fun of it in front of a dead person?"

"This person is dead, it can't hear anything, it can't see anything, and it can no longer trick the corpse into asking me for an explanation, and it can no longer do anything earth-shattering. I just say it, Yoyo, this You are just a dead person, you are too serious!"

Qu Youyou simply didn't know how to reason with this kind of person, so she simply stopped talking.

But Liu Meili rolled her eyes, and said in a strange way: "If the unlucky guy hanging on the cross is you, Li Junyi, I can't guarantee that you are like an old hen that has been skinned! This is a lot of metaphors." Okay! Ladies and gentlemen, look! This is so vivid! Hey! Don’t stare at me! Isn’t it a dead person! What if the death is really you! You can’t pretend to be a corpse and jump up to trouble me! Besides, It's not you who died! I said it! Why are you so anxious?!"

Most of the onlookers watched the movement here with the expression of watching the show, Li Junyi could only give Liu Meili a vicious look, but was speechless.

Lin Yikai sneered, and patted Liu Haiyang's shoulder: "I see that steel nail looks familiar? Go ask Boss Zhen..."

Liu Haiyang didn't regain his composure for a long time, when he heard this, his expression became a little nervous: "...Mmm."

"No, buddy, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing! Nothing! I just feel a little scared when I see a dead person..."

"Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! It's just death, it's nothing serious. Don't do anything wrong, and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door! We haven't done anything outrageous! Right!"

"Uh... that's right."

Hearing what Liu Haiyang said, Lin Yikai felt relieved and patted him on the shoulder again, comforting him a few words.

Lin Yikai has always been nervous and didn't notice Liu Haiyang's abnormality, but Qu Youyou, who was watching a play with a few people away, leaning on Wanlai's shoulder, noticed something was wrong...

She raised her eyebrows, and stood beside Xie Dongdong. Looking at the man's thoughtful side face, she deliberately lowered her voice and asked, "Did you find anything? Mr. Xie."

Xie Dongdong glanced at her, his eyes flashed with interest, and his lips curved slightly: "It seems that Miss Qu, you have already discovered something, haven't you?"

Qu Youyou let out a low laugh, her eyelids drooped slightly, her long and curly eyelashes half covered her taupe eyes, under her straight nose bridge, a small cherry mouth raised a sweet smile, her voice was pretty and cute To the extreme, she took Xie Dongdong's elbow, tiptoed and approached the man:

"Why don't we make an appointment, let's talk slowly?"

Xie Dongdong shook his head meaningfully: "Miss Qu's boyfriend, Mr. Wan, he lives under the same roof as me."

"But... isn't what we're going to talk about serious?" Qu Youyou stared at him with a pair of eyes, revealing a seductive and charming look, "Brother Yuanzi must understand us~"

Xie Dongdong laughed noncommittally, the two looked at each other knowingly, and turned to the other side.

Ye Zhaoling stood dumbly not far from the cross, seeing the corpse almost kneeling in front of her, Shirakawa Liansuke slightly leaned over and said, "Why don't you stay away?"

"... Is it necessary?" Ye Zhaoling thinks it is not necessary at all, where is standing instead of standing? "...I can't see anything anyway."

"It's true that there is no need to change positions, but we are only three steps away from it; this is not a big problem, in fact, there are many ways to prevent the filthy bugs from crawling on the corpse..." Liansuke Baichuan said lightly, But in fact, he didn't see anything resembling a bug.

Ye Zhaoling consciously took Bai Chuan Rensuke's hand: "I suddenly remembered, I'm dizzy, let's stand a little further away, Mr. Bai Chuan Rensuke..."

"You can call me Rensuke, although you can call me whatever you want..." Shirakawa Rensuke leaned over with a smile, and his thin lips almost brushed her earlobe, "But you can definitely call me more intimate, so that we can appear The plan is more seamless..."

Ye Zhaoling blinked: "Standing among so many people, I am not so afraid. The murderer can't attack me in public right now?"

"You have the right not to be afraid, and I also have the obligation to protect your safety, my little Ling'er." With a low smile, he pulled Ye Zhaoling to stand in a corner away from the cross and the corpse.

Ye Zhaoling felt as if ants were crawling all over his body because of this intimate and ambiguous address. After he was taken to stand stiffly, he quickly pulled out his hand, but failed.

"Mr. Bai Chuan..."

"...this bouquet?"

"Huh? What?"

Ye Zhaoling, who was caught off guard by the questioning, was a little dazed. Bai Chuan Rensuke picked up the bouquet of tulips on the table, lowered his head and sniffed the fragrance of the flowers, and asked gently, "This bouquet was given to you by Rust."

Ye Zhaoling raised his head, his eyes were blank, this bouquet of flowers was given to him by that strange man, not Lord Ruster...

Shirakawa Rensuke stretched out two fingers, picked up the gold-plated card inside the bouquet, and shook it gracefully. The card made a crisp sound in his hand. He stared intently for a few seconds, and said in a gentle tone:

"Tulips look up from the sand, bear the night dew to prepare for the morning wine. Please raise your cup and get drunk until the jade mountain falls to the ground—like an empty cup."

"The signature is - Rust."

Ye Zhaoling raised his hand and slapped him on the wrist, then groped for a while, but couldn't find the card.

"……give me."

Shirakawa Rensuke could clearly see the confusion and panic in her expression. This poem praising tulips did not bring her any good feelings, but instead caused the blood on her cheeks to fall apart in an instant.

So he put away the card and put the tulip into her arms.

"Tulip has the effect of calming and calming the nerves. It contains a large amount of alkaloids, which can directly act on human nerves, improve the activity of nerve cells in the human body, and relieve human anxiety, irritability, neurasthenia, insomnia, and many other adverse symptoms. They all have good therapeutic effects.”

Ye Zhaoling stayed where he was holding the tulip: "...Huh?"

Shirakawa Rensuke led her into the crowd.

Father Chus had already listened to the oracle in the center of the church. The rose window of Our Lady sprinkled orange-red and colorful colors all over the church.

Chus glanced lightly at the corpse hanging on the cross, and finally landed on the small sailboat on the table.

"Today, I told the children a story..."

The beaker on the table shouted: "I know! It's the story of a brave man! This brave man's name is Jason! Jason is looking for the Golden Fleece!"

The priest nodded kindly: "The beginning of the story is extremely beautiful."

The old mushroom said at the right time: "The end of the story is often extremely tragic."

The vines climbed up the table, and the clear voice echoed in the church: "Jason, he was originally a prince of a country in Greece. However, when Jason was very young, his uncle launched a rebellion and usurped his father His father worried that Jason would be implicated, killed by his uncle, or encounter other dangers, so he secretly sent him to a teacher named Chiron."

"Chiron sympathized with what happened to Jason, and tried his best to teach him. Jason lived up to everyone's expectations. In 20 years, he has grown into a heroic warrior."

"So, he bid farewell to Chiron, and prepared to go back and take back his rightful throne."

"Jason has come to his own country."

"But Jason's uncle didn't want to give up the throne honestly. He called Jason to his face and said hypocritically: If Jason can help him find the rare treasure - the Golden Fleece, he is willing to give it up The throne. Jason promised."

"So Jason embarked on a glorious quest to find the Golden Fleece."

Chus looked at the vines with great satisfaction: "Yes, Jason, who piloted the Argonaut to find the Golden Fleece, became famous and became a hero known far and wide—"

"But what I didn't tell you is that it was Jason, the legendary hero, who made Princess Medea's miserable life by himself, and made himself irreparable."

The old mushroom sighed: "In the ancient Greek era, the hero Jason who stole the "Golden Fleece" abandoned his wife and son, and married a new love, forcing his ex-wife Medea to become the goddess of revenge."

Chus retells the story of the Golden Fleece. Jason drives the Argonaut to look for the Golden Fleece. During his adventure, he meets Princess Medea and gets her love. Therefore, with the help of Medea, he gets The Golden Fleece became a famous hero.

But later, when he fell in love with a younger and more beautiful princess, he abandoned Medea and their two children without hesitation and formed a new love.

"Medea was in despair, and hurried around in her husband's palace: 'My God, how can I live? Let death have mercy on me! Oh, my father, my hometown, I despicably left You! O brother, I killed you, and your blood is now on me! But it was not Jason, my husband, who should punish me, for whom I sinned, O Goddess of Justice, destroy him, Destroy his young mistress!'”

But she made one last effort to point out his treachery to her husband, so that he might change his mind.

"She came up to Jason and said, 'You have betrayed me, and now you have found a bride, and you have abandoned your children. If you had no children, I could have forgiven you, but now I cannot forgive you. Do you think that the god who listened to your oath of loyalty to love no longer exists? Do you think that there is a new law now that you can break your oath? Now, I ask you as a friend, where do you want me to go? ?Do you want to send me back to my father? That is the place where I abandoned him for you and killed his own son, my own brother. Have you forgotten? Where else can you put me? If your ex-wife leads your son to wander around like a beggar, what glory do you have?'”

"Jason was indifferent. He only promised her and the children a sum of money, and wrote letters to friends everywhere to take her in."

"Medea was completely disappointed in him. She no longer had any illusions about him, but she still forgave his mistakes in front of Jason with tears, but did she really forgive Jason?"

"Of course not. But Jason really thought she had forgiven him, and was even more overjoyed, and made all kinds of promises to Medea and the children. Medea convinced him with sweeter words that she had forgiven him." She hated him no more. She begged her husband to leave the children in the palace and let her go alone. In order to obtain the consent of the bride's father, the king, she took from her storeroom a precious gold As a gift, Jason gave it to the bride as a gift. After hesitating for a while, Jason finally agreed. He sent a servant to give the gift to the bride. But these precious robes were all soaked with Made of the material of a highly poisonous potion. Medea waited moment after moment after her false farewell to her husband for the news that the bride had received these gifts. A trustworthy servant would tell her the news. The servant finally He rushed over panting, and shouted from a distance: 'Medea, get on board and run away! Your enemy and her father are dead.'"

In this way, the angry Medea poisoned Jason's new love and her father. At the same time, in order to avenge Jason, she killed her two children with her own hands. concerned people.

After experiencing a series of blows, Jason plummeted from the proud hero's throne and became a lonely loser.

Finally, in his later years, Jason often returned to the Argo, sitting under the bow and recalling his past heroic deeds.Suddenly one day, while taking a nap, Jason was crushed to death by a heavy log falling from the bow of the Argo.

"Jason personally created Medea, one of the three major tragedies in ancient Greece."

Chus said here, with a more loving smile: "One person's tragedy is usually caused by another person. This is a fact, and it is the truth."

"My dear children... I have warned you countless times, the thirteen commandments, the thirteen commandments! As long as each of you can honestly abide by the thirteen commandments of the Golden Sun Reserve! Then your Life wouldn’t go to extremes! You wouldn’t really open the Pandora’s box that would lead you to the point of no return!”

"Once you open this evil box, what awaits you will be cruel punishment..."

"You..." Chus looked around, and his blue eyes were full of wisdom, "I believe you are not willing to accept punishment, are you? Everyone has seen the way we execute evil people..."

"I didn't think that way was appropriate, because it was too cruel and impersonal. But, that is our rule, and that is the obligation we must implement! Even though, the process of punishment..."

His ending sound is melodious and beautiful: "It is better to die than to live."

The old mushroom added: "Master Chusi said that, it is not an exaggeration at all. Give an obedient child a candy, and give a naughty child a stick. Human parents also educate their cubs in the same way. Although our punishment It's not impersonal, but it's reasonable! It's completely in line with the rules of our Golden Sun Reserve."

"It's just that the punishment we give to the evil people will definitely be the most severe punishment, and that is—"

"die."

"My most sincere greetings to the Sun God with death alone!"
