Chapter 145: Waiting for Dawn to Rise (5)(1/2)
"You just said... the person you were parasitizing was his colleague?" Chu Zihang asked after being silent for a while.
"Oh, how cold it is that you actually use 'him' to describe your father."
The middle-aged man smiled and said,
"Let me tell you, I will live in human beings in the form of a 'parasite'. Life is long, and I have to have some fun. This guy is one of my chosen ones. As for your dad, he is also a very interesting guy.
At first I thought he was one of Loki's subordinates, and he was coming for me. But I didn't expect that this guy's appetite was bigger than mine, and I didn't know who I got the news from who was hiding this guy in this city."
"Is he here for Loki?" Chu Zihang whispered.
"You guessed wrong, keep guessing." The middle-aged man said with a faint smile, "Let me remind you, there is a monster more terrifying than Loki living in this city."
Chu Zihang's face was tense and his voice was hoarse as he said, "Is this my junior brother?"
"Hey, didn't you guess right?"
"No...no! The time doesn't match. My junior brother is one year younger than me, and he mentioned to me that he lived with his parents before he was ten years old, and then lived with his uncle after he was ten years old. My father
Did you predict that junior brother would appear in this city more than ten years in advance? Or is junior brother's past also all fake?" Chu Zihang said solemnly.
"Now it seems that your father was able to find this place only because of his keen intuition. You have perfectly inherited his advantages."
Norns smiled and raised his first finger and said,
"Since you brought it up, I will reluctantly have a few words with you. Pure-blood dragons need eggs to achieve reincarnation. That's because they are not pure enough. After their spiritual purity reaches a certain level, they can complete reincarnation without eggs. They
The power is imprinted on the soul, not the bloodline, so that guy’s past is true, and he has really lived to the present with a purely human life.”
Hearing this, Chu Zihang's tense face relaxed slightly.
If even his junior brother's past was a ridiculous lie, he didn't know who else in the world he could trust except his mother.
"Second, your father's first target when he came to this city can be said to be him or not. Have you guessed it? If you really can't guess, why not think about how many kings usually sit on the throne?
"
Under Knowns' bright smile, there is a chilling truth.
Like thunder on the ground, Chu Zihang suddenly shrank his eyes and blurted out: "Twins!"
He subconsciously thought of Norton and Constantine. Norton woke up more than ten years earlier than Constantine, but lost his memory and wandered in the world.
According to Norns' explanation, the younger brother's situation is exactly the opposite. As one of the twins on the throne, the younger brother was the one who woke up late and lost his memory and lived as a pure human until now.
But his brother, another monarch on the throne, woke up early and seemed to be in good condition!
Dad is here for his junior brother?!
But why did Junior Brother and the others choose to live in this city?
This is Loki's lair. Why do they, who have just woken up, build their nest in a dangerous place?
Just like a male lion, no matter how powerful it is on the grassland, it is absolutely impossible for him to live next to a pack of hyenas when he was young.
Unless...his brother is not afraid of Loki at all!
Instead, he may have taken over the magpie's nest, possibly even with the intention of letting Loki take the lead and gain sufficient recovery time for the two brothers!
"Which monarch is he?" Chu Zihang stared intently at the middle-aged man's expression.
"I'm sorry, I've stopped talking. I'm reluctant to have a few words with you." The middle-aged man shrugged, "But I personally don't think you need to worry too much about this. That guy is very proud, spitting and nailing,
When he never took back his words, he said he wanted to stop war in the world. No one from the dragon kings to the birds and beasts dared to commit the crime of war during this period, because all those who disobeyed him died."
"He said he would stand behind you, so he will definitely stand behind you,"
"Instead of worrying about his identity, you should think about how to get your girl back."
"Okay, go on."
The middle-aged man walked back to his desk, took out a key from the drawer, and threw it over.
"Take the key and prepare to receive your father's six-year late love guidance."
Chu Zihang raised his hand to catch the key, but did not turn around and leave. Instead, he stood there silently, like a silent tug of war.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man sighed, shook his head helplessly and said: "You are really a stubborn person. Okay, don't think about it too much. The reason why your father was targeted by Loki has nothing to do with your junior brother. It has nothing to do with his brother either."
It doesn't matter. Of course, the latter had a chance to save your father, but at that time he didn't expect you to join his brother's harem."
Chu Zihang's face became tense again.
"He has no reason to save us. I still have a sense of right and wrong." Chu Zihang said softly, "The last question is, when I met Loki, my father threw out a box. During their conversation, Loki
It’s just for the box, what’s in the box?”
Knowns was silent for the first time, but she finally gave her answer, because the big boy in front of her was so stubborn that she lost her temper, and because this stubborn boy was exactly the last person she chose.
When she sent away the "Distant Utopia", it was destined that the afterglow of the Third Sun Era would fall on this boy.
From this perspective, Knownes did not want any gaps or gaps between the boy and himself.
They should be the strangest and most intimate relationship.
Chu Zihang, who inherited the afterglow of the Third Sun Era, is in a sense half of the successor to the Third Sun Era, and is also her last half relative in this world.
So her attitude towards him has become tolerant to the point of being almost pampering.
If it were anyone else, she would never be able to take the huge risk of angering someone by telling some top-secret information in a pretending to be relaxed and joking tone.
Apart from anything else, that guy must be glaring at me now with an expression of "I'll eat you if you keep talking"!
And these seemingly simple secrets are also the answers that countless people have been searching for all their lives but cannot find.
Loki also pursued the secrets buried in the long river of history, but he also failed to get the answers.
Because apart from those who have experienced it, the only ones who know these secrets are the heaven and the earth who have witnessed everything, and the heaven and the earth cannot speak.
"It's a 'key'. The box contains a 'key' that can open the way to becoming a god. Your father got the key from someone. That night he should have left the city completely because his mission was completed.
, but he couldn't help but want to see his son for the last time. In fact, he would not have died that day. The route someone arranged for him avoided Loki, but..."
Tomato free reading
"But he went to see his son and accidentally stepped on a dead end because of a traffic jam." Chu Zihang continued softly.
His expression was neither happy nor sad, but only empty and dead.
He no longer cared about the "road to godhood" that Norns said, or the "key" that opened this road.
He squeezed the key in his hand, turned to look at Fingel, and nodded silently, indicating that he could go.
Fingel turned and led the way.
The two came to the basement.
Fingel stood by the door and took out a cigar from his pants pocket. Before he could light it, Chu Zihang snatched it away.
"Are there any more? Give me two more." He said softly.
Fingel was stunned for a while, complaining that you are celebrating the Qingming Festival, but he still took out two cigars and handed them to him with a pained expression.
Chu Zihang inserted the key and turned it. For the first time, he felt that the door could be so heavy, as if the door led to another world.
The door opened.
The basement was filled with a choking smell of coal smoke, but behind the door it felt much fresher.
The room was unexpectedly neat and clean. It really didn't look like a place where a man lived alone. But think about it, in that small house of more than ten square meters, apart from adding trouble to the busy woman, all the housework was done by men.
Chu Zihang was walking slowly along the corner, feeling every detail of the room, trying to find the traces left by his father.
But there are so few, so pitiful, it seems that the man has never lived here at all.
"By the way, this photo was supposed to be given to you in the Nibelungs, but I kept forgetting it. You can take it."
Outside the door, Fingel stretched out a hand with a photo between his fingers.
Chu Zihang walked over and took the photo in his hand. The photo was a family portrait of a family of three.
A family photo that can no longer be put together.
"A friendly reminder that there is something good under the bed." Fingel's voice sounded lazily and inappropriately.
Chu Zihang put the photo in his arms and pushed open the bed. Below was a secret door welded with iron and an iron frame. The iron lock on it had been cut off.
He opened the secret door and was about to go down when Fingel's voice sounded again behind him.
"By the way, I forgot to give you the flashlight! Take it!"
Chu Zihang looked silently at the flashlight stretched out in the air at the door.
Under the secret door was a steel pipe. Chu Zihang slid down the steel pipe and felt that he had entered a large space.
After his feet touched the ground, he turned on the flashlight.
As the beam of light illuminated every inch of space, the true side of the man named Chu Tianjiao was finally revealed before his eyes.
The first thing that catches the eye is the neatly stacked vinyl records, all of which are jazz classics. These things look inconspicuous, but there are not many of them left in the world. Some versions are simply astronomical in price. I don’t know where this man collected them.
Then there are the cigars, all of which are made in Cuba, and not a single one is a brand-name one. I guess this guy is a seasoned cigar smoker.
There are naturally cigars and whiskeys, both of which are the strongest island whiskeys. No wonder the place is still filled with the delicious aroma of wine and smoke after so many years.
