Chapter 541 Failure or Success?
Chapter 541 Failure or Success?
The next moment, the dagger slipped out of his hand, and the pain from the bones made him realize it belatedly. He was suddenly pushed to the ground, and his face hit the ground hard. There were marks on his face from the stone, and blood should have flowed down. His nose might have been crooked...
The dagger, which took so much effort to swing, seemed to have cut off a few strands of hair.
At that moment, he felt as if a contract had finally been reached and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"..."
My assassination has already begun, and cutting off a few strands of hair can be considered as cutting off part of it. Have I unilaterally completed the so-called contract?
"Why did you attack the Emperor?!"
The voice was filled with the sadness of being betrayed. He just looked into the other person's eyes quietly. Did the blood flow from his forehead into his eyes? He couldn't see clearly. There was a blurry figure in front of him.
"I wrote a contract..." His eyes were full of blood, making him feel a little uncomfortable. The scar on his forehead had not healed yet, but now he could say, "The contract God signed with me in my dream..."
"So you came to assassinate the Emperor?"
“…I’m sorry.” But it’s really hard to have the same day for thousands of days in a row.
In the dream, I experienced countless yesterdays, countless tomorrows, and countless todays. Yesterday is tomorrow, and tomorrow is yesterday and today...
The limited borders prevent me from going further, and the limited knowledge prevents me from learning more in countless reincarnations...
"Which one?" The rock spear was pointed at the tip of his throat. In this situation, if he used a little more force, his head might fall off.
Thinking back, I suddenly wanted to laugh, but I didn't know why.
It seems that when facing pain, the first reaction is to laugh, and there is no way to empathize with those pains...
"That dream demon..." After spitting it out, blood flowed out again, which made people feel sick. The throat kept spitting out blood. The contract was completed but not completely completed.
Choosing to inform yourself is equivalent to removing a part of it.
"Lord Emperor, please listen to me. My friend must have his own difficulties..."
"I have been trapped in one place for decades... Every day is exactly the same. I repeat that day over and over again in my dreams. My spirit has collapsed... I am willing to accept any punishment, whether it is the death penalty or imprisonment."
"What did you exchange?"
A contract is something that belongs to both parties, and a contract signed under duress will not be so powerful.
"I hope that the other party can bring me wisdom, bring me all the crystallization of wisdom that can be obtained..."
"You have completed your part. If the god does not complete his part, it will be difficult for him to bear the punishment brought by the contract."
In this land, the contract is equivalent to the intersection of all gods. Let's put it this way, in this land, people can die, but if the contract is not fulfilled, they will receive greater guilt and punishment than death.
The contracts in this area are usually witnessed by gods, and the contracts between people are witnessed by a few gods. The contracts between gods and people, like the ones that you let the law of nature witness, put both parties at the two ends of the scale, and are the only part of the balance at the moment.
"You have to be alive. At least you have to wait for the other party to complete the contract within the validity period. If you die, the contract will be forced to end."
If one party to the contract dies due to an accident, the contract ends and there is no problem for the other party.
"So you're going to lock me up now?"
Asking the other party softly did not yield any results.
This situation is the most uncomfortable. Will I be locked up, executed, or will I be judged after everything is over?
But the people next to him seemed to understand.
He didn't respond until he was thrown into jail.
Until someone used a cloth to wipe the blood off his face...
"I'm sorry..." I should apologize, I should express my regret for what I did...
"It's okay... The Emperor means that he can forgive what you did." Not executing you on the spot was already able to prove the Emperor's intention. Perhaps in his heart, he still felt a little bit of... guilt for what happened a hundred years ago.
"I did something wrong..." Nuo Linxi replied calmly, "I did something very wrong, but luckily nothing irreparable happened..."
I've tried my best to make sure things don't get worse...it looks pretty good, at least not terribly bad.
"I wonder what the punishment will be?"
"..."
A long, long time ago, the gods owed me a favor... If I use this to exchange for my life, is that okay? Anyway, I can't die, even if I am sentenced to death, it doesn't matter.
In fact, the letter I left before leaving had already explained everything that could be explained about the funds left behind, and it was more than enough, and my own funds would still be transferred there every month.
This means that unless something unexpected happens, everyone will be fine...
I prefer letters to saying goodbye in person, after all, if we meet in person, one day it might be the last time we see each other.
But if it’s a letter, it’s at least a formal farewell, right?
I once had a friend who was much younger than me. We made an appointment to play in the sand together the next day, but we said goodbye that day.
"Don't worry too much, I will do my best to talk to the Emperor... Of course, I will ask Xianyun to help!"
"No need..." There's no need to do so much for me...
"It's okay, this is what a friend should do. Don't worry, I will do my best for this!"
“…It’s great.” Sometimes it feels really good to be alive.
"Well, I should go too..." He finally stopped moving his hands, and realized that the other person had been trying to wipe the blood off his face.
It's a pity that I can't wipe it clean. The marks on my face are still there, and the blood is still there...
The more you rub with a dry cloth, the more it will hurt.
This place is quite spacious, with a window. There is a little light outside, so it doesn't seem so gloomy.
The ground was covered with straw, which was usually a bit hard. After beating it hard a few times, it became a little more docile.
I weaved the straw with my hands out of boredom, and one strand after another I made a quilt.
I am very good at knitting and have experienced it countless times in my dreams.
I am very good at weaving things with straw. It is a skill I once had, but I am more proficient at it now.
In fact, it is not warm. Covering yourself with a quilt can only make people feel wrapped, but not warm.
The use of placebo...
