Chapter 1508 The Djinn who loves to tell stories
The red lamp god didn't think for a long time... only about half an hour before it came out of the lamp again.
Not as aggressive as at the beginning, the red djinn seemed particularly silent at this time.
"Mr. Deng Shen, it seems that you have achieved results, right?" Boss Luo had an impeccable professional smile on his face... He had always regarded the identity of [shop owner] as a profession. The emotional problem that was used to distinguish myself from myself as a [shop owner] was gradually fading, but it was not cured well.
"I really want to say that your fake smile is annoying..." The red lamp god shook his head: "But why do I have the feeling that you are sincere?"
Luo Qiu said softly: "Because I hope that every customer who completes the transaction can get what he really wants."
"This is my answer." The red djinn waved his hand and shot a patterned card towards Luo Qiu.
Boss Luo took it, opened it and took a look - what was written on the pattern card was: Soul.
Boss Luo smiled slightly and said: "It seems that Mr. Deng Shen takes his own soul more lightly than the other two things."
The red lantern sneered: "As long as I don't die soon... My soul is equally important, but at least it still belongs to me before I die. When I leave the magic lamp, the elves with the powerful power of the magic lamp will I will never die easily.”
Luo Qiu slowly put the cards away and wished: "I also hope that Mr. Deng Shen can live a long life."
"Stop talking nonsense... I have already agreed to your terms!" The red djinn suppressed the anger in his heart at this time, "Hurry up and make your third wish! You cunning guy!"
"That's right..." Boss Luo nodded and said thoughtfully: "But suddenly I have to make a wish, and I don't know what to wish for."
It has already signed a contract to sell its soul, just so that the other party can make a third wish. Now it has even sold itself, but the other party is procrastinating... How can the red djinn survive at this time? The voice suddenly became sharp, "I have agreed to your request!!"
"No, no, please don't misunderstand." Luo Qiu said apologetically at this time: "Please believe that I have no intention of making things difficult for you. Dear Mr. Deng Shen... I will definitely fulfill the wish I have promised. It's just that I don't mean to make things difficult for you. …”
"It's just?" The green roots on the red djinn's forehead were about to pop out, and streams of flames even spurted out from its nostrils. It gritted its teeth and said, "It's just what!?"
Luo Qiu said seriously: "It's just that since it's a rare opportunity to get a wish, of course you have to think carefully about what wish you should make...can't let it go to waste, right?"
——Didn’t you just use two wishes to ask two boring questions...and now you actually tell me that you need to think about it carefully and not waste it?
The red djinn suddenly exploded with anger. If it weren't for his dignity, he would not be able to pick it up at all. At this time, he really seemed to transform into a giant and trample the opponent to death like an ant!
"You who have been waiting for thousands of years, even thousands of years...do you still care about this little time?" Boss Luo said casually: "Mr. Deng Shen."
The red lantern took a deep breath - it didn't want to be so furious. The problem was that its original character was to be violent. It had been trapped in the magic lamp for these years and had not restrained much - in such a trapped situation. The environment will only make the already not very good character even worse.
"Okay, I'll wait for you here!" The red djinn snorted, "Wait until you are willing to make a wish!"
I feel that as a genie of the magic lantern, I have completely lost the face of the genie of the lantern in one day... The red genie's eyes seemed to be spitting fire, and he conjured a stool out of thin air and sat on it. Above, holding hands... shaking legs.
"By the way, what will happen to people who fail to pass the test?" Boss Luo suddenly asked at this time.
The red djinn said impatiently: "You will fall into an illusion and be unable to extricate yourself! This is a test that reflects the things you want most in your heart. In fact, you can't get things in real life... dream about what you want! Once you get it, who will Are you willing to let go? So those who are trapped in the illusion are unwilling to leave, and there is only one final outcome, and that is to starve to death!”
Boss Luo suddenly took a look at the magic lamp on the table, "It doesn't seem to have the function of an illusion."
"It was set up by the last person who summoned me." The red djinn said impatiently: "He invited a powerful wizard, set up this passage that can test the soul, and finally killed the wizard... There should be someone outside Many corpses, right? One of them should be the wizard's - who cares? I just care about who can pass the test!"
Boss Luo couldn't help but wonder: "Since this is not a test given by the magic lamp itself, but what outsiders call... the final result of its test, can the magic lamp itself accept it?"
The red djinn suddenly said angrily: "Didn't you pass the test and come in, and then successfully summon me out?"
Luo Qiu said calmly: "I didn't encounter any illusions on the road."
"No?" The red lamp god frowned, then shook his head and said: "Never mind this, you finally succeeded in summoning me, right? Only people with pure hearts can be recognized by the lamp... Eh. , wait, what’s going on?”
Only then did the red lamp god discover a problem that he had ignored at the beginning - the attitude of the lamp was very ambiguous!
It neither admitted nor refused - it did not even give any information to the red djinn as the genie of the magic lantern, but quietly recorded the two promises made by the summoner at the beginning as the red djinn that had come true. Number of questions asked.
"Strange... this is the first time I have encountered such a thing." The red lamp god muttered quietly... but the lamp was not damaged in any way.
The red djinn was really puzzled by this kind of indifference and automatic increase in the number of times he could fulfill the summoner's wishes.
The red lantern couldn't help but stare at the place where he lived - the magic lamp. The magic lamp had no luster at this time. Even if it was placed among the many lamps, it seemed to be the most inconspicuous one. It's like saying: We don't know, and we don't dare to ask.
...Are you kidding me?
The red lamp god shook his head. He didn't care what the lamp was doing at the moment, as long as it didn't deduct the number of times he could fulfill his wishes... He didn't care about the rest!
"Hey! Have you thought about it yet?"
"Mr. Deng Shen, can you reverse time and space?" Boss Luo asked seriously at this time: "The kind that goes back in time."
"Go back in time? It's easy!" The red djinn didn't even think about it at this time, and laughed loudly: "It's just about going back in time, I thought you were going to promise something... Wait, what did you say?"
"Reverse time and space, go back in time." Luo Qiu thought for a while, and suddenly said with a hint of unrealistic hope: "Just let me go back in time to four years ago."
The red lamp god was silent for a long time, looking up and down at the summoner in front of him, and suddenly said expressionlessly: "Please speak human words."
"Can't you do it?" Boss Luo's tone seemed to contain a hint of disappointment.
In fact, such an answer seems to have been met the moment the question arises... The trace of unreality he holds is the remaining humanity in him.
"If I could go back in time, I would definitely go back to the beginning. How could it be possible..." The red lamp god shook his head: "Listen, although the magic lamp can theoretically fulfill all people's wishes, there is also one Limit! Because the limit of human needs has been almost taken into consideration from the beginning! The rules of the three wishes are also set to avoid human greed breaking this limit... Time is the most powerful force in the world, more powerful than anything else. force I must be strong! In the face of time, I will eventually perish... I can't turn back time! But why do you regret it? Just make a wish and I'll help you make up for it... The dead can be resurrected, and things that have been destroyed can be restored! As long as the thing that caused regret no longer exists, there is no need to regret... Shouldn't people look forward?"
"That's what you said."
What surprised the red djinn was that it had already lost its dominance from the beginning, but at this time, it actually felt from this strange summoner that he was really listening attentively... Well, an illusion. ! It must be an illusion.
So Boss Luo smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Deng Shen, I want to make a third wish."
The red djinn suddenly pricked up his ears, rubbed his palms, and became impatient.
I only heard Boss Luo say slowly at this time: "Can you tell me your life...the story from your birth to today."
"You said...what?" The red djinn opened its mouth - its eyes widened again and its mouth grew... It couldn't even remember how many times it had been surprised in this short period of time.
Luo Qiu said calmly: "I really don't have anything that I need too much... Since Mr. Damp God can't do it if I need it, why don't you tell me about your life. It will be very lonely, living in the magic lamp all the time. Fulfill the wishes of each person who is qualified to summon you, and then return to the magic lamp, over and over... If you don’t want it, just say something.”
"You..." The red djinn frowned, and suddenly looked strange, "Are you really a fool?"
"I have made a wish...one last wish."
After the red djinn was silent for a long time, he slowly breathed out... He patted his palms gently, and the dark and huge room in front of him was suddenly swept by bursts of reddish-brown smoke.
After that, the surrounding area became brighter... It was a very spacious and bright room, and on a rather exquisite large bed, a pregnant woman was in agony, surrounded by a large number of servants.
Outside the room, there were more people waiting anxiously - including a man with a majestic face.
What was in front of him were all phantoms created by the power of the red djinn - but they were as lifelike as real people... At this time, it said slowly in a low voice: "One day, the king of this country anxiously came to the scene. Waiting outside the queen's chamber, for the prince of this country is about to be born."
Hearing this, Boss Luo suddenly blinked curiously, "This should be the ancient kingdom of a certain period... The child was not born yet. At that time, there was already technology that could determine the gender of the baby."
"Don't interrupt!" The red djinn glared angrily, "I said it's a prince, it's a prince!"
This is indeed the case, Luo Qiu nodded obediently.
"The prince was born smoothly." The red djinn collected its thoughts at this time and continued the story in the room - as its voice changed, the surrounding scenes began to flash like a revolving lantern.
"The prince is like the darling of God. On the day he was born, the whole country ushered in a bumper harvest, an unprecedented bumper harvest, so he was loved by the people across the country."
"He is smart, tough, and strong. He is the pride of the kingdom. There is no doubt that he will succeed the king and become the new king. Everyone believes that under the leadership of the prince, this country will live a better life." A happier life, even the king thinks so.”
"Soon, the prince was already ten years old. He became stronger, and the teachers in the palace had nothing to teach him anymore. In order for the prince to learn more knowledge and become more wise, the king ordered , looking for capable people to become the prince’s teachers all over the country.”
"Finally one day, a powerful wizard came to the king." The red djinn paused for a while, then took a deep breath and said in an almost cold voice: "The wizard has this incredible power. , on the first day he met the king, he used his strong strength to gain the king's recognition, and appointed the wizard as the prince's new teacher. ”
"But the king probably wouldn't have thought that the kingdom's destruction would start from this moment..." The red djinn suddenly stopped.
It was right in front of Boss Luo, clenching its fists hard, and its green roots covered the entire ferocious face one by one with rage... At the same time, its whole body was even trembling, showing that it At this time, the inner peace was uneasy, and the realistic fantasy figures around him were even more distorted.
The red lantern was like a volcano about to erupt, and a powerful force leaked out... But soon, the magic lamp shot out chains, strangling the red lantern.
It had to gradually regain its quietness, sighed, and suddenly glanced at Boss Luo again, "Do you really want to hear this story?" (End of Chapter)
