After he finished speaking, Chagatai Khan frowned again.
"What method can he use to pester me?"
"You will know if you see for yourself."
"Yes, if you see for yourself you will know that the other party is playing What's the trick? What about Xi Gao Le? I'm afraid it will do something if I'm not here."
"It's okay."
The confused man rolled up the paper in his hand and handed it to Chagatai Khan.
“Put it where the clowns can find it, and they will hand it over to West Gaule.”
Chagatai Khan took the rolled up paper and promised:
"Okay, that's right, I. I want to see my mother. I have something to ask her."
The confused person shook his head.
"I'm afraid she won't see you now."
"Why?"
"You know, she has always been afraid of meeting you. It is also because of your free and easy personality that she met you. I’ve beaten you twice, but she was very unhappy with Soshyan just now, so it’s very difficult.”
“It was unhappy?” Making him look like a sad herdsman who has lost his flock.
"What happened?"
The Bewitcher shrugged.
“Don’t you know her character and temper? She probably made the other party accept Xerxes’ identity in front of Soshyan, and she may also want to make the other party realize everything she owns, including his wife The fact that both the child and the child will be inherited by Xerxes."
Chagatai tsked and covered his forehead.
"How could she say this? How could she say this? No one, even a man with a little self-respect, would accept it! Anger is natural, who can bear this?"
"There's no way, you know, she loves her children too much, she can't control this."
"Perplexer, you know she would say this, right? But why."
>
Halfway through speaking, he looked very helpless. He took two steps back and forth, then clapped his hands and said with some annoyance:
"You will push things to the extreme by doing this. I think it's okay." If we don’t get to this point, maybe there is a solution that has the best of both worlds. No, I have to talk to Soshiyang another day.”
The confused person didn’t say anything about this, and turned around. Asked:
"What are you asking Erda for?"
After hesitating for a moment, Khan replied:
"Ask me about Li again."
"Then there is no need to ask. She won’t say it. I’m afraid she has already regretted telling Soshyan this time. You can go about your business.”
Chagatai Khan walked to the exit helplessly, but. When he opened the door, he stopped again, turned around and looked at the confused person seriously, and asked:
"What should I do when I come for the sixteenth time? Where is my father? Can I see him again?"
Hearing this, the bewitcher replied lightly.
"He will have arrangements."
After Cha Hetai left, Huozhe turned and looked at a wall. There were many paintings on the wall, each one with a completely different style. Seemingly from a different civilization, one is obscured by the canvas.
After being silent for a long time, he walked over, reached out and pulled off the canvas, revealing the obscured painting. The composition of this painting is extremely simple. It shows a man sitting on a chair, leaning his upper body on a simple wooden table, with his face buried in his arms. He seems to be exhausted and has lost consciousness. There are countless illusions erupting around him in his nightmare. , causing him to be surrounded by poisonous snakes, hounds, crows and flies, as well as many strange faces.
He looked up and stared at the painting, but his thoughts drifted to a far away corner -
"Father!"
The clothes are old, old and full of scars The man in power armor knelt on the cold floor, kowtowing to the throne towering above his head.
“I am willing to bear this responsibility and sacrifice for Brother Xerxes!”
In the majestic hall, it was deep and quiet at this time. It seemed that all the lights were extinguished. In front of the huge pillars, you could vaguely see the motionless silhouettes of the Imperial Guards and the cold light of their halberds, but the shadows obscured their magnificent armor. It seems that in the entire palace, which is large enough to accommodate the entire world, the only thing that shines is the eyes of the emperor who sits high on the throne.
For a moment, the eyes narrowed slightly, but did not cast a glance at the prostrate figure far below.
"You used her token to come to me for such a boring thing. If it weren't for her sake, you would be dead right now."
After that, the emperor The person snorted softly and stood up.
"Father, I can do it! I will definitely do it! I am willing to sacrifice for Brother Xerxes! He is my mother's favorite child. If anything happens to him, my mother will be very sad! That's why I hide this from my mother Come to you! I can control what's attached to Brother Xerxes! Please let me try! "
The emperor turned a deaf ear to this, turned around, and said loudly:
"Throw him back into the sewer, and don't let him come in again! My time is precious!"
Then As he took a step forward, an easily overlooked figure next to the throne followed his king, holding a huge scepter. He turned around and cast a helpless glance below.
"Father! Father!"
Hearing the footsteps of the imperial guards approaching, the man kneeling on the ground reached out to the throne in despair.
"I can't even sacrifice for Brother Xerxes! Am I not your son? Why!"
The emperor stopped and turned his head slightly. He finally looked at the other person, and the man also greeted him. caught that gaze.
The next moment, he froze on the spot as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Do you still need me to give you a reason?"
After saying that, he left his sight, and the man kneeling on the ground lowered his head feebly, allowing the Forbidden Army to catch him. arms to pull himself up.
"Hmm!"
When he slid all the way across the rusty pipes and fell heavily into the mud after constant collisions, the filthy and smelly sewage also splashed on his face, and the surrounding rodents The disturbed animals screamed and fled back to their holes.
After lying in the sewage for a long time, he slowly raised his arms.
Soon, there was only a low whimpering sound in the sewer outside the palace.
"Father, what kind of look is that? Father, father, I am not even qualified to sacrifice. It has no value at all. In your eyes, I am a waste that can't even take the only life."< br>
The man curled up, covered his face with his hands and cried, then laughed loudly, his voice sounding like a ghost as he cried and laughed at the same time.
"I understand, I understand. The only thing that can impress you is power! Only power!"
Sitting up from the carpet, he released his hands covering his face and looked at Looking at the face in the mirror, it was a featureless face, only looking lifeless because of being withered and haggard.
Someone once told him that his face was almost the same as the most common image of his father when he walked in the world. He was delighted about this for a long time, until someone told him one day that that face was just a disguise. Represents countless false identities.
Staring at himself in the mirror, his dim eyes blinked, and he realized that he was dreaming again.
However, the next second, he found that the self in the mirror had changed and turned into another face, the face that he once envied and hated
