Deep in the woods, there is an abandoned temple, which is already overgrown with grass. Probably the old man who has lived in the Parthenon for decades does not know that there is an ancient temple here, and no one cares about it.
Ye Xinxia and Hailong walked towards the abandoned temple. The stream path that was gradually dyed red happened to flow along both sides of the abandoned temple.
The sun was blocked by the dense shade of trees, and vines were entangled in the broken walls of the abandoned temple. When Ye Xinxia stepped into the dilapidated door, pairs of eyes in the abandoned temple were watching her and watching her arrival. .
There were already many people in the abandoned temple, most of them wearing black clothes, but everyone was stained with blood, and the strong smell of blood filled the air...
Ye Xinxia stared at them.
They were all responsible for the massacre of Black Church personnel in the Parthenon, but looking at each of their faces, Ye Xinxia felt a burst of sadness in her heart.
"You are the heroes of the Parthenon, but then you have to flee, flee for me, flee for the truth of this matter, flee for the Parthenon..."
Ye Xinxia felt extremely guilty.
She had no choice.
This is the only way to protect the thousands-year-old foundation of the Parthenon. Or maybe I am too incompetent and can only sacrifice these knights who are loyal to me.
"You follow me and believe in me, but I can't bring you real light. I am an incompetent goddess. I am ashamed of everyone." Ye Xinxia bent down and said to these knight slayers who had eliminated the Black Vatican for themselves. They bowed deeply.
these people……
Gotta leave the Parthenon.
Moreover, they will be wanted in the future, and may even be hunted down by the Magic Association. More importantly, they will not be able to clarify their identities.
They will continue to play the role, become despised by people, become on the run, and become "real members of the Black Church" in the eyes of people.
But they are glorious knights. The brave men who accompanied them through these temple wars along the way. Their spirit is worthy of admiration. When they, the goddesses like themselves, were desperate, they voluntarily stood up to carry out the Parthenon massacre. plan.
Ye Xinxia didn't know how to repay them. They were a group of victims.
"Your Majesty, we have never wanted anything. Following you is what our hearts want. The future you want is also the future we want. We share the same ideal, just because you are still walking unswervingly. Following this path that all of us believe has a clear conscience, the darkness of the temple is torn apart by our own hands. This is the glory we really want!" Jinyao Knight Jiang Bin knelt down.
His eyes were covered with black cloth, although he could not see anything, not even Ye Xinxia's appearance.
But he understood that the goddess in front of him was the goddess worthy of all of them to follow!
She dared to face the filthy darkness, and she never surrendered to her fate. The most important thing was that she, like all the knights who truly guarded the temple, was still pursuing the light even if she stood in the rotten and dirty quagmire. Have given up.
Other knights also knelt down, including the female knight Hualis who had been beside Ye Xinxia and the master of the knight hall Hailong.
Including the temple master Hailong, there are a thousand and one people in this abandoned temple at this time. Each of their hands is stained with blood today. Like Ye Xinxia, they must be spurned by the whole world, but they know that they are for Why do you do it this way, and there will never be a trace of wavering or doubt.
There is no spiritual baptism, and there is no glorious brainwashing, but everyone knows that this massacre in the temple is for a better future, not for themselves, nor purely for the temple...
"Let's go, you go quickly." Ye Xinxia said to the thousand and one knights.
They are the greatest contributors to the Parthenon, but they must flee.
The mark of the Black Church will be with them throughout their lives.
And if the temple exists for one day, they will never be recognized, because once they tell the truth, it means that the fact that Ye Xinxia is the Pope of the Black Church will also be revealed.
Human beings are very complex beings.
Even if they know the whole story, Ye Xinxia still can't wash away the sinful forehead lines of the Black Vatican Pope. She represents the goddess, and she can never have the slightest involvement with the Black Vatican, let alone the Pope of the Black Vatican! !
This secret will be buried forever with the demise of the Black Church. Once exposed, the consequences will be disastrous.
Therefore, Ye Xinxia had no choice.
On the first day of the ceremony, those who deserve the most glory are these one thousand and one knights. It is Wallis who killed the Italian Red Archbishop, Helong, the Lord of the Knights Hall who killed Salan, and these knights who are hiding in the crowd. The lieutenant general eliminated the black knights one by one from the Black Church.
But starting from today, they will leave the Parthenon forever, carrying the identity of the Black Vatican forever, and guarding the secret of "Pope's identity" for Ye Xinxia forever!
Ye Xinxia turned around. She no longer had the courage to look at their faces or eyes.
Hualis and Hailong followed Ye Xinxia and sent her away from here.
But just a few steps out of the temple, Ye Xinxia's eyes suddenly turned red. She looked at Hua Lisi and asked, unable to control her emotions.
"Hua Lisi, if one day you are arrested by the people of the Magic Association and brought to me as a real member of the Black Church, what should I do? What should I do? I can't let such a thing happen, any of you It’s hard for me to accept that people are being killed as dirty Black Church members... Wallis, let them stay there first, I will do everything possible to keep you and keep you by my side.”
It's because I didn't do well enough.
There must be other ways that can clear their name for this massacre and allow them to be honored in the palace. They should not hide for the rest of their lives, let alone risk being hunted by the world.
Especially when he thinks that any one of them appears in front of him, he will definitely collapse.
The Black Church has been eradicated.
But what should they do, these one thousand and one knights, they...
"You don't have to worry about us, we have our own arrangements. You have done a good enough job. If it were me, I would have become a puppet of the Black Church, and I didn't even know it. You understand all this, and you bear the responsibility It is heavier than any of us, and you have found the only way out for the entire temple that has been trapped in the dark swamp." Hualis comforted Ye Xinxia.
If Ye Xinxia doesn't do this, more people will die.
A Parthenon controlled by the Black Church would not be able to imagine how many innocent people would be persecuted in the years to come, how many people with a bright heart would be desperate, and the evil of human nature would be nurtured to the extreme.
It was Ye Xinxia who stopped all this. How tenacious her heart was to be able to hold on to herself in such a collapsed temple.
Where does a temple need gods?
What these people are looking for is not the glory of God, but the light of Ye Xinxia's humanity that has not been eroded in the mud.
"But..." Ye Xinxia wanted to say something else.
At this time, Hailong had already glanced at Hua Lisi, who immediately supported Ye Xinxia and wanted to help her return to the temple to rest.
The temple also needs Ye Xinxia.
She can't stay here any longer.
The storm has not completely subsided, Ye Xinxia must return to the sacred mountain immediately, and use her image as a goddess to announce to the world that she will not let go of the "murderer" of this massacre!
There are still many things she has to do. At this time, Ye Xinxia must not have any emotions, even the slightest guilt for these thousand and one slaughter knights. Once she has emotions, her flaws will be exposed and she will be seen through. , and even gave the remnants of the Black Church an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Hailong walked quickly towards the abandoned temple at this time.
Hua Lisi helped Ye Xinxia and asked her to leave here.
But Ye Xinxia seemed to realize something. She looked at Hailong's hurried back.
Hua Lisi has been trying to distract Ye Xinxia's attention, hoping that she will focus all her thoughts on how to deal with this temple that is riddled with holes, but Ye Xinxia is really able to understand a person's emotions, even if it is Hua The moment of uneasiness that flashed across Liz's face was noticed by her.
"Your Majesty, you..." Hualis wanted to stop Ye Xinxia.
But Ye Xinxia broke away from Hualis, and she turned back and walked towards the abandoned temple.
Walking, Ye Xinxia turned into running, and finally rushed towards the abandoned temple.
"Hailong, stop!!!"
Ye Xinxia arrived in front of the temple and shouted.
The moment she was about to leave, Ye Xinxia noticed it.
She must not let Hailong do this. They are all the knights she respects most. If Hailong did such a cruel thing to keep them silent, Ye Xinxia would never forgive herself in her life.
…
"Tick."
"Tick."
"Tick-tick-tick-tick-tick~~~~~~~~~~~~"
The red and eye-catching blood overflowed. The moment she rushed back to the abandoned temple, what caught Ye Xinxia's eyes was a large amount of blood, pouring out from the necks of the knights in black.
The blood overflowed so fast and so much that it instantly dyed all their clothes red, and the mossy gray stone bricks under their feet were smeared into an extremely gorgeous pool of blood! !
"His Majesty……"
The few knights in black standing at the front looked at Ye Xinxia running back here in shock.
And Ye Xinxia seemed to be shocked to the core by the scene in front of her! !
She had an insight into the possibility that Hailong would keep these one thousand and one knights secret forever and bury them all in this abandoned temple...
So she ran back desperately.
She wants to stop Hailong!
However, what Ye Xinxia never imagined was that the person who slit the throats of these knights was not Hailong, but the thousand knights themselves!
There were a thousand people standing in the entire abandoned temple.
They still stood tall and straight, and they didn't even move a step when they left. Each of them held a black blade in their hands, and they used this black blade to slit their own throats.
As a result, a thousand arterial wounds were shockingly red, flowing down the neck together, and the scene was even more shocking! !
“No, no, no, don’t do this, don’t do this, don’t do this!!!”
Ye Xinxia called to the soul, she wanted to save these black knights who had made huge sacrifices for the temple.
"People will change. No matter how firm your will is, it will change with time, with the accumulation of emotions, and with the temptation of the world."
"We don't want to betray you."
"I will not allow my future self to betray you."
Time will change a person.
No one can guarantee that he will not be eroded by time.
Everyone can only be who they are at the moment.
So these one thousand and one black knights made this choice.
For them, this is also a kind of protection.
She deserves all of them to protect her in this way.
…
The soul emerged from Ye Xinxia's body, and she wanted to use the resurrection technique to bring these people back to life.
The divine light was dazzling, illuminating the entire abandoned temple extremely brightly.
However, the magic of resurrection can only save one person. The most important thing is that the person must be willing to come back to life.
These one thousand and one knights were not willing to come back from the dead.
Their blood spilled out more and more, and even if they tried their best to keep standing, they still fell down in pieces.
You must know that Ye Xinxia now has the most advanced magic in the world, but she cannot bring back the lives of these one thousand and one black knights.
Ye Xinxia's white dress was completely dyed red.
She burst into tears in the pool of blood.
This was her first day as a goddess, but she couldn't resurrect anyone in front of her.
This pale supremacy...
This unforgettable protection...
What exactly did you get in exchange? ?
Just a bud yearning for light.
How humble and fragile we are in this wild and savage world.
…
…
The brilliant lights of the Parthenon will last all night, and you can see some believers wearing religious robes diligently cleaning the blood-stained steps with buckets of water.
A strong wind blew from the other side of the ocean, picking off the fragrant flowers all over the Parthenon and giving them an intoxicating fragrance to the entire sacred mountain.
A white figure, dragging a long skirt that had not completely faded away from the bloody hem, walked back to the Goddess Hall step by step like a delicate body without a soul.
In the hall, everyone was smiling and holding a large bouquet of flawless white olive flowers. Ye Xinxia didn't listen to a word they said.
I kept walking until I reached my own quiet place.
There was a middle-aged man walking slowly towards Ye Xinxia.
"Xinxia, what's wrong?" Mo Jiaxing looked at Ye Xinxia.
This is the first time Mo Jiaxing has seen Ye Xinxia like this in many years. How could he be so lost?
Shouldn't we celebrate?
Shouldn't we be happy about the final election victory?
Why is it sadder than after years of hard work finally failing!
Ye Xinxia raised her head and looked at Mo Jiaxing's concerned look.
"Isn't it very hard? If it is very hard, let's go home." Mo Jiaxing became even more anxious when he saw Ye Xinxia like this.
I don't know why, but I want to take Ye Xinxia away from here immediately.
Others may not be able to tell her emotions from her calmness, but Ye Xinxia is his daughter, and Mo Jiaxing knows very well how broken and desperate she is at this moment.
It’s okay if this goddess doesn’t do it.
If it would bring such a result, if Xinxia was so difficult, it would be better to go home.
At home, at least he and Mo Fan are there.
Ye Xinxia has always been the most precious in their family. Mo Jiaxing and Mo Fan will never let her suffer a little bit of grievance, nor are they willing to make her feel a little bit sad.
Look at her now.
Even Ye Xinxia didn't say a word.
Even just looking into Ye Xinxia's eyes...
These eyes showed how hard it was to keep him from falling. This made Mo Jiaxing, a father, unable to help crying.
Is this still the Xinxia that he and Mo Fan have tried their best to protect?
If he knew that Ye Xinxia would become like this, he would never let her come to this place under any circumstances.
She was originally an ordinary girl. She had been weak since she was a child and had difficulty walking on her legs. Even though she needed care everywhere, in the eyes of Mo Jiaxing and Mo Fan, she was the most important person in the family.
As long as you look into her eyes, you can feel her pure heart, which has never been infected by this complicated world. Such a girl will make people want to protect her from the bottom of their hearts, and they can't bear to let her be affected by anything. A little bit of damage.
In that small home, it was just me and Mo Fan, but I could see that Xinxia was well protected.
Why was it that when she arrived at the Parthenon, thousands of people were surrounding her, but they still couldn't take care of her, making her feel like she had gone through countless painful reincarnations, like walking through the devil's cave of purgatory.
What’s the point of being a goddess?
She should stay in college, get along with those who are as gentle as her, feel the beautiful things she loves, and live quietly in those demure years like other carefree girls.
"Let's go home and stop caring about things here, okay?" Mo Jiaxing continued to console him.
Mo Jiaxing's words finally made some changes in the pale expression on Ye Xinxia's face.
She really wants to go back now.
If I could forget all this...
The tears that he had managed to hold back flooded into his eyes again.
"Don't cry, don't cry. If that kid Mo Fan sees this, he will definitely demolish the entire temple." Mo Jiaxing was heartbroken, but he didn't know how to help her.
Ye Xinxia finally managed to hold back her tears.
She took a few deep breaths, even though her throat and nasal passages were sore.
"You told me before that if someone around you passes away, you can plant a tree in the yard..." Ye Xinxia asked with a slightly choked voice.
"Yes, I planted a pear tree for a lady a while ago... Wherever you want to plant it, dad will help you." Mo Jiaxing saw that Xinxia finally spoke, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's it..." Ye Xinxia said.
Ye Xinxia showed Mo Jiaxing with her finger.
It was a mountain forest,
The mountain forest she could see every time she woke up.
