21. All staff of Prison [-]: We are very sympathetic to Master Minos who is going through widowed parenting.
Three years later, Northampton.
Abfika was sitting behind the desk, concentrating on writing a letter. On the American board, the competition among Western European powers ended with the victory of Britain. After France lost Quebec, it was difficult to maintain the front line. When it came to the "Paris Peace Treaty", it In the territory of America, there are only a few insignificant islands off the coast of Guyana and Newfoundland in South America.The two identity certificates prepared by Minos did not belong to the countries participating in the war, but Yabo Fika was also controlled during the war, and letters would be inspected, and information could not be freely transmitted. It wasn't until the news of the signing of the contract was sent back to America, and the port and post office opened normally, that they had no time to write to Shi On.
There is a row of symmetrical willow-leaf windows on the north and south sides of the room, and light-colored curtains are tied on both sides. The autumn sunlight is very good, and the room is brightly illuminated.There is not much furniture in the room. There is a row of cabinets behind Abfika, and the drawers are neatly labeled; there are two benches side by side near the door. The autumn climate is suitable and the fireplace has not been used. There is a small wrought-iron bell hanging that jingles when visitors come and pull the string outside. There are some edible plants and herbs in the garden, and there is a dogwood near the fence. The gate is not bolted, and it can be pushed in at any time. Outside is a road paved with gravel, leading to the church tens of meters away.Outside the church, there is a row of two-storey houses with arched verandahs, which were originally the residence of the clergy. During wartime, the priests of the church donated it as a hospital to accommodate injured and sick civilians.
The small manor where Abfika is currently located originally belonged to a French nobleman, but as France was unable to do what it wanted in the American battlefield, it was disheartened and put up for sale, and the family returned home.A year ago, he and Mr. Ruger passed by here and saw the information of doctors recruited by the church, so they bought a property and settled here, which is also convenient for taking care of the patients in the hospital in time.Now that the war has ended for more than a month, the hospital is not as overcrowded as before, and the doctors and nurses are gradually relaxing. Everything seems to be developing in a normal direction.
After discussing with Mr. Ruger, Yabo Fica transformed the living room on the first floor into a consultation room, so it would be more convenient for residents from the town to come to ask a doctor or get medicine occasionally.For Yabofika, being an ordinary person is more difficult than being a warrior, it is complicated and contradictory.When Minos attacked the sanctuary early in the morning, when he went to inform the village to organize the evacuation, he asked the prominent family in charge of the village why he chose to live here knowing that the sanctuary would experience war every 243 years.
"My lord, compared to other places, the war that lasts only one or two months every 243 years is completely negligible. We don't want to leave here."
Now he can understand such an answer. During the years of wandering, he moved with other civilians to avoid the battlefield and saw too much suffering and tragedy, even though he tried his best to protect them from being accidentally injured by the battle, hunger Fatigue, exhaustion and illness kept taking lives one by one. Many people would rather die in their homeland than be displaced.
If there is no accident, he will live here for a long time, until the number of years agreed with Shion that he can return to the sanctuary. At that time, there should be no one who knows him in Roderio village, and he can settle down like other people. They lived there like foreigners, waiting for the next holy war to come.
Yabofika put down her pen, put the finished letter in an envelope, and stamped it with wax.
Mr. Ruger went to the next town early this morning, and he was the only one left in the clinic. With three years of experience, plus Mr. Ruger's intention to teach, Yabo Fica has already reached the standard of an assistant, helping with diagnosis and treatment. Everyday ailments.Strongness and hope are the inherent self-regulation abilities of human beings. No matter how much suffering they experience, people can always recover and be healed by time.
Taking advantage of the lunch break, Jabofika planned to post the letter.He walked out of the house and hung the temporary out wooden sign on the fence.
"I'll take care of the house," whispered Dogwood by the fence.
The first time he heard the plants around him talking, the voice that appeared out of nowhere put Yabofika into a state of vigilance instantly, and the accent on the coast was really hard to recognize. For a long time, he suspected that something was wrong, but then Gradually accepting those very human reactions in myself, gradually these exchanges become easier, the plants will talk to each other and bring back the news around them, the town has a small population, if there is an emergency, the plants will immediately inform him, Will be back soon.
The post office in the town also serves as a post station for the flow of passengers. It is built at the entrance of the town. It takes only half an hour to walk there. Letters sent from the American continent to Europe will be transported to the big port cities first, and then sent by ship. Going to Europe, Sanctuary has not established an information channel with the post office outside. Some letters for help or family members will be delivered to the village, and the villagers will send them up the mountain. When Shi Ang receives his letter, it should be winter.
Yabofika thought so, turned into the main street, the mess left by the war has been covered by new traces of life, and the city began to restore its original vitality. When the residents of the town saw him and greeted him, he also respond.
A carriage slowed down and followed him slowly, and a voice he had heard somewhere called out very impolitely: "Hello!"
He stopped, and the carriage stopped beside him. Aiagos, the star of the sky, stuck out his head from the window and waved to him. He was wearing a long gray woolen trench coat, with two collars and shirt unbuttoned. Button, with a kind of cynical looseness, looks like a traveler passing through here.
"Hello." Only then did Ayagos realize that he didn't know the name of Pisces. When he heard the gossip, he always used the constellation to refer to each other. Obviously, this is not an appropriate name now.
"Abofika." Another person in the carriage spoke, and she whispered, as if reminding Aiagos.
"Abofika." Aiagos changed the name without changing his expression. Seeing that the other party was empty-handed and Minos was not nearby, he asked tentatively, "Do you live near here?"
When I met Tianxiongxing here, I didn't know whether the other party was on a mission or other plans. A few more conversations might yield some information, so Yabofika replied without concealment: "Yes."
Meeting someone you know in a foreign country is a very rare event. Although they are not familiar with each other, they are Minos' partner after all, and they can be regarded as close relatives. Aiagos suggested: "Go to Have a cup of coffee."
The main road of the town is not wide, the carriage stopped halfway, and it is okay to talk in another place, Yabofica nodded in agreement.
He got out of the car, and the lady who spoke just now appeared in front of Yabofika. Judging from her demeanor, she should be a soldier.
The family always needs to meet, and Aiagos introduced it generously: "Biolet, my half-wing, my partner."
After the three of them sat in the booth of the coffee shop, he said slowly: "I didn't expect Minos to really throw you away." It was no surprise that Aiagos would meet Pisces in the world, but he didn't expect it to be so It’s just a matter of time, Pluto wants to hold Minos accountable, at least it’s a matter of the next jihad. If he is in Minos’ position, he will cherish the past 200 years, instead of rushing to get rid of the relationship and throw people out. underworld.
Aiagos' tone was strangely calm, as if stating the facts.
As expected of a brother, he deserves a beating every time he speaks.Yabofika's fingertips twitched, and the emotions that had calmed down were torn apart abruptly, dull pain mixed with shame, and she couldn't find words to refute for a while.
"He did similar stupid things when he was still in Crete." Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Aiagos continued.The more that Minos cared, the farther he would drive people away before the danger came.At the beginning, it was said that he was married to the queen of Lykia in order to stabilize the dominance of the Mediterranean Sea. Not long after, Radamantis was exiled on charges of treason and treason, and he was never allowed to return to Crete.
The king's position only looks glamorous. If you want to be a good ruler, in most cases, you can't rely on your own preferences, but comprehensively weigh and choose the most favorable way to deal with it, so that the result is often contrary to your own wishes. Chi.
Back then, he was still full of resentment, so that when the three judges of the underworld met, they closed the door and beat the sky in darkness. There was still an advantage in dying early. Minos, who had already comprehended the meaning of the constellations, violently suppressed his brothers again. , although Rada was obviously suspected of letting the water go, Ayagos thought about it afterwards, and realized that perhaps even earlier, Rada understood Minos' hidden intentions.
Some people are always used to planning, weighing this and that, and finally choose the plan with the smallest loss, which is often far from their original intention and very boring.
Aiagos didn't say much, and it wasn't easy for Jabofika to ask, but he silently wrote down this clue, waiting for the opportunity to check the history of Crete. "How can I enter the underworld?" It's not his style to let Minos bear the consequences of the danger alone. In this matter, even if he can't save the other party, he should advance and retreat together.
Aiagos was amused by this question, "I won't tell you other answers except death." How to say that the other party was also a gold saint, and with this relationship, he will obviously not be truthful about the question about the underworld. Answered, but in order to avoid the other party doing something stupid, he added: "Many herbaceous plants grow throughout the year, die in winter, and the same plant grows in the original place in the next spring, but they are not the same plant anymore." Every plant god has only one life, and the soul loses its power after death, and there is no possibility of reawakening. Therefore, some gods do not recognize the existence of plant gods, but treat them as fairies or elves. As a result, there were so many types of plant gods that only the one in front of me remained, which became a rare and rare species.The same is true for human beings. Even if the soul re-enters reincarnation, after washing away the memory of this life, it will be two completely different individuals.
"Since you survived, live well." This is what Minos expected.
Aiagos is willing to say this to Pisces, but he has some empathy, because Baioret is not a born magic star, but a human being chosen by Mingyi.She was originally a female warrior defending the country, but she was slandered by the church as a heretic, and almost died on the stake in a foreign country. Her anger and grievance awakened Bechymos, who had been sleeping for many years, and became the lone star of this holy war.
After this life is over, his half-wing will not descend again.
"Can you bring him something for me?" Since she couldn't get a way to enter the underworld for the time being, Yabo Fika changed her strategy.
"What?" Aiagos asked.
Yabofika scratched her arm, blood gushed out, and the opened force field was fleeting, turning into the appearance of a branch.
divine blood.
No wonder Minos dared to release people so quickly, Pisces has fully awakened.Aiagos picked up the branch, pondered for a moment, and decided to tell the other party the answer truthfully.
"If I pass it on, it may take five or 60 years." What he exchanged with Aaron was a chance of resurrection and a free life like ordinary people, not for himself, but for Biolet. Aaron bought one and got one free, and kicked him out too. At his current age, it will be at least five or sixty years before he dies.Divine blood is a time-sensitive thing, and its power will fade if it takes too long. Even Athena, a combat god, can only last for more than 60 years.
"I don't have a better choice." Abafika said, Minos would not take the initiative to come to see him, and he would not know how to enter the underworld - there are several companions in the Golden Saint Seiya, but at the beginning he He is too alienated from his companions, so he has not exchanged the mysteries of the constellations with others, so he can only wait for the next time he sees Shion for consultation—it will be a hundred years later, so it will be later, and it will not be too late. It will be later than his current plan.
In fact, that night, Minos went to Aiagos to get what belonged to him.
"Postman fee." Aiagos said while tapping on the table.It was rumored in the underworld that some personal enmity between them was not groundless, but he just couldn't understand Minos' way of doing things, hiding all problems and not being honest.He still hates Minos, and his attitude is not much better, "Otherwise, I will find someone to dig your grave and sell all the funerary objects to England."
But Aiagos was just talking. Crete was annihilated quietly, leaving only a bunch of conjectures and legends, so that now people in the world do not recognize the existence of Minos, thinking that it is just a fabricated myth. legend.King Minos was just, wise, and lived a simple life. After his death, he was not buried with him. In this era when the Cretan civilization was not recognized by the world, digging it out was worth a bundle of firewood. This kind of loss-making business is not for Aiagos. will do.
"Hand it over, or go back to work in the underworld now." Minos said coldly.Anyway, to die is to return to the underworld. Radamantis got himself into the magic tower, and now the work of the three people is all on his head. Aiagos, a lazy guy, dares to negotiate terms with him. Squeezing people to death and taking them back to the underworld to work overtime is already the greatest kindness.
After being reminded by Minos, Aiagos remembered that this jihad was different from usual. Most of the underworld fighters entered the magic tower, and very few remained in the underworld. In addition, some time ago, several sectors were fighting , causing millions of deaths, the existing manpower in the underworld must be stretched. Aiagos said embarrassingly: "It seems that Lada is the smartest one. He can take 243 years of vacation." There is no such thing as brotherhood.
But seeing that Minos shared the work, Aiagos kindly gave Minos the branches transformed from the blood of the gods for free.
Minos, who got the things, turned around and returned to the trial court.The divine blood is of no use to Minos, and if Pisces hadn't given it to Aiagos, he wouldn't have made such a trip to get it.
But now that I have all of them, it would be a pity to throw them away. A plant that grows in the palm of one hand has seven leaves in total. Not to mention flowers, there is not even a bud. The vase that held the roses before is too deep. You can't even see the tip, Minos glanced around, and finally he could only keep it in the teacup.
It looks a bit like a pocket potted plant, the thorns have not yet grown on the thin branches, the leaves are also tender and green, and the tentacles are coiled on the petiole, like spores that have not yet opened. Minos gathered some strength to point A few tentacles stretched out and wrapped around his fingers, and after taking a few bites slowly, he curled up, looking full and sleepy.
This might extend the shelf life, Minos thought, it just so happens that he doesn’t have anything to do for entertainment, so it’s fine to keep it for fun.
Within a few days, there was a new topic in the underworld, and it was so convincing that Master Minos was raising his and Pisces' offspring alone. There are three evidences: it is not a special case for male gods to have children in the Three Realms, and their old opponent Athena is It popped out of Zeus's head; it is normal even if it is not human, Poseidon has a lot of non-human offspring; the underworld is not suitable for the growth of plants and the residence of land gods, but the tree in the hands of Lord Minos is not affected at all. The influence must have the blood of the underworld.So in less than a week, all the cases of going out were piled up on Minos' desk.
How short is this that even he was assigned a case?Minos, who was responsible for all the work of the Big Three, suddenly had the urge to blow up the Demon Tower.
Author has something to say: Jabofika: I don't think we've gotten to the point where I can give you my flowers.
