To Four Thousand Years Later

Chapter 99: fourth demon

Solomon is really old.

Ten years passed. The remaining five years of Solomon's lifespan had already been exhausted, but he didn't want to die yet—whether it was his eldest son in Egypt or his children in Israel had just grown up, and he hadn't taught him yet. Whether it is the sewer system, or farmland reform, the promotion of new irrigation devices, long-distance commerce with countries across the sea, etc., there are still many things he has not done. Originally, he thought five years was enough time, but the closer he got to the final deadline, Solomon felt that he had more and more work to do.

Want to work longer hours.

Therefore, with the help of Baimon, Solomon survived for another seven years after the end of his life span.

However, due to physical decline, his ability to work has dropped significantly. After his lifespan was exhausted, his eyes, which were burning like flames, also went out.

Although he was very unwilling, Solomon could only let go of various affairs step by step to others. If it were in an ordinary country, something big would happen. But because Solomon's prestige is really too high, the fact that he is still alive is enough to completely calm the hearts of the people and suppress all forces in the Three Kingdoms. Now his job is to answer questions.

Every year, the small countries in the surrounding areas will send people, even the king himself, to offer a large amount of gold and silver treasures to King Solomon, and allow him to ask King Solomon one to three according to its value, although generally he only gives "yes" Or a simple answer of "no". But if he encounters a question of interest, he will also answer it in detail.

All of Solomon's answers so far don't have any mistakes. Having just sent away an envoy from a small country in Africa who came to ask questions, Solomon lay on his throne, his eyes narrowed, and he fell into a sleep. As he grew older, the time of sleep became more and more like that of King David back then. Half asleep, half awake, Solomon saw some kind of vision.

As the sun descends into the world

"The sky is full of brilliance, just like the Holy Spirit showing power; only a thousand suns can compete with it." Solomon murmured a verse that he seemed to have heard from somewhere before.

"Father, father.

But before he could think deeply, a childish voice sounded from beside Solomon. wake him up from his dream.

Solomon opened his eyes with difficulty. Show a peaceful and kind smile.

He asked in an old and peaceful voice: "What's the matter, Abaddon?" In front of Solomon was a red dragon the size of a calf, but with seven heads. It rubbed against Solomon's leg excitedly like a puppy, and kissed the hand of the gourd. This is the son Yastalu gave birth to him, a young red dragon. Solomon named him Abaddon. It means "he will kill". certainly. Others in Jerusalem did not know he was Solomon's son. It is only because Solomon's wisdom transcends the limit of human beings, even the giant dragon in the abyss let his children come to King Solomon to learn wisdom.

"Father I hear you talking about the sun.

Yanen's voice came out of the red dragon's mouth: "What is that?"

"Just like me?"

Ok. Just like you. "

Solomon was half lying on the throne, and said with a low smile, "What do you think of me, Abaddon?"

"Huh? How about what?" The young dragon tilted five heads in doubt, the remaining one was talking, and the other was focusing on Solomon's finger.

Solomon smiled kindly: "As a father, what do you think of me?

"You love me. You love Brother Solomon too." The young dragon said in a childish voice.

"So, what do you think of me as a king?"

I have no idea.

"But I see everyone is smiling and chanting your name every day. So you must be as powerful as a thousand suns.

"I don't want to be so powerful!" Solomon smiled helplessly: "I'm just a human being. "

"Humanity?

"Human beings are mortal. Right, Abaddon. Solomon's peaceful speaker. His face has long since become emaciated, and his skin has lost its elasticity and is full of wrinkles. Just by saying these few words, Solomon has already felt When it came to fatigue. Abaddon was a little restless. Solomon just chuckled and said in a low voice: "Baal. "

"I'm here, Solomon. What's the matter?" She looked at Solomon with some concern: "Are you cold again?"

"No, no.

Solomon whispered in a very slow tone, "Has this year's census been completed?"

"Already done.

"And what about my mother Bathsheba's funeral?"

"The progress is being supervised by Baimon, and his character is very rigorous, so it should be completed very well.

Baal said softly: "It was carried out according to the highest standard. Don't worry, and don't think too much about Bathsheba's natural death. You just need to rest." Solomon nodded, and then asked slowly: "The priest Zadok?" Old guy, is he dying too? A new High Priest came to greet me yesterday.

"He should be able to live for a while longer. But he already has a qualified successor, so he has passed on the throne. Marshal Binaya is still on the eastern border, and he should pass on the throne when he comes back. He chose The successor is Birds, the honest and brave young man you praised. Baal explained: "There are also public toilets and sewers, which have also begun to be officially used. The trade in Tire has achieved good results. These will be written in the report after the autumn. Solomon, you should be able to see it in two months.

"Oh, it's all done."

Solomon nodded, remained silent for a while, and then said, "When Baimon comes back, tell them to come and look for me. You also get up." Baal asked suspiciously, "Who are they?" "

"It's all the demon gods. And little Solomon." Solomon said slowly.

Hearing this, Baal's complexion suddenly changed. She hesitated for a while and made up her mind: "Then wait a moment.

The next moment, her body was lost in the fire.

Following several consecutive flashes, in less than half a minute, she dragged everyone and appeared in front of Solomon.

At first, they complained about Baal's rough way of doing things. But they looked at each other. When they realized who the people around them were, they all fell silent.

"grown ups?'

Yastaru said with some anxiety: "Is it time?" His eyes flicked across the handsome boy who was about eight or nine years old in front of him, and the corners of his mouth raised, beckoning to him.

"Come on, little Solo."

Solomon said calmly: "My child, you must remember. You must follow your father's teachings, do what is just, speak wise words, be a king of benevolence and righteousness, and respect integrity." Father

The teenager blinked blankly.

"Do you remember?" Solomon just asked calmly. As if realizing something, the boy suddenly burst into tears.

Holding back his tears, he nodded vigorously. Solomon smiled, patted his shoulder with difficulty with his trembling and thin hands, and said in a low voice: "Come on. You can go play with Abaddon first. Little Solomon looked at his old father, and led the red dragon slowly. Walking towards the door. Before going out, he glanced back at his father for the last time.

The old and peaceful man, who always spoke softly, and the two children left Solomon's temple.

"I'm going to fulfill the contract with you, Baal." Solomon looked at Baal peacefully: "I should have saved a day's life with you, take it out.

Baal was silent for a while, then took a bronze box from the fire. Inside was a white, slender severed finger—the little finger Solomon had cut off when he was still young. Then he asked Stalu to restore his finger to its original shape. The little finger was specially treated by Baal, and it stored Solomon's vitality for a day. If not, after Solomon's vitality was exhausted, he would not be able to make a contract with the Demon God.

Solomon looked at Yastaru, smiled and stretched out his right hand. Yastaru held Solomon's hand silently, and showed a gentle and peaceful smile to Solomon. Solomon then put his left hand on the table and closed his eyes. Solomon cut off his little finger with the dagger that he carried, and it immediately ignited and burned to ashes in the air. Baal placed the young finger on Solomon's severed finger, and Yastaru's power acted to heal the finger.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, that finger slowly became shriveled and aged.

That is, the scorching flame formed by burning life. He took a deep breath and praised: "It feels so good to be full of energy.

The old and corrupt aura on Solomon's body completely dissipated. As soon as he opened his eyes, invisible flames and oppressive force spread out to the surroundings. After being squeezed for several years, not only did his sense of existence not weaken in the slightest, but it became even more dazzling. His words became powerful and solemn again: "I have come to fulfill my promise, Baal. After ten years, I have always reserved the fourth position for you.

"I hope you will stay forever. Yasta Green should be able to plunder the life force from ordinary people to give you."

Baal looked at Solomon complicatedly. Take back the warmed right hand from Yastaru.

"Who do you think I am? I'm Solomon! Solomon laughed out loud: "If I'm greedy for infinite life, then I'm not me! "

His voice was pale, but sonorous and powerful, beyond doubt. Baal looked at him, and suddenly laughed.

Then, she didn't hesitate anymore, just bowed her head lightly and kissed Solomon's ring.

At that moment, a strong radiance overflowed from Solomon's body.
