Unlimited Cycles of Death

"Then you should be a demon," reindeer said to Herqiu, "I just ask you, would you like to, and would you like to bring them back to life?"

Forgive the poor doctor, Herqiu. He may have just been bent by the guilt in his heart and lost his mind, so he almost agreed with the reindeer, saying, "As long as you can resurrect them ... whatever it takes me to pay! "

"You don't need to have such great psychological pressure ... In fact, you should consider it more carefully before you make a decision." The reindeer slowly seemed to be gentle, "Because the death of the brothers, there are actually my responsibility."

"Your responsibility?" Herqiu didn't quite understand. "What do you mean?"

The reindeer did not speak. It lifted its antler and looked at Herqiu. Herqiu found that the reindeer's eyes had a weird purple color, and the color was not obvious. If Herqiu had not observed it carefully, he might have missed this wonderful one. detail.

The reindeer told Herqiu some facts after a brief silence: "The crystal stone in your hand was given to Amu and Axin."

As the reindeer said so, Herqiu immediately lowered her head and looked at the crystal stone in her palm.

When Mensac handed him this seemingly valuable crystal stone, he also carefully looked at the stone. It looks like a piece of art carved by a certain superb craftsman because it forms a very perfect symmetry. Polyhedron, each face is smooth and flat, with unknown dense fonts carved on it like small grains of rice.

It is translucent. When Herqiu raised it in front of her eyes, Herqiu's sight could see the reindeer not far away through this transparent crystal. Under the refraction of the crystal stone, the reindeer appeared. With a patchwork effect like a kaleidoscope, the typeface carved on the crystal stone is as if carved on a reindeer.

"So you gave this crystal to Amuah letter to them?" Herqiu took the crystal stone down and pinched it in her palm, and frowned at the reindeer. "Why? Is there anything unusual with this stone? Or said Is it valuable? Can I buy a noble manor? "

"None, this is just a gift." The reindeer slowly said, "It is a gift from a foreigner to human beings. I try to make humans understand my civilization. Therefore, this crystal stone contains the unique technology of our planet. , It has a completely different human civilization ... No, it is a world-wide technological achievement. "

"I thought it could help the two brothers, but after many years passed, when I learned your language and understood your civilization. I found that I was wrong. The mistake was extremely outrageous. This technological achievement is not For humans, it shouldn't even appear in the human world at all. I think I must destroy it before it gets worse. "

"But to destroy this crystal ... I can't do it now, and there is nothing on earth to destroy this crystal stone."

"Destroy ...?" Heqiu could hear the clouds and fog, and he didn't quite understand what the reindeer was saying, which made him a little embarrassed.

Moreover, the reindeer actually speaks human language. This is a matter of heaven and earth. Herqiu even felt that he was still dreaming. Maybe his wine hadn't awoke yet. He was still drunk in Amu and Axin. In front of the tomb, he slept darkly.

"Now it doesn't matter if you don't understand it now." The reindeer ignored Huerqiu's thoughts. He stepped on his hooves and stepped closer to Huerqiu. He said, "You will understand later."

Although Hirqiu is addicted to alcohol these days, his alertness is undiminished. The reindeer's approach makes him overreact. He involuntarily retreats as the reindeer approaches, and asks nervously: "What do you want to do? ? "

"I want to give you a mission."

The reindeer stared at Herqiu with its dark purple eyes. There was a strange power in her eyes, and this power restrained Herqiu, making Herqiu feel like he was being cast by a wizard. The imprisoned curse can no longer continue to retreat.

The reindeer said mildly: "Please forgive me for being so abrupt, but the time required to leap into time and space is really too long. Maybe a century or a millennium is not enough, so before I find a weapon that can destroy the crystal stone and bring it back, I I want you to guard this stone and prevent its power from spreading, which will bring disaster to more people. "

"If you are willing to accept my terms, then from now on, Herqiu ... from you, your offspring, men and women, you will have the power and responsibility to monitor and protect this crystal stone. Evil energy won't pollute you and your children and grandchildren, and you'll get the ability to eliminate pollution. "

"I'm sorry to make you such a 'guardian', which will cost you a lot. Your present and future will be bound by the guardian's mission. You will lose your freedom, and so will your future generations. "

Herqiu swallowed subconsciously, and at the same time she was filled with two opposing feelings of daze and Mingwu. Although he was overwhelmed by everything the reindeer said, he seemed to understand every word of the reindeer.

"So, as long as I do what you say ..., Amu and Axin can be resurrected, right?" Since he couldn't fully understand it, Herqiu could only grasp the most important question.

However, on the most important issue, the reindeer shook his head at Hirqiu: "My friend, I can't guarantee 100% that anyone will be resurrected. I can only say that I have some ways and a certain chance to make this happen. The resurrection of the brothers, and ... that may be a few hundred years later. "

"I see." Herqiu roughly understood the meaning of the reindeer. "That is to say, you have a certain method and chance to bring Amu and Axin back to life after hundreds of years."

"Yes."

"Then what do I need to do? Just keep the stone alone? Or hide it somewhere?" Hurqiu held the crystal stone in his hand.

The reindeer seemed to hesitate for a moment, and it tilted its head to look at Hirchu: "Before I give you the work of the Guardian in detail, I want to know if you are really ready? Because it will be a period that will last for hundreds of years If you do n’t have enough determination, patience, and sacrifice your own consciousness, then you cannot complete the task. "

"But you still came to me, maybe you think I have that ability?" Hurchi guessed.

"Actually, I don't know if you have this ability. These days, I only see that you have been‘ borrowing wine to sorrow ’and confess your mistakes in front of the grave.”

The reindeer's slightly purple eyes seemed to be filled with curiosity-like emotions. It said, "I think you are sad, and this touches me ... you may not understand because I come from a world different from yours , In my world, sadness is a kind of ... strange existence. "

Although the reindeer's statement is obscure, Herqiu inexplicably understood what it meant: "You mean ... you have no feelings?"

"No, we are not without emotions. It is just that in our world, people communicate through spiritual levels. All people's brains are connected. We have no secrets, no individuals, no family, The concepts of society, the state, and even ... there is no such thing as death. "

Helqiu was shocked by the reindeer's words, and he was startled: "There is no death ... means you can live forever? Like ... just like God?"

"I mean: there is no concept of death." The reindeer emphasized the last two words. "The reason why this concept does not exist is because we believe that death is not the end, and we have no fear of death."

"In our case, when people die, their spirit will join the spiritually connected network of all people, and after waiting for a while, they will be reborn."

"Maybe this is an alternative kind of eternal life." The reindeer added after thinking for a while.

It was only at this time that Herqiu really understood the profound meaning of the reindeer saying that it was "from another world."

Because from the simple words of the reindeer, he felt a world and life form completely different from the earth and human beings.

It was the 172x era, a world where the short-sighted village doctors could never imagine.

He couldn't imagine what this reindeer was before he came to earth and became a reindeer, and he was unaware of the "mission" entrusted to him by the reindeer and the burden he was about to bear.

But Hurqiu finally became what the reindeer called the "guardian", just for the sake of Amu and Axin's hope for a slim resurrection after hundreds or even thousands of years ... Guilt.

The latter may be even more important to Hirch, so he can't wait to do something, even if he accepts a task of unknown origin, who can talk, and antlers.

However, it wasn't just Herqiu who became the guardian.

After all, the task that lasts for hundreds of years is really too long, and there is a great possibility that any accident will occur and the consequences will be bad.

It may be that Herqiu died suddenly, it may be that her descendants were cut off, or even Herqiu changed her mind and felt that the crystal stone was very cumbersome and decided to give up the task unilaterally, or he decided to use the crystal stone. Power to do something bad ... like dominating the world?

It is not that he does not trust Herqiu. Moreover, the reindeer does not have the concept of "trust." It just confers on Herqiu a mission and a task.

As for the incompleteness, how to complete it depends on Herqiu himself.

Because the reindeer just found that it made a mistake, and then tried to redeem or make up for it, it has tried to do everything it can. As for whether humans are willing to accept these things that it makes up, it is humanity's own thing.

However, the reindeer did a good job in order to prevent this bad situation, and added an extra line of defense.

It doesn't deny this possibility, it already had the worst plan in its heart. When it got the weapon that can destroy the crystal stone and returned to the earth, the civilization of the earth may have been destroyed by this little stone. Already.
