Chapter 179: Book of Gods (5)

Tang Cuo seldom faced such a situation.
Time passed by one minute and one second, and as I saw the sky getting closer and closer, a sense of crisis strangled his mind. He frowned deeply, thinking like a clockwork machine, thinking all the time.
His figure also walked from the end of the library to the end, and back from the end, walked every corner, picked up every book on his side, all methods have been used, magic, reasoning , But it doesn't work.
Since the avenue does not work, it can only open up new paths.
Tangcuo gave up decisively. Thinking a little bit, he took out an item from his equipment bar, and the bright moonlight traced its shape-it was a small white flower resembling a daisy.
【Nightgrass】The grass that grows near the Dragon's Lair of Time has the most plain little white flowers on the mainland of Sicily. A piece of grass represents a dream, like a match in the hands of a little girl. Eat it and you can dream about everything you want to have.
This is the reward of the previous copy. This is the material for making equipment, but since it is a new way, you have to change the usage. For example, eat it.
Tang Cuo held the parts of the puppet with Herodot's mark in one hand, and tucked the nightmare into his mouth with one hand. The grass was really unpalatable. Tang Chuo was cheekless and expressionless, but he had to hold back.
"Goo." He swallowed the grass hard, closed his eyes, and kept depicting the scene he wanted to see in his heart.
The puppet part is a trigger item. With this item in place, Tangcuo feels that there is a certain chance that the nightmare can be used to restore the pictures related to Herodotus and Polly.
Waiting for ten seconds, Tang Cuo suddenly heard the faint voice from his ear, and immediately opened his eyes.
A white-bearded old man suddenly appeared in his sight, and the library in front of him also became intact, but it was slightly different from what Tang Cuo saw in the daytime.
The sunlight penetrated through the window, and Tang Cuo turned to look, but did not feel dazzling. He seems to be wrapped in a transparent film. Time has given this film a unique filter, which can be seen at a glance. This is what happened in the past.
Herodotus was tinkering with his puppets in the corner of the second floor of the library. Several bookshelves were in a corner, isolating this small place to ensure that no one could disturb him.
Look closely, the doll in his hand is Polly. Polly was still in an unfinished state, with the lid of his chest wide open, and Herodotus kneeling on the ground with a small screwdriver the parts of his heart. But after all the parts were put in place, Herodotus looked at the left with his beard, and was still not satisfied, so he took a chisel again and began to repair the shape of Polly's heart.
Polly's heart is also a gem, red, the same color as the human heart. Herodotus knelt down on the ground for a long time, and he changed one by one, and looked attentively.
As soon as the picture changed, Polly stood up and was ready to blink.
Herodotus was still kneeling on the ground, polishing his ankles. It was a pair of lovely children's feet, and each toe was rounded and lovely. If you look closely, you can still see the pale blue blood vessels hidden under the skin.
For a long time, Herodotus stood up and let out a long breath. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat beads on his forehead, but as soon as he lifted his hand, the whole person shook, his face pale and almost fell to the ground.
Polly blinked and looked at him ignorantly.
Herodotus gasped for a while while holding his heart, and this stabilized slightly. Wiping away the beads of sweat, he patted Polly's shoulders lovingly and said, "Good boy, don't be afraid."
Polly tilted his head and said nothing. It looked like a cute child of Yuxue, but he didn't have much intelligence after all.
A little regret appeared in Herodotus' eyes, but soon he concealed the regret, and took Polly's hand to take him to the table and sit down.
"Poly, my child, please forgive me for not being able to give you a pair of eyes like your brother. The dragon has disappeared from the Sicilian continent for a long time, even if I set off to find it immediately, I don’t have enough time to find it again. A pair of eyes. But don’t be afraid, your brother will take good care of you. His name is Aesop, he is the prince of this country."
"Prince?" Polly puzzled.
"The child of the old king is dead, and the queen is overly worried. They need a healthy child who will not get sick." When he said this, there was a deep sorrow in the eyes of Herodotus. With a bitter smile, he shook his head. "I tell you what to do."
The picture changed again, and Polly failed before being sent out.
Herodotus opened his chest and knelt down on the ground wearing thick glasses for several hours before finally finding a slight error in the magic pattern. Looking closer, his hair is whiter than before, and his back is more rickety.
When Polly opened his eyes again and shouted his "father" in an incomprehensible way, Herodotus rubbed his hair, fortunately in his eyes, "Fortunately, okay..."
Polly laughed, showing a professional smile that was as good as the day Tang Tangcuo saw, "I'm fine."
Herodotus froze for a long time and sighed.
He didn’t make any more changes, just tremblingly opened the small box that he carried with him, took out a bow tie and put it on for him, saying, "Tomorrow your brother will come. Polly, in this world, maybe only you can understand Your brother's situation. He is a good boy, and so are you. If your father is gone, you will always be with your brother, don't let him be alone, you know?"
Polly nodded, and just wanted to speak, he saw a tear fall on his hand. He looked down, his big eyes full of doubts about the transparent liquid.
He looked up, facing the eyes that Herodotus had hoped for, "Poly, you want to protect your brother, you know?"
This time Polly did not answer immediately. He hesitated for a second before focusing on his head. He still smiled, but there seemed to be a look in his eyes, "Poly knew that Polly would protect his brother."
The picture gradually faded, but Tangcuo had not seen the picture he wanted to see, so he swallowed a nightmare decisively again.
It's just that you can't take too much of this thing. When you swallowed the second nightmare, Tangcuo's brain swelled and rubbed his temples for several minutes before the scene before him gradually solidified.
Herodotus wanted to surprise Aesop, so he did not tell him that Polly existed. But before the day when Aesop came, Polly was captured.
He seemed to be no different from ordinary people, and his body was not as stiff as Tang Coo saw, but the person who captured him broke his identity and forced him to ask about Aesop.
They asked Polly to admit that Aesop was also a puppet.
A doll is not worthy of being His Royal Highness, even if this prince is just a puppet.
Polly refused to admit that he repeated only one sentence: "Poly doesn't know anything, Polly is just Polly."
So the angry kidnapper dismantled him, and the parts were scattered all over the ground. Even the heart carefully carved by Herodotus was kicked into the dust in the corner.
The precision gear clicked, stuck, and could no longer run.
Polly's torn body fell to the ground, with empty eyes, and no sound.
The kidnapper wiped his fingers with a white handkerchief, and then threw it on the ground disgustingly, saying, "It's probably a waste product. I won't even say anything. It's an effort."
The companions were also full of annoyance, "We knew that Herodotus had a name, so we shouldn't put our hopes here. I think that Aesop might be the prince who has always been raised in the manor, after all, the idols look like People can’t be so realistic. It’s incredible to use a puppet as the crown prince."
During the chatter between the two, the screen shifted to Aesop.
Polly has been rescued, but Herodotus is also dead. He lay peacefully in the coffin, unable to see whether it was sick or killed.
In short, it is dead.
Aesop stood beside the coffin and watched deeply. Even as a puppet, Tang Cuo still saw a trace of haggard and anger on him.
Yes, I still don’t understand Tang Tso here-Aesop is a personal doll.
This time the picture jumped fast, Tangcuo had no time to see Aesop having more reactions, and the picture changed again, becoming Aesop buried in front of the workbench to repair Polly.
When Polly's parts came back one by one and opened his eyes again, Tangcuo knew he had become different.
The slightly stiff walking posture and overly stylized smile are exactly the same as the Polly Tang Tang saw in the daytime.
Aesop was dissatisfied and changed it over and over again, not knowing how much time was spent. But maybe it was because he did not have the talent and experience like Herodotus, no matter how he changed, Polly was the same.
No matter how he asked, Polly would only answer: "Poly doesn't know anything, Polly is just Polly."
Aesop, from disappointment to despair to anger, will always face a smiling face. He eventually walked away, and Polly was left in the library by him, instead of guarding Herodotus, the "soul treasury" that embodies human wisdom.
Day after day, Polly ushered in here. Everyone can see that he is a puppet, and everyone knows that he is the legacy of the puppet master Herodotus, so his life is not bad.
But Polly always looked at the ceiling of the library in a daze, he felt like he had forgotten something.
The picture came to an abrupt end, revealing the truth in front of Tang Cuo.
He looked up at the ceiling in the same way as Polly. The mysterious star chart was not damaged by the battle of the library. It was still bright and full of mystery.
Suddenly, Tangcuo was gleaming, and he wanted to know where the book was hidden.
At the same time, Aesop had somehow changed into a pure gold armchair with a red velvet cushion and sat down. He not only sat, but also drank milk tea, his legs overlapped like a gentleman, so he looked at Jin Cheng hanging from the tower, saying, "The specialty of the Kingdom of Flowers, you are probably in the Roger Reid with Theodore. I have drunk at home and it tastes very good."
Jin Cheng: "The milk tea in the Kingdom of Hundred Flowers is still better made by old William."
"I appreciate your calmness that you can still joke with when you die." Aesop smiled, and Yu Guang glanced at the huge clock on the outer wall of the castle in the puppet kingdom, saying: "In the past For a long time, I think Theodore won't find you anymore."
Jin Cheng: "That is not necessarily the case, we are stronger than Jin."
"Ding!"
The system that has been silent for a long time finally gave Jin Cheng an ooc warning.
Jin Cheng did not take it seriously, and he was right. Are Theodore and Lancelot harder than Kim? Don't look down on brotherhood, it is harder than gold and harder than iron.
Aesop thought his words were weird, but he liked Lancelot's irregularities and accepted it well.
"Maybe, maybe he will find you eventually. Even I have to say that Theodore perfectly inherited the integrity and bravery of the White Knight family. Such a young knight will naturally not abandon his friends. But I rushed Time, children, I have no time to accompany you to continue playing games here." Aesop said, putting down the tea cup and standing up.
Jin Cheng felt awkward in his heart and remained calm on his face. He dealt with him: "Are you going to Yorkshire?"
Aesop picked up the black umbrella set aside, "Yeah."
Jin Cheng: "Will you do anything with Edwin?"
Aesop smiled, raised the tip of his umbrella and pointed at Jin Cheng. "It's useless to delay time, the game is over--"
As soon as the voice fell, the tip of the umbrella gathered magical light.
Jin Cheng did not know well, so he was prepared. The rope behind him had been cut with a dagger taken out from the equipment bar, and now it was purely that he was holding the rope and hanging there, covering his eyes and ears.
On the occasion of a sudden attack, "knock, knock", the sky suddenly heard the knock on the door.
"Huh?" Aesop could not help raising his head, the magical light of the umbrella tip suddenly dispersed.
Jin Cheng also temporarily stopped the big preparation and looked up. I saw a figure rising from the sky on the high blue sky. The fierce gust of wind blew up his clothes, blowing the familiar black windbreaker like Dapeng.
It's really cool.
"I won." Jin Cheng looked at Aesop, generously changing from a tied posture to a one-handed pull on the rope, slamming on the tower wall, and jumping down from the wind.
Boyfriend is here, he can no longer be by embarrassment, which is not conducive to image building and the long-term development of love.
"Bang, bang!"
Tang Cuo and Jin Cheng landed one after the other, because the impulsive force of the fall was too strong, and the square was smashed into a big pit. In the smoke, Tang Cuo turned to look at Jin Cheng, who was five meters away, and said, "You are here."
Jin Cheng spread his hand, "I am not here, waiting for you to rescue me."
Tang Cuo: "."
Aesop saw no one else flirting in front of him, and the umbrella tip raised again, saying, "One game is over, it's time to start another killing game."
Jin Cheng raised an eyebrow: "You didn't say that just now."
"Don't you forget my name?" Aesop raised her lips, and fringed earrings looked particularly shiny in the sunlight. "Everyone calls me, Aesop the rebel. You believe me, you are a complete fool." "
"Wait." Tang Cuo said suddenly.
Aesop looked away, but he didn't mind listening to what the knight could say. Anyway, Roger Reed couldn't come back as a savior this time, he had enough time to play games with them.
No, it's not enough. He was in a hurry, three minutes was enough.
Tang Cuo said: "You have a younger brother."
Aesop: "?"
what did you say?
