Chapter 163: The Second Day

Chapter 163 The next day

The second floor is filled with mist, and there is an intoxicating fragrance floating in the mist. Don’t think wrongly, this is not the smell of the nectar in the wine glasses of the nobles; it is the tulip incense placed in the brass water tank by Rust.

taste.

They were dozens of white tulips in full bloom. Oh, if you look closely, you will see that these lifelike tulips are not flowers growing in the water at all!

But it is so white and fragrant!

In fact, its emerald green branches are made of a soft aluminum alloy material with a layer of green paint painted on the outside, making them look just like the stems of a plant.

However, the brightly blooming tulip flower at the top, with its few white petals wrapping the stamens inside, is a special aromatic compound that can stimulate a unique fragrance when exposed to water and diffuse in the air on a large scale.

In this fragrance, people feel as if they are in spring flowers; they let this fragrance wander around in the huge church.

Some of the nobles closed their eyes to meditate, some were melancholy, some were dizzy, some drank glass after glass, but inevitably some ate bowl after bowl.

Jie Lexi added chips to her sorrow one bite after another, complaining faintly about "why" and "why".

Mala Maodan took the initiative and used a nonsense combo that instantly stunned Luo Luo's mind and almost knocked off Luo Luo's two front teeth.

Jie Lexian turned a blind eye to this.

It's just a small fight between servants, and she won't pay any attention to it.

It's emo time, and her mission is to emo to her heart's content.

How can I be a qualified biped if I don’t emo in the middle of the night?

Radish Zhongliu glared fiercely at Mala Maodan, a radish and a tree stump, and the tension between the two was tense.

Carrot's yellow eyes seemed to be about to jump out of their sockets and hit the wooden stake.

The latter is still elated.

There is a saying, Mala Maodan is quite confident in his language talent. Look, what can Luobei, who is tall but not brainy, do with him? Isn’t this a sure thing?

The second floor is in dire straits, and the hall is also in dire straits.

Ye Zhaoling simply didn't know whether the thing in front of him was a clam or a crab.

As the saying goes, if everyone takes a step back, the sky will be brighter. She was willing to let go of her past and let this stupid river crab loose its grip, but it still held her tightly and wouldn't let go?!

This guy has no martial ethics!

Old Mushroom knocked on the table to signal everyone to quiet down.

"The second day has begun, little saplings! You have to work hard."

"The first one I'd like to invite is Lin Yikai."

Lin Yikai responded calmly.

Ye Zhaoling heard a male voice ask in a very gloomy tone: "How many silver coins did you exchange these nails for?"

This is the voice of Li Du. His whole person is like a slender mushroom growing in a dark cave. His words are gloomy and his face is gloomy. In short, he always gives people an uncomfortable sensory experience.

Lin Yikai: "14."

Everyone who has answered a round of questions is obviously very comfortable and can think and answer in a very short time.

"Ahem, next one." Mushroom coughed a few times.

"How many silver coins did you exchange these nails for?"

A charming female voice belonged to Miss Wu.

Liu Haiyang: "9."

However, after hearing Liu Haiyang's answer, Lin Yikai's calm expression at the beginning gradually changed into an expression that was unclear.

It was Wang Dacheng's turn to take questions.

Jin Dafu stroked his mustache and said leisurely: "Will you give up the wealth you have worked so hard to get?"

Wang Dacheng: "No."

Li Du asked Liu Meili.

"If you gave everything, within a limited time, you could completely replace the person you are jealous of, would you be willing?"

"……willing."

Zhen Di looked at Rensuke Shirakawa and asked: "If you are destined to fail, will you do it again?"

Rensuke Shirakawa did not hesitate: "Yes."

Wu Meili asked Wan Yuanlai: "Do you have feelings for your girlfriend?"

Wan Yuanlai didn't even blink and said calmly: "No."

This sentence was naturally insignificant in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of another person involved, it made her look as if she had been struck by lightning, and her face suddenly turned pale.

Qu Youyou looked at this man in disbelief. She had been sincere to him and really wanted to stay with him forever...

Now this man's familiar face has quietly changed beyond recognition.

Qu Youyou lowered her head in embarrassment. After all, she was blind, thinking that there was real love between them.

The problems are still going on, but there is a heartbroken person in this gentle night.

Zhen Di asked Xie Dongdong: "What will you do when you finally realize that you have got nothing of what you really want?"

Xie Dongdong thought for a while, shook his head slightly, and with a touch of candlelight on his handsome face, he said with great certainty: "Kill myself."

Wu Meili asked Qu Youyou: "You treat love as a panacea, and love treats you as a punching bag. If you were given a choice, would you run away from it, or would you cheer up and strike hard?"

"Punch hard." Qu Youyou's voice hinted at a storm.

Zhendi asked Zhang Dazhi: "Do you think you are an honest person?"

Zhang Dazhi was startled by such a boring question and nodded honestly: "Yes."

Knife Butcher asked Li Xuanyi: "Do you have any regrets?"

Li Xuanyi was silent for a while, shook his head and said, "No."

Jin Dafu asked Ye Zhaoling: "What do you think of Frankenstein? In other words, he created a monster. Do you think what he did was right or wrong?"

Ye Zhaoling was stunned.

Frankenstein is the protagonist in a novel written by Mary Shelley, the mother of science fiction.

He is a biologist passionate about the origin of life.

He tried to conquer death and create a new life.

So he started this research in his laboratory. Many years later, he discovered the secret to creating life——

That is to use corpses to create new creatures.

Assembling countless corpses together by sewing them together, people may think this is a fantasy, but if it happens in a novel, anything is possible.

That's right, after working day and night, Frankenstein succeeded. He successfully used the remains of the corpses to splice them into a huge humanoid monster that was two and a half meters tall.

But when the monster opened his eyes and staggered toward him, Frankenstein was so frightened that he ran away.

Ye Zhaoling recalled this and opened his mouth hesitantly, but still answered the question.

"wrong."

As for what was wrong? She didn't quite understand.

Frankenstein broke away from human thinking and used the body parts of the dead to splice into a huge monster. He created the unknown.

This is wrong.

He should have imagined any situation that was about to happen before the monster was born, instead of running away when the monster opened its eyes and walked towards him.

It is something he created, and he should be responsible for it.

The monster is not just a monster, but Frankenstein, the human being who created it, did not realize this. He just regarded it as a terrible thing and abandoned it impatiently.

When the monster discovered that it was the only alien in the world, it had already seen humans' prejudice against itself and could be trampled on by indifferent humans. At that time, it had learned human language and possessed human emotions.

It is very sad.

Later, it met Frankenstein, the man who created it. It told Frankenstein its desire, hoping to have a member of the opposite sex to accompany it and start a family.

Frankenstein agreed to this request, but finally gave up on making a female companion for him, because when the two monsters were together, more and more monsters would breed, and the consequences would be disastrous.

As a result, he was unable to shoulder his responsibilities to the monster. This indirectly led to the monster hating him extremely and killing the people he cherished, making him feel the same pain as himself.

It was a mistake from the beginning.
