Chapter 162: The Feast of the End of the Conference
Gift?
I had some surprises at first. Today is obviously Mann’s birthday, so why did he give him a gift?
But Mann did not make her think too much. He walked to Chu, pulled her, and let her sit on a sofa, which faced the window. Through the window, you can see the city of merchants at this moment. Fireworks illuminated the night sky, lights connected to the streets, and people celebrated, as if this banquet would never end.
Mann stood behind Chu with a smile, holding his hands on the back of the sofa.
"What do you think? Our city."
When I first looked at the scene outside the window, it was really beautiful. The people at the banquet smiled and enjoyed the feast in front of me, as if all the sins at this moment had nothing to do with them.
But because of this, it did not belong here at the beginning.
"This is your city." Chu said calmly.
"You have become the richest person, and I should leave."
She has fulfilled the wish of the child who picked up gold coins and become the richest person on the continent. She has also fulfilled his greed.
"That's it..."
Behind Chu, Mann was silent, but for a while, he smiled again and faced the window.
"Do you still remember that we promised at the beginning that we earned half of everything."
The boy touched his pocket and took out a transparent round gem from it. In the gem, you could see the piles of gold coins like mountains.
This is a space gem, which has the largest storage space among all space props, and each one is priceless.
Mann put the transparent gem at Chu's hand.
"This is the half of your existence here, and then......"
He said, then took out a gold coin from his arms and placed it next to the gem.
"Now you are the richest person on the mainland, stay here."
He lowered his eyes and did not go to see Chu. He hoped Chu could accept his gift, but he might have guessed what Chu's answer was.
"After taking away what we agreed on, I will leave. Apart from that, you should also know that I can't take anything away."
"But." Chu stood up from the sofa and did not look at the city outside the window. Instead, he looked at Mann behind him, smiled, and reached out to put his hand on his face and patted him.
"You look pretty handsome when you keep your promise, you've grown up."
Mann lowered his eyes silently. He knew that he would say this for the first time, but what he wanted to hear was not these.
"Bang!"
Outside the window, the biggest fireworks bloomed, and the crimson light spread out, illuminating the Merchant City. This scene was like the celebration passed by at the beginning of their journey.
Mann still remembers that at that time he sat on Jill's shoulder and saw many people smiling and looking up at the fireworks in the sky. Only Chu, standing in the crowd with his head down.
What a pity. He thought at that time that Chu missed such beautiful fireworks. Next time, he must remind Chu to watch them carefully.
Unfortunately, this time I missed the most beautiful one.
In the room, the black mist dispersed, isolating all sounds. There was no sound of fireworks, laughter, and singing. The room was so quiet that it was so quiet that it could not be heard or seen. In the world in front of me, it seemed that only the thick black mist was surging.
At this time, Mann finally realized his first feeling for the world for the first time. The black fog obscured his vision, closed his mouth and tongue, and blocked all his perceptions of the outside world. The cold feeling made his hands and feet numb.
He was panicked and powerless, fearful but unable to speak.
Until the black mist surged, it pulled out of his body and rushed to the human form in front of him, and all the mist was absorbed by her.
It was probably a long time later, and the silence passed.
Mann gradually saw the world in front of him clearly, and the light was restored outside. He heard the sound of celebration again, and the fireworks were still blooming.
At this time, he realized that Chu had left quietly and could no longer see her anywhere, as if she had never been there, only a string of black bracelets fell to the ground.
Mann took two steps back dejectedly and sat in his seat powerlessly.
He looked at his hand, where there were the gold coins he had just prepared for Chu.
He took the gold coins and looked at them in his palm. After a long time, he closed his eyes and smiled bitterly.
"So, you can't buy everything, either."
The banquet continued, people called the boy's name, and the whole continent celebrated him, celebrated him, and realized his greed.
······
When she returned to the wasteland, she first found that she was not in a wasteland, but a pool.
She was tied with her hands and fell horizontally beside the pool. She quickly realized that this was the place to punish the sin of greed.
Soon, the punishment began. I felt thirst at first, as if the fire was burning in her throat. She seemed to feel smoke coming from her mouth. The strong stinging sensation made her want to shout, but she couldn't say a word.
She wanted to drink a sip of water because she poured it next to the pool water. The cold pool water was only about five centimeters away from her mouth. This distance could be reached as long as she moved her mouth hard, and she could even smell the refreshing coolness.
So, Chu lowered his head and wanted to drink a sip of the water from the pool, but when her mouth approached the water from the pool, the water from the pool slowly retreated and was still at her mouth, but she just couldn't drink it.
Chu raised his head weakly, and the pool water gradually rose back to its original position.
In this way, Chu was tied up with his hands and feet and fell to the edge of the pool. When she couldn't bear to drink water, the pool water would retreat, and when she gave up, it would rise back.
The unbearable thirst torture her, but she couldn't reach the pool water that was so close to her.
This is the punishment of greed, which makes you never get what you want, forcing people to go crazy.
In hell, Mamen opened his eyes.
The sins it left to Mann were taken to the apostle wasteland as it wished.
This allows it to sense what state it is now.
"Her punishment has begun, this time it is a greedy punishment." Mamen stood his head, sat obliquely in a seat at a table, and said to the other people beside the table.
There were six other people sitting by the long table. They looked different, but they had one thing in common: they were all demons.
"Haha." One of them covered his mouth and said, "What is the punishment of greed? Can you tell me about it?"
Mamen glanced at his mouth and didn't answer. This was one of the few memories he didn't want to recall, and he promised that he didn't want to bear the second time.
"You said, will she fall as depraved as we do, or will she be forgiven?" another man asked lightly.
"Who knows." Belfinger lay lazily on the table, shaking its sharp tail.
