"Then you can treat me as a demon." The reindeer said to Herqiu like this, "I just ask you, do you want to revive them?"

Forgive that poor doctor Herqiu, he may just be The feeling of guilt in his heart bent his back, and he lost his mind, so he agreed with the reindeer almost without thinking, and he said: "As long as you can revive them... no matter what price I have to pay!"

" You don't need to have such a great psychological pressure... In fact, you should think more carefully before making a decision." The reindeer was slow but slightly gentle, "Because the death of the brothers is actually caused by me. Your responsibility."

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

reindeer didn't speak, it raised its antlers to look at Herqiu, and Heerqiu found that the reindeer's eyes were a little weird The purple color is not obvious. If He Erqiu hadn't observed it carefully, he might have missed this wonderful detail.

After a short silence, the reindeer told He Erqiu some facts: "The crystal stone in your hand was given to Amu and Axin by me." When the

reindeer said this, Herqiu immediately bowed his head and put it in his hand. Looking at the crystal stone in his hand.

When Menshak handed him this valuable-looking crystal stone, he also looked at the stone carefully. It looked like a work of art carved by a craftsman with superb skills, because it formed a perfectly symmetrical Each face of the polyhedron is smooth and flat, and it is engraved with densely packed unknown characters as small as rice grains.

It is translucent. When He Erqiu held it in front of his eyes, He Erqiu could see the reindeer not far away through this transparent crystal. Under the blurred refraction of the crystal stone, the reindeer appeared A kaleidoscope-like patchwork effect is created, and the fonts carved on the crystal stone seem to be carved on reindeer.

"So you gave this crystal to Amuahin and the others?" Herqiu took the crystal stone down and held it in his palm, frowning and staring at the reindeer, "Why? Is there anything unusual about this stone? Or Is it worth a lot? Can I buy a noble manor?"

"No, it's just a gift." The reindeer said slowly, "It's a gift from me, an outsider, to mankind. I try to let mankind understand my civilization. Therefore, this crystal stone contains the unique technology of our planet , it has scientific and technological achievements that are completely different from your human civilization... no, it is a world of difference."

"I thought it could help the two brothers, but after many years, when I learned your language, After learning about your civilization, I realized that I was wrong. It was extremely wrong. This technological achievement is not suitable for human beings, and it should not even appear in the human world. I think, before the mistakes are further aggravated, I must put It will be destroyed."

"But to destroy this crystal... I can't do it with my current ability, and there is no substance on the earth today that can destroy this crystal stone."

"Destroy...?" He Erqiu He was confused, and he didn't quite understand what the reindeer was talking about, which made him a little embarrassed.

What's more, the reindeer can speak human language, which is a thing that can be called the Arabian Nights. He Erqiu even felt that he was still dreaming. Maybe he hadn't woken up from the wine, and he was still drunk in the room of Amu and Axin. In front of the tomb, I fell into a deep sleep.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand now." The reindeer ignored Her Qiu's thoughts. It stepped on its hoof and approached Her Qiu step by step. It said, "You will understand later."

Although Her Qiu These days Qiu has been drinking heavily and doing nothing, but his vigilance has not diminished in the slightest. The approach of the reindeer made him overreact. He couldn't help but backed away as the reindeer approached, and asked nervously, "What do you want to do?

" I want to give you a mission." The

reindeer stared at Herqiu with its dark purple eyes, and there was a strange power in its eyes, and this force bound Herqiu, making Herqiu feel It was like being cast by a wizard to quickly imprison the spell, and there was no way to continue to retreat.

The reindeer said gently: "Please forgive me for being so abrupt, but the time required to leap through time and space is really too long, perhaps a hundred years or a thousand years is not enough, so before I find a weapon that can destroy the crystal stone and bring it back, I will I want you to protect this stone and prevent its power from spreading, causing disasters to more people."

"If you are willing to accept my conditions, then from now on, Heerqiu... from you, your descendants Future generations, regardless of men and women, you will have the power and responsibility to monitor and protect this crystal stone, the evil energy of the crystal stone will not pollute you and your descendants, and you will also have the ability to eliminate pollution."

"I am sorry to let You become such a 'guardian', which will cost you a great price, your present and future will be bound by the mission of the guardian, you will lose your freedom, and so will your descendants."

Herqiu subconsciously Swallowing his saliva, the depths of his heart are filled with two opposite emotions of bewilderment and enlightenment. Although he was overwhelmed by everything the reindeer said, he seemed to understand every word the reindeer said.

"So, as long as I do what you said... I can bring Amu and Axin back to life, right?" Since he couldn't fully understand, He Erqiu could only grasp the most important question.

However, on the most important issue, the reindeer shook his head at Herqiu: "My friend, I can't guarantee 100% to bring anyone back from the dead. Resurrection of the brother, and...that may be hundreds of years later."

"I understand." He Erqiu roughly understood the meaning of the reindeer, "that is to say, you have certain methods and chances to make Ah Mu and Ashin will come back to life hundreds of years later."

"Yes."

"Then what do I need to do? Just guard this stone? Or hide it somewhere?" He Er Qiu picked up the crystal stone in his hand.

The reindeer seemed to hesitate for a while, and looked at Herqiu with its head tilted: "Before I introduce the guardian's work to you in detail, I want to know if you are really ready? Because this will be a period of hundreds of years. If you don't have enough determination, patience, and sacrifice your consciousness, then you will not be able to complete the task."

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

"Actually, I don't know if you have this ability. These days, I only see that you have been 'borrowing away your sorrows' and confessing your mistakes in front of the grave." The

reindeer seemed to have a little purple eyes. Filled with curiosity-like emotion, it says: "I think you are sad, and this touches me...you may not understand, because I come from a different world than yours, where sadness is The thing is a kind of... strange existence."

Although the reindeer's statement was very obscure, Herqiu inexplicably understood what it wanted to express: "You mean...you have no feelings?"

"No, we are not There is no emotion, but in our world, people communicate through the spiritual level, and all brains are connected together. We have no secrets, no individuals, and no concepts such as family, society, and country. There is even...the concept of death does not exist."

He Erqiu was shocked by what the reindeer said, and he said in amazement: "The absence of death...does it mean that you can live forever? Just like...like gods? "

What I'm saying is: there is no concept of death." The reindeer emphasized the last two words. "The reason why there is no such concept is because we think death is not the end, and we don't have any fear of death."

"In our place, after people die, their spirits will join the network of everyone's spiritual connection, and after waiting for a period of time, they will be reborn."

"Perhaps this can be regarded as another kind of immortality." The reindeer was thinking Added a moment later.

At this time, Herqiu really understood the profound meaning of the reindeer saying that it "comes 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, a world beyond the imagination of the short-sighted village doctor.

He couldn't imagine what the reindeer was before he came to the earth and became a reindeer, and he was also unaware of the "mission" that the reindeer decided to entrust to him and the burden he was about to bear.

But He Erqiu finally became the "guardian" that the reindeer said, just for the hopeless resurrection of Amu and Ashin after hundreds or even thousands of years...and to eliminate the lingering pain in He Erqiu's heart guilt.

The latter may be more important to Herqiu, so he can't wait to do something, even if it is to accept a task from an unknown, human-speaking, deer-horned demon.

However, He Erqiu was not the only one who became the guardian.

After all, the mission that lasted for hundreds of years is really too long, and there is a great possibility that any accidents will occur during this long period and lead to bad consequences.

It may be that He Erqiu died suddenly, it may be that He Erqiu's descendants were cut off, or even He Erqiu changed his mind and decided to unilaterally abandon the mission because he felt that the crystal stone was cumbersome, or he decided to use the power of the crystal stone. Power to do something bad...like world domination?

It's not that they don't trust Herqiu, and the reindeer doesn't have the concept of "trust". It just entrusted Herqiu with a mission, a task.

As for whether to complete it or not, and how to complete it, it all depends on He Erqiu himself.

Because the reindeer only found out that it had made a mistake, and then tried to redeem or make up for this mistake. It has tried to do everything it can.

However, in order to prevent such a bad situation from happening, the reindeer added an extra line of defense.

This possibility cannot be denied. It has already planned for the worst in its heart. When it gets the weapon that can destroy the crystal stone and returns to the earth, the civilization of the earth may have been destroyed by this small stone. up.
