Chapter 112 One Thousand and One
......
[The government officials listened to Jin Luoyin's words in amazement, their minds full of thoughts: No wonder Zhu Qing's formation was found by Jin Luoyin.
He said why such an important formation fell into Jin Luoyin's hands. Maybe he threw it to Jin Luoyin on purpose!
Otherwise, how could it be that just as the Moon Goddess figured out that she and Jin Luoyin had a relationship, Jin Luoyin found a way to imprison her?
God of Light, oh God of Light, in order to make everyone believe in the fortune-telling of the Moon Goddess, you drove his Tengu almost to death, and why are you taking him to task now?
Fu Fang was extremely angry, but he had fallen into the hands of Jin Luoyin and had no magical power at all. He could only suppress his anger and even hope that the Moon Goddess would notice that he was missing and come to find him.
Otherwise, he would have to wait until the formation became ineffective or Jin Luoyin died before he could regain his freedom.
Jin Luoyin had no idea about the twists and turns that the government was thinking. She was extremely busy every day.
But even though she was extremely busy, she would still take time out every day to chat with Fu Fang, but she often came to see Fu Fang in the middle of the night.
For Fu Fang, who has an extremely regular lifestyle, this is the greatest torture in his life of captivity.
Today, Jin Luoyin lit up the candles in the entire hall in the middle of the night again, and the flickering candlelight woke up the sleeping Fu Fang.
"Aren't you tired of coming here every day?" Fu Fang yawned, his eyes half-closed, and he had obviously just woken up from a dream.
Jin Luoyin resisted the urge to roll her eyes, but her tone wasn't as gentle as before.
"Tired," she said expressionlessly, "so tired I want to die."
"Those ministers in the court, they all talk about me being a woman, and they keep asking me to step down and let someone else take over. Haha, just dealing with them lately has made me so tired that I don't even want to talk anymore."
The government officials didn't quite understand. "Isn't it all just talking? If you're tired, aren't those executioners beheading people at the market every day even more tired than you?"
Jin Luoyin casually pulled out a teacup, and then took out a pot of wine from somewhere, and started drinking by himself.
"It's tiring to think about whether to kill this person or not, and how to kill him every day, isn't it?"
The government did not want to know Jin Luoyin's bloody thoughts. Considering whether to kill or not was fake, the real thing was considering how to kill.
He has been with Jin Luoyin for a long time during this period, and gradually he has come to understand Jin Luoyin's personality.
Fufang closed his eyes, trying to regain the sleepiness that had kept him away from home.
"Now that we've finished chatting, could you put out the candles?"
Jin Luoyin: "No, I'm in a good mood today, please chat with me for a while."
"I haven't told you how I scolded those ministers yet."
"In my current position, they don't dare to listen to what I say, for fear that I will kill them after hearing it. Only you can listen to it."
Fu Fang took a deep breath and said, "I don't really want to hear it. I really need sleep."
Jin Luoyin was surprised: "Aren't you a god? Do you still need to sleep?"
Fu Fang: "Why don't gods need to sleep?"
Jin Luoyin: "Aren't gods immortal? If they are immortal, do they still need to sleep?"
Fu Fang laughed in anger and babbled, "It's because of immortality that we need to sleep."
"Otherwise, your life would be so boring."
Jin Luoyin seemed to be thinking: "Then it seems that I can't come to see you in the middle of the night anymore."
"No wonder you looked so haggard these past few days. It turns out it's because I disturbed your sleep."
Fu Fang was stunned. He never expected that Jin Luoyin would not discover this thing until several days later, even though anyone could see it at the first sight.
At this time, after hearing Jin Luoyin's repentance, the government actually softened its heart.
He waved his hand. "It's my fault for not explaining it to you clearly, but now that I've made it clear, don't choose this time to come next time."
"But I'm also very surprised. You handle government affairs during the day, come to see me at night, and go back late at night. You only sleep for a few hours a day. Aren't you tired?"
Jin Luoyin acted as if she had heard a joke, "I'm tired, but those few hours of sleep are enough for me."
Fu Fang looked up at the sky helplessly: "Then you have quite a lot of energy."
He no longer had that much energy. After his healthy routine was disrupted by Jin Luoyin these days, Fu Fang felt as if he had no motivation to do anything.
I am physically healthy, but mentally I feel exhausted.
After he finished speaking about his troubles, the Moon Goddess teased him, "Do you feel old when you compare yourself to young people?"
At that time, he just thought that the Moon Goddess was joking, but after hearing Jin Luoyin say that a few hours of sleep would be enough for him, the government officials agreed with the Moon Goddess' words for the first time.
He may be really old, still young physically, but old mentally.
Seeing Fu Fang collapsed on the bed, Jin Luoyin knew that she had indeed disturbed him during this period of time. She actually said something politely and left.
Sometimes the government really can't see through Jin Luoyin. They say they like him, but the worst thing they have done is to imprison him here.
She had no intention of exaggerating anything, which made the government officials who had been waiting for her next move dare not act rashly.
Watching Jin Luoyin extinguishing the candles she had lit when she came one by one, it seemed as if the light of the whole world was fading away with her.
The mansion suddenly said, "Every time you come here, you light the candles in the hall yourself. With so many candles, aren't you tired?"
Jin Luoyin continued with his actions. The flickering candlelight in the hall gradually dimmed, and the light in front of Fu Fang disappeared, making it impossible for him to see Jin Luoyin's expression.
"One thousand and one candles."
The government officials were confused: "What?"
Jin Luoyin suddenly laughed and continued, "There are a total of one thousand and one candles in the hall."
"Of course I'm tired, with all those candles."
Fu Fang: "Then why do you light up every one of them? What's the point?"
Jin Luoyin: "It's a cool way to appear, don't you think?"
"With my appearance, the light of this world will gradually appear, and you will be able to see this world."
Fu Fang chuckled: "Child's mentality."
"Next time you come, you don't need to light so many candles. Just light the few candles in front of me."
Jin Luoyin silently extinguished the last candle, and at the last second before stepping out of the hall, she responded, "Okay."
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the government actually heard a hint of sadness in the word “OK”.
Fu Fang closed his eyes, trying to put everything behind him and fall asleep, but the word "OK" kept floating in his mind.
His heart suddenly felt like it was struck by something, and a slight cracking sound echoed in the silent night.
