It did not take long for the red genie to think. After about half an hour, it came out of the magic lamp again.
It was not as aggressive as it was at the beginning. Instead, the red Genie seemed to be very quiet.
"Mr. Genie, it seems that you have a result, right?" Boss Luo had an impeccable professional smile on his face … He had always regarded his identity as the [Shop Owner] as a profession to distinguish himself from the [Shop Owner]. However, his emotional problems were gradually fading, and he hadn't gotten a good cure.
"I really want to say that your fake smile is annoying …" The red Genie shook its head, "But why do I have a feeling that you are sincere?"
Luoqiu said softly, "Because I hope that every customer who completes a transaction can get what they really want."
"This is my answer." The red Genie waved its hand and a patterned card shot towards Luoqiu.
Boss Luo took it over and opened it to have a look. The card with a pattern was written: Soul.
Boss Luo smiled, "It seems that compared to the other two things, Mr. Genie thinks less of your soul."
The red Genie sneered, "As long as I don't die soon … My soul is also important, but at least it belongs to me before I die. Once I leave the magic lamp, I will not die easily with the power of the powerful Genie. "
Luoqiu slowly put away the card and wished, "I also hope that Mr. Genie can live a long life."
"Don't talk so much … I have already agreed to your terms!" The red Genie suppressed its anger, "Hurry up and make your third wish! You cunning guy! "
"That's true …" Boss Luo nodded and pondered, "But I don't know what to wish for since I have to make a wish all of a sudden."
It had already signed a contract to sell its soul just so that the other party could make the third wish. Now, it had even sold itself, but the other party was dragging its feet … The red genie could not take it anymore. Its voice suddenly became shrill. "I've already agreed to your request!"
"No, no, please don't misunderstand." Luoqiu said apologetically, "Please believe me. I didn't mean to make things difficult for you. Dear Mr. Genie … I will fulfill my promise. But … "
"But?" The veins on the genie's forehead were about to jump out. Streams of flames were even spurting out of its nostrils. It gritted its teeth and said, "But what?!"
Luoqiu said seriously, "It's just that since it's a rare opportunity to get a wish, of course, we have to think carefully about what kind of wish to make … We can't just waste it, right?"
Didn't you just use up two wishes to ask two boring questions … Now you're telling me to think about it carefully and not waste it?
The red genie was furious. If it were not for its dignity, it would have turned into a giant and stomped the other party to death like an ant!
"You've waited for thousands of years … Do you still care about this little bit of time?" Boss Luo said casually, "Mr. Genie."
The red genie took a deep breath. It did not want to be so angry. The problem was that it had always been a violent person. It had been trapped in the magic lamp all these years and it did not restrain itself much. In this kind of environment, it would only make its personality worse.
"Okay, I'll wait for you here!" The red genie snorted, "I'll wait until you're willing to make a wish!"
It felt that as a genie, it had completely disgraced itself in one day … The red genie's eyes were about to spit fire. A stool appeared out of thin air and it sat on it. It crossed its arms and shook its legs.
"By the way, what will happen to people who don't pass the test?" Boss Luo suddenly asked.
The red genie said impatiently, "They will fall into an illusion and be unable to extricate themselves! This is a test that reflects what one wants the most in one's heart. It's something that can't be obtained in real life … It's something that one dreams of getting! Once they get it, who would be willing to let it go? Therefore, those who are trapped in the illusion and are unwilling to leave will only have one outcome, which is to starve to death! "
Boss Luo suddenly looked at the magic lamp on the table, "It doesn't seem to have an illusion function."
"It was set up by the previous person who summoned me." The red genie said impatiently, "He invited a powerful wizard and set up this tunnel that can test one's soul. In the end, the wizard was killed … There should be many corpses outside, right? One of them should be the wizard's. Who cares about that? I'm only concerned about who can pass the test! "
Boss Luo could not help but be curious, "Since this is not a test set by the magic lamp itself, but an outsider's … the final result of the test, can the magic lamp accept it?"
The red genie said impatiently, "Didn't you pass the test and successfully summon me?"
Luoqiu said calmly, "I didn't encounter any illusions on my way here."
"No?" The red genie frowned and shook its head, "Let's not care about that. Anyway, you succeeded in summoning me, didn't you? Only those with a pure soul can be recognized by the magic lamp … Eh, wait, what's going on? "
The red genie then realized a problem that it had neglected from the beginning. The magic lamp's attitude was very ambiguous!
It did not acknowledge or deny its request. It did not even give any information to the genie of the lamp. All it did was quietly record the number of times the genie of the lamp asked the two questions that the genie of the lamp had already fulfilled.
"Strange … This is the first time I've encountered something like this." The red Genie of the Genie of the Genie of the Genie of the Genie of the Genie of the Genie of the Genie of the Genie
However, the red genie could not understand how the magic lamp could automatically increase the number of times it could fulfill the summoner's wish.
The red genie could not help but stare at the magic lamp in its residence. The magic lamp was now dull. Even if it was placed among the many lamps, it seemed to be the most inconspicuous one. It was as if it was saying, "I don't know and I don't dare to ask."
… What kind of joke was this?
The red genie shook its head. It did not care what the magic lamp was doing, as long as it did not reduce the number of times it could fulfill its wish … It did not care about anything else!
"Hey! Have you thought it through? "
"Mr. Genie, can you reverse time?" Boss Luo asked seriously, "The kind that can turn back time."
"Turn back time? That's easy! " The red genie laughed without thinking, "Isn't it just turning back time? I thought you were going to make a wish … Wait, what did you say?"
"Turn back time, turn back time." Luoqiu thought for a while and suddenly said with a trace of unrealistic hope, "Turn back time to four years ago."
The red genie was silent for a while. It looked at the summoner up and down and suddenly said expressionlessly, "Please speak human language."
"You can't do it?" Boss Luo's tone seemed to have a trace of disappointment.
In fact, such an answer seemed to have been met the moment the question appeared … The trace of unrealistic hope he had was the little bit of humanity he had left.
"If I could turn back time, I would definitely go back to the beginning. Why would I …" The red genie shook its head. "Listen, although the Magic Lamp can fulfill all the wishes of a person, there is a limit to it! Because it has almost considered the limit of human needs from the beginning! The rule of three wishes is to avoid the relationship between human greed and this limit … Time is the most powerful force in the world, more powerful than any other force! In the face of time, I will die one day … I can't turn back time! Change it! But, why do you want to turn back time? Is it because of something that you regret? This is simple, you can make a wish and I will make it up for you … The dead can be resurrected, the broken things can be restored! As long as the thing that caused the regret is gone, there is no need to regret … Shouldn't people look forward? "
"You're right."
What surprised the red genie was that it felt like the summoner was really listening to it, even though it had lost control of the situation at the beginning. Well, it was an illusion! It must be an illusion.
Boss Luo smiled, "Mr. Genie, I want to make a third wish."
The red genie suddenly pricked up its ears and rubbed its palms, it became impatient.
Boss Luo said slowly, "Can you tell me about your life … From your birth to now?"
"What … did you say?" The red genie opened its mouth and widened its eyes again … It couldn't even remember how many times it had been surprised in such a short period of time.
Luoqiu said calmly, "I really don't need anything … Since you can't do what I need, why don't you tell me about your life? You must be very lonely, living in the magic lamp all the time, fulfilling the wishes of those who are qualified to summon you, and then returning to the magic lamp again and again … If you don't want it, let's talk. "
"You …" The red genie frowned and suddenly looked at Zhang Zian with a strange expression, "Are you really a fool?"
"I have already made a wish … The last wish."
After a long silence, the red genie slowly sighed … It gently clapped its palms, and the dark and huge room in front of it was suddenly swept by bursts of reddish-brown light smoke.
After that, the surroundings became bright … It was a very spacious and bright room. On the delicate bed, a pregnant woman was in pain at the moment, surrounded by a large number of servants.
Outside the room, more people were waiting anxiously, among them was a man with a dignified face.
In front of Zhang Zian was a phantom created by the red genie's power, but it was so lifelike that it was like a real person … At this time, it slowly said in a low voice, "One day, the king of this country was anxiously waiting outside the queen's room because the prince of this country was about to be born."
Hearing this, Boss Luo suddenly blinked his eyes curiously, "This should be an ancient kingdom in a certain period … The child hasn't been born yet, but there was already technology to identify the baby's gender at that time."
"Don't interrupt!" The red genie glared at him, "I said it was a prince, so it was a prince!"
Luoqiu nodded obediently.
"The prince was born without a hitch." At this time, the red genie sorted out its thoughts and continued the story in the room. With the change of its voice, the surrounding scene began to flash like a merry-go-round.
"The prince was like a favorite child of God. On the day he was born, the whole country ushered in a harvest, an unprecedented harvest, so he was loved by the whole country."
"He was smart, strong, and strong. He was the pride of the kingdom. There was no doubt that he would take over the king's throne and become the new king. Everyone believes that under the leadership of the prince, this country will live a happier life. Even the king thinks so. "
"Soon, the prince was ten years old. He became stronger, and the teachers in the palace could no longer teach him anything. In order to let the prince learn more and become wiser, the king ordered to find a capable person to be the prince's teacher all over the country. "
"Finally, one day, a powerful Magus came before the king." The red genie paused for a long time, then took a deep breath and said in a cold voice, "The wizard had this incredible power. On the first day he met the king, he used his powerful strength to gain the king's approval and appointed the wizard to be the prince's new teacher."
"But the king would never have thought that the kingdom's destruction would begin at this moment …" The red genie suddenly stopped.
It was right in front of Boss Luo, clenching its fists hard. Its anger made its green roots covered its ferocious face … At the same time, its whole body was trembling, showing that it was not calm at this time. The realistic fantasy figures around it were also distorted.
The red Genie was like a volcano that was about to erupt. A powerful force leaked out of it, but soon, the Magic Lamp shot out a chain and restrained the red Genie.
It gradually calmed down, sighed, and suddenly looked at Boss Luo, "Do you really want to hear this story?"
