Count of Monte Cristo
Chapter 74
The tragedy of the deaths of Madame de Villefort and Edward, mother and son, and the madness of Prosecutor Villefort were soon known to all.They lamented the tragedy of the family. Villefort's father, a strong old man, managed the funeral with the help of enthusiastic and loyal servants, and propped up the precarious and dilapidated home.People were surprised to find that this old man was not defeated by this huge disaster at all. He would let his servants push his wheelchair out for a walk every day. His eyes were still shining, as if he was looking forward to something—— With the one he loves the most, he will be back soon.
Danglars sniffed out ominous information from this series of events.
He began to want to escape from the city of Paris, and he thought that he might be the next one to die and go crazy.He has lost a lot of money recently, but he can make another one. Thinking about the money sent by the hospital a few days ago, he has an idea in his mind.As for his wife, the Baroness Danglars, let her be.Where is the daughter?Danglars hesitated only for a moment before deciding that his daughter should also be entrusted to the protection of her mother.It is always good for a daughter to follow her mother.
But he didn't expect that he got 500 million, but he wanted to honor the robbers.He couldn't afford a single meal, and now he's starving to death.It turned out that the pain of hunger was so unbearable. He prayed to God to let him enter the Paradise as soon as possible, instead of tormenting him like this.
It was very dark in the cave, he was dizzy and couldn't see anything, he even had auditory hallucinations, and heard the voice of God, the voice was low and majestic, "Do you know you were wrong? Have you repented?"
Danglars didn't have the strength to speak, he only made a whining sound. He knew he had confessed, but what did he regret?Is it a confession that he shouldn't have taken wealth from those poor people?Is it to confess that he should not use his wife and daughter to obtain money?Is it a confession that he shouldn't have embezzled the relief funds of the orphanage?
Danglars opened his eyes, and behind the robber, he saw a tall figure.
"Have you repented?" the voice asked again.
"What do I confess?" asked Danglars, at the top of his voice.
The voice said again, "Have you forgotten the bad things you have done? Did you earn so much wealth in the past by yourself?" The voice was somewhat familiar.
Danglars was excited, he suddenly had a burst of strength, thinking of his current situation, he felt sad, he was going to die here.oh!God!God should forgive him. "Yes, I was wrong, and I repent!"
"Then I forgive you," said the man, throwing off his cloak and stepping into the light.
"Count of Monte Cristo!" said Danglars, pale with hunger and pain, and still more ashen with fear.
"You are mistaken, I am not the Count of Monte Cristo!"
"Then, who are you?"
"I was the one who was framed, betrayed, and slandered by you. My fiancée was made to live a life of humiliation by you. I was trampled by you, and I was used as a stepping stone to get rich by you. My father was killed by you. To die of starvation—I would have wanted you to die of hunger too. But I forgive you, because I too need forgiveness. I am Edmond Dantès."
With a cry, Danglars fell to the ground and curled up into a ball.
"Arise," said the count, "your life is safe. Your two companions are not so fortunate as you, one is mad, the other is dead. Keep the fifty thousand francs that remain, and I will give them to you." You. The 500 million you cheated from the hospital has been sent back to them. Now you can have a good meal. You are my guest tonight. Vampa, when this person is full, put him let go."
When the count left, Danglars was still lying on the ground. When he raised his head, he saw only a figure disappearing in the passage, and the robbers on both sides of the passage bowed to him.
Danglars burst out laughing suddenly, he was out of breath, his face turned pale, and tears flowed from his face, it seemed that God had opened the mechanism of laughter in his body, and he couldn't stop no matter what.The world is so ridiculous!
Danglars staggered out of the robber's cave, and there was no one to stop him.There was also a lot of food and wine at the entrance of the cave. Danglars numbly picked up the food and stuffed it into the viscount's mouth, as if he was not eating food but poison.Yes, maybe it is the poison that makes people die!Danglars ate while laughing, and finally he passed out, maybe because of the past confession, maybe because of the past diet, maybe just because he wanted to sleep, he passed out, and when he woke up again, he was already in a small river Beside, those robbers put him here.There was a small bag in his hand, which contained his fifty thousand francs. He stared at it for a while, then struggled to get up and went to the river to wash his face, and then he smiled again——a desolate and sad smile, his hair was completely white up.
He lay on his back and shouted: "God! God. God..." His voice changed from high to low, and then he began to whimper.
In the evening, the milky white mist shrouded the blue sea; through this mist, the autumn sun sprinkled its golden light on the blue sea, the heat of the day has gradually subsided, and the bright red, radiant The radiant sun was sinking into the water, gradually being swallowed up by the water.The sea is as smooth as glass, only temporarily disturbed by a fish jumping out of the sea to seek safety from the enemy's pursuit; from the port of Marseilles, those ships are as white as seagulls, so graceful, and can be seen Lots of nice little cruise ships.The breeze blows across the sea, like the breath of nature after waking up from a nap; a refreshing breeze blows across the coast, spreading the fragrance of flowers and plants mixed with the fresh sea breath everywhere.
Jacob was here waiting for them.
Now his revenge is all over.The last stop of revenge—Danglars, this shameless and despicable villain, has already suffered the punishment given to him by God.
The port in the evening is still very busy.A big ship is about to set sail over there.
Edmond's eyes were good, and he saw Albert and Heidi at a glance.
Lin Ke also saw that Mercedes and Heidi were standing together, sending Albert off.Albert is going to join the army, for his own pride and the future of his family.He is brave, enterprising and lovely.
Heidi lowered her head and couldn't see her face clearly, but one can imagine her mood, which must be accompanied by excitement and reluctance.Heidi left Paris and came to Marseille two days ago.She came to Albert--to find her lover.The girl finally confessed that she was in love with the Viscount Albert.
They just stood here without disturbing them, and waited until Albert's boat left and Heidi helped Mercedes leave in another direction before they boarded their yacht.Heidi has almost decided to marry Albert and stay in Marseilles to wait for his return.I was very sad to leave, but still respected Heidi's choice.
When their boat sailed, Heidi was completely out of sight.
"Have you made the arrangements?" Edmund asked Jacob, and Jacob nodded, "I have brought Captain Montlain to the villa, where his princess is waiting for him, this kid will be happy broken!"
"Yes! I really want to see him ecstatic." Lin Ke also said with emotion.
Edmond revives Valentine and gives her to Heidi's care, and Maximilian cannot see Valentine until she is fully recovered.Heidi was not on this yacht, she went to Marseilles, to find Albert there - to find her lover back.The girl finally confessed that she was in love with the Viscount Albert.
"That's great!" Lin Ke stretched out his arms, blowing the sea breeze and making a joyful voice, "Finally everything is coming to an end."
"Yeah..." Edmund also sighed, all the melancholy drifting away in the sea breeze.
On the vast sea, a neat, beautiful, and light yacht is passing through the evening mist.Like a swan spreading its wings against the wind, it glides smoothly on the water.Quickly and gracefully it leaves a trail of glowing water behind it.Gradually, the sun disappeared on the western horizon, and as night fell, the stars gradually lit up, and the moonlight was also beautiful.
They reached the isle of Monte Cristo.
This small island is still peaceful and beautiful. They will live on this island tonight. Those wonderful cave forests have only been enjoyed once.As soon as he landed, all the wild goats on the island ran away.Lin Ke held a pistol and fired a few shots from time to time, scaring many wild animals to flee. He chatted endlessly and laughed childishly.
Edmund's mood also improved, and he hugged Lin Ke's shoulders to the place where they landed for the first time. It happened when they were camping on the Maiden.
The sea breeze was already strong, and it hurt people's faces, but their hearts were burning. Jacob went to tidy up their residence. They entertained Franz here. Their cave hadn't been put away that time, as long as they opened it The cave door, just tidy it up a little bit.
Edmund put his arms around Lin Ke and looked at the star-studded sea, "It's over."
"Yes." Lin Ke nodded, "We should go to China next."
Their second trip around the world is about to begin.This time, I no longer travel with purpose like the first time, but go wherever I think of, wherever there is delicious food.Every time they went to a place last time, there was always a purpose, either for investment or to collect information or to save people, all of which were preparations for revenge.But now, they can finally come as they wish.
Lin Ke said excitedly, "I thought of a lot of places I want to go, and there are a lot of delicious food, you will definitely like it."
Edmund looked at Lin Ke's sparkling eyes, suddenly held his face in his hands, and kissed him.Lin Ke froze for a second, then kissed back without hesitation.
The stars are shining brightly at this time, which is the best time for kissing.
Meanwhile, at the villa of Monte Cristo on the Avenue de Champs-lys in Paris.
Monlie and Valentine were reading the letter left to them by the Count of Monte Cristo.
Maximilian hugged Valentine, "Shall we see the Count again?"
Valentine knew everything that happened in her family as soon as she woke up. At this moment, she was in a mixed mood of sorrow and joy. She choked up and said, "Dear Maximilian, yes, we will see him again. Everything in human beings Wisdom is all about waiting and hoping, isn't it?"
"Yes." Maximilian nodded, "We will be happy."
The letter was spread out on the desk, and the count's words could be read clearly: "My dear Maximilian, Mr. Noirtier is waiting for his granddaughter, and he hopes that when he leads his granddaughter to Before I go to the altar, I can bless you first, my friends, my house on the Champs-Elysées and my villa in Port de Lis were all given to Captain Morel by Edmond Dantès My son's wedding present. Mlle de Villefort will also accept half of it, because her father is now a madman, and her brother died with his mother in September, and I would like her to take her from her The property inherited from her father and her brother is donated to the poor. Maximilian, I have a word for you. There is neither happiness nor pain in the world; there is only the comparison of one state with another, and so That's all. Only those who have experienced misfortune can experience the greatest happiness. Morrel, we must experience the pain of death before we can experience the joy of life.
So, my beloved children, enjoy the joys of life!Never forget that until the day God reveals the future of man, all human wisdom is contained in these four words: 'wait' and 'hope'. "
The author has something to say:
The chapter is over, thank you all.Be with me for so long, although the writing is not good, but try my best to la. I wish you all success in your studies, work, love, family, and good health!
