ANALKH
This is a Greek word that means fate, destiny or destiny. If you think that the central theme of this novel is the concept of fate, you are wrong. This is the evil record of a vice bishop in Paris who indulged his desires and hurt kindness. As the novel turns from page to page, you will be deeply excited by this tragic and moving story.
The story took place on 148 1 6th. On this day, fireworks will be set off in Grabe Square, the chapel in Prague will be tied with flowers and ribbons into May laurels, and a religious drama will be staged in the court hall. The night before, people in the city hall wore purple satin coats with white crosses on their chests and sounded their horns loudly in public places to inform everyone that the French Crown Prince and Princess Margaret of Flanders were married. The Flemish envoy will watch the performance of religious dramas and the election of the Lord of fools. On that day, men and women in Paris closed their houses and shops and flocked from all directions to Grabe Square, Prague Church and the court hall. The crowd is increasing, forming a huge crowd, which is like a waterfall flowing to a lake. Laughter, shouts and the footsteps of thousands of people made a huge sound. There are craftsmen, street performers, priests, businessmen, college students and vagrants and beggars among the surging crowd. From time to time, there was a cry of "be kind" in laughter and abuse. Every gate, every window, every small window and every roof is crowded with thousands of faces, especially the demure faces of women. They are constantly observing and looking for the floating crowd, their ears are roaring and their eyes are dizzy. People in Paris are celebrating Epiphany and April Fool's Day with great excitement.
As usual, the play will be staged in the court hall at noon 12. Today is the religious satire The Judgment of the Virgin Mary. Due to the lateness of bishops and nobles, the play could not start on time. There was a lot of complaints under the stage, and the students shouted that if they didn't perform religious dramas, they would hang four court deacons, which scared the faces of the four court deacons white. The crowd waited for a long time and finally opened the curtain before the arrival of the bishop and nobles. On the stage, Jupiter was beautifully dressed, wearing black velvet armor with gold-plated buttons, a helmet with silver-plated buttons on his head, a roll of gold-plated coins with nails and long and short gold foils in his hand, and Greek rope shoes on his feet. This gorgeous costume and strange clothes aroused the enthusiasm of the audience for a while, but it didn't last long and soon disappeared into the boring content. There are four tattoos on the stage. They are peasant women and priests, businesswomen and workers. Two happy couples want to present a golden dolphin to the most beautiful woman. So they traveled all over the world in search of this beauty. Dolphins are compared to Prince Amboise. The plot was interrupted by the cry of a handsome and naughty young man, Joao Fraineau. It turned out that Croban Tuyifu, the "king" of the beggar kingdom, pretended to be a sick ghost, half-closed his eyes and begged in a sad voice: "Please be merciful!" The interrupted story didn't last long before it was interrupted by the arrival of 48 envoys from Austrian Duke Maxmilian. When the distinguished guests came in, Croban, the beggar king, boldly crossed his legs on the porch rafters, showing rare arrogance. People are not interested in religious dramas, and Gaco Gobolo, a sock shop merchant in the port city, proposed to elect the king of fools. Everyone takes turns sticking their heads out of the window and laughing at others. Whoever laughs the ugliest will be elected king in the cheers of the masses. The proposal received enthusiastic support. So there were wonderful strange smiles in the window, especially that of quasimodo, the bell ringer of Notre Dame, which surprised the audience and won warm applause.
The winner of "The King of Fools" has a tetrahedral nose, a horseshoe-shaped mouth, a small left eye under the blushing eyebrows like bristles, and a big tumor on the right eye. His teeth are jagged like battlements, his lips are hard, and a tooth protrudes from his lips like ivory. His bent chin and a full face of contempt, surprise and sadness aroused cheers from the audience. I saw a huge head covered with red hair and a hunchback protruding between his shoulders. When he swings, his legs and legs are like two sickles, and the handles are connected together. His feet are fat and his hands are thick. Among all kinds of deformities, there is an unquestionable nervous, serious and brave attitude. The winner of the king of fools is a scared woman and child. He wore a paper crown on his head, a ridiculous robe and a sedan chair with a picture on it. 1 1 members of the Friends of Fools carried him on their shoulders, crossed the courtroom corridor and marched in some streets and public places.
In the blink of an eye, the court hall was empty. Without an audience, the religious drama can't go on. A young man shouted, "La Esme Halda is here! Laes May Halda is in the square! " The name has a strange effect. Everyone in the hall ran to the window and climbed on the wall to see it. Some people even took down the ladder performed by the actors.
Fireworks are being set off in the center of Grebe Square, surrounded by a circle of people. People were fascinated by the dance of the gypsy girl La Esme Halda, and more and more people gathered in the square. At the beginning of the novel, the conflict between divinity and humanity is revealed, and the time, place and central figure of the story are explained. This is the beginning of the novel story. A thrilling tragedy began.
When the audience of religious drama dispersed in a hubbub, the failed playwright Gan Guo Wa strolled into the square, only to find himself fascinated by the magnificent scene before him. But a slim girl, with a little goat beside her, danced briskly with big black eyes shining. The girl danced in the crowd, playing drums. Gan Guo tile involuntarily issued a "person? Is it a fairy? Is it an angel? " It's amazing.
Everyone around her was dumbfounded. When she danced with the drums in this way, her round and powerful arms held a small drum high above her small and exquisite head. And her golden tights without wrinkles, her gown with a small class point that swells when dancing, her bare shoulders, her legs that are always exposed from the skirt, her black hair and her bright eyes: it seems that she is simply a supernatural creature. Gan Guo thought, "This is a snake, this is a forest fairy, this is a goddess, and this is a Dionysus!" " Among the thousands of faces shining in the light, there is a serious, calm and gloomy face. This man is about thirty-five years old, and he has only a few white hairs on his bald head. His deep eyes sparkled with a strange youth, fanatical life and deep enthusiasm. He kept looking at the gypsy girl. In the cheers of people for the wonderful performance of the girl and the little goat, there was a gloomy voice: "There are evil methods here!" " ""This is blasphemous! " "This is an insult to the sacredness!" But thunderous cheers drowned out the gloomy voice. The gloomy voice was made by the bald man, and the girl shuddered. A shrill voice came from the dark corner of the square. Won't you go away? You Egyptian cricket! "This is the cry of Judith, a female monk who is locked up in the Dutch tower. 16 years ago, her only daughter was stolen by gypsies, and for this reason, she was crazy; For this reason, she hates all gypsies.
Late at night, the girl walked out of the crowd with a small drum and a little goat Gary. Gan Guo tile followed, walked into the narrow alley, crossed the alley, and reached the crossroads, and the street became darker and more desolate. Suddenly I heard a scream. By the burning candle light in the iron cage of the Madonna on the street corner, Gan Guo Wa saw that gypsy woman was taken away by two black shadows, and the poor little goat bleated with fear. Gan Guo tile shouted: "Help! Help! " The girl shouted, "Catch the murderer! Catch the murderer! " Just then, the captain of the Royal Guards took fifteen or sixteen archers, surrounded quasimodo who robbed people, caught him and tied him up. After running in a daze for a while, Gan Guo Wa fell into the sewer several times, crossed many streets, crossed many hutongs and strayed into the beggar's kingdom. Piles of lame, one-eyed and insane patients are crowded here, and beggars, pickpockets, artists and fraudsters gather. They live in the dirty corner of the city and represent the lowest level of Paris society. In contrast, the towering buildings in the city center are inhabited by well-dressed nobles and monks, who control the power of life and death. Gan Guo tile broke into the "strange hall"; Croban Tuyifu, the "king" in the "strange hall", is a beggar begging for money in the court hall during the day. According to the "law" of the "miracle dynasty", a "gentleman" who strays into the "strange hall" must be hanged by the court like a tramp unless a woman in the beggar kingdom is willing to marry him; If no woman marries him, she will be hanged alive. No beggar woman in the beggar kingdom wants him to be her husband. In order to free the innocent man from the gallows, Esme Holda walked quickly to Gan Guo Wa and announced that she had been married to him for four years. But in Esme Halda's mind, Fabi, who saved her from danger, was impressed.
The author vividly introduced the place where the story happened-Notre Dame de Paris. This is a beautiful, solemn and lofty building. It is the masterpiece of French artists and laborers. The author enthusiastically praised: "It is rare to find a more beautiful page than the facade of Notre Dame!"
The author praised the grandeur of Notre Dame de Paris and introduced the customs and administrative divisions of Paris in the15th century. Paris at that time was divided into three towns: urban area, urban area and university area. The city is on the island; Urban areas go deep into rural areas; The university area is on the left bank of the Seine. Notre Dame de Paris is in this city.
Claude, deputy bishop of Notre Dame de Paris, was born in an elderly family and was appointed as a priest by his parents since childhood. He grew up in popular books and dictionaries, and learned to lower his head and speak softly at an early age. He is melancholy and full of enthusiasm for learning. He completed the course of religious laws and regulations, devoted himself to studying the code, and also studied medicine and advanced literature and art; Know Latin, Greek and Hebrew. He is in contact with King Louis Xi. When he 18 years old, his parents died of the plague. He loves his little brother Ang. With great compassion, he raised quasimodo, a disabled child who was abandoned on the wooden bed in the front porch of Notre Dame bell tower and put in a sack. Because of his depravity and debauchery when he grew up, his humanity was frustrated, so he devoted himself to science and often went into the broken house to refine stones alone. He stayed away from the crowd and tried to restrain the intrusion of human instinct with asceticism advocated by Catholicism. "All women, old and young, married and unmarried", even the king's daughter came to visit, and he refused. He forbade gypsy girls to dance in the open space of the church. But he couldn't rule out the intrusion of desire. He followed the beautiful girl La Esme Halda everywhere. He also ordered quasimodo to take her away late at night. Because quasimodo was caught by the guards during the robbery (but he sneaked away), on the morning of the festival, quasimodo was taken to court for trial. Fu Luohan, the prosecutor in charge of hearing the quasimodo case, is a corrupt official who doesn't care about the people and cares about their lives. He is also a deaf person. Fu Luohan is deaf. I didn't know that prisoners were deaf. After asking three questions, the prosecutor said impatiently, "That's enough!" "We declare face to face: First, it is because of the harassment you made at night; Second, because you hit a crazy woman; Third, because you betrayed and rebelled against your majesty's patrol. Do you have any excuse for this? Clerk, have you recorded what the prisoner said? " This clever question caused a burst of laughter from the audience and secretaries. Because quasimodo didn't understand a word and didn't say a word. But the deaf prosecutor thought that the prisoner had made a rude answer and said angrily, "villain, for your answer, you should be hanged." Do you know who you are talking to? "Even the guards in the reception room laughed together. Mr. mayor, continue the interrogation. The poor bell ringer couldn't hear what the other party was asking, and was unfairly judged when the answer was irrelevant. Quasimodo was taken to the wringing table in Grabe Square by armed military police, and he had to wring it for an hour. When the clerk explained to the prosecutor that "this man is deaf", he didn't expect the prosecutor to say, "Oh! Oh! That's too difficult. I don't know about it yet. In that case, we should torture him for an extra hour. "I was sentenced to an extra hour. Quasimodo, because the prosecutor is as deaf as he is, will be transferred to the ground for two hours.
When quasimodo, who was worshipped as the king of fools yesterday, was tied to the roulette wheel of the table by ropes and belts, his shirt was stripped to his chest and he knelt on the board of the table. The executioner turned the wheel of the winch with his foot, and the whip made a sharp noise in the air, falling on the poor bell ringer's shoulder like a shower, one by one, one by one, one by one ... The wheel kept turning, the whip fell, blood splashed, and thousands of blood flowed on his shoulder. Quasimodo's eyes were full of anger, and he struggled in despair and bowed his head wearily. Quasimodo's torture of unjust imprisonment not only failed to win the slightest sympathy of spectators, but was cursed, laughed at and even stoned to death. People in the savage Middle Ages were "unsympathetic". Quasimodo saw a priest riding a mule in his punishment; His angry, regretful and disappointed face suddenly showed a gentle smile, full of unspeakable sweetness and gentleness. The closer the priest gets to him, the more obvious, clear and brilliant his smile becomes. However, when the priest recognized the prisoner, he lowered his eyes and hurried back and left. The priest, Dom Claude Fraineau, was the vice bishop who instigated quasimodo to rob gypsy girls. During the one-and-a-half-hour whipping, Garcia Dior suddenly broke the silence and cried in a voice more like an animal growl than a human voice, "Give me water to drink!" This tragic call did not arouse people's sympathy, but caused the laughter of the citizens. Quasimodo's face was purple and sweaty, his eyes were shining wildly, his mouth was blistered with anger and pain, and his tongue was half sticking out of his lips. A few minutes later, he shouted in a more angry voice, "Give me water to drink!" " "Still only laughter. Some throw sponges soaked in sewage, some throw stones, and some throw broken bowls. Quasimodo gasped for the third time and said, "Give me water to drink.". At this time, I saw a girl in strange clothes, with a snow-white goat and a small drum in her hand, separating everyone and coming to the waist twisting table. Quasimodo saw the girl he wanted to take away last night; He was afraid and thought he was going to get even with him. Unexpectedly, the girl walked silently to the prisoner who bent down to avoid her, took out a gourd from under her bra and gently sent it to quasimodo's chapped mouth for him to drink. The man who was punished for doing bad things for others was so moved that a big tear rolled down his cheek. This is the first tear that the poor man shed in his life. After drinking, the poor man looked at the girl with a look of regret and sadness. The author admires this beautiful, fresh, pure, charming and exquisite girl who pities the poor, ugly and evil people. Because of this kind move, the audience under the stage was also moved and everyone applauded. However, Judith, a female monk who lives in the "mouse hole", cursed savagely: "Damn gypsy daughter! Damn it! Damn it! "
The first volume is over.
The second volume begins with the seventh volume.
In early March, on a sunny spring day, a group of beautiful aristocratic women reveled on the vaults of rich Gothic buildings and stone terraces. They are talking and laughing and playing. These women came to Paris from other provinces and gathered at the widow's house of the former sword and archer of the king, waiting for the honor of accompanying Princess Flanders.
The widow's daughter Gunde Rosier Fletcher de Lee is the fiancee of bodyguard Fabi de Chadobeher. This playboy Fabi, who is used to playing with women, likes the new and hates the old, is uneasy and has other plans. Fletcher de Lee suspected that Fabi was having an affair with a gypsy girl who was a street performer. They called Esme Holda from the Businessman Square to the aristocratic mansion. These self-righteous women were stunned by the beauty of gypsy girls. They looked at the girl from head to toe and looked at each other. Then, they besieged the girl with vicious and sharp tongues, and made sharp satire and vicious ridicule on her, showing the arrogance and cruelty of the aristocratic class. The little girl left this annoying place with tears in her eyes and a broken heart and a lovely little goat. Fabi was attracted by Esme Halda's beauty. Out of his bad habit of playing with women, he met Joers May Halda at a designated place late at night. Fabi was discovered and followed by Claude, the vice bishop of Notre Dame, and dated Esme Holda. Claude was tortured by the spiritual shackles of Catholic asceticism and became a prisoner of terrible lust, monitoring the girl's actions from the top of Notre Dame every day. The way he looked at the girl was gloomy and terrible. He is so drooling over Esme Holda that he can't tolerate anyone approaching her. If he can't keep her for himself, he will be desperate to destroy her by evil means. He even found such a "reason" to defend himself: "Who told her to be so beautiful" and was going to ask the royal prosecutor to arrest the gypsy girl. Just as Esme Halda and Fabi were having a tryst at the Fadel Hotel, Claude came out of the dark corner like a nigger and stabbed Fabi to death with a dagger. As a result, Esme Halda was accused of being a witch and a murderer, and was tried in court, while Claude, the real murderer, sat high on the trial bench and framed Esme Halda as a murderer who harmed people by witchcraft. No matter how Esme Holda complained and howled that he had been wronged, the Vatican and the court still colluded to force Esme Holda to confess by torture. Esme Halda was thrown into death row prison, and Claude jumped into the prison in an attempt to lure Esme Halda to satisfy his animal desires, but Esme Halda refused. Claude claimed that his desire for girls was an eternal love. Legend has it that a witch was fascinated by a beautiful witch. He burned the witch to death and got rid of his evil thoughts. Claude is determined to try this division of labor. He used the power of the archdeacon to sentence Esme Halda to be hanged by the court.
On the day of execution, countless people gathered in the square. Claude, the vice bishop, approached the girl on the pretext of listening to the prisoner's confession and told her that as long as she promised to love him, she could be spared the death penalty. Esme Halda refused; She was preoccupied with Fabi. With her hands tied and her back upside down, she accidentally met Fabi when she was dying. The girl's heart was so happy that she forgot the sadness of death and shouted, "Fabi! My Fabi! " But Captain Fabi, who stood on the terrace watching the execution coldly, frowned and hid behind the velvet curtain on the terrace, next to the noble lady. The girl was heartbroken and fell on the sidewalk. The executioner is about to execute the death penalty. At this critical moment, the bell ringer quickly crossed the flower railing, grabbed the rope with his feet, knees and hands, slid to the front of the church, jumped off the roof, ran to the place where the executioner was executed, knocked down the executioner with his fist, picked up the gypsy girl, held the girl high on his shoulder and shouted in a terrible voice: "Holy land! Holy land! " Hit Notre Dame like lightning. At this time, people on the execution ground are repeatedly shouting: "Holy land! Holy land! " Thousands of people applauded and cheered for quasimodo's embrace of Esme Holda under the arch of the cathedral.
Quasimodo placed Esme Holda in the bell tower of Notre Dame. Notre Dame was a forbidden area in the Middle Ages, and only clergy were allowed in and out. This place is not governed by any law. Quasimodo, an ugly lowlife with a rough appearance, is the most sincere and affectionate person. He said the sweetest and most considerate words to Esme Holda. He said, "I scared you. I am ugly, aren't I? Never look at me. Listen to me. -during the day, you stay here; In the evening, you can take a walk in the whole church. But don't go out of the church day or night. If you go out, it will be ruined. If people kill you, I will die. " His love for Esme Holda is reverence and admiration. He compared Esme Holda to himself and felt ashamed of himself. He compared the beautiful things in his mind to girls and stammered to Esme Halda, "You are a ray of sunshine, a dewdrop, a bird's song! -I, I am a terrible thing, unlike people and animals. I don't know what is harder, shriveled and ugly than a stone. " His love for Esme Halda reached the level of selflessness, selflessness and loftiness. When he learned that Esme Halda missed Captain Fabi and was unhappy, he tried to inform Fabi and let him meet the girl. When he saw Esme Halda crying because Fabi didn't come, he tried to comfort her. He sends food to Esme Halda every day and crouches outside the gypsy girl's house at night to protect her carefully. Vice Bishop Claude found the girl's hiding place in the bell tower and tried to rape her in the middle of the night. Quasimodo knew about it and resolutely stopped him. Quasimodo has always regarded Claude as his savior, grovelling, and even "more than all dogs and horses love their owners". But for Esme Halda, he went against him and betrayed him.
Esme Halda lives in the bell tower of Notre Dame and is protected by Garcidianto. However, the king has decided to hang the innocent girl in three days. In order to satisfy his own lust, Claude staged a new plot. He wants Gan Guo Wada to replace Esme Halda, Gan Guo Wada to wear skirts and girls to wear red and yellow clothes. The underclass of Miracle Dynasty learned that Esme Halda was going to be hanged, and they gathered in front of Notre Dame to save their sister, the gypsy girl. I saw a lamp and seven or eight torches were lit in the darkness. A large group of men and women in rags marched towards Notre Dame Square, holding up sickles, spears, hoes and halberds. A man with a torch and a short stick climbed up the stump to give a speech. This man is the king of the beggar kingdom, Croban Tuyifu. He called the gypsy girl his sister, and he was her protector. He said excitedly and loudly, "The Archbishop of Paris and members of parliament heard that the sister who was wrongly accused of witchcraft was hiding in the holy church, and the parliament wanted to re-arrest, but you agreed with them. Our sister will be hanged tomorrow. If your church is sacred, so are our sisters. Give our sister back to us, or we'll take her away and rob the church. " As soon as Croban's voice fell, thirty strong brothers rushed to knock on the door of Notre Dame de Paris. The eleven stone steps in front of Notre Dame are full of people with weapons. Just as Jixin, the big guy, rushed forward together, suddenly, a long and thick light beam fell from the sky, killing twelve people at once, and people fled in horror. After a while, Croban directed the crowd to shoot at the front wall of the church with bows, arrows and muskets. The residents of Paris were awakened by shouting and killing. He opened the window and looked out. The enraged soldiers shot at the window with bows and muskets, and the frightened citizens quickly closed the window. Croban thought about the countermeasures and commanded his strong brothers to carry the pillars and hit the gate of Notre Dame. Unexpectedly, many stones fell from the air and fell on the soldiers like raindrops. Piles of brothers were killed and hundreds of people bled. Everyone hammered harder at the gate, the panel broke, the carvings were scattered, the gate shook, and the stones falling like raindrops were not enough to repel people's attacks. Just as everyone Qi Xin joined forces to storm the gate, two pieces of molten lead poured into the dense crowd from the top, some of them were scalded to death before shouting, and some of them gave a heartbreaking howl. Croban sent men around looking for ladders. Joao Frono, the archbishop's brother, went to the big ladder and scrambled to climb the first ladder to reach the bell tower. However, the ladder was pushed away by quasimodo; Quasimodo mistakenly thought that these people had come to "rob" Esme Halda, so he "resisted" alone. 16-year-old Jaong was thrown upside down by quasimodo and died in the crowd under the church. In order to save their sisters and their ideal symbol of beauty and goodness, vagrants rushed to Notre Dame de Paris, a forbidden place, one after another. A shout ShaSheng in the square, flames, rolling in. When the ruler saw this, he panicked. The Royal Guard reported to the king that 6000 civilians had attacked Notre Dame. King Louis Xi's evil wolf mercilessly ordered: "kill all civilians and hang witches." The Royal Guard went out, and thousands of torches shone like day. Captain Fabi led the cavalry to attack the uprising people. The wanderer fought to the death, and the brave Croban was knocked down by an evil bullet. Wang Jun's shells kept shooting at the people who lost their leaders, and a large number of civilians fell in a pool of blood, leaving a large number of bodies in the square in front of Notre Dame, and the rest had to flee for their lives. Quasimodo, a deaf one-eyed, thought that the crowd who robbed the girl was "crushed" by him, and he foolishly thought that the gypsy girl he protected was safe. He was stunned when he entered Esme Halda's cabin with the happiness of the winner. The room is empty. Where is the girl he tried to protect? It turned out that Esme Halda was cheated by Claude in the chaos. Esme Halda instinctively disliked coming to "rescue" her masked man in black, but he came with a girl's companion, Gan Guo Wa. Esme Holda accompanied them down the tower, across the wasteland, and walked to the shore. They got on the boat, followed by the little goat. Torches were blazing on the shore, and the Royal Guard was searching for gypsy woman and her lamb. Gan Guo tile clung to the lamb, and he could not save two at the same time; Girls don't want to follow men in black. When they came to the gallows in the square, when the masked man showed Claude's true face and courted the girl, the girl refused. Esme Holda knelt under the gallows. In deep sadness and despair, she said to Claude, "It doesn't scare me as much as you do." No matter how Claude cries and threatens, Esme Holda just can't fall in love and refuses to be rescued from Claude. Claude viciously gave Esme Holda to Jude, a crazy monk. Jude was stolen from her only daughter by gypsies sixteen years ago; She hates gypsies to the point of madness. When she saw Claude give her a gypsy girl in the shack, her eyes suddenly showed a fierce look, and she tried her best to tear the innocent girl. Just as she tore it hard, suddenly an embroidered little shoe fell from Esme Halda's chest; This little shoe is just a pair with the one she holds tightly in her hand. There is also a piece of parchment in the small bag of shoes, which reads: "If these shoes are paired, your mother will hold your arm." It was a miracle that made her mother and daughter know each other and be in danger. With all her strength, the mother smashed the bars on the window with stones and hid her daughter in a room that could only accommodate one person. But the pursuer came, and Claude pointed out that Esme Halda was hiding here. Despite the cry of his mother, who was madly in love with her daughter, Claude ordered the Royal Guard to snatch Esme Holda from her mother. Esme Holda was tied to the execution ground, and a heartbroken mother was extremely disappointed when she saw her daughter lost and found. She called to her daughter, who was not a gypsy, but a Christian daughter who was stolen from her childhood. She is not a witch, she is a good girl. But the evil Vatican and feudal rulers showed no mercy, and Esme Halda was finally executed. Mother bit the executioner's hand, knocked her head on the ground in despair and fell dead.
Claude, the culprit who killed Esme Halda, stood on the bell tower of Notre Dame, and watched Esme Halda he wanted hanged by himself, showing a demonic smile. In great grief, quasimodo saw the devil's smile on Claude's face. He held out two big hands and pushed Claude. Claude fell from the bell tower of Notre Dame, hung on the sink for a while, and soon fell into the abyss. Quasimodo cried and said, very painful, "Oh, all the people I have loved!" At night, Notre Dame bell ringer quasimodo disappeared.
Gan Guo Wa saved the child and married Captain Fabi.
18 months later, two bodies, a man and a woman, were found in the cellar of Monteverdun where Esme Halda was buried. The man's body tightly embraces the woman's body. The male corpse was hunchbacked, lame and had no broken neck. This is obviously quasimodo; The female corpse, with a string of beads and a bag around her neck, is obviously Esme Halda.
Notre Dame de Paris, a romantic novel, strongly exposes and accuses the evils of the church and feudal autocracy through the tragic story that the kind and innocent ordinary people represented by Esme Holda were destroyed and persecuted by the church and feudal autocracy until they died.
The sympathetic protagonist Esme Halda in the novel is a sincere, kind and beautiful girl. She was stolen by gypsies when she was a baby. When I grew up, I wandered the streets, worked as a busker and lived with refugees.
