"..." Mr. Otto shook his head: "Let's talk about it later, the current matter is not conclusive."

"I just hope, I just hope that these children can grow up normally and smoothly, and don't need to be involved in this war." He suddenly showed a weak expression, looking sad and troubled: "This war has been fought for decades , even if we have any ideas, we are powerless to change them, even the kings and lords who are high above us can only protect themselves in this war..."

He is the sage king of the village, one of the few well-informed.

"The former king has passed away, and the new king has been suppressed and retreated steadily. Now it seems that being surrounded by the Kingdom of Heaven's Mandate may be the luck of the Huang Empire."

He smiled bitterly.

"At least the Pirate Federation and the Church of Heaven seem to have reached an agreement. They only ask for a tax increase, and they probably won't do anything to us."

When they got together, they said some words about the gloomy situation, but the atmosphere became more and more depressed, so they had to wave goodbye to each other, and each left.

The sky above the green grassland is clear and quiet, the golden wheat waves evoke a warm sweet smell, the slightly drunken wind blows through the streets, and the smell of sunshine rises from the muddy land of the Huang Empire. The boy's soles tapped.

He pushed open the door, and the empty big house was barely filled with air. He turned around and bolted the door, and walked into the dim room step by step.

Going up to the second floor, stepping on a chair and pulling the long ladder down to the attic, the boy climbed up to the storage room under the roof tiles with hands and feet.

There are two storage rooms in this house, one is downstairs with thick walls, used to store food, and the other is hidden between the roof tiles and brick walls, where the biggest secret of the two-story building is hidden.

It seemed that the cold wind was blowing along the floor, the boy's black hair trembled slightly, and the pair of cornflower blue pupils showed a deep mystery. He stepped into the small attic and stood beside the crooked pillar of the long shadow. Taking a deep breath, the eyes popped out as if something had opened.

Anger and hatred that were incompatible with the calm atmosphere of the Huang Empire rose from the boy, and he raised his hand to caress the 'decorations' hanging on the wall.

Daggers, pickaxes, maces, hatchets, short swords, hunting knives, half-handed swords, longswords.

He lightly touched the object that was neatly placed at the end of the attic, an indescribable cold penetrated into the boy's body along his fingertips, and he shuddered violently. The boy bowed his head and wept silently.

It was a set of plate armor that was frighteningly damaged. The helmet could be called complete. The middle part of the breastplate was sunken inward, and it was so damaged that it was almost twisted in strips. There was a large space between the arm armor, leg armor, and skirt armor.

Just looking at the tragic state of this pair of armor, one can understand what kind of misery its former owner suffered, and can also deduce how much pain he suffered before his death.

It makes people shudder.

"Friends and relatives."

The boy cried out the address.

He gritted his teeth.

Everything here is the relics of his relatives and friends. He left intact, but failed to return completely. The corpses in the coffin were broken into pieces. It took him a lot of effort to reassemble the bodies of relatives and friends relying on the arrangement of armor. stand up--

Every piece of murder weapon here is bright and clean, and it is obviously bundled in a high cabinet, but it has never been stained with dust. No one can imagine how the boy cleaned, cleaned, and maintained them with gnashing of teeth in lonely nights, swallowing the broken teeth, The blood and tears flowed nowhere.

The Pirate Federation is here.

he thinks.

The Pirate Federation is here.

He clenched his ten fingers violently, his fists bruised and veins bulging.

There was a knock on the door.

The boy shivered, he turned around and left the attic, hid the long ladder, went downstairs to the door, tidied up his appearance a little, so that no one would notice his change, and reached out to the door bolt.

Click.

"—"

The warm sunshine pours into the foyer, bringing the sweetness of early summer and the slight drunkenness of the afternoon.

There is also a hint of straw smell.

"Gao Su, come to my house for dinner today?" She smiled and initiated the invitation.

Her hair was rippling in the sun, and it was tied into a beautiful long braid. Those sea-colored eyes fell on the boy's face, and she froze for a moment.

"Gao Su?" Joan tilted her head, and the sun was pouring down on her gentle side face.

"Are you okay?" she asked a little worried.

"I'm fine." The boy pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled—the frost-like hatred and anger melted in this smile, which melted in the sunlight. He looked at the girl's worried eyebrows, and for some reason, he suddenly felt grateful— —

Joan smiled at him, and took the boy's hand: "Come on, the food will be cold!"

She couldn't help but pull the boy out, and Gao Su·Time Sequence Kong Lieshu stepped into the clear tide of sunshine, and the golden waves of wheat rippled into his heart.

Chapter 3

The fire wrapped around those quiet eyes.

Hammers and anvils burst out into a bright symphony, and roaring furnaces exhaled sparks dancing like fireflies.

Huang Empire is not a mining town rich in metals, she is just a supply point on the long journey.

Probably because of this consideration, England did not immediately make a move to this little Bailu city with the Franciavalois iris and golden lily badge even though it had signed a cooperation agreement with the Destiny Church.

It is not uncommon for the people at the bottom to increase taxes, and the war that squeezes flesh and blood only takes away money and food from them?Those dead bones that can't return home are still wandering around the borders of the battlefield, crying out dilapidated resentment.

The boy raised his arms and poured his heart into the hammer. Amidst the muffled sound of the bellows, the cheerful fire cast a thin layer of gold on his cornflower-colored eyes. With one blow and another, he hammered The creation in front of you should inject your own sour longing into this small and delicate work.

It will be a bracelet.

He fused a few silver wine glasses and plates, and asked for some scraps of silver scraps from the master blacksmith. How can a blacksmith workshop in the countryside desire to reflect the brilliant fire in the hall? He can only radiate his will wholeheartedly, Use my shallow but skilled skills to refine this mottled precious metal as much as possible.

Gao Su Time Sequence Konglieshu took the towel handed over by the master blacksmith, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"It's almost ready," he said.

The boy said softly that he didn't want others to notice the simple and sour friendship in his heart. He didn't know how to express this feeling. It was so weak that it didn't seem to exist, but the emotion that burst out in his heart every moment when making this work was so intense that he couldn't fake it. , so sincere that I don't want to deceive myself.

He put down the hammer, gently pressed the calluses between his fingers, and let out a long breath.

"Do you want to give it to her?" The master blacksmith looked at him with a smile.

He looked at the boy, eager to pass on all his skills to him, and worried whether his rough blacksmithing skills would strain the boy's wings and limit his prospects of taking off.

Gao Su·Time Series Kong Lieshu didn't answer, nor did he deny it.

"..." The master blacksmith didn't speak anymore, just squinted his eyes and smiled. The half-blind old man couldn't say anything too delicate, and he couldn't read very well. All his skills were concentrated in these thick palms.

"Shall I help you?" he asked.

"No need." Gao Su Time Sequence Konglieshu shook his head, and he wiped his sweat.

The footsteps of summer have not yet left, and the harvested wheat grains are piled up in the barn. Mr. Otto, the tax collector, has to calculate and weigh them every day, and then discuss with the priests and priests, asking if they have been sent from the "good man" Grand Duke. incoming notification letter.

After the harvest, the land is refreshed, quiet and comfortable. Large clumps of straw are tied up, piles are piled thickly in the nourishing land, and it takes a few days for the sun to infiltrate, and these straws can be used.

It's still hot.

Gao Su Time Sequence Kong Lieshu could only attribute his heartbeat to the weather. He spread out a sweat towel and wiped it vigorously to cover his face, hoping to eliminate the inner sweat.

"Gao Su."

Someone called him.

The boy put down the sweat towel,

Mr. Otto was walking this way, he greeted with a smile, nodded with the master blacksmith, and said to Gao Su Time Sequence Kong Lieshu as if he was very embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Gao Su, it's almost time for lunch It's time, but Teresa still hasn't come back, can I trouble you to call her?"

As he spoke, he showed the sickle in his hand. It seemed that it had reached the limit of its use, or hit something hard. The sickle had been broken into two pieces, and the fracture was in an unnaturally twisted shape.

"I want to talk to Smith about this scythe..." He caught a glimpse of the small sections of creations on the anvil that hadn't faded in color, and there seemed to be some mottled corners scattered around.

It was silver, he knew, left over from about the time when the blacksmith took over the work of hammering the silver.

Mr. Otto blinked and seemed to be smiling.

He didn't say anything, but narrowed his eyes quickly and shook his beard: "Go and call her for me, Gao Su."

Gao Su Time Series Kong Lieshu looked at the work.

He probably won't be able to finish today, and he will be tired if he keeps working.

He nodded, and heard Mr. Otto say behind him.

"Come over to our place for lunch with Teresa. I'll be back soon."

Mr. Otto said with a smile.

He walked quickly, with light steps, as if he was afraid of making noise, as if he was afraid of breaking the eternal tranquility.

The popularity of the Huang Empire fell behind, and the breeze blowing from the other side of the horizon stroked the blades of grass. Who can imagine the scenery over there, the outside world is at war, and one's relatives and friends are also victims of that huge killing field, but very quickly. Unexpectedly, just standing here, inexplicably feels at ease.

Gaosu·Time Sequence Empty Trees stepped into the shallow green grass, here is like a clean and refreshing sky, the sheep are grazing blankly, the grass covers the dusty part of their bellies, and the blossoming flowers are soft. White floated like clouds in the green sky.

Very quiet very quiet.

Gao Su Time Sequence Kong Lieshu raised his head, he saw the back of the girl from a distance, she stood quietly in this quiet picture scroll, the clean long skirt was clear and tidy, the boy was a little surprised, he thought she was there again Asleep, she always fell asleep while shepherding the sheep.

The sheep are very obedient. They seem to know that there is a war outside, and they always consciously stay in this quiet and clear green sky, obediently being a simple and lovely cloud.

I don't know why, Teresa's back is very far away from him, and even the tree is very far away. From the perspective of Gao Su·Time Sequence Space Tree, he only feels that this area is as quiet as before. The green grass was a little quiet and strange.

The rustling sound of the sheep chewing and walking seemed to ring in my ears, but the back of the girl was so far away, and the evergreen tree was surprisingly far away.

It is as discordant as a weird symbol that suddenly appears in a harmonious picture.

Gao Su·Time Sequence Kong Lieshu felt that something was wrong, he couldn't help speeding up his pace, he didn't know why, he felt the girl's back was getting farther and farther away, the golden ponytail swaying under her straw hat, and the clean long skirt seemed to be They all went further and further away.

A kind of inexplicable fear emerged from his chest, it was a feeling that he was very familiar with but also very strange, a feeling that he had but forgot.

--lose.

He got scared.

"Jeanne!" he cried.

"Jane!"

His voice was also drowned in the rustling of sheep, and the number of sheep around him increased for no reason. Every breath he took was drowned in the flock, and the transparent sky suddenly ushered in cloudy weather, layers of white Covering the whole piece of greenery.

"Jeanne!" he cried, but found that his own voice was also smiling in the endless rustling.

From a distance, he heard a subtle roar in the rustling sound, like thunder in the night. He heard the howling of wolves one after another. The vision suddenly changed.

The grassland, the sky, the clouds, the flock of sheep, and the distant figure, the distant book, all disappeared in the large smeared black.

"Theresa—?" He finally stopped, raised his head, and looked around, trying to find the girl's back.

He saw the rain of fire falling from the sky, the dry wind blowing across the earth, the lingering blackness in his vision was ignited, distorted, and dispelled by that irresistible force, he saw endless lights rising, he Seeing the verdant land turned into barren scorched earth, the rain of fire and the barren wind blow to the only human habitation on this dry land.

——Huang Empire.

"No..." He clutched his chest.
