Fengyue, this is the name that has been buried in this village since entering this village. Of course, it is not just as simple as making a false name. Even if someone investigates deeply, they will only get a fixed information.

Aged 48 years old, slightly wrinkled and slightly hunchbacked, often coughing, suffering from old diseases, mentally weak and weak from time to time, mentally older than 48 years old, the family has no children, no wife, parents died in the early years Both have died, and they have been doing odd jobs all their lives to support themselves.

"Ahem, I'm sorry, I still let you accompany an old man like me."

"Mr. Fengyue, please don't say that. We are all colleagues, of course we should take care of each other, and it's too polite to apologize to a junior like me."

Walking beside Fengyue is a physically fit young man. His muscular chest muscles are perfectly reflected in the thin white fabric. His piercing eyes seem to contain inexhaustible energy. He is a very suitable for physical exertion engineering guy.

According to the information obtained, this young man is about 25 years old, and he is at the most powerful age in his life, but his body is muscular and strong, and his physique is obviously beyond the ordinary 25-year-old youth. He is a child born in the Kingdom of Swords, and has worked with his parents since he was a child.

After the war, his hometown was destroyed, his parents died and only one person was left. He came here after being rescued by a caravan. The main work of living here is related to building houses.

Fengyue is an old senior who is very skilled in construction engineering. Because she learned about the existence of this place from the mercenary union, she just ran here to work not long ago. Now, Fengyue and this young man are visiting the village together during their shifts.

"Well, although I am a senior in carpentry, I am a complete senior in this place, and I need you as a guide."

"Hahaha, I just came a few weeks earlier than you, and I have been taken care of by my seniors at work. I am just a tour guide. Let me take care of this little thing!"

"Ahem, speaking of which, the buildings here are all different."

The buildings that can be seen are all slightly different in size and shape, but the gap is not completely different according to the wishes of the occupants like the Kingdom of Swords, nor is it that the Magic Kingdom insists on a square shape, and the pointed shape insists on a certain shape.

It is to maintain a certain balance between the two. The street is not rugged because of the buildings, and it can be passed smoothly all the way to the end. There are still some gaps between the buildings, and children can still pass through if they are reluctant.

"Yes, because in addition to smooth flow, I also hope that the aesthetics of the building will not be too rigid."

"But I think there are divisions too? Magicians and swordsmen still can't easily live together."

Hearing Fengyue's words, the young man on the side smiled wryly.

"Indeed, there are. The northeast and southwest sides of the village are obvious examples. One side is full of artistic designs like the Magic Kingdom, and the other side is the free style of the Kingdom of Swords... Although it is strange to say this, I think they will sooner or later. We will live in peace, because this is life.”

"Hey, you're really optimistic."

"Ahaha, after all, although I was born in the Kingdom of Swords, the caravans that saved me during the war were magicians from the Magic Kingdom. They are sometimes proud, but they are actually more caring than anyone else."

Tread, tread, tread...

The young man in charge of guiding subconsciously turned to the right after turning the corner, and the scene printed in his eyes seemed astonished because it was unexpected.

"Ah, Fugetsu-san, I'm sorry, but I came to this kind of place so unexpectedly."

As far as the eye can see, there are a large number of graves that cannot be counted.

The condolence monuments of the Kingdom of Swords and the monuments used in the funerals of the Magic Kingdom are all buried in this land in a certain order, but it seems that there are too many, and at least [-] are also buried on a slightly raised hill. Stele.

From the position of the door of the two of them to the farthest position, the scene in front of them is like the thorns on the skin of a hedgehog.

"Ahem, it's okay. In fact, it's because you're too used to being here, so you came here unconsciously, right? Why don't you take this opportunity to let me know your parents?"

Hearing this sentence, he was stunned for a moment. After slowly digesting what Fengyue said, he couldn't help but reach out and wipe his eyes vigorously, and then said "OK" with a smile.

Walking into the cemetery, the originally noisy environment suddenly became much quieter. Praying mantises and butterflies flying in the air from time to time added color to the gray and white scene.

"I believe Mr. Fengyue is surprised, right? There are so many people buried in this cemetery."

"Well, a little surprised."

In fact, it can not be described simply by "many". In addition to the magician's stele, the entire cemetery also contains a dense number of comfort monuments, which also contain a large number of names.

The scale and number far surpassed the cemetery in the capital of the Kingdom of Swords, double or triple?No matter what, the number of cemeteries in this area is more than that of the entire village.

"There are actually two cemeteries in the village, and the other one is just on the other side of the village."

"Cough, the number of people is a bit strange."

"I think it has something to do with the location of this village. Who said that this place is just about the same distance from the three countries, so it can be said to be the center of the world?"

"What's the meaning?"

"The center of the world can also be said to be a different kind of hell. This is the best place to engage in battles. Wars and small-scale struggles often occur around them. In addition to the large number of casualties caused by these, there are often corpses thrown here to confuse the identities of the dead. "

"Hey, is that why there are so many graves here?"

"Yeah, I think it won't be long before we have to expand again...it just never stops."

A slightly hoarse sad tone came out clearly, but just when Fengyue spoke, the other party raised his head and continued.

"But I believe that it will stop one day, because the residents here can understand each other's life even if they have different identities. They gave me such an idea."

"Son, you are really optimistic."

"Ahaha, is it like this? To be honest, I sometimes think so too."

"Having such a thought may be the answer."

Looking at the young man's hearty smile, even Fengyue faintly evoked a smile as if infected.

tread, tread.

Walking in front of the two inconspicuous ordinary steles, the young man didn't have the usual smile, strictly speaking it was a forced smile, with a lot of sadness on his face.

"Mom and Dad, I brought my seniors from work to see you. Sorry, I didn't bring a gift this time. I will definitely bring one next time."

The young man knelt down and stretched out his hands to gently caress the two stone tablets in front of him.

"Hello, both of you, I'm Mr. Fengyue, I can be regarded as the senior of this little devil's work."

"Ah, Mr. Fengyue, I'm already an adult, and I hope you don't call me a brat."

Ignoring what the young man said, Fengyue continued with a smile.

"I can understand that, affected by the war, a person came to this strange place with no one to rely on, but this child has persisted tenaciously until now."

"Mr. Fengyue..."

"So please rest assured, this child has indeed grown up and become an adult who can take care of himself alone... Please also bless this adult in heaven, and then please treat him as your pride."

"Really, I really don't understand... why Fugetsu-san suddenly said these words."

As if afraid of being discovered by others, the young man rubbed his face vigorously with his whole hand like a rag, and did not move it away for a long time.

"What's the matter? Or do you think you are not qualified to bear my words?"

"This, this...isn't like that, but how should I put it, I feel a little happy."

"Oh?"

"Because...my parents never said that before."

The young man lowered his head deeply, and after covering his face with his right hand, he grabbed a corner of the stele with his left hand.

Fengyue chose to remain silent and let the other party continue talking.

"When I was a child, I really hoped that my parents could praise me like this, and let them say "My dear son, you are my pride". I have been working hard for this sentence, and I hope that one day I can hear them like this Praise... but I can't wait for it in my whole life."

Fengyue gently put her hand on the young man's shoulder and patted it confidently.

"Then you should work harder to live now, so that they can see how alive you are now in heaven."

"Oh, Mr. Fengyue's words are really strange. I'm just a carpenter now. I'm afraid it will be difficult to make my parents proud."

"It's not because of the job of carpentry, but because of the fact that you, including your parents, worked hard to live together."

The young man was startled for a moment, looked at the two stone tablets beside him, couldn't help sobbing, and immediately used his right hand as a rag to cover his slightly red and swollen eyes, and nodded vigorously for several seconds.

"Thank you, Mr. Fengyue, thank you very much."

"Cough, um."

Looking at the name on the stone tablet, the young man said softly "I will come again next time" and quickly stood up.

"Okay, then let's do our best to visit the whole village!"

The loud sound resounded throughout the cemetery, and many birds flew up from the branches in fright, and some dropped bird feces and almost fell on the young man's head, causing him to make a funny "wow" sound in fright.

"Hey, it's just to maintain such enthusiasm."

Tread, tread, tread...

Leaving the cemetery and returning to the street, Fengyue still had a bright smile on her face, no, perhaps even more cheerful than at the beginning.

"Mr. Fengyue, I really want to thank you."

"Ahem, you're welcome."

"No, I really want to thank you very much, because since I met you, I feel more and more that I can live a good life."

"Cough, then I would also like to thank you, there is a brat like you who is willing to accompany me around this village all the time."

Instead of countering back with the usual "Ahhh, call me a brat again", the young man obviously fell silent.

"Cough, what's wrong?"

"Ah? No, no, it's nothing, um, I don't know if I should say some things, after all, it is forbidden to meddle in other people's past in this village."

"Well, it's okay, just ask if you have any questions."

"Haha, it's actually not a big deal, but... I always feel that Mr. Fengyue is very powerful. He can always easily see through my inner thoughts, as if everything about me has been known by you. I think this must be senior. Have you experienced it?"

tread.

Fengyue stopped suddenly and looked at the young man beside her expressionlessly.

"Mr. Fengyue?"

"Actually, my identity is the monarch of the intelligence family Empiri. You can easily get everything. I came here mainly to investigate something."

As the words fell, a dead silence permeated between the two, only the noisy sounds around them kept ringing.

"puff."

After a few seconds, the young man made a funny sound and laughed like a switch was turned on.

"Mr. Fengyue can also joke! How could such a big man come to a small village like ours that has not been developed for a long time? And he would volunteer to do construction projects? Mr. Fengyue's joke is too exaggerated! Hahahaha!"

"Ahem, sorry, I didn't expect your reaction to be so big."

"Of course! Anyone who was born in the Kingdom of Sword must know about the mysterious monarch. I think he must be busy with information about the Kingdom of Sword right now?"

Listening to such content, Fengyue maintained her usual smile, and said in her own voice, "Your reaction is really within expectations."

Tread, tread, tread...

Suddenly there was the sound of hurried running from a distance, looking along the source of the sound, several "patrols" with weapons quickly crossed the street.

The patrol team in this village is mainly composed of mercenaries, magicians, and swordsmen. Its responsibilities include resolving disputes, subduing criminals, and protecting the people. It is characterized by a silver badge hanging on its chest.

Seeing these people approaching, the residents including Fengyue and others gave way for them to pass.

"The village chief is in danger. If you hear other patrol members, go to the central pool and gather!"

"Summon powerful mercenaries, magicians, and swordsmen, and go to the pool to help as soon as possible!"

"A major incident has happened, and the village chief is in danger!"

When the shouting words of the patrol team members ran reached the ears of the residents on the street—including the young man next to Fengyue, everyone's faces turned pale instantly, and their unsurprising faces were full of solemnity and horror.

"No, I'm going too. I'm powerful anyway, so I have to help!"

"and many more."

"Fugetsu-san, please stay here! I have to hurry! The village chief—the hope of this village is in danger!"

"I'll go too."

"what?"

"I am also a resident here, so naturally I have to contribute."

"But……"

"Ahem, don't underestimate the wisdom of seniors."

"Ha, haha, yes, Fengyue-san has always been very powerful, so please follow my speed!"

"Um."

This young man is serious.

Clear information was clearly transmitted into Fengyue's brain through sight, and at the same time, the almost inherent contradiction, that is, "doubt" also arose.

Both Fengyue and the residents here look up to that village very much, which can be found from the very beginning of living here.

In fact, even Fengyue himself gradually believed in the village chief because of this atmosphere, thinking that such a great existence could build the village properly and pass the many tests in the future.

It was only through the clear and serious eyes of this young man that Feng Yuecong had doubts about his trust in the village chief.

It is not to question the ability of the village chief or the leadership of all the people in the village. The strength of the village chief can be clearly seen through the environment and the residents.

Fengyue just simply remembered that name.

Shit Nokana, the name of a serious criminal in this country of swords, she is the village head here.
