They were waiting for the boat on the fifth day. When Simon led a group of people to get off the boat, Yu Fu was sitting on the beach, holding a conch that Auston got from somewhere, in a daze, and suddenly his eyes went dark. , a sea eagle swooped down, almost scratching his ears with its fluttering wings, and when it landed on the ground, it turned its head to look at him coldly, and after making sure that he was all right, it flapped its wings and flew away.

"Eden!" Simon, dressed in a neat uniform, strode towards him.

Yu Fu stood up slowly, and just as he stood up straight, he was hugged into his arms.

Simon hugged him tightly, incoherently excited: "I finally found you! Are you okay? Are you injured..."

Yu Fu was hit by his cannonball-like questions, with a signature smile on his face, he raised his hand and patted Simon's shoulder, and pushed away without a trace: "I'm fine."

Unexpectedly, Simon hugged him even tighter, buried his head on his shoulder, and said in a voice full of fear, "I was scared to death. I thought I would never see you again."

After landing on the island that day, Simon searched the entire island, but couldn't find Eden. He asked several pirates to interrogate him, but they didn't know what to ask. They shoveled up all the land on the island and searched it. After a while, they found that Auston was also missing. After several investigations, they learned that a pirate ship fled in the chaos. They guessed that Eden and the others might have gotten on board, so they went to They began to search around, but then encountered a storm, and the fleet was almost wiped out. When the weather calmed down, they searched again, but there was no trace.

He has been frantically searching the sea for the past few days, worrying and regretting why he involved Eden in this dispute. He is an outsider, and he should have been sitting elegantly and comfortably drinking tea in his manor instead of being buried in the In the cold salty sea water.

During the long days when Eden disappeared, Simon seemed to be immersed in a jar called regret. The sour and astringent liquid invaded his skin and entered his blood vessels, spreading the pain and suffering to every part of his body, peeling off The body corrodes the internal organs.

The restless search made him exhausted, but he dared not close his eyes, because when he closed his eyes, bits and pieces about that person would automatically appear in his mind.

Eden has always been noble and calm, handsome and unmatched, sometimes personable, sometimes cold and alienated. Simon felt that he was special from the first moment he saw him. He seemed to have an ancient and mysterious magic power that made people I couldn't help but want to explore and get to know this person better. Simon was just curious at first, and made every effort to become friends with him.

But the more he didn't understand, the more he was attracted. Simon didn't know when his curiosity changed, and it became another emotion that even he didn't want to believe.

Feeling the real person in his arms, and even comfortingly hugging himself back, Simon's anxiety dissipated, and he was satisfied and thankful. At the same time, he felt a sense of urgency to express something quickly. His intuition told him that there are some things If you don't say it again, you won't have a chance to say it again.

Simon closed his bloodshot eyes and took a deep breath: "Eden, I..."

"Simon." A very faint voice came, "You should let go, I'm afraid this gesture is inappropriate in front of your subordinates."

Simon was taken aback, and raised his head. Oston passed through the crowd with a calm expression. Nothing could be seen in his indifferent eyes, but there was a faint sense of oppression.

Simon unconsciously let go of Eden, and saw Auston coming over, standing in front of Eden, took the conch in his hand, and said like no one else: "I just wove a rope, which is just right to wear it. Do you want to try it?"

Yu Fu smiled, "Okay, try it."

Alston also laughed, and nimbly passed a rope through the hole at the end of the conch with his fingers, neatly tied a knot, and hung it around Yu Fu's neck, "How is it?"

Yu Fu lowered his head, picked it up and looked around, regretfully said: "Tsk, it's too big, not very beautiful."

Auston raised his eyebrows, and raised his hand to scrape his earlobe, with gentle eyes, he said helplessly, "Will you choose?"

The two just talked to each other like this, completely ignoring the people around them. The navy looked at each other, not understanding what was going on in front of them, and Simon's face became more and more ugly.

After leaving for more than a month, Yu Fu finally returned to the city of Witlands. He was supposed to follow the army into the city with Auston Simon, but he didn't want to be too ostentatious, so he returned home in a low-key manner early.

As soon as he entered the door, a petite figure rushed over. Yu Fu was caught off guard and caught her in a hurry, but the little girl complained in a crying voice: "Eden doesn't want me anymore!"

Yu Fu was taken aback, "Huh? How come?"

Lilith's face was flushed from crying, she looked up at him, and the golden beans rushed out like she didn't want money, and said loudly: "You clearly said you wouldn't leave me, but this time you've been away for so long, leaving me here alone !"

Yu Fu was rendered speechless by her yelling, so he could only soften his voice to coax him. From time to time, he turned his eyes to Tracy who was watching the play for help. Tracy was smiling, folded her hands in front of her, and kept A good etiquette gesture, not moving like a mountain but smiling.

Destroying several well-known pirate groups and successfully sending the ambassador and his wife back to Flourance, Simon and Auston contributed a lot. For the next period of time, they were busy with their feet on the ground, dealing with various follow-up matters and After accepting the award, the two became famous for a while, and even spread to the next door Flouance with the ambassador and his wife.

Yu Fu is free again, reading books at home, occasionally taking time to visit the property under his name, attending an innocuous party, or putting on a gardener's suit and tending the garden by himself. His life is very relaxed and comfortable.

He set up a swing for Lilith in the garden, and asked her to invite friends to the manor for gatherings. Lilith's piano skills have become more and more sophisticated. Listen to Lilith playing the violin under the rose trellis in the manor.

In the middle of the night, a crescent moon hangs high in the sky, and a few rays of starlight flicker. In the rose bushes that have not bloomed at the end of summer, Yu Fu sits on a swing, with an open book on his knees, and the night wind blows However, the pages of the book rustled and were immediately pressed down by a hand with sharp knuckles.

The dim night did not hinder the vampire's vision. Yu Fu turned a page, and the flowers and leaves behind him seemed to tremble. , is it impolite?"

The person behind chuckled, and posted it slowly: "I thought Mr. was staying up late at night, and he was waiting for me."

Yu Fu didn't look back, tapped his finger on the page: "I heard that the Earl and the Commodore drew their swords today, what's the matter?"

Auston's eyes were full of light, pretending to be surprised: "Sir, don't you understand?"

Yu Fu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a half-smile: "I should understand?"

Auston walked up to him slowly, looked down at him, his eyes were as deep as the sea: "It is rumored that there is a kind of beast, and the male beast will only have one partner in its life, but whoever chooses it will not allow others to covet it, otherwise it will be married to you with your life." Fighting, not dying, I think people are like this."

Yu Fu: "Oh?"

"Those who covet me, naturally have to see if they have the ability." Oston raised his hand to caress the face of the person in front of him, and bent slightly to approach, looking at this face that is more attractive than a red rose, dazzled, The azure ocean churned out whirlpools and surges, and he couldn't help sighing softly: "Eden, you are so charming."

Yu Fu's amber eyes flashed with glass luster, and he hooked his lips: "Is this a crime? Are you here to punish me now?"

"Yes." Alston nodded, "You should be punished..." Before he finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed those lips that were as beautiful as rose petals.

The swing was swaying gently, the moonlight was fading, not far away rose bushes were swaying with the wind, and a few petals were overwhelmed, shaking off the ground and turning red...

Lilith woke up again in the middle of the night. She sat up in a daze, dazed for a moment, then went to the ground with bare feet, and opened the door. There was no one in the corridor.

She found Eden's room familiarly and knocked on the door: "Eden?"

No one answered.

Lilith tilted her head in doubt. In the past, Eden would open the door for her at this time. Did he fall asleep?

She gently opened the door, and the curtains of the wide open windows floated, and the night breeze passed through the hall, sending a scent of roses.

There was no one in the room.

Lilith frowned, glanced at the neat big bed, and for some reason, she slowly came to the window, leaning on the edge of the window and standing on tiptoe.

The window was facing the garden, and there were two entangled figures beside the swing frame. Lilith was motionless, and the window screen fluttered lightly, brushing her expressionless face.

Yu Fu opened his eyes and raised them between kisses, feeling inexplicably spied on, looking over Auston's staggered face and looking around, sweeping the dense flowers and window sills, there was nothing unusual about it.

"What?" Auston rubbed his cheek with his fingers, narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced behind him.

"fine."

The moon is short and the moon is full, the flowers bloom and fall, and it will be another three years in a blink of an eye.

In the past three years, Yu Fu's business has grown bigger and bigger, covering all parts of the country. As for Auston, he has traveled here and there in endless wars, made countless military exploits, and the cavalry regiment has grown stronger and stronger. The surrounding scenery is infinite.

However, this is not a good thing. No king of that country is willing to see his subjects so strong. Yu Fu is well versed in the principle of flying birds to make good bows. To put it bluntly, how could someone else be allowed to snore on the side of the couch, and a little carelessness was enough to cause Auston to be smashed to pieces.

Auston himself understood, but he had to be strong. The old Duke passed away in a sudden illness last year. He passed away too unexpectedly and suddenly. Many things were not arranged well. The idiot Leon, who has always regarded him as a thorn in his side, has become the new Duke. With his higher title, he makes things difficult for him everywhere. What makes him even more angry is that there are secret scandals in the palace, and the king has an affair with the wife of a minister. , my sister was struggling in the palace.

He must be strong in order to be the last support of the queen and the little prince.

Perhaps it was a bad year, and this year there were frequent wars. Not long after a war subsided, there was even worse news—the terrible Black Death broke out in neighboring countries, quickly killing countless people, and the virus had spread to border cities.

The horror effect brought by this news aroused the shadows of countless people. The Black Death raged wildly 100 years ago, and almost all the people in Witlands died. Bring endless fear of death.

The whole country fell into madness. Tens of thousands of people were burned to death as the source of virus transmission. The dust falling on the ground is not so much a sacred exorcism ceremony, but more like a black mass for a demon carnival.

In the central cathedral of Witlands, the messenger who had disappeared for many years returned. His slender body was wrapped in red clothes, with blond hair shawl, and emerald green eyes full of compassion.

The archbishop bowed his head devoutly, not daring to look directly at him: "My lord, why have we fallen into darkness and fear?"

The messenger came out of the shadows, wearing dazzling holy light, and compassionately said: "God loves the world, but there is a traitor among us, who violated God's rules, and the gods sent down punishments and made our homeland a hell..."

The shadow of the Black Death grew stronger with the spread of death. Just when the people of the city were panicking, the central cathedral announced that the source of the plague was the sins of everyone, and publicly sold indulgences. Fighting for a paper coupon that can atone for all sins and avoid going to hell.

Yu Fu didn't expect that the fire would burn himself. When the church army surrounded his manor, he was pruning rose branches.

This indiscriminate disaster was too successful, the manor was quickly confiscated, and he was sentenced to death without trial. The strong cage could not trap the vampire, and he carried the sleeping Lilith out of the church prison covered in blood, only in time After saying goodbye to Alston, he left Witlands without stopping.

This walk is half a year.

In the past six months, Yu Fu has been rounded up countless times, but fortunately, he was out of danger. In the end, the hunt faded away, and he finally found a quiet town to settle down.

Fortunately, he was well prepared, even if he fled, life would not be too embarrassing.

The house is much smaller than before, but the environment is elegant, and Tracy is still able to take care of everything well.

Lilith has grown into a beautiful young girl, as delicate and bright as a newly bloomed flower. She often loves to go to the grasslands in the countryside, play the violin for the herdsmen, sing and dance with the peasant girls, and Yu Fu often hears her laughter.

When Lilith came home that day, she saw Eden was sealing a letter, and noticed that the ring on his hand was gone again, the smile on his face faded, and a gloomy thought flashed in her heart: how could that man not dead yet?

Over the years, she had noticed that as long as the man named Auston went to the battlefield, the ring on Eden's hand would disappear, and it would not reappear until he came back, year after year, every time. .

She once told Eden half-jokingly that she liked the ring very much, implying that he gave it to him, but Eden just smiled, changed the subject subtly, and then asked her what she liked, no matter what, as long as within his ability.

But all she wanted was that ring.

"I'm back." Yu Fu looked up at her and smiled, "How are you playing?"

Lilith blinked and smiled obediently. There was no trace of haze on her delicate face, and her voice was sweet: "Very happy! Mr. Smith's sheep gave birth to lambs, and he gave me a bucket of goat milk."

Yu Fu nodded, pointing to a small desk next to him: "Since you're having fun, shouldn't it be time to do your homework?"

Lilith pouted playfully, walked to the back of the table in a bouncing manner, and began to do her homework obediently.

Yu Fu quietly raised his eyes to look at her, seeing her frowning in distress, and jumping in joy at other times, with a very lively expression, he nodded secretly: Well, this child has finally become lively, so many years of hard work have not been in vain.

It's just... Occasionally there is a sense of disobedience, I hope he is thinking too much.

Thinking of Auston instead, he couldn't help but frown.

In the city of Witlands, Alston's life has not been easy recently.

Leon is an out-and-out fool. He spent a lot of money not long after he took office. The status of the Westminster family is in jeopardy, and it is getting worse day by day. Auston taught him a lesson in anger, but instead of changing, Leon joined forces Outsiders attacked him, saying that he was ambitious and coveted his elder brother's position as head of the family, and he might be related to the death of the old duke.

Auston had a hard time saying it, and many people came out to add insult to injury, even the church came forward to accuse him of obstructing the arrest of fugitives. Harris, whose fingers had been cut off by him, smiled sullenly, taking the opportunity to stir up trouble in front of the king.

The crowd danced happily, but Auston could only hold back, he had to hold his breath, otherwise not only himself, but also the queen and the little prince would be hurt.

And at this moment, the northern war broke out again.

Auston was summoned into the palace as expected, the king was much more kind, instead of sneering, he patted him on the shoulder to reassure him that when he returned triumphantly, all the troubles in front of him would be solved.

Finally, the king said gently: "Go and see your sister before you leave, you two haven't seen each other for a long time."

Catherine was haggard a lot, and she probably had to make up to see him, but her sunken eye sockets betrayed her fragility. Auston felt sorry for her, but he had no choice but to do his best to make her feel better.

There was not much time, so the siblings could only make a long story short. Auston felt that his sister seemed uneasy, but he couldn't ask anything. Before leaving the palace, Catherine took out a bottle of wound medicine as usual, but hesitated a little when handing it to him. , he hurried back to the barracks, and missed the moment when he turned around, the pain and guilt flashed across Catherine's face.
