Twilight War

03

Huang Xuanjin came to Sheng Qiangwei Palace hungry, and was lying on the table in a daze weakly, when he saw Yilier coming over with a lunch box.

After robbing Yilier of a box of meals, Huangxuan Jin looked at Yilier with unsatisfactory eyes, "Honey, why don't you split up with the leader and let me compete with him fairly. I will pay for this meal." I have to marry you home!"

After speaking, he raised his head and looked at Yilier with winking eyes like silk, those peach blossom eyes were almost as bright as ever.

It’s not been a day or two since he verbally molested Yilier. Every time the leader saw him, he would beat him up until he couldn’t tell the difference between one, two, three, and four. But this habit still can’t be changed, maybe this is Human inferiority.

"You just want to eat my food," Eliel said.

"Isn't that the same thing? If someone can cook for me when I go home, I'll marry him!" Huangxuanjin said, "Just say yes or no. , if you allow me to compete fairly with the leader, I will definitely be able to chase that guy out of breath, and by then, you will be mine!"

After finishing speaking, Huangxuan Jin lowered his head to deeply clean the vegetable leaves stuck to the side of the lunch box, when he suddenly heard Yilier say, "Okay."

Huang Xuanjin suddenly raised his head, "No, I heard that right! I really have hope! Have you seen the affectionate soul under my unruly appearance?"

Eliel shook his head, "Because even if I do it again, I will still choose the leader."

Sure enough, no one paid attention to the affectionate soul under Huangxuan Jin's unruly appearance.

Whether that soul is deeply affectionate or not is unknown for the time being, Huangxuanjin only thinks that his soul is completely shattered, but Huangxuanjin still upholds the will not to hit the south wall, not to look back, and not to die until the Yellow River, You struggled again and said, "You really... don't think about it anymore?"

"The head of the group is different from others. No matter how many times I come back, no matter how I choose him, I will choose him." Yilier said, "I remember that Donghuang was a month old, and my red thread tied him. I can't see it, but I know the red line is there. It's a lifetime to wind the red line."

"You...how are you so sure you didn't tie my hands?" Huang Xuanjin was still struggling, like a dying fish that could only spit bubbles, "Yue Lao is very old, and his eyes may not be very good. "

"Then I'll grab it too." Huang Xuanjin suddenly felt a chill behind him, and when he turned his head slowly, he saw the tall and burly captain looking at him with a smile. "And I will remember to tell Yuelao that this Huangxuanjin is a scumbag, so tie him a hag!"

Huangxuanjin was beaten again and the score was unclear. One, two, three, four.

After being beaten up, Huang Xuanjin was thrown back on his seat by the head of the group. The head tidied up his cuffs, "Be careful if you hear it lately."

"What's the matter? Isn't it quite peaceful recently?" Huang Xuanjin said as he straightened his crumpled cuffs.

"Huangxuanjin, are you pretending to be stupid or do you really know nothing?" Mendun frowned.

"Hmm, what's up."

"Now everyone can see that something is going to happen. Arthur has always hoped that the two countries can cooperate, and the Privy Council ministers in Varner generally support cooperation. But the Queen does not want the two countries to reach a cooperative relationship. In the past few months, the Queen Has been seeking...an agreement with the elders of Varna."

Huang Xuanjin knew that the so-called seeking consensus meant that the two sides were fighting hard, so he almost slapped the table and started doing it.

"I don't know how many large and small meetings have been held recently. You still feel calm. You have to have a strong wind and waves to blow up the house to feel it."

Huang Xuanjin scratched his forehead, "I didn't pay much attention."

"You are an officer of the Guards! You don't pay attention to such an important matter? What do you pay attention to every day? How many copper coins do you sell the green onions in front of your house?"

"I really don't know this, but I know that milk costs ten copper coins a glass, and the one below the door is more expensive than others by one copper coin."

"I'm not interested in your milk!"

"Okay." Huangxuan Jin nodded weakly, and then said somewhat unwillingly, "But don't you really think that milk is also very important? Especially the one at the door is actually one copper coin more expensive."

Mendun ignored Huangxuanjin, "From the current situation, it is estimated that the queen will prevail in the end. I am afraid that there will be another war at that time. It has been three years since the second Twilight Battle, The flame of war never goes out, it just sits dormant, and this time it will be a prairie war."

"It won't require me to go to the battlefield, what should I care about." Huang Xuanjin waved his hand, "I'm afraid it would be more practical for me to care about how much milk is worth."

"Do you understand what I'm going to say?" The leader suddenly looked a little angry.

Huang Xuanjin looked at the group leader who had something gloomy between his brows and smiled.

"At that time, Arthur and Vanaker will have a hostile relationship. In order to mobilize the mood of war, the whole country will definitely publicize the theory of Arthur's hostility. There is no emotion that is easier to mobilize than hatred and anger. You are from Arthur. , when the time comes, there will definitely be more people who don't like you than before, and I'm afraid you will have a worse time than now."

"Your situation will be very difficult. The queen is a resolute main fighter, and may not be able to protect you at that time." The head of the group said with a frown.

"That's it." Huang Xuanjin said, he smiled, his peach blossom eyes were slightly curved. "It's not the first time. Don't forget, I was originally a traitor of Donghuang. I came here after betraying Arthur. I have experience in this matter." Huangxuan Jin looked down at his fingers.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"I don't know." Huang Xuanjin shook his head.

"That's your experience."

"Yes." Huang Xuanjin said.

He didn't know what to do then, and he still doesn't know now.In fact, he has never made any choices on his own. Looking around, there is no road in front of him, and he doesn't even know how to walk.

He has never set foot on a path by himself, his path is given by others, and he will walk on a path given to him by others, and if he cannot walk on, another person will give him another path.

And he didn't even have the right to choose not to leave.

"Thank you." Huang Xuanjin said to the leader.

There was nothing to do in the afternoon, Huang Xuanjin took the coat on the chair and put it on his body and wanted to go out.

"Huangxuanjin, what happened back then?" the team leader looked at Huangxuanjin's back and asked. "Why did you betray the Kingdom of Donghuang and join the Arthur Empire, and why did you betray the Arthur Empire in the second twilight battle?"

"What did it have to do with what happened back then?" Huang Xuanjin smiled, wrapping his coat tightly around his body.

The team leader frowned and looked at Huangxuan Jin who was wrapped in a coat and walked out. The back of the boy wrapped in a coat seemed to be a bit shrunken. But sometimes looking at him like this, I feel that he is lonely and lonely from the back, like a dog who has been bereaved.Makes one want to throw him a bone.

The head of the group looked back at his own Yilier, and sure enough, his own wife was the best.

Huangxuanjin didn't go far when he heard a shocking shout behind him, "Huangxuanjin, how dare you eat my food!"

Huangxuanjin was waiting for Wellings' train on the side of the road. The weather was getting cooler, and the exhaled fog was mixed with the thick fog in Wellings, making people think that the fog in the sky was just the cooling of the whole city. breathe.

Huang Xuanjin shrank back a little afraid of the cold.

After getting on the car, Huangxuanjin threw two copper coins into the box in front of the car, and found a seat at the back. The heavy rail car exhaled the silver-white mist after burning the silver of the great abyss into the entire sky. The car moved up slowly, and the fog that entered the high place covered the glass in milky white.

He put his hands in his pockets, and his hands were a little cold on such a cold day.

Someone in the car looked at the newly printed newspaper, which revealed a huge black ink headline - The Final Showdown of the Main War and the Main Peace.

"Turning of the Nation's Destiny", "Great Power Politics", and "Ultimatum" are turning over and over in the hands of men.

The ink was on the thumbs of the men turning the newspapers.

The men in the car chatted about Varner's recent political trends, and then began to talk about the beautiful new female workers in the factory, about his wife's violent temper, and about the huge price increase. silver.

Those on the edge of the vortex tried their best to get close to the center of the vortex, trying to spy on what was happening at the very center.They talked about the rise and fall of the entire empire, the struggle between the queen and the elders, how to do the war of resistance, like talking about the dishes at the door, a few copper coins a catty.

But there are always some people who are clearly in the center of the vortex but just quietly look out the window.

Huang Xuanjin remembered that when he was in Chen Temple, he always seemed to be unable to keep up with other seniors.He is always paying attention to those insignificant things that should not be cared about. The Zen master asked them to turn the scriptures to the sentence that everything is false, but he just looks at the cicadas outside the window and the changing sky outside the window.When everyone started to read the next page, he looked at the sentence that all appearances are false.

When the Zen master asked them to line up in front of the steps, he just looked at the leaves being blown by the wind, and the sunlight falling on the bluestone steps from between the books. When he finished reading, he was the only one left in the whole open space. people.

Isabel said that Huangxuan Jin's focus is always wrong, he always only looks at his cloud and his leaf.The second twilight battle was the rise of all heroes and the chaos of the kings. It was a change and alternation of power, a struggle, and a battle.The Ring of the Nibelung, that should be what everyone wants to pursue, and the destruction of the gods and Loki, that is the focus of all.

But what he has been struggling with is only the Huangxuan family.

He couldn't see the decline of the Eastern Yellow Kingdom, he couldn't see the ambition and hegemony of King Changgeng, and he couldn't see the end of everyone's pursuit.

It was originally a battle, a competition, a plunder, and a conquest.

But he only wanted to protect, only wanted not to lose.

But he has no other way except trying his best to hold on to everything he is afraid of losing, like a child who is afraid of being robbed of candy by others.

So in the end, he was the only one left.

After getting off the rail car, Huang Xuanjin bought two oranges at the fruit stand on the side of the road. The oranges in the wooden crate looked very good.Huang Xuanjin held the kraft paper bag and said to the fruit seller girl with flaxen braids, "Beautiful sister, help me pick up two."

"They're all the same, don't worry, they're all very sweet." The girl lowered her head and smiled, with thin freckles on the side of her face.

"But I always feel that the oranges held by a beautiful young lady are sweeter." Huang Xuanjin said with two pairs of watery peach blossom eyes.

The girl lowered her head in embarrassment, bit her lip and helped Huangxuan Jin pick out two oranges.

Huangxuan Jin went upstairs with a bag full of oranges. As soon as he went up the stairs, he could smell the smell of food that rarely appeared on the black tower that had been dead for thousands of years.

"I haven't picked up snails to go home recently. Could it be that the stones I picked up a few days ago have turned into spirits?" Huang Xuanjin muttered blankly holding the orange bag.

"Girl Stone, I'm back!"

As soon as Huangxuan Jin ran upstairs, he saw the stone girl who had become a spirit standing by the kitchen in an apron, her silver-white long hair tied up, as virtuous and virtuous as she could be.

"Vichpel, you...how did you pry my door!"

"You didn't lock the door." Wisipel said lightly, took the orange from Huangxuan Jin's hand, washed it and put it on a plate, as naturally as possible.

"Then you can't either..."

"You're injured, I'll leave when you recover." Wihipel put a cup of warm water on Huangxuan Jin's hand, his palm was slightly warm.

Huangxuanjin looked at Vichypel who was skillfully busy in the kitchen and felt so angry that he was about to vomit blood and couldn't say anything. He couldn't let someone else cook halfway and drive him out.

After looking at it for a long time, I could only pick up an orange, made a cross with a knife angrily and peeled off the pulp. I frowned sourly after taking a bite. Sure enough, even with the blessing of a beautiful lady, it still didn’t work. .

Wisipel dug out another orange from the plate, ran his thin and beautiful fingers across the red orange peel, and then replaced the one in Huangxuan Jin's hand, "This one is sweeter."

Huangxuanjin peeled the orange, and it turned out to be more than a little sweeter than the one just now. He raised his head and asked Vichypel, "How did you choose?"

Wisipel didn't speak, but raised his head and rubbed Huangxuan Jin's hair with his hands, with a smile on his lips.

Huangxuanjin thought while eating the oranges, there must be some reason why the oranges taken by the beautiful young lady are sweeter, but it has to be a peerless beauty like Vichypel.
