Time turns to ashes, stars turn to ashes.

——"Eda Fragments"

01

It was early morning, but the sky over the sea was still covered with a thick layer of blue-black, like endless blue ink.

The huge ship, like a prostrate steel monster, stopped in front of Zichen and the man, and the wooden ship ladder was lowered from the ship.

"Let's go."

The sea breeze in the morning was chilly, Zichen clutched his gray cloak tightly in his hands, and followed the man onto the boat.

The only wooden ones are horizontal boards, and from the visible gaps of the horizontal boards, you can see the black sea water like an undercurrent.Halfway through the walk, the crows behind him suddenly flew in disorder.

Zichen stood in the middle of the boat ladder and looked back. The gray and white cloak that was pulled between his collars was blown by the confused sea breeze, and it fluttered in the blue-black sky, like bird wings fluttering in disorder. Black half-length short hair Also blinded by the wind.

The sky and the earth are tides, and the crows are gone.

The man looked back at the boy, "What's wrong?"

The boy shook his head, "It's nothing." Then he tightened the cloak on his body, the man wrapped his arms around the boy's thin shoulders, and led the boy up the boat ladder.

Maybe it took a long time for the young man to understand that even an ant beast would be vigilant and uneasy when an unknown fate was about to happen.And at that moment, he seemed to see an indistinct fate coming towards him.

But, he didn't know, that was fate.

02

It was almost noon when Huang Xuanjin woke up again, and the sunlight outside the window shone in almost blindingly.He put his arms over his eyes with some discomfort.

He only remembered that he threw himself into Vehipel's arms desperately last night, and he couldn't remember the rest.

But at this moment, he is like a drunken maniac who suddenly wakes up in the daylight, without yesterday's recklessness, only the chaos left behind after the madness.

Huang Xuanjin recognized that this was the room of Paradise Lost, and his body had been washed, but he still felt a faint pain.

But I can't remember everything from last night anyway, only the vague and almost cool smell of catnip is still lingering around.

Huangxuan Jin tapped his head with his hand, which was still not so clear after being drunk, my God, what happened last night, it's lucky that he didn't die on this bed.

"Wake up." A charming voice suddenly came from behind the silk curtain on the other side of the room.

Huang Xuanjin hurriedly looked behind the silk curtain in the room, the black widow was leaning gracefully on the chair.

Huang Xuanjin quickly looked back and forth at the Black Widow and the stained bed sheet several times, and then quickly covered his chest, "Sister, last night, it couldn't be you! What did you do to me!"

"Put your hands down, I don't have that leisurely elegance." The black widow exhaled a puff of smoke ring, "I just saw that Vichypel left, so I came to see if you were dead. After all, based on what you did back then, Vichy It’s good that Hipper didn’t kill you directly. It’s a miracle that you survived so well.”

"If he wanted to kill me, he would have killed me long ago. As for waiting until now." Huang Xuanjin smiled, stepped off the bed, gasped in pain as soon as he took a step, and frowned.

The black widow swept Huangxuan Jin up and down with her gaze, and there were ambiguous hickey marks all over Huang Xuan Jin's body, especially the inner thighs, which were already bloodstained.

The black widow smiled while holding a bong, "Vichpel really wants to eat your flesh and sleep on your skin."

The room of Paradise Lost quite interestingly placed the bathtub in an open corner, with only a Doric classical marble column next to it.

Huang Xuanjin poured some water, stepped in directly, hissed in pain as soon as he entered, and then lay down in pain enduring the pain like masochistic.

The black widow held the wine glass and leaned against the cushion, looking elegantly at Huang Xuanjin thrashing about in the bathtub without any aesthetic feeling. "By the way, why did you provoke Vehipel again?"

Huang Xuanjin frowned in pain in the water, and said with an aggrieved face: "I really didn't take the initiative to provoke him, this time it was just an accident."

After a brief wash, Huangxuan Jin stood up from the bathtub, wrapped herself in a towel casually, and sat down opposite the Black Widow.

The black widow pushed the plate on the table in front of Huangxuan Jin, on which there was a glass of milk, sliced ​​eggs, and a few slices of bread. "Eat it, it should be left by Vichypel."

Huangxuanjin ate directly without any hesitation, and Vihipel still had a bit of conscience, although he was tortured to death a lot last night, he still had a bit of humanity.

After taking a few mouthfuls, Huang Xuanjin suddenly felt a tearing pain in his lips, and when he touched it, he found that it had been bitten open, and there was still some blood oozing.

Huangxuanjin covered his lips and threw the knife and fork away. Damn it, Vichypel has no conscience at all, he must be trying to kill me.

The black widow sneered as she looked at Huang Xuanjin who was in pain.

"By the way, sister, is it possible that the white rose has no effect?" Huang Xuanjin suddenly said to the black widow as if remembering.

The black widow swept Huangxuanjin up and down several times, and then sighed as if seeing a fool, "Huangxuanjin, you won't give Vehipel medicine."

Seeing Huangxuanjin bowed her head and said nothing, the black widow shook her head, "Huangxuanjin, you really did it on your own. You've done it yourself, you can't live."

"It's not what I want to use, it was given to me by the witch!"

"Really?" Black Widow smiled, "I just watched you pounce on Vichypel like a gangster."

"You've seen it before, don't you hurry up and save me! Are you my own sister!" Huang Xuanjin patted the table and stood up, glaring at the black widow.

The black widow raised her head and swept at Huangxuan Jin, who licked the corners of her mouth and smiled cowardly, "It is my blessing to have a sister like you. Well, really."

Black Widow withdrew her gaze and exhaled, "At that time, it was clear that you had been taking advantage of Vichypel, how could I stop it."

"Whisper hasn't responded all this time?"

"Anyway, he has been drinking wine very calmly, and he asked you to touch him around without any movement. He didn't carry you upstairs until he finished drinking."

Huangxuan Jin said with a trembling voice, "A whole glass... have you drank it all?"

Black Widow nodded, "Yes."

"You don't stop him, don't you know that someone will die!"

"I saw that he was very calm at the time. I thought he was annoyed by your harassment, so I found a corner where no one was around and castrated you."

Huang Xuanjin weakly gnawed on a slice of bread, "You just let me fall into the hands of beasts..."

"Be content, Vehipel is a beast in clothes even if he is a beast, look, he has prepared breakfast for you." The black widow smiled and knocked on the breakfast in front of Huangxuan Jin.

"He's trying to fatten me up. When will he kill me again?"

"Okay, how much medicine did you take last night." The black widow lowered her head and took a puff of her slender bong.

Huang Xuanjin took a sip of the milk, "Well, the witch gave me a whole petal, and then... just put it all in."

The black widow supported her forehead, "Forget it, you did it yourself. It's your fate to get out of bed alive."

"But Vichypel really didn't react at all at the time. Could it be that the medicine didn't work for him? Huang Xuanjin said seriously.

The black widow looked at Huang Xuanjin, leaned back on the back of the chair, held her left arm in her right hand, and held a bong in her left hand. Her eyes were blurred. Huangxuanjin understood that the black widow had reached such an age and still had so many talents. She is obsessed, she is like a poppy hidden behind the smoke, beautiful and coquettish but inaccessible.

She smiled, but it made people feel that she was a little further away from this world, "Maybe."

"But can you tell me why your anxious look was no different from being hit by White Rose last night?"

"Hehe... this one?" Huangxuan Jin smiled meanly, "I have to go, the queen still needs me!"

Huang Xuanjin quickly picked up the clothes on the ground and ran out. "Goodbye, sister!"

The black widow bit her bong lightly, but she still looked at the ground. The sun shone through the silk curtains embroidered with roses, casting shadowy patterns on the ground, like roses scattered all over the ground.

Huang Xuanjin's clothes that were thrown to the ground just now were not torn in any way, and even all the buttons were intact.

She could even imagine how Vehipel meticulously and patiently unbuttoned every button of Huang Xuanjin's military uniform, and then threw the clothes on the ground.So calm, it was like undergoing an operation.

Or a ceremony.

But in this way, Vichypel obviously drank a whole glass of wine with White Rose.

Such a person is terrifying like a bottomless abyss of ice.

It was already very late when Huang Xuanjin ran to the Holy Rose Palace, but it was too common for him to be late or even absent.Even the leader of the Garter Guards, Mendul, just glanced at him with a little annoyance and didn't bother to say anything.

Anyway, this position is nothing to him.

This office is honorable and sacred to all aspiring noble youths.

Guarding the safety of members of the royal family can only be undertaken by young people of noble birth, and everyone will feel honored that one line in their resume has served in the Guards.

And this position can contact a large number of royal family members and high-ranking officials every day, and those who are also engaged in the Guards are also noble youths of comparable status.

So as long as you get out of the Guards, your life will be smooth sailing in the future.

But this is only for others.

As for Huangxuan Jin, everyone knew that he would not have any future, he would not be used in any way, he was just a traitor all his life.

The Guards Regiment is just a beautiful position without any real power, and he will always be just a little despised officer, eating and waiting to die.

Even he himself knew very well that the queen could not really trust him, he knew it from the beginning.

Isabel is only a 19-year-old girl, but this 19-year-old girl established the Heresy Trial and launched the Glory Expedition within a year of taking the throne.

Everyone said that the blood of the ancient god Gulveig flowed in her body, and she would bring slaughter and disaster.

Even if she is full of hatred for her own father, how can she easily trust others.

Huang Xuanjin slumped on the chair casually, without any documents in front of him, he was always excluded from the core.

Seeing Yilier coming in from the door, Huang Xuanjin couldn't help but whistled at him.

Yilier is a young man with clear and beautiful eyes like a deer, the type that people can't help but like when they see it.

Even the queen, who seldom likes any man, likes him very much.

Of course, what followed was the leader's fury. The leader and Yilier were a pair, which was known to the entire Guardian Guards.

The leader is the tall and handsome type, which is a good match for Yilier.Although both of them were born in noble families, the family has always turned a blind eye to their affairs.

It seems that the whole world feels that these two people should be together smoothly without any waves.

After being beaten up by the team leader, Huang Xuanjin shrugged, "I just took a look."

Then another beating. "Can you see my Yilier?"

Life is so cruel and ruthless.Huang Xuanjin sighed, a beautiful and soft boy, why did he find such a violent man so early.He couldn't help but sigh for the future fate of the boy.

Huangxuan Jin ran over and put his arms around Yilier's shoulders, "Look at how violent Mendul is, what if he does something to you in the future? If you can't stand him anymore, come to me anytime, my arms will always be open to you..."

The head of the group threw a flying knife, Huang Xuanjin hurriedly dodged.Yilier next to him was holding the document in his hand and blinking his beautiful eyes.

"Oh, that's right. Huangxuan Jin, you'd better clean up. Her Majesty the Queen will attend a meeting tonight, and we all need to go there." Yilier turned around and said almost innocently. "His Royal Highness Wichpel will also be present."

Orr Sea Territory, the Holy Sound.

The man stepped onto the deck and lifted a brown glass lantern beside him. A light blue jellyfish was swimming in the lantern.

Zichen frowned, looking at the jellyfish floating in the lantern, "What is this?"

"Lighthouse jellyfish, this ship sometimes goes to a place so far away that all light is swallowed up there, except for the lighthouse jellyfish light."

"Why?" The boy lowered his head and thought for a while, but finally he couldn't hold back and raised his head to ask.

"It is said that the lighthouse jellyfish has endless life, so it represents eternity. And eternity is the only thing that cannot be swallowed by darkness."

"Would you like something?" Wisipel took Zichen to a room on the boat, let him sit at the table, and then walked to the row of beautifully decorated wine cabinets.

"Well, can I have a glass of milk?" The boy said weakly.

Vichy Perle's movement of taking the wine froze for a moment.

"Aren't you from Donghuang? Can you drink this too?

"Well, if you don't drink it, your stomach will hurt."

"I'm afraid there isn't one here. Let's drink some wine to warm up first. After all, the wind on the sea is very cold. Drinking some wine will make you feel better." Wisipel put the wine glass in front of Zichen, and slowly poured half a glass into it. wine.

"Is this wine?"

"Well. What's the matter?"

"It's not the same as the wine we have there."

Wihipel smiled, picked up the wine glass in his hand and shook it lightly, "Indeed, it looks like blood."

Zichen carefully picked up the wine and took a sip, and put down the glass somewhat unbearably bitter.

"You won't get used to it at first, but you'll get better with time." Vehipel leaned against the table, drinking slowly with the wine in his hand.The posture is elegant, but with a bit of alienation and indifference.

"You stay on the boat with me for the first few days, and after two days, I will take you back to the imperial capital Asgard after I finish my business."

"There is no place for you to stay around me. After I go back, I will arrange you into the Hall of Valor, and Will will arrange it."

Zichen still just lowered his head.

"Okay, let's do this first. I'm leaving first. If you have anything to do, you can come to me. My room is in the main cabin." Wihipel put the wine glass on the table gently, and then left the room.

Zichen watched Wisipel close the door, and then stayed there quietly. After a long time, he almost carefully picked up the wine glass that Wisipel had just put on the table, and gently pressed it against Wisipel. I tried to take a sip from the place where I drank just now.But immediately put down the wine glass as if scalded by the cold liquid.
