"What paradise?" Luo Sijie asked rhetorically, coming back to her senses.

"Have you heard the story of the paradise that belongs to humans and wolves?" said Ye Gu, sitting back in his seat, picking up the glass from before and drinking the remaining grape juice from it.

"I haven't heard of it, but I'd like to hear it. And, by the way, my lord, your state today looks very different from the previous one. This feeling is very strange, although I have only been together as actual companions for half a month, but we have experienced so many events that it does not make my feelings for adults suddenly change from familiar to familiar and strange. Luo Sijie stared at Ye Gu with a little seriousness and said.

For this question, Ye Gu did not rush to answer, but also responded to Luo Sijie with a serious expression.

About seven or eight seconds later, the two people who were looking at each other laughed at the same time, and this kind of laughter that turned from silence and smile even caused the personnel of the Imperial Capital in the next carriage to turn their heads curiously.

"Do you mean to say that I also have two identities like Ye Mingyuan, or do you have to have two people in my body?" Ye Gu asked with a smile.

"It's like two souls in one body. Luo Sijie affirmed the latter.

"Why do you think that?" Ye Gu continued.

In the past ten days, the adults have very serious expressions. Even except for things related to the dragon family, adults never mentioned it. If the previous behavior was like an imperial general, then the actions of the adults on the train in the past two days were like ...... Well...... It's like ......," Luo Sijie thought.

"The aristocracy, whether in the East or the West, is it a nobleman who holds the power of the state and has enough influence on the administration of the empire. Ye Gu guessed.

"Yes. Especially when it comes to the Dark King, the Dark Book, and those refugees who have less to do with the dragons, your cognition and contact definitely don't look like a person who holds a martial position. Luo Sijie also smiled.

"Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you, these things still can't be hidden from you. Ye Gu said, bowing his head slightly, looking a little lost.

"If the adults are embarrassed, forget it. Seeing Ye Gu like this, Luo Sijie had to comfort first.

"There's no need. And this matter is also related to the dragon family. Ye Gu said, raising his head slightly.

This time, his eyes were no longer lost, but instead of strong.

"Do you remember the time when I fell unconscious after fighting Lin Hai in the Consulate?" Ye Gu asked.

"Remember, you said that you dreamed of your relatives, and at that time I also guessed your parents by your surname. ”

"That's right," Ye Gu sighed, "Actually, what I dreamed of at that time was my father Yanba, he is the royal family of the empire, and similarly, I am also the royal family of the empire. In other words, half of the blood flowing through my body belongs to dragons. ”

"The royal family, it turns out that your life experience is related to the royal family. Does the Emperor know?"

"He knows it, and he's constantly threatening me with this. From the time I entered the Imperial Capital Military Pavilion to the present, I have carried out all his orders without any mistakes. Aside from the fact that the Dragon Realm Stone offered by the Demon Source Master Karl was peeped at once, I had never betrayed the Emperor. ”

"Then why can he still threaten you?" Luo Sijie wondered.

"It's because of Yan Wu fifty years ago, Yan Zhao twenty or thirty years ago. One died at the mouth of the dragon, and the other was put to death as a traitor. In fact, I didn't tell you that day, although Yan Zhao is Yan Wu's son, in fact, my father is Yan Zhao's brother. It is precisely because of this that after the previous emperor executed Yan Zhao, his entire clan was killed. And because I was too young at the time, and there were some reasons that I didn't know, I was in the imperial capital. It wasn't until five years ago that he was taken in by His Majesty, who was still the crown prince at the time, and eventually became a general of the empire. Ye Gu replied.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say that. Luo Sijie apologized a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, it's all in the past anyway. Actually, if it weren't for the Dragon Clan and the continental disaster, my loyalty to the Emperor, nothing could be changed. And it is precisely because I am loyal not only to the emperor, but also to the empire, that when I choose between the two, I can only choose the latter. ”

"You are just like me, and I am loyal not only to my family, but also to our country. I have always believed in the truth that there is no home without a country. Although we are in constant contact with Westerners, I still resent the attitude of Westerners who put their own interests first and put themselves above everything else. The reason why human beings have been able to develop to the point where they can compete with nature today is inseparable from the unity that mankind has always had. If human beings only care about themselves, and never care about the whole, then how can human beings survive so many disasters?"

Since the values of the two collided at this time due to the sameness, Ye Gu did not interrupt Luo Sijie, nor did he refute any of her views, he just listened quietly to this long story and kept nodding.

On the contrary, it was Luo Sijie, who smiled embarrassedly after finishing speaking.

"I have never been so attached to others, and I have thought that if all that is left of human beings is the ability to speak, then it is our greatest happiness to reveal the truest view of our hearts to others. ”

"Yes, the greatest happiness. Ye Gu looked at the stars outside the window again and echoed: "If the little emperor resurrects the dragon clan and the dark king also reincarnates, I am afraid that the human race will not even have a little happiness." In this case, there will still be people looking for the legendary paradise. ”

"By the way, I've been interrupted so much that I forgot to let you introduce you to Paradise. Luo Sijie said embarrassed again.

"Paradise, in fact, the first time I heard this word was in the library of the imperial capital. I remember that when I went to see Carl, he picked up a book written 3,000 years ago, full of pictures and words. A few sentences from the book say in lingua franca: When darkness and light are intertwined, the world will be at war. Whether darkness triumphs or light triumphs, the world will be frozen. At that time, only the legendary existence of the wolf clan in paradise can become the last safe haven for mankind. ”

"Haven of wolves, I've never heard of it. I've seen wolves a lot, but in that book, can wolves be like humans?" asked Luo Sijie curiously.

"That's right, Carl explained it to me. He was a Westerner from outside the West, and he said that in their country, there had been sporadic wolf-like humans, and he thought that maybe those people were the so-called wolf clan. In addition, it is also recorded in the legends of the Westerners that this place is a sacred area called Ishpilo. But for thousands of years, that place was like a mirage, and some people had seen it from afar, but no one had ever walked into it. ”

"Why can't you walk in?" Luo Sijie continued to wonder.

"Legend has it that all humans who enter will gradually become wolves. When they truly became wolves, it was as if humans had taken root in that place and could never escape. Even if they come out, they will die in a short time. Ye Gu sighed.

"In that case, will anyone still look for it?"

"Yes, perhaps it can be explained that when humanity loses hope, as long as there is even the slightest hope, there will be people who will step on thorns to find it. It's better to be imprisoned in time than to be completely disappointed. ”

After Ye Gu finished speaking, he turned his back to Luo Sijie and stared at the stars that were still twinkling in the sky with all his eyes.

Seeing this scene, Luo Sijie also got up and luggage, dragged a heavy flame suit, and walked to the rest place of the front carriage.

It was only eight days before Longqing began, and although the two of them did not know whether the small chaos that occurred inside the palace would delay the closure of the imperial capital, according to the current situation, the imperial capital would be completely closed in one day at most.

Like Longqing in the previous hundreds of years, as the great national day of the Flame Empire on the bright side, representatives from all parts of the empire and the army of the imperial capital to maintain law and order must be indispensable.

It's just that this night, Ye Gu couldn't sleep.

Staring at the huge lunar disk that was moving from east to west, Yegu didn't know what the future would hold.

As unstoppable as the wheel of fortune?

Or can it be fought like a dragon?

Or is it arbitrary to create like the Creator?

At this moment, on this Luojia train, which is gradually approaching the imperial capital, he only has anxiety and irritability in his heart.

......

Knock, knock, knock.

With the six strikes of the Western-style winning bid placed in the train, the time in the imperial capital has moved from night to six o'clock in the morning.

"My head hurts. Ye Gu got up from last night's seat table, rubbed his head and said.

"How did I fall asleep, when did I fall asleep?" Ye Gu muttered to himself.

But even after shaking his head a few times and rubbing it vigorously, he still felt a slight spinning sensation.

"It seems that I thought too much last night and didn't have a good rest. Ye Gu said, straightening up.

However, after standing still, he did not feel the shaking of the train as it had done the previous two days, nor did he hear the sound of the wheels colliding with the rails during the journey.

"So, has it already arrived?" said Ye Gu excitedly, running briskly down the corridor towards the door of the train and looking out.

Sure enough, the fiery red platform in the exclusive style of the imperial capital has been displayed in front of him.

Following the sign above his head with the words "Imperial Capital" written in the Chinese language of the Yanhuo Empire, Ye Gu walked outside the train.

At this time, under the light of Zhao Yao in the early morning, the people of the Luo family who got off the train had already begun to sort out the materials needed by the group, and began to move all the materials off the train and place them on the platform temporarily.

"Lord Ye Gu, my lord, you are awake, let me introduce you, this is the palace management who is responsible for the affairs of the palace and the reception of VIPs from all over Longqing, Zhou Xing manages. ”

Seeing Ye Gu get out of the car, Luo Sijie and Zhou Xing, who were still chatting on the side, hurriedly walked to Ye Gu's side.

"Hello, Week Management. Ye Gu greeted him politely, and then stretched out his hand and shook hands with Zhou Xing in front of him.

Since the age of Imperial technology, some of the etiquette of clasping fists between peers has been gradually abolished. In its place was the handshake advocated by the Westerners. However, if you want to meet the emperor in person, it is better to bow and kneel on one knee.

Zhou Xing belonged to the management of the Imperial Palace, and Ye Gu was the superior general of the Military Pavilion, and the two were nominally equal. In fact, the two have not met, after all, the military hall is outside the imperial palace.

"Hello, General Yegu. I am directly responsible for receiving the guests and you of Nandu this time. After all, the Prime Minister of the Empire will also arrive in a day. Zhou Xing said, deliberately aggravating the word prime minister to show respect for power.

However, looking at Zhou Xing's forty-year-old slightly greasy face and his short and slightly fat figure. Even wearing the uniform of the palace officials who were all ornate in God, Ye Gu did not have much of a good impression of him at first sight. On the contrary, the Imperial soldiers around him who were dressed similarly to him could bring him a sense of intimacy.
