Elysium is not big, with only two villages. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info located in the western part of the island is the village of Tsukikoto, and to the east opposite it, across the mountain is the territory of the village of Hiksen. Not only did the two villages have a good relationship, but they also intermarried each other due to the island's population problems, and the relationship between the villages of Etsukiqin and Rixian became even closer, and for a time it was almost as good as one village.

But this friendly relationship has changed in the past fifty years, and the reason is, of course, the monastery. The Monastery of St. Caroline was founded fifty years ago, when King Jesalph IV of Egrem intended to take control of the island of Ikepnos, or Elysium. He sent soldiers to build fortifications on the island, which was the predecessor of the monastery. Later, due to a series of events in Agrim, Jesalph IV was not interested in Elysium, so the plan was shelved. Over time, some of the soldiers who were sent there fled without permission, some were dragged into the sea by mermaids in the process of escaping, and of course many more chose to stay and marry local women and have children, and the fortifications were abandoned.

Many years later, several nuns came to the island, claiming to have been sent by Egrim to pacify the islanders, and took up residence in the fortifications that had long since been abandoned, and then renovated and used as a convent. In the years that followed, they gave clothes and medicine to the islanders, imparted knowledge, and renovated their houses, winning the love of most of the island's villagers. However, along with their acts of kindness, they also spread their teachings and tried to change the beliefs of the islanders to worship the gods of Egrim.

The ten years of hard work of the nuns finally touched the hearts of some of the young villagers, who began to gravitate towards the monastery. And the monastery was also very generous, and it did not know where to get new and strange items, telling all kinds of advanced knowledge, which made the hearts of the islanders who had never had the opportunity to leave the island alive, and finally gave up their original faith and threw themselves into the monastery.

Of course, there were some old people who were unmoved, and they were not used to the actions of the monastery, so they moved out of Rixian Village and lived in Yueqin Village, which was farther away from the monastery. At the same time, the villagers of Yueqin Village who agreed with the monastery moved to Rixian Village, and in this way, there was a huge difference in the thinking and values of the people of the two villages, and I don't know when they became like fire and water, and they no longer interacted with each other.

"However, my friends who grew up with me have fled to the village of Hikin Village," said Jasmine, who walked in front, "and they are having a good time now." ”

"Isn't it just two villages, both on the same island, eating the same food and seeing the same scenery, how much difference can there be?" Lucia disagreed with Jasmine's words.

"What's the difference...... Xuanyu, who caught up with him, patted his chest and said, "Only here can you tell the difference." ”

Lucia glared at Xuanyu: "I said something inexplicable again." Forget it, I just want to know what happened to you with Adounis. ”

"I guess I need to take a break. Because of the scruples of the jasmine in front, Xuanyu said very vaguely.

"He's saved us......" Lucia reminded.

"I know what to do. With that, Xuanyu smiled.

Lucia didn't understand what Xuanyu meant, she wanted to ask further, but at this time, the atmosphere was interrupted by Jasmine's exclamation: "I see Rixian Village!"

Jasmine jumped back, took Lucia and Xuanyu's hands, led them to the edge of the cliff in front of them, raised her hand and pointed downward, without saying anything more, Rixian Village was already reflected in her eyes. This glance really surprised Lucia, and even Xuanyu, who had always been unfazed, opened her lips slightly, and her eyes stared directly at Jasmine's fingers.

At the foot of the mountain is a flat area where the people of Nichigen Village thrive. Beneath the low-hanging dwarf clouds is an endless stretch of fertile fields that stretch to the seashore. It is more than ten months the size of the village, and the land near it is covered with ornate eaves, and the density is comparable to that of King's Street in Egreme, where the crowds are surging and the merchants are busy. At first glance, it looks like a village, but it is clearly a small city. Looking up again, there is a tower-shaped building standing on the opposite hill, solemn. Although it does not fit in with the scene in the village, it is condescending, looking down on the entire village of Rixian like a monarch, and there is the Monastery of St. Caroline.

"No wonder Miss Jasmine has always dreamed of Rixian Village, it turns out that there is such a big difference!" Xuanyu smiled and said, "It's really ...... to imagine that the small island of Elysium could give birth to a town of this size" He paused, like a cat, his eyes narrowed into a slit, "It's amazing." ”

Lucia was still a little hesitant, she scratched the corner of Xuanyu's clothes: "Did I see a mirage?"

Xuanyu casually scratched Lucia's head: "When we enter Rixian Village, you will know the answer." ”

Then, the three of them walked briskly down the mountain. When they actually appeared at the entrance of Rixian Village, the feeling of shock was different from when they were on the mountain. If the village of the sun string in the clouds is like an illusory dream, then the scene in front of you is real and unbelievable, but it exists, although such a contradiction makes people feel unpleasant, but curiosity and freshness take the lead in seizing the high ground of the heart, and the excited Lucia leaves everything else behind.

"Jasmine, until just now I thought this place was not much different from Yueqin Village, but I was wrong!" Lucia said, her eyes greedily scanning everything in the village, "This place is not a little different from King's Street in Egreme, and compared to the people who live here, we are the buns!"

"Tu Baozi only refers to you!" Xuanyu said unpleasantly, "I'm not one of them." ”

Although the prosperity of Rixian Village also has a big impact on Xuanyu, his focus is not here. It was originally a closed island, with few resources, and at most it could only be self-sufficient, so how did Rixian Village develop to this point, and what kind of secrets were hidden under the prosperous surface? He raised his head and looked at the monastery on the high place, his eyes slowly retracted, and he turned his eyes to look at Jasmine who was walking in front, and the villagers of Rixian Village who came up from the opposite side.

The man was dressed in rags and unkempt, which was extremely inappropriate for the style of the wealthy Hinexi Village. Looking closely, his pace was very unstable, his body swayed, as if he was about to fall down in the next second, but every time he reached the edge of a fall, he could find his balance again, so he stumbled, and he didn't fall after all!

His long hair covered his face, and he couldn't see his face, but judging by his figure, he was a man. At this time, the man walked towards Xuanyu from far and near, and after looking up and down around him, he suddenly high-fived and laughed. This startled Lucia and Jasmine, who were on the side, and then the man jumped up and down around Xuanyu innotably, repeating some inaudible syllables in his mouth.

Just when Lucia and Jasmine were at a loss, a man appeared behind Jasmine and patted her on the shoulder. Jasmine turned to look at her with a smile on her face. Lucia also looked at the sound, and saw a dignified man standing behind her, about the same age as Jasmine.

"Grove, why are you here?" exclaimed Jasmine.

The man named Grove laughed, "I guess that's what I said, Jasmine, why did your rigid old mother let you come here......?" he turned to Lucia, his eyes glued to her and looked her up and down, "There's a new friend, why don't you introduce me?"

"Before that, please get rid of Nosinu!" Jasmine waved her arm to "cut off" Grove's gaze at Lucia.

"You also know that Nosinu is a fool, how can I get rid of him, it is better to ......" Grove said and suddenly took Lucia's hand, "Let's hurry into the village and dump him;!"

Although not as strong as Adounis, Grove is also a burly man, and as soon as he took Lucia's hand and took a step, he was pushed back by the other party, almost falling into the mud. His eyes widened as he looked back at the red-haired, blue-eyed woman, whose face was full of apologies but obvious mockery in his eyes.

Jasmine stepped forward with an arrow and stood in front of Lucia, responsible for the recklessness of the Grove: "Lucia is my guest, why are you so rude!"

Looking at Jasmine's serious appearance, Grove only thought it was funny, and he leaned into Jasmine's ear with a hippie smile and said, "You're jealous." ”

Jasmine rolled her eyes: "Even if I am blind, I will not eat your jealousy, besides, ......" She jumped up to Xuanyu's side, and couldn't help but pick up his arm, shaking and coquettishly, "This is the type I like!"

Only then did Grove realize that Xuanyu, who had been left cold aside, felt a little rude, and hurriedly came over to say hello. However, when he saw that the fool Nosinu had been pestering the other party and blowing in his ear, he suddenly felt very ridiculous, and said, "It seems that this guest is very pleasing to Nosinu, and this fool is not everyone's favorite!"

"Ahh

"What do you mean by that!Nosinu likes him because he's gentle and considerate, and he's handsome!I'm afraid even idiots like you hate it!" Jasmine retorted, "Also, his name is Xuanyu!"

Grove was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to do. The embarrassment made the atmosphere condense instantly, and at this time, only Nosinu was still around Xuanyu by himself, saying some words that he couldn't slur.

Suddenly, after Xuanyu laughed lightly, he broke the deadlock: "It's okay, this friend is just joking, and he doesn't take it seriously." ”

Immediately, Lucia smiled and changed the topic: "Let's go into the village, I've never seen such an interesting village!"

"That's right, you're going to sit at my house!" Grove also returned to his original state, and while saying some kind words to Xuanyu, he took Jasmine's hand and walked into the village of Rixian. Lucia followed Jasmine, and at the end was Xuanyu. Of course, Nosinu, who had been pestering him, would not let him leave like this, but when Xuanyu turned around and glanced at him with a sharp gaze, he couldn't help but shudder, and instantly froze in place, not daring to move.
