Chapter 6: Human Slaves

The Pegasus cart stopped. The two men in brown quickly got out of the car and opened the car door.

Wen Ying and Alice were dizzy instead, sitting in the car, a little frightened.

Wen Ying touched her forehead: "My head is a little dizzy. This carriage is too fast! ”

"Anyway, soon, I'm dizzy too." Alice let out a breath and replied.

Bill was very anxious: "Please ask the two messengers to get out of the car." ”

Wen Ying looked up and saw Grand Duke Litus standing beside the carriage, his gentle and handsome face with a hint of coldness. Not far behind him were several men dressed as servants in dark blue long-sleeved knee-length robes.

As soon as Wen Ying and Alice got out of the carriage, Pegasus flew into the sky on its own.

"Stand down and go to the torture chamber to receive five lashes each." Grand Duke Litus said coldly, and his tone changed to the mildness of the Light Source Temple.

Hearing Littles' words, the two brown-clothed men didn't dare to raise their heads.

Wen Ying blurted out: "Five lashes? What do you mean? ”

"They didn't bring the two of you back to the palace in time, and they deserve to be punished." Grand Duke Litus said coldly.

Wen Ying hurriedly explained: "It has nothing to do with them, it's me who asked them not to fly so fast, so that I can enjoy the beautiful scenery." ”

"It doesn't matter if you have anything to do with them or not." "As a slave, I don't keep my duty, and I obey you without my permission." ”

Wen Ying was stunned: "Slave? "There are slaves in this place? Wen Ying couldn't help but say: "They are people." ”

"Hahaha." Grand Duke Litus couldn't help but laugh, "They are indeed Terrans. In Heaven, only the human race is a slave. ”

Wen Ying was completely stunned. She understood that the Terrans in the mouth of Grand Duke Litus meant that they were supposed to be humans. Perhaps only human beings are slaves, and the other races of the kingdom of heaven are the "masters" of the human race who are slaves.

Seeing Jos and Bill with their heads down and not daring to move, a trace of guilt rose in Wen Ying's heart. At this moment, she vaguely felt that the so-called kingdom of heaven was a hierarchical kingdom.

Wen Ying thought about it, but still boldly pleaded: "In our place, there is a saying that those who don't know are not guilty. I didn't know that the rules of heaven were so strict that two grooms were involved, and I asked Archduke Litus for forgiveness. ”

"Grand Duke Littles, it's all our fault. In the future, we will no longer make any random requests. Please forgive them both this time. Otherwise, we will be very guilty. Seeing this, Alice hurriedly stepped forward, also with a pleading tone.

Grand Duke Litus looked at Wen Ying and Alice, and said to Jos and Bill: "This time I will be exempt from punishment, step aside." ”

The two lowered their heads and bowed their heads: "Yes." ”

"Henceforth you may call me 'Grand Duke Litus' or 'Your Excellency.'" Grand Duke Litus gently stroked Wen Ying's head with his hand as he spoke, "Not only slaves, but other races are disrespectful to the Protoss, and they will be locked up in the ice prison for 10 days on the charge of great disrespect. ”

Wen Ying and Alice looked at each other, and a chill rose in their hearts.

Grand Duke Litus continued, "I have arranged for the maid to serve you to sleep and rest. Tomorrow morning, you're all going to the round table. ”

"Sleep? Isn't it daytime? Wen Ying looked up at the clear blue sky, "Tomorrow morning?" Is it night? ”

Alice was also puzzled: "Is there no night in heaven?" ”

"Yes. There is no night in heaven now. There has been no night in more than 10,000 years. However, it is estimated that in more than ten years, there will be nights. A subtle look of worry flashed across Grand Duke Little's face.

Wen Ying's eyes widened: "What do you mean?" ”

Alice was also confused.

Grand Duke Litus beckoned, and two maids in long skirts wearing aqua ruffled three-quarter sleeve fishtail skirts walked up to Wen Ying and Alice.

"These two maids will serve you," said Littles. With that, he turned and left.

The two maids bowed to their knees.

A maid said to Wen Ying, "I am Thea who serves you. ”

"I am Meiya who serves you." The other maid said to Alice.

Wen Ying and Alice also hurriedly said their names.

Thea said respectfully: "Envoy Wen Ying, Envoy Alice, please come with us." ”

Wen Ying turned around and couldn't help but let out a "wow", only to notice that the carriage had stopped on a small lawn, and behind them was a clear river, and the water was actually lilac! Three crescent-like white bridges delicately span the crescent river. On the other side of the river, a cobblestone path zigzags to a milky white palace complex not far away, consisting of five or six domed palaces of varying heights. The palace is located next to a purple grove and is peaceful and tranquil.

Joss and Bill walked and talked as they walked one after the other.

The blonde Jos asked, "Bill, which of the two earthlings do you think is the Light Source Saint Emissary?" ”

"I don't know." The brown-haired and blue-eyed Bill shook his head, "Alice is young, beautiful, and intelligent. She had sorted out the Solomon Thread in one day. ”

Jos said dismissively: "What does that prove? I was able to sort it out in less than a day. ”

"That's different, they are human beings on earth, not human beings in heaven. In the Kingdom of Heaven, Solomon's Thread is something that everyone has been playing with since childhood. Bill shook his head again, "I heard that Wen Ying couldn't solve it, and at the last moment, she threw the Solomon thread ball on the candle and burned it to ashes." ”

Jos suddenly became a little excited: "I haven't always understood, they are all human beings, can't the Light Source Holy Messenger find someone from the human beings in the Heavenly Kingdom to serve as it?" And to find a human from another planet? ”

Bill stopped and glared at Joss, "Looking for us from us?" You are crazy. In Heaven, we are only slaves. ”

"Are human beings on earth slaves too? If we lived on earth like our ancestors, would we still be slaves? Jos became more and more excited, and his voice became louder, "Judging from the attitude of Wen Ying and Alice to Archduke Litus just now, I think that the humans of the earth are not slaves. When I send Wen Ying and Alice to the Holy Square tomorrow, I will quietly ask them if the humans on Earth are slaves. ”

Bill looked around: "You be quiet, if you say this, you will be punished if you are heard by the gods or demons!" ”

Jos looked around and said a little angrily: "If you hear it, you hear it, it's a big deal to be punished." ”

"It's better to be careful. However, I think both of them are good people. If it is really like what was said in the Light Source Temple, another person who is not the Holy Messenger of the Light Source is going to be killed, then the one who dies is too pitiful. Bill whispered, "Let's go back and rest." I have to get up early tomorrow morning. ”
