Chapter Twenty-Three: The Heartbroken Governor

The night is a little deep--

In the study of the Governor's Mansion in Northern Xinjiang, there were many lights and shadows, and a person who looked like a poor scholar was standing in the shadows, and he couldn't see it really, and he occasionally heard a coughing sound like a broken bellows, proving that he was at least a living person.

"What's the matter with me?" asked the man in the shadow.

Guo Zizhong pouted and said: "Old poor and sour, do you have to have something to find you?

As soon as the words fell, the figure of the person in the shadow immediately blurred.

"Hey, don't go, okay, okay, I do have something to look for you!"

The already illusory figure of the man in the shadow became clear again.

"I said old and poor, you always look bored, are you still guilty of the past? yes, at the foot of Yin Mountain, you can be regarded as turning your back on your race. Guo Zizhong deliberately stimulated the other party.

"Racial strife has become a cloud to me. Only those who have actually been to the Land of the Death of the Far North will understand the meaning of race. Today's racial strife is just a cancer that destroys civilization, and only those who are obsessed with power and profit will be willing to eat it. "The man in the shadows is the moon without a shadow.

Guo Zizhong was suddenly choked: "Okay, okay! You have been imprisoned for ten years, and I think you are about to ascend to heaven." In fact, you and I both know that it is completely impossible to want mankind, the undead, and the orcs to abandon their old animosities and unify the world; and is war not a kind of civilization? Forget it, let's not talk about these useless things. I want to hear your opinion, since the beginning of this year, the orcs have been moving frequently, what is going on? Could it be that after the end of the ten-year period, they are not willing to be lonely again?"

Yue Wuying was silent, and only after a long time did he say: "I'm just a prisoner, how can I know?"

"Old poor sour, don't think I don't know, Wolf City may be able to trap your body, but it can't trap your eyes. I didn't ask you to help me deal with the undead, is it necessary to push back?" Guo Zizhong said dissatisfied.

Yue Wuying was silent, and he was helpless against this old rascal: "I don't know if you have heard a few ballads?"

"What ballad?"

"Eternal night comes, thousands of miles of red land, dies in Kyushu, and achieves light. Yue Wuying said softly.

Guo Zizhong jumped up all of a sudden, and the books on the table were knocked over to the ground: "Eternal Night? Do you mean the eternal night of a thousand years of reincarnation? Is the sword hanging high over the entire continent finally about to fall?"

Yue Wuying nodded: "Someone told me that this year's Extreme North Night will be a month earlier than in previous years, I'm afraid it won't be long before darkness will cover the entire Far North, and in the following years or decades, the Eternal Night will continue to invade south, and even the extremely cold-tolerant Polar Ice Grass will not survive at that time." The living space of the various races of the Ice Plains will become smaller and smaller, and if they want to survive, they will have to go south, and you have the only way to go south. β€œ

"Old poor sour, don't scare people, okay!" Guo Zizhong took a deep breath, if this is the case, it can explain the reason for the frequent movements of the orcs.

"The eternal night is coming, and the racial strife must end. Whether it is hand in hand or a river of blood, the mistakes of a thousand years ago should be over! In the next great change, you can choose to become a sinner of civilization, or you can become a hero who protects civilization. The voice of the moon without a shadow did not reveal a trace of emotion.

"It's impossible for me to open up the northern frontier, a thousand years of hatred can't be resolved overnight, if the undead and orcs can surrender, that's the best outcome. It's just that you and I both know that it's impossible!"

Yue Wuying sighed deeply and said no more. has been imprisoned in Wolf City for ten years, and he has changed too much. The more he knew, the more clearly he could see, which in itself was a pain in itself.

Guo Zizhong also sighed, "Heaven is ruthless, the eternal night destroyed the Kyushu Empire a thousand years ago, is it going to destroy my Bright Dynasty now?" His expression was also lonely, living in this era is the misfortune of the vast majority of people, when the eternal night comes, the entire continent is destined to bleed again.

Guo Zizhong didn't want to continue this heavy topic, and suddenly said: "Today, someone brought me a letter, and it was the daughter of Prince Wen, the lord of Chiba. ”

"Prince Wen, I heard that you are old acquaintances?"

"Yes, when I was studying at the Imperial Military Academy, he was my classmate - and friend" Guo Zizhong paused slightly, as if a sullen breath was blocked in his throat, and seemed to remember an unforgettable memory, "At that time, he was a prince, talented, proud but not domineering. He could have been a learned scholar, a warlike general, or even a good emperor. Unfortunately, everything changed with the death of his mother.

This time, he asked the young girl to come, which was really tempting. He has been showing weakness for many years, and even after the Battle of Yinshan, the eldest son was sent to the orc kingdom as a proton and did not object to half a sentence. In the past ten years, he has suffered from His Majesty's suspicion and trouble. It's just that how can he deceive me? The more he shows weakness to the people of the world, the greater the plotter!"

"Forget it, I won't mention the past anymore-" Guo Zizhong waved his hand vigorously, as if to drive away some kind of emotion. "This time he asked his daughter to send me a letter, which contained a joke from my youth - 'If you have children, you should be married', I didn't think he still had a collection, hahaha, it's just that this guy is greedy for women, and gave birth to a son and a daughter at the age of sixteen, and I only had a son after the year of my establishment, I thought it was impossible. How do you know that this guy made persistent efforts and actually gave birth to a daughter in his thirties, I heard that the young daughter Chiba County Lord is the pearl of his palm, and she is even a treasure, so she is willing to send it over. Guo Zizhong laughed for a while, and suddenly fell lonely again, "Alas, Your Majesty's health is not good today, and the youngest son is only thirteen years old, he does this, which proves that the situation is really not good!"

"Since Prince Wen is your former friend, why don't you help him, life should be happy and revenge"

"I'm different from you, I've always been a courtier of the empire" Guo Zizhong stood up and walked to the window, only to see that the bright moon became more and more pale, "I understand his thoughts." But his ambitions and revenge will only bring more disaster to the land. The army is the most important weapon of the country, how can it be moved by anger? Lord Chiba has been sent away by me, and I'm sure he'll understandβ€”I don't expect him to forgive me. ”

"Giving up your old friend for the sake of so-called loyalty, is the person sitting on the dragon chair really worthy of your allegiance? The thousand-year cycle of eternal night is a fog to others, but it is not a secret to the Bright Dynasty established by it. But what do you see this so-called emperor doing? It's rare to be so stupid. Yue Wuying sneered. β€œ

"My loyalty is not only to the Empire, but to the human race. Guo Zizhong felt that he was extremely tired, but only the person in front of him could let him put down his pretense and communicate frankly, perhaps because the person in front of him did not belong to this country after all, and he would not have too many interests entangled.

Guo Zizhong seemed to strengthen his beliefs, waved his hand vigorously and said: "No matter how ridiculous the emperor is, it is better than the chaotic times where corpses are everywhere, isn't it?"

Yue Wuying sneered: "You have your beliefs, just stick to it, you don't have to tell me." What's more, what does the human empire have to do with me, such a decaying empire may still be a good thing for the entire continent. Prosperity and poverty, hatred and desire, civilization and barbarism, can not be separated by a wall? ”

"The position is different. Guo Zizhong sighed.

"Wrong, it's that you and I are at different heights! Your heart is always in this city, so you can never see more truth. However, you have to be careful, you have become a stumbling block for too many people these days. ”

"I'm very relieved, Wolf City has you, I guess not a fly can fly in. Guo Zizhong laughed and said, "Okay, no matter how many differences we have, at least one thing in common, that is, we all want to give our children a good future, don't they?"

Yue Wuying nodded, but there was always a lingering melancholy on her face. He can guarantee that Guo Zizhong will not be harmed by hidden arrows, but he can't stop those conspiracies against Guo Zizhong, which is often the greatest sorrow of a general. Hearing Guo Zizhong mention those children, he couldn't help but have a headache when he was as wise as the moon.

I only heard Guo Zizhong say a little discouraged: "Those three bastards have been messing around like this in Wolf City, I'm afraid that no one will send us to the end when we get old." ”

Yue Wuying nodded, deeply convinced.

"Last year, when I was debriefing in the imperial capital, I greeted my mentor, the dean of the Imperial Military Academy and the governor of the Central Military Region, Admiral Boru, and sent three bastards to school before the winter of this year, and I believe that the mentors will let them know how to behave in a minute. ”

Yue Wuying shook his head: "No, Ah Heng should stay in Wolf City." ”

"The child is already older, you should let it go! By the way, this case outside the wolf city, it should be Ah Heng's kid who made the ghost! As far as I know, the reason why Liu Chengcheng went out of the city was because he was coerced by those bastards, although Guo Wu's kid never admitted that Ah Heng was involved in this matter, but with the urine sex of the three of them wearing a pair of pants, the more he didn't admit it, the more it showed that Ah Heng was seriously suspicious in this matter. I really don't know how Liu Chengcheng offended them, I just hope that I don't do too much. No one is a fool, let alone Liu Jiye, who is as cunning as a fox?"

"It's too late, what should have happened should have happened. When the child is older, why are you bothering so much? It's time to let go. Yue Wuying glanced at Guo Zizhong, threw back what the other party had just said, and then didn't look at Guo Zizhong, and disappeared into the room.

Guo Zizhong couldn't help but be angry when he heard this, and said hatefully: "It's all a bunch of unconscious little beasts, it's better to be confined and forget it, it's troublesome." After saying this, he couldn't help but light up, touched his shaved chin, and looked at the direction where Yue Wuying left. Before, the children were too young to let them know too much so as not to divulge the secret, but now that the children are older - it's time for them to meet the legend. If before going to the imperial capital in late autumn, it will be of great benefit to let the children get the guidance of the moon without shadows. At that time, the headache was the moon without shadow, and the more he thought about it, the more interesting it became, and he did it when he was free.
