Chapter 8: Late Night Visitors

"What does it mean to be a Gajie person?" Li Yiheng didn't answer Eric's question, but asked rhetorically, "What does it mean to be called a Gajie person all day today?"

"In our native language, the Gaj people mean outsiders. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Eric smiled and replied to Li Yiheng's question, "You don't belong to us, so you are called a Gajie." ”

"Oh, that's what it means. Li Yiheng realized, "My name is Li Yiheng." ”

"Li Yiheng?" Eric repeated, smiling, "What a strange name, different from our name." ”

"Didn't you say I'm from Gaj? Of course it's not your name. Li Yiheng said disapprehantly.

Eric was choked by Li Yiheng's words, and then laughed again, "You're right. ”

"What are you coming to me for?" Li Yiheng stopped being polite and asked Eric directly. He couldn't believe that it was so late and Eric and Ramil had come here just to say thank you and ask him what his name was.

Eric listened to Li Yiheng's words, the look on his face instantly became serious, and he didn't answer Li Yiheng's question, but glanced at Ramil first.

Ramil understood, bowed to Eric and Li Yiheng, and retreated to stand guard.

"Li Yiheng," Eric's voice was very serious, just like the expression on his face, "First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of those children and the parents of those children, thank you. With that, Eric got up and bowed solemnly to Li Yiheng.

Li Yiheng looked at Eric and didn't speak, waiting for his next step.

"Raga told me that he had already told you something, so I stopped talking nonsense about it. Eric sat down again, "I suspect that there is something wrong with the priest, and I would like to ask you to help me investigate the priest and find out the truth of the matter, so that the children here can save themselves from the fate of being sacrificed." ”

Li Yiheng admitted that he also felt that there was something wrong with the priest and wanted to investigate him, and he also wanted to save the children here from the fate of being sacrificed. But why did Eric, as the son of the city lord, ask him to cooperate?

"You still haven't answered my question, I mean, why me? Why are you looking for me?" Li Yiheng continued his question, "You are the son of the city lord, here, as long as you wave your hand, someone will definitely come forward to use you one after another, why do you want me to ask an outsider to help?"

Eric sighed and replied, "My father is the lord of the city, and I may be the future heir of the city, but I am not yet. ”

"What do you say?" Li Yiheng thought Eric's words were very interesting, was his father guarding his son?

"My father trusted the priest very much, and I felt that there were many things that the priest had done wrong, and he wanted to stop it, but my father not only did not allow it, but also punished me. Speaking of his father, Eric's tone was full of helplessness, "Although he won't punish me too much, he will always be on the priest's side." In this city, it is still the father who has the final say. You know, before today, there were already a number of children who had been sacrificed to the water monsters, and I didn't think it should have been done, but it still couldn't stop my father's decision. And all this was the idea of the priests. ”

Li Yiheng looked at Eric and asked again, "So what?"

"No one in this city dared to rebel against my father. Although the city is under the banner of democracy, it is sometimes more like the rule of the father's ****. Eric's voice was full of regret, "To oppose the priest is to oppose the father, so no one here dares to do that." But, you, Gaj, you don't need to be afraid of these. ”

Li Yiheng finally understood what Eric meant, that is, he was an outsider and had nothing to worry about, so he would naturally not be afraid of the coercion of the city lord or priests.

"Okay, I promise you. Li Yiheng thought about the purpose of his coming here, but decided to agree to Eric, "However, you also have to promise me that after the matter is completed, you will help me find something." ”

"What's that?" Eric asked alarmedly.

Li Yiheng patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, it won't be too demanding." However, I don't know exactly what I'm looking for right now, so I'll tell you when I do. ”

Eric looked at Li Yiheng's eyes for a long time, nodded and said, "One word is a deal." ”

Li Yiheng grabbed Eric's hand and high-fived him, "High-five." ”

Now that he has formed an alliance with Eric, the food that Ramil brought will naturally be edible. Li Yiheng took the small burden and opened it, gave a little to Xiao Ji, ate the rest of the food himself, and asked Eric while eating, "Do you have any plans now?"

Eric shook his head, "No, the priest is usually very cautious, I sent someone to follow him quietly for a while, but nothing was found. ”

Li Yiheng ate the food in his hand and nodded, "Then find a time, let's discuss it carefully." And what about your arrangements for me?"

"What arrangement?" asked Eric curiously.

Li Yiheng choked, "Don't you have any arrangements for my identity? I'm now wanted by your father all over the street, don't you plan to change my identity? I can't see anyone at all with my current identity, how can I help you investigate the priest." ”

"Well, I haven't considered this yet. Eric said embarrassedly, "But don't worry, I'll fix this as soon as possible." What kind of identity do you want?"

Li Yiheng thought for a while and said, "Personal guards or something." It's best if I can stay with you and be with you as much as I can. In this way, if something happens, we can discuss and deal with it. I have to be a little more detached, so that ordinary people don't dare to doubt my identity. In short, you just look at the arrangement, you must be able to get in and out of the place, and it is easy to move. ”

Eric thought for a moment and called Ramil back, "Ramiel, you help me think about which position next to me is more detached, and ordinary people dare not offend." ”

Ramil thought for a moment and replied, "Chief of the Guard." The identity of the chief of the guard is quite special, he has been with you since childhood, others dare not be disrespectful to the chief of the guard, and the city lord will give the chief of the guard a few thin noodles most of the time. ”

"Who is this chief guard?" Li Yiheng swallowed his last bite and asked, "Is this person reliable?"

"The chief of the guard was my father's choice for me, and he grew up with me from a young age. Eric replied.

"The person your father chose for you?" Thinking about the appearance of the city lord, Li Yiheng felt that this person was not very reliable, "Let's change someone." ”

Eric looked at Li Yiheng in surprise and said, "You think he is the one my father sent to spy on me?"

"It's not impossible. Li Yiheng's guess may not be accurate, but it is not completely impossible.

Although Eric is not very happy that Li Yiheng doubts his good friend since childhood, but he brought Ramil today and did not bring the chief of the guard, is it also because he does not trust this good friend who grew up together very much?

Eric told Ramil to think again, but there seemed to be nothing particularly suitable except for the chief of the guard.

"Do you have a teacher?" Li Yiheng thought for a while and asked, "What is your attitude towards teachers here?"

"Teacher?" Eric's eyes lit up, "yes, Teacher! My father kept saying that I would find a teacher to teach me how to respect him as a father. ”

"Okay, that's settled. I will follow you as a teacher, and I will leave my origin and past to you. Li Yiheng stretched his waist and yawned, "Come here to find me after you finish it." I'm sleepy now and I'm going to sleep. ”

Eric stood up, "You can rest first." I'm ready to look for you later. ”

The city was full of various notices for the arrest of Li Yiheng, posted on the wall, and the guards were shouting while patrolling...... All have the same meaning: the whole people went out to arrest Li Yiheng.

Listening to the voices floating in from time to time outside, Li Yiheng joked with Xiao Ji, "Hey, I didn't expect that I am so famous here." ”

Xiao Ji tilted his head and looked at Li Yiheng, as if he didn't quite understand what it meant to be famous. Xiao Yi was a lot quieter, no matter how much he did, he just tilted his head to look at Li Yiheng, otherwise he would fly around Li Yiheng a few times, and he would no longer scream.

Ramil came again early in the morning, but Li Yiheng was still sleeping at that time, and Ramil put down a bag of food for Li Yiheng and left without waking him up.

Maybe Xiao Ji found out that it was Ramiel, so he didn't wake up Li Yiheng. And Li Yiheng tossed yesterday, and slept relatively deeply, so naturally he didn't feel that anyone came.

Eric's movements are very fast, and in one day, he has created a very real background for Li Yiheng. In fact, things that are too real are more intriguing, but it doesn't matter, Li Yiheng won't stay here anyway, as long as this background can last for a while.

In the evening, Eric and Ramil came here again, and Eric held the background prepared for Li Yiheng in his hand and let Li Yiheng take a look.

"It seems that the position of teacher is still relatively detached, and since this is the case, there are probably few people who dare to ask me in person. Li Yiheng took it and flipped through it and stopped looking at it carefully, and shook the thing in his hand as he spoke, "Are you two familiar with this thing?"

Eric nodded.

Ramil shook his head blankly, although he was Eric's personal guard, he didn't know many words, so he might not be able to understand the content of the document in Li Yiheng's hand, let alone write it down word for word.

Eric explained to Li Yiheng, "Ramil doesn't have much literacy. ”

Li Yi paused as he flipped through the information, is this a shortcoming?
