Section I

If you want to say that Cassiu feels most confused when recalling, I am afraid that this seemingly sunny time is this. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"I can't be so easy to fool anymore..."Cassius had slipped quietly into the hall, and although people were still pouring into the hall one after another, it was obviously deserted.

He himself could realize how innocent and confused he was to follow a stranger out to sea at will, but fortunately he could realize what was going on before he was used, and he was glad to hear this conversation.

"Let's go to the street and get something that works. "I must find a way to escape from this hellish place, I don't want to be trapped in this dungeon for the rest of my life, but I can't go back to my brother......" He walked to the deserted street, put his hand behind his back, pinched the thumb of his left hand with his right hand, and looked back from time to time to see if anyone caught up.

"The farther away the better. He paused, frowned, and muttered again. As soon as he finished speaking, he tightened the belt of his waist bag with his hand, and ran towards the commercial street.

Perhaps this time it was because of the familiarity of the road, so in just a few minutes I picked up a lot of things on the street, packed up, and ran across the long street to the stone slab with the microphone hole.

"Open the door!" the voice echoed through the narrow underground street, making his voice a little terrifying.

"Open the door, don't you even recognize me?" Cassius shouted again, mimicking the boatman's low tone as much as he could, to the door with the carved little man.

"The party is about to start, why don't you take a good rest, what do you want to do when you run out, is there any tendon in your brain that is throbbing again?" Through the microphone, the voice on the other side became a little harsh, and at the same time, he didn't recognize it as Cassiu's voice.

"You're in charge of my business, open the door for me!" Cassius could feel in a deep tone that he was imitating perfectly, though he only kept his voice down.

"Whatever you like, you can go wherever you like, it's really more stubborn than when you were a child. The man over there sighed, took a sip of water, paused, and said, "The wings are really you, hurry up, hurry." ”

Cassius didn't dare to say anything, but with a humming sound, the door hadn't even fully opened, so he squeezed through the crack and ran desperately to the other end of the tunnel.

At first, Cassius didn't find his way to come, but ran to a large iron gate by the light, which was more than ten times his height. I turned back and ran to many different places before I found the entrance where I came, and although I couldn't see the outside through the stone wall, it was enough to hear the sound of the waves crashing against the stone wall. When he was no longer panting, he knocked on the microphone on the side of the door, and said hurry up in his throat, and then he heard a sound from Mai Li, and the stone slab in front of him was slowly pulled out, revealing the appearance of a cliff from Cassiu.

The soft ladder tied to the dry well when the boatman came was still hanging here, but it hung on the side of the rock, and the dirt rubbed on it made the rope look more worn, as if it had been hanging here for decades.

Cassius saw the opportunity, grabbed the ladder rope, and because he leaned forward and did not stand firmly, he threw himself on the ladder at once, and with so many stolen things on his back, he sank down so violently that he almost let go of the handle, and climbed up again, and had the illusion that it was much more difficult to climb the ladder than when he came.

By this time it was almost dark, and the sun was shining its last rays on the island that was about to be shrouded in black.

When Cassius had climbed ashore and was busy running towards the harbor, he did not notice that at the place where the cliff met the sea, rows and rows of fleets were heading west from the open hole.

Cathieu sat in the hollow of a dead tree, a musty smell mixed with the aroma of grass, which made people happy and depressed. He fiddled with the flashlight he had stolen from a small cabinet in a shop for a long time before he learned how to turn on and off the flashlight, and then began to count what he had stolen.

"Bags, towels, quilts, plastic cups, compasses, salt, rope, knives, and this flashlight and biscuits, I guess I haven't forgotten anything......," he said, counting the things he had stolen, and the thick black clothes that the boatman had given him.

"Almost, I hope they don't find out I'm hiding here...... Never mind...... I'd better ...... sooner."

Suddenly, a hand suddenly reached out from behind and covered Kaxiu's mouth.

"Don't make a sound, listen, if you want to escape from those dead ghosts, tomorrow morning, at dawn, go to the docks to find me, hide here and don't move, if there is a situation I will come to pick you up, there is a boat to take you out of the country." Go to the westernmost ice barrier in Gwanju. With that, the man immediately let go of the hand that was covering Cassiu's face, and ran into the depths of the forest, looking back from time to time, overestimating the nervous face and the stray hair, with that very strange look.

"It's the man at the harbor in the morning......" Cassius still stopped in the fright, trying to hold back his gasps and staring in the direction where the man had disappeared.

"Aren't you a liar...... Cassiu hurriedly packed his things into his stolen big backpack, and after several twists and turns, he finally escaped from the union, but he dared not trust others easily.

"Since I'm so easy to be discovered, I'd better hide in a different place first" Kasiu looked at the tree hole with some reluctance, it took him a long time to determine the hiding place to be discovered so easily, and the man covered his mouth without noticing.

"Who the hell is this?" Cassius looked at the hill not far away, and the starlight was gradually spreading all over the island. Starlight shone through the gaps in the leaves on Cassiu's body, and on his hair, glowing with a soft pale blue glow.

Cassius looked around for a long time, and quickly ran in the direction of the port, not daring to run directly on the beach, but running into the forest, even if it was a long detour, it was better than being discovered.

At the same time, from the edge of the cliff, walking along the dark passage to the depths, opening the thick carved gate, the street has been full of people for a long time.

"Where else can this guy run, we must find him quickly, if we see that person, it will be terrible, you bring more people, you must hurry! Rummag through the entire Oasis Island to find him, stop all the ships that sail tomorrow, and say that they will check in advance, and the other part will drive to the dock first, and the others will divide into two ways, all the way to check the forest, and the other to check the beach. I must find him quickly!" explained the boatman to the man next to him, his tone was already a little suppressed, and his brow was even tighter.

"It's really everything, and there are people stealing such gadgets in places like this. A shopping street owner was smiling wryly and saying to a customer next to him, "Look, someone took the flashlight I used in my bedroom for several years." ”

"Why does this flashlight always flash, the quality is so poor......" Cassiu threw away the flashlight that turned on and off, took out the compass from his bag, groped with the starlight, and headed towards the harbor, "I remember going northeast, why haven't you ......arrived yet" Kaxiu endured the feeling of numbness in his scalp and continued to go in the direction of the northeast. While complaining, he heard some footsteps.

In a hurry, he found a small hole that had collapsed enough for two or three people to hide into, so he did not hesitate to burrow into it, and covered the hole with his hands the dead leaves and branches on it, and leaned against the earth wall, listening carefully to the sound of getting closer.

"I'm willing to bet there can't be one in the forest, and how many locals wouldn't dare to walk this night path, let alone him. Let's go to the beach and have a better look, besides, this is the pier, and the boat won't let it go, so it can't go too far, right? The slightly hoarse voice came from behind him, speaking impatiently.

"Let's look again, after all, inheriting a suspect is a big deal. Not far from him, another voice sounded, speaking weakly.

Suddenly, a man stepped on the leaves that Cassiu had just piled up, and then one leg slammed into the hole, revealing himself in front of Cassiu.

"Eh, what are you doing! It's all a hole, they all said don't let me suffer this sin again, you want to turn around yourself, I'll go first." He was still nagging, pulling his legs out of the hole, not seeing Cassieu below with his eyes tightly closed.

"I'm sure I won't look at it again, maybe I'll be hiding in these holes. The man's tone was still weak, but he reached over and turned over the leaves.

"I'm pretty sure, let's go, go straight to the dock, if you can't find it, it doesn't matter to us, anyway, we've been here, and there's really no one." Before he finished speaking, he was already walking in the direction he came. It wasn't until the hoarse voice was getting farther and farther away that Cassius dared to gasp softly, but he still didn't poke his head out, because he never heard the weak voice of the owner go away.

But it was true that Cassius was suspicious, and when he woke up and poked his head out, there was no one around.

The mountains to the east have begun to glow with a hint of yellow, and the summer sun comes out very early.

"That guy must have been in a hurry. As he spoke, he ran to the docks.

"What's the matter, aren't you waiting for me at the docks?" Cassius was about to run at full speed, when he saw this crazy guy running up to him.

"The dock was sealed by the union and I couldn't go. The man gasped and groped around as he looked for something.

"......Who the hell are you?"

"Child, there is no time to ask me, take this bag and go to the southwest edge of the island to find the smuggling merchant ship at the foot of the mountain, and there is only one last boat left to go to the ice barrier in an hour. As soon as you get to the ice barrier, go to my friend, who is also an old acquaintance of mine, her name is Ake, I wrote a note, go to the boat and take a closer look, what are you going to do. Hurry up and get to the pier now, it's the last boat of the month, don't miss it, there's ...... Oh, I really don't have time to talk about it, if I still want to save my life. Although the man's expression was serious, he said very excitedly, and when Cassius looked closely, he realized that the loose hair was not gray, but brown hair covered in dust, almost completely losing its original color.

"Wait, who are you?" Cassius had to interrupt him, time was running out for him, and the boatman could find him in broad daylight at any moment.

The man smiled and said, "You look completely different from when you were a child, and you are a lot whiter, it must be a good thing done by that guy Difu, if you have the chance, you can go to Dumeng to meet him." It's really not too early, let's go, I'll help you get rid of those annoying hooligans. With that, he patted Cassius on the shoulder, leaving a gray trail on his clothes, and hurried in the direction of the cliff to the south again, still looking back from time to time, but at this time Cassius realized that he was not on guard against someone chasing him, but kept looking at himself.

The morning light on the horizon had already shown its eyebrows, revealing a shining speck on the sea level, shining straight on the pier that was about to come alive.

"Well, big brother, is this ship going to the ice barrier?" asked the sailor who was fiddling with the windlass as he nervously glanced back at Cassiu.

"Yes, it's going to the ice barrier, the place where people freeze to death, what are you doing there, and we're serious ships. The sailor said casually, "If you have to go, I can give you a ride, but this is a long-distance line, quite expensive, at least 500 spirits, including food and accommodation." ”

"Half crown, okay, thank you so much" Cassiu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the other party say this. He shoved the ten crowns in his hand into the sailor's hand and said, "Look for me with nine and a half crowns." ”

The sailor felt a little incredulous, frowned, glanced at Kasiu, and asked, "Where do you work?"

"I know you're doing smuggling, it's okay, so am I, there's nothing wrong with 'serious people' taking the 'serious boat', you don't need to ask, have a good trip." As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed the handful of parts and stuffed them into his bag, and walked up the boat along the planks used to transport the goods next to him, and got into the cabin, and unconsciously muttered, "Smuggle myself." ”

The windlass had already fished the anchor out of the water, and the neat canvas had been lowered by the sailors, and the ship was very large, but it looked like a passenger ship. In the cabin, Cahew walked up the stairs to the second floor, which was not as simple as the first floor, which had only ten rooms, but looked like a high-end passenger ship. While thinking, he walked to the door of his room, looked up at the mark, "A403, this is it" as he spoke, inserted the key into the lock and twisted it for a while, pushed the door open fiercely, threw a few of his bags on the shelf, turned around, jumped backwards and fell on the bed, and remembered that the door was not closed, got up and closed the door, locked the locks, and then fell asleep on the bed. At that time, he thought that it would be good if he could sleep soundly this night.

The bag that Cathew had rudely thrown on the shelf had cracked a small slit, and the smooth and translucent sapphire was shining through the sunlight.

Section II

The country is surrounded by an ice-covered wall, just as the plateau is garrisoned at the northwestern edge of Gwanju. The siege is like a dead giant, who will be in a coma forever, unable to sleep.

But the land is about to wake up.

The weather in Zuolu became very bad, and it seemed that it was the arrival of summer, but it was suddenly sealed in the cold winter, making the streets no longer full of people. After a light rain, a thin layer of frost has risen on the road. The dark clouds do not disperse for a long time, the sun does not appear, and the snow has to be the next from time to time.

"Dear Mr. President, no, it's time to call you Mr. President, it's time for you to rest well, isn't it?" The rough hand gently closed the sarcophagus lid, Li Cheng stood in the middle of the small island, the wind became stronger and stronger, as if this inconspicuous island could be swallowed up by the waves at any time. The boat tethered to a stake swayed with the waves, and the edge of the city shone white in the last ray of sunlight. "It's not the right time for this rain. He tied his long silver hair back with a leather band, and half of his face was obscured by the shadow of the faint light of the bridge of his nose.

"It's time for us to fight back. ”

"Believe me, Lei Luo, no one will be on the streets in this weather. Fan Pu took Lei Luo's arm and sat on the street corner, with his back against the wall, struggling to change his spikes, "We still need some necessities, those guys would never have thought that we would run back." ”

"You are really optimistic and confident to a realm, what if those guys are guarding the house? I don't want to be captured alive......" Lei Luo had just experienced a short time of comfort, and then fell into the dire straits, and now he was blown by the wind, and his face was flushed with a faint touch of red, "I think we have enough things, what else do you want to take" Fan Pu finally put on his shoes, then raised his head, and said slowly: "What do you know, you don't even take a spare clothes when you go out, do you know how to survive in the wild." With that, he went to the door and tore down the broken door.

Dirty footprints have covered the once neat house, which now looks like a murder scene.

"I really don't know how to cherish, do you have any quality" Fan Pu felt distressed and touched the red light that he had carefully arranged on the wall, and now only the fragments were left on the ground, squeaking and swaying with the cold wind blowing in.

Lei Luo had already begun to stuff those things that could be used into his big baggage, although some things had fallen a lot of dust, but they were still thrown into the bag, until he couldn't stuff anything else, he went downstairs satisfied, and said to Fan Pu: "When I left my house, I didn't have to be so grinding with you, didn't you say you had to pack things, I'm about to clean up for you." The blonde hair grew fluffier as Lei Luo had begun to get agitated.

"You don't know what feelings are!" Fan Pu muttered as he picked up all those discs, opened the drawer, stuffed the brush into his bag, cleared his throat, and said, "These guys can't touch it, it's like they'll blow up when they touch it, let's go to the ice base, my dad took me there before, they are not as unreasonable as such people, the one I know must be willing to help us." Fan Pu always spoke with confidence, and this feeling of vitality slightly made Lei Luo feel that the situation was not so bad.

The blue water laps against the iron sheet at the bottom of the boat, and now is the time when the wind and waves are calm.

Cassieu was awake, but he didn't open his eyes, he rolled over the bed a few times, stretched his arms, and jerked his waist before he opened his eyes.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the bag of packages given by the man, he had never opened it, and because he was too lazy to move again, he didn't get out of bed, but directly reached out and grabbed the bag and dragged it to his bed.

The zipper, which had been slightly rusted, and some small broken holes, made the bracelet sapphire-encrusted inside more conspicuous, and made Cassius almost miss the two small notes

Cassiu:

I don't think I have much time to explain to you, and there are some things that you don't know.

When you get to the ice barrier, I'm sure you can find Ake very smoothly, give her the bracelet I put in my bag, and hand it to her with your left hand on the back side up, that's our code, otherwise she won't believe you.

I don't know what has happened to you over the years, and I don't know what your heart has grown into, but you should be clear, and you need to know this, you are not a descendant of those royal families, you are just a common man, my son, but you are different, when your mother was pregnant with you, Luo Gaofeng almost died, it was a person named Di Fu who saved your mother, and also brought you different abilities. I've never believed you were anything special, because you were born exactly like us. But that's it, it's because of this rumor that you will be taken away by those people in Nanling Prefecture.

I regret that I didn't save your mother's life at that time, she was secretly solved by those guys in order to find a way to steal you out, and I escaped by the ship of the Northern and Southern Army, so I had to endure the nest on the Oasis Island.

When I saw you yesterday, I recognized you at a glance, and although you have indeed become different, you are exactly the same as the energy in your mother's eyes, and this cannot be wrong.

Cassiu, I can only help you get here, and your own fate will be decided. Keep this letter for yourself, and give it to Ark when you get to the ice barrier, so that she doesn't see it. Remember to call her sister.

Daddy stays

After reading it, Cassius found that he didn't feel anything, just felt tired, and wanted to go and sleep again, and not think about anything again.

"Then I really thank you, Dad, that's so clear. Cassius put one hand down to his eyes and took a big deep breath.

After a whole day of sailing, the blue coast has become clear, and the appearance of the eternal crystal clear waters of the Missy Ocean makes people panic.

"Hey, this one, get up, we'll be on the shore soon, and if you want to eat, hurry downstairs, don't rely on me for not reminding you. The sailor tapped the door vigorously and went downstairs, but Cassius was not asleep yet, so he replied in a daze, rubbed his eyes, and gathered his things to go downstairs, and stuffed some of the disposables of the ship's room into his bag.

The port of the ice barrier was deserted, and at first glance it was the only ship carrying goods to the city. Cassius followed the queue and slowly walked towards the towering city walls. There was a lot of snow, but every snowflake was slowly fluttering and falling on the ground, not even a breeze, directly engulfing the traces of the procession.

On the other side of the city wall, Fan Pu had already quarreled with the guards.

"My car is absolutely safe, no problem, you don't believe in inspection, absolutely no problem!" Fan Pu had just driven to the edge of the city when he was stopped by a guard in the city and asked Fan Pu to hand over dangerous goods to them before entering the city.

The huge burden that Lei Luo was carrying had also been searched, and all the luggage had passed the inspection, but only this motorcycle had not passed the inspection.

"I'm really sorry, it's also an extraordinary time, I hope you can understand" The guard smiled awkwardly at Fan Pu and said: "Zuo Lu is obviously hostile to us, and it is not okay if you are not guarded, plus you are tourists from Zuo Lu, and explosive things like motor vehicles are not allowed to enter the country, otherwise you can rent a parking space and put the car in our warehouse?"

"Okay, that's it, rent for a month. Lei Luo pushed Fan Pu aside, smiled at the guard, took out 400 spirits from his pocket, and stuffed them into the guard's hand.

"What are you afraid of, don't let me say it, if I said that we would have driven the car in a long time ago, would we still have to walk such a long way?" Fan Pu followed behind Lei Luo, clutching his neckline tightly to prevent the cold from penetrating in.

Because Lei Luo grew up in the wind and snow in all seasons, the low temperature in this kind of place was nothing to him at all, so he calmly walked in front of Fan Pu. But Fan Pu lives in Zuolu, where the climate is mild almost all year round, and when he arrives at the ice barrier, which is covered with ice and snow all year round, he shiveres when it drops down suddenly.

"There's a carport over there, do you want to go and rest?" Lei Luo looked at Fan Pu who was complaining while sneezing, and suddenly wanted to laugh.

"No, we're almost there anyway, I remember they live not far from here, can we put our car here?" Fan Pu stopped clutching his neckline and began to rub his arms with his hands, trying to get warmer.

Cassiu was on the west side of the ice barrier, putting on the sailor's suit he had brought with him, and chanting in pieces, "Where can I find someone named Ake for such a big ice barrier, or find someone to ask for a reliable one." As he spoke, he picked at his elbow.

When he arrived in the city, the plan didn't go so well, and every time he asked anyone if they knew Ake, everyone would look at Cassiu's face in confusion, and leave him as if they didn't see him.

"Didn't you say it's friendly......" Cassiu had already run to the cross street in the northwest corner of the city, and at some point the wind had risen, blowing heavy snow on his back, drifting to the east of the city, Cassiu followed the wind and looked at East Street, and suddenly saw two blurred figures, walking forward against the wind, talking.

"Looks like these two guys are going to say something......" Cassiu sighed and ran down East Street.

"Do you know the way!" Lei Luo yelled uncontrollably. Fan Pu also looked around four times while apologizing, muttering, "Don't worry, don't worry, believe me, you will definitely be able to find it, believe me, it's here that believe me...... Should ......"

Before Fan Pu could finish speaking, Cashew had already slammed into his chest.

Cassiu ran too fast and couldn't stop on the frozen ground, hitting his head on Fan Pu's chest. Fan Pu was startled by this fierce attack, his left foot twitched, and before he could stand firmly, the two of them fell eastward.

Lei Luo was also frightened, his eyes opened suddenly, and he was blown into his eyes by the snow, and subconsciously rubbed it with his hands, and when he opened it again, it was white and looked very pure.

Section III

Each snowflake is gorgeously carved by nature, but it is piled up into a thick layer of snow, but there is no subtlety in it, and when there is too much snow, it falls down and washes off the dust. The snow that fell on the ground had to be trampled into footprints and turned into spring mud for the coming year.

Fan Pu was lying on the ground, his back was cold and numb from the heavy snow behind him, and there was a fluffy white hair ball lying on his chest.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, it's too slippery, that ...... Are you okay?" Kaxiu helped Fan Pu up, patted the snow on Fan Pu's back clothes, and kept apologizing.

"Hey, I said, ......" Fan Pu was about to ask, but Lei Luo patted Fan Pu on the shoulder and interrupted Fan Pu's words, "Fan Pu, don't lose your temper first, it's nothing, people didn't mean it, let me ask him first." Lei Luo walked over and helped Ka Xiu pat off the snow on Fan Pu's body, turned his head to look at Ka Xiu, and smiled, "Are you okay?

As soon as Kaxiu heard this, he understood who he should be talking to, so he echoed Lei Luo and said, "I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just saw you, and I was anxious to ask for directions, so I ran over and accidentally bumped into this brother." The snowflakes on his eyelashes melted into small droplets of water by the body temperature, and the lower eyeballs turned in a half circle, and said, "You are also outsiders......, right? "Seeing that Fan Pu seemed to have extinguished his fire, Cashew continued: "I also just arrived, I want to find someone named Ake, have you heard of it?" or do you know who has a wider range of roads or something......

Lei Luo's pupils contracted suddenly, and he exerted his strength with the hand that had been placed on Fan Pu's shoulder.

"We don't know ......" Fan Pu was about to say the words "Ark" in annoyance, Lei Luo pinched it fiercely and said: "We also want to find Ak, let's stop by and go together." ”

The three of them walked as they talked, and Lei Luo looked up and suddenly found that he had walked to the carport he had seen earlier, obviously Fan Pu had taken the wrong path and came back in circles. The wind outside began to lighten, and the voices of the three people gradually became clearer.

"So, anyway, in any case, you were suppressed by your royal brother, and you accidentally got on a trafficker's boat, and then met your father, and he asked you to take refuge in his friend Ake?" said Relo, asking Cassius all the time. He has always been very smart, but he has always had to think too much about dealing with Fan Pu, and it has not been until he meets Kaxiu that he has been able to play some games for so long.

"That's probably it, but if you say that, you obviously don't know Ark, why did you say you know just now?" Cassius stared at Lei Luo's eyes, with an unmistakable determination in them, and felt that he could trust him with confidence. At the same time, Cassius himself knows that he needs to be taken care of in the current situation.

"If I hadn't said I knew, I'm afraid you'd have left us behind. Lei Luo glanced at Fan Pu, who was squatting and playing in the snow, and continued, "Let's go together, we don't have anywhere to go now, the family that Fan Pu was going to take me to probably can't find it, maybe it's moved." ”

The wind and snow start to be rude again, but Cassius doesn't think he should stay any longer.

"I look at the road sign, there is a big house near us, I guess it's the leader of this city or something, do you want to go and see it?" Cassiu pointed to the road sign across the road and looked at Lei Luo. Fan Pu turned his head and smiled at Kaxiu, and said, "What age is it still the leader, the president is right?" Cassius glanced at Fan Pu and continued to say to Lei Luo, "It doesn't matter what kind of king or queen he is, I guess Ake is a powerful person, and the place where he lives won't be too blind, right? I think this is the only way, otherwise I will accompany you to continue to find that family? Oh yes, I just asked someone on the street who knew Ake, and they looked at me like a psychopath." ”

Fan Pu had long since given up on what he was talking about, so he added: "Let's go with Cassiu and find Ake, maybe he really moved away." Also, I heard the guards of this city say that it is an extraordinary time, and it is estimated that the days of calm will not be long, and Zuo Lu also grabbed me and Lei Luo everywhere because of my motorcycle, it must be for those few flying stones to solve their energy problems, this thing is very precious" Fan Pu patted his waist bag and unzipped the bag to let Kaxiu take a look at the pink stone.

When I actually found the building painted on the road sign, I saw an ice-carved castle with the gate closed. It was a gate more than five times taller than Cassiu, and now it slowly opened a crack, which reminded him of the large iron gate under Oasis Island.

The three guards who ran out of it were all wearing thick down jackets. Cassiu nervously tugged at the strap, but Le's shoulders were a little sore. "Please...... Do you know...... Well, uh, Ake, if you don't know, we'll ask somewhere else......" Cassius looked at the three people who were all a head taller than him, and said a little timidly, unnaturally.

"Haven't you heard of Ake when you're so old?" a few guards were stunned, and said with a smile, "It's a foreigner, right? Don't be afraid of us, the international situation has been too tense recently, and we have to be this guard too......" The highest guard said like a child, "Is there anything to find her?" If you are not in a hurry, I suggest that you wait for any news about the policy on Zuolu's side, and now she is really busy enough. The soldier pointed to the tallest window and continued to talk to Kas.

"We have this, it's Ark's, it should be okay to find her, right?" Relo asked Cassius if he wanted to pass the bag, showing the guard the sapphire-encrusted bracelet.

The guards exchanged glances, frowned, and looked at Lei Luo.

Lei Luo has always been curious, Fan Pu can make a thumping sound wherever he goes, even this ice palace is no exception.

Cassiu gripped Relo's wrist tightly, still maintaining a high level of tension in his heart. Who is Ake's sacredness, the three of them have no bottom in their hearts, and they speculate with each other about each other's thoughts.

"Gentlemen, there's a ladder over there, so you can sit on the top floor. "I was no longer a guard, but a waiter in a formal suit.

As the elevator rose a little, the three of them relaxed a little, knowing that no one could hear their conversation.

"You must keep an eye on me...... Don't get me wrong, call Sister Ake...... And hand her the bracelet with the back of your left hand. Kahew patted Fan Pu and motioned for him to let go, and got into the middle between Lei Luo and Fan Pu.

"Why didn't you say it earlier, you should have said it before you came. Fan Pu glared at Kaxiu fiercely, his black and red hair was rubbed messily by his hands.

"It's okay, take it easy", Lei Luo repeatedly recalled Ka Xiu's explanation just now, while tidying up Fan Pu's hair with his hands, "Your hair is so messy, don't be kicked out as a homeless man in the future"

"I was originally a vagabond, but I became an international version of a vagabond. Fan Pu muttered as he let Lei Luo continue to arrange his hair, while Cashew tugged Lei Luo with one hand and tightly held the small bag containing the bracelet with the other.

As he spoke, the door opened, and the three of them had reached the highest place.

It's unusually cold at such a high place, but it's even more peaceful. This is the tallest building of the castle, and the ceiling made of thick ice has become a prism that reflects colorful light. Ice Age-like style, rough and delicate, a door slightly smaller than the castle gate, opened just wide to the Lelo and them.

"Cassiu, you come to the front. Lei Luo patted Cassiu's bag with his hand and motioned for him to go ahead.

"Do you want to knock on the door first?" Before seeing Ark, Cassiu had panicked and squeezed Lei Luo's wrist uneasily. The three of them stood at the entrance of the elevator and never dared to move forward.

The light from behind the door, which was imperceptible during the argument, was accompanied by the sound of the heel of the shoe hitting the floor, and was added to the personal projection.

"Come in, or I'll go to the meeting first"

Section IV

"If you don't miss your dear, you can go to war. ”

The words sound bleak, but the melody is slow and beautiful. The sound of hazy music came from under his feet, and it seemed that Cassiu's breath was not so nervous.

Inside this gate is a long corridor with little end in sight. Above is a purely ice-prism-like ceiling that reflects light from the depths of the white clouds, and on the left is a row of floor-to-ceiling windows that can see the entire left half of the castle. The small doors on the right are arranged irregularly on the wall on the right.

The three of them followed Ark down the hallway for a while, and when they saw Ark, they suddenly turned into a door that was slightly larger than the others. The three of them stood at the door, you look at me, I look at you, all looking at each other, not knowing whether to go in or not.

"Sit down on the couch and wait, I'll be right back, the old stuff has another meeting. While busy sorting through the papers scattered everywhere on the table, Ake struck the bell with his fist a few times, turned his head and said to them, "I called the service, you can eat and drink whatever you want, just wait for them to come, and try to get some of this, after all, those southern foods are not easy to ......get here" Ake held the papers, looked at them a few times, and left in a hurry.

Fan Pu swallowed his saliva, and then stepped on Kasiu's foot from under the table, "Is it reliable?" Your father is really a master of art and boldness, or let's go to the household I said, it's really not good, just find someone who looks a little richer, and it's no problem to stay overnight." ”

Fan Pu and Kaxiu sat between Lei Luo, Fan Pu had to keep his voice as low as possible, and said to Kaxiu, "Now it's better to wait for her to come back, hurry up and give her that thing, otherwise maybe after a while, we can only go through the window if we want to leave." As he spoke, he pointed to the window behind him with his thumb.

"Fan Pu, what do you want to do so much, I think people are very good, and it's good enough to be able to come in, maybe you can stay here at night, what are you complaining about, and besides, can you stop stepping on my feet, you stepped on the wrong one." Lei Luo covered his eyes with his hands, he had really not rested for two days and one night, and his ears were ringing.

Kasiu pinched the bracelet and spun it around in his hand uneasily. Lei Luo also noticed this small movement, patted Kaxiu's shoulder with his hand, and said, "It's okay, it doesn't look like a bad guy, it's a big deal, let's go, Fan Pu may still be able to find the family he said." ”

Cassiu thought for a while, swallowed his saliva like Fan Pu, and said slowly, "I'm a little hungry." ”

The lights in the conference room were all on, as if it were night, and although there was no need for this, the light from the wind and snow outside was enough to illuminate the conference room, but they were still there

"The extent of the crisis of the situation, I won't emphasize it, Chenghai has declared war with us, Zuo Lu is about to fight, it is impossible for us to fight alone, and it is impossible to keep anything, and the destruction of the country is also coming, now we can only ally with other countries, otherwise it will be the destruction of the country sooner or later, in my opinion, the alliance with the bordering countries of Miaogu and Muxiang is the most reliable. The gray-haired, serious-looking old man was shouting at the young man next to him, almost in a commanding tone.

"I suggest waiting! In this way, the entire Western Crown region will be involved in the war, and it will only be like twenty years ago, and it will definitely intervene in the Eastern Crown countries that have close contacts with the Western Crown, followed by the countries of Nanling, Beiling, and even Mingzhou, and eventually cause a world war, twenty years is long and short, and the people are unwilling to fight again, which country takes the initiative to form an alliance first, which is equivalent to which country is the first to anger the people of the world. A man with short brown hair next to him stood up and said to the stern old man, "King, I don't approve of our initiative to form an alliance, this ******** pot, our generation can't afford to carry it." This seemingly young man speaks unusually maturely.

"We're passive! The league is nothing, isn't it ******** for us to protect ourselves?" said a woman sitting in the back row.

"That's right, our country has been a peace-loving country since ancient times, but at the same time its military equipment is backward. Since this battle has to be fought, if it is not an alliance, our people can only die more" The king rubbed his temples, and his sideburns were already a lot whiter.

"Ake, what's your idea?" he didn't want to talk to this man anymore, so he looked at Ake, who was holding his head with his hands on his head, tilting his head, and looking bored, and raised his voice and said, "You're a queen anyway, and you never care about national affairs?"

"Queen, isn't this title just the façade of the country, I'm just a decoration, it's not up to you kings or anything to deal with the big things, is my opinion useful? Ake stood up on the table, put on a standard smile at the audience, and left the room.

"This girl is actually full of chic, isn't she," the blue-haired woman to the king's left said lightly.

"Don't eat it, I'll kill you, you're still thin and short after eating so much. Fan Pu looked at Cashew with disgust, Cashew didn't stop eating those small dried fish for a moment, eating them with some snacks, but Fan Pu himself barely ate two small dried fish and didn't have the appetite to eat, but poured water into his stomach cup by cup.

Kasiu grabbed two napkins and wiped his hands, still chewing on the octopus sticks he had just stuffed in.

"You are like this, let others see how much ......" Before Fan Pu could say the word "person", the door was slammed open.

"Those guys are really nagging. Ake slammed the door and threw the paper on the table, apparently never opened, just like she had taken it. After saying that, he looked up at Kasiu, who was hurriedly chewing half of an octopus hand and swallowing it in his stomach, smiled, and said, "It's okay, eat slowly." ”

Lei Luo patted Cassiu's back, pointed to the bracelet that Cassiu had put in his bag, and whispered to Cassiu, "Take it quickly." ”

Kasiu picked up the bracelet in his left hand, stood up and trotted to Ark, and mechanically turned the reverse side up and handed it to Ark. "That...... Sister, give. ”

"What's wrong with Klee?" Ake looked at Cassius in surprise, then at Lei Luo and Fan Pu, and then took the bracelet and carefully identified the order of the sapphires. The metal frame has been polished into small fine lines, and the dirt on the gemstone has become much duller.

"Oh my God...... This guy's three sons are all so old...... When did it ......" Ake looked at Cassius in surprise and then looked at Lei Luo.

"Well, I'm sorry...... Sister Ke, I'm not the son of Kasei's father, I'm just Kasui's friend" Lei Luo smiled awkwardly, and then glanced at Fan Pu, who was very unhappy in his heart. Fan Pu whispered in Lei Luo's ear, "Anyway, I don't like to be a casual son." Fan Pu kept pinching Lei Luo's legs, pinching Lei Luo's smile very stiffly.

After a moment of silence, Ark pulled the chair next to his desk and sat down in front of Lei Luo, turning his face to Cassius and saying, "How are they now?" It's your mom and dad. ”

"My mother has passed away, and my father is on Oasis Island, and he doesn't seem to be doing well, let me give you this bracelet, oh and, this letter. When Cassius saw the bracelet as soon as he saw it, he remembered the letter and regretted that he hadn't glanced at what was written on it earlier.

Ake took the letter from Cassiu's hand, glanced at it, and placed it on the coffee table, without saying anything more.

There was another long silence.

"I'm sorry, I really don't know......," Cassiu was about to say more when Ake interrupted him.

"He's written very clearly, needless to say," Ake looked up, looked at Cassiu, and continued, "He said, let me take care of you, you're all right...... Come on. Ake didn't look up.

"So, did he have any deep friendship with you when he was alive?" Catheus understood the meaning of Ake's words, and asked, "And what is the meaning of that action just now?" Let me give you the bracelet with my left hand. ”

"I'll tell you slowly," Ark looked at Kasiu and said, "I met him in Dumeng, and as the princess of Ice Barrier, I went with my father to attend the post-war meeting held by the Dumeng Luo Gaofeng Peace Association, when I was very young, just over ten years old, I met your father. ”

Ake said slowly, "At that time, I just met your father, and you probably haven't given birth yet, at that time, your father was only 17 years old, and your mother was 16 years old, so they liked each other very much" Ake said with a smile, "I remember knowing your father less than 3 months ago, your mother was pregnant with you, and I still remember that he was scolded by his father." Later, if it weren't for Di Fu to protect your mother, I guess there would be no you now. Let's talk about it......"

Sighing, Ake reached out and picked up Lei Luo's cup of tea that he hadn't drunk yet, took a sip, and then said: "I was only more than 10 years old at the time, your father was 17 years old, a queen, a commoner, the age difference and status difference are big enough, we can know each other, it is because I ran out without permission and almost fell into the rift valley of Luo Fengfeng, Di Fu helped me out of danger, just happened to know your parents, they are very good to me." Later, your parents helped me plan and successfully won my father's trust, and passed the position of queen to me with peace of mind, instead of my sister, and I abdicated myself and my mother to become the old king and queen. Later, I left your parents with the bracelet I always wore when I was a child, which is this bracelet. I deliberately handed it to him with my left hand, the child was naughty, but I didn't expect him to take it as a code...... I didn't expect that time to say goodbye to them. Twenty years later, I really didn't expect that what I used to hand them this way will now be handed to me like this. ”

Ake looked at Cassiu, smiled, and didn't say anything more.

Kaxiu didn't ask anything anymore, he lowered his head, Lei Luo and Fan Pu couldn't see his expression.

Fan Pu's mouth twitched, and he whispered to Lei Luo, "What's the situation?"

Lei Luo replied: "We are not the parties, so we can't experience that feeling." Lei Luo also remembered the feeling that Fan Ran had given him Renault's relics, so he didn't say anything more.

In the silence, there was a burst of music from downstairs that became louder, and it was still the same song.

Section V

The surface of the lake ripples, the towering trees next to it sway westward with the wind, and the motionless mountains look at the white clouds, passing by themselves, and walking away.

What was once a grassland was reduced to a battlefield, and now the battlefield is now a grassland again. The breeze brought up dust, and only then did it cover up the blood-red sand.

In the end, it was Lei Luo who took the initiative to break the silence and said, "Sister Ake, can you tell us about the previous war? Fan Pu and I fled here because of the war in Zuolu. In addition, I am from Narushu, and I don't know anything about these things, and you are still a key figure in the Guanshu country, so you must know more than ordinary people. As Lei Luo spoke, he pinched Fan Pu's calf under the table in turn, motioning for him to agree.

"Ahh That's right, that's what Lei Luo said, can you tell us something?" Fan Pu reacted and immediately agreed.

Because it was a transparent table, Ake clearly saw the two pinching the two below, so he no longer put on a serious expression, smiled, coughed twice, and said: "Your name is Lei Luo, right, I can tell you what I know, but talk in another place, there are many 'people' here." Ake pronounced the word "human" very seriously, ignoring Fan Pu's already darkened face, then got up and walked to the door, turned his head and said to Lei Luo: "If you want to know, come with me, Kaxiu and the other can go around the castle first." ”

Ake quickly walked out of the room, and Lei Luo quickly said to Fan Pu: "Don't think about it, maybe someone is eavesdropping, you two go to the next floor and wait for me, and I will go to you immediately." As soon as he had finished speaking, he strode out of the room and followed Ake to the study.

"That Ake seems to be very upset with me," Fan Pu pouted, shouting angrily. "What's the big deal? ”

Seeing this, Kaxiu panicked, so he followed Lei Luo's meaning and said to Fan Pu: "Maybe someone is really eavesdropping, I believe in Lei Luo and Ak." With that, Cassius accidentally pushed the bag on the side of the table and fell to the ground, scattering the things Cassius had stolen, and even the heavy clothes were poured out.

Compasses, knives, salt, all sprinkled all over the ground. The smooth floor of the ice quickly forms a thin layer of water with the contact of salt.

Ka Xiu hurriedly stuffed everything into his bag, and hurriedly said to Fan Pu: "I always felt that this place was a little strange, so let's hurry up and wait for Lei Luo downstairs." Didn't you just ask if there was a concert downstairs, let's go down and have a look," Cassiu smiled unnaturally and said to Fan Pu.

"I'm sorry to throw your friend in that house, after all, the house is equipped with surveillance and it's not convenient to talk. Ake pulled Lei Luo to the corner of the last row of bookshelves and said to Lei Luo, "I secretly hid snacks when I was a child, and I hid here to eat, and the only thing this castle can't be photographed by surveillance is here." Ark whispered to Lei Luo as he probed his head to see if there was anyone else around.

Lei Luo obviously didn't care about this problem, so he said: "You took all my friends away, what do you want to say mysteriously, big sister" Lei Luo said helplessly.

"I am only thirty years old, call me eldest sister......" Ake no longer looked mysterious, and said angrily: "Let's get down to business first, what I'm saying now is something that is not allowed to be revealed to the public." Let me make a long story short, President Zuo Luyuan passed away yesterday, and then Vice President Li Cheng directly came to power as president, and it is useless for people to oppose it. Looks like that guy is going to war with us. ”

Ake whispered, "Chenghai has declared war with us a month ago, but there has been no movement or troops so far, and the whole country is at a loss. No one could figure out what those guys were trying to do, we had to strengthen our defenses, and we couldn't do anything, and the army of the ice fortress was not good at taking the water route at all. Ake said, patting Lei Luo on the shoulder again.

"Ice Barrier may have to ally with other countries, and if there is a war at that time, we will transfer the people to Miao Valley, Ice Barrier did this twenty years ago, so I suggest that you and your friends go to Miao Valley as soon as possible, don't stay in Ice Barrier, I'm sorry I can't help you" After Ake finished speaking, he added: "The reason why I only called you alone is because you have a little ability in a few of you, your friend named Fan Pu, I don't believe that he is willing to listen and can remember." But Kasiu I really can't take care of him, and I'm really sorry for his parents. Because the ice barrier is too dangerous now, I don't guarantee that he will stay here, I have a deep friendship with the queen of Miao Valley, and I will write to her to take care of you. You can go to Miao Valley and look for her directly. I'm leaving, you find them as soon as possible, get out of here, this place could be blown up at any moment. Let's meet the four of us soon. After Ake finished speaking, he didn't hesitate and walked out directly.

By the time Lei Luo walked out of the study, Ake didn't know where to go, and suddenly, just as Lei Luo was thinking about what Ake had just said, he suddenly heard someone behind him shouting his name, which startled Lei Luo.

"Run! I noticed that a few people were following us all the time, and then Cassius and I tried to get rid of them, and they rushed straight at us. Fan Pu panted and finished saying this.

"Wait, what the hell is going on? What are they doing with you?" Relo's brain exploded.

"We don't know, but I heard them say that we are members of the underground party of the Tokyo League, and they want to arrest us. "Cassiu's originally fair face is now like a dead man, without any bloodshots. Apparently this is no joke.

Standing on the cliff, who doesn't want to rein in the horse. Lei Luo reacted and ran towards the other end of the hallway.

But trapped in this seemingly unbreakable Cheng Bo, there is not much hope of escaping. Following the spiral staircase of the castle annex, I had just reached the courtyard and was surrounded by soldiers.

"Tell me, what are you for, what do you want to do here? Brown hair lay dead on his head, and the man was looking at the three people sitting on the ground in the cell. The air in the dungeon was damp, and the gray stone brick walls were crawling in and out of the cracks, watching for each other.

"I said we were wronged!" Fan Pu stood up, held the iron railing, and said very angrily: "We are not an underground party of the Dumeng, do you have any evidence! Don't just wronged people at will!" Fan Pu himself has great strength, and the iron fence that is not very thick has been pinched and deformed by him.

If it weren't for the fact that we saw you dropping your uniforms out in the surveillance, we wouldn't have imagined that you little hairy children were actually members of the underground party. The brown-haired man, holding the thick set of clothes that the boatman had given Cassiu, gestured triumphantly in front of the three of them.

"Can we and A... Let's talk to the queen" Lei Luo asked Fan Pu not to be impulsive, and slowly eased up and said, "We don't know where this dress came from"

"No, this dress was given to me by the boatman I spoke of. Cassiu looked at Lei Luo and said this with a little trembling.

"You see, I've admitted it, what else is there to say. Wait for the announcement. The man laughed, stuffed the outfit into his bag again, and strode out of the dungeon.

"What the hell is going on!Are you the so-called underground party?!" Fan Pu angrily argued at Kaxiu.

"No...... No, when I left Oasis Island, I thought it would be good to take their clothes...... I'm sorry......" Cassiu looked at Lei Luo aggrievedly, hoping that Lei Luo could help him say something.

"I knew, and I said how could I be with my father's killer. Ark walked out of the back of the dungeon, grimaced at Cassiu, and appeared at the front of the cell. "You guys are so bold, those guys dare to keep their things, you are merciful that you were not killed on the spot. Ark sat in the place where the man had just been sitting, and Ark climbed up the ladder and twisted the surveillance head down to make sure he couldn't see himself and the three people in the cell. After coming down, three identical bags were dragged out from the back of the cell.

"The queen can't decide anything, only the king has the right, but unfortunately I haven't looked for the king now, only my dad has the final say. Even if you are wronged, I can't say anything. Ark sighed, but suddenly glared, and whispered to Relo, "I just put a hammer on the windowsill at the back of the cell, this cell hasn't been repaired for many years, you can pry open the wall at the back of the cell in a few clicks, it's very simple, I pry it once when I was a child." And I specially explained to let you go, why do you still have so many things......"

The three of them didn't react to anything, and Ake continued endlessly: "Fan Pu, I secretly helped you transport your broken motorcycle to the balcony of my house, you should be able to take three people, right? Don't forget to take these bags I prepared for you when you leave, I looked at your luggage, those things are not used in the wild." Again, let's see you again. Ark suddenly slapped the cell door, changed his expression to an unhappy expression, and left the dungeon.

"What did she just say?" Fan Pu asked with a confused expression, paused for a moment, and then quickly picked up the hammer on the window and began to hit the loose masonry fiercely.

"The queen behaved very well, she actually went to interrogate the prisoners, and it seems that she does not care about state affairs as she seems. The brown-haired man was still smiling confidently in the surveillance room. But the laughter didn't last more than a minute before it stopped, turning into angry roars and gritted teeth and twisted expressions. Because at this moment, in the surveillance camera of the cell, Kaxiu quickly picked up three things that he couldn't see clearly, and ran out of the monitoring range of the cell with Lei Luo Fan Pu.

"Lei Luo, take the elevator or climb the stairs!" Fan Pu saw the people chasing after him, and shouted loudly at Lei Luo.

"Elevator, elevator! Where did we come from so hard to climb so high!" Cassiu was the first to run into the elevator, and Lei Luo and Fan Pu ran in one after another, and quickly pressed the button on the top floor.

"Why bother, this is ...... Everywhere you go, you become a fugitive, and I forget about the unjust death. Fan Pu panted and complained, while preparing to wait for the elevator door to open for a second sprint.

The elevator door opened, and before the guards could catch up, the three of them quickly ran through the door to Ake's office.

Fan Pu kicked the door open very rudely, and when Cassiu and Lei Luo came in, they quickly blocked the door with the sofa, only to find that Ake was not in the room, but the motorcycle was on the balcony.

The people behind had already caught up, and Fan Pu had just deployed the motorcycle.

"Lei Luo, sit in the back, hug my waist, Ka Xiu, sit in front of me, lie on your stomach, hold the handlebars tightly!, don't look up to block my view!" Fan Pu shouted at Lei Luo and Cassiu. Then he closed the balcony door and curtains.

"Those three bags, Lei Luo, you take them! Don't even think about getting our things! These are enough, move quickly!" Fan Pu could already hear the sound of the door being slammed open.

The guards immediately opened the curtains, but saw nothing but the mountains howling in the wind and snow after nightfall.

In the sky above the ice barrier, the cold wind is fierce, the snow-capped mountains are looming in the flying snow, and a bumpy motorcycle is heading to the southeast of the ice barrier.

Ake stood on the city wall, and the blue-haired woman at the meeting in the wind and snow came running over and said, "A prisoner has just escaped, I heard that you interrogated them just now, nothing happened, right?" Instead, Ake smiled a little charmingly, and said softly, "Mom, I'm fine." ”

The wind stopped, and the rippling surface of the lake gradually turned into a mirror, reflecting the blue sky, accompanied by bubbles rising from the bottom of the lake, causing round waves from the center of the lake.

The fog lifted.
