Chapter 8: The Reluctant Night Feast

As a descendant of Yan and Huang who has gone through two generations, of course the man will not take Saphius as his main name, he just can't stand being called his Chinese name by a group of foreigners all day long. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoYou know, he can't go back now, but he's going to spend at least his whole life here!

So, he gave himself the alias of Saphius, the meaning of which was no different from that of an ordinary English name. As for other people's perceptions, whether they will commit taboos or something, his heart that is so rebellious that it has a tendency to self-destruct will not pay attention to it. He even hoped that the devil lord named Saphoeus would really come to the door and fight a great battle, so that he could calm the beating frenzied flame in his heart a little.

So, how exactly is this guy going to arrange his name?

He plans to take one character from each of the names of the previous two lives as a commemoration, and as for the surname, he still follows his local tyrant father who has already gone safely. Therefore, his current name is "Ye Guyun", and according to the way this world is written, his full name is "Guyun, Saphius, Ye".

Ye Guyun, a bit of middle two, a bit of online style, who would take such a name from a normal person!

But, whatever!

I thought about it again, if we have been using the naming principle of "take one word in each life to commemorate", then, in the foreseeable future, my name will be longer than Mu Tombo's, and it will be much longer!

After all, he was already under the curse of infinite streams......

But, whatever!

confirmed, it was called Ye Guyun.

At this point, the other three people present calmed down a little, and with their three views and positions, it was really difficult to understand this kind of bastard thing that gave themselves the name of demons.

The classical table clock in the study rang again, and the hour hand on it pointed squarely to the nine o'clock position, and of course, it was already night.

The heavy bell woke up everyone in the room and rescued Ye Guyun from the indiscriminate bombardment. For the past hour or two, except for the moment when he had enjoyed a sumptuous dinner, he had been drowned out in the endless questioning of Osma and Frank.

The content of the question is nothing more than two aspects, the customs and humanities of his world, and the martial arts, especially the latter, because it has been shown in the Ice Peak Valley, with significant results and deep impressions, this kind of combat style that is very different from all known routines obviously attracts the most attention.

However, which of these two aspects of knowledge is not as vast as a sea of smoke? Even if it seems to be an independent martial art, it must involve philosophy, art, medicine, and other aspects. If you were to write a book, it would be 100% an encyclopedia, so it would be impossible to explain the question in a few words.

Many times, after answering one question, another question will be pulled, and after a new problem is solved, another question will be pulled, and the rest will be repeated. And this is still the best situation, because most of the sub-problems can lead to only one new question!

Oh my God~~!

The two curious babies are really energetic, and their academic attitude is even better, and the questions they ask are like a barrage of machine guns suddenly spitting out, and the formation is dense, without gaps, and they are smashed into the face one after another, and there is no chance to react.

What an agony it was!

It doesn't take long, one hour or three is enough to drive people crazy, if you put it for three or five hours, I'm afraid that even the old master Confucius, who advocates tireless teaching, will not be able to withstand it!

The sound of the table clock finally gave Ye Guyun a moment to breathe, and Luo Qi, who was sitting on the side and mending knives on a poor insect from time to time, finally noticed the former's unusual face, so he proposed to go out for a walk. This proposal was lightning echoed by Ye Guyun, so a so-called "academic seminar" was scattered.

"It's not magic, another system, another substance, the power in the body, the power of nature, what's it? Ouch, I don't understand......" Archmage Osma walked to his research room as he rolled his goatee under his chin. "It's still early," he prepares to take care of the corpse of the ancient stone worm - the thing he has managed to bring back from Icepeaks Valley. In recent times, he had gained a great deal of valuable first-hand information, almost enough to write a book that would make him famous.

A detailed book on the biology of ancient stone worms, which has not appeared for thousands of years.

Suddenly, Osma, who was muttering to himself, stumbled and was about to fall on his stomach - it turned out that he had been thinking so much that he took a wrong step and kicked his back foot on the front foot, causing his body to lose his balance suddenly.

In the exclamation of the onlookers, the blue giant palm that had just cleaned up Frank appeared in time, grabbed Osma's body, lifted it up, and then disappeared. Then, as if he had not noticed anything, the old man did not even change his posture, and continued to twist his goatee, and muttered with his head down, and walked towards his study.

"I'm ...... convinced," Ye Guyun felt that his face must be full of black lines at this time.

Roche, who was covering his forehead and couldn't bear to look at it, said, "Soon you will get used to it." Well, and him, Frank gets into this state a lot of the time. Sure enough, a good student taught by a good teacher......"

"Ahaha, most mages are like this......" In the face of this robbery, Frank really didn't have any good defense methods, so he had to touch the back of his head and play haha, diluting the topic, "Let's go, let's go, we should go." ”

After descending the tower, the three of them returned to the castle.

The night sky in the Middle Ages was supposed to be pitch black, even in the so-called big cities. The public lighting system is so backward and inadequate that it is not even possible to light up most of the main roads, and civilian dwellings lit only by oil lamps or candles are at best used as sporadic decorations in the dark night sky.

At the same time, the true city that never sleeps could only be found in the populous and economically prosperous Eastern dynasties.

Whether there is a similar Eastern Dynasty in this world, Ye Guyun didn't know, but the scene in front of him was enough for him to re-appreciate the prosperous scenes he had seen again.

The main fortress, which was huge and towering, but more like a palace than a fortress, shone like the Dragon Palace described in gay novels. Brilliant lights poured out from the windows of hundreds of rooms, illuminating half of the night sky, and together they formed a glorious feast of lights. It seems that every room in the main fort is filled with an excessive amount of light.

In addition, most of the roads inside the castle, at intervals, are either hung with extraordinarily bright wind lanterns or floating with colorful magic lamps.

Hey, it's a bit of a fire tree and silver flower, but I don't know how much animal fat, candles, and magic crystals will cost this kind of battle.

"Are your nights so splendid here? I can't imagine how rich you are. Ye Guyun turned his head to the two brothers and asked, with a little sadness in his voice, perhaps recalling the old days again.

I didn't think about it, this question didn't get a positive response, there was just Roche's convulsive face.

"What's wrong?"

"Please, such a grand scene, how can it be like this every night......" The bitterness and unwillingness could be easily tasted from Rochi's tone, "I guess, tonight alone, we have already spent a month's revenue of Crescent City......"

Ye Guyun raised his eyebrows, looked back at the gorgeous lights, but felt a little dazzling, as if he saw the gold coins melting rapidly, he said: "The great lord's generosity is really amazing. I think I already know why your guest is not welcome. ”

"No, no!" Rocchi shook his head, "you have only seen the appearance, part of the appearance, the deep cause of the inner that you have not yet touched. ”

Ye Guyun nodded and replied, "Politics is always dirty. ”

Luo Qi didn't expect Ye Guyun to answer himself with the phrase Frank had said not long ago, so he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and then said, "Well, it's closer to the truth." So, you might as well guess how it happened. ”

Ye Guyun didn't refuse, thought about it, and said firmly: "First of all, this guest's status is very noble, and his rank is even higher than your father's, maybe he is still a big man who has a certain amount of jurisdiction responsibility for Crescent City, such as governors, kings, etc., and belongs to the so-called top bosses. This is the kind of character that will make you have to spend a month's money to create a big scene that only lasts one night. ”

Luo Qi was surprised, praised it, and affirmed the other party's guess: "Not bad." This guest was indeed my father's immediate boss, Calf Webrocher, governor of the Northland province of the Republic of Grettes. Although the Governor is not a permanent office in the Republic, he is of great dignity and power, and he is in charge of the military and political affairs of a region, nominally only supervising and guiding, but in reality he is almost in a word. In a way, this position is not substantially different from that of a king. ”

Ye Guyun nodded again and said, "Thank you, I have one more clue." Then, it is not difficult to guess the source of the contradiction. It boils down to nothing more than one word - autonomy. You said that this is the Dominion of Crescent City in the Northlands of the Republic of Gretus, and your family has ruled it for generations. If you understand correctly, this autonomy represents total governance. Unfortunately, the noble governor was in charge of the Northlands. In this way, there is a good natural reason for antagonism. A bureaucrat, no matter how big or small, can not tolerate the existence of a force in his territory that is completely out of his control. ”

Roach bowed and praised, "Your wisdom has lit up the night sky." ”

"Forget it, I'm not going to replace your candles. Ye Guyun said expressionlessly.

The two brothers were stunned for a while, and it took a while to realize that this was a cold joke, and Frank smiled and said, "Ye, I didn't expect you to tell jokes too." ”

"It's just a conditioned reflex...... Ye Guyun's voice turned low, and he thought of that girl again, a girl who would grab his arm and bury it in his arms when she heard a similar cold joke, no matter how funny it was or not, and giggled non-stop.

"Ouch, what's the matter? I was telling a joke just now, and my face changed when I turned my head, this and this ......" Frank grabbed his hair irritably, and then put his hand on Ye Guyun's shoulder, "Ye, listen to me, really don't dwell on the past sadness anymore, you should look forward positively...... Look~!The high platform over there, we'll go there!Hey, that's the closest lookout in the castle to the sea, and you can enjoy the most beautiful sea and sky scenery in the world! I promise, you'll forget the pain after seeing it, at least temporarily!Come, let's go ......."

Is this a persuasive language? It is weak enough, the pointing is not correct, the strength is insufficient, and it lacks intellect. Ye Guyun slandered in his heart and silently followed behind.

So, the three of them walked towards Wanghaitai without hurrying.
