Kingdom’s Bloodline

Chapter 8: Cold

In his long-lost sleep, he seemed to have returned to that strange and bizarre world. Le Wen novels

There, the girl with a vague face but a gentle voice hugged him from behind, and said in a low voice:

"Why, very sad?"

He closed the computer and smiled bitterly: "No, this result is expected...Maybe I'm not good enough."

He lowered his head, a little frustrated: "You know, their requirements are very high..."

"It's okay," a gentle voice whispered in his ear, "I have a way to make this less sad."

He raised his eyebrows and shrugged: "Oh?"

"Because there is something more sad waiting for you."

He blinked his eyes, a little confused.

Just listen to her softly say:

"let's break up."

He shuddered.

The girl behind did not speak.

He turned his head stiffly: "What?"

"Well, you heard it right, because you are a failure now," she said flatly, "So, I want to break up with you."

His brain stopped working, he just stared blankly at her blurred face, dazed.

"For...why?"

The voice behind sighed: "Okay, that's it."

He was breathing in a trance, a little unacceptable, and wanted to justify something, but felt that it was a bit redundant.

she……

at this moment.

"good!"

The voice let out a chuckle and sounded happily.

"It's ten seconds since we parted - I declare,

We got back together! "

"Da da! Let me introduce my new boyfriend: Wu Qiren!"

His mind couldn't turn around.

What?

But seconds later, his heart started beating again.

He panted and looked at her in surprise: "You..."

"How about it, compared with the pain of being dumped just now, isn't it so sad?"

"When you encounter setbacks, you must cherish the 'crotch', ah 'crotch'!" The voice laughed and breathed in his ear, making him itchy: "My name is Lei Feng, you don't need to thank me."

He was a little dumbfounded.

That voice said happily: "Very well, if you have another tragedy in the future, I will continue to comfort you like this!"

He took a deep breath and shouted angrily: "Dead woman!"

"Could you stop breaking up and reuniting in such a serious way, just joking about breaking up and reuniting, hey!"

"I'll take it seriously, okay?"

There was a touch of a chin hitting his back from behind.

"Oh, what is this?" The owner of the voice said loudly while poking his back with his chin: "You don't know, there is a serial author on the Internet, whenever the plot reaches **, he will ... It seems like writing a 'complete book' at every turn, saying that I have finished the book, and then updating the next chapter without saying a word, insisting that I am writing a new book-that would be the best of the best!"

"Then don't learn from him, okay..."

In memory, that voice laughed happily.

His voice was full of exasperated exasperation and relief.

Finally, the voice stopped fighting.

She lay lazily on his back, hugging his chest.

"Hey, Qi Ren, don't be afraid," she said in a low voice, "No matter what happens."

"I have you covered."

He lowered his head and closed his eyes.

"Ah, I know."

"With you covering me."

The voice didn't speak, but the arms around him tightened a little.

But in just the next second, everything in the dream was like the reflection on the water surface, smashed inch by inch by the sudden waves!

The girl disappeared before his eyes.

Amidst his doubts, a cold and displeased female voice came from beside his ears, with a low tone, containing inexplicable emotions, which made the hair stand on end:

"I'm watching you."

"I warned you!"

The next moment, Thales woke up from his sleep!

He was panting heavily, that voice...

that voice!

At this moment, a hand was placed on his shoulder.

Thales turned his head in shock.

It's Gu.

The man who just shook him out of his sleep.

The man from the Far East squatted beside him, looking at him with displeasure, and beside him stood a sleepy little slippery boy.

"Wake up, Prince of the Stars," the butcher shop owner said calmly, "The person you are looking for is here."

"So fast?" Thales rallied, temporarily suppressing the dream scene, rubbed his eyes, and got up from the cold ground.

"He has a lot of connections, so it didn't take much time." Gu stood up and shook his head: "Besides, he's here to pick you up."

Thales was stunned.

He shook his head, waking up from the stupor just now.

"He came to pick me up?"

Under Gu's gesture, Thales and Xiao Slick followed him out of the door of the butcher's shop.

On the empty street, parked a two-wheeled carriage with a carriage, the carriage is transparent and cheap glass.

The driver on the carriage bowed his head respectfully, and beside the carriage stood a middle-aged nobleman with a golden ponytail, who exhaled.

"Your Highness, thank God!"

"Thank you for your help." Thales nodded.

"Time is running out, please get in the car immediately." The middle-aged nobleman breathed a sigh of relief after seeing him, he took off his hat, and saluted Thales: "We have experienced a wave of patrols after entering the armor area I swear it wasn't a city patrol, they weren't even local..."

Thales nodded, with a solemn face: "Of course, they come from the black sand collar—the Rumba plan has been around for a long time."

While the middle-aged nobleman was stunned, Thales looked at the carriage.

"Too conspicuous," Thales frowned: "Carriage? Transparent glass? Can we get out? And we have to go back to the Palace of Heroes..."

The middle-aged nobleman digested Thales' news, then raised his head to answer the prince's question.

"I used the name of the Shanliu City caravan to urgently unload important cargo from the armor area, plus the special order given to me by His Majesty..."

The nobleman raised his cane and knocked on the wheel of the carriage: "And I happen to know an order officer who collects black money. After opening some joints, he will turn a blind eye and close his eyes when he goes out from the blockade he manages. There is news that..."

"As for the glass, don't worry, this is a special carriage. You can only see me from the outside glass, not the rear. You can hide in the dark compartment if necessary."

Thales looked at the carriage and let out a breath.

"Then let's go." He raised his head and looked at the blond nobleman from Comus:

"Shiles, Marquis of Bermuda."

Shiles nodded, he opened the car door, and his eyes stayed on the little slippery guy hiding behind Thales.

"This is?" He narrowed his eyes.

The little slippery man flinched in fear.

"My maid saved my life on the way, so I can't leave her behind." Thales said calmly.

"Very well, then let's talk on the way." Shiles stopped asking, "I also need to hear your explanation about what happened."

Thales and Little Slick boarded Shiles' carriage, with Shiles sitting in front, and they hid in the space behind him, so they couldn't be seen from outside the car at all.

Just as the car door was closing, Thales poked his head out: "Anyway, thank you, Mr. Gu,"

The man from the Far East tilted his head, looked at him with a strange meaning, and showed an inexplicable smile.

"You don't need to thank me," Gu rubbed his hands, and said with a mysterious smile: "Thank Kaslan, go, and thank him for the six and a half yuan bread that he gave me back then..."

"enough."

Gu turned around and walked towards his butcher shop.

six and a half.

I see.

Thales smiled.

The doors are closed and the carriage starts.

Seeing Gu's figure disappear behind the door, Shiles frowned and said, "How did you get involved with the famous intelligence dealer in Dragon Clouds City?"

"Accident."

Thales said briefly: "A lucky accident."

Now, down to business.

The carriage drove through sections of the street.

He raised his head and looked at Marquis Shiles in front of him:

"Please tell me, are the Palace of Heroes and other cities still in Dragon Clouds City and under the control of the Walton family?"

Marquis Shiles frowned: "Before I entered the Kai District, everything from the White Blade Guards, palace guards, patrols and even the officials was normal."

"Of course, the king led the team to leave the palace, and the disaster and the return of the dragon made some guests, including the grand dukes, emotionally unstable, but Prime Minister Lisbane managed to stabilize them."

"However," he changed the subject and said in a low voice: "My eyeliner in the Hall of Order and the channels of my colleagues told me: His Majesty has not shown up, and no orders have been sent out, only sporadic White Blade Guards are resisting Appeared after the disaster, but found nothing..."

"From the chief garrison officer to the general order hall, they are very anxious. Not long ago, the prime minister was still discussing whether to ignore the king's ban and send a large number of patrols into the shield area."

Thales breathed a sigh of relief.

"So, the Heroic Spirit Palace and Dragon Clouds City are generally safe?"

"Safe? After meeting those patrols who questioned us, I doubt it," Shiles shook his head and said worriedly: "First of all, you have to tell me what happened in the shield area after the disaster raged? Your Majesty Woolen cloth?"

"And how did you get here?"

Thales took a deep breath, looked at Marquis Shiles who turned his head, and said word by word:

"King Nun was assassinated, he died."

Shiles froze in place, his expression changed subtly, up and down with the bumping carriage.

"The murderer is a man surnamed Suridon, and the person who hired him is Lumbard." Thales finished his words silently.

The little slippery head looked at them timidly.

"So, it seems that this is true." After a long while, Shiles came back to his senses. He rubbed his gloves and cane, subconsciously said: "The king is dead."

"Exter...is going to be messed up."

"The asphalt mine contract..." Marquis Shiles stared at his cane in a daze, as if he was urgently calculating the gains and losses.

Thales was silent and did not speak.

Soon, the carriage drove out of the Kai District, and entered a roadblock made up of patrol soldiers and repelling horses in the curved streets of Longxiao City—the martial law cordon had arrived.

Thales watched nervously as the driver talked to the leading order officer, and stuffed a letter and a money bag into his hands.

The officer of order glanced at the glass of the carriage, and Marquis Shiles waved him friendly.

The carriage was released smoothly.

Thales, who was lying on the ground with the little slippery head, finally let out a breath.

"Don't worry," Shiles smiled stiffly, "Businessmen have a lot of connections, and they are very useful—it's not a problem to deal with these low-level guys."

The number of people around the carriage began to increase.

There are whispering king capital residents everywhere, either describing themselves as wretched, or staying on the streets in ragged clothes, and many well-meaning people bring out food supplies to these poor people living on the streets.

"These are the evacuated residents who have been homeless for several hours—at least not until the king's ban expires." Marquis Shiles looked out the window and shook his head: "Of course, I heard that, Compared with those people in the Shield Zone..."

But at this moment, there was a huge commotion outside the window!

I saw a man running anxiously from the street, shouting loudly while running.

Thales and Shiles both frowned and looked at each other in surprise.

The crowd began to gather in one place, following the figure of the man.

The surrounding discussions became louder and louder, and soon turned into a raucous noise all over the sky.

Immediately, the emotions of the crowd began to get out of control. Some people roared in grief and anger, some were hysterical, and some shouted and cursed angrily.

Their carriage had to slow down.

Soon, the man disappeared into the crowd.

But the people did not disperse, they still gathered in circles, discussing enthusiastically in twos and threes with their loud voices, and there were many people who were excited and shouted and even fought violently.

The character of the Northlanders can be seen at a glance.

"What's wrong?" Thales felt an ominous premonition.

"I don't know," Marquis Shiles replied solemnly, "but we will know."

So, at the next street corner, Marquis Shiles deliberately stopped the carriage.

At his signal, a patrol soldier who maintained order but was arguing emotionally with his colleagues was invited to the carriage by the driver.

Marquis Shiles half-opened the door and poked his head out.

"I'm from Comus, and I'm His Majesty Nunn's partner." The blond ponytailed nobleman handed over a silver coin and released a friendly smile: "Can I ask what happened just now?"

The soldier seemed to have just experienced a heated argument, he was panting, looked at the silver coin in his hand, and was slightly taken aback.

He looked up again and saw the golden ears of wheat and the dagger marks on the carriage.

"My lord, such a big matter," the soldier calmed down his excitement, he seemed a little cautious after he came back to his senses, and stammered: "You, don't you know..."

"So I need your clarification." Marquis Shiles took out another silver coin and said gently, "Just choose what you know and say it."

The soldier looked at the silver coin in his hand again, and subconsciously put it in his pocket.

"That's right," the soldier straightened his armor, shook his head, exhaled, and his face became a little ugly: "Your Majesty, His Majesty Nunn was assassinated!"

Shiles' expression changed in due course.

"What's going on? How do you know?"

Thales hid behind the Marquis, gritted his teeth, and listened silently.

"I heard it from someone," the soldier looked at the Marquis's reaction, as if he was encouraged, his words began to flow smoothly: "The whole Dragon Clouds City is rumored that the murderer, the murderer..."

Thales was taken aback.

Marquis Shiles frowned: "Who is the murderer?"

"It's those imperial people!" The soldier raised his head and shouted angrily, "They want to cause civil strife in Exeter!"

The soldier's words became more and more indignant, with anger and hatred in his tone: "Damn the remnant of the empire, that Prince of Stars from the south... They colluded with the disaster, and even secretly ambushed the men and assassins..."

"Murdered the Great Born King in the Shield Zone!"

"Those bastards of the stars!"

Shiles sighed silently.

Behind him, under the terrified eyes of the little slippery head, Thales leaned on the carriage in a daze, panting in a daze.

My heart was icy cold.
