Night’s Nomenclature

"Master, should we tell grandpa about this?" Li Ke asked.

The off-road vehicle is heading south facing the rising sun.

They were alone when they came out of City 18, and then they met the Freemasons. After two days of excitement, they were alone again on the road.

This is like a period of life. Everyone will experience the hustle and bustle, and then return to loneliness.

The road is always your own, and there is never a feast that never ends in this world.

Qingchen thought for a moment: "Don't tell me. The old man doesn't have much time left, so don't let him know about the death of his friend."

"Yeah," Li Ke thought for a while and responded. .

In fact, Qingchen had no right to make decisions for the old man, but he did worry that the old man would not be able to survive No. 002 Forbidden Land after learning the bad news.

In the evening, the old man finally woke up completely.

At this time, Hu Xiaoniu was exhausted, so he replaced Qingchen as the driver. Although he was a novice on the road, he drove extremely skillfully.

The off-road vehicle walked steadily on the wilderness.

In the distance is the sunset, surrounded by plains and wilderness. The whole world seems to be coated with a layer of orange-red oil paint, magnificent and lonely.

Li Ke helped the old man up in the back row and fed him a little with warm water from the thermos.

Qingchen suddenly couldn't help but ask: "Old man, how did you and your friend meet?"

He looked up in the rearview mirror, only to find that the old man was stunned.

The old man asked: "You have seen him, right?"

Qingchen was silent for a moment: "Yeah."

"You have seen him, but you don't want to tell me, so he is dead," the old man said his guess.

There was silence in the car.

The old man thought for a moment and said, "You didn't tell me because you were worried that I wouldn't be able to carry the forbidden place No. 002 after hearing the bad news about my old friend, right?"

"Yeah," Qingchen nodded.

"Don't worry, I'm not that fragile," the old man said, "and I've seen too many partings in my life."

"You seem to know that he will die," Qingchen said.

"Let me first tell you why we got acquainted," the old man said with a smile: "At that time, I was not as old as I am now, and I especially liked to go out through the secret passage of Akihabara. One time I went to a bar I often go to. , that bar is hosting a beer drinking contest.”

"Most of the people in the bar were drunk that night, and we were the only two left in the end," the old man recalled, looking at the sunset. "Later, we both got drunk too, and we don't remember what happened. According to Li Yunjing, at that time The two of us went to the Red Star Boxing Gym and said we wanted to compete in a qualifying match together, and we smashed a lot of other people’s things. I had no money in my pocket at the time, and it was Li Yunjing who helped pay the gym a sum of money, so we didn’t get beaten.”

"Since then, I would often call him when I went out to drink secretly, and then do some very outrageous things. Thinking about it now, that was probably the rare happiness in my life."

"When did you know that he was a member of the Generation of Gods," Qingchen asked.

"Actually, I knew it the next year. Li Yunjing followed him for three months and found some clues," the old man said, "but I didn't expose him, and he never reported my itinerary to the gods. It seems that as long as If everyone pretends to be more similar, we can continue to be friends.”

The old man continued: "In the third year, his mother was seriously ill, but the Jindai family refused to let him return to the north. He was very depressed during that time, and I also knew why he was depressed, so I took the initiative to give him An important piece of information, so that he has status and is qualified to make conditions with the family."

"He went back to the north to accompany his mother for the last time, and when he returned to City No. 18, he took the initiative to confess everything to me," the old man said with a smile: "He felt very guilty at that time, and I took the opportunity to fine him eight A glass of wine, this time I win the drink.”

"From that time on, he kept asking me to take advantage of him once, so that he could have some peace of mind."

"But in fact, I know that he has decided in his heart that as long as I use him once, he can choose to die without guilt, so that he does not have to suffer the torture between family loyalty and friend loyalty. Riku Dou-kun, and those in the Jindai family People are different. Sometimes I just think that it is so rare for a person like Riku Dou-kun to come out of that dirty family."

"So you know that after using him this time, he will definitely die," Qingchen said softly, "Then why are you still using him?"

The old man smiled: "You may want to hear a very philosophical answer, or an answer that can make my image shine again, but my answer is very simple, because I am the master of the Li family."

Qingchen was silent.

Just because he is the head of the Li family, he is willing to be 'imprisoned' in the mountainside manor for the rest of his life.

Just because he is the master of the Li family, he wants to use the best opportunity to get rid of the person who has the best chance of becoming a demigod in recent years in the Gods.

There has never been a way to have both worlds in this world, not even Kamishiro Riku Dou, nor Li Xiurui.

"Qingchen," the old man said with a smile: "It is precisely because you knights have never been bound by the world that I envy you, so please don't imitate me."

When Qingchen raised his head, he suddenly saw two lines of tears streaming down the old man's face in the rearview mirror, but he was still smiling.

"Old man, is this world really that complicated?" Qingchen asked inexplicably.

"No, if you live a simple life, the world will be simple," the old man replied, "Boy, I don't have the ability to ask the world to change the rules for me, but I hope you can."

…

…

Countdown to return is 31:00:00.

17 o'clock in the evening.

Qingchen, who was in the off-road vehicle, once again saw the magnificent tree, standing like a sky in the middle of the 002 Forbidden Land.

No matter how many times he has seen it, Qingchen will always feel particularly shocked when he sees it again.

At this moment, Hu Xiaoniu suddenly exclaimed: "Brother Chen, there seems to be a colorful tail trailing down from outside the crown of the big tree!"

Qingchen looked over, and sure enough, a more than ten-meter-long tail was trailing outside the tree canopy, while the opponent's body was hidden in the tree canopy.

The old man was wrapped in his sleeping bag and stared blankly: "It turns out that what he said is true."

This ‘him’ is Li Shutong’s master and the old man’s best friend.

Decades ago, when that friend described the beauty of the outside world to the old man, the old man always felt that the other party was lying to him, because not even the Federal Army had taken corresponding photos, nor had they found such magical creatures.

For the old man, all this is like a dream he has been dreaming about for decades, and he finally gets to see it today.

The old man looked a little crazy.

The next moment, a shadow floated in the sky, just covering the moving off-road vehicle below.

Hu Xiaoniu stuck his head out and was stunned. The huge Qingshan Falcon was hovering in the sky, and its wingspan gave people the illusion of blocking out the sky and the sun.

A chirp.

Qingchen was stunned for a moment.

Because he actually understood what the other party meant: "Come back so soon? Where is that old boy Li Shutong?"

Qingchen thought for a while and shouted to the sky: "My master went to the north, and this time I brought new knights."

Qingshan Falcon chirped again: "Are we going to have two more annoying brats? Don't bring so many knights out. Too many knights will easily cause trouble."

Qingchen: "..."

It seemed that after he became a knight, he met the conditions for inclusion in Forbidden Land No. 002, and he could even understand the meaning conveyed by the creatures in the Forbidden Land.

Qingshan Jun ignored the off-road vehicle and flew back to the forbidden land No. 002.

The old man asked curiously: "Is this the Qingshan Falcon?"

"Yes," Qingchen nodded: "I have a good relationship with the knight."

The old man asked again: "It seems to be talking to you, can you understand it?"

Qingchen nodded: "Yes."

"What does it say?"

"It says knights are welcome home."

The old man was envious: "This big falcon is quite hospitable."

The off-road vehicle drove towards the big tree, but Qingchen slowed down before long.

"What's wrong?" the old man asked.

"There is a convoy parked outside the Forbidden Land No. 002," Qingchen said: "There are vehicles from the Freemasonry and vehicles from the Federal Army."

Altogether, there are estimated to be hundreds of vehicles, making the outside of Forbidden Land No. 002 look like an expanded parking lot.

The Masonic vehicle was in tatters and had obviously gone through a fierce battle. It must have been driven into Forbidden Land No. 002 by the Federal Army.

Qingchen said to Hu Xiaoniu: "Look at the wilderness outside to see if there are any bullet casings."

"Yes," Hu Xiaoniu responded: "And the bullet casings are quite dense. It seems that there was a battle."

At the parking lot of the Federal Army Group, there were dozens of people on guard near the car. When the other party saw a vehicle approaching, they immediately raised their weapons.

"I saw their unit numbers. They should be from the 198th Division of the Second Federal Army. They are the direct troops of the Chen family," the old man said. "The south has always been the private territory of the Chen family. Spades help the wilderness people and time walkers." If we rebuild our homes here, we are bound to offend them.”

"Most of them should have chased into Forbidden Land No. 002," Qingchen wondered: "Didn't it mean that the federal army would not easily enter the Forbidden Land to hunt down the wilderness people?"

He remembered clearly that Dingdong's mother was driven into the Forbidden Land by the Federation Army, and then she escaped pursuit and finally gave birth to a new life in the Forbidden Land.

At that time, the Federal Army was stopped on the edge.

If there were no shadow candidate missions like Qinghuai's, no one would enter the forbidden land with nothing to do.

The old man said: "This Forbidden Land No. 002 is originally on the Chen family's territory. They know it better. In the early years, the Chen family has been using prisoners to test the rules of the forbidden land."

"Wait a minute, look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuａ.com. Can prisoners be brought out by them in prison?" Qingchen asked curiously, Yi should not allow such a thing to happen.

"They are not already in jail," the old man explained: "They used the PCE Security Committee to catch the suspects, and then without filing a public prosecution, they were directly put into Chen's secret prison to wait for use."

Qingchen was stunned for a moment, lynching?

Sure enough, humans still have various ways to avoid artificial intelligence.

Since artificial intelligence is so fair, it would be better not to send prisoners to prisons controlled by artificial intelligence, but to set up secret prisons.

The old man thought for a while and said, "We have no grudge against them. There is a Qing family logo on the car. They probably won't mind their own business, so just go around it."

However, just as the old man finished speaking, he saw Qingchen take out the 'Conquering People with Virtue' and fired a shot at the Federal Army's convoy.

The group of Chen's direct troops immediately got into their cars and chased after them.

The old man was confused: "What are you doing?"

Qingchen did not answer. He only did this because he remembered what Li Shutong said when he first climbed Qingshan Cliff: You still lack an opportunity.

Now, Hu Xiaoniu and Li Ke also lack an opportunity.
