Chapter 434 Family Past
Walking in the corridor after dusk, Bai Cixi was still a little breathless, and the fear in his heart did not come from his own experience, but from the deep sadness of his companions. It doesn't matter if Bai Cixi will be involved in the continuation of the Resentful Spirit War, or if he himself will die, but it is intolerable to let the people around him who should be protected also happen. The decisions he had made over the past few days, and the setbacks he had suffered, had made it difficult for the young leader to hold on.
He took another deep breath, an action that clearly caught the attention of the Wayne mage beside him. Wayne, one of the top six members of the Arcane Core. Provence has not only personally experienced such world-class ruins as the War of the Spirits, but he is also the mentor of Bai Cixi for several days. For most of his life, Lord Wayne has been determined to restore his family's past glory, and although the Provencal family has not improved so far, he has frequently found good up-and-comers in recent years.
Dante ten years ago, Bai Cixi ten years later, although one of these two people is a mask and the other is a man, this does not affect the pertinent evaluation. Wayne stretched out his hand and patted the shoulder of the young man beside him, and for the first time he said calmly and unguardedly: "You have done a good job, and there will be no profit in a sense of increasing the pressure and difficulty for yourself, it's time to take it easy." You must know that your sincerity can allow you to admit your mistakes and apologize to your subordinates, and your affinity can be empathetic and praise your subordinates and ease the other person's mind, this is already the standard, and it is time for us to close the net, isn't it? Now we're going to dinner, and then we have to talk about something going on. ”
Exactly what happened Wayne isn't clear here, but it doesn't matter. The so-called truth will only rise and fall because of the difference in time. Bai Cixi understood Yoon's mood, this kind of strategy of the superior trying to encourage and boast about the peace of mind of the lower position was also used by Lu Xiyuan, on the one hand, it was a strategy of the art of war. On the other hand, it does contain the concerns of the superiors. Bai Cixi, who was imagining the future, suddenly focused his thoughts on Yorn, although it was impossible for this guardian heir to invoke his thinking desires, but his thinking was far-reaching enough to surpass the approaching goals of others.
Being able to feel Jorn's breath from afar, although this clairvoyant feeling was uncomfortable, the truth was there, and the boy couldn't help but feel uplifted. He casually asked, "Is Jon, he's back?" Bai Cixi, who could sense the survival of Jon, did not know the specific situation, so if his servant returned to the mountain, then Wayne's own servant would report to his master as soon as possible.
However, Wayne still shuddered uncomfortably at the belated inquiry, and then the middle-aged man calmed down and replied with an empty sentence: "Not necessarily, my servant did not accept anyone, and my feelings point to the most unfavorable outcome." ”
The most unfavorable outcome
Bai Cixi fell, looking at the back of the * master walking forward, and unconsciously the sunlight disappeared behind the forest. He couldn't believe the discrepancy between his prediction and the mage's. Either way, it doesn't seem to end well. Where is Yor, Bai Cixi came to the restaurant downstairs and saw his companions who had not been long ago, basically except for Leoya and Lu Xiyuan, everyone was there, sitting as they were and waiting for the head of the family and the leader.
"Is Jon back?" Bai Cixi stretched out his hand and pressed it on the long table covered with a white tablecloth, not caring at all that his tangled fingers were kneading the noble tablecloth. Compared to the previous ones, this leader was really anxious, and even Fu Linmei didn't know how important Yoon was to this boy.
"You calm down, they didn't come back, though" Fu Linmei looked away and forgot about herself, although the words later, she saw Bai Cixi's empty and anxious attitude a little sad, because she also wanted to say that Bai Cixi was actually too nervous, although it was still very early from the previous return time, and they didn't arrive halfway when everyone was having dinner. Today, Fu Linmei didn't dare to say the ridiculous words, the prophecy that Lu Xiyuan popped out was guaranteed by the power of angels, and Master Wayne seemed to be stern. The whole thing is moving closer to a certain unfavorable point, and if you casually destroy the atmosphere, there will definitely be a five-fifty probability of being despised and looked down upon by everyone.
Hearing the voices of his companions, Bai Cixi, who was the heir of the Guardian, finally felt a little more normal, he adjusted his breathing and sat down to give the other side a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm excited again." At this time, your construction is very correct. Bai Cixi touched the folded tablecloth and diverted his anxiety, if there were any three long and two short like a brother, this was indeed very frightening, but Bai Cixi would not be so emotional as to care about the safety of his current companions.
"Okay, calm down, can you listen to me about something?" Master Wayne always likes to end at the end, and when I had the pleasure of having dinner with him for several days, all the topics discussed were the same, whether it was the dispute between Lu Xiyuan and Bai Cixi's educational philosophy, or the discussion between Fu Linmei and Yoon on the principles and policies. This time, everyone turned their heads to listen to the old man's advice, and even Mo Le was able to remember everything he said completely. The mage spoke, "The situation has changed a bit, you asked about Harroda some time ago. Moore's thing, I didn't mean it at the time."
"So you're trying to explain it now, sir?" Mo Le suddenly interjected, but this time it did not cause everyone's laughter or dissatisfaction, and the audience just waited patiently in silence.
"I still don't have that will, and I don't want to mention that the man's mind hasn't changed, until you'll see that it's better not to mention it. Of course, this does not mean that there are many things that you just don't want to do but still have to work hard, such as war. "The clapping mage summoned two servants, and the volley appeared in the sky to hand the mage towel and serve him tea, and then disappeared again without a trace when the action was over." Haroda. Moore, the old mage, is also an existence associated with war, although his actual time is a human hundreds of years ago, but his identity has been reappearing for hundreds of years, most recently even in the Wraith War, which is said to be behind him. Of course, this qiē is a legend, and we in Provence have known this old man since hundreds of years ago, when the head of the family was a brother to Haroda, and the original mage was as studious and righteous as most mages. Even the ancestors of Provence, who were in the arcane core at the beginning, sent a letter to the *master Aleclet lamp, inviting the man to join. However, nothing happened, and Master Aleclay had no intention of letting Harroda enter the Black Lilac Castle from the beginning to the end. It was only later that many magical agencies, including Walmar, learned of his ambitions, his continued knowledge of necromancy, and his encounter with the leader of Rasmus' followers of Kekistan at the time, who abused magic and caused disaster that lasted for years.
Although the disaster was later brought to an end, and legend has it that Harroda himself had died, Keykistan's accomplice, the leader of the necromancer clan at the time, was not punished, and that man, in concert with the upper echelons of the masked, achieved a common good for society and the world at large through ordinary relief actions, and was thus exempt from condemnation from all sides. I can't tolerate the crusade against the dark mages who have been defeated and the necromancers are unharmed, and when I read history, I secretly made up my mind to fight the necromancers and the masked legions, how to repay the blood of innocent souls who were manipulated by inexplicable deaths many years ago? I'm going to ask for an explanation for the victims at that time. ”
* Shi slammed his fist on the table, ignoring the purple liquid of the wine glass that stained the white tablecloth, his eyes blazing, and the resentment of the past has haunted all the heirs of the House of Provence. Almost before the dark mage Harroda was brought to court, the lord of House de Provence refused to believe his friend's unbearable facts, and was eventually ostracized as a colleague and relegated to it. Wayne's family has been in a slump since then, because the man's existence has caused the family to decline, and because the man himself can keep the ancestors of a hundred years ago to death, and Master Wayne, who can't figure out this qiē, has been searching, looking for a way to solve the qiē, looking for the truth. At this point, Master Wayne shrugged and continued, "Do you know why I always like to be so arrogant at spell gatherings? It's really pitiful, I'm talking about myself, thanks to the gift of the * master Alecray lamp I can represent the family back to the arcane core, but this expensive status is in contrast to the mistakes made by the ancestors in the past, even if I am the * master, it is still not accommodated by the people around me, there is still only the curse of decline around the family, is it just because of the decision of the ancestors? I don't want my family to be humiliated, so I always put on a high posture before others say something ridiculed, only then can I regain what my family has lost, but it doesn't make any sense at all. Have you ever seen a hedgehog? Because of weakness and set up a barb to face others, because of poverty has to pretend to be lofty to alienate others, if you don't do this, my family really has nothing, let me start from scratch, I can only blindly continue to support my own face in a high profile. It is hypocritical to live, and my life now, living in the shadow of a big family, is like the greatest irony of life, a day when I try to atone for my sins and pray for true forgiveness.
"I don't pray to any god, God doesn't exist, that's what I think."
After the mage said this, his body was still trembling with excitement, what was the reason why he confided a lot of truths, was it because he saw Bai Cixi's calmness and sincerity, was it because he was terrified by facing the shadow of the past again?
