Chapter 420: The Wolfhead's Trust
Trust?
Wu Duxue was a little surprised to hear the wolf head say this, and her eyes were full of confusion.
"Surprised?"
The wolf head smiled bitterly, and then continued: "Because I only learned later that this is how he lived. β
"In that dark day, all our slaves are no longer the playthings of the Tidi, even food, in the face of that environment, no matter who it is, will gradually change, it is a powerless change, become like a beast, all just to fill the stomach."
The wolf's eyes dimmed slightly, and the emotions in his heart seemed to be smeared with gloom by those past memories.
"So, at that time, cruelty, inhumanity becomes extremely simple, and it doesn't need you to be cold-blooded, because you are the foundation of your survival."
The wolf head walked up to Wu Duxue's side and stood side by side with her, continuing to talk about his feelings.
Maybe it's been too long since I've talked to anyone, and the wolf head at this moment has become a little talkative.
"Even in that environment, there are still people who believe that our fate can be changed, so being recognized and eaten is a kind of trust, and he believes that I will cherish every piece of meat on his body, and it will make him suffer less."
Wu Duxue couldn't understand the trust that the wolf head said, and the trust in the wolf head's mouth was also a huge contrast and different from the thoughts she had been receiving.
"So the seniors are testing me, testing whether I will make a move."
Wu Duxue returned to the topic, and was also trying to avoid the topic of cannibalism, and the nausea in her heart finally subsided again.
"Actually, whether you make a move or not, you just saved yourself, didn't you?"
The wolf head glanced sideways at Wu Duxue, with a meaningful smile on his face, and continued:
"You didn't do that, but it doesn't mean that you believe that I won't do anything to you afterwards, and it is this move that is actually not suitable for the original person to let me eat his meat."
Wu Duxue only understood at this moment what the wolf's example was trying to express.
"There's no temptation, it's just that when we trust each other, we just build a bridge, let's say, what kind of conditions do you have."
The wolf head changed his words at this time, after all, for this extremely precious piece of cold ice, the wolf head knew that the price behind it was definitely not as simple as identifying the murderer himself.
Similarly, it was precisely because of what Wu Duxue did that the wolf head decided whether to agree to Wu Duxue's request.
Wu Duxue couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard the wolf head suddenly mention the requirements, and then she realized how naΓ―ve she was.
Many things, sometimes very simple, sometimes as difficult as the sky.
And the wolf head is obviously that smart man, and he can gain this trust by using what he has done, without saying a superfluous polite word.
If I had just done something clever, I am afraid that I should be the only one lying in this remote area now.
"Seniors should know the mission of our Wu family."
Wu Duxue said bluntly, although she heard the friendliness in the wolf's words, but after thinking of her own conditions, she was still a little unsure of the other party's attitude.
"Well, you told me before that your Wu family is the guardian of the ancestral tomb of the Ye Dynasty."
The wolf head nodded slightly, and then did not wait for Wu Duxue to speak, but had already guessed Wu Duxue's request, and asked rhetorically, "Do you want me to replace your Wu family?" β
When Wu Duxue heard the wolf's words, she smiled helplessly and nodded.
As the guardian of the ancestral tomb of the Ye Dynasty, the Wu family is not only guarding simple care, but also arranging for people to enter the ancestral tomb.
The ancestral tomb of the Ye Dynasty is not accessible to ordinary people, and it is impossible to enter and exit frequently, and there are two requirements that are difficult for ordinary people to meet for those who enter the tomb.
First, the entrant must have a grandmaster-level cultivation, otherwise he would not be able to survive in that cold and snow-covered environment.
Second, after entering, until the end of this life, you can't go out of the ancestral tomb of Ye Dynasty.
In previous years, there were many children of the Wu family, and this requirement was often arranged among the children of the family and decided by lottery.
But at present, the Wu family only has Wu Duxue as a backup, and this heavy responsibility naturally falls on Wu Duxue.
However, Wu Duxue's own cultivation is not enough, besides, the current Wu family, once Wu Duxue enters the ancestral tomb of the Ye Dynasty, it means that the Wu family will completely launch the stage of rectification of the Ye Dynasty.
The Wu family will not have any more descendants.
"Senior, I'm also forced to do this out of desperation, I..."
Wu Duxue wanted to open her mouth to tell her what happened, but unexpectedly, the wolf head directly waved his hand to interrupt Wu Duxue's words, and after thinking alone for a while, she nodded and agreed.
"I can help your Wu family guard the ancestral tomb, as long as you can trust it, as long as that emperor girl believes in me."
Wu Duxue didn't expect the wolf head to agree to her request so easily, and she was a little overjoyed, but she still said with some uneasiness:
"Are you really sure? This matter of guarding the ancestral tomb of the royal family is by no means as simple as the predecessors thought, and I will explain it to you clearly. β
"Hehe, some things are just an exchange of conditions."
The wolf head looked at Wu Duxue in front of him, and sighed at Wu Duxue out of kindness.
"Girl, it's not an exaggeration to describe my life, I didn't expect to meet you in today's situation, but I have a bit of a confidant, I don't let you continue, it's also for your good."
The wolf head looked at Wu Duxue beside him and said meaningfully.
"There are too many secrets, even if you and I exchange them, it is not suitable for me to know, because I know too much, and it is not a good thing for you and me."
When Wu Duxue heard the wolf head say this, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and she also heard some meaning from the wolf head's words.
That's right, theoretically speaking, the wolf head shouldn't actually know this, in other words, he just needs to tell the wolf head what to do.
"You fulfilled one of my wishes, and helped me come to the cold sky Xuanbing, how heavy this kindness is, if you don't say it, I will measure it."
The wolf head looked at Wu Duxue, and in his words, it was obvious that even if Wu Duxue didn't open his mouth, he guessed that Wu Duxue must have used everything in order to persuade Feng Yewu and the others.
"Second, you didn't take advantage of my weakness to make a move on me, which is also a kind of trust between you and me, and it is also one of our quid pro quo."
