XXXVI. Negotiations failed
They won't eat me, bastards, and it seems that I need to really create a telepathic blade for the Shadow Wolves.
The great shaman's wooden hut is on the highest slope in the deepest part of the village, the leaves cover the surroundings like clouds, and in front of the door are two totems carved from trees, each with a hideous wolf head.
I walked into the house, and the great shaman was an old woman, and her shriveled face was wrinkled like a parched field.
Next to the old woman stood a white man with curly hair in glasses, he was about twenty years old, it was hard to imagine that such a person was also from the wolf clan, and his thin lips showed a mean smile, and at first glance it was clear that he was not a good person.
Takahashi said, "Great shaman." Then he said to the white man, "Kawaike." ”
Kawachi said, "Let this sinner kneel before the great shaman!" ”
I said angrily: "My leg is broken, how can I kneel?" Besides, I, Longinus, am the Duke of the Black Coffin and the Archbishop of Cain, and even when I see Cain, I will not kneel! ”
Kawachi walked up to me and kicked hard at my broken bone, my head was numb in pain, and I knelt down, and the pain in my heart rushed all over my body, which made Kawaike smile even brighter.
The green veil shut down my pain and I felt better.
The nun of plague said, "Aren't you going to rebel? ”
I sighed: "Benevolent, invincible, now that I have put down the butcher's knife and expelled the anger in my heart, what does it matter if I endure it for the time being?" ”
It's impossible for these werewolves to migrate to Wailing, and I don't want to persuade them, but I don't know what their strength is, so it's better to play dead and wait and see what happens.
Takahashi sighed, "It's not our way to torture people. Even Onizuka couldn't bear it a little and looked at Kawaike dissatisfied.
Kawachi coughed, turned around and walked back to the great shaman, he was like a bamboo that was strong on the outside and dry on the inside, and he walked quite funny.
Takahashi said, "He is the Black Nightmare, and we caught him on the way to hunt Enkidu. ”
I hurriedly said: "Nonsense, I'm not!" I'm a warrior known as the Shadow Behemoth, and that's the Shadow Wolves..."
Kawachi said to the guards on both sides, "Shut him up." ”
The hero didn't suffer the immediate loss, and I was immediately silent, but a strong guard hit me in the cheek with a heavy punch, and I was so painful that my eyes were full of gold and I was snorting.
Damn, don't go too far.
Takahashi said, "We have spent a lot of effort trying to catch the black nightmare, and we can't be mistaken, he is a black nightmare. ”
Kawachi nodded, "That would explain why he has such a prestige, he uses the power of the Black Nightmare." ”
Takahashi said, "Great Shaman, this man hunted Enkidu for us, and this should win the IBA's bounty in exchange for enough food to last this winter." However, the Black Nightmare is not worthy of forgiveness for killing countless of our compatriots, and I suggest that he be sent to the Wolf Mother Temple and sacrificed with his blood, as well as to the dead wolf clan. ”
The Temple of the Mother of Wolves? I remember the memories of the sea monster .... Is this temple the same as another temple?
Kawachi said: "Since it is a black nightmare, it must be very dangerous, and if it is to be transported to the Wolf Mother Temple, it will be a lot of trouble. You also know that the Mother of Wolves Temple is located in the Dead Land. ”
"But it's tradition," Takahashi said. ”
Kawachi sighed: "Takahashi, Takahashi, you are the same as Yongshui, don't you understand that guarding old traditions is as meaningless as guarding the tomb." ”
Takahashi said, "Eisui is the best warrior and the most famous hunter, but you fabricated charges to keep him out. ”
Kawachi: "Is that because he offended the Great Shaman, the sin is not light, and he thinks that he can override the authority of the Great Shaman if he has merit?" ”
Takahashi said angrily: "If you want to add sin, why bother? ”
Kawaike's eyes lit up with cruelty, and he said, "Be careful, Takahashi, I can clean you up at any time." ”
Although I don't like this Chuanchi, after all, his proposal is good for me, if he really wants to send me to the Wolf Mother Temple to be disemboweled, I would rather stay in this village and be scolded and beaten.
Takahashi added: "For the survival of the tribe, my team made a contract with IBA to hunt for them in exchange for a bounty, and won food for the tribe for at least thirty months. Is my merit obliterated by your slander? ”
Kawachi sighed, "Takahashi, Onizuka, why are you savage hunters stubborn? You know, trade and politics are the source of wealth, and if I say, wouldn't it be much better for an entire tribe to form an alliance with the Epoch Empire than for you to work hard and risk your lives for the IBA? ”
Takahashi said in a loud voice: "We have hunted for generations, that is our tradition!" And the Anno Empire is a despicable and shameless bandit! They will corrupt our young people with the so-called trade, corrupt our faith, and eventually swallow us up completely! ”
I said, "What Takahashi said makes sense, but we don't have a black coffin." ”
Actually, I secretly reflected on it, and felt that what I had done to the amusement park was no less than that of the Anno Empire, and I had learned from the previous experience, so I put up with it now.
Kawachi made a gesture, and the guard who had beaten me before took out a sharp-looking dagger and slowly stabbed it into my mouth, and I couldn't help but shudder as I stared at the blade. The guards pried my lips open with a knife and pressed them against the side of my tongue, and the blood dripped from the corners of my mouth, and I was furious, but I was well trained and didn't act cowardly.
Then the guard started cutting my tongue.
Onizuka couldn't bear it anymore and shouted, "Stop! The guard looked up at her, and the knife stopped.
Kawachi said, "We are werewolves, and we are not in the habit of treating captives favorably, let alone such enemies. ”
Takahashi said: "He is a powerful warrior, and he can be killed. ”
Kawachi: "Anyway, he's dead left and right, is there a difference?" The Eno Empire doesn't care if he's crippled or ruined, in fact, if it's a crippled Black Coffin Sword Saint, Ye Geli will only be happier. ”
Takahashi said to the great shaman: "My lord, you can't hand him over to the Era Empire, the Era Empire will not keep its promise, the bounty is too high, I remember you once said: 'Don't be greedy too much, it will only cause murder.'" ’”
The great shaman finally spoke, "Put away the knife." ”
When the five big and three rough guards heard this, they immediately complied.
The Great Shaman said, "When countless of our compatriots died tragically at the hands of the Black Nightmare, we all swore that if we could capture this enemy with the blessing of the Mother Wolf, we would slaughter him in the Temple of the Mother Wolf and pay tribute to the dead souls." ”
I noticed a red strap on her thin wrist, and a thumb-sized werewolf puppet hung from one end of the lacing, and one of the puppet's legs was lame.
Memories of the sea monster.
Kraken, is that you? The Great Shaman is the flower in your memory? She used to be nice to you.
The sea monster replied yes, but it was nothing, not worth mentioning.
No, no, it should be mentioned, and that could bring this farce to a peaceful end. Even though Blossom is old, she still remembers you, and maybe there was a love affair between you.
The sea monster thought this conclusion was ridiculous, more disgusting than its form: "She just felt that if someone was weaker than her, she wouldn't be ridiculed." ”
Don't deny the good in the hearts of men, and don't let the madness of Mokkawi subvert the good and evil in your hearts. For example, I am such a kind person. Has my goodness not influenced you madmen? Has not my compassion awakened a trace of goodwill in your hearts?
Learn to be kind, my goodness.
I'm sure the Great Shaman still misses you, the sea monster, and even more, she loves you.
The sea monster said, "She is hundreds of years old, even to a werewolf, she can't be old. ”
Oh, please don't underestimate a woman's dedication to love, please don't refuse a woman whose soul is almost withered to regain the nourishment of love, she may be old, but can you discriminate against her because of it? Oh no, let me, the sympathetic friend of women, Longinus, speak words as sweet as honey to comfort her lonely and lonely heart.
I gazed at the Great Shaman with twinkling eyes, and the Great Shaman looked at me indifferently, her eyelids seemed heavy, and I imagined, imagined, imagined how beautiful, how smooth, how worthy of pity her withered body had been.
Great Shaman: "What are you looking at me?" ”
I smiled mildly and said, "Auntie." ”
Kawachi Moriran said, "What? Auntie is also what you can call? She's my ancestor! ”
I said, "Do you remember an old man called a sea monster?" ”
There seemed to be water flowing in the eyes of the great shaman, and she stroked the puppet and said, "What's the matter?" ”
I said, "The soul of the sea monster is in me, and he says he is grateful that you have treated him well." ”
The great shaman snorted and said, "Really? ”
I looked at her with hopeful, affectionate eyes: "Yes, Auntie, it's true, he recognized you, otherwise how would I know about this past?" ”
The Great Shaman said, "I have changed my mind and put him to death immediately." ”
Hey?
Why is this happening?
I was shocked and said urgently: "Auntie, what do you mean by this?" I am your old acquaintance, no, your old acquaintance lives in my soul...."
The Great Shaman said, "You demon, you have devoured the sea monster and made his soul suffer in you, and I will execute you as soon as possible to free the sea monster from that painful realm." ”
The negotiations broke down, and Kawachi smirked and moved his fingers, and the guard, who had tormented me repeatedly, walked towards me with a steel knife in hand, his eyes cold and bone-shattering. He crossed the knife and put it around my neck.
Chuan Chi said: "Sword Saint of the Black Coffin, Ye Geli will be happy to receive your corpse, she said, you must see people in life, and you must see corpses in death." ”
Things inevitably came to this point, and I'm sorry that I did my best.
Kawaike: "Face the wrath of the werewolves. ”
I said, "It's not that I'm facing you, it's that you're facing me." ”
Kawachi said, "Is this the so-called dead duck with a hard mouth?" ”
I said, "I don't need to say any more. ”
A black wolf emerged from my shadow and bit off the head of the guard, and all the werewolves present were amazed as the man's blood gathered in front of me into a small pond.
I cast the Mirage Blade to temporarily restore my broken leg. This Aardman's proud blade is recorded in the book left behind by Master Hersin, and thankfully I have learned it.
The fish bones protrude from my body and hold them in my palms, and if the werewolf vows to my blood, there is no room for negotiation, then I can only taste the werewolf's blood.
