Volume 2 Embarking on the Journey of Life Chapter 25 Commitment
Bai Feng knew his temperament very well. Once you grow up in a greenhouse, you will definitely not want to make progress. His dream is very small, just not to be bullied by others, and to be able to live happily through his life.
Once you are sheltered by the strong, you can get this kind of life in an instant.
But can it last?
Once you have no use value, will you be kicked away, and will the end be miserable. At that moment, Bai Feng thought a lot. It was only at this moment that he realized that he was so far-sighted.
To be a man, you always have to rely on yourself. What is it to have a backer? Wouldn't it be even more awesome if you are a backer? If you only think about relying on others, you have already lost the heart of a strong man.
Therefore, Bai Feng did not hesitate too much, and resolutely rejected them.
Hearing Bai Feng's resolute refusal, Xuanyuan Yu frowned, as if he was thinking about something. And Xuanyuan Xue's lips opened slightly, as if she wanted to say something.
Since Bai Feng has already decided, he will not change it. He stretched out his hand very resolutely, signaling that Xuanyuan Xue didn't need to say any more.
Bai Feng stood up awkwardly and said, "Since it's for this matter, I won't stay longer." Needless to say, I will take my leave. ”
Xuanyuan Xue also stood up, grabbed Bai Feng's sleeve, and said, "Don't you want to know how my brother met you in the wasteland? Don't you want to know our identity? You don't have to be in such a hurry, we can sit down and talk slowly." Even if we can't talk about that, we can still be friends, can't we?"
Xuanyuan Xue showed that noble and elegant smile again, and that affinity made Bai Feng no longer insist on leaving, and sat down slowly.
Bai Feng suddenly, his eyes were like electricity, he looked directly at Xuanyuan Yu, and asked, "Why were you in the wasteland that night?"
Xuanyuan Yu didn't react, he also looked directly at Bai Feng, and said coldly word by word: "That's my second home." ”
Bai Feng was puzzled in his heart, but he reluctantly accepted this explanation.
For the time being, the two brothers really only have the intention of soliciting him. Moreover, Bai Feng could also conclude that the concealment of the spirit ring must be very good, and it was definitely not something that people in this great wilderness could discover. He also didn't believe that Xuanyuan Yu had the ability to discover the spirit ring.
Maybe it's really like he said, he has the fortune of the dragon and tiger, so he noticed it. Besides, what Xuanyuan Yu said had some similarities with what the ring spirit said, and he was not lying to him.
This kind of matter related to his life and death, Bai Feng naturally has to take it step by step and be extremely cautious. I can't help but wonder about everyone's motives, so as to ensure my own safety.
When he was robbed by the Cloud City Chamber of Commerce, Bai Feng was much more careful. Danger is everywhere, not to mention the sin of conceiving a spiritual vow, which even the closest people cannot tell. The more people who know, the more danger of exposure. It's not about trust, sometimes it's involuntary.
The atmosphere in the room was awkward again. Bai Feng was still staring directly at Xuanyuan Yu, but he was thinking about the problem, and his eyes were not focused. And Xuanyuan Yu picked up the teacup and drank it with his head down, no one knew that he was trying to sell it. And Xuanyuan Xue looked left and right, observing the faces of the two.
Wang Dashun is the simplest, looking at the nose and the nose and the heart. Just sit and close your eyes and recuperate, and hang up on your own business! Anyway, you don't need to talk about yourself now, so it's better to take a break and think about your own cultivation methods.
Sitting down calmly like this, Wang Dashun has not experienced it for a long time. When he was cultivating alone, as soon as he closed his eyes, he thought of his wife and daughter······
Bai Feng picked up the teacup, took a sip, and put it down gently. Pretended to sigh and said, "Since Brother Yu and Brother Xue don't have anything else important, then the little brother won't bother." See you soon. ”
So saying, he got up again and left.
Without waiting for him to stand up, Xuanyuan Yu no longer only cared about drinking tea. He put down his teacup and began to get a little serious, the air around him seemed to condense, and nothing made a sound.
Xuanyuan Yu glanced at Xuanyuan Xue before saying to Bai Feng, "I need your help." ”
Bai Feng was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Xuanyuan Yu's original solicitation would instantly turn into a request for help. Especially if he is not strong and has no other talents, what does he have to look up to? What can he do to help him?
Xuanyuan Yu obviously understood the disbelief in Bai Feng's eyes, and explained: "Naturally, we don't need you to help us now, but we need you to do something for us in the future." That said, we need a commitment from you!"
Bai Feng shook his head and promised, This kind of thing is too precious, it is not good to say what things will happen in the future, and it is impossible to say what position there is or what special reason there is. Casual promises now will turn into lies when the time comes.
"No, my promise, you can't buy it. If you can buy it, then is there still value in this promise?" Bai Feng asked lightly.
Xuanyuan Yu frowned and said, "What you said is right, if you agree so easily, it just proves that you are not a trustworthy person." But I do need your help. You will definitely be able to help me in the future. ”
Xuanyuan Yu sighed, seemed to be struggling, and stopped talking, but still spoke: "I, I am one of the princes of the Great Xia Dynasty. Half a year ago, my elder brother, who is also the current crown prince, died tragically in the palace. Today, there are only five princes vying for the crown prince, including me. This position, if you don't fight, you will die!"
"And I, the youngest prince, am the youngest. Not to mention the weakness, the foundation is also insufficient. I learned the art of dragon observation and was able to see a person's luck. So, I want to recruit you and become my team. ”
He sighed again, frowned, and said, "It's hard to compete for the crown prince. At every turn, life and death are everywhere, and blood flows like rivers at every turn. I wanted to give up, but my father said that if I gave up, I would lose everything, including my family. Even anyone who has anything to do with me, will die! I have to compete with them, I can't help it. ”
"I know it's dangerous! But in the midst of danger, it brings wealth and opportunity. Failure is the way of life and death, and success can lead to prosperity and wealth. If you agree, you will become my first team, that is, my brothers who live and die together, and I will never treat you badly. You can mention any conditions!"
Bai Feng understands Xuanyuan Yu's hardships, but it doesn't mean that Bai Feng will sympathize with him! Born in the emperor's family, they can have enough food and clothing, but at the same time, what they are facing is that their brothers harm themselves and kill each other. This is the price! Their story may be tragic, but they don't deserve pity. This is a road, and there is a providence in the dark!
He didn't hesitate to refuse. His goal is not to be a dignitary, rich in clothes and food. What's more, he also knows the danger of the emperor's house, the birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden, these things are not unique.
But the voice of the ring spirit came to his mind: "Master, promise him! Fate is like this, you can't hide from it." Since you can't hide, let's face it strongly! What's more, you still have me. You don't have to think about the rest, strength is the foundation of everything!"
Bai Feng was a little hesitant, he now believed very much what the ring spirit said.
In the dark, is there really fate guiding him? It is also a feeling of being controlled, which makes Bai Feng very unhappy.
But what the ring spirit said is not unreasonable, now he is just an ant-sized thing, and in the battle of the strong, maybe it will not be able to affect it lightly. What's more, I can't get rid of the mercy of fate now, and I really have to think about explaining the arrangement of fate.
When you are ready to get rid of the big hand of fate!
In Xuanyuan Yu's eyes, Bai Feng was already thinking. He was calm, and he didn't bother Bai Feng, picked up the teacup and began to sip it.
Xuanyuan Xue on the side was also tense in her heart. This is indeed my brother's first team, and if I can't recruit him, then my brother's disadvantage will become bigger and bigger. It doesn't matter if you are affected, the important thing is that everyone under this branch will not escape the poison.
On his handsome and elegant face, I finally saw a hint of anxiety. This anxiety is usually hidden in the bottom of my heart, but at this critical moment, it is revealed.
Finally, Bai Feng decided, since he couldn't hide, then come.
"I promise you!"
Xuanyuan Yu originally had a cold face, but now he couldn't help but show a smile. Xuanyuan Xue is the same, the elegant smile of the ancient well without waves, but now she is also smiling!
Bai Feng changed his words and said, "Don't be happy yet. I have a request. ”
Xuanyuan Yu restrained his smile slightly, but the melancholy between his eyebrows dissolved at this moment, he looked into Bai Feng's eyes and nodded to him.
"First, I'm not your subordinate! I can refuse your orders if necessary. ”
Xuanyuan Yu nodded, this request is indeed not too much. The first temptation was to recruit Bai Feng to become his subordinate. The second time he asked for help, Bai Feng naturally would not be a subordinate.
"Second, you are responsible for all my cultivation resources! Of course, within your financial range. By the way, I forgot to tell you, I'm a second-level alchemist now!, so I won't embarrass you. ”
Xuanyuan Yu was overjoyed, he really didn't expect that Bai Feng was actually a second-level alchemist. It was a bonus!
In the Great Xia Dynasty, there were very few alchemists. High-level alchemists are even rarer, so to speak, and can be counted with one hand. And he, a prince, was able to recruit a second-level alchemist, and he was such a young alchemist as Bai Feng, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he had taken a shit luck.
Bai Feng naturally saw the uncontrollable joy on his face, not only secretly proud in his heart. Hehe, my fainting penance is really not in vain!
Bai Feng coughed, and said with a straight face: "The third condition, if I think that my life is threatened at some moment, I will withdraw immediately, you can't stop it." ”
Xuanyuan Yu still nodded, no objection. For Bai Feng, he didn't dare to exert force. After all, there may be a high-level alchemist behind him, and even, a force that he doesn't even know about. If you can't buy and sell, you must not cross the line!
Bai Feng continued to say to Xuanyuan Yu: "It's gone. If there is anything more I would ask for, I will ask again!"
Xuanyuan Yu nodded slightly, after all, Bai Feng was a second-level alchemist, and this surprise had already made his mind a little dizzy. Although as a prince, he has never seen anyone, but he has seen and recruited, and the two are completely different.
All in all, being able to keep Bai Feng is a big project.
He believes that people with that kind of dragon and tiger aura will definitely play a role in turning things around.
That way, he can protect the people around him.
But to the body refiner, he is like a priceless treasure and half precious. This three-grade elixir, if soaked and used, the medicinal effect is ordinary, and the scope of application is extremely small. But when taken directly, its medicinal effect is close to that of the four-grade elixir, which can be regarded as the peak of the three-grade, but the scope of application is even smaller. At least in this Cloud City, there is no one who meets the conditions to be able to eat it directly. Neither can the strong in the elixir realm!
Presently the young lady trotted over, still holding a small ring in her hand.
