Chapter Seventy-One: Conflict
Chapter 71: Conflict
Since Bai Ke didn't plan to challenge Buwanga, there was no need for the Bantu to come into contact. After all, he came here to do asceticism, not to make friends. What's more, identity has always been a big problem for him, but black households have no human rights. Thinking so, he found a canyon along the foot of the snow-capped mountain, and followed this canyon into the 10,000-year-old snow-capped mountain.
The area of the 10,000-year-old Snow Mountain is very vast, almost no less than a small country. However, this is the territory of the Bantu people, and it is difficult not to come into contact with them. Soon after Bai Ke walked into the canyon, he saw a Bantu village. The Snow Valley is one of the few places suitable for human survival in the 10,000-year-old Snow Mountain area, where there are rare plains, rivers, grasslands and even forests in the Snow Mountains, which are extremely suitable for the survival of humans and animals, so almost every large Snow Mountain Canyon is a settlement of the Bantu people.
Bai Ke looked at the village in front of him from afar, hesitating to go in and communicate with the locals. But he quickly dispelled this idea, he had come to do asceticism, and if he had contact with others, or even dependence, then the effect of asceticism would have been greatly reduced. The so-called asceticism is to push oneself into a desperate situation, and only in a desperate situation can the potential be stimulated and the breakthrough can be made.
Thinking like this, Bai Ke started to climb the mountain directly from the gentler slope next to him, and he wanted to bypass the area in front of him. However, when he climbed to the top of the mountain, he found that there was a Bantu patrol here. The two Bantu patrolmen were stunned at first when they saw Bai Ke, and then they let out an angry roar and rushed towards him, as if they were going to attack him.
One of them rushed forward and waved his hand at Bai Ke's chest, Bai Ke reached out and lightly blocked his attack, and then pushed forward with the other hand and pressed it on his chest, pushing him backwards and falling to the snow.
His companion was startled when he saw this, and he also pounced, and directly hit Bai Ke with a left hook to the right cheek. Bai Ke frowned, tilting his head slightly to avoid his attack. The Bantu warrior suddenly flew up and kicked Bai Ke in the chest and abdomen. Seeing this, Bai Ke exhaled violently, and the air flow condensed into frost and mist rushed straight to the opposite door, and at the same time, the entire chest cavity also shrank back by half a foot, avoiding kicking. The opponent kicked into the air, and his vision was obscured by the frost and fog, and his body immediately lost his balance and stumbled forward. Bai Ke took the opportunity to kick out and kick him on the calf where he was standing, and the warrior immediately flew out with his entire body floating in the air and plunged headlong into the snow.
Bai Ke no longer paid attention to this person, turned around and reached out to grab the neck of the Bantu warrior who attacked him first, lifted him up, and asked, "Who are you?" Why are you attacking me? ”
"Outsider, you have entered the territory of the Bantu people. Get out of here, or you'll be hunted down by our entire Bantu tribe!" The warrior blushed and yelled angrily at Bai Ke.
Bai Ke was a little surprised that this Bantu tribe was so xenophobic, and he couldn't help asking, "Oh, are the Bantu people so domineering?" Are you going to kill everyone who enters the Ten Thousand Years Snow Mountain? Your patriarch Buwanga probably won't allow it! ”
Hearing Bai Ke mention Buwanga's name, the warrior suddenly said with a fanatical expression: "Since you already know the name of our patriarch, why don't you retreat quickly?" Our patriarch is a world-famous sword master, and the territory and glory of the Bantu clan cannot be violated. ”
Bai Ke frowned when he heard this, how could this person look like a fanatical fan when he heard Buwanga's name? It seems to be more difficult to communicate now. He spoke again, "I know Buwanga, he is one of the famous Four Sword Saints. I'm a martial artist myself, and I used to want to challenge Buwanga. ”
"Huh? Hahaha...... Aha...... "The warrior seemed to have heard something very funny, and kept laughing, not caring about his situation in the slightest.
Bai Ke was angry, and said in his heart that I can't beat Buwanga, but it doesn't mean that I can't deal with you, and your posture is too blind. Thinking of this, his hand shook with force, and the warrior who was choked by his neck suddenly felt a strong force vibrate all over his body, and immediately became weak, and his breath in his mouth and nose was also diverted, and he suddenly coughed violently, and he could no longer laugh.
The warrior who stuck his head in the snow just now had already climbed up, and he also heard Bai Ke's words, and at this time, he saw his companion being tossed by Bai Ke for a while, and he was immediately shocked and angry. He opened his mouth and said, "Hmph, you stranger is really not afraid of death! How powerful our patriarch is, his name is spread throughout Arad. Even if you want to challenge our patriarch with your strength, aren't you looking for death? ”
"This ...... I'm just saying I wanted to challenge him...... Haven't I challenged him yet! Bai Ke said with some embarrassment, and the movements of his hands stopped.
"Humph! Stranger, I don't care what you are doing in the Ten Thousand Years Snow Mountain, now hurry up. Snow Mountain doesn't welcome you! "Caught by Bai Ke
As soon as the warrior in his hand regained the ability to speak, he opened his mouth again to drive people away.
"Hey, hey! Can you be polite, don't you know that you are still in my hands? Bai Ke was a little helpless, he doubted whether this guy had a brain.
"So what? We Bantu people are warriors and are never afraid of death! I will never give in to you! The warrior shouted indignantly.
"......" Bai Ke was a little puzzled, what happened to this person, why couldn't he listen to people?
Seeing that the other party couldn't deliver words, Bai Ke couldn't help but be angry, he threw the Bantu warrior in his hand to the ground fiercely, and then strode towards the other person. The other party looked a little nervous when he saw Bai Ke walking towards him, and suddenly he gritted his teeth and jumped directly down the slope from the top of the mountain.
Bai Ke was in a hurry, and hurriedly reached out to grab him, but he was empty. He looked intently and saw that the warrior had actually slid down the snow all the way to the bottom of the mountain, and then the other party slapped his buttocks, looking like he was fine.
Bai Ke couldn't help but marvel in his heart, this person was too fierce, he dared to jump off the cliff without saying a word.
In fact, these two Bantu warriors acted rudely towards outsiders, pushing themselves and others, and they thought that once they fell into the hands of Bai Ke, they would never end well. Therefore, they would rather escape by jumping off a cliff, anyway, they live on the snowy mountains all year round, and they still have a lot of experience in how to avoid damage in cliff jumping.
Bai Ke looked back at the warrior he threw to the ground, the softness of the snow absorbed the kinetic energy of his landing, so he was not too seriously injured. By this time the warrior had already gotten up and ran away.
Bai Ke: "......" Is this the so-called saying the most ruthless words and doing the most cowardly things?
In any case, Bai Ke has completely formed a bond with the Bantu clan. However, his goal was only to enter the mountains to cultivate, and it didn't matter much.
Driving away the two Bantu warriors, Bai Ke no longer delayed, he strode into the wind and snow, and slowly disappeared into the depths of the snowy mountain.
Soon after, the Bantu tribe sent a team of warriors to this ice cliff to search for Bai Ke, but due to the heavy wind and snow, Bai Ke had already left, and they finally found nothing, so they had no choice but to give up. The 10,000-year-old Snow Mountain is too big, the land here is vast and sparsely populated, once the trace of Bai Ke cannot be found, then even the Bantu tribe has no choice but to let him stay here.
In fact, there are still many professionals in the snow-capped mountains who dive here. Although the Bantu people reject outsiders, as long as you have the strength and do not interfere too much in the affairs of their clan, they still do not want to offend. Bai Ke's arrival was just a new addition to these cultivators.
Bai Ke wandered in the 10,000-year-old snow-capped mountains like this, eating ice and snow when he was thirsty, and eating the dry food he brought when he was hungry. Occasionally, he would see some animals that were special to the snow-capped mountains, and he would go hunting and catch them for food. It's a pity that there are few resources on the snowy mountains, there are not many animals, and most of them are very vigilant and extremely difficult to catch, so that Bai Ke is gradually starting to starve.
Bai Ke knew that starvation was also an element of austerity, so he didn't care. As the saying goes, "starve its body, empty its body, and act chaotically, so it is tempting to endure and benefit what it can't", and this is the pursuit of Bai Ke's trip.
After going around the snowy mountains for more than ten days, Bai Ke has almost become a wild man now, with messy hair and tattered clothes. He also had a short beard under his chin, and his hair, eyebrows, and beard were covered with frost, completely obscuring his face.
During this time, Bai Ke was sometimes so hungry that he couldn't stand it, so he could only grab any animal or plant he saw on the snowy mountains and rub it, stuff it into his mouth, chew and swallow it, regardless of whether these things could be eaten or not. Fortunately, his digestion ability is strong enough, and his poison resistance is high enough, otherwise he would have died on the snowy mountain due to food poisoning.
In fact, Bai Ke now has no idea where he is, he is lost in the snowy mountains! There are snowflakes all year round, visibility is not high, the temperature is extremely cold, the ground is full of snow and ice, and there are no road signs at all. Visibility is low when it snows, and you can't see the road; When the snow stops, the sun on the snow can cause severe reflections, and you still can't see the road. Bai Ke could only stumble along with his feelings until he finally got lost.
