Chapter 306 [He's Human Too]
Leaving that Brokeback Mountain town, everything that happened in the town, the temple inquisitor and the holy knights would naturally report back quickly. But none of this has much to do with Du Wei.
His mind was now full of ways to get out. This Bai Hechou is not only strong and boundless, but more importantly, this person is also very wise, and he is definitely not the kind of fool who can only be arrogant.
Along the way, Du Wei thought in his heart that if he really wanted to come up with a trick to trick this guy, he might be able to do it. It's just that after the other party is fooled, with his strong strength as the backing, he can immediately recapture Du Wei, and when the time comes, he will anger this moody guy, but I am afraid that it will be very bad.
However, along the way, Bai Hechou was quite polite to Du Wei and didn't really treat him as a prisoner. As long as Du Wei doesn't run away, Bai Hechou will never restrict him in other matters. Even occasionally thought about it, and politely said a few words to Du Wei.
Two more days to the west, and in the evening the two of them were walking on the wild road, but they had missed the town where they had been stayingβand Du Wei was not to blame.
The two of them, one is a high witch king, and they may not come down the mountain once in ten years. One was a duke of noble status, and in the past, whenever he went out, his subordinates had to go to the heart of his subordinates, and Du Wei himself took care of these trivial matters, and as a result, the two of them rode on the road in the afternoon, but they both missed the place to stay, until the sun was in the west, and the two suddenly reined in their horses and glanced at each other.
In this one, one big and one small root monster. It seemed that there was a strange tacit understanding suddenly, looking at each other and smiling, Du Wei sighed: "It seems that I am going to sleep in the wilderness tonight, but it's a pity that I didn't bring a tent." β
Bai Hechou said lightly: "That's nothing. I'm on top of a snowy mountain. The water drips into ice, and I sit on top of the snow bees all year round. β
After saying that, the two got off their horses and found a slightly flat place on the roadside field. Just ready to camp.
It's the cold winter season, and the farther you go northwest, the colder it gets. After Du Wei lit the fire, he looked at the dark clouds in the distance and said with a wry smile: "I hope it won't rain tonight." β
Bai Hechou didn't care. He sat down by the fire, flicked the dust off his clothes, and casually touched a thick stick from the side to use as a pillow, and lay down like this.
He is the Witch King. And Dewey is now his captive again. Du Wei did not expect the witch king to have the virtue of "treating his captives well".
He had been tossing on the horse for a day, and his back and legs were already aching, and he felt as if his body was about to fall apart, and his stomach was hungry at the moment. I don't expect this Mr. Bai Hechou Bai to get him anything to eat - along the way. I didn't see him take the initiative to eat anything, could this guy not eat or drink? Wouldn't he become a god?!
Du Wei sighed. I searched the surrounding wasteland for a while - after getting along for the past two days, Du Wei figured out Bai Hechou's temper, this person was really lazy, and seemed to be indifferent to everything, and didn't care. Although Du Wei was his prisoner, he only needed to stay a few hundred meters away from his body. He doesn't care. There was even one time. Du Wei went out to look for something to eat, and walked so far that he couldn't see Bai He's sorrow - at that time, Du Wei was really tempted and wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but as soon as the thought moved, he felt a chill in his back. A fierce murderous aura tightly locked himself! At that time, Du Wei sighed and gave up his thoughts.
At this moment, it is not difficult to find food around.
Speaking of which, after all. It's not the first time that Du Wei has been a prisoner of someone else. In the past, he had captured the white-robed Gandorf and gone to the frozen forests of the northern lands - compared to it, it was much more comfortable to follow this white-robed Gandorf than to follow the white-robed Gandorf in the first place. At least this Mr. Bai Hechou will not use a magic puppet to make himself smack.
Du Wei dug a few groundhog holes in the field, these snakes and rats and the like are hibernating in winter, as long as you can find the location of their holes, it is not difficult to catch them.
A moment later. Du Wei caught two fat ground dogs. Plus a flower snake. And came back. Sit by the fire and disembowel. After peeling the skin and removing the hair, and using the water in the skin to clear the water, he found two branches, and skewered two marmots, and roasted them on the fire. After thinking for a while, Du Wei turned over a cauldron in the storage ring.
This cauldron is not used for camping and barbecue, but a tool used by magic apothecaries to make magic potions, but at this moment, it was used by Du Wei to make a pot of snake soup.
If you want to talk about Du Wei's craftsmanship, although it is not first-class, but after all, he was born in China in his previous life, and Chinese cuisine is world-renowned. In the past, Du Wei was captured by the white-robed Gandalf on the way to the frozen forest, along the way the old guy was full of praise for Du Wei's craftsmanship, at this moment Du Wei's old trick was repeated, a moment later, the fire was full of aroma, the two barbecue marmots were roasted by Du Wei to charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the aroma of barbecued meat mixed with the smell of spices floated to Bai Hechou's nose.
Although Bai Hechou is a witch king on the snowy mountain, he has spent his entire life on how to pursue strength, but he has never even thought about it. Even if it is any meat or vegetables, when you arrive at that kind of place, you will immediately be frozen hard, and where can you talk about any delicious food?
At this moment, Bai Hechou was lying there, but he only felt that the fragrance he smelled was actually tempting that he had never seen in his life, so he couldn't help but sit up, his eyes looked at Du Wei, and his eyes were full of curiosity.
At this moment, the cauldron was burning on the fire for a while, and the soup was boiling out, Du Wei randomly got a branch to peel off the book cover, dipped it in the soup, tasted it, and couldn't help but sigh comfortably.
Looking back and seeing Bai Hechou's curious eyes, Du Wei's heart moved, and he smiled: "Mr. Bai, let's try it together." There are no more than five people in the world who can eat the food made by my Du Wei himself. β
With that, he took off a skewer of roasted groundhogs and handed it over. Bai Hechou is not welcome. I took a bite of it, but it was immediately scalded. He spent most of his life on the snowy mountains, and before he became a witch king, he spent most of his time doing penance on the snow bees. When you are thirsty, you drink a few sips of snow water, and when you are hungry, you stuff a little cold food, and rarely touch any food

When you are thirsty, you drink a few sips of snow water, and when you are hungry, you stuff a little cold food, and rarely touch any food
As soon as you bite into it, you will be a little embarrassed to be burned.
Du Wei saw this peerless strongman. Even if he faced a saint-rank powerhouse, he might not be able to get hurt in the slightest. At this moment, he was almost burned by a skewer of barbecue, and he couldn't help but smile a little. Bai Hechou grabbed the skewer of barbecue, looked at it twice, and thought about it again, probably because he felt that the temperature was too high. Suddenly, he frowned, raised a finger, and lightly scratched the barbecue.
And he heard a sneer. Du Wei's eyes widened. Stunned, he watched Bai Hechou's fingertips shè a wisp of frost fighting qi, and instantly froze the hot barbecue into ice. Bai Hechou didn't care, and opened his mouth to bite. Eating squeaky, but frowning again: "Why is it cold, but it doesn't taste good?"
Du Wei saw it in his eyes, and originally wanted to laugh, but he looked at Bai He in front of him. But he really looked dazed, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in his heart for this supreme powerhouse whose strength was so strong that he was at the level of going against the sky......
This trace of mercy is also a bit absurd, Bai Hechou's strength is not known how many times higher than Du Wei's, where do you want him to be pitiful? It's just that Du Wei looked at Bai Hechou in the face of such a string of barbecue, as if he was a little dazed, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart......
It's really everyone who doesn't know their own hard work! Look at this Bai Hechou's earth-shattering ability. Nearly invincible on the continent...... But is life really fun for people like him?
He is indeed standing at the pinnacle of the power of this world, but the price he has paid is really sighing.
All kinds of fun in life, food, clothing and housing, I'm afraid he has never enjoyed even a little bit of it in his life.
In such a life, even if you have cultivated to the level of being able to defy heaven and earth. What's the point?
Come to think of it. Du Wei couldn't help but sigh. The ridicule of Bai Hechou in his heart also disappeared suddenly, and after smiling. Blowing the skewer of barbecue in his hand, then handed it over, and said with a smile: "Mr. Bai probably hasn't eaten this kind of thing, but this thing can't be used on ice, I'll bake your skewer again, you eat me first, don't ice it with fighting spirit this time, hold it in your hand and wait for a while, when it cools a little, it will naturally be delicious." β
Bai Hechou took the thing handed by Du Wei, turned it in his hand, and shook his head again: "Wait for it to get cold on its own? This thing is so hot now, if it gets cold by itself, it will have to wait for a while." Alas...... I've been practicing hard almost every minute of my life, and for me, eating is a race against time, and when I have something, I just have to stuff it into my stomach and fill it up, so where is there any extra time to wait for it to get cold? If I have to do this every time I eat, I don't know how much time I will lose in my cultivation. β
Du Wei was speechless after hearing this, and after thinking for a while, he said cautiously: "Mr. Bai, in your opinion, is it really happy for you to forget to sleep and eat and blindly live a life of asceticism?"
Bai Hechou listened to this question, but seemed to be silent for a while, and then shook his head and whispered, "I...... I didn't know, and I never thought about it. All I know is that I want to be stronger, and the stronger the better. That's what I'm looking for. β
After speaking, both of them were silent, and the atmosphere fell silent for a while.
After all, in the wilderness, the winter night is still very cold, and in less than a moment, the hot barbecue is slightly cooler, although it is still very hot, but it is not hot. Bai Hechou took a bite and smiled: "You said well, it's really much better to eat like this." β
Du Wei also laughed. At this moment, it seems that the relationship between the two is no longer between captives and captives, but as if they are friends walking together.
After Du Wei handed over a bowl of snake soup, he took a sip and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "It tastes good! β
Du Wei saw that he was drinking sweetly, and he couldn't bear to rob him, and after only drinking a bowl of snake soup, he was half-full, and then he didn't eat it.
After Bai Hechou finished eating, he looked at Du Wei and smiled, and suddenly his tone became very sincere: "This meal is the most comfortable I have eaten in decades." Speaking of which, I want to thank you. β
Du Wei couldn't imagine that this powerful murderer would be so polite to him, and he was stunned for a moment. Bai He said sadly: "I have been sad all my life, and I never want to owe anyone any favor." In this way, if you invite me to eat this delicious meal, I will repay you one or two. Speaking of which. You want me to let you go. That's a no-no. I also told you that that Warcraft pet is of great use to me, and I must not give it up. But other than that, if you have anything to worry about, you might as well let me know, and I can fulfill one of your requests. β
After a pause, he suddenly smiled indifferently: "Do you have any enemies in your life?" Anyway, I have time around me now. I was not busy and immediately went back to the snowy mountain. You tell me. If I had time, I would have killed him for you right away, and it wouldn't be too difficult. β
When he said these two words, there was naturally a taste of contempt in his tone. However, with his strength, he is indeed qualified to say such arrogant words! It can almost be said that he is the first in the world, Du Wei has long thought about the masters he knows, but there is really no one who can be his opponent. Even the Pope in that temple dwells in seclusion. In Du Wei's opinion. At most, it is at the level of Gandoff, so it is probably not Bai Hechou's opponent.
He said he was going to kill someone, and he did what he said.
Du Wei listened. Suddenly, an absurd thought came to my heart: or ...... I asked him to help me slaughter that old dragon? If this peerless strong man encounters that thousand-year-old dragon, it must be a big battle!
It's just that this absurd thought is just a flash. Not to mention that Bai Hechou would be stupid enough to really go to a life-and-death duel with a master of the same level as himself in order to eat Du Wei's meal...... I guess he's not that stupid.
Moreover, Du Wei now knew that the dragon clan was the line of defense against those criminals in the northern part of the sacred mountain. Killing the old dragon is certainly pleasant, but it is not necessarily a good thing.
What's more, from here to the north, through the frozen forest, and then through the forgotten ice fields, to the sacred mountain of the dragon clan, this back and forth, it is absolutely impossible to do it in a few months. And the white river went down the mountain once. But it's only three months, and he just said "if time comes" to help Du Wei kill people. If it were to exceed his time, he would never have willed.
Du Wei's thought flashed for a moment, and he skipped it. looked at Bai Hechou, suddenly his heart moved, and he smiled leisurely: "Mr. Bai." In your opinion. People like me. Is there anything you can't wish for?"
After a pause, Du Wei said slowly: "I am the Duke of the Empire. Holding great power, all respected.
The best. If I like women, as long as I move my eyes at will, hundreds of beautiful women can line up in front of me for me to choose. Life. It's nothing more than food, clothing, and shelter. I enjoyed it carefully. It's not in vain that this life has gone through the world. So, I don't have any special regrets. Splendor. Wine and food, I haven't enjoyed it, and I have tasted the pinnacle of power. I have long been satisfied with such a life. β
Bai Hechou pondered for a while after listening, and he didn't know what the meaning was in his eyes, and looked at Du Wei twice: "What you said is good, you can indeed be satisfied." β
Du Wei's heart moved, and he added, "Mr. Bai, when it comes to status, you are the real master of the grassland, and the king of the grassland will look up to your snort, speaking of which, your status is far higher than mine." It's just a pity that in my opinion, although you are invincible in the world, but in this life, you are far from me. β
Bai He raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh?"
Du Wei was blinded by his eyes, and immediately felt a chill in his heart, gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, if you think I am wrong, I will ask you a few questions, if you can answer them, even if I am wrong, how about it?"
Bai He's sad eyes were even more strange: "You ask, I'll listen." β
Du Wei took a deep breath and raised a finger: "I have a close lover, and I have a heart-to-heart relationship, I know her, she also knows me, whether I am rich or poor, a duke or a commoner, no matter how strong I am, whether I am a famous magician in the mainland, or a grassroots in the sole of someone else's shoes." I know that she always loves me and wants me in her heart. No matter at any time, she will follow me and accompany me! Such feelings, such a confidant lover, Mr. Bai. Have you ever tasted it?"
Bai Hechou was silent for a while, and shook his head: "No." β
Du Wei nodded and raised his second finger: "I was born in a wealthy family, and I have had a father who has high expectations for me since I was a child. Treat me to a merciful and loving mother. There are even younger brothers who regard me as idols. When I was young, I had a serious illness, and my mother was for me. On rainy nights, he knelt in front of the idol and prayed for me all night, and then he stayed up and took care of my daily life! Really dependent on me, extremely attached to me. Brotherly affection is good!--Mr. Bai, such a taste of family affection. Have you tasted it?"
Du Wei sighed and raised his third finger: "I have a good friend who has made a good friend, and he has outstanding strength." But we come and go. Trust each other in your hearts, even if one day. I can hand over my life to the other party without hesitation! I know his ideals! Such a taste of friendship, may I ask Mr. Bai, have you ever tasted it?"
Bai Hechou was silent for a longer time this time, and finally shook his head: "No." β
Du Wei smiled. He raised a fourth finger: "I have faithful subordinates." I know that they love me, respect me, regard me as heaven, and respect me, but not only because of that iron law! Even though one day I will no longer be a duke, no longer a person in this position of power. They also respect me in their hearts! Such faithful disciples and subordinates...... Mr. Bai, do you have one?"
Bai Hechou suddenly smiled. Shaking his head, he said: "No! Although I have a high status on the snowy mountain, I know that there are people on the snowy mountain now." Most of them are in awe of my ability and genuinely respect our people, but there may not be half of them. Back then, I took away the position of the Witch King by thunderous means, and I was also respected for my strength. If I lose this ability one day, I'm afraid no one will follow me anymore. Du Wei had to go on and say something. The smile on Bai He's sad face became more and more strange, and a pair of eyes looked at Du Wei coldly. Suddenly, he said, "Duke Tulip." DID YOU KNOW. These questions were actually many years ago. I've been asked something similar!"
Du Wei's heart suddenly burst into a smile, and he reluctantly smiled: "Oh?"
Bai Hechou nodded, his eyes finally let go of Du Wei, and drifted into the distance, a hint of the past flashed in his eyes. Youyou said: "Back then, it was on the snowy mountain. I caught up with Lan Haiyue and Chishui when the land was broken. I was about to kill them. Lan Haiyue suddenly asked me a few questions, probably similar to what you said today. Hum...... Lan Haiyue is indeed extremely smart. I am also very scheming, and I know that the two of them are not my opponents, but they vainly try to shake my mind with such words! It's just that what kind of person am I, Bai Hechou, how can I be shaken by such a few simple words......?
His head turned to Du Wei and sneered: "Du Wei, you said these words to me with the same intention as Lan Haiyue at the beginning, right? Back then, Lan Haiyue was clever and wanted to use this trick to shake me, but instead he made me angry and murderous to him! I'm not very good, even if I will regret it afterwards, but if you really angered me at the time, I will kill you first. Got it?"
Du Wei smiled bitterly: "Okay, I won't say it." β
Bai Hechou smiled faintly, rolled up his sleeves, and brought a flame of air, shΓ¨ towards the fire in the middle, suddenly the flame rose, and the temperature was much warmer, but he lay down on the ground: "Okay, don't say anything more, go to sleep! When you rush tomorrow, if you say that you don't have the strength, don't blame me for being unkind." β
Du Wei sat there, even more helpless in his heart. He also had to secretly scold himself for being stupid, what kind of corner is this Bai He Chou, if it is really his own words that can shake his mind, he will not be Bai He Chou!!
In despair, I lay down and slept in my clothes.
In the middle of the night, suddenly the dark clouds were rolling in the sky, and the wind was blowing, Du Wei turned over and sat up, looked at the sky, and said with a wry smile: "I really am a crow's mouth, I hope it will not rain, but it will rain!"
Suddenly, I saw Bai Hechou turn over, glanced at Du Wei, closed his eyelids again, and said coldly: "Ignorant boy, it's not going to rain this day, it's going to snow." I live on the snowy mountains all year round, and I know the signs of snow all day long. β
Du Wei smiled bitterly: "You are still in a good mood to lie down, no matter whether it rains or snows, we can't spend the night in this place, let's get up quickly...... I see a mountain in front of me, so I might be able to find a cave to spend the night. β
Bai Hechou smiled: "You just sleep, it's okay." β
That's what he said. Du Wei had no choice but to lie down, but after a while, he felt a cold wind coming, and then snowflakes fell on the sky.
The snow fell and cooled a lot. Although Du Wei was a magician, his jΔ«ng divine power body was not yet strong enough to be perverted, so he couldn't help but feel a little cold and shivered. Standing up, he pulled out a set of magician's robes from the storage ring and draped them over his body.
But after waiting for a while, he suddenly opened his mouth wide, looked at the sky, and couldn't help but be stunned!
It turned out that the snowflakes were falling. Looking at the past, the sky was full of snow, but it was the place where he and Bai He were lying sadly. A radius of 100 meters, above the head. But there was a faint golden light shrouded in the top of his head, regardless of the wind and snow, but not a single snowflake could fall!
Du Wei knew that it was Bai He who was doing the tricks, and he couldn't help but sigh...... This kind of spell is used as an umbrella. It's not impossible for Du Wei to do it...... But it's an ordinary strongman. What's the matter. He wouldn't spend mana to do such a boring thing, and only a perverted guy like Bai Hechou, who was so strong that he was at the level of going against the sky, would waste this mana to do this kind of thing.
He didn't know that Bai Hechou had cultivated on the snowy mountains all his life, often sitting in the open air and cultivating, and he had always been like this all the time, but he refused to move the place. And so penance. But on the contrary, it can promote human potential even more!
After dawn, after a night of wind and snow, the wasteland was already silvery
The branches of the tree were covered with silver edges. Du Wei stood in the snow and jumped after dawn, after a night of snowstorm, the wasteland was already silvery
The branches of the tree were covered with silver edges. Du Wei stood in the snow and jumped a few times. Hands and feet. It's just that I didn't sleep well all night and even ran around, so I was really a little tired. do
As soon as my heart moved, I simply went to the snow, took off my coat, and followed that, set strange movements, and did it honestly.
The basic movements of this starry sky fighting spirit are really magical. After doing it for a while, my whole body was refreshed, and the heat in my body came up. Suddenly, jΔ«ng was refreshed. The soreness in his body was also swept away.
Bai Hechou had already gotten up, and when he saw Du Wei's movements at first, he was just indifferent and did not interfere, but when Du Wei finished doing one set of actions twice, a trace of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh.
Picked up a snow ball casually, pointed it at Du Wei, and bounced it on his knee, and Du Wei stumbled as soon as his leg stumbled. When he raised his head, Bai Hechou had already walked in front of him.
Where did you learn this move?!!
When he asked this, his expression seemed cold and calm, but there was a faint excitement in his eyes that could not be concealed.
