Chapter 267 [Blame Again]
In the evening, Hanmuye sat in his tent and pondered the day's negotiations, and his heart became more and more uncertain about the tulip duke. Originally, he was deeply jealous of this guy in his heart, but now it seems that it is not too difficult to deal with.
War horses, cattle and sheep and other things are the most abundant on the grassland, and it costs some money to come, and it is also mentally prepared before this time. He was the uncle of the King of the Prairie and a figure in the inner circle of the royal court. Naturally, he understood the royal court's strategy towards the Roland Empire. In the long run, sooner or later, the steppes will go to war with this vast empire. The war more than 20 years ago caused too much blood to be shed by the steppe people. Such hatred cannot be erased over time.
Although this huge empire seems to be powerful, to the relief of the steppe people, this behemoth seems to be powerful, but in fact, after careful study, it is not difficult to see that it is strong on the outside. Although the Roland Empire claims to have 2 million troops, several main battle legions of the empire 1 million, local garrisons 1 million in various places, and a powerful naval fleet. At the same time, those noble lords in the empire also have private armies.
But for more than ten years, he has devoted himself to the study of the Roland people, and he has also seen the weaknesses of the Roland people very thoroughly. The emperor of the empire was gradually fainting, and the overjoyed Augustine VI had wasted the last vestiges of the empire on the South Seas. And the huge army also brought huge military expenditures, ridiculously the South Sea Expedition. Instead of bringing benefits to the Empire, it has become a huge black hole that devours the Empire's finances. The Emperor of the Faint Land, a group of greedy nobles. ** The bureaucratic system that makes this behemoth. It's like a big tree in the dry ground...... Push it down. Just be patient!
And the Northwest Army and the Imperial Zhōngyāng landform are inseparable. There are also those around that seem to be smooth. Actually, secretly stupid yù moved the noble lords - actually. It has become a kind of earth emperor. A huge empire. Seemingly powerful. In fact, there are many internal troubles.
As for the awe-inspiring naval fleet...... Hum. No matter how strong the navy is, can it drive to the land! Can it drive to the grassland? Joke!
Today's peace talks, although a lot of contributions. However, if it can be exchanged for temporary peace with the Empire. It doesn't have to be too old. Up to five years. Minimum of three years. Wait for the young children on the steppe to grow up chéngrén. When those wolf cubs can already show their teeth and claws. It's time to tear down this big tree!
Compared with this purpose, temporarily send some horses, cattle and sheep. And what's it?
This tulip duke...... Hmph, it doesn't seem to be that way. I thought he was smart. It turned out to be a greedy person. 10,000 cowhides. Add a few thousand slaves and you will buy him.
Merely. It is necessary for the grassland people to take the initiative to seek peace. Under this condition, Hanmuye still bit his bite and did not let go. Although he understood. The empire needs this "face", after all, a magnificent empire. If you take the initiative to make peace with the people of the small steppe. That would be a shame. But. Hanmuye still wanted to bite this condition to the death. Let's test the bottom line of the Roland people.
Just as he was thinking. Suddenly, I heard a faint shout from my guard outside: "What person!!"
Then I heard a muffled snort!
Although Hanmuye is not good at martial arts, he is also used to seeing Bo killing people on the grassland. Listen to it. He judged that someone was taking advantage of the night to sneak attack, and his guard let out that short muffled snort. Most of them were knocked down.
He was shocked. The first thought that crossed my mind was: Is this Duke Tulip going to kill me?
The thought was fleeting, and the curtain of the tent had been lifted. Two shadows stood faintly outside the tent. Hanmuye took a look. I can't help but change my face!
Under the moonlight. Outside the tent stood two figures, one tall and one short. It's not far. Faintly you can see that it seems to be a man and a woman. And the dress of these two people is what makes Hanmuye sère!
The two guards who had been guarding the outside of the tent had fallen to the ground. Movement was heard around. The warriors of the steppe who had been keeping vigil had long been around. It's just that these samurai all looked at these two people dumbfounded. The ground-based scimitar had already been drawn halfway, but it honestly put it back and stood quietly around. Neither is it. Neither is it a retreat.
Just because, these two visitors. One of the women. whispered in the local language of the grassland: "When people come from the snowy mountains, they are all silent!"
But all the people on the grassland. What a lofty position the Great Snow Mountain holds in their hearts. And the wizards on the snowy mountains walked on the grassland, benefiting countless people, and everyone knew how to dress up.
This man and a woman in front of him. That's all there is to this woman. A gray robe. Apparently dressed up as a wizard of the Great Snow Mountains - on the grassland. Few people wear robes in the fields, and the herdsmen on the grasslands work in order to work in peace. It's all narrow clothes and narrow sleeves. This loose robe is very eye-catching.
Especially this witch. There are also a few rusty marks on the robe, take a look. It is clearly a symbol of the snowy mountains!
There are also witches on the snowy mountains, and there are also women. It's just that there are not many women who go down to the mountain wizards.
What surprised these people even more was that the person standing half a step behind this witch was also dressed as a wizard, and he was actually ......
White robe!
The white-robed wizard is a noble person on the top of the Great Snow Mountain, and everyone on the grassland knows the status of the white-robed wizard! Seeing that such a white-robed wizard suddenly came here quietly late at night, who would dare to make a noise? Some people didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere, and stood with their hands down in the most honest posture, and they didn't even dare to look at these two wizards. and the one who drew his sword just now, regretting his rude behavior just now, hoping not to anger these two noble wizards.
"It's all silent. ”
The whispered words of this witch made everyone's hearts tremble. Han Muye's face also changed, and after being surprised, he quickly looked around, and then bowed respectfully, and said in a low voice: "It turns out that the Venerable Guest on the Snow Mountain has arrived! Excuse me......"
"Talk in the tent, don't show the wind. ”
Although Eludi's voice was a little more immature, Hanmuye couldn't help but wonder how the witch sounded so young. And Ai Lu can't see clearly with a veil on her face. However, this is also a custom on the grassland, where the wind is strong, and it is common to wear a veil on the face.
And the white-robed wizard in the back is definitely an important person he doesn't dare to neglect! The white-robed wizard, even when he arrives at the royal court, the king of the grassland sees him, he has to be polite!
Du Wei also covered his face, only revealing a pair of eyes, he was afraid that this Han Muye would see the flaws, and deliberately made a little trick. Use dough and dye to change the contours of your face and eyes, and then wear the mask. I can't even see it. Especially at night, the other party does not dare to look at himself rudely. It shouldn't be difficult to get past it.
Han Muye's heart was cold, there was a mysterious arrival of a wizard in the middle of the night, only to say that there must be something on the snowy mountain to come down, he did not dare to slack off, and quickly whispered to order the other grassland warriors to carefully guard the surroundings, and then quickly bowed down and led the two into the tent.
"No sitting. "In the tent. Hanmuye was just about to serve tea with his own hands. Alley had already interrupted him, "Prince Hanmuye, please take the witch king's decree." ”
Hanmuye really changed sè. The god was awe-inspiring, and honestly knelt on one knee with the most noble etiquette on the prairie.
The witch king said, "It is not good to delay it for long." As for Duke Tulip's land conditions, if you can agree to it, you will try to meet it as much as possible, and you must not offend him!
Belch?
After hearing Ailu's words, Hanmuye couldn't help but be stunned, and several thoughts instantly turned in his mind, the Witch King's decree is rarely given, and this time it is such an inexplicable will, which can't help but be incomprehensible. He also faintly had some doubts in his heart, but after all, the status of the Great Snow Mountain was too lofty, and he didn't suspect that these two wizards were fake for a while.
"Wizard Lord...... The meaning of the witch king's decree ...... "Hanmuye did not dare to get up, but raised his head and said tentatively.
Ai Lu was silent for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "That's what the Witch King said, and you can do the rest yourself." ”
Hanmuye's heart became more and more suspicious, and suddenly, a faint thought finally appeared in his mind, although he didn't dare to doubt it, but he still tentatively said: "Excuse me, what ......are the names of the two wizards?"
"My name is Elulina, and you probably haven't heard my name. But you've probably heard of it. ”
Of course he knew that the Preparatory Room was a special place on the snowy mountain, and its status was hidden as the head of the three, and this sorceress could say this, it must be true!
"The Witch King is my teacher, and this time I was ordered to come down the mountain just to deal with the Roland people. Well......
Ai Lu paused for a moment, and then said, "The teacher is worried that the magicians here in Roland will be difficult, and he is afraid that I will not be able to deal with it alone, so he asked this white-robed mage to escort me all the way." “
Disciple of the Witch King?
Han Muye only felt a cold sweat on his forehead! Fortunately, he didn't say anything disrespectful just now, otherwise, he would have offended the disciple of the Witch King, and if the other party blamed him, even the King of the Prairie would be able to protect himself!
He didn't dare to look at this witch, he only felt that in the face of the disciple of the witch king, if he raised his eyes to look at the other party carefully, it would be disrespectful, and turned his head to look at Du Wei: "I don't know who this white-robed wizard is......"
Fortunately, Du Wei had already prepared and asked Ai Lu to memorize his lines, and when Ai Lu heard this, he immediately said: "The white-robed mage died in Gilliat City with his fangs, and the Witch King is very dissatisfied. The one who came with me is the junior brother of Mr. Vulture Wizard, who is also a veteran figure in the preparation room, with boundless mana, and this time I came to the northwest to rely on his help all the way. ”
"Yes, yes, yes, it turned out to be the patriarch of the preparation room!" Han Muye nodded repeatedly, but did not dare to ask Du Wei's name again.
Du Wei stood with his hands in his hands, looking away with his face held high. He can't speak the language of the grassland, so he can only pretend to be dumb all the time, and make a proud appearance, but there is no flaw.
Then Hanmuye pondered for a while, and then said, "If you don't know the decree of the Witch King, you must not offend Duke Tulip...... So ......"
"Hmph!" Ai Lu deliberately said angrily, "Han Muye, my teacher's decree, do you dare to doubt it?"
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Hanmuye hung his head again and again, like a chicken pecking rice, but his face was bitter: "The conditions offered by the Roland people are very harsh......"
"Hanmuye. Ai Lu shouted in a deep voice: "You also know that my teacher lost an extremely important pet after the decree of the Witch King! Most of them are in the hands of this Tulip Duke! That pet is related to my teacher's mana cultivation, which is not trivial! If he angers this Tulip Duke, he will kill that pet in a fit of rage...... Hmph, my teacher's pet, heaven and earth, just such one, if it's gone, are you responsible for finding another one for me!"
Hanmuye was even more scared in his heart!
Obediently! Witch King Bai He is worried about his mana, what kind of status is it on the grassland! It is close to the existence of a god! It is related to the mana cultivation of this god of the grassland. Is it any wonder that the Witch King is furious and has issued a decree?
Naturally, Hanmuye also knew that he had sent people to infiltrate the province of Dessa. That is, to find the lost pet for the Witch King, so that. The messenger's statement is true!
For the sake of that pet, the Witch King, who rarely gives a decree, can directly order the Prairie King to send troops, so although this order is strange now, it is nothing.
Thinking of this, he nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes! I will abide by the decree of the Witch King! I must not offend the Duke of Tulip." Belch...... Is there anything else I can do to work? if the Witch King's pet is really captured by this Tulip Duke. I happen to be in Loulan City right now, and I'm bringing a retinue of local warriors. There are a lot of warriors, you can find out ......"
"No need!" Ai Lu simply refused: "The teacher's meaning is very clear, I sent you to do this before." Not to mention the loss of soldiers, I also lost a white-robed wizard in Snow Mountain! The teacher is greatly disappointed in your incompetence, you do your part in this matter, and don't care about the rest! As long as you negotiate the matter with the Duke Tulip, go back as soon as possible! I am responsible for the search for pets, and no one else is allowed to interfere. ”
"Yes yes yes ......"
Ai Lu's voice turned a little softer: "The teacher said, treat the Roland people." You can't be blindly tough or weak, we've tried the strong ones before. Since it doesn't work. Then now you might as well signal to the other party! It's king. ”
This is a vague and general statement, and it may not be true. But how could Hanmuye dare to refute "the teacher speaks the earth"? This teacher is the supreme witch king! He quickly nodded again and again.
"Get up!"
Eru waved her hand, "We still have something to do. You don't have to send it. ”
"Yes, yes!" Han Muye deliberately flattered again: "Honorable envoy, after all, this is the Tulip Duke's Palace, and there are many guards. Why don't I let my men cover your two departures......"
"Hmph. If we can come in, we can also go out. There are white-robed wizards here, and those Tulip Duke's guards are nothing. Elu waved her hand impatiently, and walked out of the tent with Dewey.
Outside the tent, a steppe warrior guarded the surroundings with a nervous face, but he carefully kept at least seven or eight meters away from the tent, and everyone was solemn, not daring to listen to the sound inside the tent.
Ai Lu turned to look at Han Muye: "Teacher's decree, you must not mention it to anyone, otherwise, it will be a big deal...... You know it yourself!"
Hanmuye's body shook and hurriedly responded, and Alley added: "You do things well, things are done well, in addition to the rewards of the royal court, if the witch king is happy, he will also reward you with something." ”
Hanmuye's heart rejoiced!
In the Prairie Royal Court, although he is also a person in the inner circle, but because he is not good at martial arts, many people look down on him, thinking that this guy is nothing more than relying on the blood of the royal family to sit in his current position, although the Prairie King is good to him, and he can be regarded as obedient, but there are many people around him who are not pleasing to the eye. If he can get the Witch King's appreciation, who will dare to laugh at him for not being brave enough in the future? Who will dare to mock him in front of him in the royal court?
Hearing this, Han Muye was about to make another big salute, but Ai Lu said lightly: "No need, I'm afraid of change, let's go." ”
Han Muye hurriedly touched it from his arms, took out a black sè cloth bag, quickly untied it, and held it in both hands: "Your Excellency, please stay...... This thing is a rare magic gem crystal that I found at a high price in the Roland Empire. The magicians of the Roland land are naturally far inferior to the wizards on the grassland. However, the magic props made by the magicians of the Roland people are indeed quite extraordinary. I know that wizards are busy cultivating, so naturally they don't care about any mundane things, but this crystal is the best for refining magic weapons. Please also ......"
Eru listened. Shen Sheng said angrily: "Han Muye, you are so bold! Have you forgotten the law of the snow-capped mountain subway? If the wizard who walks down the mountain receives a reward of one gold and one silver. What punishment awaits me!You deliberately bribed the wizard. And what punishment!"
Hanmuye's heart trembled. I thought that this horse could be slapped on the horse's leg, and quickly said, "No, no, please don't get me wrong." I spent tens of thousands of gold to buy the land for this crystal, and I went through many channels. It was only through a lot of insiders in the interior of the Roland Empire that I got it. Originally, I wanted to present it to the great Witch King! I didn't dare to bribe your envoy, so I just asked your envoy to pass it on to the Witch King on my behalf. To show that I Hanmuyah is a little loyal to the great land of the Witch King. ”
Ai Lu was about to refuse, but Du Wei next to her gently pulled her, and Ai Lu immediately understood. Stretched out his sleeve and rolled it up, and he accepted it. "Okay." I will tell the teacher what you want. ”
"And ......" Hanmuye looked at the two warriors lying on the ground with some embarrassment, "these two are my personal companions." Follow me for years, although just now they were rude to the two. It's also because of the duty. Not intentionally offensive...... Please also ......"
Ai Lu nodded, and Du Wei next to him suddenly smiled lightly in a hoarse voice, and raised his hand slightly. With a flick of the two fainting steppe warriors on the ground, two green mist drifted over. Du Wei suddenly sang in a low voice:
"Tesanlozi ......"
These characters are extremely short. But when it fell into the ears of Hanmuyedi, it was a god who was relieved.
He is the honor of the prince. On the grasslands, I have also witnessed wizards casting spells. Du Wei quickly chanted this witchcraft spell, and it was indeed a real snow-capped witchcraft. At this point, the last trace of doubt in his heart. It's finally gone.
Ai Lu next to her listened, but suddenly a trace of surprise erupted in her eyes, fortunately with a mask on her face, outsiders could not see her expression. He restrained himself in time and did not turn to look at Du Wei. This did not reveal a flaw.
Du Wei two clouds of green mist bounced out. The two warriors on the ground suddenly groaned. Wake up slowly.
In fact, what kind of witchcraft is this, it is simply the mist of medicinal powder that Du Wei made with magic potions. I just fascinated the two of them. What pops up now is just an antidote.
The two samurai jumped up as soon as they rolled over, unaware of the situation. Seeing that there are outsiders around me. The first reaction is to pull out the knife. Hanmuye hurriedly shouted in a low voice: "Bastard, stop!"
The two warriors were stunned for a moment, and when they saw Du Wei and Ai Ludi's outfits, their faces instantly panicked.
"My two subordinates are stupid...... Please also ......"
Listening to Hanmuye's words, a thought suddenly flashed in Du Wei's heart!
Tonight, pretending to be a warrior in the snow mountain to deceive this Hanmuye, although he succeeded for a while, but after he went back, there was always a time to show his filling. At that time, if you check it, I'm afraid that the people on the snow mountain will know that they did it...... As......
Blame for blame?
But who can he deliberately pretend to use witchcraft, but who can he give the blame to? Blue Ocean is not good, after all, Blue Ocean is now his ally.
So......
General Lu Gao, Major General Sebasta, then offend the two!
Du Wei snorted, and suddenly slowly walked to the side of the two warriors, and the two warriors saw a white-robed warrior come to their side, and they were even more frightened, and they didn't dare to look at Du Wei.
Brush!
Du Wei suddenly stretched out his hands at the same time and pulled out the scimitars of both of them. The two warriors only said that they had offended the wizard, and when they saw Du Wei draw his sword, they were afraid that their lives would not be guaranteed, and their faces were pale and they all knelt on the ground.
It's just that the people on the grassland have the most respect for wizards, even if Du Wei kills two people on the spot, the two will never dare to resist.
Du Wei held the two scimitars and silently recited a magic spell, but it was the real magic of the Roland Continent, and at the same time, his hands quickly wiped the two scimitars on his sleeves deliberately, and the magnet hidden in the sleeves had already destroyed the two scimitars silently.
Then the ice magic was cast, and two cold clouds appeared on his hands, and the two scimitars were frozen with a layer of ice crystals in an instant!
Immediately, Du Wei's wrist flicked, a few jingles and crisp sounds, and after the two scimitars froze, they were secretly destroyed by Du Wei with magnets, and suddenly turned into several pieces of ice iron, which broke inch by inch. Whispered fragments, still wrapped in ice.
When he saw it next to him, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and faintly remembered a legend on the snow-capped mountain. couldn't help but blurt out a low voice: "Frost Fighting Qi?!"
Du Wei sneered and deliberately glanced at Han Muye, and his eyes were clearly as if he was saying: You know the goods!
In this way, Du Wei threw away two handles. After slowly walking back to Eludi's side. Elu was shocked just now. Said vaguely: "Mind in your Hanmuye...... Spare them, and only destroy their knives. It's a small punishment. ”
Subsequently. Ignoring the two kneeling warriors behind him, the two of them quietly walked away. Walked less than twenty steps. Du Wei had already cast a yīn body spell. Suddenly, the figures of the two disappeared.
And the people of the grassland behind them also admired in their hearts: The witchcraft of the white-clothed wizard is really extraordinary......
Du Wei laughed in his heart:
Frost Fighting Spirit?
Very good, very good! You think this is the Frost Fighting Qi, then it couldn't be better! It's going to be frosty. Naturally, it's Sebasta! When the time comes, if the Witch King Bai Hechou tracks down the fake wizard landers. Just go to Lu Gao to settle the score......
The two of them floated out of the castle without a sound. Du Wei had already ordered in advance to transfer the guards who were guarding the Duke's palace around him tonight. In this way, the two men made all the way out of the castle, and after making sure that no one was following them, they returned to the Duke's palace from another direction. Hurried back to the dungeon in Aludi, and closed the door. Du Wei ripped off his floor cover. Then rub your hands on your face a few times. Rubbed the ground powder dye off his face. Scrubbed twice more from the bucket. Only then did he raise his head. Look at Elu. smiled and said, "I can't think of you." It works very well. Although your head is a little simpler. But fortunately, the lines are quite familiar. I think that Hanmuye must have been fooled. ”
That's all it takes. When she looked at Eru again, she didn't speak. A man stared blankly at the floor, then sat limply on the bed. Suddenly, she removed her wizard's robes, and tears flowed silently from her eyes.
"I ...... I betrayed the snowy mountains. Betrayal of the teacher. In this life, he is a traitor in the snowy mountains. There was a hint of desperation in Aludi's voice: "I...... I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm willing to help you do such a rebellious thing!......"
She jumped to her feet. He slammed headlong into the wall.
She moved extremely quickly, but fortunately, Du Wei was already quite skilled in magic at this time. Seeing that it is not good, my heart moves. It's just a teleportation that floats past. Blocked in front of Aludi. With a bang, Ai Lu slammed into Du Weidi's arms, with great force. Nearly knocked Du Wei over. It seems that this girl is bent on death, and just now she used all her strength to hit the wall.
"You ......," Ailu shuddered. But he felt that he had crashed into Du Wei's arms. I had a complicated feeling in my heart: "Why don't you let me die...... I, I became a traitor. I don't want to live anymore!"
Du Wei sighed in his heart, and said in his mouth: "I forced you to do it, even if you are guilty." And the sin is with me. And what does it have to do with you. 101 You are a girl, and you fall into the hands of a bad person like me, of course, you are powerless to resist. ”
"But......" Ailu's cheeks suddenly flushed: "You...... You didn't beat me, you didn't scold me, you didn't torture me...... I don't know how I can do it, so I ......" Speaking of this, his tone was even more low: "I just listened to you so stupidly, and I didn't have a trace of resistance in my head......"
However, Du Wei also felt a little guilty in his heart at the moment, looking at such a simple-minded girl, but under his own means, he became a traitor, and faintly thought: Is it too much for me to use this method to deal with a weak woman?
said on his lips: "Speaking of rebellion, you have rebelled against the snow mountain a long time ago, and you are not today." Isn't it a disobedience to your teacher's order to assassinate Lu Gao? Tonight, it's just a crime on top of a crime. The so-called debts are not hateful, lice are not itchy, and you don't have to feel too guilty. Things have come to this point...... What ...... future?"
Du Wei thought for a while: "You obediently follow me to do things, as long as you are loyal to me, I will not treat you badly." ”
After a pause, Du Wei suddenly remembered something again: "When you spoke to that Hanmuye just now, why did you report your real name Elulina? Didn't I tell you a long time ago that you reported a fake name? ”
Ai Lu shook her head sadly: "Everything has been done rebelliously, and I can't care about anything, sooner or later, the teacher will know one day, even if he doesn't check, I am also afraid and guilty in my heart." Say it or not, what's the difference. ”
Du Wei thought about it, and felt that Ai Ludang's assassination of Lu Gao was seen by many people, and the matter was probably impossible to hide. At that time, Bai Hechou tracked down the counterfeiter, and when he heard the name of Ailudi, most of them would associate this matter with Lu Gao, which was not bad.
Thinking of this, I won't mention this issue.
