Chapter 1092: Meet Perrault Again (I)
However, when he looked back, the expressions of the three of them all froze at once, and the expressions of sluggishness and confusion suddenly appeared on the faces of the three of them, and the three of them couldn't help but look at each other, all showing expressions of unknown and incomprehensible
Because, after turning around, they were surprised to find that the person in the memory did not appear, and the voice in the memory also disappeared, and there was only one patriarch of the Southern Beast Clan in front of them, what was going on? Could it be that the voice they heard just now was fake? The three of them had auditory hallucinations?
As soon as they thought of this, it was no wonder, Xiaobai and He Xiaotian all looked at each other in disbelief, feeling that this matter was strange, how could it be that all three of them had auditory hallucinations at the same time? The three of them couldn't help but be suspicious.
"Senior Wei Ming, just now...... Did you hear a voice just now?"
Wei Ming nodded without thinking, "I heard it." ”
Heard it?
Wuqi's heart moved, he thought for a while, his face immediately showed joy, and after knowing that Lu Dao was not an auditory hallucination, he eagerly asked: "Then do you know where the person who called me just now?"
As soon as they heard this, the other two also had their eyes flashing, looking at Wei Ming expectantly, hoping that Wei Ming would give him a clear answer.
However, Wei Ming disappointed them, because after listening to Wuqi's words, Wei Ming did not find out the specific location of Perot for them for the first time, but looked at Wuqi silently, his head tilted, and his eyes suddenly became very strange, as if he was particularly surprised that Wuqi would ask such a thing.
Although after a long time. Wei Ming didn't say a word, but his eyes were already like saying, "Are you an idiot?", which was understandable at a glance.
"What's the matter? Senior Wei Ming, why are you showing such an expression?" Wuqi had extraordinary insight, so he naturally understood the meaning of this gaze at a glance, and he asked puzzledly.
When Wei Ming heard this, he directly pointed to a person who was always silent on the side, and said, "Isn't the person who talked to you just now?" Can't you hear me?"
When I heard this, I was not surprised. He Xiaotian and Xiaobai's hearts were all suddenly overjoyed. The corners of his mouth looked in the direction Wei Ming pointed with a smile, looking forward to reuniting with Perrault after a long absence. However, after really seeing who Wei Ming was referring to, they were all dumbfounded. Everyone's face showed a look of shock that was difficult to hide.
Especially unusual. After seeing who the person Wei Ming was referring to was. Both eyes were about to fall out, and the pupils contracted violently, and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
Because. The person Wei Ming was referring to was none other than the patriarch of the Southern Beast Clan, an orc with a lion's head and a human body.
"You...... Are you Big Brother Perrot?" After hesitating for a while, Wuqi asked subconsciously even though he didn't believe it in his heart.
When the patriarch of the Southern Beast Clan heard this, his eyes were still very cold and ruthless at first, but when he saw the deep disappointment on Wuqi's face, his expression immediately changed, as if he had suddenly changed a person, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled and patted Wu Qi's shoulder, like an old acquaintance who had already been familiar with Wu Qi, nodded cordially, and said, "You kid."
Why don't you believe it yet? That's right, it's me, and Perot is!"
"But you look ......" Wuqi was taken aback, unable to believe what he was seeing and hearing, and pointed to the other person's head.
"Ha Luha! it turns out to be this, it's actually just a hood!" After hearing this, the patriarch of the Southern Beast Clan laughed louder, his eyes changed, and he showed a mysterious smile at Wuqi, and patted his hands lightly on his head, and his hands took off his head in an instant, and everyone present was startled, and couldn't help but gasp.
However, after a while, they found out that they had seen it wrong, the other party's head did not leave the body, what left was only a lion's head, and the other party still had a live head on his shoulder, but this head had nothing to do with the Southern Beast clan.
Because, the facial features are no longer beasts, they are completely human appearance, the nose and eyes are extremely delicate, no longer rough, the hair on the face is no longer thick, the only thick is only the hair, this is a well-defined face, the facial features are not too delicate, but the smile is unique.
The smile that is very friendly, as if it has magical power, is irresistible, so that anyone who sees it cannot have any hostility, but has an urge to get close.
This is Perot, a Perot whose identity is a human being, this is Perot, the Perot who is no different from Wuqi's memory, with a chubby face, small eyes like slits, but a very representative smile, definitely a person who cannot be imitated by others.
Seeing that the person in front of him was really a living Perot, not someone else, Wuqi's heart suddenly became excited, and a warm current suddenly flowed all over his body, making him feel like he was still at home in the Lanfa Continent, and the family and all the partners were still living in peace, not like now, his wife and children were gone, and the bamboo still did not know where to go.
"Brother Perot! It's really you! I want to kill you!"
At the same time, just when Wuqi recognized Perot, the other two also recognized Perot, especially John, who used to have almost a lot of conversations with Perot and had a very close relationship, but now that he hadn't seen him for so long, his heart suddenly became excited, and he rushed forward to have a bear hug with Perot almost immediately.
Although He Xiaotian is not as active as John, he also has a bright smile on his face, which is a smile from the heart, innocent and simple, without any other emotions, only the purest happiness after reuniting with friends after a long absence.
The next period of time is the time for everyone to catch up.
Perot put a large table of wine and food in the center of the square of the territory of the Southern Beast Clan, greeting Wuqi and his party, and the two sides drank wine and ate meat in large chunks, as if they were celebrating a festival, the atmosphere was festive and lively, whether it was the people of the Southern Beast Clan or the Wuqi people who were human beings, they all seemed to forget the previous unhappiness and began to toast each other again and again.
Wait for the wine to pass three rounds. After the five flavors of the dish, everyone had eaten almost enough, and the topic that was forcibly diverted by Perrault a moment ago was once again brought to people's attention.
I saw an old orc who was old and frail, but his spirit was very good, and he staggered to the center of the banquet step by step with a cane, and after looking around at all the clansmen at the banquet, he said, "Hello everyone.
I'm your previous patriarch, and I know you all have a lot to ask me. Whether it is the Lord of the Book of Heaven and these friends brought by the Lord of the Book of Heaven. Or the warriors of our own people. I want to understand why I will choose a human to be the current patriarch of my race. ”
At this point, the old patriarch paused, as if he was recalling something, and did not rush to start the narrative. The whole person fell into silence.
The crowd saw this. None of them made a sound. Zhilu said that he wanted to brew it, but they all remained silent tacitly, and seriously put on a listening posture. Select Wait.
After a while, as expected, when the old patriarch swept around again and expressed a satisfactory response to their reactions, he showed a faint smile, and patiently explained while recalling.
"Actually, the reasons for this are a bit complicated. If you want to say it in detail, I can't really finish it in a few days, but I know that I must give you an explanation today, especially the warriors of our clan, I know that if I don't give you a satisfactory explanation today, you will definitely disagree with this new patriarch, right?"
"That's right, old patriarch, you must give us an explanation!"
"Yes! Otherwise, we will have to choose a new patriarch! Didn't you say that we are incompatible with human beings, why why did this generation of patriarchs you choose turn out to be a human being, we really can't understand it, and we can't accept it!"
"Good. ”
The old patriarch nodded, seeing that the atmosphere was gradually becoming warmer, he said without hurrying and breathless: "I will definitely give you an explanation today, but I won't go into details, I'll make a long story short." In this way, it is also convenient for everyone to understand. Here's the thing, I've never told you why I hate humans so much.
Take this opportunity today to reveal this secret to everyone. Because, my grandfather, grandmother, and father and mother were all killed by humans. And myself, when I was young, was deceived by humans and almost died at the hands of humans.
So, ever since I escaped from the humans decades ago, I have made a vow to stand against the humans. And that's why I hate humans and hate them.
At that time, I had the impression that human beings were the embodiment of selfishness, greed, and cunning, and that each of them was a demon, and that there was no such thing as good. However, this thinking changed completely after I met Perrault, your current patriarch.
When I met him, I happened to be wounded so badly that I thought I would leave you that day. However, God did not seem to want me to leave, and on that day, I met Perrault, and when he saw me, he didn't ask anything, and he directly rescued me.
Not only did he help me heal all my injuries, but he also accompanied me day and night during the time I was healing, and later, he protected me all the way back to my clan. It can be said that if Perot had not been there at that time, then I would not have been able to stand in front of everyone now, let alone have a good conversation with everyone. ”
At this point, the old patriarch of the Southern Beast Clan paused again, he slowly turned his head, and glanced meaningfully at Perot in the distance, the noise that filled the square was suddenly affected, and it quieted down, and all the clansmen of the Southern Beast Clan fell into silence at this moment.
At this time, when they looked at Perrault again, there was no longer any disgust in their eyes, only the same gratitude in the eyes of the old patriarch, and some of their own realizations.
Seeing this, the old patriarch glanced around, and found that the clansmen's attitude towards Wei Ming had changed significantly, he nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "I know what everyone is thinking now, everyone must think that I handed over the inheritance of the patriarch to him out of gratitude to Perot, right? Actually, you only guessed half right, and there is another important reason. ”
Another important reason?
When they heard this, everyone was shocked again. This time, even Wuqi and his party of four turned their heads and looked at the old patriarch in the center of the square suspiciously, no one could understand what the other party wanted to say, but their hearts were full of deep expectations, hoping to hear more exciting news.
