Chapter 121: Reforge (Part II)
The naphtha sat on the edge of the city, and put his legs casually outside the city walls.
The spring breeze poured into the pass was warm and light, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers.
His loose hair swayed slightly in the wind, and the stone brain squinted his eyes, enjoying the gifts from spring.
The blazing sunlight is blocked by the towering mountain walls, casting huge shadows over the cracks in the mountains.
The pass, shrouded in shadows, is indeed a good place to escape the sun.
The scaly carapaces clinging to the calves collided with each other, making a crisp tinkling sound.
Peeling off the feathers of a piece of armor, he wrapped his hands around and walked to the side of the stone naphthalm.
Peel Feather lowered her eyes and looked at the end of the pass, dotted with the flowers of the wasteland.
"It's beautiful. ”
"It's not safe here. ”
Feather peeled off the end of the pass and looked away.
He squinted his eyes and looked at the tonophoria.
"I know. ”
The naphtha nodded, but had no intention of getting up at all.
"But am I still afraid of death?"
No longer know how to be afraid.
It's just that there is no attachment anymore.
Hearing this, Peel Feather was silent.
He turned his head and looked again at the distant pass.
"Stone, there is no excuse to live. ”
"The most important thing is to survive. ”
"Huh. ”
Cinnaphtha chuckled and stood up from the ground.
He stood behind the battlements and put his hands behind his back.
"Makes sense. ”
"Yu, you and I grew up drinking seed soup together in the shack area, when did you understand this?"
Hearing this, Peel Feather's body stiffened slightly, and a trace of uneasiness appeared on his face.
"Hmm. ”
"Ahem, ahem!"
Peeling the feathers sighed slightly. He covered his mouth with the palm of his hand and coughed in embarrassment.
"That's right. ”
Stonebrain chuckled and looked away from the end of the road.
He lowered his head and looked at the marble beneath his feet.
"People are always changing. ”
"The leader is already quite dignified, and I have adapted to who I am now. ”
However.
The naphthalm stretched out his right hand, reached out to his chest, and spread it upwards.
The stone brain with a downward gaze stared at the palm of his right hand that was spread out.
"I've killed more people these days than I've killed in most of my life before!!"
Unconsciously.
"I'm used to it. ”
The heart also sank.
A hideous look flashed in the eyes of the naphthalm. He suddenly clenched the palm of his right hand.
On the back of his right hand, the knuckles of the five fingers that were clenched together gave a different kind of paleness.
"Remember, our biggest wish was to meet the monkeys in the forest every day. ”
"Now, everything has changed. ”
Place your fist into a fist at your side.
The naphthol pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, and smiled wryly.
"The chief said he would take everyone home, but I was homeless. ”
"How many times have I held the hilt of my sword. Keep asking yourself what the hell you're fighting for?"
"yes. ”
Peel Feather's face was melancholy, and he sighed deeply.
"Our home has long been buried in the rubble along with our loved ones. ”
"After defeating the coalition of counties, the revenge is avenged. ”
"But the countenance of the beloved wife. It still comes to me every day. ”
"But I also know that she's dead. ”
Feather Peel turned around and placed his hand on Quinnaphtha's shoulder.
"Deceased relatives can be mourned. I can miss it, too. ”
"But people can't live in the past. ”
"Stone, one day, we will all come out. ”
"Chiefs and generals. None of them are killers, as long as they guard this pass. ”
"Leading troops to fight and rushing into battle will definitely become less and less. ”
Peel Feather patted Naphtha on the shoulder and walked towards the balcony.
Stonebrain tilted his head sideways, his eyes fixed on the back of Peel Feather as he left.
"Really. ”
After Peel Feather walked away, the naphtha turned around and put his hands behind his back.
He looked up at the sky, and he saw a dazzling golden flame that pierced the sky like a meteor.
"This kid is becoming more and more like a leader. ”
Naphtha's face was sluggish, and his lips squirmed slightly.
After the golden flame that pierced the sky rushed to the platform on the wall, the stone brain suddenly came back to his senses.
He quickly turned around and immediately ran towards the platform.
"Not bad, not bad. ”
Yougen stood on the platform, looking at the rope ladder boulders and logs piled on the marble above the wall, with a satisfied look on his face.
"That should be enough. ”
Arigen tilted his head to the left and right, observing the three men who were running towards the platform.
He curled the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"It's pretty much it. ”
Yougen raised his right hand and spread it out with his palm facing up.
Thin soil like sand fell between his fingers.
As the sand falls to the ground, it drifts away with the spring breeze.
Looking at the sandy soil scattered in the wind, Yougen frowned slightly and said, "Headwind?"
Then, the wrinkles on Yougen's forehead gradually relaxed, and he removed the smile from his face.
His face was expressionless and his expression was solemn.
"The impact shouldn't be significant. ”
Yougen suddenly clenched his right hand, staring at his fist with a determined gaze as still as a rock that had taken root.
"This time, time is on our side. ”
Somegen walked straight to the center of the platform, and he bent down and lifted the baffle that was placed on the platform.
He jumped straight in.
The body with roots is constantly accelerating as it falls.
When his feet were about to touch the ground, he activated the vitality in his body.
His body immediately radiated a hazy golden color.
He lingered in the air for a moment before slowly landing on the marble-covered porcelain slabs.
The door of the hall was first pushed open by Peel Feather, and Peel Feather strode in front of Yougen.
He got down on one knee and saluted with a fist in front of Yougen.
Then he got up again and stood where he was.
The second to enter the door was the stone naphthal, and the last to enter the door was Li Xi.
The three of them stood side by side in front of Yougen.
The animal oil, which was inserted into the thick pillars covered with red lacquer and wrapped in wooden handles, burned violently in the fire, giving it a dim glow that illuminated the temple.
In a copper pot filled with pine resin and mahogany, a bonfire is raging.
The heavy scent of the wood grease concealed the old rancid stench that permeated the hall, but it could not change the ridge of the door, which creaked when it was opened and closed, and the pillars, which had lost a lot of red paint and showed a brownish and red mottled surface.
Everything in the temple is the same as before Yougen left.
Surveying his surroundings, one grinned, turned and walked briskly onto the narrow wooden platform made of wooden sticks.
He walked around the couch and walked to the couch.
He lowered his head and looked at the leather cushion lying on the ground in front of his feet.
The blue hides are lined with red spots.
Clean surface, without the slightest stain or dust.
Looking at the clean hides in front of his feet, Yougen was silent for a moment, and then let out a long sigh.
He raised his head and looked straight ahead.
"Today, I will teach you how to make a cable car for throwing stones. ”
"Tomorrow, let two thousand soldiers drive a wagon full of rocks through the mountain road out of the pass, and order them to assemble in the evening in front of the pass, thirty miles. ”
"You have selected five thousand elites, and two hours before the morning of tomorrow night, you will follow me down the city wall with a rope ladder. (To be continued......)
