Chapter 213 The Price of Betrayal
At this time, the night in the woods was almost closing.
Only the bonfire was burning slowly.
The aroma of roasted wild boar permeates the surrounding wilderness, but because of the presence of fire and the presence of two monsters that are more powerful than wild boars, no predators dare to come and snatch the food.
Of course, since it is summer and food is plentiful, few top predators will adopt more reckless hunting behaviors because of hunger.
Here we need to rule out a certain iron-headed tiger who thinks that a certain girl in white is easy to bully.
Now its ashes have almost been raised.
"Are you interested in this question?" Hei Wuyang drank the entire water in the sheepskin bag, then turned back, looked at Fang Bing, and said quietly.
This dark-skinned young man's eyes were clear at this time, but with a hint of danger.
"Yes." Fang Bie nodded: "I'm very curious."
"People like you shouldn't be so curious." Heiwu said.
"Yes, curiosity killed the cat." Fang Bie nodded.
"But I have worked hard to this point just to have the qualifications to inquire into all the things I am curious about."
Heiwu fell silent, then shook the sheepskin bag in his hand: "What is in this?"
" Orange juice flavor is a bit troublesome to make, but in the final analysis, it is made from freshly squeezed orange juice and lemon juice." Fang Bie said quietly.
He didn't explain to Hei Wu exactly how it was done, because explaining it was tantamount to playing the lute to a cow. Just telling Hei Wu what it was was enough.
"Aside from being delicious, what other effects does it have?" Hei Wu continued to ask.
"It's a drink similar to wine." Fang Bie said, "But unlike wine, you won't get drunk no matter how much you drink it. Compared with water, it can provide more energy and nutrients, and it's also more palatable. "
What Fang Bie didn't say is that in the future field military rations, basically all countries' field military rations will have such a pack of functional drinks, and they will basically be orange juice flavored. This is another story.
Although Fang Bie is definitely not as good as others, I can't bear to say that Fang Bie uses good materials and is meticulously crafted in a small workshop.
"Not bad stuff." Heiwu nodded and said.
He threw the sheepskin bag to Fang Bie again, and then asked: "What is the question you just wanted to ask?"
Hei Wu looked at Fang Bie: "You still have a chance to take back the question."
"Why should I take it back?" Don't smile.
This young man has always had this lazy and confident expression, and even when facing Hei Wu, this expression did not relax at all.
In a sense, as long as Fang Bu is willing to face Hei Wu alone, then he thinks Hei Wu is not a fatal threat to him.
Whether it is a fatal threat subjectively or objectively.
"Then why do you want to know?" Hei Wu asked.
"Because I don't trust you." Fang Bie said frankly.
"You naturally have reasons to distrust us, but why did you propose to us to invite us to join the hive?" Hei Wu said.
"Because we need your strength for the time being, and the previous cooperation was also very pleasant, and through gradual observation, I found that you are much better than I originally thought, and you are a high-quality ally above the standard." Fang Bie said: " Since it is a high-quality ally, I need to investigate further."
"Why?" Heiwu asked.
"Because I want to know how much I can trust you." Fang Bie said quietly.
The bonfire burned silently aside.
The firewood creaked in the campfire.
Hei Wu smiled: "Then you don't need to trust us to any extent." "
Because all the loyalty in this world is just a bargaining chip for betrayal."
"All the betrayal in this world is because the other party has opened it for you. I made an irresistible offer."
"I really can't believe that such philosophical words come from your lips, who have always prided themselves on my stupidity." Fang Bie said with emotion.
"So I'm here to ask you a question." The young man's expression was serious, and the light and shadow flickered under the firelight.
"What's the bargaining chip for your betrayal?"
"How can I make you an offer you can't refuse?"
Hei Wu couldn't help laughing: "Do you want to be so confident?" "
But I really made an offer to Ningxia. Conditions." Fang Bie said quietly: "The condition I gave her is to cure the poison in her body and help her get rid of the control of the miserable old man." "If I can meet
this condition, then Ningxia will naturally make her Choice."
"Then I really want to ask."
"What are the conditions for your betrayal?"
Hei Wu slowly became silent: "Is this why you asked that question?"
Fang Bie asked the question - Hei Wu What is the relationship with Ningxia?
"Yes and no." Fang Bie said quietly, "I just want to know how you would answer this question now." "
Okay." Heiwu said lightly.
"She is my sister."
... Luo City
,
Xiaohun Inn.
Moonlight enters the house.
It's just that the inn is extremely quiet at this time.
Dragon Boat Festival was eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his room, although he was very greedy for the delicacies in the other room.
But He Ping told him that this was not something a child should eat.
So during the Dragon Boat Festival, I could only eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake in my room.
As he ate, he thought about the day's events.
Why would he blurt out such obscure scriptures as if he had recited them thousands of times before, as naturally as breathing.
Maybe this is the memory before I lost my memory?
Those things that are hidden deep in the memory and can be recalled with just a little recall?
Thinking like this, Dragon Boat Festival couldn't help but start reciting those scriptures again.
"Relics, color is not different from emptiness, and emptiness is not different from color. Color is emptiness, emptiness is color, and the same is true for feelings, thoughts, actions and consciousness." During the
Dragon Boat Festival, he recited the sutra, and his mind gradually became ethereal, and the whole room was once again filled with the orchid-like musk. Fragrant, like the scent of the ripest fruits and flowers.
In another room, it was also filled with fragrance.
Only this time, it's a truly mouth-watering scent.
On the pot of hot charcoal fire, there was a thin iron wire rack, on which were grilled sliced black pork belly, properly marinated venison cut into small strips, and all kinds of delicious food. Meat without a name.
He Ping held a pair of surprisingly long serving chopsticks and turned the meat slices over on the thin wire mesh rack to let them heat evenly. From time to time, she would give a few slices to Ning Xia who was lying aside. Although Ning Xia was lying on the stool, at least Eating is not a problem.
As He Ping said before, no matter what delicacies it is, if you want it, He Ping can get it for you.
Then put it on the fire to bake.
On the other side of the bed, Shang Jiuge was still sleeping peacefully. After the girl fell asleep, she was like an old monk in meditation, especially quiet and ethereal.
But as more and more meaty aroma wafted into Shang Jiuge's nose, the dying girl sat up in shock.
"What delicious food are you making!"
Shang Jiuge said.
