Chapter 112 – Throne of Thorns
Strictly speaking, Xiran's capacity for alcohol is not bad, but he always sips it slowly, and extremely despises drinking like drinking water, especially fine wine that is hard to buy, he just pours it into his mouth, In the end, I didn't even get a taste, isn't that a waste of money?
Now that he actually did this once, pouring a whole cup suddenly, Xi Ran only felt that his throat was about to burn from the stimulation of the spicy alcohol.
Xi Ran's gaze almost became severe, even if she was sitting upright in the hall, it was difficult to see such gaze. "If I say, I saw some kind of 'hope' from you, would you believe it?"
hope?It is no longer a question of believe it or not.Xiaobai didn't understand what the other party meant at all.He suddenly raised his head, his face was full of confusion, but in this way, his eyes were no longer ambitious and sharp.
Xi Ran also planned to confess to Xiao Bai when the right time came.Originally, I thought about waiting a little longer, but the current scene pieced together by various coincidences might be the most appropriate time.
To complete his plan to subvert the tradition of monsters, he can complete some steps without anyone noticing, but he can't complete some steps, and he will definitely need the sincere assistance of others.
Of course, Xiran was born to be the well-deserved king of monsters. A being as high as him was not used to revealing his bottom line to others.So up to now, including the monster officials of the four major families, only the high priest, Hao Yan, has a vague understanding of what the emperor must want to do.
Yes, I just vaguely understand that Xi Ran never revealed the details of the half plan.He and Haoyu are friends on the same front. The high priest has a premonition that disaster is coming, while the emperor is under the pressure of invisible forces all the time. Because the two of them have the same worries, all of them become Companions with the same goal.
But what about Xiaobai who is a human being?I'm afraid it's not within this category.What would he do if the fate of the monster was told to him?You don't have to think about it.
Thinking in the way of a superior, Xiran should continue to take advantage and control—now he can’t deny that when he rescued several humans including Xiaobai on a whim, he also had some intention of taking advantage of it. At most, they picked up a few special kittens and puppies.For the emperor, it is the safest way to firmly control everything in the world.
"The monster's energy is about to run out."
Those six short words elicited an earth-shattering power. However, the monster emperor who uttered these words was still unmoved and indifferent. Pick and choose, choose those favorite dishes to eat, and the hand holding the chopsticks can't be more stable.
Speaking of it, Xiran himself didn't expect such a reaction. I don't know if it was because the force was suppressed on his shoulders for too long, not only became a habit, but also gradually accepted the truth from the heart, so at the moment of speaking For a moment, it will be so logical.
Xi Ran couldn't help laughing at himself slightly. Speaking of which, he was an emperor who had a tendency to self-torture. At this point, the warning from "Heavenly Dao" should have been spread throughout the monster world long ago. I don't know anything, it's all because he carried everything down by himself.But what if you don't carry it down?Cause panic in the whole family?
Forget it, before you come up with a proper solution, you can bear it for a while.
Having handed over the most important hole card, Xi Ran waited for the other party's reaction, presumably Xiao Bai would not be able to help but congratulate him, and if his character was a bit worse, he would even add a bit of gloating.
However, nothing.Xi Ran's expected expression did not appear on Xiao Bai's face at all.
On his face was a deep thought that Xi Ran could not understand, as if he had engraved this solemnity bit by bit with a knife and axe, with furrowed brows, slightly narrowed eyes, and tight lips.Xi Ran suddenly realized that this guy was no longer the boy he used to be.
The growth of human beings is so fast, in the blink of an eye, people are caught off guard.
Similarly, when they usher in the end of their lives, it is still only in the blink of an eye, especially for monsters, I am afraid that there is not enough time for sadness.
"I don't understand, what do you mean by the end of your life?" Xiaobai is not pretending. Maybe when he used the bitter trick before, he meant to be a bit of a fool to show weakness, but at this moment, he has no longer cared about it.The words that Xi Ran threw out were far beyond all his imagination, and he couldn't easily accept them.And it was because he was so confused that he couldn't help but think deeply.
Not only did the other party not get carried away with joy, but he was able to calmly ask the bottom line. Xi Ran was not sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing.The pungent taste in her throat hadn't dissipated completely before, Xi Ran raised her glass subconsciously and poured herself another round.Fortunately, this was Xiaobai's first time drinking with him, and he didn't know the emperor's usual drinking habits, otherwise he would definitely be able to see that the other party's emotions were faintly showing signs of losing control.
"I'm exhausted, which means I'm about to die." Xi Ran sneered, his throat was burning, and his laugh sounded particularly hoarse.What he laughed at was not the other party's knowingly asking, but his own immobility.Knowing that the clan is about to come to an end, no competent king can discuss the ending with outsiders so calmly, right?
Xi Ran couldn't help asking herself, what kind of thoughts did she hold subconsciously?Could it be that he actually thinks that the demise of monsters is not a bad thing?That's why he concealed the warning of "Heaven's Dao" perfectly, and watched the day when the clansmen went to destruction without knowing it.
"Is this the 'hope' you just mentioned? Let me save the monster?" Xiaobai asked again. To be precise, this is what he couldn't understand.
The word "hope" seemed to have awakened Xiran, he instinctively closed his eyes, and brought back some derailed thoughts.Since he is still trying his best to chase that sliver of hope, it proves that he still cannot stand by and watch the future of his clansmen.
King for a day, king for life.
Only by sitting on it can one truly understand what a throne of swords and thorns is.
"If I say 'yes', are you willing to save the monster? Save us?" From last night to now, no, or since we met, Xi Ran has never spoken to Xiao Bai in a similar tone.At first, it was an unquestionable order, insisting on asking for an answer, but later on, there was a touch of sincerity at the end of his words, so fickle, so complicated, it was simply beyond what pen and ink could describe.
Xiaobai thought that he seemed to be asking himself - if I was going to die, would you save me?
The apex of the heart was severely grabbed.If those vague pains in the past were bearable, the severe pain at this moment almost made Xiao Bai bend down in pain.
But the more he was like this, the more he refused to admit defeat, his back straightened up, his strength was too much, and he started to feel numb after a while.Xiaobai's throat rolled twice, and he finally replied, "I'm just Baizi, I can't save monsters." This sentence wasn't even a refusal, it was just stating a simple and destined fact.
Pinning his hopes on him, His Majesty the Emperor might be crazy, but there is no need for him to go crazy with him.
To be precise, he is not qualified for this.How could Bai Zi, who was trampled in the mud, save the master of this world? !
"Yeah, you can't save it! No one can save it!" Xi Ran seemed to accept it suddenly, and smiled three times with the corners of her lips raised.The one who stretched out his hand went to get the flagon again, but it was already empty.
When preparing this table of food and drink, he did not intend to plan a drink to drown his sorrows.Although the selected wine is a rare fine wine, the quantity is not much, just one pot.Alcohol is something that can add to the fun, but if there is too much, I am afraid that the two people sitting opposite each other will not be able to talk well, so you need to master a certain degree, and stop it.But at this moment, Xi Ran felt a little regretful, why didn't she bring a few jars from the wine cellar?
The wine jug of bone china was already fragile, so it couldn't stand the pressure from outside. With a "click", it became a pile of horrible fragments in Xiran's palm.
The tiles are sharp, but not enough to hurt the monsters, so Xiao Bai didn't worry about it.The tingling pain that spread in his heart was only because of what Xi Ran said just now—while putting the burden of hope on his shoulders, he frankly said, "Your strength is too weak to bear this burden." heavy responsibility".
In Xiran's heart, what exactly does he regard him as?
There are all kinds of fires that ignite ambition. Correspondingly, there are countless fuels that make the fire of ambition burn more and more intensely, such as extreme injuries, extreme pain, extreme letting go, extreme pursuit, and that little bit of insignificance. The ... longing.
One of Xiaobai's hands was grasping the edge of the stone table. It's a pity that he didn't have the iron claws like a monster that stepped on the stone. , was peeled off abruptly.Xi Ran on the other side didn't know what she was thinking, and she didn't pay attention at all.
This time, Xiaobai was not trying to gain sympathy, nor would he pretend to show the wound in front of the other person intentionally or unintentionally. He quietly retracted his hand into his sleeve.Pain isn't all bad, at least it can be lucid.He finally remembered that he had overlooked a very important thing just now, "The monster clan is in full swing, and it doesn't look like it has come to an end. Did you... make a mistake?" No one has ever dared to point out the emperor's innocence to his face. This is enough to prove that this guy is audacious.
If Xi Ran hadn't been carrying the invisible pressure alone, allowing that force to spread, there would probably have been casualties among the monster beast clan, and the first to bear the brunt would be the weakest, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled.
In full swing?What Xiaobai said is not wrong, at least it looks like this on the surface.It's just that this false prosperity and peace in the world are all built on the backbone of Xi Ran alone.
However, this matter is a secret that even Hao Yan knows nothing about. Although Xi Ran has decided to confess to the other party, it has not yet reached the point of revealing everything.As long as his spine is not completely crushed, Xiran is ready to carry this secret to the grave.
"I probably really just overthink it." Xi Ran continued following the other party's wishes.Undoubtedly holding a piece of broken porcelain in her hand, Xi Ran casually threw it aside. "Recently, I've been thinking about how monsters should get along with humans. As I think about it, I inevitably come up with some weird ideas." Speaking of this, Xi Ran also added a wry smile, full of self-deprecating meaning.
Xiaobai was originally clever and quick to understand, and the topic Xiran said at this moment happened to cater to his long-standing pursuit, so he immediately came to his senses, "That's why you tried every means to let me manage Fenggou Mountain."
Xi Ran nodded.This matter must be clearly explained to Xiaobai, and this was originally the topic of today.What he just talked about, after all, he was too hasty.
As for the matter of autonomy in the mining area, although it was a reward at the Dachao meeting after many twists and turns, Xiaobai still had no real feeling until now.Xiran must not understand his mood at this time, right?It's just a barren and desolate mountainous area. His Majesty the Emperor said that he would give it a reward. A monster like him must not be able to imagine what this land means to human beings.
At this time, Xiaobai is like a child who has received a dream gift. He cherishes it too much and can't believe it.
Xi Ran turned serious, it's not that he doesn't believe in Xiaobai's ability, but he can't help but ask a few more words when it comes to the end, "Speaking of which, there is no such tradition in the past, what can we do to shut everyone's mouths and let everyone Everyone is happy, you can only rely on yourself to find out slowly. There is a saying I must say first, if everything goes well, the credit will naturally belong to you, and no one can take it away. But if there is any trouble in Fenghook Mountain, you Equally to blame.”
After all, he is still the king of a country, trying to protect Xiaobai's merits is already regarded as partiality, if he continues to cover up his guilt, Xi Ran may not even be able to pass his own test.
Staring straight into Xiaobai's eyes, Xi Ran looked extremely serious, "If you want to push back this job, it's still too late to bring it up."
"No, I won't." Xiaobai replied firmly.
After a pause, Xiaobai said again, "Fenghook Mountain is just the beginning. I hope that in the future, the land that can allow us humans to live and work in peace and contentment will become wider and wider. The land does not need to be fertile, nor does it need inexhaustible resources. , as long as it is safe, in the self-governing land, we don't have to worry about it, we don't have to be the target of monsters and beasts, we just need a piece of pure land where we can live in peace."
When saying these things, Xiao Bai knew very well that the fire of ambition in his eyes must have been so hot that it could not be concealed.But he still tried his best to control it, and only showed a part of it, a very small part, in front of the Monster Beast Emperor.
Even so, Xi Ran was still scared, right?Otherwise why is he silent?
Xiaobai became restless, and his breathing rhythm changed.The emperor's will decides the future of the whole world, let alone a tiny human being.Fenggoushan, who had exhausted all his efforts to obtain it, was afraid that he would miss him.
The author has something to say:
Under the oppression of the aunt, the stupid author's life is in danger at any time. . .
Now that he actually did this once, pouring a whole cup suddenly, Xi Ran only felt that his throat was about to burn from the stimulation of the spicy alcohol.
