Chapter 213 [The world! 】

Let it go, or not let it go. This is the question before Du Wei.

Although the shaman's tone was quite polite, the meaning in the words made Du Wei faintly feel a kind of arrogance.

Get out of the way, search?

This is my territory, my territory! With your Witch King's order, you can come and search my land at will?

Why?

Intellectually, since the status of the Witch King is so lofty and inviolable on the grassland, it is not a good choice for Du Wei to conflict with the other party now. However, things are not that simple.

Du Wei has just arrived in the northwest, and it hasn't been long. If at this time, the opponent's thousands of cavalry can enter and leave his territory at will, and his own army sees it, they will retreat... What kind of humiliation is this?

It was spread that Du Wei, as the lord, lost all face and lost his majesty! How will you order the Northwest in the future? This place in the northwest, the land of tigers and wolves, respects the strong, if you take one step back, others will take two steps forward. If you show weakness a little, others will really look down on you.

Thinking of this, Du Wei's heart suddenly moved.

Northwest Army! What a Northwest Army!

What a warlord!

With the heavy responsibility of guarding the frontiers of the empire, how could he just release the troops of these hostile forces so casually. Entering the hinterland of his territory so casually! The checkpoints guarding the northwest corridor didn't even send a message! This approach of the Northwest Army made Du Wei very angry.

What's the use of such an army! !

Seeing Du Wei's face suddenly darken, Longbottom had probably guessed what the young Duke was thinking, and he said slowly, "Boss..."

"General Longbottom, what do you mean?" Du Wei narrowed his eyes.

"Boss, as long as you give an order, although they have more people than us, the old subordinates brought out by me are not vegetarians! Although the guys on the other side are the elite of the grassland royal family, I think they are not weaker than them. The worst thing is to fight That's it!" Of course, Longbottom wasn't blindly reckless, he said in a low voice, "They are superior in strength, but in our territory, they may not dare to go all out to fight us, and it will not be easy to defeat them. But I'm still somewhat sure of forcing them back."

Du Wei nodded, then he thought for a while, and then said loudly to the two shamans: "Your Excellency, I would like to ask you a question."

"Oh?" The two wizards glanced at each other, the one who spoke just now frowned slightly, looked at Du Wei, but turned to look at Longbottom: "Lord Mossack, who is this?"

Just as Longbottom was about to speak, Du Wei preemptively said loudly: "I am the lord of the Desa Province, the servant of Duke Tulip."

The two shamans nodded.

Du Wei's words did not arouse the other party's suspicion, because Du Wei originally didn't like the gorgeous clothes of the nobles, and he usually dressed very simply.

"Then, please." The two shamans said at the same time.

"Excuse me, Your Excellency." Du Wei straightened his chest. He asked loudly: "At this moment, is the land you and I are stepping on the land of the steppe royal family, or my Roland Empire's territory!"

"..." The two were silent.

"Excuse me, Your Excellency!" Du Wei said louder: "At this moment, the ruler of the land under our feet is your Witch King or our Tulip Duke!"

"..."

"Excuse me, Your Excellency! Is the flag flying on this land the Scarlet Skull Flag or our flame tulip flag!!"

Du Wei's full voice echoed in the field, and the imperial cavalry on this side listened. Everyone's expression was shocked. Can't help but straighten up.

The two wizards frowned and looked at each other for a while. One of them said in a deep voice: "This young gentleman, can I understand that you rejected the order of the great Witch King?"

Du Wei sneered: "Sorry, you mentioned the word 'order', I am a citizen of the empire! The great Witch King seems to have no right to issue any orders to my name!"

A green look flashed across that wizard's face, and then he was about to get angry when an old wizard beside him who had spoken just now seemed to be much calmer, his voice was not so impulsive, and he said slowly: "Young sir, I I think you may have taken this matter too seriously. This is just a request from the great Witch King... Well, isn’t this small concession enough to gain the friendship of the great Witch King?”.

"Is it friendship?" Du Wei said loudly: "Excuse me, if our lord duke, with a hundred thousand iron hooves, went to the royal court of the grassland someday and asked to search for a lost pet of a certain lord duke, such an act would also be punished." Do you see it as 'friendship'?!"

The grumpy wizard among them said angrily: "Ignorant boy! How can your duke compare with the supreme witch king!"

"Really!" Du Wei laughed loudly, then turned around and pointed at the cavalry under Longbottom behind him, and shouted loudly, "I ask you! Whose warriors are you!"

Thousands of people shouted in unison: "Tulips!!!"

"Tell me, to whom do you pledge allegiance!"

"tulip!!!"

Du Wei nodded, sneered, and looked at the shaman: "My lord shaman, I heard that even on the grassland, respecting the opponent is the most basic virtue! Then let me tell you, our Tulip Duke My lord, I will never say the impolite words you just said."

The calm wizard smiled: "This young gentleman, please forgive my companion's slip of the tongue. Of course I have heard of the reputation of the Duke of Tulip. He is the youngest genius in your country, an outstanding magician, a The outstanding leader is also the youngest duke. The magical miracles he showed in the northwest, and the construction of a majestic city in three months, we have all heard these legends. I don't intend to show any disrespect to the duke. It's just today The Witch King has decrees about the matter. We must find the pet, so please forgive me for not being able to leave here empty-handed."

"Then, let the Lord Duke decide." Du Wei said slowly: "The sole ruler of this land is the Duke of Tulip! It happens that the Lord Duke is also here, so I must go and ask the Lord for instructions."

After finishing speaking, Du Wei didn't even look at the two wizards. He turned around and walked back to his queue. The two shamans frowned upon hearing this. They did not expect to meet Longbottom's cavalry in this remote town, let alone Duke Tulip would happen to be here.

Although Longbottom and the others didn't know what Du Wei was up to, they all knew that the young duke had a lot of tricks, so naturally they wouldn't expose Du Wei's true identity.

Longbottom led his men to confront the opponent outside the town, but Du Wei had already returned to the town quickly. Outside the farmhouse, more than a hundred people surrounded the farmhouse, but Du Wei ran to the side first and grabbed little Sandy. After looking at him carefully, he suddenly said, "Sandy, take off your clothes quickly! Quick!"

Sandy was taken aback, but Du Wei couldn't wait any longer, so he stretched out his hand to unbutton Sandy's clothes, and then Sandy called out, "My lord..."

"Quick! It's too late to explain. You take it off and listen to me."

Du Wei quickly dug out what he needed from his storage ring: a set of new robes in the standard noble style, a pair of new leather boots, and some decorations. Then he gave Little Sandy a simple fiddle. After being fully dressed, little Sandy looks like a little noble from the outside.

Du Wei took a closer look, and suddenly took out a black cloak. This was remade according to his black magician's robe, and the black cloak was draped over Little Sandy's body. He called Zig, the captain of the magic students, and brought Zig's wand, and gave it to Sandy. in hand.

While dressing Sandy. Du Wei explained it quickly. Little Sandy was dumbfounded, but he didn't dare to go against Du Wei's intention. Can only reluctantly dress up.

Sandy's actual age is a little younger than himself, but after dressing up, I can't see much difference, and Sandy has become much stronger after coming to the Northwest these days. Although there are still many magic students under Du Wei, most of those guys are from the army, and the training these days has a bit of an army atmosphere on them. Only Sandy, after following him, learned a lot of rules and etiquette from old Made, after all, it is not easy to reveal his secrets.

"In a moment, you will do as I tell you."

After Du Wei finished giving instructions, he quickly walked to the farmhouse.

In the farmhouse, the red-haired monster was still guarding Muse. Muse was no longer so afraid, but she looked pitiful with disheveled hair, her head was stained with a lot of hay, and her face was still stained with tears.

Du Wei didn't bother to look at this kid any more, so he directly faced the red-haired monster and shouted, "Listen, I know you are the Witch King's pet, right?".

The monster nods.

"They're coming for you, out there. And you don't want to go back with them, do you?"

The monster immediately shook his head desperately, very resolutely.

"Then if you want to escape today, you can only choose to trust me." Du Wei quickly said: "Now I give you two choices: either, you kill this friend of mine now, and then you break out by yourself, even if you You can pass my level, but you can't pass the level of those shamans outside! The second option: You let go of my friend immediately, and then I will help you hide."

※#8226;

After a while, the two shamans from the grassland finally saw the Tulip Duke who had created a scene not long after he came to the northwest.

This "Lord Duke" was indeed as young as the rumors said. Just a teenager who didn't grow up. He looks quite handsome, but his body is a little thinner—huh. These nobles of the Roland Empire, who have lived in an environment as sweet as mare's milk since they were young, are not as tough as our prairie boys.

The two shamans glanced at each other, and both saw the disdain in their companion's eyes.

However, the young duke's every move is still in line with the etiquette and identity, the black cloak that symbolizes the status of a magician, and the walnut wand on his body. Both made the two shamans dare not underestimate them.

After all, the magicians of the Roland Empire are terrifying. The shamans on the grasslands are very knowledgeable.

Whether it was out of respect for the magician or the other party's title, the two shamans reluctantly got off their horses and made a minimum meeting ceremony in the grassland and mountains.

"My lord duke" smiled slightly, his smile was the standard aristocratic indifference.

"Two original guests." The 'Duke' said softly in a steady voice: "I am very surprised at your sudden arrival. However, with tolerance and kindness, I forgive you for not observing etiquette. And I hope to get your guarantee that such disrespectful behavior will not happen again. You know, even a nobleman should obtain permission from the master before visiting friends. Regarding your request... I personally respect the greatness of the grassland. I respect the Witch King deeply, but according to the imperial decree, I cannot allow your troops to enter the towns and villages under my jurisdiction. It is already wrong for you to come here! However, in order to show my friendship to the Witch King, I can make an exception..." Under Du Wei's instructions, Sandy, who pretended to be the Duke, did not give the other party any chance to intervene, and finished all the words in one breath: "I allow two shamans and wizards to enter this town with your attendants to find what you have. The lost monster mentioned. But according to the imperial decree, you can bring no more than ten attendants. Moreover, after the search here is over, I ask you to return to the grassland immediately! Otherwise, any actions you take will be regarded as Provoking the sovereignty of the Roland Empire."

After finishing speaking, Sandy didn't even give the other party a chance to speak, so he turned around and walked back to the town.

Du Wei stood aside, sneered, and looked at the two shamans with gloomy expressions: "Your Excellencies, please."

※#8226;

This is Du Wei's only best solution. Neither humble nor overbearing, without tearing your face. Faintly expressed his dissatisfaction and toughness.

And Du Wei's sense of proportion is not bad. At least it seems. The other party has no intention of tearing apart the Roland Empire - at least not now.

Nor did they expect to encounter the Imperial Army and Duke Tulip here. After all, it is not a big deal to bring thousands of cavalry into such a far-reaching place in the territory of another country without authorization. Not to mention small!

Although the two shamans were dissatisfied, they didn't say anything, and silently accepted the "Duke"'s decision.

Soon, they selected ten elite prairie warriors and led them through the ranks of the Longbottom cavalry into the town.

Without any suspense. They found nothing in this small town.

The two monsters have been received by Du Wei into the storage ring used by the magician. Although the two shamans searched the town carefully, they even took out something that interested Du Wei.

It was a piece of tortoise shell, as if it was divination. Several small irregular bones were thrown into the tortoise shell, and a few words that Du Wei could not understand were read—probably some kind of divination.

At that time, Du Wei was a little nervous, but then, the two shamans didn't seem to get any results from divination. .

It can be seen from their disappointed eyes that their divinations have yielded nothing. Du Wei was relieved.

The opponent left the town in dissatisfaction, and the three thousand prairie cavalry began to retreat slowly. However, Du Wei suddenly asked Longbottom to assign a hundred cavalrymen to "escort" the three thousand prairie cavalrymen along the way until they exited the northwest corridor and Duwei's territory.

The Biaohan cavalry on the grassland were very annoyed by this move, but the two shamans endured it and acquiesced to Du Wei's move. Order everyone to stay put. Therefore, Du Wei's hundred cavalrymen were about a hundred meters behind the prairie people's queue, and they watched them leave all the way.

After leaving Niuli Town, two shamans sat on their horses. Looking back at the distant town. The calm wizard suddenly said to his companion: "What do you think of that Duke Tulip?"

"Hmph, it's just a child." The irascible wizard dismissed it.

"That's right." The calm wizard smiled: "Indeed, although the rumors are powerful, but seeing you today...meeting is not as good as being famous." Then he paused, and suddenly sighed: "But the one next to him and us The young servant who speaks is well-founded, and his appearance is extraordinary. He is a very outstanding guy!"

※#8226;

Watching the prairie wolves go away, Du Wei didn't show any relief on his face. His face became more gloomy. Then immediately ordered: "Go back to Loulan City!"

He kept the two monsters in the storage ring. And Muse... After that kid was punished by Du Wei, he seemed to be completely afraid of Du Wei, and he stood far away and didn't dare to say a word to Du Wei.

After everyone set off on the road, Du Wei hooked Muse: "Come here!"

Muse seemed a little afraid, and walked cautiously to Du Wei: "You... what are you going to do?"

"Hmph! Have you forgotten what I said? Call me 'Master'!" Du Wei said viciously: "With me, you are not the young master of the Liszt family! You are just an ordinary person under my command! If you If you can't remember this, then you will suffer in the future."

"Yes... Your Excellency!" Muse gritted her teeth. His face was flushed, but he had to squeeze out these few words from his throat.

"Okay." Du Wei sighed: "Get on the horse, let's go back."

At this moment, Du Wei's face was suddenly full of exhaustion.

Muse looked at Du Wei's expression, and couldn't help but wonder: Does this villain have anything to worry about? An evil guy like him...

The whole journey was silent, Du Wei sat on the horse with his head bowed in thought, while Muse carefully followed behind Du Wei. Although he hated Du Wei so much in his heart, he still couldn't help but peek at Du Wei's back.

After a long time, about ten miles away, Du Wei suddenly turned his head and glanced at Muse: "Have you been looking at me?"

Muse was startled and was about to shake her head. Du Wei smiled faintly: "Don't deny it. I guess, you must have cursed me secretly in your heart just now, right? You watched me all the way behind me, did you still think about it in your heart, it's best to take advantage of my inattention?" , give me a sword in the back?"

Muse's face turned even paler, because at a certain time just now, he did show this kind of thought, but he immediately dismissed it when he thought of Du Wei's vicious appearance.

This guy... must be a devil! Otherwise, how could he have guessed what was in my heart?

Du Wei smiled lightly. There was a trace of indifference on his face. But in his eyes, it seemed as if he had already figured out something. There is a faint firmness.

"Muse, you hate me now because I hit you just now. And do you know why I hit you?"

Muse shut up and said nothing.

"Because you are stupid." Du Wei said unceremoniously: "Because of your stupid behavior, if any accident happens, it will bring a lot of trouble to me, yourself, and your family. ! And there will be many deaths and bloodshed. You say, are you stupid?"

Muse blushed again, but didn't speak.

"You hate it, whatever you want." Du Wei sneered: "I just don't understand, why do you hate me so much? It seems that you have been very unfriendly to me since we first met."

Muse lowered her head, Du Wei was silent for a while, and said suddenly: "Is it because of your sister?"

"...Yes." Muse replied in a low voice, with a hint of hatred in his voice.

After a pause, he suddenly raised his head, looked at Du Wei, and boldly said, "I started to hate you because I knew that Eldest Sister wanted you to marry Angel! I hate nobles like you, just like Eldest Sister used to That husband, that nasty noble old man. The eldest sister had to sacrifice herself to marry him for the sake of the family, but I know that she is not happy at all, and she has never been happy for a day! Fortunately, that bastard died early! But now, you Appeared... I think you are also a bastard! I don't want Angel to follow in the footsteps of the eldest sister and marry a hypocritical and hateful noble like you! You will only covet our family's wealth and use us!".

"But you are also using me." Du Wei said indifferently: "Isn't your sister also trying to use my position?"

"..." Muse gritted her teeth.

"That's why I said. You are stupid." Du Wei said lightly: "Fortunately, you are still young. Young people do some stupid things occasionally, and even God will forgive them."

"God?" Muse froze for a moment.

Du Wei realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, and he smiled lightly: "Oh, that's just an old bastard."

Then he looked at Muse and said in a deep voice: "Your stupidity lies in what you have done. It is impossible to improve the situation at all. On the contrary, it will make things worse. You obviously have good intentions. But Making things worse... isn't that what stupidity is? Smart people figure out how to make things better, and you... huh."

Muse snorted: "Then what about you? Why did you reject Angel again? Could it be that you really fell in love with my eldest sister?"

"Hahahaha..." Du Wei looked up to the sky and laughed, and then looked at this kid. After a long time, Du Wei stopped laughing, looked at this guy, and said lightly: "Poor guy. You are really pitiful, you Do you think I value the wealth of your Liszt family as much as others? Do you think everyone is as you imagined?"

Muse seemed to endure it all the way in her heart, and finally couldn't help asking at this moment: "You...what do you want? You seem to have rejected Angel, but at the banquet, you invited my eldest sister! And the eldest sister...you What do you want! You devil!"

Du Wei's eyes turned cold: "You probably forgot my order again?"

Muse seemed to be afraid of Du Wei's eyes, shrank her body, and lowered her head.

Du Wei was not angry, he suddenly sighed softly. As if talking to himself: "Yeah...what do I want..."

When I first came to this world, I was confused.

This kind of confusion, if you don't put yourself in the shoes, it is difficult for others to understand.

Before he "traversed", Du Wei had never heard of the term "traversal", at least he had read novels. Know the stories of those time travels.

But I really experienced it myself, but found that it was really different.

In those third-rate novels, it will be written that after the protagonist travels through time, he will immediately "accept" the facts. Oh yeah, I have time-traveled, Mom and Dad, I will be filial to you in my next life! Another world, my father is here, all the beauties in the world are mine...

Shit!

An adult...even if it's just someone who's just turned eighteen. Grow up to eighteen years old in your own world. Nature has its own goals, goals in life. Career goals, learning goals...and maybe this person has been fighting for his goals for many years!

Emotionally, you may have your own lover, and even if you don't, you probably have someone you are secretly in love with... Even if you don't have this one. Then at least there are parents who gave birth to you and raised you!

What does crossing represent? It means that there is a hand, without any resistance from you, with a gentle, just wave...all of this is wiped out! Nothing left!

The goal you have fought for for years is gone, and your years of struggle have become a pitiful joke!

Your kind parents, your beloved object, are gone! All these emotions are completely empty!

In those bullshit third-rate novels, as soon as you travel through time, you hug the thighs of other people's parents and call them mom and dad. The parents who gave birth to you and raised you in your original world forget about it in less than three minutes...

To say something unkind...shit! ungrateful!

※#8226;

What does Du Wei want?

To say the most truthful words: If! if you can! If God suddenly tells him now, you can go back! Then Du Wei will give up everything in this world without hesitation! What a shit duke, shit business! He will return to the world he is familiar with without hesitation!

What if you can't go back?

Then Du Wei's goal can only be the next best thing: he just wants to live a more comfortable and free life.

Thinking of this, Du Wei suddenly smiled.

The smile on his face was sincere and relaxed, and he slowly spit out a word:

"free. "

"What?" Muse didn't seem to hear Du Wei's words clearly.

"It's freedom." Du Wei's voice was very calm: "What I want is freedom. A free and quiet life, doing whatever I want, no one gives me too much pressure and comfort. Make yourself as comfortable as possible... just It's that simple."

"...It's that...simple?" Muse looked at the hottest young dignitary in the empire in surprise. Even idiots know that this guy's future is limitless... But he himself only wants to be free? .

"Aren't you free enough now?" Muse said mockingly.

"You don't understand." Du Wei shook his head.

free? Has the world really set itself free?

At the beginning, he pretended to be a fool because he didn't want to bear any family responsibilities (in Du Wei's view, what does family responsibility have to do with him?), so he would rather be assigned back to the hometown of the Luo Lin family.

In the imperial capital, he would rather offend Prince Chen than save old Lei Meng's life, because Du Wei felt that he wanted to do that, and if he didn't do that, maybe he could get greater benefits—but that would not be his own. I really want it! Then it's not me Du Wei! Du Wei only does what he wants to do... Freedom, it's that simple.

And now, the same is true for rejecting the Liszt family's marriage.

"In my opinion, my definition of freedom is: I can control my life as I like."

Muse is silent, perhaps at his age, it is still difficult to truly understand the meaning of these words at this moment.

"But this goal is really difficult to achieve." Du Wei sighed with a wry smile: "The world is like this, if you fall into a circle, you will inevitably be forced by things you don't like, and be pushed step by step Before... but I, just want to be free."

"With your current status, who else can persecute you? Doesn't Prince Chen also favor you?" Muse finally asked in confusion.

"Really?" Du Wei smiled: "Here, in the northwest... How many people are staring at me? The Northwest Army, Governor Bohan, they don't want to drive me out of the Northwest all the time. Those grassland wolves, hmph, they I'll bite you anytime, anywhere! Can I do anything I want in this place? My first priority is survival! Then everything else."

If I had enough strength, would that old Bohan fuck me once when he first came here?

If I have enough strength, would the Northwest Army dare to come to ask for money again and again, and secretly put grassland people in the defense line to make me look ugly?

If I had enough strength, today...those guys brazenly bullied me to my door, and I would have brought the army to beat them to the ground! ! !

In Du Wei's heart, he felt a little pathetic and even a little ridiculous.

Because of yearning for freedom, in order to achieve my goals, in order to achieve my goals...but being forced, I had to develop ambitions!

Isn't this a joke?

Du Wei knew very well that he was stimulated today. Stimulated by those prairie people. He understood that at this moment, something called "ambition" was thriving in his heart.

In order to allow me to control my life as I like in the future... During this process, any opponent who wants to hinder me or threaten me will be my enemy! !

Perhaps, the prairie people should regret it.

Because their actions today awakened a young man who was still a little dazed.

Du Wei suddenly became interested, sat up straight on the horse, and pointed to the vast wilderness in the distance with his hand holding the whip: "Muse, what did you see?"

Muse froze for a moment, looked into the distance, and asked tentatively, "Wasteland? Mount Kilimaro? Road? Woods...what the hell is it?"

Du Wei suddenly smiled, and said a word lightly, then he whipped his whip vigorously, and galloped forward.

"The world!"
