The two of them looked at each other in silence, and each drank a lot of wine. Over the years, Nohara Huo had accomplished some things, but he still wasn't happy when he thought about it. What's more, the opponent he was fighting against now was his former friend.
Nohara Huo is a man of few words and has many worries in his heart. His popularity in Toad Village is even worse than that of He. There are very few people who can be called his friends. After all, Li Xingzai is the only one.
The enemies we fight for today are our friends who died in the past.
Nohara Huo raised his head and said: "Actually, I really want you to die in Li Xing's hands."
Li Xingzai was stunned and said: "I thought you were dead, but I didn't expect you to be still alive and kicking. It's a pity to think about it."
Nohara Huo smiled bitterly: "I thought I would die in Qingniu Mountain, but I didn't expect to survive. I was so confused at the time, who would have thought that I would end up in Toad Village again. I almost died in the hands of Toad Village, but later on, I was able to survive in Toad Village
I learned what I learned from Toad Village, and it seems that fate plays a trick on people. After I left Toad Village, I didn’t intend to do anything big. I just walked step by step to where I am today, but I was forced by the situation and couldn’t help myself.”
"I'm being humble. Who in the empire today doesn't know your name, Nohara Huo." Li Xingzai said slowly, "Many people have died in your hands."
Nohara Huo smiled, but his eyes were bright and clear: "Many people deserve to die. Even without me, they will die."
"I don't think anyone deserves to die."
Nohara Huo said: "Many people have died because of you, and you are not innocent."
Regarding this point, Li Xingzai neither denied nor admitted it. Even when Nohara Huo was with Li Xingzai before, he was a man of few words. Today, he was somewhat eloquent, and it was the first time that Li Xingzai knew his inner thoughts.
The reason why Nohara Hui talked so much today was that, firstly, there was no one around him to talk to. Secondly, he did have something to say in his heart.
After all, Li Xingzai was his only friend, and it remains the same even now.
Li Xingzai said: "Do you remember that once when you were seriously ill and we had no money, I stole a chicken to make soup for you."
"Of course I remember." Nohara Huo nodded. In today's status and position, he has never tasted any delicacies, but the support he received will be unforgettable for a long time.
Li Xingzai said: "You know that I am a generous person. After many years, I don't want you to repay me too much. You can withdraw your troops and go back to the grassland, and I will consider you to repay my kindness."
Nohara Huo looked at Li Xingzai like he was an idiot.
"You are so generous."
"Is it always like this?" Li Xingzai waved his hand casually.
Nohara Hui knew Li Xingzai's temperament very well. When they were hanging out together, it was Li Xingzai who was responsible for coming up with bad ideas, and it was Nohara Hui who was responsible for sneaking around and getting beaten up.
"Actually, this favor is not irrepayable." Nohara Huo said calmly: "You can retreat, I will grant you a land and let you become the king on your own, how about it?"
The smile on Li Xingzai's face slowly disappeared: "I thought you were a happy person, but I didn't expect you had such a big appetite."
Nohara Huo spoke directly to his heart: "Because you will definitely lose."
Li Xingzai's expression remained unchanged: "I don't think so."
"You and I have fought several battles, and you need five thousand men to stop me from three thousand. And I now have an army of one million, how many troops do you have? Even if you hold the city and hold it, how long can you hold it? Luo Feng
If the city is broken, there will be no danger to defend the south of the Yangtze River. If the war burns to the south of the Yangtze River, how long can you hold on?" Nohara Huo said slowly: "I promise you a life of wealth and glory, a small city of 100,000 people, you can be considered the king of a country, you
Wouldn’t it be great if I still have the opportunity to have tea and wine in the future?”
"If the outcome is calculated like this, then I really have to doubt your vision." Li Xingzai said: "You have been calculating over and over again, but it seems that you have not reached the northwest. At this time, Cheng Dalei should take action."
Nohara Huo was stunned. This was indeed a headache for him. The key was that he couldn't figure out Cheng Dalei's veins. If he really wanted to fight all the way, his current situation would be really embarrassing.
But in front of Li Xingzai, he naturally would not lose his prestige.
"We both know that Cheng Dalei is a difficult person to deal with. But no one knows what he is thinking until now. If he really wants to help you, why wait until now."
Li Xingzai smiled and said: "It's really difficult to deal with because it's elusive. Because you always have to make the best plan."
Nohara's face didn't change: "If there is 100% now, you only have 20% at most. It's not your style to place your hopes on outsiders. I just think of our past friendship and advise you to give up early. This
No matter in the world, you can’t compete with me.”
Li Xingzai was silent for a moment and said: "You told me something, and I also want to tell you something. When the Rong tribe invaded for the first time, I was in the northwest. At that time, the northwest defense line was lost. I wanted to be the sixth prince of the empire.
Do something to save the building from collapse."
"I heard you tell me about this. Later, you didn't accomplish anything. Instead, you were arrested as a liar."
Li Xingzai nodded and said: "At that time, I knew that there was no destiny at all. And what I want to do, whether destiny shines on me or not, I have to complete it."
A long time ago, Li Xingzai had the ambition to compete in the world. He stayed in Toad Village for a long time, observing everything around him with great concentration. He eagerly learned things he didn't understand, just so that he would have enough ability to cope with everything that happened.
When he first left Toad Village, everything was not going well, but he gradually gained military power and his own territory. In the process, he injured a leg, was treated as a puppet, and the Li family was humiliated...
It was extremely difficult for him to get to where he is today. Everything he gained was obtained with blood. How could he give up so easily?
The conditions offered by Nohara Huo were tempting enough, but for Li Xingzai, they were still too stingy.
Because what he wants is the whole world, not just one place.
Li Xingzai is like this, and Nohara Huo is almost the same. He has paid a huge price to get to where he is today. As soon as he closes his eyes, millions of dead souls are asking for debts, and the blood sea of Qingniu Mountain Corpse Mountain surges in front of his eyes.
Since everyone is the same person, naturally no one can convince the other. At this gambling table, they will empty out all their chips and put them all on the card game.
Either lose and lose everything, or win everything.
After a while, Nohara Huo stood up and said: "Next time we meet, we will be enemies of life and death. If there is a chance, I will spare your life."
Li Xingzai also stood up and said: "I will not show mercy to you. If I have the chance, I will definitely kill you. Not just you, I will kill all those who violate our empire."
