Chapter 30 He is a flower, you are a maggot
Hearing Bai Wei's voice, Ulu immediately stood up like a spring, and the confusion on his face instantly turned into nervousness.
Bai Wei remained silent for such a long time that Ulu almost forgot his existence.
"V-Lord Visas." He tried hard to dispel the emotions in his heart and refocused his attention. "You, what did you just say?"
Bai Wei chuckled. He didn't mind repeating it, and was even happy to do so: "I'm asking, what are you afraid of?"
"Scared? How is that possible?" Ulu subconsciously wanted to deny, "He's just a little bastard, why should I be afraid of him?"
"Oh? Really?"
Bai Wei naturally refused to let him go at this time. He tried to straighten his body, and then Ulu saw that his left hand was forcibly pulled in front of his eyes by the unique middle finger, forcing him to look directly at his middle finger.
Wu Lu subconsciously wanted to look away, but under pressure from Bai Wei, he did not dare to do so and could only endure it.
"You are very nervous, very nervous." Bai Wei said calmly, "I can hear your heartbeat. You are more nervous now than when you killed your old boss, more nervous than when you faced the Knight Commander, and even more nervous than when you met the secret cultist last night and your life was in danger. This kind of nervousness should be classified as fear, right?"
Facing the "evil god" who could hear his heartbeat directly, Ulu felt that every word he said was a little powerless, but he still refuted: "No, that's not the case. I didn't act scared just now. There is nothing about that little devil that can scare me."
"Oh?" Bai Wei asked with interest, "If it's not fear, then what is it?"
Ulu pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
If it were usual, he would never have the courage to remain silent in the face of Bai Wei's questions, but now, he didn't want to speak, he really didn't want to speak.
So he really ignored Bai Wei, just got up from the ground, and then walked straight into the town, as if he wanted to concentrate on walking.
Faced with such "disrespectful" behavior, Bai Wei was neither anxious nor annoyed, but he did not stop either. He continued to speak slowly and leisurely: "Actually, I'm quite curious, Uru, what kind of person were you before you became a priest? Can you tell me?"
Ulu pretended not to hear.
"I heard that the low-level priests of the so-called four major orthodox religions are mostly selected from local orphans. I guess you are one of them, too? Well... As far as I know, this place also experienced a famine twenty years ago, and it was on a larger scale than this time, with more people dying. And you became a priest twenty years ago, so..."
Ulu's body trembled slightly, and there was a very obvious panic in his eyes.
This emotion was naturally caught by Bai Wei. He "smiled slightly" and knew that he had guessed it right.
"It seems that what I said was right." Bai Wei said, "When you look at that little ghost, it's like you are looking at... your past self."
"No!" Ulu stopped immediately and stared at the middle finger of his left hand. "I'm different from him! I'm different from him!"
Seeing Wu Lu suddenly become excited, Bai Wei knew that his words touched his heart. Since the first night, Wu Lu never dared to disobey Bai Wei again, let alone get emotional, he didn't even have the courage to refute, but now?
For Bai Wei, the following conversation is the key. How to make Ulu fall deeper into this pit requires careful consideration.
So he chuckled and said, "Ah, don't get excited. Of course I know that you are different from him. You and he are two different people."
Wulu thought that Bai Wei recognized him, and subconsciously wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but then he heard Bai Wei say: "That kid is just a goody-goody who knows nothing and even has an unrealistic naivety and kindness. But you are different. You are a bad person, and the lowest and most corrupt kind of bad person."
Ulu's expression suddenly turned ugly, but Bai Wei seemed not to notice and continued talking.
"That child doesn't want to steal other people's food even if he can't eat, but you keep looking at other people's food even if you are full. That child wants to become a priest and do things for others, but you will only let others do things for you after you become a priest. The only thing you and that child have in common is that you both have no mother... You are both orphans. You are like two sides of the same coin, both of you came out of the mud, but he is a flower, and you..." Bai Wei paused, and when Wu Lu's body was shaking slightly because of anger, he chuckled and finished the second half of the sentence, "You are a maggot."
"He smells good, you stink."
"So my description just now is also wrong. Your previous behavior was indeed not fear, but... inferiority. You saw that he also came out of the mud, but he was spotless. You came out of the mud, but... there was no clean place. So you were angry, you had inferiority complex, so you punched and kicked him, and that's why you tried your best to escape from there."
Bai Wei stopped only after finishing a series of verbal attacks.
At this moment, Ulu's face was as pale as paper, and his body was shaking and shaky.
"Why, why do you say that to me..."
Bai Wei didn't say anything, but just observed Ulu quietly.
"What right do you have to say that to me?" The next second, Ulu suddenly exploded. He grabbed Bai Wei's body tightly with his right hand. His eyes looked like he wanted to kill him. "Do you understand me?! Do you really understand me?!"
"What do you mean he's a flower and I'm a maggot? What do you mean he's a good guy and I'm a bad guy?! Do you think I want to be a bad guy?!"
"When he was about to starve to death, it was me who gave him food! It was me who gave it to him! I didn't do anything to him! What about me? When I was about to starve to death, I met that fucking old asshole Luggie! For that little bit of food, I had to accompany him for a whole night! Do you know how I got through that night?! Do you know?!"
"That's fine, but when I went back with the food, my mother...my mother was already dead! She was already dead in bed! Just like that little devil's mother, she died in bed!"
"But what about that little brat? When his mom died, I was able to help him bury her! Who came to help me when my mom died? Why didn't anyone come to help me? Why?!"
He seemed to have reached his limit, yelling hysterically at Bai Wei like a mindless beast.
"I want to be a good person! I also want to be a good son! I also want to be a good priest! But who gave me a chance? Who gave me a chance? Tell me!"
After saying these words, he seemed to have lost all his strength, and fell to his knees again, muttering to himself.
"I also want to be a good person, but there is no chance, really no chance."
Looking at the distraught Ulu, Bai Wei nodded slightly.
Very good, it's all said.
Next, all that’s left is…
…
In a house fifty meters away from Uru, a knight gently patted another knight on the shoulder.
"Notify Lord Kelce that we have found our target."
Then, he slowly drew out his sword, and the sword reflected the knight's cold eyes, which were colder than the heavy snow twenty years ago.
