Sima Bingxin looked at the wooden barrel that was rising with steam in front of him, and was a little unable to react.
As a seed created by the combination of Sima Family and Jade Void Sect, Sima Bingxin's standard of living had always been high.
He had a bath specially made for his Jade Void Sect, and the scenery was extremely beautiful. Every time he entered the Immortal Spring, he would receive more than ten maids, some of whom would pour out fragrance, some of which would be scattered with flower petals. Every detail was specially designed by someone.
In comparison, this simple and crude barrel of burning firewood was really too inconvenient to look at … However, there was a sense of nostalgia.
When he was young, at home, especially during that time of war, not to mention taking a bath, sometimes drinking water was a problem. In order to make him happy, his mother and brothers once prepared a wooden bucket like this, allowing him to happily take a bath. Really happy...
Staring at the barrel in a daze for a few seconds, Sima Bingxin lifted her leg and slowly stepped into the bucket, letting her snow white body slowly sink into the water. The warm feeling spread over her shoulder, releasing all of the fatigue and burden from her body.
In the short span of two or three days, he had experienced many things. Not only danger, but also chaos.
The source of all this... It was still that mysterious man.
The image of the Fairy of Ice and Snow was extremely indifferent to everything, especially to men. In these past few years, there had been countless men who wanted to touch her, who were frozen, thrown out, and even had a nose full of dust. Not to mention touching her, there was no one who could even touch a finger for a few years.
Only he saved her and made her owe him a favor. Then, amidst all the chaos, she gave him her waist more than once and even slapped his butt again in front of everyone. Such frivolity, if it were any other time, he would have immediately killed her and …
Sima Bingxin raised his scallion like finger and pressed it against his lips. The image that flashed past her mind was of his lips moving back and forth in the box, and the moment their lips touched, that was … This was the first time she had such intimate contact with a man.
"..." My first kiss was actually given to such a man?
"..." I don't know who he is. Who the hell is he?
In a daze, Sima Bingxin pressed her hands to her lips, and her cheeks unconsciously flushed red. Looking down, she caught a glimpse of the snow white balls floating in the water, instinctively crossing her arms to cover her chest.
"..." A very good expression. Do you have anyone you like? "
A somewhat vigorous female voice came from behind him. The red-faced Sima Bingxin half sunk her face into the water and wanted to speak, but she accidentally drank half a mouthful of water.
"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm here to help you get water. Human girls are so nice. With such thin skin, you're so white and snow-like. I'm so envious of you guys …"
The one who called out was the wolf lady who served Sima Bingxin in her bath. She brought out a basin of cold water, scooped up a ladle and slowly added in.
Sima Bingxin was used to being served, but this was the first time being served by a wolf girl. Since young, beastmen had always been an enemy that could never be reconciled to their Sima Family. Both sides had irreconcilable enmity, and now that he had been served and bathed by the wolf girl, Sima Bingxin's entire body tensed up and entered into a state of preparation, his heart was in turmoil. He was afraid that he would not be able to hold back and kill the wolf girl immediately.
Her unusually tense body caught the attention of the wolf girl. She did not seem to take it to heart, but continued to smile as she helped the little beauty pour water and wipe her body.
"Don't be nervous, and don't be afraid. We are different from those who only know how to shout and kill. We won't harm you."
"Wh-who's scared? I'm not afraid, what are you orcs afraid of? Also, there's nothing different about you guys … It's all the same, all the Beastmen can kill, I have many relatives, and all of them were killed by you! "
Speaking of that, the old grudge started to rise, looking at the wolf head in front of him, Sima Bingxin bit her lips, quietly clenched her fist, and almost punched out.
The wolf lady did not pay much attention, she only smiled and said, "But you have also killed a lot of our compatriots. Before this, the entire northwest is our homeland. The people up there have all been killed by you. "
"That's because... "It's you guys who went first …"
Sima Bingxin did not like to argue, but if she wanted to refute, remembering the history in her mind, it would be hard to say.
In order to open the wasteland, Homo Clan had gradually expanded into the space between the two races. In terms of sequence, it was difficult to say whether or not Beasts had come to cause trouble first, "When our ancestors came to the wasteland, it was you who came here first to kill people, so it was your fault."
"Then... If we go to Homo Clan turf to open up an area of influence, will Homo Clan look on helplessly, or offer us assistance? "
"Of course not! I'll definitely kill all of you. " Sima Bingxin blushed slightly, but continued to speak with strength: "But that's because your ancestors tried to kill the Homo Clan first, so we can't tolerate you coming over now. Everything is your fault, it's your fault!"
Sima Bingxin herself also knew that even if there were no grudges between them, Homo Clan would never allow others to infiltrate their homes. In reality, even if it was just the two Homo Clan s themselves, no one would allow others to develop in their own territory.
But even if they knew this reality, they could not show weakness in front of the Beasts. Even if they were to argue, they had to let go of even an inch of land.
"..." However, if everyone says so and we're all going back in time, then there's never going to be an end to it. "
The wolf-woman said, "Everyone has to fight for reason, no one can take a single step back. The conflict can only last for a thousand years or ten thousand years, and in the end, only by erasing one side from the ground forever can it stop. Even if the victor was decided, how much would the victor be killed? How much did he have to pay? This way... Can it really be considered a win? "
When these words entered her ears, Sima Bingxin was startled. She suddenly felt that it was familiar, and following that, pieces of memories that she thought she had already forgotten surged into her mind.
"..." 'If we can't take this first step, put aside those who are right and wrong, those who are in first and those who are in second place, we will never be able to break this Eternal Spiral. It's not that we don't care about it, it's just that we want to fight for thousands of generations, not the speed that comes our way! '
This voice, accompanied by the gentle yet somewhat fervent image of a youth, suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
"..." Brother!
Breaking through the barriers of racial hatred was something he had been studying for his entire life. When he was still alive, people always laughed at him as a fool, but after he died, people would praise him as a hero or a hero, but no one was willing to bring up his thoughts.
People always remembered his "Iron Dazhang Cloud Pass, laughing and breaking the thousand army" style of a famous general, but avoided talking about his desire for different races to put down their force and seek the path of peace together, as if … It was a stain, a flaw in his heroic image.
Perhaps it was because of this that "Cang" would suppress the "peak". As time passed, the people of the world only knew that Wu Cangni did not give up on Xi Mei, and that it would forever be a pass for the clouds, but less and less people remembered the Sima Qiaofeng who carried a few silly scrolls and words on his face …
Thinking about her deceased brother, Sima Bingxin felt a burst of sadness, but she actually said the same thing as her brother before to this wolf girl she had never met. She was truly shocked, the hostility in her heart lessened by a bit, and she could not help but ask: "Don't laugh, don't you hate Homo Clan? Which Beastman didn't hate Homo Clan? Who taught you that? Yes... Your prince? "
"Un, he really hopes to build a world where humans and beasts coexist peacefully … We often hear him speak of such thoughts and look forward to the day. He … It was very good, but most of the clansmen didn't know that they... I like the way the first prince does things. "
The wolf girl's words made Sima Bingxin miss her brother more and more. Back then, he was also such a person, acting as if she was mocked by others.
Listening to thinking about people, Sima Bingxin's hostility lessened, and she said: "You … Did she really believe him? That prince, wasn't she just talking? "You guys …"
"Of course I believe it! "He is my husband, a woman. Would he not believe his husband?"
"What?" Husband? "
Sima Bingxin was shocked, she still held onto a strand of hope and said cautiously: "Your prince … Are there many wives? "
"The First Prince does not have a wife. Women who serve him usually do not live to see the light of day. My husband... There's only me, Werewolf Clan does not encourage marriage. "
The wolf girl smiled and spoke, almost causing Sima Bingxin to break out in cold sweat. According to what she said, the wolf girl in front of him was equivalent to the existence of a wangfei, even if her Beasts was not as respectful as humans, this wolf girl should still be incomparably noble. Why did she come to help him bathe? In order to entertain these esteemed guests, Prince Andrew had spent too much money …
"Then... Then you … "Then aren't you …"
Sima Bingxin spoke hesitantly, but the wolf lady did not mind.
"The materials required for Beasts are not good, how can you put on airs? Prince... It is also not as illustrious as your Homo Clan, he values you greatly and is unable to take out any good stuff, so it is only right that I do my best for him, I hope that you can help him a lot. "
"You … You must like him a lot... "I really envy you guys. If my brother could be like you, then …"
"You're also very good. Your husband and you seem to be very intimate and playful. You should be on good terms with him. You must also like him a lot, right?"
"Where is it?" You're wrong, but he's not... "Ugh!"
Sensing her slip of tongue, Sima Bingxin immediately covered her mouth, just as she was feeling awkward, she saw the curtain of the bathtub's door being pushed open in a corner, and two small wolf heads peeking in.
Thinking about her nudity, Sima Bingxin immediately sank into the bucket, only exposing her eyes above the barrel. She was too embarrassed to poke his face out, and wanted to ask which family's child this is from, when the two wolf kids looked over timidly and called out.
"Mother, can you tell us a story?"
