In front of Xiao Chenyu, Li Chunbo was completely exposed.
He did so without the slightest bit of precaution. He did it very naturally, without the slightest bit of reluctance. It was as if everything was supposed to be like this. Under such circumstances, even if the other party was not a Rain Grade Supreme Martial Artist like Li Chunbo, an Eighth Grade Supreme Martial Artist, or even a Seventh Grade Supreme Martial Artist would be enough to take Li Chunbo's life with one strike.
How many times in his life would someone as strong as Li Chunbo be so defenseless? Could it be that he didn't know that the current Xiao Chenyu was no longer on the same path as him?
Xiao Chenyu's sharp eyes kept watching him busy. His gaze became deeper and deeper. In the end, it was inexplicably covered by a thin layer of mist. He seemed to sigh softly, and a few ripples finally appeared on his calm face. Chapter 782: One Can Warm the Wine When Cold, But How to Warm the Heart When Cold? Yu Wennua smiled and said, "Let's do it together. It's faster this way. I haven't done this for a long time. Don't forget how to do it."
As he said that, he squatted down and started to fiddle with the dry wood. Two mid-grade Supreme Martial Artists, two of the top tyrants of the generation, just like that, one plucked the feathers from the chicken leg and the other got the dry wood, then mixed the seasoning and started the fire …
Throughout the whole process, they didn't use any of their cultivation at all.
They just swayed back and forth in front of each other's eyes. If either of them were to make a move at this time, they would have absolute confidence in killing the other. There was no difficulty or risk at all!
However, the two of them were busy from beginning to end, as if they couldn't care about anything else at all. They threw themselves wholeheartedly into the big project of barbecuing.
And their expressions were very solemn and dignified.
When the fire finally rose into the sky. These two tyrants ended up with smoke all over their bodies. There were inevitably a few more stains on their usually dignified faces. They looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Then, the two of them didn't care about their image at all. They directly sat down in the snow and gently fiddled with the fire in front of them. Shoulder to shoulder, the two of them were very focused and didn't say a word. Chapter 782: One Can Warm the Wine When Cold, But How to Warm the Heart When Cold? They were fully focused on turning the chicken leg. Sprinkling seasoning, occasionally stirring the fire and putting some dry wood.
Just like back then. Thousands or tens of thousands of years ago, there were two teenagers who were in the same situation as they were now. They were barbecuing themselves in a sorry state. Perhaps it was because they were careless, or perhaps it was because the other party was playing tricks on them. They smeared their faces and bodies like dirty little kittens. However, their hearts were filled with happiness. They had no grudges and were carefree and happy.
Everything was silent except for the sound of snowflakes falling from the sky. There was also the crackling sound of dry wood burning.
Waves of fragrance wafted in the air. The snowy chicken drumstick was already half-cooked. The two of them seemed to be really good at barbecuing.
The two of them, who were focused on roasting the meat, still did not speak. They seemed to be very patient, and also seemed to be enjoying the process as they continued to work hard.
After a long, long time.
A voice broke the silence, "Second Brother. Do you remember that you were the one who taught me how to barbecue? That year, you were fifteen and I was thirteen. "
Xiao Chenyu's usually deep and clear eyes actually showed a trace of mistiness. He subconsciously laughed mischievously, "Yes, at that time. Our parents' generation … were all missing. The two of us who lost our fathers at the same time got together for a period of time. At that time … hurhur … "
"At that time, it was really good … We were like brothers to each other." There was the warmth of reminiscence in Li Chunbo's eyes. "Who would make others so anxious before they knew it? I still remember when I was being hunted down by that Human Butcher with a Thousand Hands, but Second Brother, you brought people to save me. The brothers fought together … hurhur … At that time, Big Brother hadn't gone missing yet, right …"
"Yes … Big Brother hadn't gone missing yet …" Xiao Chenyu echoed almost subconsciously. Suddenly, he asked, "You're talking about …"
Li Chunbo said softly, "I'm talking about … Big Brother! The real Big Brother is not Ye Chenchen. "
There was reminiscence in Xiao Chenyu's eyes. "If Big Brother was still around, I believe that our big family would definitely not have reached this stage today … But Big Brother's whole family went missing for no reason …"
Li Chunbo chuckled. "It's rare for brothers to gather together. Why bring up those troublesome things? I should be punished, Second Brother."
Xiao Chenyu laughed. "It's indeed Second Brother's fault. I'll punish myself with one cup later. If one cup isn't enough, I'll punish myself with three cups."
Li Chunbo chuckled. "There's enough wine today. Second Brother doesn't need to take the opportunity to cheat us to drink …"
Xiao Chenyu rolled his eyes. "You little … Is your Second Brother that kind of person?"
Li Chunbo smiled cheekily and said, "Of course Second Brother isn't that kind of person. You've always just done and not said …"
The two of them chattered endlessly and started to talk about some of the interesting things that happened when they were young, or exposed each other's shortcomings. They laughed loudly from time to time. You patted my shoulder with your dirty hand, and I ruffled your hair. Both of them were monster-level old men who were more than 10,000 years old. At this moment, they were laughing as innocently as babies. They were so happy that they were like two innocent children.
It was just that happiness, even if they laughed for a while and laughed for a long time, was ultimately not the only happiness in life.
No matter how many interesting things there were, there would always be a moment when they were done talking.
Finally …
"I seem to have forgotten when it started … We all started to go into seclusion and started to work hard. Improving our cultivation became the most important goal in our eyes …" Li Chunbo chuckled. "When we completed one goal and came out, we realized that the clan had already become a huge entity. Our initial goal was no longer enough, so we continued to go into seclusion and continue to improve. I really don't know how many times we went into seclusion. When we came out of seclusion, all of us brothers missed each other. Ye Chenchen personally sent a letter to invite all of us brothers for a gathering. I still firmly believe that that time, that gathering didn't have any utilitarian motives. Second Brother, do you believe that?! "
Xiao Chenyu sighed. "I do … I also believe it. But when we got there, we realized that all of us had changed. All of us had become very scheming and shrewd. Some of the jokes that we were used to and had become natural could no longer be made. Therefore, our interactions with each other became less and less because none of us knew how to speak to our brothers anymore. Should we use diplomatic language? Then we might as well not say anything … "
"But that time, we were still dead drunk and went our separate ways happily. Everything was revealed without saying anything. It was also a happy thing," said Li Chunbo softly.
"And during the second gathering, there seemed to be more interactions, but no one dared to get drunk anymore. That time was at my house …" Xiao Chenyu shook his head and sighed softly.
"The third gathering … I remember that Lan Buhui and Chen Yingfeng got into a fight. That time was at the Ling Clan … They beat the Ling Clan into a pulp. In a fit of anger, Ling Muyang chased the two of them out. Everyone, everyone parted on bad terms. That was probably the last gathering of all of us brothers …"
Li Chunbo was rather taken aback. He said, "Yes, ever since then, we haven't gathered all of our brothers together. And now, Lan Buhui is actually already dead …"
Xiao Chenyu sighed softly. "We can't gather anymore …"
Li Chunbo looked up at the sky and sighed. "Yes, we can't gather anymore. There won't be any more opportunities for us brothers to gather together …"
The two of them stopped what they were doing at the same time. Their eyes were fixed on the flying snow in the sky, lost in thought.
"I don't know when it started … Our clans started scheming against each other. Originally, that was something that was very hard to imagine. In fact, I didn't even believe that such a day would come. That day …" Li Chunbo frowned rather sadly. "When exactly did it start? Second Brother, do you still remember? "
Xiao Chenyu patted him on the shoulder. "How can I not remember? It was that time 8,400 years ago? That time, Ye Chenchen let you down. I know everything about that matter from beginning to end. But … I didn't care. "
Li Chunbo broke into a smile and said, "Second Brother, you remembered wrongly. It wasn't 8,400 years ago. It was 8,530 years ago on the fifth day of the tenth month! Second Brother, that day was my birthday. "
Xiao Chenyu was silent for a while. Then, he used his hand to fiddle with the drumstick and said dispassionately, "The drumstick isn't done yet. Let's not talk about those things of the past."
Li Chunbo chuckled and said, "Since it's something of the past, there's no harm in talking about it. It was from that time, from that day onwards, that everyone suddenly realized … that one could also scheme against each other and bully each other … If Li Chunbo could tolerate it, then who else could? Who else could I bully? And so, chaos finally appeared … "
Xiao Chenyu said again, "Don't talk about it. I said don't talk about it."
Li Chunbo smiled. "Second Brother and Ye Chenchen are good friends. If you don't want me to talk about it, then I won't talk about it." Then, he chuckled and said, "The drumstick is done. It's finally done. I can finally taste Second Brother's culinary skills again. I was still doubting whether there would be such a day."
Xiao Chenyu raised his face and tilted his head up fiercely. He opened his mouth wide and faced the sky to welcome the falling snowflakes. His eyes, however, were tightly shut. His face was still as calm as the sea.
His throat was bulging so clearly, like a chicken waiting to be slaughtered. It was as if anyone would be able to cut it with a knife.
Li Chunbo looked at his throat and smiled. "Second Brother, you're still my Second Brother. This will never change."
Xiao Chenyu's Adam's apple bobbed up and down. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva. His smile was somewhat miserable. "Aren't you my brother too? Will it change?"
The spicy, fragrant, and crispy roasted snow drumstick was placed on the table, giving off a rich fragrance.
However, the wine that was still warm just now had already turned cold. In fact, it had even condensed into one in the wine cup.
Xiao Chenyu was a little stunned. He said, "The wine has turned cold. Let me warm it up. "
Li Chunbo shook his head somewhat sadly. He said, "The wine can still be warmed when it turns cold, but can the heart still be warmed when it turns cold?"
Xiao Chenyu was taken aback. He said subconsciously, "No."
Li Chunbo smiled, as if he didn't want to talk about this topic anymore. He said evenly, "Since we're in the northwest, let me warm the wine." He reached out and held both cups of wine in his palms. His hands actually trembled a little as he said, "It's really cold!"
Would a low-grade Supreme Martial Artist care about a piece of ice? How cold could it be if it was really cold?
However, Xiao Chenyu continued in a deep voice, "It's really cold."
