Wizards of the North

Bran feels a little trouble now, and it's a big trouble, he doesn't know how to teach ancient trees. If you tell the ancient tree not to hurt others, you are afraid that this wooden head will suffer; if you teach him that you will get revenge, you are afraid that he will eventually cause an unmanageable disaster.

Bran thought about finding a few friends to play with the ancient tree, so that he would be familiar with the way people communicate. But listening to the sledgehammer on his head and looking at the torch in front of him, he could only sigh.

Now he has set some unreliable rules for ancient trees, for example, the rules for strangers:

(1) What if someone beats you?

Beat him, beat him to death!

(2) What if someone scolds you?

Hit him until he shuts up.

(3) What if someone is malicious to you?

Hit him until he is not malicious.

...

Others such as family rules, guest rules, etc., Bran is constantly improving.

With the improvement of the code, Bran I discovered that if you act according to the code, there are only two possibilities: either kill others or be killed by others.

In order to go out and not be beaten to death, Bran’s daily practice with the ancient tree began to grow longer and longer. Gushu still couldn't understand Bran's painstaking efforts, but was more and more satisfied with Bran's performance. He only hoped that this kind of life would go on forever. Therefore, in order to express his good mood, the ancient tree's sledgehammer wielded more and more forcefully.

...

After the white robes had the first success story of facing fear directly, they became a little crazy. The spirit became a little abnormal, and he began to be suspicious. Everyone hopes to find the weakness in their heart, guessing, questioning, and disproving. No one in the white robes thinks that they are fearless now, they must be afraid of something. Even the white robe whose embers had not disappeared thought he had more fears, waiting to be discovered.

They must find out before they can face these directly.

When a group of wizards with extraordinary abilities confronted their own fears, all kinds of unthinkable tricks to death also occur. Some people dare to jump into the fire, so naturally some people dare to jump into the water. Before freezing, after being salvaged by someone, he came to a very correct conclusion. He is not afraid of water, but cold...

This winter, for Northland City, is destined to be a lively and happy season. Bran felt that he was not building a wizarding city, but a mental hospital. He can't ask too much for patients, as long as they don't kill people.

The collective spirit of the white-robed wizards is abnormal, and they have contributed a new entertainment project to the residents of Northland City. In order to occupy a good position, many people spontaneously began to help the white robe. Even when the white robe asked to be buried alive, they could happily fill in a shovel of soil.

Even some residents who had moved out of the city ran back after hearing the wind. Just to have some fun in this boring cold winter.

Pachu is ready to remind his companions to pay attention to manners. But in the face of so many free labor, he hesitated. It is a penny that stumps the heroes, they are too short of manpower. And this is not their intention to hire, but the mutual assistance between neighbors, presumably it does not violate the purity of the initiation ceremony. When Pachu thought of deceiving himself, he dispelled the reminder.

...

There are so many people and powerful, although he reported to have fun, he got to the Baipao station. But the joyful atmosphere did not affect people's work enthusiasm, on the contrary, the work efficiency has been quite high.

The white robes also wanted to understand, and they worked out tricks every three minutes to show their abilities, so that everyone kept a sense of freshness.

The wind controller in the white robe made a difficult decision today. He has already found his fear, but he has been unable to make up his mind to face it. He must push himself into a situation where he cannot retreat. He announced to everyone that he will perform today.

He tried to control his trembling legs and carefully climbed up the scaffolding. He has to climb to the highest point, and then jump down, the wind will protect him, always. It's just that he has been scared, what if?

Yes, what if?

People looked at this white robe, trembling, moving upward a little bit, making the viewer feel anxious. At first, people watched happily, but gradually became worried.

Yes, worry.

...

Bran is not a good man, but he is very lenient with the residents of the territory. He neither deceives men or women, nor takes advantage of them by accident. The former is because the age has not reached, and the male hormones have not been secreted in large quantities; the latter is because these people are his private property, if you want to increase production and maintain value, you can't be too harsh.

But Bran is like a demon in people's eyes. Bran’s impression is always cold and bloodthirsty. The way he handled things several times, except for killing, it was killing. Especially in the Sandstone City incident, even his caravan was affected.

The residents here love and fear him. He is not only a guarantee for people's safety, but also a threat to people's safety. Everyone was worried that he would be hurt by the aftermath he accidentally made.

Even with that, he was deeply wary of the new white robe. There are not many secrets in Northland City, except for the great wizard Bran, that is a taboo for everyone. People have long known from the population like Yier that they are a group of powerful wizards. Although it cannot be compared with the Great Wizard, it is not comparable to the aboriginal wizards in the city.

After the initial observation, people found that these white robes lived a bit miserable, and they could even be called distressed. After that, they even had a sense of superiority. The living conditions of the white robe wizards are not as good as ours!

After the comparison, the vigilance of the white robe also disappeared. They didn't think about why Baipao could enter and leave the city and meet Bran directly. They only found a trace of identity through daily life comparisons. Give birth, maybe I should help them with ideas.

People even began to pity, thinking that Bran was too harsh on these white robes. Although they know, this is a test.

After getting along for a while, people found that the white robe was just like them, just like the aboriginal wizard in Northland City, no different. There are also all kinds of small vices and all kinds of careful thinking.

It wasn't until the white robes collectively fell ill that they showed their differences from ordinary people. It's just that this difference is really welcome. Winter swimming, burial alive, and so on, all tricks to death, but just can’t die...

They finally saw the joys and sorrows of the wizards. I see, this group of people is struggling to pursue it. At the same time of joy, bitterness also follows. They also gradually realized what these wizards gave up in order to pursue them.

...

The scaffolding is not very high, more than ten meters in height. But everyone can see how difficult it is for the white robe that is climbing.

People watched him finally move to the top, watched him slowly turn around, for fear that he would accidentally fall. It seems that he has forgotten that he was meant to jump off.

"The wind will protect me." White Robe said softly, then let go of his hand.

...

The cheers from the Baipao resident once again frightened Bran. But he has learned the lesson, and at the moment of loss of mind, people have already retreated far away.

He dropped the knife in his hand and looked over there. A person is wrapped in the wind, suspended high in the sky. Below are the remnants of Beidi City, cheering for him and shouting for him.
