Chapter 223: High Priest
Wang Ji looked lightly at the flushed young priest in front of him and nodded. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's good that she's finally one step closer to her goal. If she didn't figure out the mystery of the inheritance of the Wu clan, how could she, who was in the blood of the great witch of the Wu clan, dare to be with Ah Che at ease, stay together and have children?
Ever since she wanted to solve the mystery of her mother's retreat and find out the truth about her own crossing, she has been trying her best to learn more about the secrets of the Wu clan. However, the Wu clan has always behaved strangely, and outsiders have always known little about it.
Although there is Wu Jing by her side, the other party has been away from the Wu clan for too long after all.
Forty years is enough to change too many things, besides, forty years ago, when Wu Jing left the Wu clan, her mother was not yet born. Therefore, what she knew from Wu Jing was no longer enough for her to judge the internal situation of the Wu clan now.
Therefore, she must find someone who is familiar with the situation of the Wu Clan, and can absolutely control it, to understand the current situation of the Wu Clan, so that she can act calmly in the future.
And this young priest named Wu Qizhang is undoubtedly a good candidate.
This person has just left the holy land of the Wu clan, and he is a priest trained by the top level of the Wu clan, and his status in the clan is not low, so he must know the internal situation of the Wu clan very well.
And this person was sent to such a remote area, presumably in recent years, he must have been excluded from the Wu clan and must not be reused.
Moreover, according to Wang Jiqing's observations in the past few days, this person is still young and enterprising, and he must not be willing to live in a corner forever, if this person knows his identity, I am afraid that he will immediately seize the opportunity and be loyal to him.
Therefore, her sentence "The big snake is good" in the morning caused this person to finally make up his mind and knock on his courtyard door.
"You get up first." Wang Ji glanced at Wu Jing, and let the other party retract the momentum of the high priest on his body, and then called Wu Qizhang, who was prostrate on the ground.
Lying on the ground, Wu Qizhang, who was panicked and surprised, only felt that the momentum of the other party pressing on him was inexplicably dispersed, he suddenly felt that his chest was loosened, and after a few deep breaths, he kowtowed to Wang Xi a few times, and then stood up tremblingly and stood aside.
"Qizhang, this is Jinggu, a witch servant by my side." Wang Ji pointed at Wu Jing beside him and introduced to the little priest with a smile.
Wu Qizhang raised his head, glanced at the thin old-timer quickly, and suppressed the horror in his eyes. It turned out that she was a legendary witch squire, no wonder she had the same momentum as the high priest of the clan.
"Junior Wu Qizhang, I've seen Lord Witch." According to the etiquette of the clan, Wu Qizhang made a salute to Wu Jing.
"Hmm." Wu Jing nodded, and retreated behind his master in silence.
"Qizhang, for some reason, I don't want others to know my identity for the time being." Wang Ji stared at the little priest in front of him, his voice was soft, and his eyes were clear, as if he could see the bottom of people's hearts.
"My subordinates understand, please rest assured." As a priest in the clan, Wu Qizhang also knew some of the secrets of the past.
The great witch who has been missing for twenty years in the clan suddenly appeared, and I am afraid that the secrets involved are not something that a small person like him can understand.
"Very good, in the future, you can follow me, just like Aunt Jing, and call me Miss." Wang Ji chuckled and nodded, it seems that this little priest is very obedient and obedient.
"Now, tell me about the current situation in the clan." Wang Jiqing did not hide it from the other party and continued. "I've never been to the clan, and Jinggu has been away from the clan for a long time, so we don't know much about the current situation in the clan."
"Yes, miss." Wu Qizhang's heart was turbulent. It turned out that the great witch had not returned to the clan yet, so when ....... thought of this, he quickly suppressed the horror in his heart and briefly said the situation in the clan in recent years.
"Miss, since the disappearance of the previous Great Witch twenty years ago, there has been chaos in the clan for several years. It wasn't until ......." said this that Wu Qizhang timidly glanced up at the girl opposite, and saw that the other party was not dissatisfied, so he continued.
"It wasn't until seventeen years ago that the Great Elder came out of retreat, saying that the Great Witch had fallen silent, and chose the witch servant of the clan at that time as the high priest to temporarily take care of the affairs of the clan."
"Wait." Wang Ji lightly frowned and interrupted him, "Didn't you say that there is a witch in the witch for the temporary generation of the great witch?" So who is this witch light coat? ”
"Miss Hui's words, there has never been a temporary generation of the Great Witch in our clan." Wu Qizhang hurriedly shook his head, how sacred the Great Witch is, how could there be a temporary person. "That's just a rumor from a foreigner."
"Lord Wu Qingyi is the sister of the previous Great Witch and her witch. Over the years, it was she who temporarily stepped forward to deal with the affairs of the clan. But ......"
"But what......" Wang Ji stroked the corners of his clothes indifferently, it seems that the high priest in the other party's mouth is his sister-in-law.
"But ......." Wu Qizhang hesitated a little, although Her Royal Highness the Great Witch did not explain her origin, but according to the inheritance of the clan, Lord Wu Qingyi should be the elder of her relatives, and he didn't know whether to say that Lord Wu Qingyi was not in front of the Great Witch.
"Go on." Wang Ji's face was calm and calm, even if she had already guessed that her aunt was not simple, but her face was not revealed.
I also know that she is just an ordinary high priest, and she was rumored to be a temporary great witch by the outside world many years later, and her aunt's mind is probably not small. But what about the elders of the clan? Do you just let her do whatever she wants?
"Yes, miss." Wu Qizhang nodded, and finally mustered up his courage. "Lord Wu Qingyi has been acting more and more unruly over the years. Especially after the news broke that the Holy Land had been completely closed to its people three years ago. ”
"The year before last, Zhao Pu, the Marquis of Jinghai, who had been staying in the capital, returned to Shuzhong, and when he went to meet her in the clan, he called her the Great Witch, and she even nodded her head in response."
"This Zhao Pu has been growing up in Beijing, so he doesn't know the rules of our clan, but Lord Wu Qingyi dares to accept it, this is obviously disrespectful to you......."
Because of this, many of the priests in the tribe, especially some of the old high priests, were very dissatisfied. They all asked Lord Wu Qingyi to plead guilty to the Holy Land and punish himself to the Holy Land. ”
"But my lord, she disdained this, and even afterwards, she secretly dealt with several high priests who were increasingly dissatisfied with her, and sent them to a remote mountain village to inspect the affairs of the clan, in order to prevent them from going to the holy place and expose her disrespect."
And her subordinate master, High Priest Wu Huan, was also sent by her to a remote mountain village in Shuzhong. Since then, Lord Wu Qingyi has been a little bit of a man in the clan. ”
"Therefore, in the past few years, under the propaganda of Jinghai Hou Zhao Pu, the world will think that Lord Wu Qingyi is the temporary great witch."
After speaking, Wu Qizhang stood silently aside and stopped talking. If it weren't for his own master being sent far away and losing his power in the clan, with his birth, he would not have been sent to this small mountain village anyway.
"You are Wu Huan's apprentice?" Wu Jing saw that the young lady nodded, and then glanced at the little priest in front of her, with a smile on her face.
Wu Huan is also her cousin in the next room, forty years ago, when she left the Wu Clan, that little girl was still serving by Elder Mingyue's side. I didn't expect that after so many years, the little girl back then was also the high priest.
In this way, this little priest can be regarded as the priest of their Dashi Village. (To be continued.) )
