Chapter 1331: Entrustment
"What you just said was all used to coax and comfort everyone, right?" I turned my head to the side and whispered to the High Priest.
"It's not a deception, it's just a guess," said the High Priest, squirming his lips in a faint voice that only I could hear, "and I do see the future of all the girls present, except that their future is closely linked to yours. ”
"You said before, you can't see my future," I pouted, "I guess you can't see their future either." ”
The High Priest smiled, "Of course I can see clearly. ”
"Huh?" I felt a little uneasy: "Then why can't you see my future clearly, but you can see them clearly?" ”
"Because between their present and the future that is entangled with you, there is a future of their own," the High Priest said slowly, "I can see this future clearly. ”
Hearing this, my heart was a little relieved, and at the same time, a slight surprise hit my heart: "Are you saying that in the future, they will really marry me safely?" ”
"Didn't I just say that their future will become vague once they are entangled with you," said the High Priestess, "So, I can't be sure, but the only thing I know for sure is that they do have an inseparable relationship with you." ”
Speaking of this, she sighed slightly: "Take advantage of it, child, as long as you don't die in this war, the fate of these girls will not be implicated, for your wedding, live, and try to end the war in your own way." ”
I don't know if I'm really strong enough to control my fate, but I'll try to try, just as I did when I was in a near-death state and tried to crawl to the door of Old Man Taylor's house in order to survive.
......
......
After all, it was the residence of the high priest, and although the previous topic caused some uproar, it quickly subsided.
The food here is simple, and although Barbara is slightly disappointed that she doesn't have delicious white fish, the all-you-can-eat all-you-can-eat black beef jerky still makes her smile again.
The meal was eaten for a long time and everyone was well fed.
Before leaving, the high priest said, "Although I cannot give you the privilege of freely entering my room, I allow you to come to my mansion at any time when you are in trouble, wait and tell me...... After I'm done with things. ”
"Thank you," I saluted.
After buying dinner, I went home and handed it to Florence and the hostess, who were sitting on the sofa waiting.
Taking the bag, the proprietress smiled and said, "How is it, is the food entertained by the high priest rich?" ”
I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Truth be told, the High Priest's hospitality is lavish, but most of them are vegetarian. ”
"There's only one kind of meat dish, black beef jerky," Barbara continued, "but it's delicious, it's much worse than white fish." ”
"But then again, what does the chief priest look like?" Billy said excitedly: "Is it really like the rumors in the neighborhood that he has three eyes and can see everything in the world?" ”
"Who told you High Priest that you look like that!" Cagalli was dissatisfied: "Tell me, who said it, believe it or not, I smashed him flat with a war hammer!" ”
"The president spares my life, I didn't say it, don't beat me" Billy said miserably, "I'm innocent!" ”
......
......
While everyone was talking and laughing, I walked slowly over to Old Man Taylor, moved a chair and sat down.
"Have you seen the High Priest?" Taylor said without lifting his eyelids.
"Hmm."
"Did you mention anything about me?"
"Yes."
"What did she say?"
"She didn't say anything, just made me a pot of tea."
"That's good tea!" Taylor sighed: "But the precious items I brought out from the ancient tomb, I'm afraid I can't find a few copies in the entire Zephyr Continent!" ”
"No wonder that tea tastes a little earthy," I said casually.
"Nonsense" Taylor rebuked me, "That's the ancient fairy empress's tribute tea, you can't find that kind of tea on the mainland, that kind of tea is of excellent quality, even if it lasts for thousands of years, it will not be infected by the soil, how can it have an earthy taste!" ”
"It turned out to be the fairy queen's tribute tea, no wonder it tastes so good" I immediately changed the style of painting, and said: "However, you said that you can't find it on the mainland, does it live in the sea?" ”
"Have you ever seen a tea that lives in the sea?" Taylor asked.
I shook my head.
"That's it," he said leisurely, "The reason why I said that I can't find that kind of tea on the mainland is because it grows in a special environment." ”
"What's so special?" I can't help but ask.
"It lives in the depths of the Elven Forest," Taylor said, "and the more treacherous the place, the more this tea grows." ”
I wondered, "Have you been to the depths of the Elven Forest?" ”
"Haven't been," Taylor said.
"Then how do you know that this tea is there, and the more dangerous it is?"
Taylor raised his eyelids and glanced at me, "Nonsense, of course the current Fairy Empress told me. ”
"That's right...... Nani? I was shocked: "You actually took the fairy queen to steal the tomb of her ancestor?" ”
"What a fuss," Taylor said, "she didn't say anything, what are you surprised about?" ”
"Yes," I nodded.
Taylor is right, people didn't say anything about robbing their ancestors' tombs, so why should I bother with that~
"By the way, old fellow," I said, "can I ask you about it?" ”
"Say."
"I hope you can take care of my family for me."
"Why are you so heavy?" Taylor frowned: "As if arranging the aftermath." ”
"Well, it doesn't count."
"Bastard boy" Taylor opened his eyes and said lightly: "Don't mess around with everything, I'm still waiting for you to give me a pension." ”
"I won't, it's just ......"
Looking around, everyone was either engrossed in eating or chatting, and no one paid attention to me, so he relieved himself and said, "The high priest told me that the war was about to start. ”
"Is there anything strange about that?" Taylor said: "The Zephyr Continent will ignite a war every once in a while, do the math, the last war was a few decades ago, and after being stable for so long, it is time to start a new round of war." ”
Looking at Taylor's face, I couldn't help but laugh: "Look at your expression, it seems that you are very eager for war!" ”
"I don't want war," Taylor said, "but if there is peace for too long, there will inevitably be war, and after war there will always be peace for a long time, so I hope that war will come sooner, and then, won't peace come sooner?" ”
Sighing, I couldn't help but say, "Your words are always weird, but they sound so reasonable, I don't even know whether to listen to you or not, but what about what you haven't promised me yet, try to help me take care of my family, okay?" ”
"Well, I can promise you," said Taylor, "but tell me first why you said such a thing, it's not at all in your character!" ”
