Arrive at the sanctuary

Xie Chonggui finally fell asleep, although Yu Siqi knew very well that he would most likely wake up in pain not long ago, after all, he was so badly injured, if he wanted to say that it would not cause pain, it was almost tantamount to laughing. -Pineappleโˆฎ โˆฎ small-said that in the absence of anything, they couldn't even get the saline solution to clean the wound, so they had to put it aside for the time being.

Father An, whose hands were stained with blood, was washing his hands in the basin at this moment, while Gong Chen dug his pockets again, hoping to find something useful. Wan Jie, who had been silent, suddenly stood up and walked towards the entrance of the cave. Yu Siqi, who noticed her, couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?" โ€

"Staying here will only add more sadness, I've rested, it's time to do my part."

Wan Jie, who was about to reach the entrance of the cave, stopped and turned around and said.

"Are you going to try your luck at that so-called 'sanctuary'? The guy who had thought about it before has just fallen asleep. โ€

Father Ann wiped his hands with a dry towel and spoke to her in a calm tone.

"I'm afraid we don't have a choice, Father."

Wan Jie said very calmly.

"There's always a choice, and... We really don't want to add any more wounded... You know what I mean, right? โ€

Father An confessed his inner concerns, which made Wan Jie slightly moved, she turned away and said, "I appreciate that you care about me so much, but don't you think that I am the only one who can withdraw from it right now?" โ€

"Not really."

Yu Siqi didn't know why he wanted to answer this sentence, but since the words were spoken, he simply stood up.

"Sit down."

Father Ann said lightly.

"I refuse."

Yu Siqi insisted.

"I said, sit down!"

For the first time, Father Ann was angry with Siqi, though he quickly restrained his anger and tried to make his expression less terrifying. However, Yu Siqi was still somewhat affected by him. For a moment, his knees went limp, and he wanted to sit down. It was the stubbornness in his heart that supported his will and body, and he survived.

"I'm sorry, Father. I can't be so indifferent anymore, Ah Zhen and Ah Gui are people we cherish each other. No one wants them to have any 'accidents'. โ€

When Yu Siqi said this in a rather tough tone, in fact, a little sweat was already oozing from his back.

"Are you sure you want to do this? You know, I may not be able to be with you anymore this time. โ€

Father An stared into Yu Siqi's eyes and looked at it for a long time before he said slowly.

"I'll be careful myself, and to be honest, I'm not alone, isn't there Wan Jie."

Yu Siqi looked at Wan Jie, who was still standing at the entrance of the cave, who hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly. So, the two of them left together under the watchful eye of Father Ann. In the time they left the cave, Yu Siqi was sure that he heard Gong Chen's complaint to Father An: "Why do you want Xiao Xiao to take this risk!" โ€

It's a pity that they left after that, so I didn't hear Father An's answer clearly, but I guess it was probably 'forced to do so' or something like that.

Stepping back on the steps was actually a little emotional for Siqi, who knew how rebellious his actions had just been to Father An; also understands that the choice he made is likely to be a very bad thing, after all, even a 'strong man' like Xie Chonggui can't get out of it. But he still chose the same path as Wan Jie, which may be the so-called 'knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, and preferring to go to the tiger mountains'.

No matter what, his appearance makes Wan Jie's future no longer lonely. So when she climbed the mountain with her, she deliberately said 'thank you' with a smile, but unfortunately their relationship can only stop here at present.

Because the air in the mountains is relatively thin, Yu Siqi and Wan Jie don't have much free time to communicate along the way. Their only thought right now was to get to the sanctuary as soon as possible and find anything useful to the sick, nothing more. Occasionally, the words of greeting are mostly nonsense such as "how long is it" and "probably almost there". It's not that they don't want to talk, it's that they just don't know what to say. They both know that too much speech only deepens their sense of loss in reality.

After climbing the mountain road for nearly half an hour, Yu Siqi and the others finally arrived in front of a very magnificent building. Even though the snow-covered steps continued, he didn't want to know how long the road to the summit was. But the building in front of him is undoubtedly magnificent, not to mention that in the center of the huge square is a giant axe dozens of meters high.

"It's funny, but this was originally Duran's ancestor's weapon. It's just that they weren't particularly obedient at that time, so they were sent by the master mother to confiscate his ancestors' weapons. As a result, the matter was put on hold, and Duran's family did not come to ask for it, and the priests in the sanctuary could not pull their old faces to return the thing. โ€

Probably because it made her mood better after seeing the sanctuary, Wan Jie, who was slightly tired, explained to him the origin of the giant axe after resting. It was really quite strange to say, Yu Siqi found that he had barely taken a breath of air all the way, which shocked him.

'When did you get so good in physical fitness?' โ€™

He thought about it and realized that he couldn't find a suitable answer at all.

The two cautiously came to the gate of the building, the statues of the guards in front of the door had all been vandalized, and the gate itself was also very broken. This surprised and delighted them, and what surprised them was that this meant that the person who injured Xie Chonggui had broken into here, what was the purpose of the other party? Surely they didn't come here to collect supplies like they did. Happily, the guards in Shengjia's mouth are no longer difficult, and this is perhaps the only thing that makes them feel more gratified.

They exchanged glances with each other, and they walked into the sanctuary together, so to speak, without much hesitation. After all, it's all come to this point, and it's a bit of a joke to look back.

Although from the perspective of time, the building has undergone countless years of baptism, and many places have weathered to varying degrees, such as the murals in the corridors, many of which have faded. But that doesn't hide the sense of shock that this building, called the Sanctuary, can give Yu Siqi. The porch is made of fine jade, and the bricks underfoot are hollowed out with intricate patterns. The inner halls were brightly lit, and the chandeliers above their heads were adorned with dazzling treasures.

If this has made Yu Siqi realize how rich the people here are, then the tall female statue standing in the center of the hall has completely refreshed his three views.

Has anyone ever seen a statue dressed? It was the first time he had seen it.

The interior of the building was luxurious, something he had almost expected the moment he entered. However, when he was actually in the middle of it, he remembered what Father Ann had said, 'When it comes to religious beliefs, mortals will always do whatever it takes to please the person they want to please.' โ€™

"I know what's going on in your mind right now, in fact I was pretty much the same as you were when I first came here."

After noticing the expression on Yu Siqi's face, Wan Jie turned around and pointed to their left hand side and said.

"If my memory is not biased, the living area should be this one. As for other places, if you are interested, you can visit them alone next time. โ€
