198. High Priest
"No wonder, you can say that to me without any scruples before, I knew that you are definitely not a mortal, but I didn't expect that you would have such skills!"
Elder Ula looked at Qi Tianyang with admiration and magic, with a trace of eagerness hidden in his eyes, as if he wanted to take out all the secrets of Qi Tianyang's body.
"It's not true, it's just that each walk has its own ability, just like you raise Gu, mine is just the same existence."
——
All this was arranged by Elder Ulla, and from then on, the family would never appear in the stockade again.
The courtyard is still cold, the ancient trees are withered and yellow, and the weeds are seedlings.
……
"The Black Miao people are really too rampant, Great Elder, are we going to be so passive all the time?" Although Raqqa has always been outspoken, he behaves recklessly. However, this time, it is really speaking everyone's minds.
The other elders present also turned their expectant eyes to Ulla.
"Alas, it seems that this year's Dou Gu Conference must be advanced!"
Elder Ulla's eyes were dark, his tone was sad, and he sighed heavily.
Later, after Elder Wula's explanation, we learned that in the past few hundred years, due to the various oppressions of the Black Miao people, the Bai Miao people, who had never advocated cultivating poisonous Gu, had to make other plans for the survival of their own people.
Among them, the Gu Fighting Conference is one of the indispensable activities of the year. Obviously, the so-called Dou Gu Conference is to encourage Bai Miao people who are talented in Gu cultivation to cultivate one of the most powerful poisonous Gus.
The people who participated in the Gu Fighting Conference raised their own Gu and competed round by round, round by round, until the most powerful Gu worm was decided.
As these clansmen who are famous for their Gu culture, they have cultivated the most powerful Gu worm in the whole village, which is more valuable than anything, and this is the greatest honor bestowed on them.
Therefore, the annual Gu Fighting Conference is comparable to the traditional festival in China, with Gu worms with their own characteristics. The village celebrates and is full of pomp.
Round after round of Gu Fighting Competition, all the Bai Miao people would gather together to watch, cheering one after another. Although, there are many residents who have never raised Gu.
In the end, the Gu who won the victory was the "Gu King" of this year's Dou Gu Conference.
Of course, when it comes to Dou Gu, it is not only necessary to test the strength of the Gu raised. In the same way, it will also extremely test the Gu cultivator's Gu control technique, after all, no matter how powerful the Gu worm is, if it is out of the control of the person, it will cause endless disasters.
At the least, it will backfire the original owner and even take his life; In the worst case, they invaded the villagers and destroyed the villages.
——
"Raqqa! In the evening, you go and invite the High Priest, it's time for us to discuss the matter of this year's Dou Gu Conference. It's just right for him to meet our guest. ”
Elder Ulla thought for a moment and commanded Raqqa.
"Okay, I'll go!" Raqqa had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and after saying that, he ran out of the house. It was as if the holding of the Dou Gu Conference could combat the actions of the Black Miao people.
Returning to the Great Elder's mansion, without waiting for them to say hello, I directly pulled Qi Tianyang back to the guest room that had been cleaned up a long time ago.
"What are we going to do, are we going to stay here forever?" Closing the door, I asked Qi Tianyang directly, and the scene I saw today has always lingered in my heart.
In this strange place, Qi Tianyang has always been an outsider, there is no need to take such a risk here, even if the Bai Miao people think that Qi Tianyang is their descendant, but whether it is clear to us in our own hearts or not. Moreover, he is not very good at Gu arts, in case he catches the path of the Black Miao people, it is really dangerous.
"Crazy again?" Qi Tianyang stretched out his hand and rubbed my hair, looked at me dotingly, and smiled reassuringly.
"We have successfully gained their trust, and now we are considered to have one more ally, this entire Bai Miao clan, but it is a great help, how can we just walk away like this?"
"However, you're not good at using Gu and solving Gu. In case of any accidents, if those black Miao people really target Bai Miao like this now, aren't you the first victim? These bugs are disgusting just to think about. As he spoke, he couldn't help but shudder.
I'm still very worried, originally to unravel many mysteries, we came to Xiangxi.
Even if something happened to Zhu Fu and Xiao Ning, it didn't make me so scared, after all, it was just a ghost, and Qi Tianyang was still quite good at catching ghosts.
Now, the development of things is beyond our control, and I don't want Qi Tianyang to be so early and put myself in uncontrollable danger.
Although we have faced all kinds of force majeure factors in the past, this time the opponent is a person who kills people with invisible Gu.
Isn't there a saying that the most terrible thing in the world is not ghosts, but people.
"Don't worry, I'm measured, besides, sooner or later this will be something I have to face, even if I can hide from the first year of junior high school, I can't hide from the fifteenth, uninvited danger, I can't hide if I want to."
Qi Tianyang also understands my worries, but all this is not something we can control.
I lost my words for a moment.
In the evening, Raqqa invited the high priest from the stockade, and I did not expect that there would be a priest here. I was a little eager to see that this was for me, and before today, there was only the legendary Priest.
These godlike clergy have always been characters I am curious about and afraid of, and of course there are many yearnings in my heart, because whether it is the high priest in the TV series or something, they are all fluttering characters.
But I know that these are all fictions, and according to many historical materials, wild histories, etc., the position of high priest is probably limited to killing cattle and sheep and worshiping God.
Spread the oracle between the heavens and the people, and seek peace between the mountains and the water.
What's more, there are not a few people who sacrifice to heaven.
I thought that this kind of person was like a ghost, fierce and vicious, and he spoke rudely and rudely, and he chattered.
After meeting the high priest, Wu Lun, I completely changed my prejudice against such people.
Just like in the TV series and the Internet, this is a modest and elegant young man, probably more than twenty-five years old, with fair skin like clotted fat, obviously a man who is rich and rich, and only eight buckets high, but I can't help but want to use "Hui Zhilanxin" to describe him.
Seeing that I was fascinated by this high priest, Qi Tianyang had already had a black line on his face.
"Fang Youyou, you give me enough time!" Qi Tianyang lowered his head in my ear and said angrily, although he tried his best to suppress his voice, it still shook my eardrums and hurt, he said, and tightly strangled my waist with his arms.
I knew that I was a little out of shape, so I could only retract my gaze stupidly, and made a very provocative grimace at Qi Tianyang.
"Huh! Great Elder, I didn't expect that our high priest should be in his twenties when he is so young! Became a high priest at such a young age? ”
Qi Tianyang opened his mouth at this time, his tone was indifferent, and he had long since lost the anger he had just given me. But why do I still faintly hear a sour feeling?
It's just that in front of a priest, it is really inappropriate to directly guess the age of others, fortunately, this high priest is a man, if it is a woman, wouldn't she want to find Qi Tianyang to work hard? After all, women are the most taboo to mention age.
"Ahem, I don't mean to offend, I'm just surprised by the high priest's youth." Qi Tianyang should have done it on purpose just now, and only then did he add another sentence so as not to appear reckless.
"Tianyang, you don't know, the high priest of Wulun is a well-known boy in the village, don't look at him as a hairy boy, but he is already thirty-five years old!" Ulla's tone was full of smiles, obviously proud.
What the? Thirty-five? I opened my mouth in surprise and couldn't close it for a long time, this is too rebellious, it is simply angry that we young girls who are about to twilight! Ahh
Elder Ulla had a smile on his face, and he didn't shy away from making a joke about Wu Lun, which was not at all like the model that the high priest and the elder should get along with.
"Master is kidding me again!" The high priest, who had not answered, said this, his tone was flat, with a slight smile, and his voice was as warm as jade.
Of course, I was surprised by what he said.
It turns out that they are in a master-apprentice relationship? No wonder Elder Ulla mentioned the High Priest just now, and there was a hint of pride in his tone.
But does that really make sense? How could a disciple of Elder Ulla become a priest? Or how could the high priest be a disciple of Elder Ulla?
Qi Tianyang didn't expect it at all, after all, it was impossible to do so.
