Chapter 551: To Withdraw or Not to Withdraw?
Everyone looked in the direction where the voice came from in amazement, and saw the priest of Famayi looking at Chu Nan with a sneer on his face. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Now that the Sand Eagle people have withdrawn, this guy has immediately run back. Let me guess, you came back to ask us to give you the exercises, right? ”
Everyone's eyes brushed together and then fell on Chu Nan's face.
The high priest frowned: "Priest Famay, pay attention to your demeanor as a priest. ”
"Manners? Ha! Famayi raised his voice and sneered. You fools, these foreign thieves have come to our house and want to steal our most precious treasure in front of us, but you still don't know anything, and you still think of him as the great benefactor of our people, it is extremely stupid! ”
"Famayi!" The high priest raised his voice and snorted. "How can you slander our friends who just lived and died with us so casually? This is not the attitude of our Rand people towards our friends! ”
"You treat him as a friend, I won't." Famayi stood up tremblingly, stretched out his finger and pointed at Chu Nan, and shouted, "Tell me, did you come back this time to ask for exercises?" ”
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Chu Nan glanced at Famayi, smiled angrily, nodded and said, "You're right, I'm here to ask for exercises this time." The High Priest had promised me that if he could repel the Sand Eagle's attack this time, he would give me the opportunity to participate in the trial. Now that Sand Eagle's people have withdrawn, should we fulfill his promise to me? ”
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the conference hall.
The other priests didn't suspect Chu Nan originally, but at this time, seeing that he admitted it so simply and said it so nakedly, even if it didn't make them suspect that He Chu Nan was really colluding with those enemies, they were somewhat dissatisfied with him.
Now that the crisis of the Holy Mountain has not completely passed, at this critical moment when they are discussing the topic of deciding the fate of the entire clan of the Holy Mountain, Chu Nan ran out and asked them to fulfill their promise and ask for two exercises, which ...... Isn't your face a little ugly?
The high priest also fell silent.
He didn't have any doubts about Chu Nan, after all, everyone had seen Chu Nan's performance before, and Chu Nan was seriously injured twice in order to help them fight against Sha Ying, one of which was a blur of flesh and blood all over his body, and his muscles and bones were broken, and he almost died directly.
If you still suspect him of collusion with the enemy, it is too unreasonable.
But at this time, Chu Nan asked him to fulfill his promise so bluntly, which really made people feel a little uncomfortable.
However, the high priest would not directly express the emotions in his mind like the other priests, and after he pondered for a while, he said to Chu Nan: "Yes. This is the promise I made, and now that Chu Nan has fulfilled your promise, then of course I have to fulfill my promise. ”
"You can't do that!" The priest of Famayi immediately shouted: "Qima, those two exercises are the supreme treasures of our clan, how can they be handed over to such a foreign thief and liar!" ”
"Watch your words!" The high priest gave Famayi a deep look. "No matter how deep your prejudice against outsiders is, Chu Nan and this friend of him really helped us get through this crisis. And a promise is a promise, and if you don't even fulfill your promise, what qualifications do you have to think of yourself as the guardian of the holy mountain? ”
Priest Famayi was trembling by the high priest's glance, she turned her head to look at Chu Nan, pointed at Chu Nan, and her body trembled violently.
"Thief of the foreign race, I will never let you steal the most important treasure of my clan!"
Dropping the words, she snorted coldly, and left the council chamber with agility and speed that was by no means appropriate for her age.
The people in the chamber fell silent.
After a while, Chu Nan suddenly let out a laugh.
"Guys, isn't it time for us to get down to business?"
The high priest frowned slightly, and said with a slightly embarrassed expression: "This...... Chu Nan, you have also seen that there are still many things to deal with in the Holy Mountain now, and I am afraid that you will have to ...... later."
"That's not what I'm talking about." Chu Nan waved his hand. "I heard you're debating whether or not to leave? So is the result of the discussion? ”
Hearing this, all the priests, including the high priest, had a somewhat embarrassed expression on their faces.
Seeing their reaction, Chu Nan immediately understood that they obviously didn't discuss the result at all.
In fact, this can also be understood, after all, the holy mountain is something that has been passed down by the Rand people for thousands of years, which is equivalent to the spiritual totem of all the Rand people, and it is naturally not so easy to let them all withdraw now.
Chu Nan didn't have much say on this issue, and he wasn't interested in getting involved, so he just glanced at the high priest and asked, "High priest, can we talk about it alone?" There are some things I want to tell you. ”
The high priest hesitated for a moment, beckoned to Chu Nan, and asked him to follow him into a hut next to the council hall.
"High Priest, just tell me straight, is it possible for you to evacuate the Holy Mountain?" As soon as he entered the house, Chu Nan asked bluntly.
The High Priest smiled bitterly, glanced outside the room, and shook his head slowly.
"It's possible, but it's not very promising......"
Chu Nan nodded in understanding.
In fact, when he heard the guard say that what these elders and priests were discussing was not how to evacuate, but whether to evacuate, and he was already mentally prepared.
These Rand people are really unwilling to give up their holy mountain easily.
"Well, if you don't want to evacuate, someone asked me to convey a message to you. If you feel that you can't resist the enemy's attack, then choose to surrender directly, and she will help you recover the loss of the Holy Mountain later. ”
"She?" The high priest noticed this title in Chu Nan's mouth and was a little surprised. "Who is she?"
"Holy Skelle, do you know, High Priest?"
The high priest's eyes widened suddenly, his face was shocked, and he even stretched out his hands and pinched Chu Nan's shoulders, exclaiming, "What did you say? The Holy Lady of Skelle? Is it true? Is it really what she said? How did you come to know the Holy Maiden of Skelle? How would she contact you? ”
Seeing the high priest's reaction so violently, Chu Nan felt strange in his heart.
It seems that the relationship between Venerable Auvili and the Rand people is by no means as simple as Venerable Auvili said, and there must be a lot of stories going on in it.
Thinking that Venerable Ovili didn't let herself mention her true identity, Chu Nan could only respond vaguely.
After all, the high priest was old and steady, but he was excited for a while, and soon regained his composure.
"Are you sure it's the Skelle Saintess?"
"I ......" Chu Nan wanted to say that I was sure, but after thinking about it, he really couldn't be sure, so he could only shrug his shoulders and say: "I'm not sure, but it's a close elder of Angel Belly who said this, and I'm sure she won't lie to me." ”
"Well, no one else will know the title of Skelle Holy Maiden, nor will they know ......" The High Priest seemed to suddenly remember something, and the expression on his face changed several times, and finally sighed. If it's really the Holy Daughter of Skelle, then we have a good chance of keeping the Holy Mountain. ”
"Just promising?" Chu Nan's brows furrowed.
Venerable Ao Weili is a star-level martial artist, with her to make a move, what is Sand Eagle?
Why is it that the high priest still looks like he is not confident enough?
The High Priest frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly nodded and said to Chu Nan: "Thank you for bringing such good news, but we can't completely pin our hopes on the Holy Maiden of Skelle, and we have to make the same efforts ourselves." Well...... Can you do us another favor? (To be continued.) )
