Chapter 54: The Man of Heaven
Listening to the boss's praise like a cannonball, Tang Li was a little flattered and laughed a few times.
"I don't need the boss, I can see it myself, but this master pays." Tang Li pointed to Su Li beside him and said to the boss.
The boss looked at Tang Li's fingers, and saw that although Su Li was dressed in an ordinary dress, the dagger on his waist and the jade jewelry on his wrist showed that he was extraordinary, and these things were definitely priceless treasures in the homes of ordinary people, which made the boss's eyes light up all of a sudden, and he quickly nodded respectfully and said, "Okay, I know, I'll arrange it for you." ”
After speaking, he stretched out his hand to greet a guy and instructed him to take Tang Li and Su Li to the separate fitting room at the back.
Tang Carp and Su Li came to a room under the leadership of the guys, the room was very large, enough for dozens of people to easily shuttle between them, Tang Carp walked into the room, his eyes fell on the wall, a huge brass mirror came into view, enough to shine Tang Li's entire body into it, and next to the mirror was a dazzling array of clothing, various, colorful, everything, not only women's clothing, but even a lot of men's clothing placed behind women's clothing.
Su Li looked at Tang Li's interested gaze, and then came to sit down diagonally opposite the mirror with satisfaction, crossed Erlang's legs, and watched Tang Li pick out clothes with a leisurely expression.
"Well, I didn't lie to you, did I? These clothes are exactly the same as the material on your body, you can pick them, I have money. As he spoke, Su Li patted his chest, looking wealthy.
"It's really our style, Su Li, thank you today."
Tang Li smiled, and then picked one of the bunch of clothes to change into, this dress is a moon-white skirt, the sleeves and long hem are embroidered with complex patterns, it looks very rich and elegant, the clothes are fluttering, like the Nine Heavens Xuannu, the whole person looks beautiful and refined, does not eat the fireworks of the world, and is beautiful to the extreme.
Tang Li glanced at himself in the mirror, nodded with satisfaction, turned around to look at Su Li, and asked, "How is it, this is good, right?" ”
Su Li nodded, staring at Tang Li with an appreciative gaze, but as soon as he spoke, he said, "It's too plain!" ”
"Huh? I think it's okay, it's pretty good! Tang Li asked blankly, not understanding why Su Li said it was not good-looking.
"It's good-looking, it's just that your clothes always remind me of the high priest, so let's change it." Su Li shrugged his shoulders and said to Tang Li.
"High priest?"
Hearing Su Li mention the Hays priest, Tang Limeng was stunned, yes, the high priest's cloak seems to be very similar to this fabric and pattern, it is indeed a little inappropriate. However, she was still thinking about how to get some high priest's secrets out of Su Li's place, and now that he had started this himself, it was right in her mind.
"Your high priest seems to be full of mystery, I see that you all respect her very much, does she have any special skills?"
"Hmm!" After listening to Tang Li's inquiry, Su Li nodded, and his face suddenly became a little solemn: "She is our faith, the hope of our tribe, she is the priest designated by Lord Shenlong, and she is the person appointed by Heaven." ”
"The Man of Heaven?" After listening to Su Li's words, Tang Li asked with some doubts.
"That's right! We treat her with the same respect as we treat God, and the certification of Lord Shenlong is proof of supreme. Su Li nodded heavily and said.
"Then what do you mean, the Yanchi envoy beside her is also a person appointed by heaven?" Tang Li pretended to be serious about choosing clothes, and asked Su Li tentatively.
As soon as her words fell, she immediately saw Su Li's face darken instantly, looked at Tang Li with disdain, and said with disdain: "What messenger? He is just the male favorite of the high priest, and he is also known as the messenger, cut! Believe it to you ignorant people! ”
"What do you say?! Male pets? You said that he was..."
Tang Li listened to Su Li's words, and almost jumped up in shock, and instantly rushed to Su Li's face, questioning him in surprise, staring at Su Li with knife-like eyes, as if he was going to eat him alive.
Su Li was taken aback by Tang Li's sudden move, and was a little stunned in his heart, he stammered: "I said that he is the male pet of the high priest, what's the matter, you, why are you so excited?" ”
"You..."The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, the more angry the anger in her heart burned, Tang Li's face became more and more ugly, she stretched out her hand and pointed at Su Li, and said with an indignant face: "You tell me clearly, what is the relationship between Yanchi and the high priest?!" ”
Seeing this, Su Li couldn't help swallowing his saliva, stared at Tang Li with two big eyes, looked at Tang Li as if he was very scared, and said: "I, I didn't lie to you, the messengers around the high priest change people every year, and they are all handsome men, you tell me what is this not a male pet?" If you don't believe me, you can ask around and find out if I'm telling the truth. ”
"Su Li, are you sure you didn't lie to me? Is that Yanchi really the male favorite of the high priest? How is this possible?! Tang Li stared at Su Li with wide eyes, with a look of disbelief, her eyes were sharp, as if she wanted to see through Su Li.
Su Li saw Tang Li's sharp eyes, and suddenly felt a little weak, but he still had the courage to say: "How can I lie to you with this kind of thing, what I said is the truth, but this is all the private matter of the high priest, and we should not discuss it privately." ”
"It's... I.... Ah! ”
Tang Li stomped her feet anxiously, she didn't expect things to be like this, she originally guessed that maybe Shen Yanzhi was taken away by Da Jiao, and was saved by the high priest by chance, or that the high priest and Da Jiao were originally together, in short, no matter how she guessed, she really didn't expect the high priest to have this kind of mind to Yan Chi!
If it was really like what Su Li said, then the possibility of Shen Yanzhi being taken away greatly increased, he now has lost his memory, and he doesn't know how the high priest will deceive him, maybe she has already done something to him!
Thinking of this, Tang Li lowered his head in frustration and covered his head with both hands, feeling very bad.
"Little carp, what's wrong with you? Why do you care so much about the High Priest and the Pond? Seeing Tang Li's appearance, Su Li's face flashed with a suspicious look, he looked at Tang Li with some puzzlement, and asked with a puzzled expression.
Hearing this, Tang Li suddenly raised his head, looked at Su Li, and then said expectantly, "Su Li, can you take me to the High Priest?" ”
Su Li was stunned for a moment, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he looked at Tang Li with an unhappy expression, and suddenly recalled in his mind that Tang Li had originally asked to live with the high priest last night, was there any connection between them? But no, the high priest has never left the island since he was a child, and it is absolutely impossible for them to know each other, so since it is not for the high priest, is it for him?
"Why do you want to go to the High Priest? Have you taken a fancy to that Yanchi?! ”
Tang Li's face turned red when she heard Su Li's words, she pretended to glare at Su Li, and said angrily: "Nonsense, am I that kind of person?" How do you think that?! ”
"Then why do you suddenly want to find the High Priest? You don't know, no one is allowed to approach the high priest's residence at will without being summoned, and those who violate the ban will be punished by Lord Shenlong, and they will die! I warn you, for the sake of your life, you should break this thought. Su Li looked at Tang Li seriously and admonished with a serious face.
Hearing Su Li's warning, Tang Li pursed his lips helplessly, Su Li is the son of the chief, if even he can't easily see the high priest, then I'm afraid few people will be able to see her, so what should I do, I don't even know where the high priest lives now, and I don't know how the other party is, in case of handover, I won't be mentally prepared at all.
But she had to go to the High Priest's mansion, and now that Yan Chi was still in her hands, he didn't know anything now, and it would be bad if the High Priest got his hands on him. But there was nothing she could do now, so she could only try to find out the high priest's residence from Su Li first, and then make the next move.
Thinking of this, Tang Li squeezed out a bright smile at Su Li with difficulty, looked at her without blinking, and said in a sincere tone: "Su Li, it's nothing if I don't see the high priest, I'm just curious about her, you see that she is so good-looking, and so powerful, everyone has this love for beauty, and I like it very much when I see it, so I want to contact her." ”
Listening to Tang Li's words, Su Li blinked with some suspicion, and then looked down at her carefully, as if he was trying to find out if she was lying and deceiving herself, but looking at the sincere look on Tang Li's face, Su Li breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and nodded slowly.
"Well, in fact, you don't need to covet the beauty of the high priest, although she looks like a young girl on the outside, but what you don't know is that she was like this when I was very young, and after so many years, her appearance has not changed in the slightest, and I don't know how she is maintained."
"What? So, what about her age? Do you know how old she is? Tang Li hurriedly asked.
"I don't know, but I'm afraid I'm older than my father! For those who are ordained by heaven live forever. Su Li replied cautiously, and after speaking, he looked around with palpitations, as if he was talking about something.
"Immortal?!" When Tang Li heard Su Li's words, her eyes suddenly widened in shock, she looked at him with a surprised expression, and muttered in disbelief, she couldn't help but suddenly think of a pill - the elixir of immortality.
"Hey! You are so surprised, she is not the same as ordinary people like us, and you have forgotten that she is the person appointed by Lord Shenlong! Su Li saw Tang Li's surprised look, shook his head, and sighed.
Tang Li opened her mouth, she was really frightened, she didn't expect that there was such a big mystery behind the high priest, could it be that she was an immortal? No, if she is an immortal, why should she be an unknown high priest in this backward tribe? Isn't this overkill, and it is rumored that the gods don't live in the legendary Penglai Immortal Island? This is simply not logical!
Or, like herself, she has taken the Elixir of Immortality? This is a bit possible, starting from the costume, Tang Li has already suspected that they are from the same place, does this mean that they are fellow countrymen, so it is better to get closer? But I don't know if she will sell her face, which is a bit difficult to say.
