Years ago, the deserted tribe was in turmoil, and many people died as a result.

But the Great Witch has always been in the witch temple, only in charge of divination and priesthood, and rarely participates in the power struggle between the tribes. In those days, there was a lot of competition outside, but inside the witch temple it was the same as usual.

As long as the witch temple is stable and unmoving, the panic and anxiety of the desolate people will be settled here.

The Witch Temple is only responsible for appeasing the believers, but does not interfere in the outside world's fighting, after all, no matter which position is in charge, the status of the Witch Temple will not change.

Okay, why did Da Wu get seriously injured and sick because of this?

This doubt in his heart, He Lingjiang naturally can't solve it now: "If you want to find out the facts, I'm afraid you have to explore the Witch Temple again."

Tidu nodded, and he continued to ask, "He Qi Niangzi suspects that there are people from the Divine Palace in the Witch Temple, and he has found anything wrong all the way today?"

He Lingjiang shook his head slightly: "According to what I can see today, it seems that there is something strange about the Great Witch......

"Then ......," Tidu hesitated, "it can't be that the Great Witch is involved with the people of the Divine Palace, right?"

"The Great Witch is now more than 60 years old, born in a tribe of desolate people, and ascended to the throne of the Great Witch at the age of 28, and it has been nearly 40 years since then. With such an identity, there is really no need to be involved with the Divine Palace......

"Who's right?" He Ling Jiang raised his eyebrows, "Didn't the rebel leader who started the turmoil in the past also be born and raised here? The reason why these people under the command of the shrine follow it is because of the so-called faith, and some for the interests of the powerful. The human heart is unpredictable, and who knows when others will have other thoughts?"

"However, now it's just a guess on your part, and nothing is certain." She sighed under her breath, "Let's wait until we get to the bottom of it......

Tidu replied, "The two of you were in the witch temple before, so you should have a good idea of the layout in it. It's not easy to dive into the depths during the day, but in the dead of night, you may be able to find some opportunities. It would be best if we could find out what was going on in the Great Witch."

"Are you going tonight?"

He ordered Jiang to bow his head: "The sooner you are, the better."

When it was nightfall, He Lingjiang changed into night clothes with Pei You and sneaked into the Witch Temple.

At night, the guards in the witch temple became stricter, and the courtyard she saw during the day was undoubtedly the residence of the great witch.

He Lingjiang pinched the trick in his hand, slightly dotted under his feet, crossed the high wall and formed the same formation, and then unconsciously avoided the guards in the courtyard, and landed lightly on the roof diagonally opposite the main house with Pei You.

The night was getting darker, but the candles were still lit up in the main house.

From this vantage point, she could only see a silhouette falling on the window paper. Then the man turned and went into the inner chamber, where he was gone.

Looking at the figure, it should be the same witch she saw during the day.

He Lingjiang couldn't see the movements of the people in the house, let alone hear the sound, but if she was also a cultivator, if she didn't want to startle the snake, she could only lie here and wait secretly, wait for the witch attendant to retreat and the people in the house to sleep, and then get close to investigate.

He Ling Jiang crouched on the roof tiles and stared quietly at the opposite room.

Finally, with a "squeak", the door to the main house opened.

The person who walked out first, tall and thin, with a dignified face, was the sorcerer he had seen in the daytime.

She turned slightly sideways and whispered a few words to the waiter guarding the door, and after a while, she saw two waiters carrying a bamboo sedan chair over.

The sorcerer turned back and went into the house, and then saw her help a man out.

In the dim light of the porch lamp, the man was dressed in a wide robe and coat, with a thin figure and a hood on his head, which covered most of his face.

However, the moment she sat in the bamboo sedan chair and raised her head slightly, He Lingjiang still took her face into his eyes.

It was a wrinkled face, and the face that was already lacking in blood was even more gray in the dim light.

This face, she can be described as unforgettable!

Isn't it the old woman who took her shell from the wasteland before, Jingu

The Lady of the Pleiades?

Her eyes narrowed slightly, the desolate man Wu turned out to be the star envoy of the Divine Palace, Rao was the person she suspected of the Witch Temple or colluding with the Divine Palace, and this result was still a little unexpected to her.

"Go to the dungeon! From tonight onwards, the Great Witch will begin his retreat." The sorcerer commanded.

"Yes." Hearing a response, the bamboo sedan chair was lifted.

The people on the bamboo sedan chair were so light that the waiters couldn't feel any weight.

According to the rules of the Witch Temple, before the great witch returns to heaven, he will go to the underground palace in the northwest corner of the Witch Temple to retreat, and then sit here.

After that, the shrine maiden and the witch attendant will arrange the funeral affairs and related festivals, and when everything is arranged, the shrine maiden can officially take over the position of the great witch and give birth to a new great witch.

Now the witch waiter said that he was in retreat and cultivating, but looking at the physical condition of the great witch, I am afraid that it will not last long.

Although the witches have never spoken out, they have served the great witches in the witch temple since they were young, how can they not know the meaning? The two couldn't help but slow down, lest they fall into the bamboo sedan chair on their shoulders.

He Lingjiang and Pei You glanced at each other, and then they were far behind them.

At this time, it was the dead of night, and the matter of the great witch moving to the underground palace was not announced to the people in the witch temple with great fanfare, but was prepared to wait for dawn to inform the people of the witch temple, and then inform the lord of Lang and the desolate believers.

They had traveled all the way, but they had not seen anyone except the patrolling guards.

However, even the patrolling guards, seeing this situation, all mourned, this great witch has been in power for nearly forty years......

The underground palace is far away from the main hall of the witch temple.

After walking like this for about half an hour, everyone finally stopped in front of a simple and heavy building.

The building was made of countless boulders, and in the middle was a huge stone door, each with two lanterns hanging from each door.

The sorcerer stepped forward and rubbed on the edge of the stone gate for a while, and the stone door opened in response, and the waiter carried the bamboo sedan chair and gradually disappeared in front of him.

He Ling Jiang saw that the sound at the stone gate was getting farther away, and he gestured with Pei You, and the two of them dodged into it before the stone gate could be closed.

On the walls of the dungeon, there were originally only some fluorite stones, which showed a little bit of light, and it was dim and tight.

After the witch servant came in, he used the fire fold in his hand to light the oil lamp on the wall, and the whole underground palace suddenly brightened, and then led people to continue to move forward.

In the underground palace, there are several palaces, in the past, when the great witch or witch needed to retreat and cultivate, it was disturbed by outsiders, so they avoided here.

But there is one place that is very special, only the great witches who are about to reach the end of the day will retreat here.

Now, this is the place they are going.
