Chapter 523 The White Moonlight of Powerful Officials [1v3] (27)

"Sitong, Siqi, step back."

Rong Chen's voice sounded behind them.

The two white-clothed waiters immediately put their right hands on their chests, lowered their heads, and stepped aside.

Rong Chen slowly walked down from the altar.

The gold ornaments on the back of his waist dragged the floor, outlining a series of beautiful lines.

He is still as gentle as jade.

Dressed in snow and black hair, she looks like a fairy in a painting.

But he is no longer the humble and lonely scholar Rong Chen.

It is the high priest of the temple who is under one person and above ten thousand people.

The pupils behind the golden face were also as thin as snow, full of coolness.

No more softness.

"I'm sorry, Miss Liu, I didn't intend to hide my identity from you on purpose. It's due to my responsibility, so I can't do it."

Rong Chen opened his mouth slowly.

And Bai Wu's gaze also slowly moved from his face to the ground.

She bit her lip, and her eyes couldn't help but swell, "Master Sacrifice is benevolent for the people, daughters of the people... how dare you have any objections?"

"That's good." Rong Chen nodded lightly, "I also know about the relationship between you and the late emperor. When you were unconscious, I informed the people in the palace, and they will send someone to pick you up in a few days. From now on, you won't have to be bullied anymore."

His tone was extremely gentle.

It sounds like a merciful God blessing His followers.

But Bai Wu is not his believer.

She raised her head suddenly and looked at him in a daze, "Why?"

Rong Chen's face still remained unchanged, "Although everyone already knows the truth, for you, the imperial palace may be the best destination."

Bai Wu smiled wryly, "Really?"

She wiped away the tears overflowing from the corners of her eyes, and slowly knelt down to Rong Chen.

"But no matter what, Liu Qiqi, the believer girl, still wants to thank the priest, and thank the lord for returning the innocent girl."

Then she took out the jade statue of the god from her bosom.

This is what she found on the bedside.

"Also please ask the priest to do the girl a favor and bring this thing to a scholar named Rong Chen."

"He once made Minnv believe in God and hope."

"But Minnv has never believed in any gods, but Mr. Rong who wholeheartedly saved Minnv from fire and water."

In the end, she raised her head, the tears in her eyes were no longer there, "Since the scholar is dead, the daughter of the people has lost her faith, please ask the priest to take this thing back."

The white-clothed waiters at the side, including the villagers who hadn't left, were shocked.

How dare this Liu Qiqi say in front of the high priest that she has lost her faith?
And Rong Chen's always calm face finally had a ripple.

He stared blankly at the woman kneeling in front of him, a feeling of powerlessness gradually spread throughout his body.

He wanted to lift her up.

But he can't.

She is right.

The scholar is dead, and now he is just a body carrying thousands of beliefs in Dongli Kingdom.

He could only clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves, and then naturally looked away, looking at the waiter in white.

The waiter stepped forward knowingly, took the jade statue from Bai Wu's hand, and was slightly surprised at the same time.

Isn't this a relic left by the previous high priest?

How did such a precious thing come into the hands of this commoner?

The weight of the jade statue was lost in her hands, Bai Wu fulfilled her wish to catch a trace of heartache in Rong Chen's eyes, then lowered her head, covering up the cunning in her eyes.

Sacrifice adults.

How does it feel?

Do you like this gift from Qiqi?

She already knew Rong Chen's true identity.

In the snake cave, when he gave her the jade statue of the god, she had already noticed something was wrong.

Ordinary people can only worship wooden statues.

It's not that they can't afford other materials, but that they don't have the qualifications.

Apart from the imperial palace, only the temple is eligible for this.

It is no longer a day or two for people in Lingnan Town to disappear mysteriously.

Although the traffic here is blocked, it is impossible for the temple to be unconcerned about it.

Unless they've already done something about it.

And scholar Rong Chen is their action.

The indifferent and compassionate temperament in him cannot be imitated by others.

Except for the high priest of the temple.

Bai Wu couldn't think of the second person.

She didn't expect that the person she was looking for would be sent to her eyes like this.

If it weren't for his sentence "The eldest princess is the master of Shage, her fate is unknown."

She will not be reduced to flee to such a point.

He concealed his identity and came to her side.

Why is she not?

On the cliff, she didn't do it unintentionally.

The black python was not willing to bite her at all, it was she who deliberately let go, causing him to fall.

Then she found him deliberately pretending to be worried, deliberately took care of him through hardships, deliberately cut his wrists and fed him blood, and poured out his heart and lungs for him.

Facts have proved that this priest who grew up in the temple and was taught not to be contaminated by any love is still able to move the heart.

A mere wrist blood was exchanged for the pity of the son of the gods.

She's making too much money.

This was her first move when she came to Lingnan Town.

It is also the same "believe and be safe".

Next, it is "Yin to map it".

I have to say that the art of war taught by Wei Xiaoshizi is quite useful.

...

Just when Rong Chen ordered people to take Wu Xian into custody and prepare to return to the temple, several villagers suddenly shouted and broke into Wu Xian's village.

"My lord priest, my lord priest, it's bad, the bandits are here!"

Rong Chen frowned, and motioned for the waiter in white to bring those villagers over.

"Speak well, what's the matter?"

Several villagers knelt down in the corridor, feeling terrified.

"Master Sacrifice, thousands of bandits descended from the barren hills in the west, burned, killed and looted all the way, and now they have reached our village!"

Another person continued, "They have already reached the street, and the stronger men in our town are going to deal with them, but, but we are just a group of people farming, how can we be the opponents of those bandits?"

"Yes, Lord Priest, you must save us!"

Rong Chen frowned.

It's not that he doesn't want to save, but that he doesn't have the ability.

Although the eight waiters beside him knew a little bit of kung fu, they couldn't resist those bandits who were eager to kill.

"Don't worry, call the old people, women and children of the town to come to Wuxian Manor to hide for a while, and I will send a few servants to deal with those bandits together with your people."

"However, this is not a long-term solution. How about this, I will write a letter to the court in the name of the high priest. As long as the soldiers and horses arrive, those bandits will not be a problem. You can rest assured."

The villagers all bowed their heads in gratitude, "Thank you, Lord Priest, thank you God, with Lord Priest here, we will be fine."

In the side room, Bai Wu was lying on the bed lovingly stroking the black python that had been missing for a few days.

"Wonderful, you did a good job this time, and I will reward you with a lot of fat."

He vomited out a chopstick of raw meat that Bai Wu picked up, and crawled up to her neck with its tail swinging.

Bai Wu looked at it with longing eyes, and let out a long sigh.

"You."

She leaned over and kissed its cold lips.

"Are you satisfied with this?"
