Since that day, the Venerable still often invites Ye Xiaotian to chat, and there is no danger that he may inform Yang Yinglong. During the chat, the Venerable secretly hit Yang Yinglong from time to time, hoping that he would retreat and be more contented.

The same is true for Yang Yinglong. He knew that the Venerable could know his attitude through Ye Xiaotian, but in front of Ye Xiaotian, he expressed his wish bluntly, and expressed his determination to the Venerable through Ye Xiaotian's mouth that he would never give up until he achieved his goal.

Although the conflict between Venerable and Yang Yinglong is sinister, it is actually just an internal conflict. The situation is similar to the old emperor's about to die and he needs to inherit his throne. The philosophers are using their own different means to hope to be recognized by the old emperor.

The Yang Yinglong faction is similar to a prince who is qualified to inherit the treasure. He has great power in his hands, so he wanted to force the old emperor to face reality and choose him for the eternal inheritance of the country.

This relationship is certainly hostile from a certain perspective, but the two have common interests: they both hope that the power of the religion will be stronger, which is much more complicated than the relationship between the enemy and us. It is not simply a fight to the death. If Yang Yinglong's faction can completely control the situation, the Venerable must change his mind unless he hopes to hand it over to the next generation a split country.

Ye Xiaotian was like a mouse sandwiched in a bellows, but he was willing to do so. He ran around the bellows very happily. Every time he made a deal, he just needed to inform both parties of what the other party had said. This "inner room" became an open "messenger".

As he had been in contact with the old venerable, Ye Xiaotian became familiar with the old master, and almost became a friend. When he was chatting with the venerable in the garden on the rooftop, Ye Xiaotian plucked up the courage to ask about the origin of the Gu God Cult. This sect has been established for more than a thousand years, but it has a lot to do with foreign devils, and this incident has always made Ye Xiaotian deeply curious.

The Venerable smiled "hehe" and said, "I thought you didn't care about this."

The Venerable was silent for a moment and said slowly: "This is a secret of this sect. Only previous Venerables have known it."

Ye Xiaotian knew the more secrets he shouldn't know, the more dangerous he knew. The affairs of the Gu God Cult had nothing to do with him. It was not worth it to sacrifice his life for curiosity. Ye Xiaotian quickly stopped him and said, "Since it is the secret of the sect, I won't listen."

The Venerable smiled and said, "It's okay, after all, it's an old thing from 1,500 years ago. Besides, as you, even if you tell me it, who would believe it? If one is not good, you will still be summoned to kill you. You are a smart person, and I believe you will listen to it in your heart and rot in your stomach."

Ye Xiaotian could only smile bitterly after hearing this. The Venerable was silent for a moment and said slowly: "The Miao people have raised Gu since ancient times, but there was no Gu God Cult before, nor did they say Gu God."

Ye Xiaotian said in his heart: "Of course, all gods are gradually shaped into gods by future generations. For example, Lao Dan, Guan Erye, Zhong Kui... aren't they all living people who are praised as gods?"

The Venerable said, "A thousand five hundred years ago. According to the time of you Han people, it was the time of Emperor Wu of Han. At that time, there was a powerful empire in the West, called Daqin, and their supreme ruler was called the consul, and that consul was called Crassu. He led a large army to invade another huge empire, Anxue Kingdom, but was surrounded and annihilated by the Anxue army, and the entire army was wiped out. He himself also lost his life in this battle.

But his First Legion, led by his eldest son Publius, broke out of the siege and fled to Zhizhi City in the east. They wanted to settle there. However, they did not expect that there was a powerful empire in the east, which was the great Han Kingdom at that time.

At that time, a famous general in the Great Han Dynasty served as deputy captain in the Western Regions. This man was named Chen Tang. He led a large army to attack the remnants of Qin. He defeated Publius's tortoise shell chain shield formation and captured all the troops. However, Publius escaped again under the cover of his personal guards.

Publius pretended to be a merchant and fled here all the way to the Miao people. He witnessed the magical witchcraft here and became a disciple under a great wizard who was proficient in witchcraft. Thirty-six years later, he founded the Gu God Cult and became the first Gu God attendant..."

Ye Xiaotian suddenly realized that no wonder he discovered many places similar to the foreign devil sects here. It turned out that a Westerner came to Zhongtu more than a thousand years ago to learn the witchcraft proficient in local Shanmiao, and founded the witchcraft as the fundamental basis. The temple designed and built by him, of course, has many Western styles.

The Venerable sighed softly and said, "The first Venerable was a Westerner, just like a Buddhist Buddha. But most of his life was spent here. By his later years, he had completely regarded himself as a Miao person. The Gu God Sect he created had also been passed back to the Miao people. By the time I was the forty-seventh generation Venerable..."

The Venerable said: "I am a Miao person and a person who grew up in the temple since I was a child. I hope that the Gu God Cult can be passed on forever and protect our Miao people for life. But I really don't want to do this Venerable. Yang Yinglong, Gegewo, and many others, why are they so passionate about this position?"

The Venerable narrowed his eyes slightly, and the wrinkles on his old face became even thicker. He looked ahead. The gardener named Abao was busy in the flower garden ahead, serving a large area of ​​strange flowers that could exude a strong fragrance.

The Venerable raised his chin to Abao and said to Ye Xiaotian: "Look at him, aren't it good? You can't fight with the world and enjoy yourself. What I miss most is that when I was a servant in the temple, the Venerable smiled at me. The beautiful girl said something to me. I would be very happy if I had a bite of meat for lunch. Now I am very unhappy..."

Ye Xiaotian looked at Abao with his eyes. Abao was wearing coarse cloth clothes and was working hard to handle flowers and plants. Sweat was pouring out on his forehead, and a healthy red color appeared on his face. But is such a pastoral life really happy?

The venerable who has experienced the world may have turned against the simplicity and truth, but as a young man, Ye Xiaotian did not dare to agree with the venerable's ambition. He was also willing to be a small family bird in the city because he did not have the opportunity to go to a higher level, and the opportunity and the risk were too disproportionate.

If he had just a little more success, he would not be moved? He would be willing to live a pastoral life without any disputes and worries with things? Perhaps this is the difference between young people and elderly people.

Ye Xiaotian sighed secretly and comforted the priest, "You may have a lot of troubles when you are in a high position. But after all, you have enjoyed many benefits that ordinary people cannot enjoy. When I was a child, my parents took me to the homes of relatives in the suburbs of Beijing. I like their lives very much, but I only like it when I am a guest. I am absolutely reluctant to face the loess and the sky."

The Venerable still smiled. Without saying anything, Ye Xiaotian said again: "Maybe it's because the younger generation is too young and you don't have the feeling of traveling around the world and experiencing the world, so your ideas are a bit childish..."

The Venerable smiled and still didn't say anything. Ye Xiaotian was a little surprised. He looked at the Venerable, stretched out his hand tentatively, and touched him gently. The Venerable smiled and leaned to the side and fell on the bench. Ye Xiaotian opened his mouth in surprise. After a while, he woke up. A terrified shout came from the temple garden: "Come here..."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Abao rushed over and saw the Venerable's appearance, he did not dare to move around. He was at a loss and said to Ye Xiaotian: "You should take care of the Venerable first, and I will go and find someone to help."

Ye Xiaotian nodded and said that. Abao rushed forward. Ye Xiaotian tried the Venerable's breathing. He felt that although his breath was weak, he was still angry. He felt a little relieved. He was about to withdraw his hand, but the Venerable suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed his wrist, which scared Ye Xiaotian.

The Venerable gasped and said, "The deadline has arrived, the deadline has arrived, haha. I didn't expect that my deadline will be today. I thought I could last at least another month, and human calculations are not as good as God's calculations."

Ye Xiaotian said in shock: "Honor, you are saying...you are saying..."

The Venerable said lightly: "What's wrong with this? Yes, I'm going to die."

Ye Xiaotian didn't know how to comfort him for a moment. The Venerable's face changed and said, "I only had a premonition that the deadline was coming, but I didn't know that it would be today. The Gemao man is still in Lake Village and has never come back. You... do me a favor."

Ye Xiaotian hurriedly said, "Please tell me, Master."

The Venerable took out a jade plaque from his arms tremblingly. The jade was not a precious jade, but it was a long time ago. After touching it often, the yellow jade shimmered with an oily luster.

The Venerable handed the jade to Ye Xiaotian and said in a weak tone: "Take... this jade to Zhan Ning'er, let her take the jade to Lake Village and come back to Zhaogemao. As soon as you see this jade token, you will understand what happened."

Ye Xiaotian said in his heart: "This old guy has been fooling around for a long time, and now he has finally told the truth. The heir he chose should be the Gemao guy. At the moment of life and death, he sent the Gemao guy to leave the temple. It should be to protect him so that he would not be targeted by Yang Yinglong and others."

Ye Xiaotian took the jade plaque and asked, "Why didn't the Venerable send people from the temple?"

The Venerable said, "I can't hide it from others when something happens to me. I am here and I can still suppress them. As long as I get into trouble, they will be ready to move. At that time, anyone in the temple who wants to leave will attract the attention of those who are interested. Only... let Ning'er help. The An family and Zhan family behind her have always had a good relationship with the Gemao guy, and she will be willing to help with this."

Ye Xiaotian widened his eyes in surprise, and the venerable smiled slightly and said, "I know, you and Yang Yinglong are just vain and slandering. If you want to deal with the relationship, you are more inclined to settle down."

Ye Xiaotian coughed and said, "I have nothing to do with the An family. I just have some good feelings for Miss Ning'er. I don't want to get involved in your Miao people's affairs at all."

The Venerable said, "But you have already made this mess."

Ye Xiaotian gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I'll hand her the jade token for you. But you..."

The Venerable closed his eyes tiredly and said weakly: "After you leave, I will immediately activate the Gu God Array to close the temple. When the Gemao master comes back, you go quickly, I will... use the secret method to hang his life and wait for him to come back, go quickly!"
