"You've been feeding it too much blood lately. As the Han people say, it's better to overdo it than to overdo it."
"You have a weak constitution and are not suitable for ferocious Gu insects like the Ghost-Eyed Spider. Please replace it as soon as possible..."
One by one, the high priest just glanced casually and was able to figure out what the other party's problem was. Almost two hours had passed, so it was almost done.
At this point, although these Miao people were unwilling to give in, they still bowed respectfully to the high priest, then exited the square and returned along the chain again.
There are about thirty or forty people left who can stay.
"It's not just us, people will be arriving one after another in the past few days. In fact, we are here early." Lao Gutou said.
Su Qi understood this, which meant that the selection of the saint would have to wait.
He looked at Qin Na and asked: "Are you still dozing off? Otherwise, let the high priest treat you?"
"I stopped fighting. With the blessing of the White Jade Holy Gu, I feel better than before." Qin Na shook her head. Ever since she stepped here, the curse-like feeling has gone away.
From this point of view, Qin Na was indeed chosen. However, this method made Su Qi secretly shake his head. The people in Miao Village were really overbearing in their behavior.
In fact, what Su Qi didn't realize was that if he was not from Maoshan and was just a simple cultivator, would the high priest really be so kind?
Everything happens for a reason, Su Qi thought about it and stretched out his palm.
"What?"
"Relic, didn't I borrow it from you? Now that everything is fine, it's time to return it to me!"
"You...hum!"
Qin Na pouted. If she had known better, she would have said that she was still fainting. She originally wanted to just take the relics, but she didn't expect Su Qi to be more calculating than she was.
While the two were bickering, they followed the team and gradually entered the real Gu Holy City.
The extremely ancient city wall has traces of time left on it. I don’t know how long it has been since this city was built. Vines are wrapped around the eaves and walls, and a gurgling stream flows through it. This is mountain spring water brought down from the mountains. The people here are completely self-sufficient by relying on the mountains.
"Everyone, please stay here for now. When everyone is almost here, the selection of the saint will begin." The high priest casually led everyone to look at the courtyards along the street.
Everyone was basically assigned a room, and they all lived alone in a small courtyard. Su Qi looked at his small courtyard, with bluestone slabs on the ground. He crossed the screen wall and walked in. There were two large vats placed in the courtyard.
There were actually a few lotus flowers swaying in the water tank. Looking at the decoration style here, Su Qi thought back to the general layout of the entire Gu Holy City. Why did he feel that this place had a strong Central Plains style?
The carved eaves, the well-proportioned streets, and the light rain that often falls in the deep mountains, for those who don’t know, you would think that you have arrived in the misty rainy south of the Yangtze River.
Standing at the door of the yard, the neighbor on the left is Qin Na, and the neighbor on the right is Dong Sha. It feels like we are all blessed.
However, when a python crawled towards me, Su Qi's artistic conception disappeared instantly. The python mocked in a rather anthropomorphic way: "You humans are just hypocritical, how can you be like this snake? There are thousands of beautiful snakes in the harem, and you will have descendants." Sun has spread all over the mountains.”
When he said this, the python was full of pride, but Su Qi curled his lips, could it be the same? Besides, ten million? Even if he wanted to, his kidneys wouldn't allow it.
Su Qi, who was just thinking about it, originally wanted to talk about it, but when he saw Qin Na and the others walking out, he chuckled and said, no more joking.
"Brother Snake, I think there are quite a few aborigines here!"
"Brother Snake? This is a strange title, but I would rather have a name of my own. Unfortunately, I haven't had that opportunity yet." The boa constrictor longed to be granted a title, but this title is not as simple as someone giving it a name. , came to his senses, and the python immediately answered Su Qi's question:
"Of course there are aborigines in this Gu Holy City, but this statement is not accurate. Most of the people here are from outside. For example, we now can stay as long as we want, and then multiply from generation to generation."
The python told about the past of Gu Holy City. It didn't know much. Dongsha, Dongyao and even Lao Gutou who came over out of curiosity were also adding.
In short, if people like them who have been recognized don't want to leave, they can choose to stay and live in Gu Holy City.
The accumulation of people from generation to generation has naturally made this city have a lot of people, and in the long run, the inheritance will not be cut off. Therefore, Su Qi vaguely felt that there were many powerful auras here.
Choosing the best among the best has resulted in the Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger of Gu Holy City. No wonder it has become a holy place in the hearts of all Miao villagers.
However, looking at the old Gutou, he seemed to be everywhere, and he especially liked to go here. Su Qi and Boa looked at each other and said, "How about we take a stroll in this city first? I heard that there are more Have you been to the temple?"
"without!"
"Then go and see!"
Pulling Qin Na, Dong Sha and Dong Yao followed immediately behind, but none of them invited Lao Gutou, leaving the old man behind.
After touching his head, Lao Gutou gave a wry smile and wanted to get closer. He didn't expect him to be so wary. He sighed and walked away.
Su Qi, who had walked away, curiously asked Dong Sha: "Then what is the origin of Lao Gutou?"
"What's the origin?" Dongsha's beautiful eyes turned, her waist twisted, and she smiled: "Who knows, we met by chance on the way here. Not to mention, this old man is indeed a bit annoying, and I don't know what he is thinking. .”
Dong Sha, who was quite narcissistic, once thought that the old man was attracted to her, so she said it casually, which made Su Qi laugh.
The group of people just wandered around the Gu Holy City and met many residents here, some with eccentric personalities and some with hospitable people. However, Su Qi and the others, who were always wary in their hearts, just walked on the street. Wandering around, I didn't rush into a certain house.
Slowly exploring his spiritual sense, Su Qi secretly explored every inch of the land here. However, the bricks and stones here seemed to be covered with a veil, causing his spiritual sense to be directly reflected away.
Scratches appeared on the walls, seemingly at random, but Su Qi recalled the Feng Shui knowledge he had learned. Well, it looked like a huge formation layout!
Sighing secretly in his heart, Su Qi's fingertips casually traced the wall. The cold touch of his skin and the pain that pierced his bone marrow made him clearly feel the power of this formation layout.
Unknowingly, when they walked to the center of Gu Holy City, a huge palace appeared in front of several people. The ancient atmosphere hit their faces, and there were many guards here.
They all wore masks and held spears. One person stood every two meters.
Seeing that the palace gate had not yet been opened, Su Qi understood that this should be the temple of Gu Holy City, and Qin Na and the others would participate in the selection in a few days and would enter it.
At this moment, Su Qi suddenly felt sleepiness coming over him, and he yawned unconsciously.
"Why, aren't you sleepy?"
Everyone, who originally looked pious, saw that Su Qi was not paying attention here, and even started to yawn. Not only Qin Na, but also Dong Sha and Boa Snake began to become confused.
There is some evil in the eyes, after all, this is where their faith lies.
"It's okay. Maybe I was injured before and haven't recovered yet." Su Qi made an excuse at random and left quickly. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold on and just lay on the ground.
Qin Na doesn't need to worry about it. After all, the selection has not yet begun, and the little girl has her own thoughts, so she will not be directly plotted.
Seeing Su Qi walking back quickly, Qin Na's face showed concern, while Dong Sha asked curiously.
"He should be fine. Let's go look elsewhere." Changing the topic, Qinna felt that Su Qi's expression was a little strange just now and gave her a look, so it was better to leave him alone at this time.
