The Happy Journey of the Bright Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 234 Soldiers meet each other
After stopping Que Xie, Li Chen turned his head to look at the soldiers leading the way, and said in a deep voice, "They are carrying weapons, so they won't go in. We didn't bring weapons, so we will go in with you."

The lead soldier took a look at several people, then nodded slightly: "That's fine, guests please."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and led Li Chen and Huaying to continue walking in.

Walk up the stone steps behind the statue of the goddess, and after a while, you arrive at the entrance of the main hall.

Li Chen turned around and looked, and found that this place was already at the same level as the goddess' abdomen. A corridor stretched from the entrance of the temple to the goddess' body, and passed through the body to reach the goddess's holding hands.

Before Li Chen could take a closer look, the soldier leading the way whispered, "The high priest is inside, please come in, both of you."

Li Chen nodded slightly, exchanged glances with Huaying beside him, opened the curtain in front of him, and walked in.

The main hall is very spacious, and there are more than a dozen people standing in it, including men and women, and several old people.

Li Chen sized him up slightly, then looked up at the figure on the high platform in front of him.

As the two of Li Chen entered, this figure also slowly turned around. This figure should be Loulan's High Priest.

This person was wearing a long orange-yellow dress, a white cloak, and a golden scepter nearly two meters in his hand. He looked about 30 years old.

Li Chen sized up the high priest, then clasped his hands together and said, "I'm Li Chen, I've seen the high priest."

The high priest of Loulan sized Li Chen up and down for a while, and then said, "I heard that the guest came from the Central Plains and wants to go to the Western Regions to collect medicine?"

Li Chen nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, I have been waiting to enter the desert for more than ten days. I saw this place today, and I want to come here to rest before going to the Western Regions."

The high priest looked up and down again, and then, with a wave of his hand, a metal cage fell from the sky, trapping Li Chen and Huaying inside.

Li Chen looked at the cage, then raised his head to look at the high priest, and said in a deep voice, "What is the high priest's intention? If you don't want us to rest here, let's go. There is no need for such a big battle, right?"

The high priest sneered, took a few steps forward, stared at Li Chen and said, "Do you still want to pretend? You said you came from the Central Plains. Loulan and the Central Plains are separated by an endless desert. How can you use your empty hands in this desert?" survive?"

Li Chen was stunned for a moment, and said, "Just because of this, you are going to lock us up?"

The high priest said in a deep voice: "No outsider has come into my Loulan for nearly a hundred years. If there is no guidance, you will not be able to find it here. If you can come here, it means that our warriors outside have been killed by you."

The corner of Li Chen's mouth twitched: "Why didn't your warrior guide us here?"

The high priest looked at Li Chen and said, "If our warriors guided you here, they would definitely give you tokens, but until now, I haven't found that you have the tokens of Loulan warriors in your hand."

Li Chen's face turned dark, and he hunted geese all day long, but unexpectedly, he was pecked in the eyes by geese.

That old man Lu is not a good person either. When he parted, he emphasized to himself not to hurt the people of Loulan, but he didn't expect to let him go.

Li Chen shook his head and sighed, looked up at the high priest and said, "Why do you want to show your intelligence in such a place? If you pretend to be stupid, wouldn't that be good for you and me?"

Looking at Li Chen's eyes, the High Priest felt flustered for no reason, waved his hand at the soldiers in the hall, and said loudly, "Come here, take them down."

Li Chen smiled, and with a wave of his hand, Li Shenjian appeared in his hand, and then he slashed forward, and Li Chen cut open the metal cage that looked very strong.

Only now did the soldiers in the hall react, and they all raised their axes and rushed towards Li Chen.

Li Chen shook his head, the fighting power of these soldiers was far inferior to those in Chu Palace.

With a flick of his figure, he disappeared into the cage, and when he reappeared, he was already behind a soldier, and with a slight effort, the soldier collapsed to the ground.

Using the same method, within a few blinks, all the soldiers in the main hall fainted.

The high priest's complexion changed drastically, and just as he was about to speak, Li Chen had already appeared in front of her eyes, with Li Shenjian pointed at her throat.

At this time, the people in the hall panicked. Several men picked up the ax that the soldier had dropped on the ground, pointed at Li Chen, and shouted in a panic: "Let go of the high priest!"

Li Chen glanced at them, and then, a strong killing intent rose from his body, and those people couldn't stand anymore, and collapsed in the hall.

Shaking his head, Li Chen looked back at Hua Ying who was walking out of the cage, and said with a smile: "Go out and inform them, let them come here, and also, let them try not to hurt anyone."

Huaying nodded, turned around and walked towards the outside of the hall. The high priest was in her hands, and no one outside dared to move.

Moreover, there are no masters in Loulan. With Huaying's second-rank skill, no one can stop her.

Li Chen then turned around, looked at the high priest, and said lightly: "Why bother? If you don't tell the truth, then we can get along peacefully for a while. Now, you can only be reduced to a prisoner."

The high priest is worthy of being the leader of Loulan. After a while, he has calmed down. Looking at Li Chen, he asked in a deep voice, "Who are you? What is the purpose of coming to Loulan?"

Li Chen said leisurely: "Loulan has been isolated from the world for many years, you don't know my name even if I tell you."

"As for the purpose of coming to Loulan, I came for the sword of the Demon God of War and Chi You, so, is the high priest willing to part with each other?"

The high priest looked a little ugly, looked at Li Chen and said, "Soldier Demon God and Chi You's Sword? Are you a descendant of Chi You?"

Li Chen shook his head: "No, I have nothing to do with Chi You, these two things are my own ideas."

The high priest was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Then you know, the sword of the Demon God of War and Chi You is terrifying. Once they get out of control, the world will fall into chaos again."

Li Chen smiled: "These two things are indeed terrifying, but they are only for others. For me, they are just two useful weapons."

"Before I came in, I had a chat with Old Man Lu, your Loulan warrior. These two things are huge hidden dangers for you Loulan. You might as well leave them to me."

The high priest lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "Is the Loulan warrior still alive?"

Li Chen nodded: "He has no enmity with me. I wouldn't kill him, but I didn't expect that he would put me together."

The high priest breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and then looked at Li Chen: "I am very grateful that you didn't kill him, but the sword of the soldier demon and Chi You is of great importance, and I cannot hand it over to you."
