The Big Devil vs. the Dark Villain

The chief sat there in dignified silence without any change of emotion.

The high priest looked at the totem on Nan Zhiyi's forehead and asked again with complicated eyes.

"Xiao Zhiyi, are you really not the beast god servant? There is no one else here, tell the truth to the high priest."

"No." Nan Zhiyi said without hesitation, not taking the other party's soft and hard tactics seriously.

When the high priest heard his denial again, his originally wavering thoughts became even more firm.

Even though there was already a Beast God messenger, for some reason he felt inexplicably close to him when he looked at the Beast God's blessing mark on the other's forehead.

Compared to that guy of unknown origin, he would rather believe that Xiao Zhiyi is the messenger of the Beast God, but he will not tell the chief this time.

Since the other party firmly believes that the boy Aqian is the messenger of the Beast God, then so be it. Anyway, the Lord Beast God does not want others to know where he is.

What they did was too much. Lord Beast God will be angry and it is right for him to ignore us.

Thinking about it, he slowly spoke again, "Feitian has already told you, now that the Beast God's messenger has appeared, he will come to our Swift Tribe to inspect in about ten days.

I discussed it with the chief, and in order to show our respect for the Beast God's messenger, we decided to stay in the tribe to receive him.

So I'll have to trouble you to go to the Beast God Ruins with Wu Qian, Mu Xuan and the others to pray."

Is this to get me out of the way? It seems that they have gone to great lengths to avoid encountering us, the real and fake beast god messengers.

"Okay, how long will it take for us to set off?" Nan Zhiyi responded with a faint smile, as if she didn't know their plan.

The high priest nodded with satisfaction, and spoke more amiably, "We will set out in three days. During this time, I will let Xiao Zhiliao get to know you better, okay?

She is still young, I hope you can take care of her. I owe you a favor."

"You are too kind, High Priest. Little Zhi is very cute. We are friends and I will definitely help if I can."

"Then there's nothing else to do. I'll go down first."

Nan Zhiyi bowed and after getting their permission, he slowly retreated.

Mu Xuan came up to him, and seeing that he was fine, he nodded at him and walked inside.

Little Zhiliao came out from nowhere, came behind Nan Zhiyi, stood on tiptoe, and covered his eyes. "Guess who I am?"

"Little Zhi."

"wrong."

"Geya?" Nan Zhiyi teased her with a smile, suddenly grabbed one of her arms, grabbed her, and pressed her body down.

Little Zhiliao begged for mercy in pain, muttering unhappily, "Nan Zhiyi, Ayi, Xiao Ayi, I was wrong, please let me go, it hurts."

"You are really going too far. You clearly guessed it, but how can you change your mind and guess someone else? And you still do it when you say you will."

As she spoke, she poked her red hand with a wronged look on her face, her little pearls falling out.

"You're cheating, I guessed it right, but you didn't let go."

Nan Zhiyi said mischievously, looking with interest at Bie Amu who was standing behind her in a dull manner, with a hostile look on his face, wanting to tear her into pieces.

"Is he going out with us too?"

“He wants to protect Grandpa High Priest, so he won’t go out with us.

However, Sister Geya and Brother Wu Qian are here during this period, so he can move freely.

He came to play with me.”

Xiao Zhiliao looked at Bie Amu and said sweetly, then pulled him in front of Nan Zhiyi and introduced them to each other.

Nan Zhiyi nodded at him politely as a greeting, but Beimumu responded in a silent way.

"By the way, will Xiao Geya go with us?" Nan Zhiyi looked at the earthen house boredly while chatting with Xiao Zhiliao.

The earth and stone house is generally yellowish-brown in color, with only some simple wooden and stone furniture and weapons.

On the rack nearby, marinated meats were drying.

There are rough pottery jars below, which are similar to modern ones, but the appearance is not so exquisite and strange. One is filled with water and the other has a lid, which should be used to pickle wild vegetables.

"She won't go with us. She wants to learn from the high priest." Little Zhiliao jumped around and found that Nan Zhiyi was curious, so he started to introduce things to him.

"This rack is for drying meat. Just coat it with coarse salt and place it in the vat for a while. Once it's soaked through, you can hang it up to dry. It can be preserved for a long time."

“There are also fruits and edible weeds that can be preserved there and eaten after being soaked in coarse salt.

But sometimes it comes out sour and tastes bad, and sometimes it is crisp and delicious; sometimes it has all kinds of white, yellow, and green hairs..."

The little cicada introduced them one by one as if he were counting his own treasures, with a face full of pride.

"Many of these things are not available in other tribes. The high priest learned them after communicating with the Beast God. He is very powerful."

“Yeah, it’s really amazing.”

"What about you? What's your tribe like? I heard it's very cold there, and there are very few animals. Life must be very hard, right?"

"It's not that bad actually. Our snow season is just longer than here, and the sun season is shorter. Food can be found if you work hard.

As long as there is a possibility of avalanches, falling ice and other disasters, other times are similar. "

When Xiao Zhiyi saw that Nan Zhiyi mentioned her original tribe, he looked lost and sad, and seemed a little at a loss.

After thinking for a while, he took out a purple-red fruit from the room. "This is for you to eat. Don't be sad after you eat it, okay?"

Nan Zhiyi watched her take out the fist-sized snake fruit, shook his head, and found a stone bench in the yard to sit down, "You eat it, I ate when I came here, so I'm not hungry."

"Okay." Xiao Zhile said eagerly, stuffed the fruit to Bie Amu who was standing aside, sat next to Nan Zhiyi, propped up his head and looked at him, occasionally knocking his head in annoyance.

Woohoo~ Does my new friend hate me? Stupid little cicada, you know that the other party’s tribe is gone, why do you still bring up those sad things?

Woohoo... Normally, when I'm unhappy, I feel better after eating something, but he was so sad that he couldn't eat. He must be extremely sad, as if he was going to break into pieces.

Woohoo…damn you.

Nan Zhiyi was the most sensitive to emotions, and she consoled him in a cold voice, "Don't think too much, I'm just thinking about the problem.

How do you think Lord Beast God knows so many things that we don't know?"

"Master Beast God is a god, isn't it normal for him to be omniscient and omnipotent?"

"If He is truly omniscient and omnipotent, then He also knew about the snowstorm that our tribe encountered. Why didn't He help us?"

“Lord Beast God loves all the living beings on the Beast God Continent.

But the continent is too big. If we interfere in everything, not to mention whether we can handle it, wouldn’t it be unfair to other creatures?

"He usually seldom interferes with the affairs of the Beast God Continent except in cases of genocide."
