Not a Witch

"Master Ge Luo has served as a priestess in the shrine for more than 60 years to appease and mediate the dragon veins. No one in these mountains knows the name of the priestess." Cai Wei explained.

"Is that so, but...you are not from the rich family." The woman looked at Granny Ge Luo's face, and finally said these words slowly, as if puzzled and doubtful in her voice.

The dragon veins in the Ximu Mountains are filthy, most of them are disordered and out of control, and it is extremely difficult to reconcile them. After a long time, they will be corroded by the magic power of the Nine Nethers. Anyone who thinks about it is a bad job.Generally, it is fine for the Youqi clan to take charge of it internally, but Granny Ge Luo is not from the Youqi clan, so why would she waste her time here to take charge of this matter.

"Ah, this..." Hearing such words, Caiwei also turned her head in surprise, and looked at Granny Ge Luo, as if she had never thought about this question before, because she subconsciously believed that Granny Ge Luo also had a problem. family.

"People have their own ideas and choices, and this is not a rare thing." Granny Ge Luo still shook her head flatly.

"You came here from Luojing, do you have any specific business, maybe I can provide some help." Granny Ge Luo asked the woman's reason for coming again.

The woman also knew that now was not the time to be entangled in such things, so she began to talk about it. "It's like this..."

Afterwards, she talked about her own origin, which turned out to be from the Marigold Xuanhua Mansion of the Plantagenet Dynasty.The predecessor of this organization was the pro-military side of the founding monarch of the Plantagenet Dynasty, and it was mainly responsible for intelligence-related matters.After the establishment of the dynasty, it became the supervisory agency of the dynasty.

This time, I also came here because I received a secret report that the state shepherd of Xiyouzhou deliberately concealed the chaos under the rule, and was suspected of deceiving the emperor.I don't want to find any real phenomenon and evidence in Xiyouzhou, but after arriving here, I heard that there are some changes in the Ximu Mountains beside me.It can be regarded as missing the auxiliary car.

"I see." Grandma Ge Luo nodded.

"Then what are your plans, girl? You must be aware of the crisis in the evening mountains now."

Regarding this, the woman pondered for a while.

"Although I have prepared for this visit, I didn't expect such a big event, but as a member of the Jinzhan Xuanhua Mansion, it is not too much for me to participate in it." She recalled what she saw in the mansion back then. History, slowly narrated.

"After the defeat of the Kingdom of Yu, Lord Chifeng and the immortals came to deal with the troubles, but the dragon veins and caves here were in chaos and could not be cured. Later, disciples from the "Xianyu School", "Taiyin Palace" and "Xuanhua Mansion" were recruited to assist deal with."

"Among them, the 'Taiyin Palace' laid a seal on the ground of Jiuyou, coincident with the lunar moon in the night sky, so as to restrain and seal those broken caves."

"'Xuanhua Mansion' sent witches and consecratory priests to lead and cut off the dragon veins connected to the surrounding states and counties to prevent the spread of the dark energy."

"The 'Xiangyu Sect' left the disciples of Jiuyouyiyi to tour the mountains to prevent outsiders from breaking the seal and to suppress the scattered demons."

"It's a pity that more than 300 years ago, Jiyue Taiyin Palace participated in the battle for succession. Because of the failure of the struggle, its faction was disbanded, its disciples scattered, and the classics were also taken into the custody of Xuanhua Mansion. The disciples also formed their own school many years ago and became Ning Zi Zhao Ye Palace."

"Although we don't see any disciples from Zhaoye Palace now, it is one of our missions for our Jinzhan Xuanhua Mansion to intervene in this matter, and it is not considered an overreach."

After listening to his explanation, Lorraine Hill finally spoke at this moment.

"It's just that the current situation in Zhaoye Palace may not be as agreed in those years..." She also told what she saw in the residence yesterday.

After listening to this, the woman was also very surprised, she didn't expect such a fierce internal strife to happen in the door-to-door sect.

"I'm afraid we won't be able to solve this matter in a short time." She quickly thought about the situation.

"Now that Xiyou Continent is the closest, we can go there first to ask for help, and the Zhao Ye Palace Master faction, it may take half a month to rush there, and it will probably be a month later when we come back, it is really too late." She said to herself Of course, this is estimated at her own speed.

Lorraine Hill looked at the woman, and asked carefully: "Do you have any way to get the state shepherd to send troops?"

"This shouldn't be a big problem." She nodded confidently and proudly, as the supervisor of the Xuanhua Mansion, no official would be afraid to see it.

"Okay." Although Lorraine Hill felt that the rumored state shepherd was not easy to deal with, it was not easy to deliberately tear things down at this moment.

Seeing the two people in the main hall analyzing, Granny Ge Luo nodded slightly, then took out the silk cloth from the side drawer, and began to write quickly.

"I will write down the current situation. This time, please help me deliver the letter." After she finished speaking, she rolled up the letter and handed it to the two of them.

"Okay." Lorraine Hill didn't mind running errands again.It's just that the woman in the hall seems to have other ideas.

"Can you allow me to visit the deep valley for half a day before going back?" As a member of the Xuanhua Mansion, she couldn't believe many things based on other people's descriptions, and she had to check it out with her own eyes.

"That's fine. I'm going to trouble the imperial envoy." Granny Ge Luo replied.

"That's disturbing."

"By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Bu Moyin, and I come from Luo Jing's Bu family."

Granny Ge Luo nodded thoughtfully, and then the woman withdrew from the shrine for the time being, and Cai Wei who was beside her had to follow.

After seeing him walk away, Granny Ge Luo spoke slowly.

"It's no wonder he's so caring, it's actually the descendant of the Bu family."

"Who is the Bu family?" Lorraine Hill asked curiously.

"The Bu family is one of the six famous aristocratic families in Luojing. Its ancestors were the queens of the founder of the country. Although they have risen and fallen several times, they have gradually stabilized. Although they can't affect the government now, the reputation of the family has been passed down. Known to all."

"Which other six families are there?" the girl became interested by chance.

"Hehe, I don't know much about this. After all, I have been in the valley all the year round. I have only heard of its general name. The six major families in Luojing are 'Bu', 'Lian', 'Zhao', 'Ye', 'Bi' and 'Bu'. But Jia Lan, you don't need to pay too much attention to these aristocratic families, there are so many wizards in the world today, and these aristocratic families are only because they have produced celebrities in the past, so don't be too trustworthy." Granny Ge Luo was afraid that Lorraine Hill would be frightened by the names of these inherited families , and then explain in detail.

"Nowadays, the dynasty seeks scholars from the world. It is no longer the monopoly of the family in the past. It is more than 300 years ago. Only in this way can the aristocratic family be separated from these great sects. Speaking of which, the Moon Sacrifice Taiyin Palace also disappeared during this transformation."

"It's just that these aristocratic families are after all meritorious service. It's not easy to kill them all. It will chill the hearts of the old people. Seeing that they no longer act as demon queens, the dynasty will gradually restore peace and no longer continue to be hostile."

Just when Lorraine Hill asked Grandma Ge Luo about some official positions and institutions in the dynasty, Bu Moyin also quickly watched in the valley.

After she was rescued by Lorraine Hill last night, the ghost in her body was also easily disposed of by Lorraine Hill, so she didn't suffer any trauma, and it was convenient to move at this moment.

Seeing these wealthy clans walking around in the valley, making deals and talking, their eyes seemed to be very interested, but due to time constraints, Bu Moyin asked the girls around him.

"Caiwei, is this valley always so lively?"

"No, no, this is actually a very rare situation. After all, there are not many places in Yanluo Mountain where black barley can be grown. If we all gather here, I'm afraid everyone will starve to death." The girl waved her hands hastily.

"Starved to death? How could it be?" Moyin looked in disbelief. This young lady who grew up in Luojing couldn't understand that there would be a large-scale famine in the dynasty.

"That's right." Caiwei's voice was also a little low.

"Sister Moyin is from outside, what kind of life do you guys live outside..."

"This..." Although Bu Moyin knew the situation outside, she didn't know how to explain it to the girl at this moment, because she had never seen many terms and things before, so naturally she couldn't understand them.

...

"...Hey, what is a fish? Sister Moyin." After hearing this, Moyin began to describe it with gestures.

...

"Wow, isn't it so beautiful, and it has a shiny shell." Caiwei's eyes sparkled with wonder.

"No, it's not a shell. How should I put it? It's scales, just a small piece stacked together." Moyin had to explain again, and at this time she gradually discovered that although there are many people in this deep valley, the other The types of goods are extremely poor, and there are only a few kinds that come and go.

Black barley, black linen, simple metal utensils, etc., other than black, it is even difficult to see other colors.

...

"Have you always lived like this?" Looking at the thin figure with dry skin on the side of the road, the woman who came from Luo Jing finally felt sympathetic.

"Well, it's always been like this." Caiwei answered naturally.

"But isn't this too pitiful..." She looked at the dry, unpalatable and hard black barley cake in her hand, and felt a little sore in her cheeks after chewing.

"Why do you say it's pitiful? In fact, Caiwei thinks it's normal." The little girl looked puzzled.

"Uh..." Mo Yin was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say, or whether to say it or not.In the end it just turned into a silent sigh.

"Well, I'm full, thank you Xiaocaiwei, next time my sister will bring you something delicious. Well, how about the goldfish cake at the Luojing Autumn Moon Lantern Festival?"

"Although I don't know what it looks like, I'd like to thank Sister Moyin first." Caiwei smiled and nodded.

Seeing the innocent smile of the girl in front of her, Bu Moyin suddenly felt a sense of responsibility and mission slowly descending on her shoulders. Maybe this is the reason why she gave up her comfortable life and joined Jinzhan Xuanhua Mansion

"Then, let's say goodbye here first, my sister will go back first this time, and find some helpers for everyone." Bu Moyin finally stopped to patrol the valley.

"Yeah." Caiwei just thought that this sister was speaking ordinary words.

"Then it's settled."

The sun gradually rose into the sky, part of the sunlight shone into the valley, and Bu Moyin finally waved goodbye to Caiwei and walked towards the shrine.

Chapter 82 Xiyou Prefecture

While Bu Moyin was patrolling the valley, Lorraine Hill was not idle, but was thinking about other methods. Although Xiyouzhou was the closest to here, it was not [-]% able to send troops, especially after listening to Granny Ge Luo just now. After explaining to her, Lorraine Hill felt even more so.

Still have to leave a way out or hope.

When she thought this way, she took out the gem of the dead spirit and called out its ghost soul.

"Now we may not be able to reach Mushan Continent in time, so I can only trouble you to inform Zhaoye Palace. Besides, you are originally a disciple of Zhaoye Palace, so you can win people's trust more." Lorraine Hill said to this soul The body enjoined and said.

"If it's safe on the road, I'll let the bird beside me protect you, as long as you help guide the way." Afterwards, she summoned the blue dark crow beside her, whose black eyes were curiously looking at the cloud-like soul.

"No problem." The ghost transformed by the Zhaoye Palace disciple replied.

"That's good." Lorraine Hill nodded, and felt that this guy was too weak now, and he was afraid that the wind would blow away on the road, or some accident would happen, and he wanted to help him strengthen his strength.

After some exchanges and inquiries, Lorraine Hill took out the undead gem, meditated silently, and then began to carefully manipulate it.

The shrine at noon was peaceful and quiet, with only a few chirping birds and cicadas coming from the woods next to the shrine.

In the main hall, a silver-haired girl closed her eyes slightly, and as she recited a spell, her hair slowly floated up, and the gems in front of her body also turned into delicate and transparent silk threads, wrapping and covering the soul body, and then slowly Slowly seep into it.

"Follow my instructions..." The ethereal voice sounded in the shrine, and the ghost also began to absorb the magic power of the undead that was constantly infiltrating.

Just like that night in Hoplander many years ago, Lorraine Hill began to guide the soul body in front of him to advance to the sequence of necromancers.

As the quiet magic power flowed, the originally vague soul slowly solidified, as if it had gradually turned from a transparent cloud into a liquid.And a transparent blue extraordinary core in its body also slowly formed.

After an hour like this, this weak soul was promoted to Necromancer Sequence 3o Night Watcher Spirit, with preliminary self-protection ability.

"I don't know exactly what method Zhaoye Palace is practicing now, but the method I gave you is the Nine Serenities of the Xiangyu Sect, the line of nourishing the soul and stabbing the soul. Its practice method is peaceful, focusing on Cultivate your own soul, strengthen your spirit body and use it as a means of attack." Lorraine Hill simply explained.

Seeing that he had finished all this, Granny Ge Luo on the side only interrupted.

"You kid, you're really messing around, don't do this kind of thing lightly in the future." She was referring to the thing that Lorraine Hill had just helped the ghost condense the core to advance.

"This kind of behavior is too dangerous, like a blind man teaching another person to chop vegetables. If you are not careful, the core will explode, causing serious injuries or even death." Then Granny Ge Luo patiently explained the reason.

It's like never empathizing with one another. One can't know the other's delicate feelings, and can't get any feedback, and advancing in such a blind environment is simply gambling, or the kind with a very low winning rate.

"I see, mother-in-law." The girl blinked, trying to get away with it.

Of course she knows the danger, but as the original fourth soul body, she can contact and perceive the feelings of other soul bodies, and this is not a rigid process without feedback.It's just that she couldn't explain this to Granny Ge Luo, so she had to play cute and get along.

However, to speed up the advancement of others in this way, reaching Sequence Three is the limit, and Sequence Four has to face the test of illusions from the heart, and outsiders can't help.

After a while, the promoted ghost finally condensed into a clear translucent entity in the air, and it was no longer a cloud like before.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Jialan." His voice was a little cold, as if he hadn't adapted to speaking in ghost form, but looking at his figure and face, he was unexpectedly a girl.

"You're welcome, it's thanks to you this time that we know such an important thing." Lorraine Hill shook his head and continued to ask.

"Is it better now?"

"Well, it's much better now." She turned around a little briskly and happily, and then bowed her head again.
