Loyal dogs walk everywhere [Comprehensive + Sword III]

"Master Tianxiang, the birthday is about to begin." A low-ranking priest in a dark green dress and a white robe was speaking outside the door.

After a while, when the priest was anxious to remind again, there was a gentle response from the palace room: "Understood, I'll go over right away."

Not long after, the low-level priests waiting outside the door saw the young man stepping out of the palace room.It is one of the few high-ranking priests in Liuyue City, the Priest of Heaven.

The clothing on his body is the uniform that all high priests must wear except the high priest. It is similar to that of the low priests, but it is much more complicated and grand.

His immediate superior knew that he had trouble waking up, so he specially sent someone to invite him in advance.After all, Shennong's birthday is the most sacred festival in Liuyue City every year, and there is no room for loss.

The young man was walking ahead, and the low priest followed him consciously.When the former did not speak, the latter naturally remained silent, with clear boundaries between ranks.

Originally, if it was normal, the young man should be able to talk to each other in a gentle manner.It's just that the annual Shennong's birthday reminded him that he had lived in this world for another year... unconsciously, he sank into his own thoughts.

He came to this world...or came back?

It's been almost ten years.

Gu Chi thought about it, and at the same time, he walked slowly across the brick-paved ground, the sound of footsteps was very light, and the pace was very regular.

In the last world, what he saw until the last moment was a pair of silver-gray eyes... Different from the usual emotionless, when he saw those eyes, they were filled with anxiety and panic.

It was like the expression of the other party when he was a child, when he woke up and couldn't see him.

Thinking of this, Gu Chi sighed in a very low voice.Knowing from the location of the wound that it was Daogan's sword, he knew at that time that his time regression will eventually reach the end...

But at the same time as the discovery, consciousness also began to become blurred.He only had time to raise his hand to touch the other's cheek, and gently rubbed the corners of those eyes full of anxiety and panic with his fingertips for a while.

In fact, Gu Chi has been avoiding, or not daring to think deeply about a question.

He didn't dare to think deeply about how the other party would feel when he met a man who had no past memory in the future...

How it feels to witness his death again.

This question is so painful...

"Master Tianxiang?" Hearing the sigh of the young man in front, the lower priest who followed behind couldn't help asking with concern.She was quite familiar with the adult in front of her. She had always been a mild-tempered and talkative person, and she would never be as silent as she is today.

Hearing this, Gu Chi stopped in his tracks, turned his head and said to the slightly frowned eyebrows who also stopped behind him, "It's nothing, Li Yu doesn't have to worry about me."

"Yes." The low-ranking priest who Gu Chi called 'Li Yu' nodded, describing the rules as meticulous.

After that, the two arrived at the place where Shennong's birthday was held, which was located on a round platform near the statue in the center of Liuyue City.

Shennong's birthday is so solemn and sacred, so far, no one dares to be late or absent, so when Gu Chi arrived, he could see several rows of priests wearing the same costumes.

The positions of the priests are arranged according to their status. The closer to the high platform, the higher the status.

And there are only two people who can stand on the high platform, one is the Lord of Liuyue City, and the other is the High Priest of Liuyue City.But the positions of the two are naturally different, they cannot stand side by side, so the city lord has to stand at the highest point, and the high priest needs to be one step lower.

The current High Priest wears a dark gold mask that covers his eyes, but actually looks more like a crown from a distance.Wearing a white robe, the cuffs and hem are embroidered with some kind of extremely ancient secret patterns inherited from the Lieshan tribe.

At this time, Gu Chi had also reached the first position on the left column.

"Let's start." Everyone who should be there has arrived, and Cang Lan, the city lord, also made a sound.

Once a year, the sacrifice at the beginning of Shennong's birthday has long been familiar to everyone.

Let the priests pray to the gods to express their gratitude to the gods, and at the same time pray for the people in the new year. This is the first part of Shennong's birthday.

The celebration that followed was a rare and lively time of the year in Liuyue City, and it lasted for a few days, and it was also a rare short time of the year for the people in the long-suffering city to feel happy.

"Ah Han, are you going to hide in the temple again this year?" Gu Chi didn't use interrogative sentences, after all, the other party has always done this in previous years.

The white-robed priest turned around, still holding the wooden staff in his right hand, the mask covering his eyes.At this time, the location is the entrance to the road leading to the temple, and it is far away from the noisy crowd in the celebration.

Independent of it, calm as a lonely moon in the sky.

Shen Han: "..."

The silence didn't last long, and soon he spoke in a very calm and low voice: "This seat has reminded you..."

"Being too close to you, be careful of causing suspicion from others." Before the other party could continue, Gu Chi finished the sentence for him.

Although the original words of the other party are actually 'consequences at your own risk'.

"The city lord does not object, even if other people want to be suspicious, it will have no effect on me."

The lineage of the city lord is a faction that has dominated the power of Liuyue City for thousands of years. At first, it was because of tradition, and later it was because of the growing strength of the lineage of the city lord. Later, its power was unshakable.

However, even so, the people of the city lord's faction are still not friendly to the high priests who have the same great power as themselves, especially the priest Ziwei, who is also the high priest, is suppressing everywhere.

It seems that if they don't try their best to suppress them, they can't feel at ease.

However, the status and position of the Priest of Tianxiang is different from other priests. According to the rules, the city lord first, then Priest Ziwei, and then the Priest of Seven Kills, etc...

But in fact, the position of the "priest of heaven" is actually independent of the priests, and is not controlled by the high priest, but directly obeys the orders of the city lord.

The previous heavenly priests have a very special ability, which can predict the future.Also because of this extremely special ability, their status and position are independent of others.

The current city lord is a sensible person, and he is aware of the various shortcomings in his lineage, but even if he is sitting in the seat of the city lord, it is difficult to change this old trouble for a while.

"You always said that Ye'er was too shy to allow him to hide in the temple, but you ended up hiding yourself." Gu Chi stated, shaking his head lightly.

After watching it for so many years, he really couldn't bear to see these two people who couldn't express their emotions to each other at all.At the beginning, he didn't know much about the person in front of him who occupied the position of high priest, but after ten years, he could be regarded as familiar.

Knowing that the other party is not really a cold-blooded and ruthless person, at least he still has warmth for his children and cares everywhere... Although most of them leave no traces, some of them are in strange ways that few people can understand, and those who are cared for do not understand. understand.

The white-robed priest's thin lips continued to be closed, the mask covered his eyes and he couldn't see the expression in his eyes, but he said coldly without saying a word.

In the end, he raised his staff and turned around halfway. His voice was low and his emotions didn't fluctuate much: "If you want, you can spend more nights with me."

After turning his back completely: "Ye'er is too lonely by himself, he likes you very much."

"It would be great if you could speak so directly in front of Ye'er." Gu Chi coughed lowly, seeing how anxious the father and son get along with each other.

"Ye'er hopes that you will be present at the celebration every year, but it seems that his hope this year will be in vain again." Before Shen Han could take a few steps, Gu Chi added another sentence.

Sure enough, the other party stopped slightly.

"You also know that during the celebration, most parents will bring their children to play...Ye'er is alone every year."

But at this moment, Shen Han replied, "Aren't you here?"

Gu Chi choked on this question, and then realized something was wrong.

First of all, since Shen Han knew that he was there, it meant that the other party might have been watching from a distance, and it was not as he had shown at the beginning... back to the temple.

Furthermore, even if he didn't wait and see in person, this move fully showed the other party's full attention to Shen Ye.

Gu Chi covered his lips again and coughed lowly: "You are his father, I am with you, how can it be the same."

However, the other party only repeated the previous sentence in a flat tone: "Ye'er likes you very much, and he will be happy if you accompany him."

After all, this person just didn't want to show too much care and concern in front of Shen Ye, so Gu Chida said bluntly: "Ye'er likes you more, he will be happier if you accompany him."

Shen Han: "..."

Although there was a stalemate, Gu Chi finally brought this unwilling person to Shen Ye...

Then the two saw the bright smile on the face of the young child, which was rarely seen.
