Chapter 172: Plan ahead

In the twelve palaces of the Holy Land, on the astrological tower, a guard looked around and walked in carefully.

"Is anyone following you on the way?" On the desk, beside the thick documents, a white old man sat there, whispering in a squinted voice.

"No, I checked that there was no abnormality around me~ Even your guards were not disturbed." After the visitor saluted, he closed the window, bent down and stood there, and said respectfully, "This is the letter from Lord Saga to you."

Old Man Bai took the letter from the other party and did not look at it at the first time. He glanced at the window, then silently looked at the sender for a long time before saying, "You are very good, what's your name?"

"Shiliu, a silver saint of Corvus!" The young man who claimed to be Shiliu once again praised the Golden Mountain and the Jade Pillar.

"Well, I remember you, go down and rest, wait for my reply to Saga." Old Man Bai nodded and said.

"As for orders! Lord Alex~"

Watching Sliu's departure, Alex silently closed the window, raised his eyes and looked at the Pope's Palace, with a slight light floating in his eyes. It took him no idea how long it took to withdraw his gaze.

He picked up Saga's secret letter and looked carefully, looking at it three lines. For a moment, his gray brows were bent gently, his gray pupils suddenly shrank, his face became light and dark, and the power between his hands subconsciously clenched a little, until the paper made a "Sce" sound that attracted Alex's consciousness back.

He sat down slowly, pressed the paper under his hands, and was silent for a moment, and wanted to stand up several times, but sat down several times, looking at the short black words on the white paper, as dazzling as the sunlight.

Finally, Alex sighed and said to himself, "If you want to break, you will break! We are so brave to seek wealth and honor! Oh~ I am old, and this world seems to be the world of young people."

After saying that, the old man shook his clothes and flipped his palms, and fireworks came from the fire. The black and white words in the raging fire rose and bursts of blue smoke, turning into ashes.

The rest of the body shook and the smoke scattered.

The old man narrowed his eyes and returned to the image of the cold and strong priest who was once a high-ranking and powerful person. He flew out of the astrological tower and walked out of the sun. The sun set, and the long shadow gradually moved towards the Pope's Hall.

In the long and deep corridor of the palace, two guards respectfully saluted the chief priest who walked out of the Pope's office.

"Where is Your Majesty?" Alex asked in a deep voice because he had something in his heart.

Alex was at a high position for a long time and had a unique majesty. He asked in a deep and expressionless voice, and the two guards were naturally Alexander.

"Your Majesty is in the backyard!" the two replied anxiously.

At the end of the corridor is the direction to the Temple of the Goddess. There is a clearing space in the backyard of the palace where you can see the sunset but not the sunrise.

The Pope wore a simple robe, rolled up his arms, held a kettle in one hand and a wooden stick in the other, where he watered the flowers and plants growing on the land, loosened the soil, dressed as a country farmer, and did not have the airs of the Pope at all.

Alex came to the apse and stood there quietly, staring at the Pope without saying a word, as if he was unwilling to break this quiet and comfortable environment.

"You are here~" After a long time, the Pope put down the kettle in his hand, straightened his waist, gently patted the soil on his body, and said inadvertently.

"Well, I'm entrusted." Alex pursed his lips and replied softly.

"Drink tea?" The pope walked to the wooden table and asked casually.

"No drink~" Alex replied.

"When people get old, they should learn to enjoy life, experience the natural scenery, flowers, drink tea, and don't add any burden to their shoulders~" The Pope took a sip of tea and looked at the sunset in the distance, as if he was feeling.

At this moment, the sunset and the old man were inadvertently combined together.

Alex also looked up at the sunset, but what he saw was the afterglow of the sun, still bright and warm. Finally, he withdrew his gaze and his eyes were frozen on the flowers and plants.

"The vigorous growth of flowers and plants is inseparable from the warmth of the sun and your irrigation with clear water. The sunshine of the setting sun is still warm, and the old people can still carry a pot to water the flowers. Don't you think?!"

The two old men were playing maneuvers and kept hinting at each other, but the concepts of life were originally different.

"Ha~" the pope grinned, put down the teacup, and looked at the Alex standing on the side with a deep sense. Once upon a time, we were young boys and had glorious years, but time made youth no longer traces. Perhaps, when people get old, their hearts are tired and soft. Looking at their brothers who are as old as before, the pope suddenly appeared in this position and was very lonely.

With a wave of his sleeve, a chessboard appeared on the wooden table, with a pair of endgames and a pair of Go that had been playing for a long time. The black and white are clearly distinguished, and the yin and yang are in harmony, as if the world is used as the chessboard and sentient beings are used as the chess pieces. This is the chessboard of the Pope, the Holy Land of the World, but it is also the chessboard of all living beings under the sky.

"Sit and play chess with me." The Pope knelt on the edge of the chessboard and waved his long sleeves.

Alex frowned, then relaxed and walked up.

The Pope holds white sect, and Alex gives black sect, you next son, I next son, for a moment, black and white, like two big dragons lying on the chessboard and strangling each other.

The pope had a white piece between his hands, looked at the black and white dragons on the chessboard, and said inadvertently, "Look, life is like chess, pursuit, struggle, struggle! While walking, the general situation has been completed, and when you look back, the world has changed."

After saying that, he pointed to the two big dragons on the chessboard and said, "I can't help myself~"

A sigh, a secret word.

Alex picked up the black piece and continued to fight against the white piece, whispering, "Some people say that fighting with the sky, fighting with the earth, fighting with people is endless fun, not to mention that this chess piece is dead, and people are alive, but where the chess piece wants to go depends on the person playing chess!"

Alex said as he looked up at the Pope, his eyes reluctant to leave for a long time.

His words were very explicit, both a forced palace and a compliment. The chess pieces were thoughtful, but in the end they were still restricted by the chess player.

"Oh~" The pope picked up the darkspot, pondered for a moment but put it down, met the long-lasting gaze that Alex cast, and said, "If you have anything to do, just say it directly. Our brothers for so many years, there is no need to beat around the bush for so long."

I was beaten around the bush, but you were playing Tai Chi with me. For a moment, Alex's mouth twitched a little.

"The choice of the Pope's successor is based on fairness and justice. As a scale, the world must be heartless. Alas~ I received a letter from Japan's Saga a few days ago. I didn't want to bother Your Majesty, but the true feelings in the letter are true. Your Majesty is upright." A big hat was covered with the preparation of Alex's negative consciousness, and then said, "The Japanese negative consciousness "Bo Snake" and the Central Asian pseudo-god God Allah are incomparable. Back then, the seal of Oro Snake came from His Majesty Alatya's thunder strike, and the seal of Allah has been sent more to the Golden Saint Seiya."

"In this way, Saga should not say that the "big snake" is sealed. In the end, life may not be guaranteed. The death of Gemini is small, and the "big snake" harms the world is big. I think the holy land should make some adjustments, rather than being closely limited to the dispute between successors."

This sentence is righteous, every sentence is for the public, and his face is not blushing, and his heart is not beating. The Pope looked at Alex and saw that this guy has grown abilities. In fact, he originally did not expect Saga to seal the "Big Snake", not to mention that the seal of the "Big Snake" is still very solid and has not loosened. The real fighters in Central Asia have almost been eliminated... In any case, Saga has no time.

"There is no extra reinforcements to be sent in the Holy Land now. What do the chief priest think?" The Pope took a sip of the tea ceremony.

"It's better to settle for the second best. Eight masters gathered it, and Xibo Feng Storm Goniz replaced the "Big Snake" and sealed it. What does your Majesty think!?"
