The forest shadow falls into the stream, you can hear the gurgling sound, see the algae floating in the water, the clouds will become bright after the moon passes, and disappear into the ink after the moon passes.
Amidst the sound of rustling leaves, only the small window on the bamboo house was covered with yellow paper, dimly lit by candles, and speechless.
The rough window paper reflects two figures, one is crouching in front of the window working hard on his desk, and the other is standing in front of the window with a tall and slim figure.
The figure sitting at the desk suddenly straightened up, put down his white quill, put a high bundle of silver threads on the top of his head, wore a thin gray robe, and said casually: "How many people are left?"
The other figure was silent for a moment, with his long hair disheveled, and replied solemnly: "Forty-nine."
"forty nine……"
The old man murmured, looking leisurely at the bamboo forest outside the window, where the shadows of the trees were dancing, "It should be almost done."
He glanced back at the radiant woman, his eyes lingered on her belly with a big hole for a moment and then moved away. His expression was indifferent, without any sadness or joy, and he asked: "Do you regret it?"
The woman shook her head without thinking, "I don't regret it."
"She is a good child, and they are all good children, but I only prefer her. She deserves the best."
Zhang Zheng frowned and continued: "If we follow this method, it doesn't depend on us who will be the minor clan leader in the end. The final decision lies in the hands of the clan leader. However, the task requires us to help the Wu clan win the position of minor clan leader. It is true that
It’s a little strange.”
When his eyes were dark, he could only follow the mission issued by the brown dot ball step by step, and he was at his mercy, without any intention of questioning whether the mission was true or false.
"When the dust settles, I hope you won't become a burden on her heart. She should go far on this road."
The two of them had exactly four brown-dot balls in their hands. After losing the fight, they threw the brown-dot balls to them without any hesitation and took the opportunity to escape.
"According to what the young master said, if you win six birth guides, you will be considered qualified. The clan leader will then select one person from the qualified ones to become the junior clan leader..."
Since Song Lian said that she heard the ear-stealing talisman's message, she must have heard the conversation between Na Yaguo and her about the high priest and the golden dot ball.
Song Lian twirled the brown-dot ball and didn't really believe it, "Probably not, isn't the mission for us to help others win the position of the leader of the small clan? This is not over yet."
She paused for a moment and continued: "What's more, she didn't lose everything. She got what I asked her to get, which is enough."
…
"Not very likely."
Recalling the constipated and weird expressions on the monks' faces when they heard their intention, Zhang Zheng always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't get the answer from them, so he could only get the brown dot ball first.
The two left the study one after another, and the old man Gujing Mubo's voice was vague, "It's good if you don't regret it. After so many years, she is the child who is most like me. She can go a long way on this road."
The rough stone for the previous level was a small brown dot ball. By analogy, the small gold dot ball in the high priest's body is likely to be the rough stone for this level.
If it hadn't been for Na Yaguo's subtle reminder and the young master's explicit statement, Zhang Zheng would have been just like other monks and had no idea about the original stone.
"Okay, I'll wait and see."
Zhang Zheng looked at the slave workers hunched over the mining fields in the gray-yellow mines from a distance, looking very concerned.
Song Lian held four small brown balls in his hand, and the crystal balls collided with each other, making a clear and melodious tinkling sound.
Zhang Zheng's thoughts were surging, but he shook his head calmly, "It's nothing, I just feel like something is weird."
The two of them looked at each other, with doubts in their eyes. Where had the Wu clansman who cooperated with the pair of monks gone?
Song Lian guessed: "Could it be that they left separately? The young master didn't leave with you either."
As long as they hear the words "gold dot ball", they should have doubts and guesses.
There is only one possibility. Nayaguo has always been able to block the eavesdropping of the ear-stealers. This also explains why Nayaguo died so strangely. Nayaguo may have concealed a lot of inside information.
The old man murmured to himself, not knowing who he was talking to. He stood up, took steps forward, and passed the woman, "Even if the cost is to lose everything?"
If the mission was really set, he might not change the mission again and again, but Zhang Zheng had already suspected that there was something wrong with the little brown ball.
Since the young master knows it, do the other Wu clan members know it or not?
The young master took the initiative to offer the golden ball as a trade, indicating that he knew the purpose of these outside monks coming here.
It had been seven days since they said goodbye to Nayago. After wandering aimlessly for six days, they finally met a pair of monks.
Zhang Zheng recalled that Na Yaguo once mentioned the golden dot ball in the body of the high priest, "Can you hear the voice of the ear-stealing talisman?"
"Me?" Song Lian asked, and said very calmly: "Cooperation is cooperation. Where is the deal? The task requires me to help an important person win the position of the leader of the small clan. I happened to have a Wu clan member next to me, so I cooperated with her.
.”
Zhang Zheng shook his head to deny her guess, and then thinking about the strange behavior of the pair of monks, an unexpected but reasonable answer came to his mind.
Two figures in gray coats walked together, their shadows dragging on the ground unevenly.
Song Lian, on the other hand, had no idea about the whereabouts of the original stone, and was genuinely puzzled, which was not a lie.
She raised her chin slightly toward the ball in Song Lian's hand, "Is it possible that the brown-dot ball has a new mission and the mission has changed."
"We already have four pills in hand, plus the one in the hand of that rude kid, it happens to be six pills. It should be enough."
"I believe in my child, she will do well, and she will go further than you."
The scenery for seven days was endless, with flowers and fire in the rocks and horses in the gaps.
The content of the Golden Palace inheritance assessment is for those who win three rough stones to pass the test. The brown-dot ball is the first rough stone. The golden-dotted ball in Na Yaguo's mouth, which is the medicine introduction in the mouth of the young master, should be the second rough stone.
Song Lian's movement of playing with the ball stopped. After thinking for a moment, his mind turned around and he exclaimed: "I didn't see it!"
The woman turned around and followed the old man, her tone was decisive, but every word was extremely calm and without any fluctuation, "Even if the price is to lose everything."
With the mysterious senior from the previous Qi Palace in front of her, she very much doubted whether the brown dot ball was also man-made.
Everyone thought that they could hear everything Nayago said and had the eyes of God, but little did they know that they were actually being played around by ants who had no secrets in their eyes.
"Stubbornness, prejudice, ignorance but true knowledge."
Song Lian nodded, "Since it's cooperation, I can naturally listen with her. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
Zhang Zheng frowned, remembering something that had been ignored, and hurriedly asked: "Are there anyone else around those two monks just now?"
Thinking like this, Zhang Zheng unconsciously asked, "What is your cooperation deal with the Wu tribe people?"
Why did Na Yaguo reveal the clues about the original stone to her without leaving any trace?
Who is behind the scenes controlling the little brown ball, using the monks as spearmen, and who is he trying to target?
Zhang Zheng didn't dare to tell whether the person behind it was Na Yaguo or the young master, but this suspicion was enough for her to act carefully and not get into trouble easily.
Inheritance is not so easy to obtain, saving your life is the most important thing.
