"Tall, high..."

The Venerable God Samurai repeated this word in a murmur, and suddenly realized something. Ye Xiaotian observed the fleeting surprise of the Venerable God Samurai, and thought to himself: "What does he mean by that? If it's because of hearing He was a little surprised to hear the name of a god that he had never heard of before, and it was so weird, but it was justified, but he couldn’t be sure whether he knew God, this old guy’s mind is hard to guess.”

The Venerable God Attendant smiled, and his expression became calmer: "Oh? The tall one, who is it?"

Ye Xiaotian said: "This is a great god that is sacred in the West, and the Westerners believe in it. Now the Westerners have traveled across the ocean to our Ming Dynasty in a big ship, and it is the sect of this great god that is passed on. According to the Westerners, it is He created the world, uh... this is the business of our Great God Pangu, he also created man, uh... this also took away the merits of our Nuwa Empress, and later he also created light, uh... Xihe's work My son was also snatched by him..."

Ye Xiaotian talked nonsense for a while, the Venerable God Attendant heard it interesting, suddenly raised his head and laughed, the hearty laughter echoed in the temple, everyone showed a look of surprise.

Because of his noble status, the Venerable God Attendant hardly ever showed a smile in the temple, let alone such a big laugh. Ever since he knew that his death was approaching and began to arrange his funeral, he had never shown a smile. Unexpectedly, because of Ye Xiaotian's words, he smiled so happily.

The Venerable God Samurai slowly stopped laughing, but the laughter was still echoing in the empty temple, the Venerable God Samurai stretched out his index finger, smiled slightly and nodded to Ye Xiaotian, saying: "This person is very interesting. Dol Dude, you have to bring him here often to chat with this deity, this deity... very lonely... "

The Gedu guy respectfully agreed, and Ye Xiaotian groaned secretly: "I wanted to ask this old guy to let me go, but why did he want me to chat with him? I have a little one in my arms, and now What am I supposed to do to coax you old man?"

The Venerable God Attendant waved to Ye Xiaotian with a smile, and said, "Bring the child here."

Ge Duo hurriedly gestured to Ye Xiaotian, Ye Xiaotian came forward with the baby in his arms, and the Venerable God Attendant stroked the baby's forehead, murmuring something, but after a while, he seemed a little tired, and slowly twitched Turning back, leaning on the chair and closing your eyes to rest.

Ye Xiaotian didn't know whether the ceremony was over or not, he was still standing there foolishly with the baby in his arms, the hall was silent, after a long time, those concubines finally understood, dare this brother of the Han family doesn't know respect The person has already been blessed, so he just stays there.

Ye Xiaotian heard the snickering of the concubines and girls, turned around in a daze, and saw a tall and graceful concubine stepping forward gracefully, smiled at him, and made a bewitching ceremony, the ceremony is over, A gesture of please come back.

This concubine wears simple clothes, and the thin revealing fine silk fabric is wrapped around some embarrassing places, such as a flexible and strong waist, round and high buttocks, sexy belly button, charming cleavage...but they are all exposed, hot sexy.

Facing such a fiery beauty, Ye Xiaotian wanted to look but didn't dare to. He didn't know where to put his eyes, so he could only look at the immature and innocent face of the baby in his arms, and walked down the stone steps step by step.

Geduol took the child from Ye Xiaotian's arms and kindly gestured "invitation" to him. Ye Xiaotian turned his head and saw that the patron saint was leaning on the chair as if he had fallen asleep, so he had no choice but to follow him. Gedold went out.

When the Gerdole family walked out of the main hall, Elder Ge Gewo just came up from the mountain. When he saw Ye Xiaotian, Ge Gewo's gloomy eyes suddenly became deeper. How did you bring a Han into the temple?"

The Gedu guy smiled and said: "Ah! It turned out to be the respected elder Gegewo. This young man is the godfather chosen by the great Gu god for my son. He just accompanied me in the temple and asked the venerable old man to be my son. The son is blessed."

Gegewo became even more unhappy when he heard that, and said displeasedly: "What, His Holiness has received him?"

Gedole laughed and said: "The venerable not only saw him, but also liked him very much. The venerable told me to bring him to the temple frequently. The venerable wanted to chat with him."

The two spoke in Miao language, and Ye Xiaotian stood aside like a duck listening to thunder, except that he didn't understand.

When Gegewo heard that the Venerable admired Ye Xiaotian and made an exception and invited him to come to the temple from time to time, his eyes towards Ye Xiaotian were full of hostility. He snorted coldly and walked to the entrance of the temple. The ones went around to the back of the temple angrily.

Ge Gewo is the most popular candidate to succeed the Venerable, because he is the most respected among the eight elders, and he is very likely to become the best successor selected by the Gu God. In fact, most of the time the Venerable is selected by the Gu God His heir is indeed the one with the highest prestige among the elders.

However, the selection of the venerable is not based on the previous venerable who comprehensively evaluates the merits of the qualified heirs in all aspects, and chooses one of them. The venerable is just a messenger, and it is the "Gu God" who decides all this. Whoever it is, it will be designated by His Holiness.

Regarding this point, Ge Gewo has always been a little skeptical, he can use Gu, and he is a master of using Gu, but he has raised and used Gu all his life, but he has never seen a Gu God, he even doubts whether there is really a Gu God in the world. Such a god.

There used to be a Venerable God Attendant at the end of his life, following the will of the Gu God, and chose a woodcutter as his successor. Of course he knew, he knew even more details than Zhan Ninger, he doubted the so-called woodcutter In fact, it is the illegitimate son of the previous venerable, and judging from the age of the successor, this matter is very likely.

But this kind of thing, only people like Elder Ge Gewo who are second only to the Venerable and closest to the Gu God dare to doubt it so much. The farther away from this god, the less they dare to doubt its existence. How could it be possible? What irreverent thoughts would arise

It is precisely because Ge Gewo doubts whether there is such a Gu God in the world, and whether this Gu God really cares about who its spokesperson in the world is, so he doubts that the so-called heir appointed by the Venerable Lord adhering to the will of the god is not at all. It didn't come from that illusory Gu God, which is what Ge Gewo worried about the most.

Because although he is the head of the eight elders, the venerable himself does not like him, and if the person who appointed the successor is not some Gu god, but actually the venerable, then he can never appoint himself, so during this period of time Ge Gewo was very nervous, making frequent movements in private, trying to exert influence on His Holiness.

At the same time, he maintained absolute vigilance against anyone who approached His Holiness beyond him, fearing that these people would also exert influence on His Holiness. And Zhan Ning'er was one of the people he was most wary of, because he had a very bad relationship with the Zhan family, and the Zhan family didn't want him to succeed the Venerable.

The Venerable likes the little girl Zhan Ning'er very much. The reason why the Zhan family sent Zhan Ning'er instead of the head of the Zhan family coming to wait for the birth of the new Venerable is to take advantage of the fact that the Venerable likes Ning'er. To influence his decision.

Therefore, Gegewo has always been very vigilant against Zhan Ning'er, preventing her from getting close to the Venerable, but now Ye Xiaotian appeared out of nowhere, who had a relationship with the Gedold so quickly and gained the trust of the Venerable. From Ge Gewo's point of view, of course it was Zhan Ning'er's detour.

"The Zhan family really has a conspiracy. This kid is probably the lobbyist they recruited. No, the cooked duck can't just fly like this. I have to discuss it with him."

The more Gegewo thought about it, the more uneasy he became, he suddenly stopped in the middle of the walk, thought over and over again, turned around and walked out again.

Ye Xiaotian and Geduolao's family took three bamboo rafts and swam across the lake. Just after passing through the mist layer, they saw a few figures standing on the opposite bank looking towards this side. Hua Yunfei, Mao Wenzhi and Xing Erzhu.

Xing Erzhu was their captive, but this Miao village is full of drafty wooden houses, and there is no chain. The locks of these seedling homes are the endless forest. There is no place to detain Xing Erzhu, and the Miao people did not help the prisoners. Seeing the truth of captives, he can only be inseparable from Mao Wenzhi and Hua Yunfei.

In addition to these three people, there are two other people standing on the shore of the lake, one of them is shining under the sunlight, like a mermaid with silver scales, especially when she stretches and moves, the silver light in her body is shining, dazzling It makes people's eyes dazzle.

Even without looking at his face, Ye Xiaotian knew that it must be Zhan Ning'er. If this person was Zhan Ning'er, then the man next to her would naturally be An Nantian, and when the bamboo raft got closer, it turned out to be her brother and sister.

A gleam of warmth flashed across Ye Xiaotian's heart. Although Zhan Ning'er looked fierce, she was actually a good girl with a warm heart. She didn't have to care about her own life, but when Hua Yunfei and Mao Wenzhi went back to the village and said, she Just come out.

Ye Xiaotian waved to them from a distance, and Mao Wenzhi immediately waved to him happily, and when the bamboo raft landed on the shore, Zhan Ning'er greeted them with a smile, first bowed to Gedold, and said : "Brother Dole, hello."

Ge Duol jumped ashore and said, "Ah, so it's Miss Zhan, are you going to the temple?"

Zhan Ning'er curled her lips and said, "I'm not going, it's better to avoid suspicion, so that every time I go, Ge Gewo will be like guarding against thieves."

Gedoldo looks like a very rough and tough man, but he is a man with fine details in his roughness, otherwise how could he be a tribal chief. He also knew a thing or two about the entanglements between Elder Gegewo and the Zhan family, and the Gedol guy didn't want to get involved, so he just smiled foolishly.

Zhan Ning'er said: "I'm here to pick up my friend, I heard that Big Brother Dou asked him to be the child's godfather?"

Hearing this, Gedold laughed: "Ah! So he is the friend you entrusted me to take care of. Yes, he is the predestined person for my baby. This baby was crying and fussing. Li, I'm grinning right now."

Zhan Ning'er looked at Ye Xiaotian in surprise, and said, "I really can't see that you are not only good at coaxing women, but also coaxing children."

Ye Xiaotian proudly said: "Who am I? Apart from having children, there is nothing that can trouble me."

Zhan Ning'er said with a half smile but not a smile: "Then... How about coaxing the old man, can you do it?"
