Ye Xiaotian had just rushed to the seventh floor, when he saw a black shadow rushing towards him with a gust of wind, as tall as a mountain, barely hit his body, and stopped suddenly. Ye Xiaotian broke out in a cold sweat, and subconsciously hid back, but after only one step back, he felt his waist tighten, and his whole body rose into the air, swinging violently in the air.
That giant ape moved extremely nimbly, jumped upstairs, grabbed Ye Xiaotian in his hand, and danced excitedly. All of a sudden, gold balls, silver spoons, and all kinds of gold and silver utensils hidden by Ye Xiaotian fell out clangingly.
The giant ape's skin was rough and fleshy, and he didn't feel it when it hit him, but it startled Gedoldo, Bao Weng and the others: How come there are so many hidden weapons on the Venerable's body
Every floor of this temple building is raised very high, the giant ape grabbed him by the waist and waved it in the air without hitting his head, but Ye Xiaotian was shaken out of breath, he just After eating a bowl of noodles, he was shaken until his chest was throbbing, so he kept shouting, "Put me down! Put me down!"
The giant ape retracted its long arms, hugged Ye Xiaotian to his chest again, and patted his back enthusiastically, just these few slaps almost made Ye Xiaotian die.
Seeing that Ye Xiaotian was captured by a giant ape, Gedu and Baoweng immediately drew out their knives, but at this time the giant ape was swinging Ye Xiaotian, expressing joy in its own way, Gedu was afraid of hurting Ye Xiaotian, so he didn't dare to charge for a while. Go up, and then look at the movements of the giant ape, but it seems to be very intimate with Ye Xiaotian, Gedoldo and Baoweng can't help but hesitate.
At this time, the guards of the temple had already rushed up, and when they saw the Venerable being caught by the giant ape, they immediately rushed over with their swords and guns out of shock, Ye Xiaotian poked his head out from the giant ape's chest with a lot of effort. Seeing all the guards rushing over with swords and guns, I was afraid that they would hurt the giant ape. If the giant ape became aggressive, he would be really in danger.
Ye Xiaotian immediately shouted: "Stop everything! It's my brother!"
Those guards couldn't understand Ye Xiaotian's words, it was Gedole who reacted quickly, rushed forward to stop them, and repeated Ye Xiaotian's words, those guards then stopped, and looked at the gigantic ape in surprise. Looking at Ye Xiaotian's size, he felt awe in his heart: "Surely the Venerable God Attendant is not an ordinary person, his brother is not a human but an ape, and he is so tall and brave!"
Ye Xiaotian patted the giant ape's arm, beckoning it to let him down, and said happily: "Brother ape, you are indeed capable, and Miss Ning'er was also rescued by you, right?"
The giant ape didn't understand what Ye Xiaotian was talking about, but seeing his smiling face, the giant ape was also very happy, so he grinned and showed a smiling face.
At this moment, Zhan Ning'er, An Nantian, Yang Yinglong and others ran up one after another. Zhan Ning'er saw Ye Xiaotian at a glance, and immediately yelled, "Ye Xiaotian!"
Ye Xiaotian turned his head to look, and before he could see the figure clearly, he was hugged tightly, and the familiar crying sound rang in his ears. Zhan Ning'er has cried so many times since she was sensible, and she hasn't been in Thunder God's Forbidden Land for a while, and the one who is lucky enough to appreciate her crying so much is naturally Ye Xiaotian.
Ye Xiaotian patted Zhan Ning'er's shoulder and comforted him, "Okay, okay, I'm fine, don't cry, it's embarrassing to be seen."
Seeing this scene, An Nantian thought to himself: "Ah! Cousin really has an affair with him. It seems that the affection is quite serious. This is a bit troublesome. He used to be a poor boy, so you can just play around if you want. Now He has become a servant of the gods, but he can't come and go when he is called."

In the small living room on the ninth floor, the six elders were still debating fiercely, unaware of what was happening outside. Ge Cai said: "Breaking a rule or refusing to accept orders will destroy the majesty of our god religion. Comparing the two, which one has more serious consequences?"
Ge Dewa hesitated: "What we are worried about is not breaking the rules, but whether the divine religion can be passed down forever once the venerable can have children. Once you have your own flesh and blood, it will inevitably If you want your descendants to pass on the inheritance, wouldn't the divine religion become a family with one family name?"
Ge Cailao pondered: "Maybe we can learn from the practice of Buddhism and Taoism."
Gedeva said: "You mean...?"
Ge Cai said: "Once a monk escapes into Buddhism, he will jump out of the Three Realms, not in the Five Elements, and cut off all love in the world. The inheritance of the abbot and the abbot has nothing to do with his lay family's children. If we learn from this practice …”
Ge Dewa interrupted her, and said coldly: "Elder Cai, our venerable is very young. As far as I know, he has never married, let alone have children. He is a Han Chinese, and he is talking about unfilial piety." There are three, it is better to have no descendants. As long as the problem of extinction is not resolved, I think he will never ascend to the throne.
If he announces his withdrawal from the Gu God Sect in public and refuses to take this seat, we will lose face in front of the Jiudong Eighty-one Village, not to mention that in the future, the Jiudong Eighty-one Village will bow down to our God Sect, respect and trust it , even that ambitious Yang Yinglong might take the opportunity to make a move. "
Mr. Ge Cai calmly said, "Don't worry, I haven't finished yet."
She glanced at the other five elders slowly, and said again: "I taught the first venerable, and I also passed down a rule that if the successor venerable has not traveled around the world before succeeding, then after taking the position of venerable, he will To make up for this lesson, you must travel around the world to increase your knowledge, so as not to be complacent, and then you can preside over the teaching affairs. Therefore, this venerable must leave the divine religion and travel around the world."
Godewa frowned, and said: "You mean, you want him to use the opportunity of traveling around the world to marry secretly, have children, satisfy his wish to leave offspring, and then come back to be a venerable with all his heart?"
Ge Cai said: "I mean to change the religious rules and allow the venerable and the elders to have secular marriages, but once you become a venerable or an elder, you have to let go of the worldly relationship, just like the monks of Buddhism and Taoism. In that case, he During his travels around the world, let him get married, marry a wife, and have children, but when his travel period expires and he should take over the power of the teaching affairs, he can drink Duan Si Tang and be in charge of the temple with peace of mind."
"this… "
Ge Dewa hesitated, and whispered to the other elders, "What's your opinion?"
Several elders whispered and gradually reached a consensus: if Ye Xiaotian refuses to be the venerable, they are very clear about the serious consequences. As long as it doesn't hinder the inheritance of the divine religion, their attitude towards whether Ye Xiaotian marries a wife and has children is irrelevant.
In this case, if they want to resolve this matter satisfactorily, they actually have no other choice. Seeing several elders nodding their heads one after another, Ge Dewa heaved a sigh of relief, turned to Mr. Ge Cai and said, "Then, Elder Cai believes that the How much time is better?"
Ge Cai closed his eyes slightly, pondered for a while, and said, "How about a ten-year period?"
Several elders met their gazes and nodded again.
※※※
"Thirty years!"
"ten years!"
"It must be thirty years!"
"My lord, the longest time the venerables traveled around the world did not exceed ten years. Thirty years is too long."
In the small living room, Ye Xiaotian was invited up, and the six elders began to bargain with Ye Xiaotian.
Ye Xiaotian said: "Thirty years soon, look, I don't have a wife yet, so I have to look for it? I found it, and I have three matchmakers and six certificates to marry back, right? After marrying a wife, I have to have children? But this The child is not born as soon as he wants, maybe three to five years, maybe seven or eight years, I have to raise the child after he is born, right? I have to find a wife for him when he grows up... "
Godewa couldn't bear it anymore and said: "My lord, you don't want to wait for your grandson to marry you a grandson-in-law before returning to the temple to take charge?"
Ye Xiaotian said happily: "Is this okay?"
Ge Dewa almost fainted out of breath, and Ge Cai said with a sullen face: "My lord, if your actions threaten the existence of the entire Gu God Sect, then don't blame us for being disrespectful to the venerable. Although Gu has already treated you It doesn't work, but our method is not just Gu."
Ye Xiaotian changed his face and said: "Grandma, what do you want to do?"
Guy Ge Cai threatened: "Although it is a big treasonous act, if the venerable makes us cornered, we don't mind poisoning you and turning you into a walking dead. Although there will be a lot of trouble in that way, we are also As a last resort... "
Ye Xiaotian was startled inwardly: "These old guys are going to turn against me! His grandma, how can there be such a reason, some people are crying and shouting that they want to be a venerable but they can't. I can't do it now if I don't want to be a venerable?"
Ye Xiaotian thought for a long time, and said with a bitter face: "Twenty years! Grandpa, grandma, twenty years, okay?"
Several elders retreated to the side and started whispering again, Ye Xiaotian had already made a step back, they didn't dare to push too hard, this venerable is an indispensable spiritual leader of the Gu God Sect, but when it comes to specific teaching affairs, it is actually difficult Not much, these elders can finish it.
More importantly, the spiritual leader must be treed there as a symbol. It doesn’t matter what happens. The previous venerable only stayed in the teaching for one year after succeeding to the throne, then traveled around the world for nine years, and presided over the teaching affairs for seven years after returning , After more than 30 years of retreat, I have been practicing Gu Art in closed doors. In fact, I haven't managed the teaching affairs much, and they have done it for me.
In this case, twenty years does not seem unbearable. Although Ge Cai may not be able to live to that day, Gedwa and others are in their early fifties. They spend all day in the mountains cultivating their bodies and minds, and they also cultivate Gu to practice a unique medical way of nourishing the body. It is easy to live to be eighty or ninety years old. , so what if I waited for him for twenty years
The elders had made up their minds, so they went back to Ye Xiaotian, and the elder Gecai solemnly announced: "Okay! We promise the venerable, and hope that the venerable will keep his word!"
Ye Xiaotian thought to himself: "Well, I have to try to find a wife within a year and give birth to a son within a year. If this is the case, there is still time for him to become a monk before he gets married at the age of eighteen. Alas! Twenty years is too short, just seize the day ah!"
