Fantasy: The Empress Betrayed, I Backhandedly Choose the System

Wen Lingyu was too excited, Ji Chen thought about it, and didn't say anything about his communication with Cao Mu.

Anyway, the days are still very long, so it’s okay to talk about this kind of thing at another time.He has already made arrangements with Cao Mu, and it would be a surprise to choose a good day for Wen Lingyu to try.

Thinking of this, Ji Chen asked Wen Lingyu: "Master, your people know I'm here, is there any problem?"

Wen Lingyu said: "No problem! I asked the patriarch's grandfather, and at first I was worried that he would say that I brought someone else with me privately. But when I told him about your situation, he said it's okay, and it doesn't matter if you stay. Patriarch Grandpa is a very good person, after you see him, you will definitely feel the same!"

When she said these words, Wen Lingyu's eyes were full of joy and happiness.

During the time they spent together, Wen Lingyu told Ji Chen many things about her clan almost every day.So Ji Chen is also very clear that Wen Lingyu likes the Spirit Clan very much, everyone in the Spirit Clan, and the old patriarch she has always called "Grandpa".

It was because of her narration that Ji Chen became more and more curious about these people of the Spirit Race.

What kind of people is it that can make Wen Lingyu say so many nice things about them when they only get along once or twice a year.

What kind of people are there to make such a strange request and really let Wen Lingyu live alone on this mountain for so many years.

Ji Chen was really curious.

Soon it was time for the ceremony to begin, and as Wen Lingyu's apprentice, Ji Chen actually had nothing to prepare for.All the preparatory work was done by the Spirit Race people who went up the mountain, and it took less than an hour to arrange the venue and clean the altar.No one looked at them during the whole process, and naturally no one came to talk to them.

Ji Chen wanted to go to help, but Wen Lingyu took him back.

Wen Lingyu said: "When doing these preparations, we can't participate. Because I am a saint, I need to work when the ceremony begins."

Ji Chen pointed to the busy people over there, and he said: "But Master, your people are there, don't you want to go and talk to them?"

Wen Lingyu lowered her head and did not answer his question.

How could she not want to talk?But she is a saint, she can't talk to ordinary people.

Pursing her lips, seeing that Ji Chen had been staring at her suspiciously, Wen Lingyu finally squeezed out an answer: "Holy maidens are not allowed to have friends down the mountain, because that would easily violate the ancestral precepts. Friends may If you secretly go up the mountain to find me, I may also run down the mountain to find him privately. This kind of thing will never be allowed. So from the beginning, I am not allowed to communicate with anyone, and this kind of thing will not happen .”

Ji Chen frowned: "Has it always been like this?"

Wen Lingyu nodded: "It's always been like this. The only ones who can communicate with me are the old people who taught me the exercises at the beginning, but after they taught me, they also cut off relations with me. The rest is the grandfather of the village chief. He would tell me some important things. For example, the arrangement of the festival, or the food on the mountain. As for others, in the year when I first went to the mountain, I secretly went to talk to people during the festival. As a result, I was not received Punishment, the child who spoke to me was severely punished. Everyone saw it, and even if I wanted to, no one dared to talk to me."

Speaking of this, a trace of loneliness flashed across Wen Lingyu's eyes.

But soon she put away her emotions and showed a big smile to Ji Chen again, she said: "My dear apprentice, don't feel sorry for me, I have never felt sorry for me. Besides, now I I'm not alone anymore, you are also with me on the mountain, I can talk to you and play with you, isn't it very happy?"

Ji Chen looked into Wen Lingyu's eyes and found that there was no sadness in the girl's eyes, so he nodded and smiled back at Wen Lingyu. He said, "It's not just me, Master will have more and more friends in the future. More than everyone else, you'll never feel alone again."

Wen Lingyu laughed out loud, she obviously didn't believe Ji Chen's words.

Ji Chen didn't say any more, and even took the initiative to put down the curtain of the tent, instead of looking at those busy people outside, he said: "Master, they don't care about us anyway, so let's just pretend they don't exist. It's still early, I want to practice the exercises you taught me before, can you help me see?"

Wen Lingyu nodded vigorously, and responded with a smile: "Okay."

Three nights later, the ceremony began.

Wen Lingyu had changed into the clothes she should wear for the Saintess Ceremony since dusk, and when the time came, she walked out of the room with Ji Chen, walked to the side of the altar, and went up by herself, leaving Ji Chen where she was , and stand with all the Eldar people.

Wen Lingyu wore a pure white mask on her face, covering her beautiful features.She knelt on the ground, chanting the incantations to worship the gods.

This spell is very pleasant, a bit like the spell that knows everything.But if you listen carefully, you will find that there is still a difference between the two.

What Wen Lingyu is saying now is obviously more solemn and serious.

When people listen to it in their ears, the strings in their hearts are tensed, and there is no intention of relaxing at all.

Ji Chen doesn't like this kind of spell.

But after all, the person who chanted the spell was Wen Lingyu, so he listened and watched quietly and seriously as usual.

But what he didn't expect was that after listening for a while, his sleeves were pulled twice by the people around him.

Looking back, it was a boy who was a few years younger than him.

The child stared at a pair of big eyes, innocent and full of curiosity.Seeing Ji Chen looking back at him, he asked bluntly, "Brother, I heard from my mother that there is a foreigner who lives with him on the mountain. Is that person brother you?"

Ji Chen nodded and returned a gentle smile to the other party.

Although he didn't know each other, after all, this was Wen Lingyu's favorite tribe, so he was willing to treat him kindly.

Seeing his response, the boy had a surprised expression on his face.Checking Ji Chenzai carefully again, he said: "Brother, don't you encounter any bad things?"

Ji Chen couldn't understand what the other party's question came from, so he had to ask: "What does this mean? Could it be that if you live here, you will encounter bad things?"

The boy nodded heavily.

Pointing to Wen Lingyu who started to dance on the altar, the boy said: "People in the clan say that the saint is the most ominous existence of the spirit clan. One born every thousand years is a symbol of chaos in the spirit clan. Everyone hates her , but killing her will lead to even greater disasters. Therefore, we must arrange her here and not allow her to approach us, so that she will not be able to bring us misfortune. But brother, I think you are safe, don’t you Didn't you suffer any misfortune from her?"
