"It doesn't matter. I can use my original identity."
Lin Mengya thought that he was worried that her current identity would alert the other party and make things difficult for her.
However, Long Tianhao shook his head and said worriedly, "Now, those people are searching for me all over the city. Now, there are these people. Even if you use your original identity, you'll be too big a target. If you're not careful, you'll be exposed. I don't want to drag you into this mess."
Lin Mengya clenched her fist and punched him lightly. "What are you thinking about? Am I that weak? "
She was not blaming him, but more like complaining coquettishly.
Long Tianhao was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he explained, "Ya 'er, that's not what I mean. You're very powerful, more outstanding than any woman I've ever met. I know you can protect yourself, and I know you're my biggest support, but I still don't want you to be in danger. Do you understand? "
He was anxious to explain, but he was also afraid that his beloved would be sad because of this.
He was the king of all mouths, who could make people doubt their lives, but in front of her, he often became clumsy.
She snickered in her heart.
How rare! Wasn't he usually full of sweet nothings? Why did he drop the ball at such a critical moment?
She had wanted to deliberately make things difficult for this guy, but when she saw his anxious look, she could not bear to do so.
"That's enough." She said softly, "I know you want to protect me, but didn't we agree before that I'll accompany you to save people?"
In the face of his lover's determination, Long Tianhao felt that all persuasion was useless.
Lin Mengya couldn't bear to see him look so pitiful. She held his hand and coaxed him in a low voice, "You don't want me to take risks, but how can I watch you take risks without doing anything? Besides, who else can we trust here except each other? People say that if a husband and wife are of one heart, they can cut through gold. We've been through so many storms in the past, and we've survived them all. Do you think we'll capsize this time? "
It turned out that some flags could not be set up randomly.
She planned to change back to Gong Ya's identity and wait for the Gong Family members to arrive at the Holy City. Then, she would think of a way to contact her family members so that she could return to the team without anyone knowing.
Who would have thought that this time, the Holy City would open up another path, allowing these families to reach the Holy Temple directly.
In that case, she would have to sneak out of the city, or sneak into the Holy Temple before she could contact her family.
However, regardless of whether they went up or down, the defense was quite tight.
Just like what Yu had said before, there were too many of them and they were too big of a target. If they spread out, they were afraid that they would be exposed. However, if they gathered together, it would be easy for others to see through them.
Fortunately, with Yu's care, everyone was provided with enough food and clothing.
But this was not the way to go. The day of the celebration was approaching, and they had not found a way to sneak into the Holy Sanctum without attracting attention.
Finally, Lin Mengya couldn't help but bring Cai Ru out to investigate the situation personally.
The Holy City, which had been relatively peaceful a few days ago, was now constantly patrolled by guards.
They could not find any free space or blind spots. The entire Holy City was surrounded like an iron bucket.
"Master, are these people here to catch us?"
Cai Ru was a little uncertain, but more than that, she was worried about their plan.
Narrowing her eyes, she said softly, "We are in their eyes.
At most, we are small fish and shrimps in their eyes. "
"Then why are they mobilizing so many people?"
She looked at a certain place hidden in the clouds. "Naturally, they are preparing for the people in the Holy Temple."
In fact, until now, she was still a little uncertain.
No one spread the news of Yu's escape, so that everyone thought that he would be the next Temple Master.
If the other party's purpose was to trap Yu, then he would have deliberately left some clues to lure them into a trap.
Now, she was a little confused about the other party's purpose.
While the two of them were talking, a group of people dressed in very special clothes happened to pass by on the street.
Someone at the side recognized them and whispered to each other, "Aren't those people from the Holy Witch Tribe?"
Witches could reach heaven and earth, ghosts and gods.
However, they were not usually seen. They would only appear during the Holy Temple's important festivals or when a new Temple Master was appointed.
These people's whereabouts were a mystery. It was said that they usually lived in a small town. In order to maintain the purity of their bloodline and to make it easier for them to communicate with the heavens, they would not marry outside. They would even spend the rest of their lives in the small town.
It was also her first time seeing these people.
All of them were wrapped in white robes, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.
But those eyes were a little strange.
She inadvertently looked into the other party's eyes and was in a daze for a moment.
Fortunately, the System interfered in time, allowing her to quickly get rid of the strange situation brought about by the other party's eyes.
That pair of eyes were too deep. Just a casual glance was enough to draw her in.
Now, she somewhat understood why these people were worshipped by others. Being shrouded by such eyes, who could escape?
At the side, Cai Ru was also stunned. She couldn't help but recall the events of the past.
The rigorous training, the first time she carried out a mission, the first time she killed people. Like a revolving lantern, they quickly flashed through her mind.
Guilt tore at her heart. Those useless emotions that she had abandoned long ago seemed to be recklessly growing again.
At that moment, she felt like she had been enlightened. She wanted to let go of everything and return to the dust.
At that moment, she heard her master's warning.
"Don't look into their eyes!"
Then, her vision turned black. Those intense emotions that had almost engulfed her instantly faded away.
She looked at her hands in a daze. She really could not understand where those thoughts came from.
"This … What's wrong with me?"
She seemed to have been bewitched just now. She had clearly gotten over those things, but the remaining emotions in her heart made her inexplicably palpitate.
"You should have been influenced by them."
Lin Mengya believed that if she did not have the System to protect her, she would have been in a worse situation than Cai Ru.
"But they didn't do anything?"
Cai Ru could not help but be surprised. She was sure that she was not poisoned or controlled, but the feeling just now was really too strange.
After those people had left, Lin Mengya looked around and said, "This is a very ancient and very mysterious eye technique. If the other party's eyes were trained through special training, then it is very likely that the person's emotions will be controlled at the very beginning."
This eye technique was also recorded in the music score for the green stringed instrument, but it was extremely disdainful of this method.
This was because this method of complaint had the price of sacrificing the person's eyes.
If one wanted to practice, they had to modify their eyes from a young age. Whether it was the medicine that was taken or the medicine that was used to smoke the eyes, it was actually not very good for eyesight.
On the road to success, a large number of people would become blind because of this. And even if they succeeded, it was very likely that they would lose their most basic eyesight in middle age.
Therefore, the conclusion in the music score for the green stringed instrument was that this eye technique could kill a thousand enemies, but hurt eight hundred of oneself.
Furthermore, if one were to practice it, they would either become truly blind or partially blind.
This kind of result was irreversible. Therefore, the music score for the green stringed instrument did not have the specific steps, but only a few sentences.
She did not expect to meet a living person here.
"They are all here. It seems that there is a big movement in the Holy Temple this time."
But what made her more worried was that she did not know whether these people were friends or foes.
If these people were in cahoots with that person, not to mention them, even those aristocratic families could not escape.
Imagine, just one look at someone and that person would fall into a nervous breakdown.
It was simply the biggest killing weapon!
But she was also very curious. These people were so powerful, so what was their role in the ceremony of the Holy Temple?
They could not use the eye technique to threaten those families, could they?
Fortunately, this question got a perfect answer from Long Tianhao.
"They are here to dance the Sacrificial God Dance. The exchange of new and old temple masters of each generation has to be informed to the gods. And as the Holy Witch Tribe, they are an important communication channel between the gods and the Holy Temple. "
After all this fuss, it was just a mouthpiece that was supposed to be a mouthpiece.
"But didn't they say that only certain people can hear the oracle?"
She had always thought that she was very special, but it seemed that it was nothing.
Soon, Long Tianhao answered her doubts.
"Although all the words of the gods are considered oracles, only those that predict disasters or give blessings can be considered as real oracles. What the Gong family could hear before was the prediction of disasters, and the Holy Witch Tribe's role is to pass on the information that the Holy Temple wants to inform the gods. Under normal circumstances, the gods will give warnings if they do not agree. Other than that, there is no other reaction. "
"Oh."
It turned out that she was just a weather forecaster, and they were the real phone lines.
After silently complaining, she did not have any other emotions.
She had never believed in the so-called "God" for even a moment.
Those so-called oracles must be people playing tricks, or some kind of uncanny workmanship of nature.
No matter which it was, it had nothing to do with them.
But thinking of the Holy Witch Tribe's appearance, she had a flash of inspiration.
"We can dress up as the Holy Witch Tribe and sneak in! And no one will dare to stop us, right? "
But her suggestion was crushed by her man's intelligence.
"You have to know that the reason why the Holy Witch Tribe cover their faces and no one cares is that their eyes are unique enough. If those people are suspicious, they just need to take a closer look at their eyes to know whether they are real or not, not to mention that all the Holy Witch Tribe members have to dance the Sacrificial God Dance in the altar in the end. I haven't even seen it, how can I dance? "
