Chapter 1067: Chapter 1067

“Besides, don’t you think the high priest is very powerful? How could we have seen him? How can outsiders like us see the high priest?”

He pretended to be sarcastic at the end.

“That’s right,” a villager quickly said. “The high priest never sees outsiders. He always sees people with a mask on or sends someone to deliver a message. I’m afraid he’s hiding himself. It’s just that we don’t know.”

“Where can he hide? Stop talking nonsense. They must have hidden the high priest! ”

The village chief was eager to pour the blame on Jiang Ming and the others.

Sikong Wuyuan was displeased. “This is the tradition of your high priest since ancient times. How can we change his way of doing things so easily? Don’t blame us. It might be because your actions angered the high priest that he

Yuan Hehe also chimed in. “That’s right. Don’t spout nonsense. You’re not up to standard as a village chief. You can’t even figure out the habits of the high priest. ”

These words angered the village chief.

He did not expect that these outsiders could anger him so much.

The villagers could not stand it anymore and quickly reprimanded Jiang Ming and the others. “He has built a lot of things for our village, and you haven’t done anything to help him. Don’t talk about the village chief! ”

“Chief, although their words are not pleasant to hear, they are indeed telling the truth.’

“l think this golden barrier is probably a test given by the high priest. After all, today’s ceremony did not go smoothly. I’m afraid he wants us to do it again.

He will only come back if he is satisfied.”

The village chief gritted his teeth. He was a little unhappy, but he could not show it. Then, he smiled and said, “That’s what should be done. I’ll listen to you. However, these outsiders actually have to be present. I don’t want them to miss the high priest’s ceremony. Perhaps it’s because they were absent that the high priest was angry and wouldn’t see anyone.”

Jiang Ming touched his chin.

Now that the high priest was not here, what would their ceremony be like?

Sikong Wuyuan felt that this ceremony was not anything good. He hurriedly said, “We will leave the village now. We won’t cause any trouble for you. We don’t want to participate in the ceremony of the high priest. If you want to go, go by yourself.”

As he spoke, he was about to pull Jiang Ming and Yuan Hehe away.

The village chief finally found an opportunity to catch Jiang Ming. Naturally, he was unwilling to let him go. Then, he said, “How can you leave? The high priest left because of you. No matter what, you have to apologize to him. You have to stay here!”

Jiang Ming could tell what the village chief was thinking. He snorted coldly. “There’s no need for that. I think the high priest left because of you.”

He thought to himself.

He had already seen the appearance and figure of the high priest, so he should be able to use his spiritual energy to transform into him. At that time, he might be able to discover many other things.

“Let’s go then,” he said.

“Why should we go?” Yuan Hehe asked incredulously. “Don’t go. This village chief might have some evil intentions.”

The last sentence made the village chief uncomfortable. He pursed his lips and said, “What would I want from you? You guys look poor and weak!”

Jiang Ming glanced at the village chief. His cold aura pressed down on him. “You should look at yourself first.”

The village chief pursed his lips and was about to say something when he was stopped by the villagers.

“Chief, we can’t quarrel now. It won’t be good if the high priest hears it. The most important thing now is to quickly fix the original ceremony and let the high priest come out. The village can’t be without the high priest.”

Although the village chief’s status was high, he still had to listen to some orders from the villagers.

When he saw this, he simply did not say anything, but he glared at Jiang Ming fiercely. He then instructed the villagers, “Then let them prepare the things that the high priest needs. I don’t think they have anything else. Let’s use their labor as a sign of sincerity.”

Sikong Wuyuan rolled his eyes.

“We didn’t say we were going. Jiu Zhu said that so that you would not be embarrassed. But we don’t care. We’re definitely not going.”

Seeing that Sikong Wuyuan was a little upset, Jiang Ming quickly comforted him. “Let’s go first. 1 have to do something later. You can’t miss the show I have planned.”

Sikong Wuyuan’s interest was piqued.

Jiang Ming had never let them down. This show was probably going to be very interesting.

Thinking of this, he did not wait for the village chief to refute. “Let’s go. I see that you are so thin and weak. I guess you don’t have many days left. 1 don’t want you to have any regrets.”

“Why are you so disrespectful to me? I think that if such a disrespectful person goes out to participate in the sacrifice, it will also make the high priest angry.

Let’s tie them up and toss them away!’

The village chief originally wanted to wait until the ceremony to toss them away.

However, he was so angry that he could not wait any longer.

One villager shook his head. “Chief, we can’t be so rash. What if the high priest likes them very much?”

At this point, he clapped his hands. “Chief, 1 think I’ll get someone to help you back first. I’ll handle the rest.’

As he spoke, he especially instructed the two villagers beside him to get the village chief out.

When the village chief saw this, he hurriedly said in a panic, “No, if you get me out, who will preside over this ceremony? If l, as the village chief, do not preside over the ceremony, the high priest will blame me instead.”

The villager sighed.

“That’s true. Then you can wait for the ceremony over there.”

“I’ll wait for you over there.” The village chief glared at Jiang Ming and the others.

Then, they left.

Seeing that everyone had left, the villagers’ faces instantly turned cold.

“Don’t think that we’re helping you. You still have to apologize to the village chief later. You’ve disrespected the village chief. If it weren’t for the high priest, we would have fallen out with you guys a long time ago. You guys should know better.’

“Thank you very much, then,” Jiang Ming said with a faint smile.

He glanced at Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe.

“Then we have to do as he says.”

The two of them did not understand, but they nodded. “For the sake of Jiu Zhu, we can cooperate with you..”
