Chapter 634: The time of intoxication

On the banks of Jiulong Lake, in the Cangshui Stream.

The two great priests, Grand Priest Li and Grand Priest Lou, together with Priest Lin, Priest Gao and other priests, were enjoying delicious food and drinking fine wine together.

Above the waterside pavilion, the piano girl is stroking the strings, and the melodious tunes are gently rippling on the lake, which is fascinating.

The music is intoxicating, and the wine is also intoxicating. Most of the priests have peach blossoms on their faces and are drunk.

Priest Li was particularly happy. He was rubbing shoulders with several male priests, as if he had forgotten the boundaries of his status, and became one with them, as close as brothers.

"Now, although the temple is facing some small crises..." Priest Li said with a drunken look on his face, making small gestures with his index finger and thumb, shaking his round body, "But As long as we, the priests, unite as one and stick to our faith, there is no need to worry about overcoming the difficulties."

"We will follow the great priest closely!" Priest Lin first raised his eyebrows and patted his chest in assurance.

The other priests were not as responsive as Priest Lin, so they lagged behind and could only regretfully pick up on his wisdom.

Priest Li smiled and patted Priest Lin on the shoulder and said, "I heard that your second-place daughter is still studying in the Chinese Academy of Sciences..."

Priest Lin perked up and said with cupped hands: "That's right. Thank you, Priest Li, for your concern!"

"It's a pity that Liu Zhuangyuan was born that year." Priest beside him said drunkenly, "Otherwise, our Shuying niece is so diligent, How come we have to settle for second place..."

Priest Lin's face darkened when he heard this, and his lips curled downwards.

“Hey, you really don’t want to open any pot.”

Someone noticed that Priest Lin was displeased and patted the nonsense Priest.

"Ah...why did you hit me..."

Everyone burst into laughter, but some people said: "Since Liu Zhuangyuan is no longer here, doesn't the daughter stand alone in the top spot?"

"Hahaha, it's true. ..."< br>
Priest Li patted Priest Lin on the shoulder and said, "Lin Yuan, Shuying's niece is so outstanding. When she comes back... there will be a place for her in the temple."

Suddenly, the whole audience was stunned. A chorus of congratulations.

"The priest has made a reservation!"

"This is a very happy event!"

"Old Lin, you have to invite the great priest for this meal!"

The priests said Overjoyed, they all raised their glasses to Priest Lin.

Priest Lin could not hide his smile and raised his glass to drink.

Just as the scene was getting heated, a woman's voice sounded coldly:

"You still have to be careful. Although what happened in the Temple Mountain today has nothing to do with us, how can we laugh and play at this time? Are you making trouble?”

These words were poured down like a basin of cold water.

Everyone’s laughter stopped suddenly.

Looking over one after another.

I saw a female priest with a frosty face and pursed lips looking at everyone coldly.

The priest’s name was Yan Lai. She was always serious and serious. No one was surprised when the disappointing words came out of her mouth.

The atmosphere was stagnant for a moment.

It was Grand Priest Lou who spoke up to break the deadlock.

"What Priest Yan said is not unreasonable. The temple has been in the spotlight due to the explosion. You should be careful with your words and actions." She said calmly, "Especially at this time, drinking and having fun , Don’t let anyone look at it.”

The priests were shocked and nodded in agreement.

On the contrary, Grand Priest Li laughed and said: "We are not drinking and having fun, this is just a regular dinner in the temple. After all, Grand Priest Lou's Cangshui Jian, the food is so delicious, it is the best in Chang'an, I It’s normal to wait for love to come.”

“That’s right.” A sensible priest immediately agreed.

“Yes, what can be better than the delicacies of Cangshui Jian to soothe our bodies and minds after being troubled by believers all day long?”

“Speaking of which, there is a home. Guangfeng Tower is also good..."

"Hush! Don't talk nonsense. How can the vulgar things fried in the big pot over high fire be compared with the exquisite delicacies in Cangshui Jian?"

"That's it!"

That's it! Even Priest Lin, who is not good at flattery, He also stumbled and praised: "Especially the Xiaoxiang Qiuyue wine from Cangshui stream is really the best in the world. Drinking it makes you forget your worries."

These compliments made the great priest Lou reveal his emotions. Sweet pear swirl.

The atmosphere is lively again. Yan Lai watched from the last position, feeling depressed and took a sip of wine alone.

But the acquaintance of the high priest next to him did not change his expression, and whispered through his teeth: "It is a rare and confusing truth, don't you understand?"

Immediately, he was overflowing with emotion. The elderly female believer's favorite cheerful smile, chatting and laughing with other priests.

This display of dissociation made Yan Lai suspect for a moment that the words he just heard were auditory hallucinations in his trance.

She couldn't do what High Priest said.

Thinking of the explosion on the Temple Mountain today, in which seventeen people died, she felt that the scene in front of her was really dazzling.

How can you be confused?

Frustrated, she stood up and walked to the window, looking out at the open Jiulong Lake, with the lights of the restaurant flickering on the lake.

The gauze curtain fluttered, and the cold wind mixed with snow stars blew on Yan Lai's face, but it was very refreshing, blowing away the depression at the table.

At this time, the voice of Priest Lou sounded nearby:

"If you think too much at this time, you are asking for trouble."

Yan Lai was startled and realized that at some point, High Priest Lou suddenly appeared beside him, and the smile on his face had disappeared.

I saw Priest Lou looking into the distance and continued: "You are also a priestess, and so am I. And here, most of them are male priests, it is obvious."

Yan Lai He nodded and said respectfully: "There are one hundred and eighty-three priests in the temple, and only thirty-eight of them are women."

This seems to be true everywhere.

"You are the only one who can attend the banquet." Priest Lou chuckled, "Do you know why?"

Yan Lai lowered his head and said: "The one who can attend the banquet is not with...the two The high priest is close to her, even though she is of higher rank. I can come here because I am ranked fourth level. "Other than me, I am the only woman." The high priest said with a smile.

"Yes." Yan Lai said respectfully.

"Then do you want to go further?" Priest Lou suddenly asked in a low voice.

These words hit Yan Lai's heart directly.

She did not hesitate and said bluntly: "Of course I want to."

Priest Lou chuckled and said: "If you want to ascend, you need to surpass the fifth-level priest above you, but Have you succeeded in all these years?"

Yan Lai suddenly fell silent.

“So what you need is not your personal efforts, your efforts are enough and everyone can see it.”

"Then what do I need?" Yan Lai asked calmly.

“What you need is me.” Grand Priest Lou said softly, with a smile on his lips, “Now that I am in power, I can only select more female priests if I take the position of the top priest. You understand. "?"

Yan Lai's heart sank.

Priest Lou continued: "In short, there are some things that I can't explain to you, but I hope you can follow me well, don't hesitate, don't have second thoughts, do you understand?"
< br>For a moment, Yan Lai didn't know how to respond to these words. He only felt that there was a lot of weirdness in them.

But High Priest Lou stared at her with a smile, as if expecting her answer.

Yan Lai felt panicked, his eyes lingering on the slightly parted red lips of Priest Lou, as if an urging voice would overflow the next moment.

At this moment, her eyes turned inadvertently and caught a glimpse of nine bright lights that suddenly lit up over Jiulong Lake. They were like nine shining silver lines, shooting straight into the sky.

The light in Yan Lai's eyes flickered so clearly that Priest Lou couldn't help but turn his head, and a flash of astonishment flashed across his eyes.

"This...how is this possible? How come it is here? How come it is at this time?"

Priest Lou murmured to himself in a low voice.

Yan Lai didn’t understand, so he just looked up.

The vision was so dazzling that the priests present naturally noticed these silver threads that shot straight into the sky. They were amazed and wondered which restaurant on Jiulong Lake was doing some celebrations and launching such novel fireworks. .

Only Priest Lou showed a strange look and ignored Yan Lai. Instead, he walked quickly towards Priest Li. The two exchanged a few words in a low voice and hurriedly left the table.

A priest who had just hooked up with Priest Li thought he was familiar with him, so he caught up with him and asked for more questions, but was scolded and stepped aside sadly.

Yan Lai watched everything quietly.

Looking at the departing figures of the two great priests hurriedly disappearing in the corridor, she understood that something major had to happen.

Her eyes immediately turned to the place where the white light was emitted in the distance, her brows furrowed in thought.
