Chapter 186 Offending the Gods
"Your Majesty, what an aura!" Su Mo raised her eyebrows and smiled softly, admiring softly, "However, it can be heard from this voice that is clearly divided between ice and fire, that the wedding with the high priest is likely to collapse. gone."

"Collapsed?" Bi Yue was puzzled, and probably guessed what it meant in her heart. After all, if the empress and the high priest successfully completed the ceremony, it would be a satisfactory thing, so they shouldn't be so cold and angry.

"I don't know if it was destroyed by others, or the marriage was regretted." Su Mo guessed lightly, but felt that the latter was more likely. Unless the person concerned was unwilling, otherwise, with the Queen's legendary personality, she could not stop her from wanting to. do.

This point is quite similar to Su Mo.Women who stand high and are strong enough and proud are usually rather unyielding, and will never give in even in the face of adversity.

However, being forced to cancel the wedding on the verge of getting married is undoubtedly an irreparable blow to a woman's feelings and dignity, not to mention the anger of Her Majesty the Queen, who is the king of a country who has no jokes. .

Xie Changting said lightly: "We need to move faster, the Imperial Forest Army doesn't even need a cup of tea to reach the temple from outside."

When the Imperial Forest Army surrounded the temple, let alone a fly inside couldn't get out, it would be difficult for flies outside to fly in.

Biyue inspected the surroundings for a while, and found that this place is actually a dead corner. It is too reluctant to call it the back mountain. At best, it can only be regarded as a cliff. If you go down, unless you are really blessed by the gods, you will definitely not find even a bone.

There is only a narrow path leading to the bottom of the mountain, which can only allow two people to pass in parallel. It goes straight to the main gate of the priest's hall. Next to the left side of where they stand, there is a dense forest that looks eerie and dangerous. Even if you don't experience it yourself , from the flusteringly quiet atmosphere faintly revealed around, one can probably guess that this place is not a good place.

No wonder there are no guards here, because there is no need at all. Once someone enters here and is found, the guards in the front hall can immediately block the path down the mountain. The direct result of these two choices is that the body will be smashed to pieces, or there will be no bones left.

"Prime Minister Xie, have you thought about how we can get out of here later?" Bi Yue asked with a smile.

"I'm afraid this small temple of priests won't be able to trap Xie. If he can get in, he can also get out." Seeing the moment when Her Majesty's noble figure left the temple, Xie Changting and Su Mo The three of Biyue entered the hall with ease as if they had entered the land of no one. In the blink of an eye before the [-] Imperial Forest Army surrounded the temple, the three of them had successfully concealed their figures.

Although Su Mo didn't speak, her expression showed that she had exactly the same thoughts as Xie Changting, the little priest hall, people from Jiuluo dare not approach at will, so how can they trap her?Even if there were [-] imperial guards guarding her tightly, she would not pay too much attention to it. If she couldn't beat her, she still had the ability to run.

As for Biyue, it's just an itchy question. If the owner of Fengyilou was really that bad, he might have been slapped to death by his master many years ago. How could he survive until now?
The priest's hall is different from the palaces in the palace. Most of them are old and monotonous buildings. If you enter from the main gate, you will walk along an avenue with sphinxes and other giant sculptures on both sides. After entering, you will see the outer courtyard. There are stone houses where the servants live.Then there is the inner hall, generally only pure priests can enter here, unless there are important sacrificial activities or other solemn ceremonies that need help, the waiters will be allowed to make an exception to enter.

The inner hall is a majestic and exaggeratedly large hall. There are rows of huge pillars. All the walls and floors are made of ancient stones. On the stone walls are various ancient carving patterns, most of which are birds and animals. .In the center of the main hall, there is a row of off-white stone sculptures with a light blue color that cannot be identified as birds. Su Mo seemed to pay more attention to it after studying it, Xie Changting said in a low voice: "This is the legendary Qingluan divine bird. "

It is not surprising that Jiuluo, who is respected by the queen, has a stone carving of Qingluan, the king of birds, in the temple.

Su Mo nodded.

Going to the innermost part, there is a huge stone door. The double door panels are made of thick metal materials, which also look old, and the color has faded to the point that it is impossible to see what kind of material it is made of.

Entering through this door is the temple that only the high priest is qualified to enter.

The sound of uniform footsteps came from outside. It seemed that [-] imperial soldiers had entered the inner hall by the Queen's order and firmly guarded the outer hall.

"If the third princess and the great prince don't want to wait for death, the time just now is enough for them to escape."

"I can't escape." Xie Changting said calmly, "The last master forgot where we came in? If they want to escape, that is the only exit, but it is also the exit that will surely die. There is nothing they can do about the evidence, once they escape, they will be convicted of conspiracy to disobey."

The door of the temple was open. Looking from a distance, dozens of people on the left and right were kneeling on the ground with their backs to the door.Perhaps it was because the queen had left at this time, except for the dozens of people on the left who were all dressed in white and white robes, who were still maintaining their original submissive postures, the group of people on the right, headed by a middle-aged man, had all stood up.

Su Mo squinted his eyes. Looking in their direction, he could vaguely see an altar at the front of the temple. On the altar sat cross-legged a man in white clothes and a white robe. It was just a little far away. Some can't see clearly.

Su Mo looked around, there was no place to hide here, and if they entered the temple directly, with their skills, except for the man on the altar, the others would not notice because their backs were turned.

Su Mo looked at Xie Changting with her chest around her chest, and raised her chin towards the hall, "The man on the altar is the high priest?"

Xie Changting nodded.

Bi Yue was a little puzzled. Up until now, he still didn't understand the reason why Su Mo wanted to enter the temple. The marriage ceremony had been cancelled, and the queen had already left. Since there was no more fun to watch, he thought he would go back to the Jiuluo Palace to see the queen. Counterinsurgency is more interesting. What is there to see in this lifeless temple of priests?

Could it be that the master came to see what the chief priest looked like?
"High Priest..." A voice suddenly came from the hall. It was a middle-aged man standing in the front row on the right, with a cold questioning and anger that could not be concealed, "Why did you go against Her Majesty's will?" ?”

Su Mo raised his eyebrows. Didn't he say that all the subjects of Jiuluo were in awe of the high priest?Who is this person who dares to question the holy high priest in such a disrespectful tone?

"He is the queen's uncle, Ye Jinghai, but because of his surname, the queen always calls him the emperor's uncle. He is the great prince in the royal family, who is under one man and above ten thousand people, and is also the dragon rider who is in charge of eighty thousand dragon riders. General."

No wonder you are so arrogant... Su Mo thought for a moment, as if he suddenly thought of something, "Is he the mastermind behind Situ Wanrou?"

If this is the case, it makes sense, why he objected to the marriage between the empress and the high priest on the surface, but in private he was so unhappy that the high priest suddenly repented of the marriage... Well, it seems that she guessed right, the one who repented of the marriage was indeed high priest.

"What Situ Wanrou wants is the throne of the empress, and the great prince wants the status of the most powerful official in Jiuluo. Only by cooperating with each other can we achieve the goal." Xie Changting said lightly, "However, now it seems that it is a bamboo basket. Fetch water, the game is empty."

"As a high priest, marrying the queen is a blasphemy against the gods and an unforgivable sin." The high priest in white robes sat on the sacred altar with his eyes closed, expressionless on his face, and neither was his ethereal voice. A touch of emotion.

Su Mo, who was outside the door, could clearly feel the aura surrounding him, which was holy like a god, which taught people not to dare to desecrate.

The corner of Xie Changting's mouth suddenly curled up into a slight smile, and he looked at Su Mo's expression with some interest, "Master Mo, don't be fooled by this illusion."

Um? "Illusion?"

After the high priest finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the temple.

This time Xie Changting just smiled and said nothing, without any further explanation.

After a while, the ethereal voice sounded again: "Don't have illusions. Don't covet things that don't belong to you, otherwise, your uncontrollable greed will only kill you."

"This princess does not believe in evil!"

The cold and coquettish voice suddenly sounded, and came out of the hall, Su Mo's eyes lit up, she was very familiar with this voice, although it was no longer soft and gentle, but obviously there was no need to question it, it was indeed the pretending county she saw in Langzhou The Lord's Bai Wanrou.

It was really effortless.

"Bai Qilang, you designed to sabotage this princess' plan, right? You first pretended to cooperate with this princess and won her trust, but at the most critical moment, you gave her the most fatal blow. Are you really Despicable, what kind of high priest are you calling yourself, you are such a hypocritical and cunning person, how can you be worthy of being my high priest in Jiuluo?!"

After a roar, there was an uproar in the hall, and the faces of the priests kneeling on the ground on the left changed suddenly. They all stood up and turned to look at the extremely rude third princess in front of the temple, "The high priest serves the gods devoutly, and his identity Noble and holy, please be careful, Your Royal Highness, don't provoke the gods and bring disaster to Jiuluo."

The royal family standing behind the three princesses on the right also looked angrily, "Princess, please go to the gods to plead guilty, and ask the gods and the high priest to forgive you for your ignorance and offense."

Ignorance... She is full of scheming about the supremacy of the empress, dreaming of being on the dragon chair, but at this time, in the eyes of others, she has become ignorant?How could an ignorant person become an emperor that everyone believed in... Situ Wanrou gritted her teeth.

The high priest did not speak, obviously not paying attention to the offense in her words.

Su Mo's eyes lit up, and her starry eyes shone brightly.

Bai Qilang...
