Chapter 475 My loved ones!
The high priest glanced at her coldly, and said in despair, "I said, I have been working hard for so many years, and I am about to succeed, but I don't want to fall into the hands of a girl of unknown origin at the most critical moment. God's will tricks people, what is it?"

Cheng Yu said anxiously, "That's not what I'm asking, what I'm asking you is, what did you say about time and space and drifting away just now, what do you mean by that?"

The high priest snorted disdainfully, "Can't you understand human language?"

Cheng Yu anxiously wanted to give him a needle, "Could it be that you came from another time and space? If so, how many years have you been here? How did you come here?"

As soon as Cheng Yu was in a hurry, he asked a lot of words, and at the same time exposed his emotions.

The high priest also slowly put away his indifferent attitude of contempt, and stared at Cheng Yu intently, showing an incredulous expression, "You, you too?"

The word "also" already means that the high priest is the same as Cheng Yu, and there is no need for Cheng Yu to ask.

Knowing the truth, both of them seemed very excited.

Cheng Yu asked again, "How long have you been here?"

The high priest hesitated for a while, then replied, "Thousands of years."

"Thousands of years? Thousands of years?" Cheng Yu repeated twice in shock, "So you are at least 1000 years old? You really can't tell from your appearance."

Cheng Yu clicked his tongue twice, "Practitioner, you are the first person I have seen who has lived for a thousand years. Of course, those three people are not counted. They have a very long life span..."

Mentioning the mermaid tribe, Cheng Yu's brain suddenly slammed, and a thought flashed through him, then he glanced at the lake behind him, and then opened his mouth wide, looking at the high priest, "Come here thousands of years ago, could it be that you are From the Shark Race?"

The high priest's expression changed drastically when he heard these three words, "You, how did you know?"

Cheng Yu was stunned for a while, and suddenly burst out laughing. She didn't expect that the high priest was actually the clansman that the mermaid tribe asked her to find.

Cheng Yu said happily, "Of course I know it from your people."

"Clan people?" The man was puzzled.

Cheng Yu said, "There are only three clansmen left on your island. They asked us to help find them. They thought it was impossible, but who knew they would meet here."

Following Cheng Yu's words, the man's expression became more and more unbelievable.

Cheng Yu held his hand excitedly, "Now that I have found you, we can find a way to go back together. By the way, I haven't asked you if you want to go back yet?"

"If I don't want to go back, why bother to do this?" The high priest smiled wryly.

"That would be great." Cheng Yu was as excited as seeing a relative.

"Can you let me go first?" the man said suddenly.

Cheng Yu was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he was so happy that he forgot that the person was still pinned down by him.

Cheng Yu smiled embarrassingly, and hurriedly collected the silver needle, "I'm sorry, I was so excited that I forgot."

The high priest who was freed waved at her, expressing his indifference.

Next, the two went to the tent of the high priest not far from the lake, and chatted while drinking tea.

The high priest asked Cheng Yu, "How did you come here? And how did you know my people? I remember that on that island, humans couldn't go there. My people, are they all right?"

"Okay, everything is fine, but I have never given up looking for you." Cheng Yu said.

"For thousands of years, we haven't given up on finding the way back." The high priest looked at Cheng Yu, "You haven't talked about yourself yet."

"For me, I have only been here for a few days." Cheng Yu said.

"Are you also brought here by a mirror?" asked the High Priest.

"No, it's a long story." Cheng Yu then told how he went to their island to find the artifact, how he was entrusted by their tribe, and how he came here, "If you want to go back, you can only find the artifact. Since you are here, the artifact should be the Kunlun Mirror, you have been here for so many years, do you have any clues?"

The high priest sighed, picked up the teapot, refilled Cheng Yu's glass of water, and then said, "I have always suspected that the mirror, the Kunlun mirror you mentioned, should be in the border forest."

Cheng Yu understood, "That's why you always advocate attacking forest beasts."

The high priest said, "I have no enmity with the forest beasts. If not for this, why should I attack them?"

"How can you be sure that the artifact is in the forest? To tell you the truth, I also doubted it, but I searched there and found no sign of the artifact." Cheng Yu said.

"No? Is this impossible?" The high priest couldn't figure it out.

Cheng Yu picked up the cup and shook his head, "I really didn't find out, why are you so sure?"

The high priest said, "Because before I came here, the forest beasts did not exist, nor did they not exist, but they were very different from the forest beasts now. At that time, they were just a group of ordinary beasts in the forest. They are just human beings, not like today's forest beasts, who are good at speaking, witty and powerful."

"In this way, it is very similar to the changes caused by divine artifacts, but no matter which divine artifacts, there will be certain side effects when the changes occur, but I haven't found this in the forest beast, so, This is also why I have not been sure that the forest beast is caused by an artifact." Cheng Yu said.

The two of them didn't speak for a while, and after a while, Cheng Yu asked again, "Have you ever found similar strange phenomena in other places?"

The high priest shook his head, "I have traveled all over the place, but I have never found it. Only this forest, I have explored this forest countless times, but unfortunately, I can't get close to their lair every time. , they are too alert."

Cheng Yu said, "You can use that singing voice to hypnotize those forest beasts first, just like you did to me."

The high priest smiled wryly, "I tried it, but it didn't work."

Cheng Yu didn't believe it, "Impossible, it works for me."

The high priest said, "This is outside the forest, but near their lairs, the singing power is greatly reduced, as if they have been restricted."

Cheng Yu thought for a while, "According to what you said, the artifact may still be in the forest, but is it there? Or do we need to go in and investigate again."

"They should have already listed me as the number one villain. I can't get close to them, but they seem to have a good impression of you, and you should still have a chance to go in." The high priest analyzed.

"It's okay to go in, but the most important thing right now is not to start a war. If they attack again, their goodwill towards me will be completely gone." Cheng Yu said his concerns.

"I can think of a way to do this, and I will try my best to stop them, but I don't think I can stop them for too long," the high priest said.

Cheng Yu said, "Don't the city lord and his younger brother trust you? Your words don't work?"

The high priest said, "Who will listen to people who are dazzled by interests? The city owner may still have a little sense, as for his younger brother, Zhao Cheng, he will not give up. Don't look at him smiling all day long. But my heart is much crazier than his brother, the reason why they trust me is that I can help them eradicate forest beasts, and the reason why I am their high priest is precisely because everyone has the same goal."

When Zhao Cheng was mentioned, Cheng Yu told him about Zhao Cheng's suspicion of trying to murder the Young City Lord.

The high priest was not too surprised when he heard this, "Zhao Cheng is a man with a very deep city, coupled with the ambition in his heart, it is very possible to do these things, first get rid of the son of the city lord, and then, It is possible that in the next war against the forest beasts, the city lord will be eliminated and he will die at the hands of the forest beasts. , it can be said that this plan is seamless."

Cheng Yu sighed, "This is simply too scary."

The high priest said calmly, "I am much older than you, and I have seen too many similar examples. Power can make people crazy enough to abandon everything."

After the talk, Cheng Yu quietly went back to her tent before dawn, so that no one knew about her meeting with the high priest last night.

Cheng Yu discussed with the high priest that she was going to enter the forest again, and the high priest tried to prevent the two brothers from fighting outside, looking for an artifact for Cheng Yu and delaying time.

Knowing that time was running out, Cheng Yu was ready to leave the next day. Originally, she wanted to leave quietly, but since her return, the Young City Lord has been following her inseparably, making it impossible for her to leave at all.

In desperation, Cheng Yu prepared to take him with him. Although the forest beast was dangerous, staying here with his second uncle who wanted to murder him was not much safer than the forest beast.

Hearing that Cheng Yu was going to the forest beast, the Young City Lord was terrified.

Seeing him like that, Cheng Yu said, "If you dare not go, stay here."

Shaocheng opened his mouth a few times before speaking, "Who, who dare not? If you dare, of course I will."

He was obviously scared in his heart, but he still wanted to slap his face swollen to look fat, Cheng Yu couldn't help but sighed, "Don't force yourself..."

"It's not at all forced." Then the young city lord said again, "If you don't let me follow, I'll tell my father."

Cheng Yu rolled his eyes at him, "Then hurry up and leave."
