Prehistoric: The female saint Shiji, brilliant and talented
Chapter 538: Being courteous for nothing is either adultery or theft
Shiji walked to the back garden and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Every second with Jieyin was torture for him.
But why did Jie Yin suddenly come to the Wu Clan? There was no grudge between the two.
There is no such thing as a good thing if you don't come to visit for no reason!
The situation has become complicated now.
Shiji looked at the location of her own bedroom, but did not go in that direction. Instead, she came to Xuanming's bedroom.
"Sister Shiji, why did you come to see me suddenly? I don't have anything delicious to eat or drink. If anything happens, just tell me, I will definitely help you!" Seeing Xuanming's enthusiasm, Shiji felt the long-lost warmth. He chuckled and stopped Xuanming who was about to get food.
"Sister, there's no need to go to so much trouble. This time, my brother came here to ask for a favor."
Something happened? Xuan Ming's expression immediately turned cold, and he asked anxiously, "What is it?"
"I want to go back to Jin'ao Island to discuss something with my master. But Brother Dijiang is talking to the two saints from the West right now, so I can't ask for instructions directly. So, sister, can you agree to let me go?"
Xuanming was hesitant. It was not that she could not make a decision, but she was worried about Shiji's safety during the journey.
After a long time, she stood up, walked to a cabinet, took out something and handed it to Shiji.
"Junior sister, you must keep this item safe. If you are in danger, just pull the rope gently and I will know your whereabouts. Take it and go find your master quickly."
Shiji knew very well that she was capable of dealing with those dangers. After walking out of the bedroom, the items in her hands reminded her of Xuanming's worries. She lowered her head and a touched smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Jin'ao Island is now heavily guarded and was almost unrecognizable when Shiji arrived.
"Master, please open the barrier for our disciples." Shiji sent a message to Tongtian. As soon as they stepped into the barrier, the disciples swarmed in, excited.
"Junior Sister Shiji, you are finally back! We all missed you so much. How are you living among the human race and with Lady Nuwa? Is it more interesting than here?"
Everyone asked questions and the scene was in chaos.
Although Shiji wanted to tell the story of the human race in detail and share it with everyone, she didn't know where to start for a moment.
"Cough cough."
Suddenly, a slight cough was heard and the disciples turned around at the same time.
When they saw Tongtian's calm eyes, they immediately dispersed, and the originally noisy place instantly became silent.
"Disciple greets Master." Shiji hurriedly saluted. Tongtian was happy in his heart. Seeing his disciple return safely to Jin'ao Island, he really hoped that she could stay by his side forever.
"Well, come with me."
In Biyou Palace, Tongtian realized that Shiji must have something to come back to him, and he looked at Shiji with a serious expression.
"Disciple, what happened?"
Shiji was slightly surprised. How did Tongtian guess that she had something to say?
She met Tongtian's gaze, and their eyes were conveying messages. In less than a few seconds, Shiji understood.
When Tongtian understood everything, his face suddenly turned cold. Since the two saints from the West were able to visit the Wu clan, they were actually secretly using words to confuse Dijiang in order to promote the war.
"Master, was the incident in the village caused by the two saints from the West?"
Although there was no conclusive evidence for this matter, everyone understood it, and Tongtian nodded.
"Disciple, since the two tribes of witches and liches have reached a reconciliation, I don't know what Jie Yin will say to make them change their minds, but if Di Jiang shows any abnormal behavior, you must take immediate measures, otherwise the situation will only get worse."
"Disciple understands." Shiji is now full of confidence. She opened her spiritual sense and wanted to check whether Jie Yin and Zhunti had done anything excessive in the Wu clan.
However, what she saw made her furious.
Zhunti got many rare things from somewhere that can help those who practice improve their practice speed and efficiency.
He gave these items to each of the ancestor witches one by one, trying to win their favor.
Sure enough, he achieved his goal.
Shiji turned to look at Tongtian and was about to speak, but Tongtian shook his head.
"Disciple, we don't have to worry for now. These things are just part of Jie Yin and Zhunti's plan. They will not stop until they achieve their goal. What we have to do is to stop them!"
Tongtian slammed the table. As long as he was there, he would never let their plan succeed!
At this time, Jie Yin and Zhunti wanted to stay. Di Jiang smiled awkwardly to express his welcome, but he began to doubt their real purpose in his heart.
Shiji is usually with Xuanming, and Dijiang immediately conveyed the message in his heart.
"Xuan Ming, ask Shi Ji how much he knows about the Two Saints of the West. I always feel that their purpose is not as simple as they say."
Xuan Ming, who was having a sweet dream, suddenly woke up and dared not tell Shi Ji's true whereabouts.
"Brother...Brother, I don't know where Shiji went."
Dijiang thought Shiji was in trouble, so he didn't ask any more questions. However, when he was about to send a message to Shiji, he felt that the aura around Shiji was different from that of the Wu Clan.
"Shiji, where are you now?" Dijiang asked in a serious tone, his mood so gloomy that it seemed as if he was about to explode in the next second.
Shiji didn't say anything, but transmitted the message to others. Tongtian could tell Shiji's mood after hearing it.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Dijiang. Long time no see. How have you been lately?"
Why is this voice so familiar, and is it related to Shiji? Dijiang thought about the possible person in his mind, but he always felt that person was impossible. He spoke tentatively.
"You...you are Daoist Tongtian?"
Tongtian didn't expect that his acceptance of a disciple was not known to everyone. Why did Dijiang seem to be unaware of it?
"It's down."
The two quickly became familiar with each other. After a long while, Di Jiang realized that he still had something important to say, so he calmed down and spoke seriously.
"Shiji, do the two saints from the West have any grudges against you? Now fellow Daoist Jieyin has always been curious about your views on the war between wizards and liches."
As expected, Tongtian nodded slightly and understood why the two brothers came. Shiji also knew the reason and told most of the contradictions.
Di Jiang didn't speak for a long time, and his expression changed occasionally. Jie Yin couldn't figure out his thoughts, so he could only observe silently.
"Daoyou Dijiang?" Jie Yin asked tentatively. Today he had to know which side Shiji supported!
Dijiang came back to his senses and looked at Jieyin with an apologetic look. When he understood what kind of person Jieyin really was, he felt a sense of hypocrisy.
He coughed lightly and declined the invitation.
"I'm sorry, Brother Jieyin, I was just thinking about something and didn't notice it. I don't know the specific decision about what you want to ask. Brother Shiji has never told me these words."
These words sounded a bit sad, but Jie Yin didn't believe them at all. He rolled his eyes silently in the dark. Di Jiang just didn't want to say it!
On Jin'ao Island, Shiji was in a hurry. She wanted to disrupt Jieyin and Zhunti's plan immediately!
"Master, I want to expose the true identity of the two saints in the West, so that the two tribes can stop the war." Tongtian's face was gloomy, and he immediately rejected Shiji's idea. Shiji couldn't understand why the master refused?
"It's not the time to be anxious yet, my disciple. Even if you expose it now, they can still find excuses to say bad things about the witch clan. By then, it won't just be the witch and lich clans that are involved."
It seems that his apprentice still lacks experience, no matter how strong his skills are, Tongtian thought secretly.
Shiji was stunned for a moment, then realized that she had not considered so many causes and consequences. She immediately understood her problem.
She stood up and asked for punishment.
"Master, it's my fault. I am willing to bear the punishment."
Tongtian did not answer immediately. His eyes were focused on Shiji, and he did not look away for several breaths.
He waved his hand, and Shiji slowly stood up with one hand on the ground, but she did not sit back in the chair.
"My disciple, I don't intend to punish you. But I need you to remember to think carefully before doing anything, and don't let things like today happen again."
"Disciple obeys." After this little lesson, Shiji was deeply impressed. She bowed respectfully.
Tongtian looked at Shiji with admiration and motioned her to sit down.
He can remember the disciple's talents and abilities as well as the lessons taught, and is a teachable son.
Now Shiji was impatient. She could not accept the two saints from the West using these tricks to bribe the brothers and sisters. Even if they were not completely bribed, it would be easy for them to have different opinions on how to deal with the war between the two tribes.
She hesitated for a moment and told Tongtian her thoughts exactly as they were.
Tongtian pondered for a moment and decided to help Shiji.
He waved his left hand, and a small ceramic bottle appeared on the palm of his right hand. He stretched out his hand slightly, and the bottle moved to Shiji's side.
"There are two pills in this bottle. You can add them to food in various shapes. They are colorless and tasteless, but they will cause hallucinations. You can ask any question in this hallucination and you will get the correct answer."
Shiji looked at the thing in her hand in amazement. It turned out to have so many uses! She never expected it!
"Thank you, Master!" She was extremely happy. It seemed that things had taken a new turn for the better.
Seeing this, Tongtian also revealed a barely perceptible smile.
After staying on Shi'ao Island for nearly a day, Shiji suddenly remembered that she had promised Xuanming to go back early. She quickly stood up and explained the matter to Tongtian.
"Master, I promised Sister Xuanming that I would rush back today, so I can't stay with you."
Tongtian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
"Okay, then go quickly."
On the way back, the setting sun shone on Shiji's face. The scenery was really beautiful.
Before dark, Shiji returned to the Wu Clan. Jieyin and Zhunti had not left yet. Seeing this, Shiji no longer felt disgusted. She curled her lips, and it seemed that the good show tonight was about to begin.
"Shiji, you must have gained a lot today, right?" Dijiang asked cryptically. Shiji smiled and nodded when she heard this.
Jie Yin witnessed the secret communication between the two and couldn't help feeling curious.
Just as he was about to ask, Shiji suddenly turned and left, everything seemed to be arranged in advance. Jie Yin was furious, this was undoubtedly a deliberate provocation!
Shiji caught Jie Yin's reaction out of the corner of her eye and couldn't help but chuckle to herself. Tease people like this was quite fun.
He did not return directly to his own bedroom, but went to Xuanming's residence.
"Brother Shiji, how come you have time to visit me today? You come twice in one day." Xuan Ming was slightly surprised, and then joked with Shiji.
"Sister, I came here to ask for a favor. I wonder if you can lend me a hand?" Shiji smiled gently, and Xuanming wished he could agree immediately.
However, she felt a little disappointed. It seemed that her brother only came to her for help. If there was nothing important, he would not come to her on his own initiative.
As his thoughts raced, Xuan Ming's face unconsciously revealed a look of loss.
"Sister, what's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly so unhappy?" Shi Ji asked with concern. Was she thinking of something? But Xuan Ming didn't say much, just found an excuse to get by.
After entering the house, Shiji went straight to the point and told Xuanming everything he needed help with, which surprised Xuanming.
How could this be decided so easily? Once it was leaked to the two saints in the west, the witch clan would face great disaster.
"Shiji, I can't promise you this. If something goes wrong, our entire family may be implicated, and neither you nor I can bear the consequences."
Shiji pursed his lips and did not respond. His face was solemn as he thought about the current situation. When he was fully confident, he spoke again.
"Don't worry, sister. This thing was given to me by Master. He gave it to me only after he confirmed that it was safe."
I see……
Xuanming thought about it and decided that Tongtian, as Shiji's master, must understand Shiji. In that case, she felt relieved.
She looked up into Shiji's eyes and said firmly, "Okay, sister, I'm willing to help you."
Things went smoothly. Xuanming pretended to be hungry and went to find Dijiang alone, while Shiji observed in the dark.
"Brother, I suddenly realized that the food cooked by Shiji is very delicious. I want to try it. Why don't we cook tonight and let Shiji cook."
Xuanming's description made Dijiang salivate. Since Shiji's cooking skills were so good, it wouldn't be a bad idea to let him cook a meal. So he readily agreed.
"Okay, but Shiji has to agree. You can't force him."
When Zhunti, who was standing by, heard that there was food, his saliva almost flowed out even though he hadn't seen the food yet.
However, Jie Yin's reaction was completely different. He suddenly had a plan in his mind.
He slowly stood up and said in a pleading tone: "Daoyou Dijiang, it's getting late. It's not convenient for the two of us to go back. I wonder if we can stay here for one night?"
Dijiang wanted to refuse, but suddenly he received a message from Shiji.
"Brother, don't refuse. I have a way to deal with them."
In that case, let's keep them!
Dijiang followed Shiji's advice and agreed to the requests of Jie Yin and Zhunti.
Shiji started to get busy preparing for tonight's meal. He put pills into every dish, thinking that it would be discovered, but he didn't expect that the pills could also have a seasoning effect, and the dishes he made were fragrant.
Before that, he needs to summon the twelve witch ancestors. (End of this chapter)
