Silence.

After she asked, endless silence spread among each other. The cave was quiet, except for the crackling sound of burning.

Jomo clenched his fist.

All the time, she had been warming the fire as if by accident. She lowered her head and could not see the face of the high priest. However, as time went on and this silence continued, her heart became more and more nervous.

Why doesn't he talk?

Did he see anything?

Or is he starting to doubt her?

……

For a long time.

"Let's go..." Finally, the high priest spoke, with a little dejected in his voice, and said lightly, "..." I'll take you back. "

He just skipped the topic.

He didn't answer a word about "what to look for.".

Jomo frowned.

She seems to be relieved, but the previous tension has turned into suffocation.

"No more." Joe murmured and added some firewood to the fire. "You go, I'll stay here."

"Do you know the way?" Asked the high priest, he turned outside the cave and looked at the dark night Do you know how to get back? "

Jomo was dumb.

She didn't know the way back to the cabin, but she didn't want to go with him.

“…… Forget it Hesitated for a long time, she finally chose to refuse, "it's so dark outside, there should be a lot of monsters you make wandering around, right? I don't want to be pursued again. "

She didn't want to meet the guard beast again.

"They..." It seemed that the high priest intended to say something, even almost blurted out, but before he said the key, he held it back.

After a pause, he said, "I'll take you back. It's safe."

Jomo didn't answer.

She was still sitting, adding firewood to the fire, showing her attitude with her actions. She intended to ignore the other side in the end, no matter what the high priest said nonsense, she refused to listen.

But

But the high priest went around her and remained silent for a while.

Then, she felt a warm shoulder, he took off his robe and put it on her shoulder.

"You..." Jomo's nerves tightened and he wanted to take it down reflexively.

He moves faster.

Before she started to wave it away, he took a faster step and pressed her shoulders across the robe.

"You're safe." The voice of the high priest sounded behind her ears, not far away, not very close. He seemed to explain, and he seemed to promise, "nothing will hurt you in my clothes."

Qiao Mu was slightly stunned What does he mean?

"You can stay here." Before she could figure it out, the high priest straightened up and said, "whatever you want."

With that, he raised his foot and went straight out of the cave into the night.

…………

It was quiet again.

Jomo waited for a long time to make sure that there was no sound outside. He was really far away, and finally breathed. But she didn't understand that the high priest was willing to go so simply?

She didn't give him any useful information when he came this time.

But again, he didn't tell her the key: even if she found the "anchor", she didn't know how to go back to her world

Alas

After a while, Jomo got up on his own.

The robe on her shoulder fell to the ground.

Jomo couldn't help looking back and wondering: did the high priest walk so simply? Was this robe equal to his surveillance? He put something in his robe?

No.

I don't think so. She went through it and didn't find anything in it.

That is Really defending her?

But she couldn't see anything special about the robe, and she couldn't smell anything. No matter, put it away first. In case it's really an unimpeded certificate to pass through the world, it will be useful.

Thinking of this, Jomo simply rolled up the material and took it in his arms.

Then, she went to the entrance of the cave, wanted to distinguish a little direction, and set out to go back early tomorrow morning

She saw the red fire.

"Jomo?" With the light of the fire, there was an anxious cry, "Jomo Can you hear me? "

"Joe Jomo

……

One voice is small nine.

Another voice is not clear, is Wolf?

Xiaojiu and Xiaolang came to see her?

"Here I am." Jomo's face a joy, quickly toward the direction of the light source, loud response, "I'm here in the cave!"

…………The cave, which used to be cold, suddenly became lively.

Xiaojiu and Xiaolang should have been looking for her for a long time, especially Xiaolang. When they saw her, they held her and refused to let go. Small nine is tired to sit on the ground, tears of joy.

"I thought something happened to you..." Small nine takes the lead to open a mouth, the voice takes to cry a cavity, "when we come back, there already changed greatly.". A lot of things happened today. I don't know if you were taken away... "

Xiao Jiu can't go on.

"I..." Jomo was equally heavy. She was taken away and almost transformed into a monster, but she was safe after all. But little nine's friends will never come back.

She could only pat Xiaojiu on the shoulder, "it will pass It's going to get better. "

Xiaojiu finally cried out: "here, our life has always been Thank you, Jomo I I'm really afraid of the high priest. As soon as they show up, I'll be so afraid... "

"They?" Do you mean protecting animals?

"Even the envoys of the high priest, we never know what they are studying, and we have no right not to cooperate with them..." Xiaojiu is still crying.

Jomo was breathing hard.

Wait!

Emissary? Or an aide to the high priest?

If there were such a person, would those people tell him something that the high priest would not tell her?

Always try!

"They Where is it? " After thinking about it for a long time, Joe asked.

"You..." Small nine one Leng, seem to be scared not light, then repeatedly shake head to wave a hand, "too dangerous! And where they are, there are terrible things out there You can't get close. You'll die. "

"Something terrible?"

"It's the monsters Made by the high priest, many monsters... " Small nine is still shaking his head, "those monsters are very fierce, and the strength is very big, it is impossible to survive from the hands of monsters..."

Jomo understood: it's the protected beast!

"Don't worry." She chuckled, patted the robe that had been rolled up before patting, and looked like, "I think I'm here for the time being, so it's unimpeded?" Look, isn't that going to come in handy?
