Chapter 304 High Priest Selection

Chapter 304 High Priest Selection

"As for why the high fever killed all the poisonous insects in the body, Ali doesn't know." Tian Ningxue raised her head and looked at the high priest without a trace of panic in her eyes.

The high priest and Tian Ningxue looked at each other for a while, then smiled and said, "Haha, I'm glad you came back safely. Those poisonous insects are fine. You can plant them again later."

People living in the forbidden area must have several kinds of poisonous insects planted in their bodies, which is one of the reasons why there are almost no traitors in the forbidden area.

After all, human hearts are unpredictable. In the opinion of the high priest, these poisonous insects are more reliable.

"Yes." Tian Ningxue was not surprised at all. She had been in a similar situation before, but not like hers, where there was not a single poisonous insect left in her body.

Those whose poisonous insects are damaged will be replanted with some poisonous insects after returning to the forbidden area. Before this, Tian Ningxue thought it was a good thing to be able to replenish the poisonous insects.

But after being with Su Tang for a while, she gradually realized that replanting them with poisonous insects was actually to control them more securely.

The high priest waved his hand and said nothing more to Tian Ningxue, who immediately retreated from the stone chamber.

After Tian Ningxue left, a man came out from the inner room of the stone chamber. He was wearing an ancient mask on his face, and a muffled voice came out from behind the mask.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with Ali." The Wu clan believed that nothing could compare to their poisonous insects, and that only poisonous insects in the world could control others.

Therefore, in the masked man's mind, Tian Ningxue, who does not have any poisonous insects in her body at this moment, is the safest.

"Maybe, but the Xuantian Order that I asked her to find before has not been found yet." The high priest said a little tiredly.

The high priestess looked to be no more than fifty years old, but her actual life span was over a hundred years. She didn't have much time left, and perhaps she didn't have time to wait for the token.

The high priest sighed and said, "Then let's hurry up and elect the next high priest."

"Yes." The masked man responded.

Su Tang's arrival did not attract the attention of everyone in the forbidden area.

First, Su Tang was brought back by Tian Ningxue. Tian Ningxue has always been aloof and doesn't like to communicate with others. It is difficult for ordinary people to catch her eye. Since she was brought back by Tian Ningxue, she must have some abilities.

Secondly, I heard that Su Tang was a doctor. Although their witch doctor clan also had the word "medicine" in their clan, they used two completely different methods to treat people.

Another point is that, I heard that their witch doctor clan used to have a branch that specialized in treating humans and did not deal with poisonous insects, but for some reason they have become the only witch doctor clan that raises poisonous insects nowadays.

Therefore, they could accept receiving Su Tang, an outsider who came to consult medicine.

However, Su Tang's movements in the forbidden area were still restricted. After she was taken into a stone chamber, she was guarded and not allowed to go out.

Su Tang didn't say anything, but just moved quietly in the stone chamber. She also knew that she had just arrived and couldn't make too many movements.

"I'm back." Just as Su Tang was walking in the house, Tian Ningxue also returned from outside.

"Are you okay?" Su Tang asked with concern.

"It's okay." Tian Ningxue shook her head, but didn't say much.

"I may have to replant the poisonous insects in a while, so you just stay in the house and don't walk around outside." Tian Ningxue reminded again.

"Yes, I know." Su Tang nodded in agreement.

Su Tang stayed quietly in the forbidden area for two days. During these two days, Tian Ningxue left early in the morning every day and did not come back until dark. Every time she came back, Tian Ningxue's complexion did not look very good and was extremely pale.

Su Tang knew that Tian Ningxue must have been taken away to be re-inoculated with poisonous insects. Those poisonous insects feed on the blood of the host, so Tian Ningxue's face looked so bad.

It was not until Tian Ningxue went there for two consecutive days that on the third day, Tian Ningxue finally stopped going out early in the morning.

Tian Ningxue has been very weak since she came back these days, so she didn't talk to Su Tang at night and fell asleep as soon as she came back.

"Hmm..." Tian Ningxue woke up naturally, then turned her head to look at Su Tang who was sitting in the house reading a book.

"You didn't go out." Tian Ningxue asked after standing up.

"No, didn't you tell me not to wander around?" Su Tang didn't even raise her head. The book in her hand was exactly what she had found in Tian Ningxue's stone chamber. It contained records on how to raise poisonous insects.

Su Tang has been spending her time these days with these books.

"Well, it's good that you didn't go out. The next high priest will be selected in a few days. Once the new poisonous insects in my body are more stable, I can run for election." Tian Ningxue slowly stood up, and after saying this, she closed her eyes and began to regulate her breathing.

The stone chamber fell into silence again, with only the occasional sound of Su Tang flipping through books audible in the room.

A few days passed quite quickly and Tian Ningxue finally adjusted herself.

And the activity of selecting the next high priest is about to begin.

As a spectator, Su Tang can go and watch.

This selection activity was held in the forbidden area.

Su Tang was not surprised to see the familiar figure again.

But she remembered that Tian Ningxue said that this person's bloodline was impure, so why did she come here?

At this time, there were several stone platforms placed in the middle of the huge open space, and a woman was sitting on each platform.

Tian Ningxue was sitting on one of the stone platforms, and Ana, whom she had met a few times, was also sitting on a stone platform.

These stone platforms face a tall stone tower, under which there are stone components such as an altar.

However, Su Tang was in a low position and could not see clearly what was placed on the altars.

Then an old woman standing in front of the tower began to recite something quickly and loudly to the tower.

Su Tang didn't understand anyway, but she had secretly taken out the recorder and recorded all the sounds at the scene, thinking of asking Tian Ningxue later.

Just when Su Tang and the others' legs were feeling a little numb, the chanting above suddenly stopped.

Then the old man took a wooden box from the altar and handed it to the man next to him.

The man held the wooden box high with reverence, came down from the platform and walked to the women sitting on the stone platform.

Su Tang could now see clearly what was inside the wooden box. It turned out that there was a blood-red fleshy worm inside the wooden box.

The flesh worm seemed to sense something and suddenly jumped out of the wooden box and went straight to a stone platform.

And the person sitting on the stone platform was Tian Ningxue.

"Impossible!" Ana, who was standing on another stone platform, suddenly stood up after seeing this scene and looked at the red flesh worm in disbelief.

Just as she was about to step down from the stone platform to see if the fleshworm had lost its mind, she was suddenly grabbed by the arms by two people behind her.

However, the people who captured her did not take her away. They just stood there with her arms tied behind her back.
