Chapter 59 Chapter 59 "Walking around..." Father...
"Walking around..." After the priest said this, he couldn't help but grit his teeth. Anger and sadness flashed in his eyes for a moment, and his pale face became even paler, making people wonder if he was poisoned.
Just walking around, that sounds so easy! It doesn't matter! If it's such a trivial thing, why bother taking me along? But you, what did you do? You left without a word!
You are willing to do such a trivial thing, but you are unwilling to stay by my side. In your opinion, staying by my side is more insignificant than just taking a walk?
Am I really that worthless in your heart? You left without even a word. What do you want me to think? How do you want me to see you? What do you want me to do? How do you want others to see me? What on earth do you want me to do?!
You'd rather leave alone than have anything to do with me. So who am I to you? What do you think of me? I really don't understand.
The priest dropped his eyes and chuckled sarcastically.
Bai Tianming looked at him, hesitant to speak. He wanted to care about his health, but he felt that it was not appropriate to say so now. After all, they had just met, and talking about health seemed a bit too in-depth, as if they had a very good relationship.
Although Bai Tianming doesn't think that the quality of the relationship is a very important matter, from the other side's point of view, it is obvious that this cannot be ignored.
If he said the wrong thing, the other person would inevitably be angry. Bai Tianming thought about it and decided that it was better not to ask, so he remained silent.
At the same time, inside the temple, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Finally, someone spoke up to break the frozen atmosphere.
"Has any of you seen the priest?" asked the one who spoke.
"No."
"Neither did I."
"If you saw it, would you still be here?"
Everyone shook their heads, looked embarrassed, and sighed.
"I saw it." A person in the back row of the crowd was silent for a long time and suddenly said.
Everyone was startled and looked over quickly, their eyes scanning him like searchlights. They found that there was nothing special about him, and they couldn't help but raise their eyebrows in surprise.
Do priests value people like this these days? I haven't heard of any recent changes in priests' attitudes or aesthetics. How could he have seen this? Where did he see it?
He was a little nervous as everyone looked at him, but seeing their puzzled expressions, he opened his mouth and told them the details: "I saw him on my way here. I was in the corridor. I was about to come over when the priest came from the other end and I saw him."
He paused, a look of reminiscence in his eyes, a complicated expression, as he hesitated to speak. "It was normal at first, but when the priest came towards me, the book on his body suddenly flipped out, turned a page in front of him, and stopped. He only took a glance, and his face changed immediately, as if he had received some very important news, and then he disappeared immediately."
The others looked at each other and were silent for a while.
It sounds like it is quite important. After all, in their impression, the priest's expression never changed drastically before, because the priest was actually a very gloomy person.
He was so gloomy that ordinary things were not enough to cause a change in his expression, just as throwing a huge stone into the sea would not cause the sea level to rise by even a centimeter.
What's more, under normal circumstances, no matter what news he got, he would hardly go out. At most, he would give a solution through contact and let the people who were at the scene of the news solve it.
What kind of thing could make him leave immediately? Could it be that Bai Tianming was alive? That was absolutely impossible! Bai Tianming had died long ago, and this was a well-known fact.
An ordinary person cannot live long, even if he is very strong, it depends on the situation. For example, someone like Bai Tianming would not be able to live to this day no matter what.
It wasn't that they were discouraged or wanted to be lazy. The truth was, at the beginning they also believed, like the priest, that the man was alive. Under the priest's arrangement, they carried out various deductions.
One thing that still impressed them so far was that they tried to deduce where Bai Tianming would be after using the formation, but no matter when, where or who he was, they had no way of drawing out the formation completely.
At first, only an ordinary priest was arranged to draw the formation, but he found that he could not put pen to paper at all, so he replaced him with a stronger one. However, no matter how the candidates were changed, they got the same result.
Even the strongest among them was still more than halfway to completing the formation. This meant that no matter how strong a person was, after completing the formation, he would die due to excessive energy consumption and would have no chance to leave.
So it is impossible for Bai Tianming to be alive.
They reported the result to the priest, but the priest didn't believe it at all. The priest could draw the formation completely, but because the energy consumption was too great, there was no way to make the formation have the desired effect.
He later improved the formation and sent it to others. When they tried it again, they found that the improved formation was completely within their scope of use.
They use the improved formation, which can achieve the same effect with less consumption, but the effect is much weaker than the original formation.
From then on, they realized that Bai Tianming was much stronger than all of them combined, even the priest was no match for him, which was not surprising.
Because the priests have always believed this, and over time, they were also infected and began to believe this as well. Now it has been confirmed and is more accurate.
However, they also realized that the original formation should not be used lightly. If they insisted on using that formation without the ability, they would only desecrate the formation and harm themselves.
Because of this, they were even more certain that Bai Tianming would not survive. No one had ever used such a powerful formation and still lived. Even if he survived, he would not be able to get far away.
But at the priest's request, they had searched the area around the place where the formation was used, and even spread outward, searching places where it was impossible for people to be there, but found no trace at all.
If Bai Tianming was not reduced to ashes because he used an overly powerful formation, then he died quietly and disposed of his own body before dying.
They never doubted this. After all, in their minds, no matter how powerful a person is, they will die. Bai Tianming was much stronger than them, but he would still die. This did not violate the laws of nature.
In fact, they gathered in the temple this time because the priest had recently released a message to them collectively, telling them that someone had found some traces of Bai Tianming, and asked them to come for a meeting to discuss how to dig out all those traces, and preferably find Bai Tianming in one go.
When they received the message, they had a feeling that it was as expected, because most of the time the priest sent them messages, nine out of ten were related to Bai Tianming.
It's not that they are unwilling to do it, because the priest always lists Bai Tianming's affairs as the most important. When they receive such news and do such things, they usually have more time, greater power, and more manpower. There is nothing wrong with it, so naturally there is no one who is unwilling to do it.
However, day after day, I always do this kind of thing, but there is never any result. I can only find some trivial things. It is really time-consuming and frustrating.
Over time, they become somewhat unmotivated and seem to want to stay away from it, because they feel that no matter what they do, the result will be the same.
Because of this, they admired the priest even more. Besides the fact that the priest was better than them, having founded the temple and distributed scriptures, he was also so persistent in searching for a person who had almost disappeared. Even when everyone had lost confidence, he still persisted. From this point of view, the priest's mind was unmatched, and they definitely could not compare to him.
No wonder they were ruled by the priest. This was acceptable, but the priest suddenly left them here, something that had never happened before.
It's like—
It seemed that Bai Tianming was really still alive, and the priest got the news, so he rushed over to meet him.
If Bai Tianming was truly alive, his power would be unimaginable. And their previous speculations would be completely proven wrong. They suddenly began to feel a little nervous.
Could it be true? Could it be fake? What if it's true? Could it be true? Who knows! Why hasn't the priest returned yet? What is he doing?
People looked at each other, then glanced at each other, then, in tacit understanding, looked away. Their nervousness and anxiety were unified. Even their noisy heartbeats seemed to be vaguely synchronized.
The tall and magnificent temple was as quiet as ever. Everyone could almost hear their own heartbeats, which mixed with the heartbeats of others and almost became one single heartbeat.
They couldn't bear it any longer.
"How about we try to contact the priest? It's better than waiting all the time. Who knows how long we'll have to wait? We can't just sit here and wait and do nothing." A man suddenly spoke with a serious and nervous look on his face.
They unanimously agreed to this method and tried to contact the priest. Unexpectedly, they thought the priest would ignore them, but their contact was connected immediately.
The priest had an expressionless face. He held the opened Holy Scripture and said coldly to the people who contacted him, "I found Bai Tianming."
Everyone was shocked. Unexpectedly, their guess became reality. They all gasped. They had many questions to ask, but they didn't know which one to ask first.
