"Let the deserted people enter the inner ring to build roads for us?" Yin He was surprised and said, "This is unlikely. All the deserted tribes in the Great Wilderness are extremely awe of that sacred mountain. No deserted people are willing to approach the inner ring."

Ji Hou said lightly: "They can't help it."

Yin He was stunned. At this time, Wen Yun came over just right and said, "The thing is this: the deserted people fear the sacred mountain and refused to approach there. This is common sense in the Great Wilderness. But a few days ago, the high priest summoned the three elders of the Presbyterian Church to discuss and sternly scolded us for building roads in the inner ring for too slow progress..."

Yin He stood up and frowned and said, "It's a bit inappropriate to say this. I came out of the inner ring and stayed in it for three years. I know the hardships of building roads in it. The omnipresent magical power of the sacred mountain can erode the body. There are still various unheard of dangers over there and it is hard to guard against. Whether it is trees, wild beasts, ground cracks, etc., it may kill people. Even if it is completely unexpected, huge monsters that have never been seen will slaughter us. In this case, how can the construction speed be faster?"

At the end, his voice had increased a lot, and he really looked a little angry.

Ji Hou came over and patted his shoulder with his hand, pressed him back to his seat, sighed and said, "Don't be angry, listen to Wenyun finish his words."

Wen Yun nodded and continued, "We all understand what you said, but perhaps the high priest has lived in the temple for a long time and knows not much, but he has a high status and is dedicated to serving the gods. By the way, the most important thing this time is that the high priest made clear to the three elders that the instructions to speed up the construction of the road to heaven were the gods who gave him the oracle decree."

"Oracle?" Yin He was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.

In such a huge holy city, although the Presbyterian Church is extremely powerful, the source of all human beliefs is of course the gods in the temple. After the high priest said this, the elders were indeed helpless and could only act according to their words.

Wen Yun seemed to be helpless about this and nodded and said, "Yes, it's an oracle, so you know Elder Ji's difficulties. That is, at that time, the high priest said that since there are all kinds of difficulties in building the road to heaven, let the wasteland come to build the road, they are strong, and... "

He looked at Ji Hou, and seemed to hesitate. Ji Hou waved his hand and said, "Since you want to entrust a big deal, there is nothing to hide from Yin He."

Yin He's heart jumped, and looked at Wen Yun. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Although there was no clear statement, the high priest's meaning in the negotiation that day was actually very clear. The lives of the deserted people are worthless, so don't care, don't have any scruples. Everything is focused on road construction, and even if they are sacrificed... it doesn't matter."

Yin He's face changed and he turned to look at Ji Hou.

Ji Hou shook his head, sighed, walked back to the desk with his hands on his back, and said, "I was in the temple that day. Judging from the meaning of the high priest, it should be that even if all these deserted people die, he would ask us to capture other deserted people, even more, and keep filling in until the road is repaired."

Yin He was speechless and could not say a word for a long time. Ji Hou looked at him and said, "What do you think of this?"

Yin He hesitated for a moment, looked up at the elder Ji, and slowly said, "If you really want to do this, there will be many people who will die."

Ji Hou nodded, but didn't say anything, just looked at Yin He, as if he was still waiting for the words behind him.

Yin He gritted his teeth and said, "I know the danger in the inner ring. If I force myself to accelerate regardless of everything, even if all of these thousand people are dead, they may even have to spend several times more lives."

Ji Yan's face still did not change much, and even looked a little cold, saying, "What? Is it possible to achieve success?"

Yin He's eyes twitched for a moment, then slowly lowered his head, and after a while, he said, "As long as there is no terrifying monster that is completely invincible, it should be able to be cultivated."

"Okay." Ji Hou nodded and sat back on the chair.

※※※

"If so many deserted people and so many lives are really filled on this road, it will be too bad for the peace. Even if we, the human public in the holy city, will be in an uproar." Yin He said to Ji Hou.

"Yes," said Ji Hou, "so let's not let them know."

Yin He smiled bitterly and said, "Do you have to do it?"

Ji Hou's face, which had been calm and calm, suddenly a hint of irritability flashed across his face. He slapped the table with his hand and said with a slight anger: "Of course I don't want to do this kind of destructive thing, who would be willing to do this? But what can I do? This is an oracle, this is the will of the god through the high priest. Do you think I can disobey the will of the god?"

Yin He was speechless.

Ji Hou took a deep breath to calm his emotions, then looked at Yin He and said, "How is it? You know the whole story of this matter now, are you willing to help me do this?"

Yin He was silent for a moment, shook his head and was about to speak, but was suddenly stopped by Ji Hou, saying, "This matter is difficult and dangerous. Of course, I will not let you do it in vain. As long as you are willing to help me, I will promise to help you regain the Yin family. If I read correctly, your father Yin Mingyang has completely given up on you now and will pass the family business to your half-brother?"

Yin He was stunned and didn't say anything for a moment.

Ji Hou said again: "You have also grown up in our aristocratic circle since childhood. I believe you have seen a lot of this situation. If you can't be the head of the family and the person in charge of the family business, it's okay if the head of the family is his own brother. If you are from the other branches, I don't need to say how unlucky you will be, right?"

He smiled coldly, his eyes sharp, as if they could penetrate people's hearts, and said, "To be honest, even if you want to be a little noble and don't care about these family businesses, what if you have descendants in the future? They could have lived a life of being a street manager like you did before, or would you risk your life to join the army and fight and patrol for the sake of your future?"

Yin He's face changed, and he slowly clenched his hands. After a while, he suddenly asked, "Elder Ji, why do you choose me?"

Ji Hou nodded, stretched out two fingers and said, "First, you have done a good job in these days, acted decisively, calmly and stoicly, and are a good material. I think you are a material that can be made; Second, you finally stood on my side, and I believe you. I must leave such a big thing to people whom I can trust, but among the people I can use, no one has ever been to the inner ring except you."

Yin He smiled bitterly and said, "It should be that all the children of aristocratic families would not be willing to go to such places."

Ji Hou said lightly: "In addition to these two reasons, there is another most important thing, that Honglian believes in you."

Yin He was stunned and heard Ji Hou say, "One of my children, now it seems that only Honglian is outstanding in talent and can become a great person in the future. But now it seems that she is highly valued by the high priest, and she is afraid that she will take over the position of the high priest in the future. At that time, she should need some helpers who work for her in the secular world, and such a person must also be able to gain her trust. I think you are the best candidate."

Yin He had heard Ji Honglian say that he might have very little time to come out after entering the temple. At this moment, he immediately understood a little. His heart aches for no reason, and he felt a little confused. Then he shook his head and said, "Thank you, elder, but I... I feel that my ability is limited. If Honglian really becomes the high priest, I really have no way to help her."

Ji Hou snorted, with a little resolute expression on his face, and said, "All my other children are not good. If you really can do something, then even if I do my best to help you and let you sit in my position in the future, what's the difficulty?"

Yin He was shocked, stood up, looked at Ji Hou and said in shock: "Elder Ji..."

Ji Hou looked solemn and looked solemn, without any jokes, and just stared at him deeply.
