Start with a photographic memory and build a memory palace

Chapter 138 The Intuition of the Beast

……

Just after Ashina Simo and Cheng Chumo led everyone out of the palace.

Wu Wen sat in Jie Li's original position, and then said softly: "Come out!"

Just as he finished speaking, an old man dressed as a priest, wearing a long robe and holding a wooden cane, slowly appeared from the back.

Behind him, there was a sturdy man wearing animal skins, half naked, and with a wolf head tattoo.

"Who are you?" Wu Wen asked, staring at the old man.

"Turkic priests," the old man replied.

"It seems that you are not an ordinary person. Why didn't you show up when I killed Jie Li just now?" Wu Wen continued to ask.

The priest took a few steps forward with his cane in hand and said, "Because this is a change of royal power, as a priest, I cannot interfere."

"Then why do you show up again now?" Wu Wen asked with a smile.

The priest glared and said in a deep voice: "I am here to advise you to leave this place immediately, otherwise..."

"What else?" Wu Wen stood up and stared at the high priest.

"Tang people, don't take advantage of your strength to do whatever you want. There are some things that you cannot touch." The priest warned again.

“Then I really want to try it.”

Wu Wen walked forward and stood opposite the high priest.

The priest took a half step back and suddenly swung the cane in his hand, hitting Wu Wen in the chest.

Wu Wen reached out and grabbed the top of the crutch, feeling the force on it, and said contemptuously: "That's it?"

He swung the cane with force, snatched it in an instant, and then hit it horizontally.

At this time, the sturdy man following the high priest finally took action, grabbed the crutch that was whipping him, and started wrestling with Wu Wen.

"Not bad power!"

Wu Wen felt the other party's strength that far exceeded that of ordinary people, and exclaimed in admiration softly.

Then, electricity surged in his spine, and stronger power burst out from his hands. He dragged the other person towards himself and kicked him out.

With a thud, the sturdy man was kicked out by Wu Wen and fell heavily to the ground.

However, after this man lay on the ground, he actually began to laugh ferociously.

Afterwards, he knelt on the ground, mumbling something.

Seeing this, Wu Wen immediately rushed forward and kicked out with a whip kick again.

But the opponent actually got down on all fours, jumped up like a wild beast, and then roared and pounced on Wu Wen.

Spread the strike, tap the beak, and dance in a whirlwind.

Wu Wen used Crane Eight Strikes continuously.

But unexpectedly, the other party dodged them easily.

At this moment, this man is really like a ferocious beast. Not only does he have a strong and flexible body, he also has the same keen intuition as a ferocious beast.

Wu Wen looked solemnly at the man on all fours in front of him.

Perhaps, the person in front of him could no longer be called a human being, because neither his body shape nor his expression looked like a human being at all.

Seeing the man breathing at him with a ferocious face, Wu Wen put his hands behind his back and slowly drew out the dagger he carried with him.

Perhaps sensing the danger, the sturdy man did not dare to attack. Instead, he circled around Wu Wen, looking for a flaw.

Wu Wen's eyes were sharp. He stretched out his hand and touched the sword, then rushed forward.

In a flash of lightning, the dagger in his hand shot out like a streak of silver light, going straight to the strong man's vital point.

The sturdy man was agile and jumped and dodged, trying to avoid Wu Wen's attack.

At this moment, Wu Wen suddenly loosened his grip on the sword, but the dagger floated an inch away from his palm, as if being pulled by an invisible force. Then, the dagger stabbed the sturdy man's abdomen at a strange angle.

A hint of surprise flashed in the sturdy man's eyes, and he twisted his body forcefully in mid-air, trying to avoid the fatal blow.

However, at the moment his body turned over, a silver whip suddenly came out from Wu Wen's waist and hit him hard on the back.

Suddenly, blood gushed out and the strong man's body stiffened with pain.

At this moment, the sword in Wu Wen's hand rotated and changed its angle again, and inserted straight into the back of the strong man.

With a scream, the strong man's body fell weakly to the ground.

Wu Wen raised his sword and turned around.

Look at the priest.

However, the priest did not show any panic on his face at this moment, but rather looked quite calm.

Wu Wen walked up to the priest, stuck the short blade into the ground, then held the priest's head with both hands, staring into his eyes.

Just as he was about to perform hypnosis.

But the priest's eyes suddenly became dim and he lost his spirit in an instant.

Seeing this, Wu Wen was shocked.

This man actually committed suicide!
And it's on a spiritual level, ending one's own life.

Wu Wen stood there in a daze, looking at the lifeless body of the priest, his heart filled with shock.

He had never seen anyone who could end his life solely through the power of the spirit without harming his physical body.

What kind of spiritual state is this?
at this time.

Ashina Simo walked in from outside.

When he saw the two bodies on the ground, especially the priest's body, he was so shocked that he stood still, his eyes full of surprise and panic.

"The priest is dead, it's all over." Ashina Simo said in a lost voice.

Wu Wen glanced at him calmly and said, "Why are you panicking? He's just a priest."

After hearing this, Ashina Simo quickly explained: "On the grassland, priests are sacred and inviolable. They are the messengers of Changshengtian. In the tribe, even the Khan cannot disobey the priests, otherwise it would be against Changshengtian."

"Now that the priest is dead, I will definitely not be able to be the Khan, and I will be hunted down by the 18 Turkic tribes."

Ashina Simo became more and more excited as he spoke, with obvious panic and fear in his voice.

Wu Wen remained calm and said, "Since the consequences are so serious, why don't you just keep it a secret?"

"Yep!"

Ashina Simo reacted immediately. He looked around, confirmed that there was no one else, and then began to deal with the body quickly.

First, tear out two pieces of cloth from the palace and wrap the two bodies.

Then, he looked up at Wu Wen and asked, "What should I do if someone asks about it?"

Wu Wen pondered for a moment and said, "If you can delay it, delay it. If you can't delay it, find someone to impersonate him. After a long time, just find a random reason and say he left."

"As long as you don't tell us, who will know whether the priest is dead or killed by you?" Wu Wen added.

Hearing this, Ashina Simo's eyes widened in disbelief. He thought to himself: It was you who killed him, how can you put the blame on me?
However, he did not dare to refute Wu Wen because he was really afraid that Wu Wen would kill him as well.

At this time, Wu Wen suddenly asked, "Where is the priest's residence?"

Ashina Simo replied: "It is at the sacrificial site to the north of the palace."

"You deal with the body, I'll go take a look."

Having said that, Wu Wen turned and left, leaving Ashina Simo looking at the priest's body helplessly, his heart filled with helplessness and fear.
