The moment the three of them woke up, the door that had locked them in was pushed open. Then, a woman in a beast fur coat stepped through the door with a tray in her hands.
The woman's face was painted with strange colored stripes, so it was hard to tell how old she was. One could tell from her eyes that she was very wary of the three of them. Her eyes were pinned on them from the moment she entered the room, all the way until she brought their food that was on the tray to them.
She immediately turned to leave after she had put down the tray. It was as if she did not want to stay even a moment longer.
"Hey, I want to talk to your high priest! I hope that you can pass on my message for me," said Gu Ding suddenly. The woman was taken aback.
"You can speak our language?"
"That's right, so I hope we can talk." Gu Ding was hopeful that they had a chance.
