Chapter 59: Sweet Preserved Fruit

"Brother Adam!" Lena's voice rang out outside the door.

Adam put down the cat in his hand, the paralyzing curse had been lifted by him, and the small wound had been stitched up, but after all, he was still using the knife on the life force before, and he couldn't do vigorous exercise in a short time.

As soon as the door opened, Lena walked in with a small jar and asked, "Brother Adam, how about we go pick the fruit and make the preserved fruit?"

"You finished the preserved fruit I brought home last time?" Adam squatted down and pinched Lena's face, "And how did you find this jar?"

The monk gave him a lot of preserved fruit, and when he brought it back, he put it in a jar, and gave Lena a little to eat every day, but he did not give her too much, and he kept the jar well.

But he didn't expect the little guy to be able to find what he had hidden, and eat it all in one go.

"Hey, hey, hey. Lena hugged the jar, smirked twice, tried to get by, and then pinched Adam's sleeve again and asked, "Take me to make preserved fruit, Brother Adam, I promise not to steal it again." ”

"Where did you hear that? Didn't the chief monk give you some nuts the other night?" Adam shook his head, picked up the little empty jar, and picked the fruit to make the preserved fruit.

But now the season is not right, and the fruit trees of Loa are also some distance from the southern area, so the so-called preserved fruits are generally only sold in the shops.

Especially the ones given by the monk, they are all considered high-quality products, and it is very difficult to get that kind of preserved fruit.

"I'm done eating. Lena said in a very small voice, as if she was about to bury her head in the jar in Adam's hand.

"You!" Adam rubbed the little girl's head vigorously.

"Tell my brother what you want to eat, but you can't make preserved fruit now. Then tell him little by little how to make the preserved fruit, and why you can't do it now.

"My brother went to buy some for you first, but promised my brother that he wouldn't eat secretly or too much in the future, otherwise he wouldn't buy them for you in the future. Adam looked at the sky outside the window, there was still some time, the shop was not far away, and there should be no problem buying it back.

One of the benefits of working with Doug is that the economic problem is solved.

Adam went out and rejected Crow's offer.

Since Adam was on the right track, he had more and more things to do, more and more to learn, and less and less free time, which is not a good thing.

Adam hadn't slept before midnight these days, either studying or exercising, or practicing meditation.

However, there is a law in the operation of life, and although the meditation method and the horogram are transforming this point with human power, it is better to follow the rules before it is completely successful.

Adam knew that some things could not be done by brutality, but he did have too much foundation to make up for before, so he could only squeeze himself.

Anthony is not here today, he has initially completed his idea, and it is good to spend part of his time in daily life.

Walking through the streets he had walked before, chatting with neighbors he hadn't seen for a while, Adam's tense spirit seemed to relax a little.

Soon came to the store, but Adam, who pushed the door in, was immediately attracted by a person.

It was a young man with curly brown hair, his eyes fixed on the preserved fruit in the cupboard, as if remembering something.

He turned to look at Adam's arrival, his eyes slightly surprised, which made Adam instinctively wary.

But he didn't expect the young man to turn his head with a smile and say to the shopkeeper, "That's it, can you wrap one for me?"

The young man took the preserved fruit in his hand, pinched it and ate a piece, and an irrepressible happiness appeared on his face, as if he was going to be so happy that he would cry in the next moment.

The brown curls ignored Adam and left with the preserved fruit and a smile on his face.

Adam took a portion of the preserved fruit, but when he went back, his mood was completely different.

"Who's that guy? He seems to have some questions. Adam sensed something, and the man was surprised by what he was doing.

"I'm in a state where I'm weighted towards the soul right now, and I can't be seen that I've practiced as a knight, and the other party hasn't used my mental power to probe, so I shouldn't be able to find the abnormality of my mental power. ”

"Then there are only three possibilities. ”

"First, simply because of my looks and charm. ”

"Second, they have seen my profile elsewhere or met me from other sources, but they didn't expect me to be here. ”

"Third, the side effects of the Tears of God ritual. ”

Either way, it doesn't seem to be friendly enough for Adam.

After Adam returned to Boku's house and fed Lena a few preserved fruits, Adam went back to his room to check on the cat.

"Wait......" Adam hurriedly went downstairs, found Crow, asked him to go on a run for him, and asked Doug for some information about the church.

"Hopefully I'm thinking too much. Adam, having done all this, returned upstairs and began his training as a knight and sorcerer once again.

When Kim arrived, he seemed to observe some of Adam's states and slowed down his teaching slightly, only correcting some problems in Adam's practice.

"Mansra seems to have had a lot of big business lately, and today he came to me to discuss the defense work. After Adam had finished his practice, Kim said, "If you want to persecute him, you can do this." ”

"It's just that you have to be careful, don't affect your teacher and me, my funds have been supported by this work all these years. Kim looked out the window, as if thinking about something.

"Can't you go less?" Adam looked disdainful, almost every day, Kim had a different perfume smell on his body, sometimes cheap, sometimes expensive, and when he got the money.

"You're too young to understand. Kim smiled and looked at Adam's eyes, a kind of ridicule from the past.

"If you really want to try, you can go to the banshee, I'm sure that as long as you are willing to speak, she will never refuse. ”

Adam shook his head, didn't try to defend anything, but silently planned.

With the current situation of Loya, the xenomorph organization needs to be disintegrated as soon as possible and an elite organization can be established from it, and the others should be abandoned.

"Otherwise, there is a high risk of setting yourself on fire. ”

Adam mentally recalls the information, behavior style, personal value, and trustworthiness of each person in the xenogeneous organization, and then finally forms a score.

This score determines whether these people are later abandoned or selected.

Giving up is not necessarily a bad thing, and being chosen is not necessarily a good thing, Adam thought everything about it, and glanced at the side, Kim didn't know when he had left, and it was estimated that he was going to walk the streets.

Shaking his head, Adam went to bed.

The next morning, Adam went downstairs to meet Crow and got the information he wanted.

"The Sons of Man offered the fruit of autumn ripeness to God, and God tasted it on the first day and marveled at its sweetness. ”

"The Sons of Man still offered the fruit, and God marveled at its fragrance on the second day. ”

"When the Son of Man did not offer fruit, God inquired of the Son of Man on the third day. ”

"The sons of man told God that the fruit would not last long, and that when it rotted, it would be ugly and smelly, and that God would not like it. ”

"God rebuked the Son of Man and made him change his ugliness with sweetness. ”

"The Sons of Man found fine wine, jam, and preserved fruit according to God's commandment. - "The Prophet: The Chronicle of the Son of Man"

Perhaps because of the prophecy, the monks of the church are very fond of foods made from fruits, such as jam and preserved fruits.

In earlier seminaries, most of the children were sent to the seminary, and most of the orphans were included in the annex.

Because of resource issues, the only snacks those children can eat are preserved fruits.

And because of some management system problems at that time, the lives of those children were not too good, and the sweet preserved fruit could be said to be the only expectation of most children at that time.

In the biography of a monk, it is even described that faith and preserved fruit were the last two pillars of his life at that time.

The reform aristocracy of the seminary has made great efforts, but if the previous seminary is running well, even if the nobles of the Holy Tianyin Kingdom pounce on it, they may not be able to promote the reform of the seminary.

"Could that be a monk?" Adam frowned, vaguely guessing, then turned to Crowe and said, "Let's go to the church in the South End today." ”
