Chapter 3

Just as Jian Lu was squatting in the corner with his head in his hands, there was a knock on the door.

He quickly stood up, quickly straightened the small folds on his robes, and then trotted to the table made of 10,000-year-old incense wood in a few steps, and busily straightened the crooked "Holy Book" with both hands, and put the feather pen on the parchment back into the ink bottle, and then wiped the ink-stained parchment and received it into the system lattice.

Soon the table was neatly arranged and spotless, and he also sat there, recovering his cold and dust-free face, and said lightly: "Come in." ”

The carved wooden door with magic runes opens, revealing a woman with curly brown hair and blue eyes entering with a cleansed child.

The woman was wearing the beige dress of the maid of the Temple of Light, she was not very beautiful, but the aura on her body was very warm, and she was a kind and considerate person, who was the maid Vena in the Temple of Light who was responsible for taking care of the daily life of the Holy Son.

Jian Lu couldn't help but secretly observe the child, the dirt on his body had been cleaned, and he had changed into a brand new little robe, which looked empty on the thin body, even if he was three years old at this time, it was believable.

His countenance was immature, and there were still some bruises and scars on his face that had been washed away, which should have been added in the last two days, and his complexion was a dull look of malnutrition, and he did not have the ruddy health that a child should have. Judging from his outline, the future of the extinction * oss is still a young child with a bun face at this time, those blue eyes as clear as the clear sky of early summer, calm and quiet, without the innocence and cowardice of a child.

There is only calm and indifference.

Jian Lu couldn't help but be stunned.

He seemed to remember only now that when the child passed through the crowd of the guards of the Knight of Light in the dark street and pounced in front of him in a desperate manner, he showed an extreme calmness, and even if he later offered to bring him back to the Temple of Light, he was very calm, not excited, joyful, or uneasy, not at all like a five-year-old child should be.

Sure enough, living in a place like Dark Street, you can't survive as a real child, so now this child has been raised by the distorted environment of Dark Street? In this way, this can also explain why he would do that kind of thing in the future, so as the guardian paladin of the Temple of Light, he will unexpectedly defect to the camp of the Goddess of Darkness in the future, and help the original heroine bite the Temple of Light, and the death of the Holy Son is also from this person's handwriting.

Now it seems to be just a battered child......

"Your Excellency, if there is anything else you need to command?" Vena asked, leaning in, her voice soft.

Jian Lu nodded at her and said, "Not for the time being, thank you for sending him over." ”

"That's what I'm supposed to do."

Vena said softly, looking at the scrawny Hines with some pity in her eyes, and then at the boy sitting behind the huge fragrant wood desk, wanting to say something, after all, she didn't make a sound, but bowed, and exited the room, closing the door.

After seeing Vena leave, Jian Lu's gaze shifted to the child.

Under Jian Lu's cold gaze, the originally silent child finally couldn't bear it, his thin body moved, and his calm eyes also showed a little gloomy and uneasy, afraid that the person opposite would find out that he was wrong, so he quickly lowered his face, but his small body was still a little trembling, as if he was afraid that this person would send him back to the dark street.

Jian Lu naturally knew what the Dark Street was, and before leaving for the Dark Street today, he had inquired from Chris, the Knight of Light. I heard that many orphans and criminals in the imperial capital were born in the dark street, and it is said that the dark street gathers all the darkness and sins of the Olawen continent, which is a dirty and sinful place that people can't imagine.

So how did he survive on Dark Street as a five-year-old?

Jian Lu, who has an adult mind, doesn't want to overturn a boat with a single shot, especially if he gives the kid hope and sends him back to hell - even though the kid crashed into it himself, he can't do it. However, when this child grows up in the future, will he really bite the Temple of Light as he has predetermined, and then cannon fodder him, the Holy Son, and finally destroy the Olawen Continent?

After a while, Jian Lu let out a long sigh in his heart.

Anyone who sees a five-year-old child who looks like a battered child at this time can't bear to be harsh, even if he doesn't look as innocent as a child. Five-year-olds survive in the Dark Street, innocence only makes them die too quickly, that's the unnecessary thing in the Dark Street.

If he vetoed him now, whether he sent him back to the Dark Street or left to be raised by the other knights of light in the temple, the boy would not end well.

The Temple of Light is not as beautiful and sacred as the world thinks, it also has its dirty evil, the people here have their own plans and positions, and there are many struggles for power, and those sinful things are covered up under the fig leaf of the God of Light. Therefore, the Knight of Light, who was chosen by the Holy Son in public but inexplicably abandoned, will only make people think that he has a problem, and will even be disgusted by blind people, and then be taken advantage of.

Although the Son and the Holy Daughter are subject to the presbytery and the Pope, their status in the minds of the faithful is still supreme. And the Pope and the Presbyterian Council will not be happy to see the Holy Son and Holy Daughter develop their own power in the Temple of Light, and they are even more willing to add fuel to the fire.

Thinking of this, Jian Lu wanted to pinch his eyebrows. The Temple of Light has been established in the Olawen Continent since the Great War of the Gods, and it has existed for too long, so long that it has bred the rotten smell of sin, making it rotten from the roots, which is also one of the reasons why the original heroine can destroy it lightly.

Jian Lu was silent for too long, and the child, who had been calm, finally showed an uneasy look, and there was some resentment in the restlessness. Since this man chose him and took him away from that dark place, why was he so silent when he said goodbye? Obviously he has washed himself cleanly, and obviously he has worked hard to make himself obedient......

"Come here!"

The light voice interrupted the child's resentment, and also calmed his trembling heart. The voice of the Holy Son obviously sounded cold, but there was a kind of softness in the coldness, with a soothing power, which made people feel inexplicably reassured.

Jian Lu watched the child move over carefully, and a slight smile appeared on his indifferent face. When the child came to him, he found that the child was far weaker than he imagined, obviously he was five years old, but he looked like a child about three years old, and the eight-year-old Jian Lu was much taller than him.

A masochistic child...... Even if he knew that he would be one of the murderers of the world in the future, he was really ruthless now!

Complaining in his heart that he was quite a holy father, Jian Lu looked at it, and a soft white light condensed in his hand, covering his bruised left face.

Hines shuddered, thinking that he was going to beat himself like those people in the dark streets, and couldn't help but close his eyes. However, when he felt a very comfortable cooling sensation on his cheeks, the pain gradually subsided on his originally numb face, and he opened his eyes in some surprise, just in time to see that the very good-looking boy in front of him was stretching out his palm, and a soft and bright holy white light emanated from his hand, covering his face.

This is the healing light of the Temple of Light.

The boy was seriously healing the wounds on his face with the precious healing light of the Temple of Light.

This is the Holy Son of the Temple of Light, and I heard that apart from the king of the empire, he is the most honorable person in the Orawen Continent.
