Chapter Seventy-Nine: Grace's "Confession"
"Let's go there!" said the old priest's voice again.
Flying over the vegetable market, Zhu Tian followed the old priest to a butcher's house. Look down on everything in the courtyard.
I saw a butcher sharpening a long knife, and behind him was a sow to be slaughtered, which was tightly tied to a pillar with a hemp rope.
"I know him! He's the one who caught me in the morning and received the bounty!" Zhu Tian said silently.
The summer sun was blazing, and the butcher was covered in sweat, and I saw him take off his linen clothes, revealing his sturdy bronzed upper body, and then opened his mouth to drink a large bowl of cold water, and strode towards the sow with his knife.
The sow seemed to sense her miserable fate, and screamed, but to no avail, the butcher had sharpened his knife and was about to cut at its neck the next moment.
But the moment did not come, and the sow looked back in horror to find that the terrible butcher had been knocked out by her companions, and was now sitting there with her buttocks clutched......
After a boar crashed into the butcher, he immediately ran to the sow, stood in front of her, and drooped his two big ears to guard against the butcher......
"Hahahaha, kind of interesting. Let's go!' the old priest flew away with Pique again.
Soon, they show up at Peake's house.
I saw Ryder guarding the door of the house, and the heavy dark circles under his eyes indicated that he hadn't slept at all yesterday, and Dolly was by his side, also with a pair of dark circles.
Seeing the anxious appearance of those two guys, Zhu Tian laughed, he didn't pull Pique to run with him when he ran last night, what's the use of being anxious at this time......
"Let's go, let's go to today's destination!" the old priest took Zhu Tian to swim around the sky above the peaceful town, and finally, took him to the castle of the mayor's house.
From above the town, the huge castle sits securely, with a huge garden in the center, like a secret palace in a fairy tale where only a princess can live.
Zhu Tian thought to himself, if Pique experienced this magical experience, he would definitely fly directly to this place, because the Haysjia he had been thinking about for a long time was in the castle.
Soon, Zhu Tian stopped his eyes on the two side-by-side attics in the center of the castle, and he knew that one of the attics lived in Haysjia, and the other loft must have lived in the mayor or the mayor's son.
"Let's go, go down and see, didn't you ask me what I was going to say to you? As the old priest finished speaking, Zhu Tian's vision narrowed sharply, as if he was falling from the sky.
The next moment, they appeared in a room.
Is this through the walls? Straight through the thick walls of the castle?
Zhu Tian glanced around and found that this was a bedroom-like room.
And the two people in the room were not Pisa and his mayor's father?
At this time, Zhu Tian was sure of one thing, that is, the two of them couldn't see themselves!
It seems that he is really out of his body......
"Father, I've just lost my mind! I shouldn't have drunk so much poppy milk. I'm sorry for you! I'm sorry for you!" As soon as Zhu Tian came in, he saw Pisa with tears on his face, and he was constantly apologizing to his father.
"My dear son, when have I ever blamed you!" Mayor Grace hugged his son, his face full of pampering, and comforted him again and again: "It's all gone!
"Father, I just had a horrible dream, I dreamed that you were killed by a timberwolf in front of me!" Pizza's eyes were full of horror, "That's too real! Father, you are in front of me in my dream, I watched you be killed, and I can't protect you, I hate it!"
Grace was stunned when he heard this, a complicated look appeared on his face, and said, "I also had a nightmare yesterday...... Is this retribution?"
"What retribution, Father, have you provoked anyone?"
Grace groaned for a long time before she spoke gloomily.
"Ten years ago, I did do something wrong and killed someone. Since that incident, I have been going to church once a year to confess and pray to the pastor. ”
Ten years ago, killed a man?
Hearing this, the question in Zhu Tian's heart was answered, and what they just said seemed to confirm that thing - the death of Pique's adoptive father was directly related to the mayor!
"Could it be the undead? Is that the undead of that person coming back?" a layer of cold sweat appeared on Pisa's head, and he said in a deep voice: "Father, have you ever felt that someone has been watching us secretly, waiting for an opportunity to kill us all the time. ”
Zhu Tian sneered, and said in his heart, there are indeed people watching you at this time.
Zhu Tian looked at Mayor Grace, and saw that his temples were gray and his eye sockets were deep, as if he was tormented by a nightmare.
At this time, Mayor Grace seemed reluctant to bring up the past anymore, and changed the subject: "Haysjia's father, Baron Hygivi, has sent me a letter saying that he wants to come back in the past few days, as for what day it is, we can't be sure, we must not let Lord Baron know about your visit to Hualiu Street." Moreover, Haysjia's mother, the Baroness, had already been on her way to us a week ago, and it was estimated that she would be able to reach the town of Peace tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Hayser was a simple girl who didn't know where Willow Street was, but Baron and Baroness Hydgwick were by no means fools. ”
At the mention of Hualiu Street, the corners of Pisa's mouth twitched obviously, and then said anxiously: "That...... What should we do?"
Mayor Grace's face was not good-looking, and she exhaled heavily and said, "There will always be a way! Fortunately, Chief Amanda accepted our kindness......
"Zhu Tian, let's go!" At this time, the old priest's voice suddenly sounded.
"Wait! They're getting to the point. ”
'We can't keep it up all the time, and we're going to get hurt over time. The old priest's tone was tired.
Seeing this, Zhu Tian had no choice but to agree: "Then let's go." After he finished speaking, he felt himself fly again, directly towards the ceiling, but without any hindrance, and the next moment appeared directly in the sky, guided by an invisible force, he flew in the direction of the church.
flew until he flew back to the bamboo building, flew to the bedroom, and flew back to his body......
Zhu Tian opened his eyes, moved his fingers, and after making sure that he had really regained control of his body, he looked at the old priest and said, "Is this magic?
After a period of silence, the old priest did not answer him, and Zhu Tian was shocked.
He won't be...... Dead, right?
He reached for his hand under the old priest's nose.
And breathing!
OK!
Zhu Tian exhaled heavily, just now he really thought that the old priest was dead.
Why is it motionless at this time, is the spiritual power still flying outside?
"Reverend, Reverend Theon?" said Peake, who tried to say two more words, and the old priest remained motionless, as if in a deep sleep.
Zhu Tian guessed in his heart that maybe the poppy milk played a role, or maybe he was paralyzed by the mental power just now...... He said before that he ran a hundred miles and ran five hundred miles, and he just used that spiritual power to fly into the sky, and after flying for so long, it should be equivalent to running a hundred miles.
Thinking of this, Zhu Tian didn't bother anymore, and he came to the old priest today and gained a lot of gains, not only confirming that the death of Pique's adoptive father was related to Grace, but also confirming that magic really existed in this world.
Zhu Tian pushed the door and walked out of the bamboo building.
And just after Zhu Tian walked out of the bamboo building, the old priest sighed softly, as if he was regretting something.
In the cage, the parrot, which had been silent for a long time, cried out: "The man is gone!
