Chapter 57: Bless the Holy Maiden
After a calm night, early the next morning, the two packed up their things and set off with the morning light, and the feelings of going through the hardships together often warmed up very quickly, and the two people who had a good impression of each other talked and laughed all the way back, and the forest seemed to have calmed down, and they did not encounter any obstacles along the way, until they approached the front line where the army was stationed, and when they could see the figure clearly, Mi Lu frowned and stopped, and the priest sister Lu Lu was stunned for a moment and turned her head, "What's wrong?" ”
Milou squinted his eyes and shook his head, motioning for her not to speak, and the two of them silently hid behind the trees and watched. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Compared with before he left, the number of soldiers stationed on the side of the wall was obviously at least doubled, the heavily armed warriors looked solemn as if facing a great enemy, the bright and cold armor glowed with copper, and an inexplicable tense atmosphere permeated the garrison army, making people speculate and uneasy.
Mi Lu thought for a moment and asked in a low voice, "The situation is unknown now, don't you go back to the church after you go in, wait until we go to my teacher to inquire about the situation, and then think about it." ”
Pastor Lu Lu~ nodded, "If it's Elder Neo, it must be fine." ”
After making up their minds, the two looked at each other, and entered the foot of the cast wall together, and after a brief check at the door, Milou took Lu Lu back to the temporary residence of Old Man Neo on the path. The location of this defensive line was actually some distance from the rear barracks, and the two of them bypassed the main road to avoid the others, and finally reached the rear barracks after spending some effort.
Knocking on Teacher Neo's cabin, Neo was writing on the table by the window, the light spread on the parchment, and he didn't raise his head, "I'm back, how is the experience?" ”
"Teacher, the training is going well, and the task you gave me has been completed. But......" Milou paused, "has something happened lately?" ”|
"Oh? Why do you ask? ”
"No...... I just found that there seemed to be more troops stationed in the front line of defense, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and I was a little unaccustomed, so I asked. ”
"Huh...... It's normal, because the activities of monsters are gradually decreasing, so recently, the noble council has been exploring outside the forest a lot, and sent out a lot of reconnaissance teams, in order to prevent the monsters from counterattacking, it is normal to strengthen the defense......" Neo put down the quill in his hand, raised his head, and suddenly found the priest Lu Lu standing behind, "Huh? It's ......"
Pastor Lu Lu stepped forward, walked forward with one hand on his chest, and introduced himself, "Hello, Elder Neo, I am Pastor Lu Lu of the church, and it is an honor to meet you. ”
"Lu Lu had a little accident in the forest, and then I met her, so I helped a little, because I didn't worry that she was alone in the forest, so we came back together......" Milu explained, and suddenly hesitated, "But ......"
Old man Neo raised an eyebrow and walked over from the wooden table, his eyes looking at him.
Mi Lu hesitated for a long time before he could speak, and Lu Lu preemptively said, "Elder Neo is an upright person, although he is in the position of the Secret Elder of Magic, he has always been outside the left and right factions, and he is still very convinced of the Elder's personality Lu Lu. In fact, this incident was caused by the Secret Society of Magic. ”
Lu Lu stood quietly in front of Elder Neo, and the story of the incident was told as it was, without saying anything or being humble and coherent, and kept saying that in the end, she sent out a summary, "The church was attacked by the magic secret society, and more than a dozen lives did not die on the monsters, but were buried in the hands of the humans themselves, this matter must be put on the bright side!" ”
After saying that, the cabin was quiet for a moment, Elder Neo frowned, paced back and forth twice, and then stopped and glanced back and forth at the two of them, "Milu...... You don't get involved in partisanship, you're doing a good job. I'll take care of the rest of the matter, you go out first, I still have something to ask her. ”
"But......" Milu was stared at by Neo's eyes, obediently closed his mouth, glanced at Lu Lu, and finally turned around and walked out the door, a creak sounded, and the wooden door closed.
The room re-entered the silence, and Neo's eyes became condensed, "Your name is Lulu?" If I'm not mistaken, you're one of the three holy daughters of the Church. ”
Lu Lu was not surprised by Elder Neo's words, she smiled and nodded, her lips and teeth opened, "Elder is right, I am one of the blessed saints. ”
"So you were sent out by the church...... Neo's words were not finished, but he just looked at the weak pastor in front of him, waiting for an answer.
Lu Lu nodded slowly.
A moment later, a complicated sigh was heard from inside the room......
*****************************************************
Lin Yao didn't have much time, after Mi Lu went back into the big black book at night, he went back into the big black book and returned to the bookstore, after the time flow rate of the two planes stabilized at one to five, Lin Yao was already able to accurately grasp the time of return, he picked up his mobile phone and looked at it, there was a difference of four or five hours from the time he left, and after spending more than twenty hours in the other world, it was now noon on the day of departure, and as soon as the meal time came, the stomach began to rebel.
After finding a restaurant to solve the lunch problem, Lin Yao returned to the room in a daze and threw himself on the bed~, An An and Beta, the two beautiful girls should still be playing outside, and they can't come back for a while.
He didn't wake up until the evening, and when he looked up, it was already very dark outside the window, and the room was dark. Picked up the phone, a series of pictures and text messages were transmitted, which were full of selfies of An An and Beta, playgrounds, movie theaters, and game rooms. Lin Yao flipped through it from beginning to end, smiled knowingly, threw the phone aside, and continued to look at the ceiling blankly.
Usually at this time, Lin Yao always thinks of a lot of things, from his childhood when he was a child to everything he has encountered in recent times, laughter and pain are rolling in his mind, and the memories of the past come like a shower, agitating, circulating, staggering, and finally stopping, everything is frozen on the day he got up from the river.
The deepest dark scenes appeared in his mind again and again, and even though he tried to calm down with great restraint, the aftertaste of death was still like a restless demon, rolling over his head, laughing, toying, teasing, and finally falling softly, whispering in his ear -
"It's your demons, and now the time has come......"
Yes, the time has come.
Fu Diling's state was no longer the last obstacle, and the payment of five hundred points per hour was enough for him to complete a series of things; The military's previous investigation has also re-entered the background, and it is impossible for him to be contacted after so long; The Dow Group was in a hurry to whitewash itself like a snake being beaten, and its hands and feet did not dare to touch it outward. It seems that all the conditions are ripe, just waiting for Lin Yao to have a final behind-the-scenes trial.
No one would notice this, that there was a lurking person here, who had really died once.
