Chapter 44: Pei Cheng
Malone went on to explain, "The funeral is achieved through the Holy Light, so it can only work on the people of the Temple.
And it requires the members of the hundred temples to pray at the same time, and it must be presided over by someone at the level of a bishop himself. ”
"This is also a very sacred ritual in the temple, I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes!"
……
The ceremony was soon over, and the people didn't want to go on the road now, so they set up camp not far from the battlefield.
Prepare to stay here for one night, and naturally it will not be Marlon's turn to keep a vigil or something.
Everyone was tired of the day, and after eating, they all fell asleep.
The next day, when the others were still asleep, Malone woke up first.
Yesterday's battle didn't bring him much exhaustion! After a good night's sleep, everything was recovered.
The recovery ability is too strong, I can't sleep lazily, think about the cold and slumber in the winter in my previous life, I don't want to get up, and now I can't feel it anymore, and I feel a little embarrassed in my heart!
Get up and take care of yourself, move your hands and feet, and since you can't sleep, then train.
Walking to no one's place, measuring the distance, and not disturbing others, Malone began to train in the daily columns.
I originally wanted to wake up John and the others, thinking that they didn't have their own recovery power, and they had just experienced a big battle, so it was better to let them rest for a while.
……
At the urging of the bishop, it only took a few days for the group to see the tall walls of the royal capital Peicheng from a distance.
At this time, it was the month of March of Kingdom 717.
As the royal capital, the first of the four main cities, the city wall of Peicheng is more than ten meters high, which is as high as five or six stories in the previous life.
Originally, there were five main cities, but the main city of Beijun was destroyed in the barbarian incident more than thirty years ago.
The temple was full of people, moving slowly with the flow of people.
The city gate was crowded with merchants, travelers from all over the kingdom.
Entering the city, the Bishop of Nordington said goodbye: "The temple still has urgent matters to deal with, and the situation is unclear now, so let's separate."
Don't worry, I'll arrange it, and if I ...... and I have an accident, I'll hand it over to Illya to deal with......"
"Farewell!"
"Farewell ......"
The people of the temple were gone, and they were in a hurry to ......, along with the horses that Marlon was riding.
"It's stingy!" Malf whispered a disgruntled curse, but no one paid attention.
With the separation from the temple personnel, Ma Long and his party returned to the situation of only four people.
"Marlon...... what do we do now?" John asked.
The other two also turned their gazes, they were getting more and more accustomed to following Ma Long's ideas.
This is a change in strength and identity, and a change caused by nature.
Facing the eyes of the three of them, Ma Long said calmly: "Let's find a place to live first, take a good rest today, early tomorrow morning, you are still the same, go and inquire about the news, whether it is useful or not, it will be useful to us who are now black-eyed."
I'll go to the Noble Council tomorrow to see how ...... going," as he spoke, Malone looked around, and soon found his target, a good-looking inn, and said, "Let's go, let's stay and talk about ...... first."
The three of them did not object, and a group of four walked in with packages on their backs.
Malone's eye sightseeing is not bad, the interior of the hotel is good, and the cleaning is also very clean.
There is a restaurant right next door for guests to eat.
The four of them asked for four rooms, and Ma Long wanted to practice magic at night, and it was really not very convenient to share one room with others.
Thinking that the safety environment of the royal capital should not be bad, and he is not short of money now, he should simply have one room for one person.
Malf was adamantly disagreeable at first, not because he was afraid of danger, and he was not timid to that extent, but he was worried about money.
The hotel in the royal capital is much more expensive than Los Angeles, and he has automatically entered the role of Marlon Territory, the treasurer or the leader of the lord's caravan.
Watching the silver coin slip out of his hand, his face was uglier than that of his dead father.
"Why didn't you find out that you were still a money junkie?" John scoffed.
…………
It was raining lightly in the sky, and Malone walked out of the hotel door with an umbrella.
It started to rain in the middle of the night, and it didn't stop at dawn.
There are few pedestrians on the road, and occasionally one is in a hurry, which makes it difficult for Malone to ask for directions.
Finally came to the gate of the council, put away the umbrella, and Marlon walked in.
The hall was spacious, but there weren't many people, only a few who were supposed to be the staff chatting.
Seeing Ma Long coming in, they all stopped talking, and one of them got up and said, "Sir...... this is the Council of Nobles, is there anything I can help with?" ”
Marlon looked at a few people before saying, "Is Mr. Razor here?" I'm Marlon, House. Bill introduced it. ”
Everyone looked at a big man, who stood up and said, "I'm ......, let's go, let's talk in the room." He made a gesture of please.
Marlon followed Lei Ze into a room at the back of the hall, he invited Marlon to sit down and said, "I also know a little bit about your situation from Bill, so I'm prepared, now it's up to you to see what you want?" ”
Ma Long thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid of trouble, so I can minimize the number of procedures and be fast." ”
"Nothing else?" Razor looked a little disappointed, feeling that this business was too small!
Ma Long asked with some curiosity: "What, what other business do you have here?" ”
Razor was proud, straightened his back and said: "That's natural, our business is all over the aristocratic system, everything that involves the parliament, we have our business, even if it doesn't involve the parliament, we have a certain amount of influence......"
"For example?" Malone asked.
“…… Have you thought about the territory you need in advance, we can also coordinate in this regard, even if you have a lord, we can help communicate, of course, the premise is that you have enough gold......"
Ma Long was really shocked, and he didn't know if what he said was true, if it was false, it was okay to say, it was just bragging by the staff.
If it's true, then this organization is really a behemoth, and the cow is big!
Choosing a territory is a matter for the king to decide!
The forces that can influence the king are all unprovoked existence for the current Ma Long.
Don't look at the fact that he was still killing all sides a few days ago, killing more than a dozen knights by himself, and his strength is strong.
So, what if there are twenty, or even thirty?
And it's not just knights in this world.
Thinking of this, Ma Long only took a moment, quickly came back to his senses, didn't answer, and said: "Let's do it first, how long will it take for my affairs to be done?" ”
Lei Ze was a little dissatisfied with his sales failure, but his strong business ability still made him restrain his emotions and replied: "If you are the fastest, you can come to the heraldic producer tomorrow to make the registration coat of arms, and after three days, you can participate in the ceremonial training and other paperwork ......."
But the fee is not cheap, we have to change the ranking of many people, three gold coins......"
