Chapter 25: The Old Man's Philosophy (4000 words)
Although it was already dark, it was not even time for dinner, so the garden was bustling.
Several bonfires were lit, and a group of people gathered around them, watching the two wrestle in the mud and sand in the middle.
I saw two people with their upper bodies bare, revealing their toned bodies, their bronzed skin shining with metallic luster in the firelight.
And one of them, with a white beard and long white hair, and a weathered face, is not who the dean Olier is.
This old man is getting older and stronger at the moment, and because he doesn't like to beat you very much, his white beard and white hair are entangled and dragged to his chest, but a pair of blue eyes are bright, and he is tall, and his muscles are bulging, like a bison.
Although he is old, because of the blessing of light, not only has his strength, speed and endurance not decreased, but because of the condensation of time, he looks stronger than the boys, coupled with his superb skills, compared to wrestling, he can even unceremoniously say that everyone present is rubbish.
Directly the young man who was like a calf was in the hands of the old man, and he was allowed to knead and flatten it, and he was thrown again and again, and the young man fell backwards and turns, unable to distinguish the direction, very pitiful.
Wrestling, this is the old man's favorite evening activity, and it is known as teaching.
The old man was happy to fall, and the young man was sad and angry in his heart, and he screamed, but he was sent by the cunning old man's hand and hooked by his feet, and then the young man was thrown to the ground, and a burst of mud and sand flew.
The young man lay on the ground, feeling only that his bones were protesting, and he refused to get up.
The people around him gloated, and the old man looked excited, and shouted loudly: "Come on, who else?" ”
The sound of schadenfreude disappeared suddenly, and everyone was like quails, keeping their heads down and not making a sound.
When the old man saw this situation, he immediately scolded: "Damn, you have raised a group of cowards." ”
"Dean, dean, oops, let go, let ......"
The Great Elder finally squeezed in and said to the old man, "There is something, there is something important. ”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as a monk of the Demon Hunting Monastery, what they needed to hunt monsters for their cultivation was strong combat ability, so they also liked the extracurricular activity of wrestling, but it didn't mean that they liked to find abuse.
"Oh, what's the matter? Could it be that some guy is knocking on the door? As he spoke, the dean looked eager to try.
The other monks began to rejoice, and were not gearing up, but were ready to make a big move.
"No, it's not, it's the Alflis missionaries who have returned."
"Oh, it's that little rabbit, he's finally willing to come back."
The old man was happy, and so were the other monks, and at last they no longer had to suffer from this old thing.
In the Demon Hunting Monastery, only Alfries can make this old man happy, which is why Alflis can become the first heir of the abbot.
It's not that Alfries is strong, but that he can carry it, and he won't cry pain, and he is not as cunning as other monks, and the old man said that it was teaching, and he thought it was teaching, so even if he was thrown miserably, as long as the old man didn't stop, he didn't stop, so the old man was very satisfied.
"What about the Alfrisians!" The old man hurriedly asked, it was time for him to have itchy hands, and Alflis came back just in time.
"He's in the living room." The Great Elder wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "He has returned with a guest, and he is now accompanying that guest." ”
The old man was a little puzzled as to what guest he needed to be accompanied by Alfries, so he asked with interest, "Who is that guest?" ”
The Great Elder looked left and right, looking embarrassed.
The old man is about the same age as the Great Elder, and the two have worked together for so long, the old man naturally knows what the Great Elder means, and said dissatisfiedly: "You are still like this, and you haven't changed for so many years." ”
The Great Elder muttered dissatisfiedly, "It's not because of you that I've become like this. ”
The old man laughed, followed the great elder to the living room, and halfway, when there was no one on the left and right, he came up and asked with a smile, "Who is that guest?" ”
The Great Elder whispered, "Angela." ”
The old man looked puzzled: "Who?" ”
The Great Elder said helplessly, "The one who turned Chaotic Stone City into flat ground." ”
The old man slapped his head: "Oh, what kind of witch who destroyed the city." ”
The Great Elder couldn't help but shake his head and reminded, "City Destroying Witch." ”
The old man nodded again and again, and couldn't help but have his eyes shining: "She must be very capable of fighting." ”
Saying that, he was a little gearing up, Angela is an evil guy, he has to adjust his state well, and when the time comes, he can have a good fight and eliminate harm for the people.
The Great Elder's cold hair stood up: "My lord, don't do it here, otherwise the belongings we have built in the past ten years will be all over." What's more, they also saved Alfries, anyway, they were guests who came with good intentions. ”
"That's it!"
The old man was a little embarrassed, and muttered dissatisfiedly.
The Great Elder hurriedly added, "Don't mess around. ”
The old man nodded nonchalantly: "I do things, don't worry." ”
The Great Elder kept his mouth shut, it's because of you that I'm not at ease!
In his opinion, Angela is a nuisance.
Not cooperating, angering Angela, is to add a formidable enemy.
Cooperation, it does add a group of enemies, headache! Headache!
However, there is an unreliable dean above me, and the situation is even more complicated, so I can only hope that the impact will be as small as possible.
The old man's mind was very simple, he originally wanted to fight Angela directly at the beginning, but after all, he saved himself Alfris, so he was embarrassed to do it.
Anyway, they are not righteous guys, they can only be said to have a clear conscience.
The reason why they hunt those dark creatures everywhere is first of all because they are in such a nature, they like the feeling of hunting powerful creatures, plus the dark creatures are their enemies, and the two sides are not dead from the beginning.
The second is to collect faith, save others, and pull others out of the dark mire, which is undoubtedly the best way to collect faith, simple, crude and effective.
If Angela killed the believers of the Demon Hunting Monastery, it would definitely be endless, and as for the others, they saw it at the time and took care of it, and after that, they were not in the mood to crusade against those innocent people who killed innocents indiscriminately.
If Angela destroyed Chaos Stone City at that time, they would still take care of it, but now, Angela is obviously past the deadline, and they don't have time to pursue this.
Therefore, if you want to do it, it seems that you have to find a reason to learn from each other.
The old man's honest face showed a happy smile, and the essence in his eyes flashed.
By candlelight, Angela and Alfries each finished a slice of bread.
The bread here is not so bad, although it is still so hard, but there are no sawdust or anything like that.
The servant who had come in to clean up the dishes looked at Angela in amazement, and was not surprised that Alfries could eat a portion of bread with water, although he could not do it himself, but in this convent he could see much more.
But he didn't expect that this very beautiful woman could also do it, looking at the clean dinner plate, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Sure enough, are the stomachs of these big people made of iron?" ”
When the servant went out, he bumped into the dean and the great elder head-on, and hurriedly stood on the side of the road, waiting for them to pass, and then gently closed the door.
"You're Angela."
The old man looked Angela up and down, and then turned around and said to the great elder dissatisfied: "Old thing, are you lying to me, this is obviously a delicate little girl." ”
The Great Elder trembled with anger: "Dean, he was brought back by the Alflis missionary. ”
"You're Dean Olier!" Angela suddenly spoke, interrupting the conversation between the old man and the great elder.
The old man turned his head and nodded, "I am, little girl, are you Angela?" ”
Angela nodded seriously: "I am." ”
The old man shook his head: "I don't want to." ”
Angela thought this old man was funny, and she didn't get angry, so she asked, "Then what do you think Angela should be." ”
The old man said as a matter of course on his body: "At least the arms must be so thick, the waist must be so thick, and they will be taller than me, stronger than the bison, their hair will be fluttering, and their faces will be full of murderous energy." ”
Angela was speechless, and then said, "But I'm really Angela." ”
"I don't believe it." The old man said with a childish face.
Angela can now see that the old man is clearly cheating, combined with the information of her previous life, she knows that this old man has amazing melee ability, and he is also very belligerent.
It's just that, because of the teachings, in the face of the guests, I have to change from fighting to wrestling philosophy.
knew in her heart, but Angela also raised some interest, and did not expose the old man, and followed his words: "Then how can you believe it." ”
"Unless, you have a wrestle with me."
Burst!
Alfries, who was drinking water on the side, squirted out a mouthful of water and looked at the old man in disbelief.
The Great Elder also looked terrified, and looked at the old man as if to say: Come and see the pervert!
Although Angela is a big devil, her image at the moment is a beautiful little girl.
You're a big guy who's embarrassed to wrestle with a little girl?
Where is this want to wrestle, it is clearly to take advantage.
Moreover, even if Angela is a big demon king, her profession is also a witch.
You're a monk who specializes in combat, and you're embarrassed to play hand-to-hand combat with a witch? Moreover, it is also a wrestling that urgently needs strength.
But something that shocked them even more was because Angela said, "Okay! ”
I agreed, and she actually agreed.
The early strategy of the Demon Hunting Monastery, what should I do if I want to quickly brush up my goodwill, let's have a philosophy with the dean! If one is not enough, then another one.
"Alright, let's go!"
The old man tugged at Angela's sleeve and shouted excitedly, but Angela smiled and said, "Don't be busy, you won't want me to wrestle like this!" ”
The old man looked at Angela, the cloak on the outside and the robe on the inside, it was indeed not suitable for wrestling.
So, he hurriedly shouted, "Alfris, go to the warehouse and get a piece of clothing." ”
Angela also got up, and she was also going to change her clothes, but when she picked up the wolf's tooth magic wand, the old man's eyes lit up and he laughed: "I'm starting to look forward to it more and more." ”
The Great Elder's eyes are about to bulge out, this thing is a magic wand? You're sure it's a magic wand, not a mace!
Only then did he realize that it was no wonder that Angela dared to agree to come down, and by looking at her magic wand, he could know what her usual fighting style was.
There are still a few friars in the monastery, and the cloak of the monastery itself is suitable for fighting and pretending, and it is also suitable for long-distance travel, especially if the funds are sufficient, and the low-key luxury of the costume itself is even higher, which is very suitable for Angela's aesthetics.
The monk's uniform of the Demon Hunter Monastery is unisex, with a black shirt inside, a layer of leather armor, slim trousers, and light leather boots, and a knee-length black trench coat on the outside, and a shawl on the trench coat, with silver ornaments on it, which looks a little solemn.
He wore a special scarf around his neck to cover his mouth and nose and to shield himself from soot and poisonous gases.
Angela changed into such a set, and the whole person's temperament immediately changed, from the original mystery to heroic posture, especially Angela's long black hair and black trench coat especially matched, and seemed to be integrated.
However, when Angela mentions her wolf-tooth magic wand, the style of the painting changes abruptly, like a gentleman carrying a cigar and a Gatling, which looks very weird.
At this moment, there was a commotion in the courtyard.
This group of monks practiced by war, and they were already energetic, and because they had nothing to do here, and because the days were too short and the time for training was not enough, they often made a fuss in the middle of the night, and they would go back to sleep and recuperate their spirits because of the energy consumption.
The dean and other management are also happy to do this, after all, it is better to wrestle together than to lie in bed decadently, consume a little more energy, and exercise it.
"Get out of the way."
The old man yelled and pushed through the crowd.
When the young monks saw that the old man was back, they hurriedly got out of the way, and their hearts were worried, but after seeing Alflis behind the old man, they suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, thinking that it should be the old man's itchy hands, and they couldn't wait to "teach" Alflis.
However, who is that beautiful young lady, she is really beautiful! Is it new?
As soon as he thought of this, a group of hungry and thirsty men began to howl wolf.
At this moment, the two shirtless monks in the center of the field were inseparable, and their expressions were focused, so they didn't hear the old man's words, and the old man walked to his side, pinched his neck one by one and threw him out.
As soon as the two monks landed, they were furious, and when they raised their heads, they saw the old man, and made a "quack" sound, like a duck pinched by the neck.
"Come, come, I'm already hungry."
The old man was bouncing in the sand in the middle of the field, kicking off his shoes, excited.
The crowd looked at Alflis, wait, why Alflis didn't move, why the pretty young lady came on.
In the midst of everyone's stunned, Angela took off her shoes and socks, and the magic wand in her hand slammed downward, and the stone slab under the sand clicked, and the magic wand was firmly inserted into it.
Everyone's hearts froze, it seems that this young lady is not easy to mess with!
