The news of the discovery of a different race did not spread in the three towns of the church, most of the remaining residents of Losric were abandoned when they were in a coma or mentally disordered and stayed in the town without leaving, and now they heard that the three towns were willing to continue to accept them, most of them were taken away, and the church town specially set aside a village for them to live in, named [Baihe Village], because it is close to the white river, and together with Ximu Village, it is attached to Yanan Town.

The rest of the people are left to their own devices, the walls of Lothric have not been repaired, and the fire has almost burned the entire town to rubble, hoping that they will not regret their decision when faced with cannibalistic aliens.

Half a month later, Mufasa married the wife of the original lord, who had died of illness the year before.

In the context of the ongoing construction of the city, the wedding of the mayor and the lord's mother was not extravagant, but in any case, everyone knew that with the support of the church, Mufasa, named mayor, was the actual lord of the territory, although the status of this lord was still below the Pope and the church.

"Your Excellency Karen, the Commander of the Church Town Militia!"

"Your Excellency Sato, Church Town Tribune!"

"Shazu, the mayor of Ahagul!"

The attendants of the roll call loudly announced the identity of the guest outside the door, and all the high-ranking personnel of the three towns of the church gave the church's spokesperson in the world the respect he deserved, and Mufasa was very pleased with this.

"Hahaha! My dear friend Mufasa, I have come to see you! "The short man was Shazu, the mayor of Ahagul, and like Mufasa, he left the town with his own people to build a new village, which later developed into a town.

Because of his short stature, he could only hug Mufasa's thighs, and Mufasa laughed and bent down to hug his old friend.

"Oh, beautiful New Year, you're so beautiful today." The tribune Sato is a close confidant of Mufasa, and together with the militia commander, he manages the non-wartime state, and the more than 300 militiamen in the church town are mainly responsible for guarding the four gates of the town and arranging patrols in peacetime, and now he has to maintain order in the outer city project, so he rushed back to the lord's palace from the outer city.

The new mayor's wife is the original lord's wife, which everyone knows, and marrying the lord's mother does not mean that Mufasa has become a lord, so everyone does not attach much importance to the wedding itself.

After chatting for a while, the roll call attendant finally shouted out the news of the Pope's arrival with excitement, and all the visitors gathered in the Lord's Mansion suddenly fell silent.

As he walked into the hall, Shepard was dressed in plain white civilian clothes, a variation of the papal garment, which was different from ordinary civilian clothes, but was reserved for certain places that were not very serious, but required to express their clerical status.

He smiled and beckoned to the crowd, while all the guests present said in unison: "My lord Tonatiu is with me!" ”

Shepard also said, "My Lord is with me, and the light will shine on you, pious people." ”

After the words fell, he walked to the podium that had been prepared, and smiled gently: "I have come today mainly to preside over the wedding of my lord's devout believers, our excellent town mayor Mr. Mufasa, and the beautiful Lady Molly, the two newlyweds do not know where they are?" ”

Mufasa hurriedly pulled the newlywed lady to Shepard and said respectfully: "Your Excellency, Pope, trouble!" ”

Shepard smiled and shook his head: "All holy legal marriages will be blessed by my lord, please let the pure boys and girls get ready, the ceremony will begin soon." ”

Mufasa, who had already passed the gas in advance, had already arranged everything, nodding his head to indicate that he had no problem, while the other visitors, who did not know the inside story, looked curiously at the scene in front of them, this was a wedding ceremony they had never seen before.

"Have you ever heard of this ritual?"

"Well, no, shouldn't a large group of people eat meat and drink wine, and then the groom carries the bride into the house?"

"You're talking about a commoner's wedding, right? How could the mayor of the town use such a wedding ......"

"Hey, I said, wasn't that how you got married? What else do you want? ”

"Be quiet! I guess it's a newly researched ritual from the church, and it looks pretty good! Go back and ask someone to the temple. ”

"I said, Mr. Tribune, do you want to marry again? Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get into bed by your wife? Hahaha......"

Loud and small voices are clearly heard in Shepard's ears, but it is precisely because of the discussion and curiosity that it can help the church to promote new marriage ceremonies and strengthen the sanctity of marriage in the minds of the people.

So he looked at the crowd with a smile as usual, and said aloud: "Today, under the divine light of my Lord and in the witness of all your distinguished guests, we will celebrate the wedding of Mr. Mufasa and Ms. Jasmine. ”

He first looked at Mufasa: "In the name of my lord Tonatiu, Mr. Mufasa, will you marry this lady beside you, and fulfill her duties as a husband?" ”

Mufasa felt a little excited, although he had been informed of the general process in advance, it was the first time he faced the real link, so he took a deep breath to calm his emotions, and then said in a deep voice: "I am willing." ”

"Good." Shepard smiled and turned his head to look at the woman: "In the name of my lord Tonatityu, Lady Jasmine, are you willing to marry this gentleman beside you, and fulfill the duties of a wife for him?" ”

The wife of the former mayor Samba is a stunner with a petite body but big breasts and hips, and Shepard is also seeing it for the first time, and a trace of pity flashes through his heart, and the thought is pressed as soon as he turns around.

Molly looked at Shepard nervously, took a few deep breaths and couldn't calm down, so she had to reply a little stumblingly: "I, I am also willing." ”

"Good." Shepard held the emblem of the Lord of Light in his hand, and after waiting for the boy and girl to bring a wreath to Mufasa and Molly and put them on each other, he exclaimed, "By divine witness, I declare these two newlyweds married!" Bless you and may my Lord be with you! ”

The crowd was silent until one of the clergy spoke, and then suddenly came to their senses and shouted: "May my Lord (Tonatiu) be with us!" ”

"The light will always shine on you, your Excellency the Pope, thank you." Mufasa, who had asked his newlywed wife to receive the guests, turned his head and thanked Shepard.

"It's nothing, Mufasa, you deserve it." Shepard smiled, "Call the mayors of Yanan and Ahagur, I have something to tell you." ”

Knowing that the real highlight was coming, Mufasa hurriedly summoned Shazu and Peng Man, the current mayor of Yanan Town, and led Shepard and his guards to the ashram.

A team of two Guardian Knights and a Corolla Knight stood guard outside the door, while the rest of the entourage remained outside the hall and the Lord's Palace.

Shepard found a random place to sit down, and the others didn't dare to sit taller than him, so they sat down one after another, and the short Shazu was almost forced to squat on the ground.

Shepard smiled at this, got up and sat down in the lord's place, and now the other mayors could finally get a seat.

When they were all seated, Shepard looked at the three of them and said calmly: "The three of you have all contributed a lot to the stability and development of the three towns, and you have been doing your best to assist in the development of the church. ”

The new mayor of Yanan Town on the side, the chubby Peng Man hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, don't say that, everything is the blessing of my lord Tonatiu, we have only done a little insignificant thing. ”

The other two also said: "Yes, Your Excellency, thanks to the support of you and the Church, everyone can have a peaceful life now." ”

"Yes, if the Church hadn't cleared the threat of the undead, and the Pope himself summoned divine power to destroy the evil man-eating flower, we would still be living in fear!"

Shepard snorted twice and said with relief: "Hey, since everyone thinks so, I'm relieved, but next, what I want to say to the three of them is a matter of great importance, I want the lord to be three and canonized." ”

"Knighthood?" The three of them looked puzzled.

Shepard smiled and explained, "In this case, in order to better manage the townspeople, and to reward you for your efforts, and to set an example for future meritorious people, I intend to divide all townspeople into two classes, nobles and commoners. ”

He roughly explained the difference between the two, and the three of them were all smart people, and their eyes immediately lit up.

Sha Zu hurriedly said: "What does the Pope mean by making the three of us nobles?" ”

Shepard smiled and nodded: "Yes, on the next [Bright Day], I will crown our lord - the lord will be called an earl in the future, and the three will be canonized as barons by the earl." ”

He looked at the three of them: "Your positions remain the same, Baron Shazu, Baihe Village will be your fiefdom, except for the assets and manpower of the church that still belong to the church, all other Baihe Village's people, taxes, security and construction will be arranged by you, the militia of Yanan Town needs to be evacuated from there, from now on, it will be managed by you freely, and all taxes and other taxes will belong to you, as long as you do not do anything that violates the bottom line of the church or evil acts, otherwise no one, including His Excellency the Earl, can interfere with your divine ownership of the territory." All rewards and punishments, the right to dispose of criminals and lords are in your hands, and you are the lord there, the only ruler. ”

He said the same thing to Mufasa and Penman, giving them two villages attached to the town of Church and the town of Ahagul respectively, and finally, he added: "In addition to the earl and the baron, there will also be two titles, Lord and Knight, the knight is the lowest rank of the noble class, and each baron can be canonized as a lord and three knights, but they are only loyal to you, so the fief and the remuneration are also your responsibility, and it has nothing to do with the Earl, nor with the church." ”

"In addition, the canonization ceremony must be carried out in your mansion or in the temple and sanctuary, with the witness of the clergy, and the canonization document must be written, etc., there are many specific requirements, you arrange for the housekeeper or retinue to go to the church to understand clearly, and in the future, you must follow the order, do you understand?"

"Understood, understood." The three of them hurriedly said.

Shepard smiled, got up from his seat, and opened his hands to make a gesture that wanted to hug: "Very good, for the glory of my lord and your own future, I hope that the three barons, Your Excellency, will continue to work hard!" ”
