Chapter 281: Bright Cross Sword (II)
Crystal chandeliers that hang down from the roof and bloom like lotus flowers emit bursts of soft white light, reflecting the whole room in a bright light. Twelve round and smooth, noble and elegant marble columns are scattered in the shape of plum blossoms in the empty room, revealing a simple and solemn beauty.
On the surrounding walls, there are vivid and brightly colored reliefs: there are warriors holding swords and shields with majestic expressions; There are also women who stroke the harp and are elegant and delicate; There are beasts with docile expressions, like kittens, and dense and towering, verdant trees...... These various murals want to show everyone, perhaps it is God's love for all beings, all things have their own value and meaning, equality and harmony are the criteria for maintaining the balance of the natural world.
In the middle of the room, there is a tall statue of Athena, the goddess of war, holding a thick silver spear in her left hand, and a white jade cherub in her right hand, the fine scale gold armor covering her whole body is luxurious and calm, she raises her head slightly, and a pair of bright sapphire eyes stares ahead, her eyes seem to have passed through this temple and fallen into the sky galaxy.
Underneath her, there stood an old man in a silver-white robe, holding a Bible in his hand, bowing his head, praying silently.
Since it's not strange, then I'm still afraid of a ball, let's rub our bodies and squeeze into the room like loaches, show our figures, first adjust our facial muscles, show a mildest kind smile, and walk quickly towards Pope Mirovindi.
Before I could get closer, the old man's ears moved slightly, as if he had sensed my arrival, suddenly raised his head, and said to me calmly, "It's finally here." ”
It's finally here, does he mean he's been waiting for me here? Listening to his words, I muttered in my heart, and my eyes swept his face fiercely: a long silver-white hair was meekly attached to the back of his head, the head was dripping, without a trace of wrinkles, his dark brown eyes were plain and peaceful, and his round face was white and red, and he was no different, no different from ordinary people, how could he be a pope, I really don't understand.
"You've been waiting for me here?" I took a few steps forward and said to the old man with a smile.
"I'm not waiting for you, I'm waiting for the Light Cross Sword." The old man's eyes were fixed on me, his lips slightly open, and he said slowly.
"Waiting for the Light Cross Sword? No, no, no, then I'm afraid you're mistaken, I'm here to find Pope Mirovindi, I only have the Cross of Light on me, how can I have the Cross of Light you said. I shook my hand a little puzzled and said, secretly saying in my heart, is there any other room here, this old man is not the Pope.
"I'm not mistaken, the Cross of Light is the Cross of Light, and I'm the Pope Mirovingi you're looking for." The old man's face was still calm, and he was not moved in the slightest by my words, and continued to reply tepidly.
"Hehe, you are really Pope Mirovindi, that's easy to do. This is the Cross of Light you want, but why didn't I see it as a sword? I took the medal I was carrying with me from my backpack and looked through it in my hand. If this thing is a superb sword, we will definitely embezzle it, but with this little thing, how can there be a shadow of a sword, my heart is full of doubts.
"That's because it hasn't been consecrated yet, so it can only keep it in the form of a medal." When the old man saw my medal, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he replied.
"Can this medal still be consecrated? Dare to be like that jade. I looked up and repeated.
"Yes, it is the opening of the light, which stimulates the light power contained in it." The old man nodded.
"What good can I get by helping you find this Cross of Light?" The bargaining skills of the marketmen, buddy, I also have a little experience, since we already know the true face of the medal in our hands, then we have to ask for the reward, if there is no flower, then we would rather put it on our bodies, than give it to him in vain.
"The benefits? What benefits do you want? The old man listened to my words and said slightly.
"Well, if you have a lot of money, you can give more meaning." I raised my hand and twisted three fingers, and said with a smile on my face.
"You want money?" When the old man saw my action, he said with a little surprise on his face.
"If you don't have any money, it doesn't matter, if you have any equipment, weapons, or skill books that you don't need, you can also pay me." I saw the old wolf of the lamb, and my eyes lit up, and I stared at Pope Mirovindi up and down and said.
"I don't have anything you want." The old man shook his head blankly and said.
Damn, pretending to be with Lao Tzu, I don't want money, I don't want anything, do you tell me that there is a fate. Grandma is a bear, do you want to play with me Dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, rub a baby in vain, I bah, there is no door. As soon as the old man said this, my face suddenly sank, and the Cross of Light that I was playing with in my hand was immediately ready to be put into my backpack, and at the same time said coldly: "Dear Pope, you are not easy to find here, I have gone through a lot of hardships, searched thousands of mountains and rivers, and finally found you, the cost of travel and medicine is very huge, you can't let me work in vain, stick your own book, you are like this, it is too unkind." "We don't have the slightest sense of guilt in our hearts, and we are unashamed to talk nonsense.
"However, I can give you the enlightened Cross of Light." Pope Mirovindi seemed to be deliberately half a beat slower, and as soon as I finished speaking, he spoke.
As soon as I heard this, my face, which had just sunk, was like seeing the sun through the dark clouds, and it suddenly became clear.
I want to die, I didn't expect this old man to be so generous, and he was willing to give me the Light Cross Sword. What level of weapon will this be, well, the goods that can be favored by the Pope, at least a gold-level one, Caila, Caila, my heart suddenly fluttered and beat the festive gongs and drums.
With a face full of joy, we hurriedly stepped forward and said cordially: "Oh, I am a little embarrassed to see what you always said." But if you really can't get any other reward, and insist on giving this to me, then I can only avoid your embarrassment, accept it, come on, you hurry up and help me open the light. "What are you doing, what are you doing, who is talking about me being snobbish, what is this, of course there is a pay, of course, there must be a harvest, and it is a matter of sticking to the old book, a fool is a fool, we don't want to be a modern living Lei Feng."
Looking at the Cross of Light that I stuffed straight over, the old man subconsciously took a few steps back, and instead of reaching out to take it, he raised his hand and pointed at me, and said, "You can just put it on the ground, and this underground is the source of the power of light, which can stimulate the divine power in the medal." ”
Frightened, there is also such a saying, this ordinary underground, is actually the source of the power of light, listening to the old man's words, I was a little puzzled, but still according to his instructions, put the Cross of Light on the flat ground, and then looked up and said with a slight question: "Just let it go like this?" ”
"Of course not, it must be watered with holy water." The old man replied with an old face.
"Where's the holy water?" I hurriedly asked, praying silently in my heart, don't tell me that this is another serial task, let me kill some monster again, do some holy water.
"The holy water is in the fountain behind this statue of the goddess." The old man said to me with a white jade spoon in his hand.
鄙shì, strongly disdainful shì, and said that there is no money, I see that this spoon is inlaid with a lot of gems, luxury, absolute luxury, the back half of the handle is all gold, and I cry poor, but for the sake of you can give me the light cross sword, we will not worry about you, I immediately took a step forward and said to the old man: "Then let's hurry up and get it, this medal should be consecrated as soon as possible, so as not to have any accidents." ”
Turning the statue, sure enough, there was a small fountain in the back, which was gurgling and spitting bubbles, the liquid level neither overflowed the edge of the pool, nor lowered, and there were bursts of hot air floating up from the clear spring water, is this holy water, I think it is no different from ordinary spring water, I couldn't help but turn my head and glance at the old man, he walked to the edge of the fountain seriously, muttered in his mouth, scooped up half a spoonful of spring water from it.
