Chapter 55: Just to Save People
The content of the mission is very simple, let Jiang Li go to the surrounding neighbors to learn about the situation of Milai and his wife, and finally lift the curse.
What she learned made Jiang Li indignant, after Milley's husband died in a hunt, her life became miserable, but she was the leader of the choir, and every time she sang, whether it was a celebration or a wedding or a funeral, she could get some extra income, and the church certainly didn't care about the little reward given to Milley by her employer. Milley is simple, she wants to raise her son independently, she has read a little books, and she has some business mind, so she uses the money she earns to start some small businesses and sell some jewelry to support her family.
Since she is the lead singer in the choir, she sometimes has to delay her business. Once, because of the strong wind and rain caused by the delivery to people, Milley came back late. She couldn't dress herself up neatly, so she had to simply clean up and rush to the show.
The man who hired the choir was a mean aristocrat, and he used Milley's disheveled clothes as an excuse to rebuke the bishop who led the group. When he could talk to the bishop, he found out that Milley was a widow, and he had a twisted mind.
It is clear that such a nobleman hired someone to impose a curse after being rejected, but who would be the one who imposed the curse? This matter is inseparable from the choir leader and even the Holy See. These people are a bit too brute.
The best thing to do is to find a mage to find out what the curse is on the mother and child. Jiang Li went to Kaiyazu, Kaiyazu was a book lover and had a lot of knowledge, and Jiang Li believed that he would definitely understand this curse. Sure enough, Kaiazug just looked at it and pointed out the name of the curse.
"Silence Order" is one of the few negative curse spells in light magic. Similar to silence is the ability to silence the target, but this spell is slow to act, making it unsuitable for combat. Kaiyazu also told Jiang Li that the level of this magic is very high, it is a level 11 magic, and only a priest of the Magister-level can cast it.
Jiang Li had a hint of realization in his mind, this person who cast the silence order must have high rights, and he must have a certain friendship with the Milai family, otherwise he would not see Maidang.
Seeing off Kaiazu, Jiang Li returned to Milai's home. Milley was sorting through the accounts of trivial transactions, and her small shop was in a slump, and because she couldn't speak, she couldn't sell her goods, and the business of the small shop was getting worse and worse.
"I want to know, is there a senior pastor with whom you have a good relationship and who has seen Wheat Dang?"
Milai is a smart person, as soon as she heard Jiang Li ask this, she knew that this person must have a direct relationship with her inability to speak. After she lost her ability to speak, she went to many pharmacists, and even asked a magician to check on her, but she couldn't find the reason. It seems that the level of the magician is not high enough to recognize this curse on his body. She drew a name on the table, Jaland!
Sure enough, it was him, he was the choir leader, and he usually handled the hiring of the choir or the money transactions with the church. If you want to lift the curse, you can only go to a Holy See leader who is more senior than Jaland. There is only one such person in the City of Fire, Lord Cardinal.
Jiang Li is a player, he doesn't have such a high status, and it is impossible to meet the cardinal like this. He thought of a person who had a fiery personality and was as jealous as hatred, and maybe he could take advantage of it. He went straight to the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord's Mansion was much more lively than before, although people could only move in the front hall, buy land, and receive some tasks, but compared with Jiang Li's first visit to the City Lord's Mansion, the current City Lord's Mansion was as lively as a bazaar. The sale of the land has been handed over to someone else, and Lord Lei Huo doesn't have the patience to be a receptionist.
Lei Huo will definitely help Jiang Li, he is the lord of Flame City, Jiang Li is now the number one landlord in Flame City, and he has earned a lot of money that he continues to buy land, whether Flame City will be prosperous in the future has a lot to do with Jiang Li.
Every time he sees Lei Huo Jiang Li, he will feel uncomfortable, this madman doesn't know how to avoid it at all, he looks at people directly, and the people he stares at must have a feeling of being targeted by beasts.
"It's not a little bit, the matter of buying and selling land is not in my hands, if you want to buy land again, you have to go to the people in the front hall." Lei Huo didn't think that Jiang Li could do anything to find himself, except during the war, he never issued a mission.
"Your citizens have been cursed. I want to help her, but I suspect that the person who casts the curse has a lot of power, so I can only come to you. ”
"Do you think this man can't even be a sheriff?" Lei Huohu asked with a pair of big eyes.
"This person is a member of the Holy See, and he is of a very high rank." Jiang Li didn't say who it was directly, if he couldn't arouse Lei Huo's interest, Milai's mother and son would be saved.
"Are you trying to save people? Or do you want to get rid of the harm? Lei Huo's eyes narrowed, for a person who looked very rough on the outside and even gave people a wild feeling, saying such words made Jiang Li feel shocked.
Jiang Li remembered that many people commented that Lei Huo was jealous and hateful, brave and fearless, brave and unscrupulous, and even handed over the command of the battle to the deputy. It seems that none of these people really understand Lei Huo, this is a smart person, a person who is smart enough to see himself clearly.
Obviously, Lei Huo already knew who the person Jiang Li was talking about, at least he already knew who the small group of people Jiang Li was referring to. The choice he gives is also clear.
"Save people" Jiang Li is not in the mood to join the power dispute between the empire and the Holy See, he just wants to solve his own task.
"Alright, let's go see Red Riding Hood." Lei Huo regained his usual expression, and ran to the front stupidly.
Jiang Li was speechless for a while, the big man had great wisdom.
Soon the two of them saw the red hat head in the mouth of the thunder fire. Cardinal Sopsa.
"Red Hat, my little brother received a mission, a person was cursed, the level is quite high, you can lift it, how about to help." The Thunder Fire Urn said angrily, regardless of whether Sopsa agreed to pull it up and go out.
"Don't pull, I'll just go with you, it's our responsibility to lift the dark curse, just bring people." Sopsa played an official tone and put on a face that was the embodiment of justice.
"It's not a dark curse, it's a silence order." It turned out to be Lei Huo.
Jiang Li's heart trembled. It's such a high IQ, I just said curse, and he guessed that it was the silence order of the light department. Lei Huo's IQ has to be taken one more look, this guy is pretending to be a pig.
"Oh? Is there another fallen priest? But it's been a long time since there's such a high-level fallen priest, Thunderfire, and you'll have to keep an eye on the city guards. "Sopsa is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he is very thick-skinned, so he directly pushes the responsibility out, and doesn't he doubt the people around you more than he suspects those depraved priests who are far away, or even nothing.
"I don't care who casts the spell, the little brother just wants to lift the spell. You go and break the spell, and I'll complete the task, or he'll come back to trouble me. Lei Huo's words are half-truths and half-truths, how can Jiang Li have the ability to make trouble with him. But apparently he had learned everything he wanted to know.
"I needed to hire a clever clerk, so I found her, and as a result, she was cursed, and according to the instructions of the Lord God, I had to ask the Lord of Thunder Fire City for help." Jiang Li is also making up stories, but he must protect Millie's mother and son, the best way is to hire her to help him manage the shop, the player's shop pù is protected by the main god, and the employees are also protected, if the aborigines hurt these employees, the main god will definitely not look at it.
The three of them soon arrived at Millie's house, and Sopsa smiled and said to Millie, "I'll help Maidang lift the curse first, the child is more anxious, you say?" ”
Sopsa didn't show any flaws on the surface, but what he said made Jiang Li suspect that the person who cast the spell might be this Sopsa, and Jaland instructed a clown to put a shield in front of Sopsa.
No one introduced, how do you know that his name is Maidang, and Sopsa is very familiar with the environment around Millie's house, Jiang Li just walked beside him on the way here, and he was a little behind him, in fact, the person who led the way was Sopsa himself. He had known for a long time that the person who was going to lift the curse was Millie's mother and son.
The curse was lifted quickly, and Sopsa was basically lifted with a wave of his hand.
"Red Riding Hood, it's not easy to come out once, go to my place for a drink, Dark Blade, you can continue to complete your mission, don't come to me again if it's not a big deal." Thunderfire picked up Sopsa and walked towards the city lord's mansion.
Before Millie could thank Sopsa, he had been pulled away by the thunderfire.
"The person who casts the curse is of a very high rank, and it doesn't do you any good to know who he is now."
"Well, I don't want to make trouble, I just want to watch McDonald grow up, and the rest of the qiē doesn't matter." Millie isn't stupid either.
System: Complete the quest "Confused and Good People", you gain 40,000 experience, 40 copper coins, you gain Millie's friendship 3,000, and you reach intimacy with Millie's friendship.
"I have a shop pù and I need a clerk, you can go to my place as a clerk, the salary is very good, and the place is very safe." Jiang Li directly chose to hire Millie, their goodwill has reached intimacy, and Millie can cross identities to become a clerk.
Millie gladly accepted, her intelligence was not low, and she knew what was good for her.
"Also, I need you to sing the song of rest at Raib's funeral, and I will arrange the time for you, and you will have a good rest as you have just regained your ability to speak. I'll take you to my shop right now. ”
Jiang Li picked up Mai Dang, who was still a little afraid to speak, and led the way towards the Hope Grocery Store, he had already contacted Melodious Melody and asked her to arrange the two NPC clerks.
Of the three tasks, the simplest old account remains. As soon as he thought of this task, Jiang Li itched at the root of his teeth, damn old man, just die.
Somme, the merchant, lives in the small town of Finnzel, the same town where Jiang Li first met Raib. The instructions of the task were very clear, and it turned out to be the noble businessman that Jiang Li handed over the dogtooth task.
