Chapter 19: The Church of the Gray Mountains

"Please be seated!" Clark saw the child's surprised look, and the indifferent look shown by Lao Yu, he knew that after the meeting just now, the old man probably guessed his identity.

As soon as he returned to the city, he met Lao Yu, a foreigner who seemed to have a lot of combat experience. At a time when the church is desperate to acquire talents to accelerate the expansion of the number of believers, it can be regarded as a matter of relief!

Ma Shuo and the two of them, who had experienced too many twists and turns, sat opposite each other with some restraint. After more than a year on the run, the two are very sensitive and vigilant against any kindness for no reason.

Especially Lao Yu, except for his parents, where in the world is there any kindness for no reason? This political official who has been eyeing him since the two of them just got out of the car must have something to do!

If you are only trying to attract the congregation and residents of this church city, there is no need to receive them in person. Now it's time to understand why the other person is so serious!

Thinking of this, Lao Yu pulled Ma Shuo up again and asked respectfully, "My lord, is there anything we need to do?"

"Excuse me, have you practiced some combat skills?" Clark didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically as if to confirm his judgment.

After hesitating for a moment, Lao Yu nodded and admitted: "Yes, my lord, the villain has practiced shooting and knife skills before! It's just to facilitate hunting and chopping wood to support his family, unfortunately, he may not be able to help his lord!"

Hearing this, Clark snorted lightly and replied with obvious distrust, "Sir, you are lying! The hands are calloused, and you should be good at using heavy weapons, such as cross-swords or machetes and sledgehammers!"

When Lao Yu heard Clark's words, his hands unconsciously clenched behind him, but it was obviously too late!

Clark also got up and came to the two of them almost at the same time, and this action frightened Little Pony so much that he ducked behind Lao Yu again.

However, Clark didn't pay attention to the child's movements, but looked down at Lao Yu, who was a head shorter than himself: "We don't care what you used to do, why you came here, it doesn't matter! As long as you don't violate the rules of Jiaye City, you are absolutely safe! I swear in the name of Gray Mountain!"

The political official in front of him is too smart, and he has been tricking them from the beginning! Although he made it clear that he would not make any dangerous moves against the two of them, this wisdom alone made Lao Yu, who was not outstanding in intelligence, unbearable!

Helpless has already arrived on other people's territory, rather than resisting, it is better to compromise for the time being. After all, this is not the Black Gate, and there is no big grudge!

Thinking of this, Lao Yu sighed and looked up at Clarke, who was standing in front of him: "Okay! I'm a newly retired heavy-armed soldier who has participated in some army command missions! Now I have to come to Jiaye City! Also, my surname is Yu!"

Seeing that Lao Yu admitted his identity, although there may still be some concealment or lies, it doesn't matter anymore!

After nodding and motioning for the two to sit down, Clark asked again: "Then when Mr. Yu came to look for me, when he saw the soldiers guarding all the way, how do you feel about their strength? How does it compare to you?"

The troops that can guard the city manager are definitely not rookie level, but Lao Yu feels that he may be considered an elite among ordinary troops! It is not very strong, especially compared to the troops of the Ma family, there is still a gap in spirit!

Although the idea is so, whether it is to conceal strength or avoid offending this political official, it is impossible to tell the truth.

So, Lao Yu lowered his head to avoid Clark's gaze, pretended to remember for a moment and then commented: "I'm sorry, Mr. Clark, I'm relatively shallow, and it's not easy to make comparisons, but from the troops I've seen, it's already the most elite one!"

Speaking of which, he added: "I swear in the name of Ash Mountain!"

Originally, Clark was only a little satisfied with Lao Yu's answer, but he didn't expect that in the end he would swear in the name of Ash Mountain!

This situation made him raise his eyebrows in surprise, maybe the other party didn't know what it meant to swear in the name of Gray Mountain, but at least he felt friendly from his attitude.

So he responded with a smile: "It just so happens that there is a small number of heavily armed defense troops in Jiaye City, I hope to be able to get Mr. Yu's guidance, as a reward, the two of them can stay and live, of course, it is best to be influenced by the doctrine and become brothers with us!"

After speaking, he took a piece of paper with a human figure from the table behind him, handed it to Lao Yu and explained: "This is a unit established in imitation of the Beast Hunter Team, although it is much worse than the real Beast Hunting Team, but!"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lao Yu: "If it is used as a sharp knife and shield, it is already the top individual weapon configuration except for the beast hunting team!"

Now that you have admitted that you have served in the army, you might as well show some value, maybe this way can make the two of you safer!

Returning the paper in his hand to Clark, Lao Yu nodded: "Okay! Thank you for giving us a place to live in peace, I will do my best to help the city lord and adults train these troops!"

Clarke, who had already achieved his goal, laughed: "Tomorrow, let's prepare a place for you to live today, and I hope to have a fight with you!"

Seeing that Lao Yu's face became a little helpless and puzzled for a moment, Clark immediately explained: "It's just to verify Your Excellency's strength!

After saying that, he immediately ordered his secretary to prepare his residence, and suddenly remembered something and turned around and said, "By the way, Your Excellency should go and take a look at the Gray Mountain Doctrine, most of this army is also a cultist, so it may be a little different from the soldiers you came into contact with before!"

At this time, the secretary raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation, and the old man and the two bowed to Clark before stepping away.

The place to live is very close, about 200 meters north of this office building, and it is so simple that there is no decoration in the one-bedroom apartment, which looks like it has only recently been vacated.

Just as the two of them sighed in the best house they had lived in in more than a year, the secretary walked in with luggage and a book as thick as a dictionary.

Seeing this, Lao Yu hurriedly took the package, and the secretary put the book on the bed and patted it: "This is the Gray Mountain Classic, please feel free, dinner will be delivered to you later!

After sending off the secretary, Lao Yu returned to the house, opened the thick canon and looked at it. Fortunately, he is familiar with the Maple Leaf Chinese script, so it is not difficult to read!

Seeing this, Xiao Ma Shuo also sat obediently on the edge of the bed on the side, and Lao Yu read it in Jinwu Chinese one sentence at a time: "A thousand years ago. In order to fight against the Inhuman. Holy war.. State religion.. The ashes are piled up into a mountain, so they call themselves Ash Mountain... ”
