102 The Judgment of the Seven Sons (25)
Looking at the current situation alone, it is difficult to believe that Lan Li's plan was correct, because since he began to contact the other party, the little nun's habit of stealing things has not only not improved, but has become more serious.
It's just that unlike before, what she stole would be shared with Lan Li every time.
Raya has come to see herself as a friend and knows how to share, which is a good thing. But what she shared was the stolen goods she had stolen, but it made him feel quite subtle.
However, Lan Li did not "speak" to blame, because it was impossible for the other party to understand what he meant, even if she scolded her, she didn't know anything, let alone beaten, from childhood to adulthood, this person is estimated to be beaten dozens of times more than ordinary children.
It's just that despite this, but the statement that should be there can't be without, so every time she steals something during this time, Lan Li will pull the little guy to run to the original owner of the item to return it, and apologize, sometimes I can't find the original owner, so I give it to an old nun with a high prestige among the nuns, and then let her help deal with it.
He thought that in this way, Raya would understand the meaning of doing this sooner or later.
At the same time, he didn't think that taking the initiative to stand up like this would cause any trouble, because Raya had a perennial notoriety, and even if she didn't do it, others would have suspected it, and even took it for granted, or if she hadn't been inexplicably cared for in the temple, she would have been kicked out a long time ago. Now that he has not been kicked out, it is "irrelevant" to add some more notoriety.
This behavior is quite strange to the nuns.
"Sir Lemon is a good guy."
"What's the use of being a good person, Raya is hopeless."
"It's a good thing that Raya can listen to him, and we can save a lot of trouble. May the gods bless him......"
……
There are some nuns who live here, and most of them are tired of the mute nun who can't get rid of her, and who is not well educated, and now they are happy to have someone to control and it really works.
It's just that there are good arguments in it, and there are also bad arguments.
The clergy are ascetic and sensitive, and now the son of a warrior is always mixed with a nun, and it is difficult not to provoke criticism.
This kind of discussion has not stopped, and even spread more and more widely.
So one day, when Lan Li was in the middle of training, he was called by Knight Murray to talk, or explain his actions.
The venue for the conversation was a conference room, and in addition to Knight Murray, there were Nancy Tabek, the head of the Warrior's Son, Knight Owen, the trainer, several deputy captains who Lan Li did not know, and a bald man dressed as a monk.
"Someone told us that you've been getting close to one of the nuns of the Templar lately?"
The dark-haired leader Nancy has an unusual round face and two thick eyebrows, and his face looks extremely vicious, but considering the scene when he first meets him, it is difficult for Lan Li to think that he is a "serious person".
"Sister Raya." "I'm teaching her to read," he admits frankly. ”
"Literacy?"
These words seemed to make the people present a little stunned, and they looked at each other in disbelief.
"With all due respect, sir, I don't think a girl who has been deaf and dumb since childhood can learn to write," said the bald monk. He appears to be a member of the Templars, not a member of the Warrior's Son.
"Have you tried it?" Lan Li asked rhetorically.
"Of course not."
"How do you know you can't if you haven't tried it?"
"Normal people can understand why she can't, Sir, I don't think I need to explain it much." The monk shook his head.
"That's what I thought I was, but it turned out to be wrong." Lan Li replied seriously: "She can understand the words, I don't know why, but she can understand." ”
"Then why did you teach her to read, or rather, why did you approach a nun?" A strange deputy head asked coldly, as if he was very unhappy that there was such a trouble in the Knights.
"The fact that a strong knight comes into contact with a weak nun is not very good in the Templar, and the impact is not very positive."
"It's just the prejudice of mortals."
Before he came, Lan Li had thought about how to deal with it, so when he heard this, he immediately replied: "There is a sage who said well, when you see white arms, you think of nakedness, and when you see nakedness, you think of going to bed, this is not quite consistent here, but the meaning is about the same. When they see us together, they feel that there is adultery, but in fact, things are not that complicated at all, it is just that their nasty brains instinctively think about nasty things, yes, instinct. With all due respect, sir, such people are probably not very religious. ”
These words caused the bald monk to cough dryly, and the other people looked at each other, and they also behaved unnaturally, except for the Murray Knight, who was still expressionless.
"And what's the truth?" He asked.
"Truth is salvation."
Lan Li replied: "A person who can't listen or speak since she was a child, who doesn't understand anything except instinctive eating and drinking, she is like a beast, but she is a human being. If a man has fallen to the level of a beast, does he not need salvation? ”
"Naturally, our nun will teach him." The monk replied.
"Your nun can't do anything but shave her ears."
"There are so many people in the world who suffer, and she is nothing compared to it."
"Of course, but she's a nun, a nun who lives in the templar." Lan Li said loudly, "We preach that the gods save the world, but in the end, there is still one in the temple and under the noses of the gods in heaven who has not been saved, is this not a mistake? Don't we need to make amends? ”
These words made the people in the conference room look at each other, no one spoke, Lan Li felt that everything that should be said was said, so he said the last word.
"That's what I'm here for, and I'm going to keep doing it despite being questioned, and if you think my intentions are suspicious, I'm always under scrutiny."
After he finished speaking, he was silent, and the place fell into an atmosphere of silence, but after a while, Knight Murray raised his hand to him, so Lan Li bowed, leaving these people to talk inside.
There was a door behind him, and the voice was quite weak, because someone was guarding the door, Lan Li didn't have a chance to stay and eavesdrop on anything, so he could only step away, and felt quite helpless about it.
All of the above is just a quibble of his, he doesn't think his true purpose is noble, and he is even suspected of taking advantage of the little girl's feelings, but in any case, he thinks that this behavior is good, so although it sometimes feels awkward, he still decides to continue.
It's just that I've been thinking about the task itself before, but I didn't expect that there would be trouble in such a trivial matter.
But after thinking about it, Lan Li didn't pay much attention to it, but turned around and walked towards the outside of the hills, preparing to get the mint that he needed today.
