105 The Trial of the Seven Sons (28)
The seven-son trial is similar to a normal martial arts trial, but the two parties involved have become seven against seven, and relatively speaking, individual power has become less important.
This kind of judgment is sacred and easy to refuse, but it is not unique to the church, and everyone can ask for it when faced with charges or accusations, and then organize people to fight against each other.
Of course, this all does not include civilians.
The Kingsguard Raymont Baratheon hesitated about this, and instead of making a decision immediately, he prepared to go back to the inn where he was staying to think about it.
Lan Li didn't force this, or it was useless to force it.
If there really is still a year left, then there is actually a lot of room for him to maneuver, but now things have become very sudden, so he can only use the alternative-
From passive to proactive.
In terms of the church, Lan Li is just a gifted new knight, and although he has contributed a very important invention, it has little to do with his own combat effectiveness.
On the side of the Kingsguard Raymont Baratheon, Lan Li is not the only ally of the other party, but it is also a point that can be exploited.
Then, if the applicant for the Judgment of the Seven Sons is replaced by this Imperial Guard, his chances of joining in will be much greater, or rather, Lan Li will be sure to join from him.
It's just that this method is actually not solid, because if you leave the church and run out on your own, it is difficult to say whether you will follow the mission goal or not.
The mission is to participate in and win the Church's trial of the Seven Sons of Maeg I in the name of the son of a warrior.
Lan Li is indeed the son of a warrior now, but if the judgment is not initiated by the church, then even if it is victorious, can it still be considered completed?
So he hadn't had this idea before, but now he had to do it as a last resort.
But if the church joins in......
Thinking about this question all the way, he had unconsciously reached the confines of the Sanctuary.
In the dark night, stepping on the square at the top of the Rhaenys Hill, the absent-minded Lan Li suddenly heard a chaotic footsteps, looked sideways, but happened to find a thin figure fell to the ground with a pop, but under Lan Li's gaze, he didn't hesitate to get up and continue to run towards him, a messy long black hair spread out, plus the white robe he was wearing, he looked like a demon and a monster.
It's just that when he approached, the cheeks that were exposed by the later people looked quite kind.
This person is naturally a mute nun, and Lan Li recognized the other party at first sight.
Her nose was a little red, and there was a bloody scar on her forehead, and now she was slowly spilling blood, but her face was full of smiles, and when she approached, she pulled up the corner of Lan Li's clothes with one hand, and handed him a mint leaf with the other.
She looked smiling, but when Mint handed it forward, her eyes seemed to be a little apprehensive, as if she was afraid that Lan Li would not accept it.
This appearance made Lan Li a little stunned, and then vaguely understood something.
Normally he would teach her to read and write in the evenings, but today the conversation lasted a little long, and it was already past normal time, so this one may be a little anxious.
So he reached out and took the mint leaf and stuffed it into his mouth, and at the same time raised his hand to rub the other's hair, and even Raya's already messy long hair became more serious.
However, the little nun did not express her displeasure at this, and the smiling mouth on her face covered by her long chaotic hair grew even bigger, as if to flatter and curry.
This expression was completely different from the initial appearance of being stimulated and running away, but this made Lan Li look quite uncomfortable.
"You should learn to get used to being away from me, because sooner or later you will have to live on your own."
Muttering, he motioned for Raya to sit on a nearby bench, while he pulled out the handkerchief and box of brown and red oil he had brought with him, and began to treat the wound on his forehead.
The anointing oil is called Mill Fire, which is produced in the handicraft capital of the free trade city-state, and the effect is to burn and clean the wound and disinfect it, because there will be bumps and bumps in the training time, so this kind of thing is equipped with blue gifts, and now it is just used to use it.
The other party is very honest now, sitting there obediently, letting Lan Li apply this hot medicinal oil on her head, although her little head is moving because of this, but the sitting posture of her legs together and her hands covering each other's lower abdomen is maintained very well.
This is the sitting posture that Lan Li taught her many times before teaching, so that Raya should not touch other people's things while sitting.
Now it looks quite similar, and at a glance, the whole person is like a little lady, and Lan Li is quite pleased with this.
"But before I leave, I'll find you a reliable nun to take care of you, and then you should be able to communicate with people in writing...... No, I should have settled you before the trial, otherwise it would be terrible if I died, and I couldn't let you stay here, that Meg is a madman, and if he wins the trial, he will use a dragon to kill people, and he deserves to die a good death. ”
He muttered as he applied the medicine, as if he was explaining what was going on.
Raya looked at him blankly, unable to understand.
Lan Li shook his head when he saw this, and after applying the medicinal oil, he didn't leave, but just sat on the chair next to the girl and leaned back in a state of contemplation.
One of the two was stunned and didn't want to speak, and the other looked at each other curiously but couldn't speak, and the atmosphere was quite quiet for a while.
At night, the temple building resembles a dormant monster, and the closed door resembles the eyes of a monster, unmoved as if it had been dead for a long time.
Only the sound of insects chirping around and the sound of the fountain statue in the center of the square was incessant, faintly bringing a hypnotic power.
It was the height of summer, and the climate was not cold, thinking about it, he was a little confused, and Lan Li, who was in a daze, fell asleep like this.
He had a bizarre dream, in which he incarnated as a powerful knight in the martial arts arena to kill all directions, and finally awakened the ability to communicate with the heart and then became a generation of language masters, but then the environment of this dream changed, he seemed to become a mute, and then ran to be a teacher, and the result was a long time to compare and draw, and a group of elementary school students in school uniforms below still couldn't understand, he was a little angry, and suddenly thought that he could use his mobile phone, but when he took it out of his pocket, the dream dissipated instantly.
The hazy mind regained consciousness, and everything in the dream passed quickly, and finally only a wisp of afterglow remained in the bottom of the heart, but it became more and more blurred. When I opened my eyes, a flash of light bloomed in the sky, proving that a new day had arrived.
The surroundings were quite quiet, and Lan Li, who had come to her senses, thought of something, so she hurriedly turned her head to look and found that Raya beside her had not left, and now she was sitting on a chair, folding her hands and bowing her head in prayer, looking very quiet.
Raya had discovered this habit since Lan Li hadn't really come into contact with it at the beginning, and he didn't care about it, but when he woke up, he was very patient, or he didn't want to think about anything serious, so he took a few more looks, and a discovery made him stunned.
Because he suddenly realized that normal nuns would only pray in front of the corresponding statues or representations of the seven gods, but the direction in which the girl was facing was the male sculpture in the center of the square.
Lan Li wondered about this, so when the other party finished praying and looked at him with joy, he raised his hand and pointed to the statue, and then drew a question mark on the ground.
This line of behavior represents asking what this thing is, and usually Lan Li teaches this point so that the other party can "say the question" when facing unfamiliar things, and then he will answer it again.
Now that it was used on Raya in reverse, she could understand it.
So she picked up the branch and squatted on the ground as if she was about to write, but after hesitating for a long time, she didn't write a word, and finally raised her eyes to look at Lan Li, her eyes full of distress and confusion.
Lan Li understood that she didn't know how to express it, or that she hadn't learned the corresponding expression vocabulary.
He was a little disappointed, but he didn't care too much, but the other party didn't give up, and after sitting back in the chair, she pulled Lan Li's sleeve and looked at him, muttering for a long time, and finally muttered a syllable.
Raya couldn't speak only because she couldn't hear, not because she couldn't speak, and in the past contact process, she had uttered all kinds of inexplicable words, some of which sounded like some random babbling, and some of which vaguely seemed to match the lingua franca.
Lan Li guessed that Raya might have imitated it by observing other people's mouth movements when they spoke, which was usually difficult to identify, but today it sounded different.
Compared to the usual vagueness, it is not extremely clear, but it is also understandable.
Because of this, Lan Li was a little stunned.
Because the meaning of this syllable in the lingua franca is father.
