Chapter 91: The Priest Who Sells Lamb Skewers
The bells of the monastery of Edoris heralded the dawn of another morning, and the white beads in the courtyard emitted a seductive fragrance, and Yuna sat in front of the statue of the goddess of love and beauty, boredly teasing the white bird perched on her shoulder.
As the nuns passed by the corridor, they would glance in the direction of Yuna from time to time, pointing at Yuna's white robe.
White symbolizes holiness, and in the Edores Monastery, only the Holy Maidens are allowed to wear white robes, and the green edge of the skirt of the Celestial Religion symbolizes tolerance, and the orange folds symbolize love.
Youna's white robe is very similar to Mu Bingyue's holy robe, the difference is that the skirt folds have a pattern symbolizing the dawn of the sun, which seems to have a great connection with the cult Tianzhao Sect.
Mu Bingyue has noticed this problem since the day Youna put on her original white robe, the Tianzhao Sect has never believed in gods, but has an extreme worship of Yaori, they believe that Yaori has a power to cleanse the evil of the world, and it is the driving force behind what they call "sanctioning" terrorist activities.
Mu Bingyue did not mention this matter to anyone, including Ling Wenxuan, who was the most trusted, first, there was no evidence to prove that this woman was a member of the Tianzhao Sect, and second, if Ling Wenxuan knew about this, he would definitely hand over Youna to the Haojun Holy See, and this person's loyalty to the Holy See would even affect his judgment.
Sheltering the Tianzhao Sect disciples, who are regarded as cults by the world, is one of the ten felonies of this sect, Mu Bingyue hopes that Ling Wenxuan can leave the monastery as soon as possible with Youna, and in the future, if Youna is found out to be a Tianzhao Sect disciple, she can also say that she has no knowledge.
Before she got close to Youna, Mu Bingyue was thinking about so many questions that Yuna called her for a long time before she reacted.
"Bingyue, don't just stand over there, come and chat with me. ”
"You will also call me Bingyue, why don't you call me the Holy Maiden like everyone else. Mu Bingyue said and sat next to Youna.
Yuna looked back and smiled: "Because you don't like people to call you that, and you are so young, wouldn't it be too old to call you a saint." ”
"You! When did this mouth become so talkative? ”
"I'm just trying to 'talk,' I don't know anything about my past, what was my past personality like? Yuna lowered her head, a sad look across her face, "What about you, why do you always wear this veil?"
Mu Bingyue was silent for a long time and was silent.
"Forget it, if you think my question offends you, just assume that I didn't ask. Yuna apologized to Mu Bingyue.
"Others have asked me the same questions like you, I've long been used to it, how can I be angry?" Mu Bingyue smiled and waved her hand, "On the contrary, I think we are very similar in some aspects, isn't it good to maintain each other's interest? ”
"Xiao Jiu, this sister thinks you are very boring, you don't give a little expression. ”
As soon as Yuna's words fell, Shiratori seemed to be very angry, and flew away towards the sky with two sharp screams.
"A very spiritual bird, are you in charge of feeding?" Mu Bingyue was very curious about the behavior of the white bird.
"It's my friend, and it's hard to explain that we're friends. After Yu Na briefly told Mu Bingyue about the story of knowing Xiao Jiu, she said goodbye to her and walked towards the end of the corridor.
After about ten minutes, Youna came to Youyang Street in Wanyang City. Looking at the bustling crowd and large and small shops, her mood turned from cloudy to sunny, and her steps became lighter and lighter.
Mu Bingyue is not exaggerating to describe the liveliness of Wanyang City, there are so many carriages passing by the road that it almost causes traffic jams, and all kinds of shops are full of tricks to attract customers, there are often beautiful ladies in maid outfits standing in front of the coffee house, and the clothes of the sales lady in front of the clothing store are relatively simple, and the thick and strong men in the weapon shop simply hold the hot-selling weapons in their hands for on-site demonstration.
Street vendors are popular with many citizens because of their mobility, some pushing two-wheeled carts loaded with all kinds of fresh fruit, some on huge coarse cloths full of gold and silver jewelry, and some turning half-ripe lamb skewers on ovens.
The aroma of the smell stimulated Yuna's taste glands, she swallowed her saliva, took out three round copper plates from her pocket, and walked up to the young man with a sheep's beard in front of the oven: "Young man, how much is your lamb skewer?"
"Five belens, one skewer!" the man continued to coat the lamb skewers with sauce, sticking out five fingers without raising his head.
"It's too expensive, I only have three beluns in my hand now, can you sell it to me cheaply." Yuna spread the coin in her palm and shook it, but the man still didn't look up.
"That's not possible, my mutton skewers are famous for their color, fragrance and taste in Quanwanyang, and this price has been sold for more than ten years, how can I say that it can be changed......" The man was very impatient with Youna's, but when he raised his head, the whole person immediately froze, "Oh my God! Why are you!
"You're so strange, do we know each other?" the man looked up before Yuna noticed that he had three conspicuous freckles on his face.
"I'm Ling Wenxuan!" the man took off half of his fake beard, and after Yuna recognized his appearance, he glued it back again.
"Oh, Father Priest, what are you doing in this dress?"
"Be quiet, I don't want to be recognized. Seeing that Youna was about to scream, Ling Wenxuan hurriedly covered her mouth, "Aren't I working to pay off my debts, even if I don't want to repay Lan Lingxiang's money, I owe the Holy Maiden that share that must be given, but you also know that I have such a small salary a month." ”
"I can't imagine that I, Ling Wenxuan, a famous Middle-earth celebrity and a hero in the eyes of the world, have now ended up like this. Wen Xuan said and pretended to wipe his dry eyes, "You can eat as much as you want about this mutton skewer, and I won't charge you money." ”
"No, I can give you the money, but you have to promise me that I won't be so treacherous in business in the future. Yu Na smiled and stuffed the three-bellum copper plate into Ling Wenxuan's hand, and then took a bite of the mutton skewer in her hand, "Wow! I didn't expect your craftsmanship to be so good, you can bake it so delicious." ”
"I've been learning this craft since I was a child, and I have to master a few more skills in order to survive. ”
Ling Wenxuan patted his chest and looked very proud, at this moment, there was a sound of smashing on the street diagonally opposite, people gathered in the direction where the sound came from, Youna guessed that it must be the pork stall opposite that was in trouble, so she asked Ling Wenxuan to accompany her to take a look.
Originally, Ling Wenxuan didn't want to meddle in things, but at Youna's insistence, he had to helplessly spread his hands and follow closely behind Youna.
Yuna squeezed through the crowd and saw four black-clothed men with long whips surrounding an old man over seventy years old, and a woman in red with a spear standing next to her.
"Old man Zhao, you should know very well what I am here for. Lan Lingxiang showed anger on his face, and the spear in his hand made a sound of loading a bullet.
"Miss Lan, please give me a few more days of grace, my daughter is sick, and all the family's savings have been spent. The old man kowtowed to Lan Lingxiang on the ground.
"I've given you enough time, it's you who don't appreciate it, and it's useless to plead now. Lan Lingxiang said and waved his hand, and the four black-clothed men beside him raised their long whips and whipped them down fiercely at the old man.
With the whipping of the leather whip, the old man immediately let out a miserable cry, but no one dared to stop the onlookers until the sound of "stop" came.
Lan Lingxiang craned her neck, eager to see the face of the commoner who dared to offend her, the noble lady.
A waist-length silver-haired woman from the Wai clan walked out of the crowd, her angry eyes made Lan Lingxiang feel a burst of surprise, the weak image of this woman who had seen her for the first time disappeared without a trace.
"It turned out to be you, I remember that you were the woman from the Wei clan beside Ling Wenxuan that day, what was your name?"
"My name is Yuna!"
"Your serious eyes really make me a little unaccustomed, remember the last time I was in the harbor when I asked Ling Wenxuan for a debt, weren't you as quiet as a gentle little white rabbit?" After the laughter of the four men in black was over, Lan Lingxiang continued, "Ling Wenxuan still owes me 50 million Belen, now do you plan to pay it off for him." ”
Yuna didn't pay attention to Lan Lingxiang's words at all, but came to the old man to check the wounds on his body, and when she saw that the old man was beaten to pieces, she turned her head angrily and shouted at Lan Lingxiang: "You are too much!"
Lan Lingxiang shouted-for-tat: "I don't think there is anything excessive? This person owes me 20 million Belen, and he has not been able to pay it off until now, do I need to be merciful to deal with this kind of untrustworthy person?"
"He can't afford to pay back because his daughter is sick, don't you feel ashamed to treat an elderly man like this?"
"This young lady, you get out of here quickly, don't offend Miss Lan, she is the most powerful person in our Wanyang. The old man crawled up.
"Old man, don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you. Yuna stood up and turned to Lan Lingxiang, "You must apologize to this old man." ”
"You're really joking, why should you make the nobles apologize to the common people, but if you can, that's another matter. Lan Lingxiang immediately let out a cold laugh, she raised her spear with one hand and aimed it at Youna, "This gun is called 'Tianka', it is the fastest magic gun in the world, it will be quite painful to be hit by a glue bullet, if you can take my shot and not fall, I will apologize to this old man, how about it?"
"Miss, go quickly, I don't deserve what you do for me!" the old man pleaded with his arms propped up.
"Well, I promise you!"
"Don't regret it!"
At the moment when Lan Lingxiang knocked on the trigger, Yuna closed her eyes, thinking that she must not fall, but in the face of a glue bullet with magic power, what could she do with a mere Salo?
Yuna imagined herself falling to the ground in pain, and Lan Lingxiang sneering at her. But things didn't go the way she had imagined, so she opened her eyes.
I saw that Ling Wenxuan appeared between her and Lan Lingxiang at some point, he held the spirit in his right hand, opposite Lan Lingxiang's Tianjia muzzle, and there were two spherical plastic bullets on the ground.
"You're really messing around, and you're getting into as much trouble as I am. Ling Wenxuan smiled and winked at Youna, then turned to Lan Lingxiang, "Miss Lan, I think this matter will be over, presumably you don't want to lure Wanyang's police out." ”
"You...... Who the hell is it?" Lan Lingxiang obviously didn't recognize Ling Wenxuan in disguise.
