"Okay, Jeff, needless to say......" Alta didn't explain when he was blamed by his neighbors, but shook his head with a wry smile: "It's me who is wrong...... Hurry up, morning prayer will start soon, and the church is quite far away...... Let's go over and stabilize the wooden bridge......"

"What do you want me to help? Aren't you just on your own? ”

Saying this, Jeff quickly pulled his trouser legs, stepped on the two logs, spread his hands, staggered across the stream, and jumped to the opposite bank.

As soon as he landed, Jeff immediately leaned down, held down the two logs, and exerted himself with Alta, who had already been prepared, and the wooden bridge, which was already shaky, immediately stopped steadily.

"Okay...... Jeff looked up across the stream, "Master, you can come here...... Slow down...... Be careful when going up the bridge, it rained a little in the morning and the wood was a little slippery...... Don't be in a hurry when you go, you may be shaking if you walk fast...... That's right...... Take a small step, don't look down, look a little ahead...... And ......"

And also?

Having already walked to the wooden bridge, hearing Jeff's series of instructions, and hearing the concern and nervousness revealed in these reminders, the priest couldn't help but stop, rubbed his eyes, and couldn't help but look up and down for a long time near the stream that had come at least a hundred times.

That's right, I'm not mistaken!

The wooden bridge is still not long, only a dozen or so steps;

The wooden bridge is still not high, at most only one person high above the water;

Several days had passed since the torrential rain, and the stream below had long since calmed down and was not at all in a hurry......

…… Except for a few pieces of wood, everything else is still the same, and it has not quietly turned into a cliff, nor has it suddenly burst out of magma poisonous water......

But...... Why do you just think there's something wrong......

Thinking like this, Praia involuntarily began to get nervous, cautious, and even a little trembling to step on the log, one step at a time, one step at a time, and move slowly with full concentration, and after a long and long time, Praia finally walked across the wooden bridge that was only a dozen steps.

When his feet finally stepped on the mud, fine beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead, and his legs were a little weak, he grabbed Jeff's arm, and before he could stand up completely, Praia couldn't wait to ask, "Are these logs narrower than the original?" ”

"No, last time the wooden bridge was trampled by cows, this time I deliberately chose a thicker wood."

"Something wrong with the wood you just chopped? Prone to accidents? ”

"How could it be...... The wood used to build bridges in the village is like this, right? ”

"So...... A lot of gravel piled up under the bridge? ”

"Wouldn't it? Didn't all the stones wash up in the shallows? It's flat here, can't you keep it?

That's right!

Praia turned his head up and down, left and right, and looked again......

There's nothing wrong with that! There's no danger at all!

But why is this bridge so scary...... No, it's not the bridge that's scary, it's Jeff who's scary...... It's not right, it's not that Jeff is scary, it's wrong......

It doesn't make sense!

Praia's head began to spin rapidly.

When passing through the lot, Cleo, Adcock, and Hansel's three families, a dozen or so people listened attentively to the teachings and recited the holy words; When passing through the slope, Alta rushed over to support him with all his might, escorting him all the way; The attentive concern of these people, Praia actually felt that something was wrong, but he could barely understand that Xiao Luo had treated these people's cattle, and these people also wanted Xiao Luo to take care of them a few more times......

But the Jeff in front of him......

Praia thought carefully and thought, yes, this guy is indeed a bachelor...... No brothers, no friends, even neighbors don't deal with it, and more importantly...... This guy doesn't have a ploughing cow at all!

Could it be that it's not because of the ploughing cattle? Or is it not entirely because of the ploughing cattle?

Faintly, the deepest part of Praia's heart quietly gave birth to a somewhat inexplicable feeling......

The current Praia is no longer a teenager who has just arrived in the village of Ekri, and has been dealing with this group of stubborn, ignorant, selfish and cunning villagers for three years, and Praia can feel that along the way, Cleo, Adcock, Hansel's serious concentration, Alta's care all the way, and Jeff's anxious concern are not at all the appearance that can be pretended to be out of the psychology of making some benefits......

However, Praia couldn't sort out these vague thoughts for a while, and he didn't know how to ask the farmer for verification. As he thought of this, the priest noticed out of the corner of his eye that Arta was already standing next to him, looking at him with Jeff, who had already gotten up.

"Old man......" noticed that the priest came to his senses, and Alta cautiously reminded: "Morning prayer...... It's about to start......"

"What!" Looking at the sky quickly, Praia quickly stepped forward: "Oops...... It's almost too late......"

Just after taking a few steps, he heard two footsteps, Praia turned around, behind him, Alta and Jeff followed suit, and the priest hurriedly waved his hand: "What are you doing here?" ”

"Master, I'll go back and look at the peas in the field......" "I'll borrow my uncle's ploughing ox ......"

"What nonsense, Alta, go to your uncle and go down the hill...... And, Jeff, when the peas were harvested at your doorstep, the cattle in the village hadn't had any problems......

"Okay, okay......" Without waiting for the two to answer, Praia, who kept walking, waved his hand again: "Just send it here, I'll go back to the church myself...... The road ahead is quite easy, so go about your work...... Go, go, get busy......"

"This ......"

Glancing at each other, Jeff and Alta slowly stopped.

"Jeff, your house is right in front of you...... It's pretty easy to walk ahead, right? ”

"The road is very easy to walk...... But the old man walked so fast...... I'm worried about ......"

"It should be all right, right? Or...... Shall we go again? ”

"This ...... Not so good...... The old man said let's go and get busy by ourselves...... We are now in the past...... In case you make the old man angry......"

Jeff and Alta's voices were low as they said this, but the conversation between the two neighbors reached the priest's ears clearly, not knowing whether it was because of the morning breeze or because it was too quiet.

Hearing that Jeff and Arta regarded themselves as weak straws and planned to continue escorting, the priest hurriedly walked faster.

The next moment, Alta's answer continued to come back clearly.

"Nonsense, how can the lord be angry? So many ploughing cattle in the village were injured, is the old man angry? Los begged the master to teach such a precious way to cure the cow, was the master angry? Everyone hasn't done a good job of summer service, is the lord angry? Such a good man, sir...... Do you get angry because we catch up! ”

Such a good man, sir!

Praia's footsteps paused slightly, and the vague feeling in his heart was a little clearer, but he could think about it carefully, but he didn't have any exact clue.

This is normal, Praia, who barely belongs to the aristocratic class, is not talented, second, not stoic and hardworking, and third, not decisive in killing, such an ordinary trainee priest, vision, insight, and experience, like the vast majority of natives in the medieval world, limited to the times and ordinary.

In the past three days, immersed in getting a practical and effective method of cattle control, the status of the family has risen, and the real priest is more certain, Praia has been excited, excited, did not go out at all, and did not have time to think of it, to teach Xiao Luos method, to order Xiao Luos to cure cattle, to save the whole village, in the eyes of the villagers, Praia, the "master", has long had the attribute of "good person".

Praia could only vaguely feel that when the villagers listened to the teachings, Alta held herself, and Jack came to remind her, all this was unusual and strange.

But he didn't expect that even a few days ago, whether he or other "masters" were talking endlessly, about to fall, and fell off the wooden bridge, the villagers next to him would definitely try everything to hide without a trace.

It's not that the villagers really have a lot of hatred for the "master", it's just that the miserable life of generations tells the villagers that no matter when the "master" is in a happy mood or when the "master" is about to fall into blood and bad luck, the villagers who appear in the "master's" sight are the first choice for happiness or anger most of the time.
