Xiao Yan felt that he could fit into this era, but this era would always tell Xiao Yan with cold reality inadvertently that this was the Middle Ages, and even if history changed, it was still the Middle Ages.

Looking at the dozen or so vivid stone sculptures placed around this hall, without Lan Luo Adams's reminder, Xiao Yan would not have imagined that these stone carvings were actually human skeletons. The movements of these stone sculptures were not stiff, and the expressions on their faces were very natural, and there was no pain at all, as if they had suddenly been petrified into what they were now at the most normal time.

"Even Medusa's petrified rays are probably not so delicate."

Xiao Yan secretly commented in his mind, and he looked up to the count who stood motionless on the steps of the castle. Although this is a magical Middle Ages, it will not be too difficult to turn a human into a stone statue so normally. At least at Xiao Yan's current level of level 6, he can't do this.

Lan Luo Adams bowed to the Earl from afar, and took Xiao Yan with him. As a merchant of the Chamber of Commerce, he could only participate in jewelry fairs on the periphery of the hall, and was not qualified to enter the hall or even walk in front of the Count. If this kind of thing were in Genoa or Turin, it would be impossible to imagine that in those Italian ports, merchants were everything. However, the nobility of the Holy Roman Empire was not so philistine ...... here, perhaps.

Xiao Yan could see Count Murathuo turn his head very slightly and nodded to this side, which was already the greatest kindness of a nobleman. After that, Xiao Yan was taken aside by Lan Luo Adams. Go see the gemstones from Africa and Asia. Rough stone. Some aristocratic women behind Xiao Yan walked to the earl's side. After performing aristocratic etiquette, the women laughed and walked into the depths of the glorious hall.

"What do you think?"

Lan Luo Adams took Xiao Yan around a U-shaped booth, then stepped aside and asked in a low voice.

Perhaps because this is the Earl's Court, the fair is not as lively as it is in the market, and most of the heads of the chambers of commerce quietly look at the exhibits and whisper to the side.

Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "No, the light is too dim." The color will change. And the cut and transparency of the gemstone are not visible, so it is difficult to judge here. ”

Lan Ro Adams shrugged his shoulders and said, "So the best gems are always on display in the Earl's Court at this time." This is the Earl's rule. ”

Xiao Yan smiled slightly, in this environment, it is easy to blindly consume and impulsively consume, and every consumption has to pay 20% of the tax to the Earl's Court. Piaget, of course, was reluctant to let such a transaction shine in the light of day, when the buyer and seller knew better what the gems were actually worth, and then the Count would be able to get much less tax.

"If possible, I prefer the turquoise from Constantinople. I want to, though. The Dolan Chamber of Commerce would never choose just one piece of turquoise. ”

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Lan Luo Adams smiled. Turning his head to Count Murathu, he said, "If we want to buy turquoise, we don't need to come to this place. Now that I've arrived at this place, I'm ready to be fooled. ”

Of course, Xiao Yan understood this meaning, and the Dolan Chamber of Commerce deliberately deceived Count Mutura in exchange for other benefits, such as easier actions in this town, etc. Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's heart moved slightly, and asked, "Actually, we didn't come today to find the real thing, right?" ”

Lan Luo Adams glanced at Xiao Yan in surprise, then nodded and said, "It seems that your senses are very keen. That's right, one of these gems belongs to the Earl. Whoever is able to buy this gem can ask the Earl to do something, and of course, this gem may also be real or fake, without any hint. So we can't say that we don't come today for the real thing, but that we need to use our brains more in the purchase of gemstones. ”

Xiao Yan nodded and glanced at the earl again. At this moment, there was a sudden confusion in the passage, and immediately afterwards, a group of white-robed priestesses walked in, their white skull crosses were very conspicuous, especially in the light of the fire in the castle. Unlike the crosses that Xiao Yan saw on Sylvia's fluctuating chest, the crosses worn by these priestesses were larger, consisting of thirteen skeletons of different sizes and seven holy swords, while Sylvia's cross had only three skulls, one directly above, one below the cross, and one in the middle, and the rest of the cross was composed of pine branches.

Seeing the arrival of these priestesses, even Count Murathu, who had been silent, was shocked, and he took two steps forward, stopped outside the guard range of these priestesses, and asked, "How can I help you?" Distinguished ladies and gentlemen. ”

The clergywomen did not answer the question immediately, but stood there quietly, waiting for more and more clergywomen to come out of the passage. It was not until there were more than thirty of them, and the entire passage was almost blocked, that one of the short priestesses separated the group and walked before the count.

"Praise the Lord and the Emperor, and may the law be with you." Her voice was a little deep, and unlike the other priestesses, there seemed to be an inscription on the white skull cross on this low priestess. Seeing the count's somewhat confused expression, the priestess continued, "We feel the deviation of the law, my lord, we want to stay in this city for a while. For this reason, we have to turn to you for help, hoping to be able to get adequate provisions and rest from you. ”

Although the words are talking about asking for help, the attitude of this priestess does not look like asking for help for a day, but a picture of what it should be, and it is like this.

Count Muratus did not feel insulted by the attitude of the priestess, and he even squeezed out a partial smile to show his feelings, and at the same time nodded, "Of course, it is an honor." ”

Watching the Earl introduce these new priestesses into the hall, Lan Luo Adams, who was standing beside Xiao Yan, whispered, "Hey, look who they are?" The main force of the Law Correction Court, one of the three giants of the Law Correction Sect, has all come here. What do you think of the city? ”

Xiao Yan frowned and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know any of this, what kind of law correction court, etc., I don't know anything about it." ”

"Where the hell did you come from? Palin? Even those merchants in Byzantium knew the name of the Corrective Court of the Law of the Dao. Well, seeing that you are so confused, taking advantage of the fact that the transaction has not yet started, I will say it briefly. The full name of the Correction Court is the Correction of the Correction of the Rules, which is a direct institution of the Stuttgart Women's Monastery, formerly known as the Honorian Apprenticeship Association. They were mainly responsible for checking and correcting the laws that deviated from the entire Holy Roman Empire, who knows what the thing called the law was, and they were authorized by the emperor, so they had a fairly high authority to act, and if necessary, even the local guard knights had to obey them. ”

After a pause, Lan Luo Adams lowered his voice again and said, "The most important thing is that they, I am the action team of the Law Correction Court, the Law Correction Faction. They have a lot of power you can't imagine. Do not doubt this, although this knowledge is a secret to some nobles. The Correction Sect belonged to the Stuttgart Women's Monastery and was formed by the two maidservants of the saints, Debella and Aishna, two seers of the Red Dragon. And the chastity I just mentioned belongs to the world, and was established by Princess Agatha, the daughter of Henry II and never married. The relationship between these two factions has been good and bad, but there is one important point, and that is that they determine the future of the empire. ”

"The Empress must be chosen alternately from among the Chastity Council or the Corrections, a secret rule that the Holy Roman Emperor must observe. If the empress is from the Guardian Society, then the emperor's daughter who has the right to inherit must enter the Correction faction, and vice versa. In other words, it is very likely that there are one or two people in the middle of the correction faction that you see now who have royal blood, or even royal daughters, and the same is true of the Shouzhen Society. ”

Xiao Yan was slightly stunned and asked, "Shouzhen Society, I mean it, what is it guarding?" ”

"Chastity before marriage, chastity after marriage. The Chastity Society does not reject marriage, but abhors all nonchastity outside of marriage. That's what I'm warning you about, you can hook up with women who join secret societies, but be careful not to get caught by the Guardians. ”

After saying this, Lan Luo Adams shook his head slightly in confusion. He didn't want to say this, at least not in such detail, because a lot of information was exchanged for his life. But I don't know what Lu Dao is for, when he stood next to this young man in his thirties, he still couldn't help but say it.

The charismatic Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders, he didn't have any plans to hook up with any woman in this world, and Yenoor, the defender of the laws of this world, didn't know where Lu Dao was looking at him coldly. If you want to live comfortably, then it's best to settle down.

At this moment, confusion broke out again, and when Count Muratto came out of the hall, a dozen priestesses of the Stuttgart Holy Choir had already appeared. They saluted the Count and then said, "Praise be to the Lord and His Majesty the Emperor, and may the Lord watch over you, praise." ”

Count Muratus returned the salute and replied, "Praise the Lord for his care of me, praise." Your presence is very welcome, and my two daughters have been desperate for your blessings and confessions, and they may have stored too many words to say in these two days. Come with me, and my daughters will cry out with joy when they see you. (To be continued......)
