Chapter 82: Sleepiness and Pillows
......
Hearing this, Langdon and the others' eyes lit up, and they immediately stood up and knelt under the idol, with a fanatical expression: "Templar Langdon/Templar Ian/Templar Marcy/Priest Harry/Priest Susan/Priest...... Kneel down to greet the oracle. ”
The new mayor Angus was stunned for a moment, then reacted quickly and quickly knelt down behind everyone.
For a while, the atmosphere in the entire hall became extremely solemn.
Catherina stood up and walked over to the silver statue and read the oracle with a solemn expression: "The glory of God cannot be confined to one town or one place. Let us spread our faith to the surrounding towns as soon as possible, so that more people can have the opportunity to bathe in the grace of God. But my Lord is merciful and sympathetic to the people of the faithful, and hopes that we can spread the faith while preserving our own strength as much as possible, and avoid unnecessary casualties. ”
"We obey the oracle of our lord. ”
Langdon and the others responded respectfully, but their hearts were moved and guilty.
If it weren't for the fact that their current strength is too weak, how could the Lord of Light not even forget to tell them to pay attention to safety when he passed down the oracle? It's all because they are too useless~
"Okay, let's all get up~"
Catherina, the Holy Maiden of Light, slowly walked back to the main seat and continued to preside over the meeting: "Now, let's start discussing how to break through the blockade and spread the faith to other towns. ”
Hearing this, Wu Hui also cheered up and began to observe their meeting. Breaking through Viscount Connor's blockade and spreading the faith is the most important thing at the moment.
And because of the oracle, no one raised objections to breaking the blockade this time, but the situation is still grim. Several people discussed for a long time, but they did not come up with a feasible solution.
"It really didn't work, we had to go out of the mountains. The Templar Marcy reluctantly suggested, "Viscount Connor can't lock down the entire mountain range. ”
"No, I can't. Langdon shook his head and vetoed directly, "There are many demonic beasts in the mountains, and there are ghosts entrenched, even if we can barely get out of a way with our strength, the movement is too big, and we will definitely be discovered." ”
As soon as these words came out, Marcy suddenly stopped talking.
Everyone was at a loss and didn't speak for a while.
Wu Hui's mood was a little solemn.
Although the Gelug region is a food-producing area, there are still many necessities that must be obtained by trading with the outside world, and it is not a matter of staying locked down. Whether it is for the sake of the spread of faith or for the stability of the Gelug region itself, the blockade must also be broken.
Just when everyone was at a loss, the voice of the guard suddenly came from outside: "Report to Her Highness the Holy Maiden, Your Excellency Bert asks to see you." ”
"Bert?" the Holy Maiden of Light frowned slightly, she remembered that Bert was one of Knight Horn's cavalry servants, one of the instructors sent by Knight Horn to train the army.
Moreover, this cavalryman is very devout in his belief in the Lord of Light.
"Ask him to come in. ”
Soon, a muscular Bert walked into the council chamber with a thin man tied with a rope in his hand.
Bert threw the emaciated man to the side, and bowed to the Holy Maiden of Light: "Believer Bert, meet Her Highness the Holy Maiden." ”
"Instructor Bert doesn't need to be polite. The Holy Maiden of Light looked at the emaciated man who was tied up and thrown aside with slightly strange eyes, and asked suspiciously, "Is this ......?"
"Your Highness, this is a profiteer. Bert glared angrily at him and said, "I just saw him selling salt and other supplies in the market, desperately driving up prices, and squeezing the last copper plate in the pockets of civilians, so I arrested him." ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the surrounding members of the Bright Sect changed, and they looked at the emaciated man with murderous intent.
"Wronged, wronged, Your Highness the Holy Maiden. The emaciated man who was bound had a look of fear on his face, but his eyes rolled a few times, and he cried out that he was wronged, "I am just an ordinary merchant, selling goods according to normal profits." ”
"Normal profit?" said Bert with an angry laugh, "Hehe, you sell ten times the price is also a normal profit? ”
It was also at this time.
Wu Hui, who had just repaired the crystal wall of the Kingdom of God, and whose remaining divine power was already very scarce, was watching the meeting of the Holy Maidens through the Eye of God.
Originally, I was afraid that the saints would act too impulsively, and they would really be in trouble if they were reckless in order to spread their faith.
Unexpectedly, I happened to see this scene.
As soon as he heard the word burn, Wu Hui almost spurted to death with a mouthful of old blood, although the profiteers who took advantage of the fire to rob were hateful, they couldn't reach the point of burning to death at every turn, right?
It seems that it is necessary to slowly refine the law of light.
Any evil and crime must be of varying severity and should be punished to varying degrees depending on the severity of the crime.
This idea of burning to death at every turn is too much pressure for Wu Hui, a traverser, and he can't accept it in his heart.
"Wronged, Your Highness. When the emaciated man heard that he was going to be burned to death, he panicked, "I really made a reasonable profit, and in this situation, I am taking a huge risk by transporting goods from outside." It's reasonable to earn more, and it's reasonable to earn more......"
Outside transporting goods in?
The Holy Maiden's eyes lit up, and she asked, "You said that your goods were brought in from outside, tell me, how did you bypass those blockades?"
"This ......" The emaciated man hesitated for a moment, his eyes rolling.
"Say!" rebuked Pastor Susan, "if you don't say it, I'll burn you to death." ”
The emaciated man's whole body was agitated, and he hurriedly said, "I said, I said, don't burn me." I have a secret passage to the outside world. ”
Wu Hui was speechless for a while, although he resisted the act of burning at the stake at every turn. But I have to admit that the deterrent effect of burning at the stake is still very great.
If this guy had only whipped him or imprisoned, he would not have been able to reveal the information so happily.
And the people in the Holy See of Light were still worrying about how to break through the blockade just now.
When I heard this now, my eyes immediately lit up.
Even Wu Hui, who listened with the Eye of God, was a little surprised, this wave of luck is good, in the Chinese language of the earth, it is called drowsy and sending pillows.
The big guys were worried about how to break through Viscount Connor's blockade line without conflict, and as a result, the profiteer sent a huge amount of information.
"If what you say is true. The Holy Maiden of Light was overjoyed and said majestically, "This Holy Maiden spared you from being burned at the stake for your merits, and only served for three years as a punishment." ”
When the profiteer heard that there was no need to be burned at the stake, he was immediately pleasantly surprised, and thanked the Holy Maiden of Light for his great grace.
That appearance made Wu Hui laugh in his heart, and he felt that sometimes the strictness of the law may not be ineffective. If those profiteers on the earth who take advantage of the disaster to coax people's livelihood materials such as clothing, food, shelter and transportation will also be tied to the stake and roasted, it is estimated that no one will dare to risk the condemnation of the world.
It is estimated that ordinary people can afford to buy a house.
Knowing that there was a secret passage that could lead to the outside world, the stone in Wu Hui's heart could be regarded as falling to the ground, and his mood was much more relaxed.
