Chapter 38: The Past (2)

Another three years passed. Just when Smith thought that this good life would go on forever, bad news came from the city of Wisney. The Bishop of Nice, one of the three bishops, has returned to the arms of the Lord and is heading to Heaven. As the city's supreme leader, Smith had to stop his activities and return to Wisney to officiate at the funeral.

In the sparse drizzle, the body of the Bishop of Nice was solemnly placed in the church cemetery. After the Bishop of Nice, Smith did not leave the city of Vesny for the time being, and the cause of the old bishop's death was nothing else, but that he had reached the end of his life and died of old age.

As the saying goes, a rabbit dies and a fox is sad, and although he and the Bishop of Nice have not had much friendship, when the two of them have worked together in the city of Vesny for nine years and have become friends with each other, such an old friend has passed away like this, which really saddened Smith's heart.

As a result, the matter of inheritance and mastery, which he had long forgotten, was remembered by him again. After thinking about it for a long time, he had an idea in his mind.

If he can find a disciple who is suitable for him within five years, then he will do his best to cultivate him, if he can't find it within five years, then he will not have the energy to cultivate another disciple, so he simply gives this exercise to the church and let future generations of destined people learn it.

With this in mind, Smith began not to leave Wisney City and kept a close eye on the young believers who had just joined the Church.

After the death of the bishop of Nice, the other two bishops, feeling that their time was numbered, gave Smith a record of what they had in their possession, asking him to find a good disciple for them, and after doing so. They left the church and returned home, quietly waiting for the time to return to Heaven, accompanied by his wife and children, with Bishop Narangli passing away first, followed by Bishop Modoli.

As Smith grieved by the successive deaths of the old bishops, the desire to find disciples intensified. To that end, he changed the five-year period to three years.

Wow, wow, wow!

Father Nolito, who was explaining the Scriptures to a group of young believers who had just joined the church, heard a baby crying. Following the source of the sound, I saw a pink baby lying in a bamboo basket, the bamboo basket was floating on the lake, and she must have just woken up from sleep when she looked sleepy. Seeing this, Nolito hurriedly released his magic power and lifted the small bamboo basket from the lake to the island. Then he released a light magic resting spell, so that the baby would not cry and sleep peacefully.

He first examined the baby with his mental powers, and found that the baby had no birth defects, which made him wonder why her parents had abandoned such an able-bodied child? Pulling out the letter, Nolito read it carefully. The letter was not long, and Nolito finished reading it in a while, but after reading it, he was even more puzzled.

The letter said that the baby was a girl, her name was Li Xuan, and her parents were both teachers, but they both died in the fight with the enemy, and in order not to cut off their blood, they sent the child out of the river, and the latter words were to hope that the person who picked her up would treat her well and not let her avenge her parents.

The second half of the letter is very touching, but the previous article said that Li Xuan's parents are both teachers, which makes Nolito a little confused. You must know that the clergy are rarely married, and when they do, they will definitely hold celebrations throughout the city, but in the past ten years, there has been no such celebration in Wisney City. Could it be that the couple had been married long ago and had a child much later? Nolito could not judge, and he decided to report the matter to Archbishop Smith, since the death of two clergy was a great deal for a church institution other than the Inquisition.

The three-year period has arrived, and the famous "Soul Breaker" still hasn't found his own disciple, which makes him regret and feel helpless at the same time, since the time is up, he is ready to leave Vesni City, go to Yehe City, and hand over his mastery to the church headquarters, so that they can find suitable teachers to pass on for themselves. Just as he was about to leave, a voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Your Excellency, my subordinate Nolito asks to see me. When Smith heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, when did this Nolito priest look for him badly, but at this time, he had planned to drink him back directly. But for some reason, he sent Nolito in to meet him, the door opened, Nolito was holding a baby, holding a letter in his hand, "Archbishop, this is ........." Nolito was just halfway through his words, he found that the archbishop was staring at the baby in his hand with bright eyes. There are not many things that can make this archbishop, who has seen the world before, look so surprised. For example, discovering one's own disciples.

Just as Nolito came in, Smith gently swept his telekinesis over the baby in his hand, which was an ordinary action, but when this telekinesis swept over the baby, Smith actually felt the slightest hint of resistance, although it did not affect him, but! It was just an infantile instinctive reaction! He, an archbishop who had been practicing for decades, could feel a hint of resistance from a baby. What does this mean? The baby's innate mental power is far beyond that of ordinary people, and it is not more than a little bit, and as for how much, it is up to Smith to find out. Smith whispered, and the baby floated from Nolito's hand into Smith's arms, and he ignored Nolito's strange eyes. Stretching out the ring finger of his right hand, he gently touched the baby's forehead, and in an instant, a mental power that was not weaker than that of an ordinary priest gushed out. Seeing this, Smith felt a crush to stop casting. He hugged the baby tightly and looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Hahaha

Seeing this, Nolito also understood the sudden abnormal behavior of this always indifferent archbishop today, and he immediately smiled and said: "Congratulations, congratulations, my lord, if you can accept the second highest disciple, presumably your master's mastery will not be lost in the world." Hearing Nolito's congratulatory words, Smith remembered that there was another person beside him.

Then he returned to his usual composure, "Father Nolito, I have to thank you for accepting this master." Nolito shook his head, "My lord, this matter is not the work of his subordinates, you will know it after reading this letter. As he spoke, he handed the letter in his hand.

Smith took the letter and quickly read it. "I didn't want to take her to be such a hard-working child. Alas, from now on you will be my granddaughter, child. As he spoke, Smith gently stroked Li Xuan's forehead. His eyes were full of love.

"Nolito, you go down first, I will handle the person who tracks down the murderer, you take my hand and go to get sixty magic stones, this is also a reward for your merit." With that, Smith disappeared from Nolito, and Nolito left the room with a smile on his face to collect his magic stone.

In the castle behind the church church, Smith was looking at the letter in his hand with a cold face, and he sensed that the letter was not simple when Nolito handed it to him. The letter was written on the surface, but the secret letter that conveyed the true intention had to be read in a special way, and Smith, who himself majored in soul arts, could see through the contents of the letter at a glance. It is true that both parents of this child are dead, but her parents are not clergy, but members of the Calais Church!
