"Hain, have you really decided?" asked Archbishop Clarence, a little reluctantly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Yes, Lord Bishop, I have already decided, I will leave with Princess Aiyi, thank you for your appreciation. Hain bowed and thanked.
"Well, well, then I wish you all the best, and I hope you arrive safely in the royal city of Aden. Clarence said with a cross.
"Thank you. "I'm just as grateful.
After leaving the Strange Rock, the group continued north and embarked on a new journey, accompanied by DeHarut, Credier, Hayne, Shalena, and Yale.
In the evening, we came to a small village called Rune, and when we saw that we were dressed in church clothes, the villagers were very enthusiastic, and the village chief personally greeted us at the entrance of the village.
"Miss Aiyi, welcome to you, your visit is an honor for us at Rune. The village chief enthusiastically picked up the red wine and toasted.
"Village elder, you have won the award, and we are just passing by, so I'm really sorry to disturb your life. I said politely.
"Where, is Miss Aiyi going to Ou Rui?" asked the village chief enthusiastically.
"Well, I'm passing through Ou Rui's territory. I said truthfully.
"The lord of Ou Rui is also a believer in the Holy See of Light, and you will definitely be very welcome when you pass through there. The village chief said with a smile.
"Thank you, you were so gracious. ”
With the warm hospitality of the village chief, we enjoyed a sumptuous dinner.
After I had eaten and drunk, I was left at his residence by the enthusiastic village elder, and for several days I would be warmly welcomed by the village chief, which made me feel a little embarrassed.
"Village Elder, do you need our help with anything? If so, please tell me directly, you have embarrassed my holy daughter by spending money like this. I asked straight to the point.
Hearing me say this, the village chief pondered for a while, and then raised his head, "Miss Aiyi, I won't tell you, I really have something to ask for you. ”
"I'll just say, you must have something, you say, if we can help, we won't refuse. I said with a smile.
"And it came to pass that we have a very bad custom in our village of Rune and the surrounding villages, if someone in one village is killed by someone from another village, then the people of the victim's village will gather together to seek revenge on the murderer's village, and they will not stop until they kill more, so that the people in the murderer's village will gather more people and kill them again.
Nine times out of ten, people are killed in vendettas, the farmland is wasted, and there is unnecessary bloodshed, so I would like to ask you to come forward as a church and help us stop the vendetta and we all want to live a peaceful and stable life. At the end, the old village chief took my hand with tears in his eyes.
It turns out that this old man is petitioning for his villagers, and I naturally have no reason to refuse this kind of request.
"Well, uncle, I promise you about this matter, I will definitely find a way to deal with it, please believe me. I comforted the village elder.
"Then on behalf of the villagers of Rune, thank you, Miss Aiyi, you are truly an angel, our gospel. The village elder and the surrounding villagers all knelt down.
"Uncle, don't, don't do this, get up quickly, this is what I should do, please get up. I said anxiously, and quickly helped the village elder up.
In the evening, I summoned Diharut, Credir, Hain, Shalena, and Yale to the village chief's house for a short meeting.
"I think everyone knows the request of the village elder, for this matter, I have no other choice, I promised the village elder and all the villagers, we must find a way to do it, but, how to do it, I hope you can help me think of a way. "I made it clear that I must help with this favor, so we don't want to discuss this issue, we just need to discuss how to help.
"Princess Aiyi, your choice in this matter is beyond reproach, but if you rush to other villages, I am afraid it will be more dangerous, so I suggest that it is more appropriate for me to go with you. Credier suggested.
"Since we want to ensure the safety of Her Royal Highness, we might as well go together, wouldn't that be safer?" Hain asked rhetorically.
"That's not appropriate, I think it's more appropriate for Aiyi to go alone, if we all go, in case it causes misunderstanding in the neighboring villages, I'm afraid it will cause more trouble. Diharut suggested.
"How can that be? In case Her Royal Highness the Princess is in danger, what should it be?" Hain said excitedly.
"I think what Di Harut said makes sense, it would be more appropriate for me to go myself, after all, to mediate, not to demonstrate, if you all follow, maybe people in other villages will mistakenly think that we are going to help Rune Village to conquer other villages, which is not conducive to everyone's unity. I said.
"But... Hain said in a tangled voice.
"I support Princess Aiyi's decision, however, I can go with Her Royal Highness, so that I can protect the princess at a critical moment and not cause misunderstanding between them. Sister Salena said from the side.
DeHarut nodded, "Well, I think Miss Salena has a point. ”
"If that's the case, it seems like we can give it a try, but we also need to be prepared to deal with the unexpected. Credier suggested.
"Well, Ai Yi and Miss Shalena will go to the nearby village of Gollum tomorrow, and I will wait at the border of the village with Master Credir, Hain, and Yale, and if Princess Ai and Miss Shalena don't come back by the evening, we will have to take coercive action. Diharut suggested.
"Yes, well, I agree. Hayne said.
"I agree. Credier raised his hand in agreement.
"I'm in favor of it too. Yale followed.
"That's it, Sister Salena and I will go to Gollum Village early tomorrow morning. I said with a smile.
"Yes. Sister Salena smiled and nodded.
The next morning, we drove in a wagon to the neighboring village of Gollum, where DeHarut, Credier, Hain, and Yale stopped at the edge of the village.
"If there is a special situation, throw this magic ball into the air, and we will know where you are in time. "Hayne gave me a magic ball.
"Yes. I nodded, and followed the carriage to Gollum Village.
