The blonde knight stood wistfully on the commercial street of Tournest.
On the day of the martyrdom of Saint Bliss, it is customary to fast for five days, to eat salted fish together, to have separate rooms between husband and wife, and to pray abstinently in remembrance of the saint so that they may ascend to heaven early.
Routinely......
The situation now is that the shopping street is as lively as the days of fasting, no, it is more lively than usual.
Everyone came to buy the bishop's Kaiguang pork and Kaiguang lamb chops......
This made the knight very melancholy.
No, he was not upset because the bishop dared to sell pork during Lent, no, he was not saddened because the bishop was charging consecration fees in the name of consecration, and he was not angry that the bishop ordered him to beat anyone who dared to sell pork without his consecration during Lent.
The Crusaders in the name of exterminating the pagans were no less robbing Christian countries for money, and the bishop asked the merchants for a few consecration fees for his vestments!
Those who think that the bishop is full of bad water because of these things are naïve Chinese in China, who are accustomed to thousands of years of secular government rule and have no idea what religion, religious beliefs, theocracy and so on are all about.
The people who dared to buy the bishop's consecrated pork without paying for it were all dragged to hang themselves in order to meet the standards of saints in the era of religious rule......
Hundreds of years after the Middle Ages, there are still people who promote that "charging additional poll taxes to pagans who believe in the same god but different sects instead of cutting them all off" is a sign of "peace, tolerance, and progress", and it is to promote the tolerance and superiority of this practice to the Chinese who have never killed and robbed ** in the name of religion - then, in the context of the Middle Ages, providing additional business, just charging a small opening fee, and those who do not pay do not cut off their heads but just lightly beat, this can also be called a bad stomach?
No, this is simply the Virgin of Mercy!
Yes, the knight was not so sad because he found the bishop in a bad stomach—though he was a little unaccustomed to being more merciful than he thought—but because he had not beaten a heretic who dared to sell pork without the bishop's consecration during Lent.
There is no rule in the world that there are fools who have extra business to do, and are reluctant to pay a small amount of money, and to risk offending those in power, but it is impossible for such a person to be a businessman.
During the five-day fast, the knight beat only one guy.
In the name of "you shouldn't sell pork dumplings during Lent", that guy obstructed the dumpling shop that had already paid the opening fee from doing business.
This daring to disrupt the order of the market was keenly detected by Tim, who was in charge of managing the market, and then informed the knight to immediately suppress it by force.
Alas, in five days only one unknown heretic was beaten.
The knight is idle and moldy.
The bishop felt that he could solve the problem.
After a few days of calm thinking, the bishop found that he had found the wrong person, and let the demon king whose personal strength was not as good as his own add weapons to himself, wasn't he going to a fish shop to buy meat?
Isn't there a wonderful master in front of you now!
The bishop solemnly made a request to his knight to "learn combat skills", and the knight ...... His blue eyes looked at the young bishop, who was only up to his shoulder, and replied with great seriousness, earnestness, and sincerity:
"Don't worry, I'll protect you."
It took the bishop a lot of effort to swallow the liter of blood he had almost vomited back into his stomach.
