When the priest ran to inform the bishop, he was in the cellar under the church, with Luo Yi and the others.

The cellar was from ancient times, and had been greatly enlarged by the previous Bishop of Turnest (which seems to have been one of his few changes to the church as a whole), and when the new bishop was a child ministering to the previous bishop, he had heard from the servants who served the church that the cellar was full of barrels, cheese, bacon and other good things, and when he took over it was empty, but from some traces of what was left of the servants, the servants were not bragging. It's just that the old bishop took away all the wealth that was not registered in the church books when he left.

When they examined the traces, they also found a hidden crypt at the end of the cellar, which contained several sarcophagi, which everyone thought were the resting place of the clergy of the ancient church, so they did not dare to disturb them, and left the coffins in their place.

After the new bishop took over, the cellar was always empty, because the old bishop had emptied not only the ground, but also many empty rooms on the ground, which could hold the things sent by the baroness, and it was far more convenient to use than the basement, so they kept the cellar as it was when the bishop took over.

Now the church was filled with offerings from pilgrims from all over the world, and it was renovated that even the municipal staff had to move to the square at the entrance of the church, so when the baroness brought a new big thing to be placed in the apse, which had not yet been built, the bishop remembered the empty cellar.

This time, Luo Yi sent nothing else, a three-dimensional map of the whole diocese of Turnest.

Of course, this three-dimensional map cannot be compared with the ultra-luxurious version in the underground palace of Qin Shi Huang, which has neither the sun, moon and stars made of pearls. There are no rivers, lakes and seas made of mercury, and the whole piece is made of the special sandstone produced in the Red Mountain. Wherever there are towns, villages, beacons, or other special structures, small wooden models are placed. Those models are rough because it's practical and not ornamental.

There is a dug river on the map. A small wooden waterwheel was placed at the end to control the flow of water. There is also a door-shaped iron frame flying over it, on which hangs a small pulley, under which is a semicircular oil lamp made of clear glass.

"The sun?"

Luo Yi nodded, this later addition may not be very useful, but from the famous battle of Hannibal, it seems that the direction of the sun is worth considering - they may all know, but adding such a device does not cost a few dollars, so why be stingy in this regard?

This map was intended for them to be used as a military map. It was so large that it was impossible to move the flag and the centaur model in the center of the map by leaning over and reaching it, and it was necessary to use a rod-like device, as in the movie "The Eagle Over London".

Even so, according to the Baroness, it was still the crudest model, because several of the aristocratic territories had not yet been able to access their gauge carts and other tools, and had to rely on the estimation of foot traders, like the British spies who secretly surveyed and mapped Tibet before the liberation. Trained people can take exactly how many steps as a mile, and then calculate the steps to get the mileage--but Luo Yi's subordinates don't have such a skilled spy talent for the time being, so they can only paint those places with other colors. Indicates "Not yet accurately mapped".

Luo Yi sighed, in fact, what they needed most was the territory information of these stubborn nobles, but this map was crude. They can also continue to make modifications.

At this time, a priest ran in. Sue sù Bishop, his cousin came.

Luo Yi saw the bishop's eyelids jump. "What's his name? Where are the people? Where did you come from? Does anyone prove it? He asked in a tone toward the priest.

"His name is Wolf, and he is from our city of Turnest, and he only got off the dock today, and he came to worship St. Aubrey with a Jeffrey priest. Someone already recognized him just now, it was your neighbor when you were a child. The priest replied respectfully.

"Huh." The bishop was silent for a moment, and then he said to the priest, "Ask him to come to my office for a moment, give him everything he needs, tell him that I have someone here, and I will meet him at once the meeting is over." ”

After sending away the messenger, the bishop leaned back, as if to collect his feelings, the expression of a man who had encountered unpleasantness and had to deal with it.

He also has a cousin! -- Several people in the room thought so.

And it didn't seem like the two of them were getting along very well, they thought to themselves.

"The others please go out first, and the Baroness please stay." The bishop said.

When there were only the two of them left, Luo Yi couldn't suppress her curiosity: "You never told me that you also have a cousin!" ”

"We haven't seen each other in more than a decade."

"Huh?"

"He was my aunt's son, three years older than me," the bishop reminisced, "and he was a widow who had never met his father. I heard from a neighbor that his father died in a storm while he was out at sea, and I don't know what he did, and the family never talked about him. His mother, my aunt, died when he was six years old, and my mother took him into my home to raise him. ”

He paused, apparently remembering something unpleasant: "My mother sees him as her own - in fact, sometimes I think he is my mother's son - he is very religious, the kind of piety that my father and I have never figured out - I have always preferred to watch my father trade or fight with a knife rather than to read prayers and attend the sacraments with my mother...... The paths of the two of us were different from the beginning......"

Ironically, in the end, it was he, an opportunist who was not pious at first, and later sold his soul to the devil, became a high bishop.

"Two years before my parents died of the plague, he vowed to serve God all his life, and my mother begged my predecessor to write him a recommendation, which was intended to send him to St. Fred's Abbey, when a Geoffrey priest was going to visit St. Gorry's Abbey in St. Omer and needed a young man to serve with him, and my predecessor persuaded my mother to let him go with the priest first to test his faith—I haven't seen him since."

After saying this, he looked up again: "Oh, I hope it's a liar!" (To be continued......)
