Chapter 135: The Three of Us Whispered
Eugene sighed deeply, then turned his gaze to Sersi to the side, and finally to Kenny, who was angry. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info his eyes twitched and he took a step towards Kenny, Alan reached out to stop him, Kenny shook his head, and Eugene walked up.
"Your Excellency. He whispered, "After you took the helm of Nippur, the people of the city have been very vocal about you, and after that, I used the ancient divination to pray for your blessing and prediction, but the results are a little worrying....." Eugene smacked his mouth, "Divination shows that in the near future, Nipur may encounter unprecedented disasters....."
Kenny's face gradually changed from exhaustion to confusion as Eugene spoke, then to some hesitation, and finally to a face full of consternation. "What else?" he asked in a low voice, "what else do you know?"
"I'm sorry, but that's all there is for now. Eugene replied truthfully, "That's why I wanted to borrow the Mandate of Heaven card." He took two steps back, a hint of pleading in his eyes.
Kenny lowered his eyebrows and fell silent, thinking about what Eugene had just said.
Aiden, who was not far away, clasped his hands and showed a solemn look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Alan could clearly see the change in Aiden's face.
"Uh..... What Elder Eugene had just told the lord looked a little appalling. The golden imp shrugged.
"Seeming?" asked Sersi with a frown, "You can hear them whispering so far away?" he swept the dark night sky and added, "It's not a little windy today!"
"Don't tell us you can really hear me, it makes me and Selbald look like idiots!" Alan pouted, looking Aiden up and down.
"Poof....." Aiden reached out to cover his mouth, "Searle..... Bald?" he struggled to suppress the laugh that the ugly nickname evoked, "It's the funniest nickname I've ever heard, and it reminds me of ....."
Sercy's dark face made Aiden shut his mouth.
Alan cautiously turned his head to look at Sercy, then quickly changed the subject, "Hey, tell me what you just heard, is that damn guy trying to trick Kenny again?"
"It's not like demagoguery, because the arguments sound reasonable. Aiden replied by clearing his throat.
"I'm more concerned about how you heard them, the bastard with the ponytail is right, you made us both look like fools, it's twenty paces away from them, could it be ....." Sersi suddenly remembered something, and then his eyes widened. "Can you lip read?"
"I can't tell, Captain Sercy, you're really well-informed. Aiden smirked, "This is a necessary skill for a qualified forest ranger, because we need to observe the ..... of animals."
"Shut up. Alan interrupted solemnly, "What exactly did Eugene just say to Kenny?"
Aiden pouted in displeasure, "Eugene just said that after the lord took charge of Nippur, the people of the city appreciated his new policy, so he used an ancient divination technique to help the lord predict the future, but the result was astonishing, he said that he foresaw that Nipur would encounter an unprecedented disaster, the time is unpredictable, but it is certain that this will happen during the lord's reign, this is the reason why he borrowed the Mandate of Heaven card, he wants to find out, what the disaster is." ”
"Damn old thing!" Alan gritted his teeth as he looked at Eugene not far away, "He's already made a mess of things, and he's still bewitching Kenny, and the first thing I should have done when I woke up was to go to jail and kill him!"
Sersi shook her head. "It's not as simple as you think," he analyzed, "and this group of people down there must have been instigated by the old nobles, and if Eugene dies in prison, the lord will lose nearly half of his supporters overnight." Believe me, don't underestimate that temple, its power is far stronger than the chamber of commerce in Nipur City, or the nobles with fertile fiefdoms!"
"Hey, man, you don't have to teach that. Alan faked a handkerchief and handed it to Sercy, "Wipe the oil off your mouth, eat a bastard." ”
"What?" Aiden looked at the two of them suspiciously, "You think Eugene is bewitching the lord?"
"Isn't it?" Alan disagreed.
Aiden rolled his eyes back and forth at the two of them, he speculated for a moment, then turned his head to look at the lord who was thinking, and then said in an almost conclusive tone, " I don't think Eugene is lying, after arresting him, the lord sent me to search the monastery, and in addition to proving that the monk of the monastery did have the duty of taking in the living beings, it was also confirmed that he had no intention of harming the lord, if one monk could not prove it, the confessions of nearly a hundred monks were almost identical, and Eugene even mentioned the lord in the morning class, saying that he was the wisest lord of Nippur so far, and all these guys who were meditating in front of us can testify. ”
This only proves that Eugene did not instruct the demon to harm Kenny, and perhaps, it was indeed an accident that day. Alan commented.
"But he didn't harm the lord in the first place, and he won't have bad intentions now, if those words are demagoguery, he doesn't need to make any extraneous troubles, the lord has already forgiven him, hasn't he?" Aiden corrected quickly.
Alan and Sersi looked at Aiden at the same time, and a suspicious look appeared on their faces.
"Boy, you're a little weird today. Alan was the first to speak.
"Definitely. Sersi frowned, "Why are you talking for Eugene? Could it be that he promised you to pick a nun at the seminary?"
"Hey, what are you thinking?" Aiden immediately denied, "I'm just analyzing what the old guy just said, it's all for the sake of the lord." ”
"Don't get excited, man. Alan reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "You look more like you have a ghost in your heart, haha-"
"Hey, you three!" shouted Kenny, who was not far away, "What are you discussing?" he walked up to the three and asked with a tired wink, "Got a result?"
"What are you talking about?" said Alan.
"Of course, it's about the trial of Eugene, weren't you just discussing it?"
"Judge, haven't you already decided to release him?" Allen's tone was a little unexpected, "You're not going to whip him here, are you?" he gestured to the crowd gathered at the bottom of the steps, "They're all watching, I don't want to crush the mob overnight!"
"I'm just going to confirm your opinion one last time, .....after all," Kenny paused, "that old fellow almost killed you." ”
"If I had a different time and place, I would have killed him. Alan looked at Eugene not far away, and then turned his gaze back to Kenny, "But for the sake of your reputation now, after all, we are grasshoppers on a rope now." ”
"I thank you on behalf of all the citizens of Nipur. Kenny smiled heartily and turned to the side of the steps. (To be continued.) )
