Chapter Twenty-Five: Kervir and Christina
readx; This time, there was no one waiting for them at the gate of the Taji gathering point, and Peter led the group behind him to inquire about the two soldiers before entering. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The two soldiers waiting at the door shouted kindly at Peter's distant back: "Father Kerver has been waiting for you in the central church for a long time, go and visit quickly, or Father Kerver will not be very impressed with you." ”
Peter turned back to the soldier and nodded gratefully, and suddenly thought that Taji wasn't as terrible as Fernandez and Father Eddie had said.
He discussed it with Eva, and Wren held his head high and looked at the sky and did not participate in their discussion, Peter knew that this person's temper had directly ignored him, and Wren was not angry. For so many days, he and Peter Eva got along very well, and felt that the relationship had gone further, and he had a very intuitive understanding of these two people, knowing that the other party would not do any dangerous behavior, so he basically didn't say a word about this kind of dispensable discussion in a general sense.
After some discussion, Peter and Eva were still more concerned about the kind reminder of the soldier just now, so they did not go to the hotel to rest first, even if it was late at this time. Instead, they came directly to the church of the most visible building in the Taji Gathering Point.
This church is much grander than Padge's. If Peggy's church could see it, I'd probably hate Father Eddie in my heart.
Peter looked at the church in front of him, and had a general idea of some of Father Kerver's character. He added a touch of sorrow to the days that followed. He took a deep breath and walked directly to the church without hesitation. A soldier standing guard at the entrance of the church stopped him, and when Peter explained where they came from, the soldier looked at them carefully before agreeing to let them in. But Peter always seemed to feel that the soldier always seemed to look at them with a faint pity.
He shook his head, thinking that maybe he was wrong, and calmed down and took the lead and walked in.
Sure enough, the church hall was very empty and tidy, and several huge glass doors attracted the afterglow of the setting sun into the hall, which looked very golden and bright. Peter secretly estimated that the hall could accommodate about three hundred people at a time, and he was a little surprised by this result.
Just as they were frightened by the size of the church, a nun who looked to be about thirty years old and had a slightly blessed figure approached.
The nun, with her fair skin and blue eyes, asked Peter a few questions, then nodded and said to them, "The priest has been waiting for you for a long time, come with me quickly." With that, she turned and led them through the hall of the church, and came to the door of a room. The only thing Peter can remember about this nun is that she spoke in a very good voice, and he even had a very relaxed feeling as he listened to the other person's words.
Unfortunately, there was little time for him to think about it. The nun knocked softly on the door, and a slightly majestic and always very strange flirtatious voice came through the door: "Is Christina coming in." ”
The nun, Christina, turned her head to Peter, and with a soft gesture she crept them in.
Upon entering, Peter saw a large desk filled with what looked like some carved wood or stone. A large, bareheaded burly man in a black monk's robe sat on a chair and leaned over his desk, carefully looking at what he was holding. He didn't raise his head to Christina and said, "Why did you come here again, didn't you say that you shouldn't bother if you don't have anything." Although it was a complaining word, but the tone of surprise was very pampering, Peter and Eva looked at each other, and there were some guesses in their hearts. Wren frowned, glanced at the bald man vaguely, and the disdain in the corner of his eye flickered.
Christina's face flushed slightly, and she smiled and said to the bald man, "Father, the monks of the monastery you are waiting for have already arrived, well, this is Peter......" she said as she introduced the group.
Kervern sat up at once, and he bowed his head and coughed twice before he looked at Peter and them.
Peter saw that Father Kerver was about thirty years old in his prime, with a burly figure whose arms were thicker than his own thighs, and a large bald head that reminded Peter of his presence. He only thought in his heart that this person should be a member of the Holy See Knights like Uncle Henry, no matter how poor he was, he could become a soldier or two, and he didn't know how he could become a priest.
As soon as Kerver saw the expressions on the faces of Peter and his party, he knew that they must have been shocked by their appearance, and instead of being annoyed, he felt complacent.
He gently placed the thing in his hand on the desk before he slowly spoke, "You guys are so late, I thought you had some accident on the journey." Since there is no then it would be great. Well, it's a little late today, so come early tomorrow morning so I can give you some tasks. Christina, you're in charge of arranging their accommodation. With that, he waved his hand, and Christina gave a salute before leading the group out of the room.
Peter shook his head at Christina, who wanted to arrange a room for them, and in Christina's surprised gaze he explained that it might not be convenient to have an Emma girl living in the church, Christina nodded in understanding and sent them back to the church door.
At the door, she repeatedly told Peter and his party to come early tomorrow morning, and Peter promised them again and again before letting them go.
Everyone was silent and came to the only hotel in the Taji gathering point, unfortunately the hotel is too small, it seems that the environment is relatively simple, fortunately there are empty rooms, they can pick the room and the price is very cheap. The owner was very happy to see them move in, and kept pulling Peter Balabala to say something, and Peter listened with a smile all the time, but he heard a lot of useful information
Finally, under Eva's reminder, the boss was reluctant to let go, holding Peter's hand all the time, and let them go upstairs to check in.
After Peter and Wren settled down, they made an appointment and went to Eva's room. Emma was singing happily in the room, and she was bouncing on the edge of the bed as she sang. Eva was packing her things and didn't have time to take care of her for a while, so Emma was happy to entertain herself in the room by herself. She saw Peter and Wren come in, threw herself into Peter's arms with open hands, and twisted violently to climb onto his shoulders.
Peter reluctantly lifted her to the top of his head, and Emma giggled and ran her little hands through his long black hair.
Eva smiled when she finished packing her things and saw them like this.
