Chapter 16 / The Agora Before the Church

"Ahh......h

Seeing Su Zuo waving her hand repeatedly, the nun tilted her head, and suddenly understood: "Guest, are you the first time you have seen the nun of our prayer meeting?"

"Prayer meeting?" The noun he had never heard made Su Zuo stunned.

The nun raised her hand, gently placed her slender white index finger on the tip of her small and round nose, and pointed at herself: "This is the nun I dress like this." ”

Only then did Suzo realize that the place that the nun was really trying to point to was the ribbon of her hood that covered her eyes.

"Aren't all nuns blindfolded?" Su Zuo blinked, and the nun sister in front of her seemed to be very talkative.

"Only the teachings of our prayer congregation require monks to cover their eyes as much as possible and seek the truth from the depths of their hearts. The nun explained.

"Wouldn't it be troublesome to be blindfolded, wouldn't it be inconvenient to not see things in ordinary life?" Although the casual appearance of the nun showed that this kind of "practice" did not seem to be serious enough to hinder life, Su Zuo still asked the nun about his doubts in order to find out.

"As long as you keep a pious heart, love for the world, and reverence for the gods, it will not affect your life. The nun folded her hands over the towering mountain on her chest and explained to Suzo in a reverent tone, "As long as we have a pious and kind heart, then even blindfolded, the god of trade winds and truth will reflect the truth directly into our hearts." ”

All in all...... It's a kind of practice of divine arts......

Suzo thought about it for a moment before "translating" the nun's words. This seems to be a practice for a magician, just like a mage would meditate. If the monks of the Prayer Society do not maintain their resonance with the elementals at all times, they will simply fall to the ground with their faces, which is probably what it means......

Tut...... It should be said that he is a fanatical believer, and the practice of a magician is much more extreme than that of a mage.

Suzo thought in his heart.

"Are there any other congregations besides the Prayer Order?Sister Nun?" Suzo continued to pretend to be very innocent and continued to ask the nun. Although he is not a believer, this otherworldly church that is somewhat different from his perception has aroused his curiosity.

"In addition to our prayer order, there are also the Sword Friends of the God of War and Power, and the Faith Soul Society of the God of Life and Nature...... Just as the nun was counting the names of the chaotic order, a group of children rushed into the side courtyard with a giggle.

"Sister Elsa!" shouted as the children threw themselves into the nun's arms.

Caught off guard, the nun's words were interrupted suddenly, she looked at Suzo apologetically, and only after seeing Suzo shake her head and show that she didn't care, she looked at the children in her arms who seemed to be acquaintances: "Is it Gina, Wedel, and Ollie?"

"Hey, don't disturb Sister Elsa's work!" The older brown-haired boy who followed behind only then rushed into the side yard, pulled a group of children away from the nun, lowered his head, and apologized to the nun who said he didn't care.

As the morning passed and the morning came, the number of people who came to the church to receive milk gradually increased, but in Suzo's opinion, it seemed that because there was not much milk stored in each household, most of the people who came were children around 10 years old. Occasionally, a few adults, mostly driven by horse-drawn carriages, hung with the signs of shops or trading houses.

Out of personal interest, Suzo observed the nun and the children's communication for a while. Then it didn't take long for Dorn to come out with two barrels of milk, thirty-three liters, which was less than two barrels of drinking mineral water on earth, and the weight of the bakelite barrel was slightly exceeded, but from the way Dorn held it under his armpit, it seemed that this weight was quite easy for him.

"Bang", put the still a little cold wooden barrel on the carriage, Dorne turned to the nun and said goodbye: "Then Miss Nun, this year is still under your care, the Holy Sect is happy!"

"Alas, alas, the Holy Sect is happy!" the nun was entangled by a group of children who pounced on her, and she raised her head in a panic in response, but accidentally even the headscarf on her head was pulled off by the children.

"Tsk...... Is this world rich in beautiful women?" Sitting in the carriage, Su Zuo looked back and said, "Everyone in Nolan Jier is already very beautiful, and this nun sister is on par with Qiluo, plus that Miss Sheriff-"

Turning his head as he muttered to himself, Su Zuo's gaze staggered with a pair of golden eyes.

With long golden-red hair tinged with a faint fragrance, Miss Sheriff today did not follow her chief officer, but sat alone in the passenger seat of a pure black carriage.

She also seemed to recognize Suzo coming, but it wasn't until the two carriages staggered by, and the two didn't talk.

In his ear, Dorn's slightly surprised whisper: "The carriage...... It seems to be the ...... of the Duke's Palace of the Silver Rose".

"Oh oh oh! Harvest! Sure enough, the Holy Sect said that everyone was in a good mood, and if they could be cheap, they would sell it cheaply!"

"Mmmm......mmmm

"That's almost all there is to buy, and there are still some worthless knick-knacks left, and I'll talk about it when we get to the square." "Some things are cheaper to negotiate with the store, but the vegetables and fruits are still fresh from the vendors." ”

"Okay, I'm done. Suzo repeated it to Dorne to make sure he was not mistaken, and the carriage hold behind the two men was already piled high with goods.

"There's still a little time until noon, Evanian, didn't you say you have something you want to buy?

"No, I saw a stall that seems to sell it just now, but now it's gone. Su Zuo looked back, "I've probably walked more than a hundred meters, anyway, I'm not in a hurry, I'll buy it next time." ”

"Nolan Lady is so far away from the market, when will you run next time!" Dorne became angry all of a sudden, "Stinky boy get out of the car quickly, run and buy it yourself and come back! Turn around and meet in the passage square, if you can't find me, go to the square and wait, if you understand, go quickly!"

"Oh!" Suzo jumped out of the car and waved goodbye to Dorne after being kicked by Dorne's leg, but was actually a little worried.

The reason why he hadn't asked Dorne to buy something before was because what he was going to buy wasn't cheap, at least not something Suzo could afford with his current salary.

"It's troublesome to be asked...... Su Zuo sighed, looked at the flow of people around him, found the right direction, and walked into the distance......

After buying good things and walking on the way back, Su Zuo was hit by a child younger than himself.

"Wow! it hurts!" the little boy burst out from around the corner, slammed his head into the paper bag in Su Zuo's arms, and immediately sat on the ground, holding his head and crying.

"I'll go!" Su Zuo hurriedly squatted down, reached out to help the little boy, and then pulled him up, only to find that he looked a little familiar.

"Wedel! I told you not to run so fast!" A brown-haired boy in his teens pulled his two younger sisters, squeezed through the crowd, and hurriedly chased after him, and was stunned when he saw Su Zuo, "You are ......"

"Ah...... You're in church!" Suzo pointed to him and spoke first.

"I'm sorry my brother caused you trouble. The boy bowed his head and apologized.

Su Zuo didn't expect him to be so easy to speak, and hurriedly said, "It's nothing, it's your brother, didn't he get hurt, right?" He hit the iron ingot I was holding in my arms. ”

"Ahh

"Huh......" breathed a sigh of relief, and the boy stood up again, "Excuse me, you're worried, it's just a little red, there's no problem." ”

The boy turned and stretched out his hand to Suzo: "I saw you at Mother Elsa (sister) just now, my name is Eevee Vidri, this is my brother Wedel, my eldest sister Gina and my younger sister Ollie. ”

It seems that because of the reason for seeing the living person, Ollie hides behind Eevee and secretly looks at Suzo, but Gina, who is about the same height as Suzo, stares at Suzo with her waist crossed, as if she is fighting for her brother who was injured.

However, what Su Zuo was thinking about at this time was a bit rude-

"Four children...... This is the first time I have seen a family with so many children in Wenning District. ”

Suzo reached out and shook Eevee's hand: "My name is Evan Ian, and I came from the old district with my chef to buy it. ”

"Old District?" Ievee looked at Suzo in surprise when he heard his words.

Suzo understood what he was wondering about: "Our shop is on the side of King's Road. ”

With that, Ibu understood everything: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to find it strange...... Ah, by the way, I remember if you came by carriage? Did you get separated?"

Su Zuo shook his head: "I have something to buy, and I have made an appointment with the chef to meet in the square for a while." ”

"We are going to the square, shall we come together?" said Eevee, who heard Suzo say, and extended an invitation to him, "I know a shortcut to the square." ”

Su Zuo looked at the noisy three children beside Ibu, and was a little hesitant, but when he heard Ibu say this, he couldn't help but make up his mind and nodded: "Then I'm bothering you." ”。

Kabbalah lit the cigarette in his hand, and the iron prosthetic leg hanging from his right shoulder was very heavy, just like his heavy heart at this time.

"Are you ready?" he asked without turning his head at the black-robed man who suddenly appeared behind him.

"Just like in the information, the trace of Shirriel Ian has been confirmed by the church, and we are waiting for the right time. ”

β€œ...... Jasmine ...... My wife, how is she......"

In response to Kabbalah's subconscious inquiry, the black-robed man smiled lightly, "Don't worry, your lady's condition is very stable, and she will be completely recovered in just two months, Brother Kabbalah." ”

"After I died in battle...... Successfully or not, will you be able to ensure the safety of their mother and daughter?"

"Please don't be so pessimistic, Brother Kabbalah. The black-robed man tried to comfort him, "In a moment we will disarm all the guards around that lady, you only need to kill her and her children, and you can evacuate immediately through the route we have arranged for you." ”

β€œ...... In case of...... I only said in case ......" The middle-aged man named Kabbalah, who was more than 1.9 meters tall, turned around and "If I die, then can I trust you to take care of them?"

"......" the black-robed man was silent, he bowed his head, "Please rest assured, my brother, your sacrifice will never be forgotten by justice. ”

"Because, this isβ€”" the black-robed man slammed his right fist into his heart, "the right way!"
