"Guess what, Amis," White Night gathered together the fallen leaves of the Philosopher's Tree and piled them at his feet, and then he patted the dirt on his palms, "I don't have the slightest contempt for the children of the nobles, if I throw ten children of noble families and ten street children into the arena, put helmets and armor on each of them, take spears and swords, and let them catch and fight, even in an optimistic situation, in the end, the street children will survive at most two or three." www.biquge.info Not to mention textbook knowledge such as theology and history, most of the children in the market use books as pillows or use them to burn fires for warmth, except for the sentence engraved on the copper coin: "Money Imperial Country" is like a stream, in addition, they are afraid that they do not know a single word. ”

"I can say that I am quite jealous of the beautiful aristocratic fellows, who are indeed much better than us street thugs. But if we throw them down the drains, into the alleys and the garbage heaps, they won't be our match. ”

"I don't understand. ”

Amis said blankly.

Bai Ye smiled and handed over a leaf.

"What is this?"

"You see the stem of this leaf, it's the root at the bottom of the leaf, it's soft and tough. Stray children like to play a game, we take each person a leaf stalk, pinch both hands at both ends, and then cross the leaf stalk of the two together, and then pull it behind themselves together to see whose leaf stalk can't hold it off first. The one with the leaf stalk intact is the winner. ”

"Interesting," Amis said, his eyes lit up, he didn't look much smaller than White Night, but he seemed to be more childlike. He took the leaf stalk handed by Bai Ye, looked back and forth, and then rummaged through the pile of fallen leaves at Bai Ye's feet, and then found a leaf with a leaf stem that looked longer and thicker.

Bai Ye couldn't help but smile.

"Why, you said you wanted to pick one that you liked, but you didn't say that you had to use the one you gave me. ”

"No matter which one you do, you can't win against me. ”

"It's useless to talk too much, let's talk about it after the competition. ”

Half an hour later, Amis dejectedly threw away the last leaf stem that was broken in his hand, and the pile of leaves in the white night was tried by him, but without exception they were not the opponent of the leaf stem in the hand of the white night, and after losing a few games at the beginning, he tried to tighten the leaf stem and make it look like a hemp rope, hoping to make it stronger.

"That's a great trick. ”

White Night exclaimed, but when he tried Amis, it was still broken at the touch of a button.

Later, Amis thought that even if one or two could not be compared, the one in his hand would definitely break gradually in the long run, and he would be able to win when the time came. But I didn't expect that after holding on for so long, this one in Bai Ye's hand was still intact, it was really godly.

"I lost. ”

Amis had no choice but to throw in the towel.

"Guess why you can't win me. ”

"Do you have a special approach?"

"It's nothing special, it's just dragging. ”

"I see, the leaf stalk doesn't look sturdy, but to pick the kind of old and dry ......"

"Maybe, but I'm pretty ordinary. ”

Amis scratched his head and said with a bitter face, "I really can't think of it." ”

Bai Ye smiled and lifted his leaf stalk, and then pulled out a wire from it.

"What," Amis took the wire in disbelief, and then broke it, "You are cheating according to the rules, I can't win with a thousand leaf stalks with this thing, you are so cunning." ”

"The rules don't mean anything to us, and the ones who cheat are the winners. ”

"But that's not chivalry. ”

"Your chivalry is no match for this wire. ”

"These are two completely different things, White Night, we are talking about a contest between people, can your wire fight against a sword?"

"You see, I have not denied you what you are capable of. However, no matter how good your sword dancing skills are, no one will meet you one-on-one under the sun and touch your moldy head. Because your sword can't stop the bricks that you throw in the shadows, the sacks that you put your head on, and you can't parry the gangsters of a bunch of thugs. ”

"The children of the nobility are stronger than we are, for you grew up eating beef, but if one day they have to fight with wild dogs for dog poop to eat, will they be able to keep up this strength? In our place, there is no such meaningless thing as competition and rules, only people can compete and talk about rules, and the beasts only know how to win desperately, and we are a group of beasts. ‘

"But," Amis argued with the White Night, "we can also form a phalanx and protect each other like an army, as impermeable as an iron bucket, so that your guerrilla warfare will not be effective." I know that the Iron Legion, which fights the demon army on the front line of the Molten Gate, exercises their guts when recruiting the youth reserves, and it is said that the recruits who enlist on the first day will follow a trained military vulture, and the vulture must eat whatever it eats, and the best recipe in it is the demon's carrion. ”

Bai Ye rubbed his chin, and there was already a little stubble growing there: "What you said also makes sense, according to what you say, pinching us to death is as simple as pinching a bedbug to death." But if the homeless children can be compared to the army, we will not be ashamed to lose. After all, in the eyes of the aristocracy, the status of street children is not as good as that of leather makers, corpse collectors and bitches, at least their work still has a purpose, but street children are the garbage and moths of society, if we have a little value, we will not be abandoned by our parents and live on the streets. ”

Amis couldn't help but sigh: "Originally, I thought I was miserable enough, serving those pot-bellied priests every day, but now it seems that I don't know what I am blessed." ”

"People always have to be a little bit of a pursuit. ”

Amis left late that day, and the two talked for a long time, much like his playmates when he was a child, before the family had changed. Smart, strong, and simple, but I can't remember their appearance and names for some reason, and it's not just because I'm too young. Bai Ye felt that Amis was very kind, but he didn't forget to ask about the situation here.

The heavenly evil that Bai Ye was most concerned about, Amis said that the demon was said to have escaped, but his injuries were so serious, he should not live long, and for some reason the search team did not find his body. It seems that he will not be exposed for the time being, which is a good result.

As for the Heavenly Evil, it was best for him to crawl back to the feet of Bliss, and then die of anger, Bai Ye thought gloomily. But he had a hunch that Heavenly Evil was not like the kind of guy who made people worry, and I was afraid that it was not so simple to let him die.

The scourge has been left for thousands of years, Bai Ye suddenly had such an oriental proverb in his mind, but who said this, he had no impression at all.

In addition, Amis also told him about the Templars, where the leader is the Blue Cardinal Moore, and his authority is not limited to the Grey Raven Castle, but also several surrounding territories, including the Spirits Dwarves' autonomous region, as well as the Dashire Territory and the two areas of Tasville in the north and south, especially in South Tasville, where there are many wood elves. Therefore, on the whole, the problems of race and faith in the Moorish jurisdiction are very acute. Because the dwarves and elves did not believe in the Cult of Thorns, the drunken dwarves could only hear the curses from their mouths when they were drunken and peeing.

Although I don't have a good impression of the Thorn Sect, but the dwarves believe in the ancestors, and there is no conflict between the two, so there is no threat, but the stars and gods that the elves believe in, I am afraid that there are thousands of gods, which is undoubtedly a blasphemy for the monotheistic Thorn Sect, except for the god king Goriard, there is no second god, and all other divine characters are his incarnations and heirs, and can only be called demigods.

The previous blue cardinal was transferred and demoted because he could not deal with the ethnic and religious contradictions here, and Moore took office just two months ago, he was a high priest directly assigned from the City of God's Blessing, and it is said that he was the secretary of the pope before, and his status was extraordinary. But after coming to Grey Raven Castle, he didn't have the intention of being a new official with three fires, but lived in a simple place, and everyone didn't know him.

Bai Ye is not interested in Moore, after all, the disparity between the identities of the two is too great, and there is no relationship of interest.

But he didn't expect to meet the mysterious blue-clothed bishop the next day.
