Chapter 11 The White Church
When I practiced in the West and the North, I saw countless beliefs and gods worshiped by believers, some of them avoided disasters and asked for blessings, some in order to maintain the order of the group, it seems that faith has been able to meet their inner needs, as long as God gives them favors, even if they don't know the name of the god, they can create his own name, the appearance of the god is even more elusive, and the requirements of the gods are also different, some gods only need the prayers of believers, some gods want them to offer food, and some gods want to sacrifice maidens, all kinds of things, it is difficult to summarize in one sentence. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info As to whether benevolence and viciousness are both manifestations of divinity, it is even more inconclusive. I just want to get to the bottom of one question, is the god you believe in really a god, or is it a demon in the guise of a god?"
- Duke the Ascetic, "On Faith"
The White Church warrior at the door was not the one who had come to ask for help, and he did not trust the arriving Fenitz and his party in the slightest, but yelled at them not to come closer. Fenitz is not obedient, the saint of the White Church is the hope of healing Joan, he must be helped by the saint, so he began to talk nonsense: "This friend of the White Church, whether you believe what we say or not, we have met bandits on the way, they are coming here, if we can't work together, I'm afraid none of us will survive." ”
Soltan, who was standing at the front, looked back at Fenniz, he obviously did not understand Fenniz's plan, he only saw Saria, who was on the side, secretly covering her mouth with her hand, Soltan knew that this was a signal for him not to speak, but fortunately his helmet blocked his confused expression, so that no flaws were revealed.
The White Church warrior's body trembled obviously, "What you said is true?"
Fenitz knew that his words had an effect, and was about to strike while the iron was hot, but a woman in red came out and said in a loud voice: "Hanwick, don't be fooled by him, yesterday Jill met three bandits, all of whom were killed by the Raven Girl, how could it be possible to do it again." ”
Fenitz secretly felt bad, he didn't expect to kill a gorgeous woman halfway, and his lie was about to be exposed, but he had to continue to tell the lie, "The three gangsters, haha," he didn't know why he was laughing, maybe this would make him more confident, "The gangs are in groups, these three people are just spies in the vanguard, and their companions are killed, do you think they will give up?" Fenitz felt his heart skip out, and he feigned composure and tried to widen his eyes, though the two men couldn't see the determined look he had forced.
"If it weren't for your people calling us, how would we know that the Holy Maiden of the White Church is here?" If we don't want to help you, we have three hunters with combat effectiveness, and you remove the holy woman, there are only two people, a man and a woman, when the strength is very different, how can we talk nonsense with you, you may say, in order to use the holy woman to heal the wounds, then why don't we kill you and then take the holy woman to treat my injuries. Think about it!" With that, Joan collapsed on top of Saria, as if she had exhausted all her strength.
Carol, the woman in red, nodded to the White Church warrior, who put away his sword and invited the four of them into the house. They finally met the legendary saint who could heal all diseases, and Fenitz originally thought that this saint should be a respected old woman, but she did not expect that it was a teenage girl. Saizeriya and Fenitz helped Joan to lie down, and the Saint Gil looked at the strangers, her eyes revealing fear, and hurriedly hid in the arms of Carol, the woman in red.
"Jill's newborn baby is gone, so I'm a little uneasy now. Carol said to them, Joan was deeply affected by the snake venom but did not lose her keen sense of observation, while everyone's attention was on Jill and Carol, Joan noticed that when Carol said the word child, the expression of Hanwick at the door became obviously fierce, she only hated herself for not even having the strength to speak now, otherwise she must give Fenitz a reminder to them.
"I've had a baby, and she's so weak now, she has injuries, and her clothes are dirty, and we're going to give her a shower and change her clothes. Saliya looked at the little girl and immediately showed a loving expression.
"I brought clothes, just no medicine and a clean cloth. Carol looked at Saria, who was also a woman, and Carol was also shocked by Saria's beauty.
"I've brought the medicine kit, let's help her. Saliya caressed Jill's face, remembering her own experience as a mother, and looked at the little girl lovingly, while Jill kept whispering to the child.
"The first priority is to save this girl, she has a lot of poison, and I hope that Jill's blood will work. Hanwick immediately regained his indifferent expression, and the other people did not notice the change just now.
"It's the first time I've seen such a nice guy in the White Church as an outsider. Carroll said.
"I'm not doing it for others, it's taking advantage of each other, I'm helping you, you're helping me. We can't linger here any longer, we're going to hurry up, I'll go find a container, and you guys will get ready. With that, Hanwick went out of the house.
Fenitz grinned and looked at Joan lying on the haystack, "It seems that the White Church is not all the people you said were unapproachable. ”
Seeing that Joan's mouth was moving, there was no sound, and Fenitz put her ear close to her, "Stupid, little ...... Heart......"
"Leave it to us women here, and you two men go out. The woman in red grabbed Fenitz and Soltan and pushed out the door, and Fenniz was stunned by Joan's words, thinking, "I was fascinated by my handsomeness a few days ago, and then I returned to my old self, and even scolded me for being poisoned, but she seemed to have said to be careful, but what did she mean by being careful?"
Fenitz stared at Soltan's iron helmet, and he knew that this guy would look like that even without a helmet.
"Her Royal Highness the princess was also a mother, but I really didn't expect it. ”
"I didn't expect that either. ”
Soltan and Fenitz didn't notice that the roof behind them was attached to a tentacled creature, disappearing from time to time.
