Chapter 65: The Eagle and the Coffin
Mel didn't believe the girl's words, but she didn't want to be nosy, but she didn't want to get involved in anything that involved the temple, even if the girl was really a fake priest. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
But what does this have to do with you?
"By the way, my name is Lily, what's your name?"
"Meier. ”
"Mayer, I seem to have heard of this name, as if the best new writer at this year's writers' review meeting is a teenager named Maier, you are actually the same name, it is really fate. ”
Mel glanced at Lily and said, "I'm going to the village, are you going back to the town, or are you going to the village?"
"I'll go to the village too, I haven't seen the sick man yet, but you'll have to let the big dog protect me, and I'll meet the three drunks again. ”
Mel nodded, not speaking.
Druba followed Maier faithfully, not even looking at Lily.
Tom follows from afar, and Mel wonders what the teenage priest is trying to do, if he has deliberately created this coincidence to meet him, and if he has been exposed.
Lily wrinkled her nose, a little dissatisfied with Myer's cold attitude.
In the sky, the eagle seemed to be following.
When I entered the village, the first thing I saw was a passer-by, with a black cloth rolled around his arm, and his expression was in a hurry, as if something big had happened in the village.
Mel frowned, and a black cloth was rolled around his arm, something that usually happens at a funeral.
In other words, a funeral was going on in the village, and the status of the deceased seemed to be high in the village, and most of the doors were closed.
"Lily, who was that sick patient you said earlier?"
Lily tilted her head and thought for a while, and said, "It seems to be an old man, I heard that he is quite old." ”
Maier thought for a moment, and then said, "Lily, give you a suggestion to take off your clothes." ”
"You!" Lily's eyes widened, and she looked at Maier incredulously, clasping her hands on her chest as if she was about to be violated.
Maier knew that the girl must have misunderstood, so she glanced at the girl and said, "Don't think nonsense, I don't mean what you imagined, I want you to change your clothes." ”
"Why?" Lily still looked wary.
Maier pointed in the direction of the village and said, "If I am not mistaken, the one who died should be the patient in your mouth, and it seems that the status in this village is not low." ”
"The old man is critically ill, and they send someone to ask for help from the pastor, but you don't catch up, whether it's your fault or not, but they will blame it on you. ”
"They will think that it was your tardiness, or your incompetence, that caused the death of the elderly. ”
"If you're accompanied by a knight, or if you're an adult male priest, they'll just keep it to themselves, talk behind their backs, and don't dare to show any resentment against you. ”
"But you a teenage priest appears in front of them, a teenage priest who can't even deal with three drunks, and they're bound to attack you verbally. ”
"If someone is angry, they may attack you personally. ”
Lily was slightly frightened when she heard this, but she didn't believe it, and said, "I'm the priest of the temple, how dare they do that to me?"
Mel shook his head and said, "The temple does represent the splendor of the gods, but not everyone is in awe of the gods, especially in such remote villages. ”
"They will only judge by what they see, and even more fear of God than they will fear a playful person, so no one can guess what they will do. ”
"If they hurt you, even if the temple people punish them afterwards, what does that mean to you?"
"Moreover, it is not certain whether the temple will punish them. ”
"It depends on the meaning of the bishop of the temple, if the bishop of the temple favors you, he may avenge you, punish those who have hurt you, and even bloody suppression. ”
"If the bishop of the temple is fair, he will examine the matter in detail and punish the party who made the mistake. ”
"If the bishop of the temple doesn't like you, then things will go the other way, and your injury is already a fact, and no matter what you do, it can't be eliminated. ”
"And this is done by many people in the village, if you punish these villagers, it is just a breath for you, and the damage you have suffered will not disappear. ”
But after the punishment, the village's belief in the gods will be reduced accordingly, and for the bishop it will be more than worth the loss, so they may pretend that nothing has happened. ”
"And you, to your own devices. ”
Lily retorted loudly, "The Bishop is not so bad, he will definitely do justice for me." ”
Mel shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm just going to analyze all the possibilities for you, and I don't know what will happen in the end, but do you still have to wear a priest's uniform?"
Lily gritted her teeth and hesitated for a moment, but finally she was frightened by Myer's words, and took off her priest's robe, which was underneath a bright green dress.
The dress was embroidered with flowers, and some small animals.
It's pretty good-looking, and it goes well with the teenage priest, but it looks a little childish, and the appropriate age for this dress is probably three or four years younger than the teenage priest.
"Don't laugh!"
Lily glared at Myer.
"No, I'm not smiling, I mean, it's pretty. ”
Lily blushed slightly, pulled her sleeves, and suddenly looked up again, looked at Myer, and asked, "Myer, you are the one who wrote the story, right?"
Mer did not answer, and led the way to the center of the village.
Lily gritted her teeth and quickly followed.
The wails and cries came and went, and they all cried sincerely, as if they were all deeply attached to the dead old man, and were heartbroken at the moment.
At that moment, a cloud of guano fell, right in the middle of the coffin surrounded by everyone.
Everyone was taken aback, and it seemed that they couldn't believe what was happening in front of them.
A man looked up sharply, saw an eagle flying in the sky, and roared angrily: "Damn beast, look for death!"
The eagle dodged with ease.
Lily chuckled.
"It's all to blame on that priest, if he had come earlier, Grandpa Kidd wouldn't have died, and I don't want to be bullied by this beast after he dies, it's really hateful. ”
"yes, blame the damn pastor, I'll give him a hard lecture if he comes. ”
Lily's face changed suddenly.
