Chapter 6 Prices

The idol in the field of vision is still not clear, and the faint fluorescence seems to be weaker, which may also be a psychological effect. The progress bar grew slowly, and he was very peaceful, not in a hurry.

When the town's evening bell rang, Rosie and Bevis opened their eyes at the same time, and the evening class was over.

Bivis sighed, no one came to church all day today, although he was used to it, he couldn't help but feel hopeless. He turned his head to look at the indifferent Rosie, showed a bitter smile, shook his head, and ran to the door of the church to close the door, although the most valuable thing in the whole church was probably these benches under the stage.

"You've been out all day today, have you caught anything?", the two of them asked as they walked towards the kitchen, and Bivis couldn't help but ask.

His face was full of anticipation, hoping that Rossi would give him a satisfactory answer.

Rosie hesitated, but nodded, "I'm not sure, it's going to wait for tomorrow." ”

The two of them simply ate a little black bread in the evening, and boiled water, and the church here did not have much money. If it weren't for the fact that the church would send five silver coins a month, I am afraid that I would not even be able to eat these things.

Beavis returned to the room, but Rossi stood in the clearing with a one-handed sword, swinging it slowly.

At the same time, Hano, who had gambled for a day, returned home.

His mother-in-law was holding a rolling pin in her hand and glared at him with a fierce expression, "Damn it, are you gambling again?" Hano, I warn you, if you steal money from the house again, I will divorce you!"

Hano unexpectedly did not lower his eyebrows and accept his mother-in-law's threat, but sat on the chair with a sneer, and drank it in a big gulp with a kettle.

His mother-in-law took a few steps forward, squinting her eyes, and there was a dangerous glint in her eyes, "Didn't you hear? Or are you willing to divorce me?", she cried out, "I've had enough! You worked honestly before you got married, and now you don't even want to work, I'm really blind, and I will marry someone like you." ”

Hano frowned, took out a heavy money bag from his arms, threw it on his mother-in-law's body, smashed her two steps back, and held the money bag in his hand in disbelief.

The money bag was very heavy, and a woman who was accustomed to breaking copper in half and spending it in half could guess that there were at least three or four hundred copper in it just by touching it with her hand.

Hano sat with a grin, his hands on the back of the chair behind him, looking like a villain. He puffed out of his nostrils and squinted at the woman, "Idiot, open it!"

The woman hesitantly opened the money bag and suddenly gasped. Two silver coins shimmered pure white in the dim light, and some of the coppers stained with oil and sludge emitted a peculiar stench, at least five hundred. She trembled and tightened the rope on the purse, threw the rolling pin to the ground, ran out of the yard, pushed open the door and looked left and right, carefully inserted the deadbolt and ran back, "Damn, did you steal something?"

Hano sneered twice, "Stupid woman, from today onwards, please call me lucky Hano!"

He rubbed his stomach, "I'm hungry." ”

The woman hurriedly brought half a piece of black bread, as well as a bowl of vegetable soup with oil stars floating on it. After a few bites of food and drank the vegetable soup, Hano breathed a sigh of relief, he pointed to the money bag and said, "This is the money I won back today." You have to remember that from today onwards, our good days are coming!"

The woman stopped talking, but Hano smiled, "I finally understand why I keep losing, and I know how to change the situation." You know what? I'm going to win back all the money I had before, and I'm going to win more! You take two hundred coppers, and tomorrow I'm going to buy some meat, and I'm going to eat meat. I'll take the rest and pull it off. Go, pour some hot water and let me soak my feet. You don't know, I almost stood all afternoon!!"

Hano's spirit was still very excited, the woman thought about it, glanced at the heavy money bag in her arms, and fell silent.

Poor couples mourn everything, if it is really as Hano said, not to mention that they can win every day, as long as they don't lose, the situation at home will be much better. She put the purse on the table, turned and ran towards the kitchen with the tub.

Early the next morning, as soon as Beavis opened the door of the church, he saw Hano standing outside with a smile on his face.

"Is there anything wrong with you?", Bivis rubbed his eyes, he knew Hano, everyone in Greentown knew him, a guy who would only lose money.

Hano's eyebrows were lowered, he bowed slightly, and his hands were rubbed together, "Ah, respected Priest Bivis, I've come to Priest Rosie." ”

Rosie?

Beavis stepped out of the door, "Then please come in, Priest Rossi will be coming in short." ”

Hano looked at the church after entering, this was the first time he had entered this church that had been in existence for nearly twenty years, and although he didn't feel anything magical, he always felt as if something was watching him. He didn't dare to walk around, and honestly sat on the first row of benches.

As soon as Rossi entered the church, he spotted Hano, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, and it seemed that yesterday's thoughts had been confirmed.

"Mr. Hano, have you had breakfast?"

Hano quickly stood up and behaved very humbly, "I've already eaten...... , Priest Rosie, I would like to ask you to ...... Please cast that magical spell on me again!"

Rosie walked slowly to Hano's side and shook his finger, "Mr. Hano, I helped you yesterday because I saw that you were unlucky, so I wanted to use magic to save a poor man. But Mr. Hano, magic is not a panacea, and one day it will not work. Also, I am only a deacon, not a priest. ”

After hearing this, Hano was stunned for a moment, and asked blankly, "What should I do in the future?"

"You can be religious, you can join our family. ”

Hano's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked, "If I am religious, can you cast a god for me...... Tricks?"

Rossi clasped his fingers together and naturally hung down in front of him, "Of course, Mr. Hano, if we are all a family, then you have the right to share many things that cannot be obtained or known by outsiders. ”

Hano was a little impatient, he was still waiting to go to the casino to make a profit, and hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Okay." Okay, Vice-Priest Rossi, I'm willing to become a believer, so please cast a magic spell for me!"

Beavis watched in confusion, as if there was something Hano asking Rossi to do. Bivis still has some knowledge of Hano, he has been stationed here for more than ten years, although he rarely goes to the town to hang out, but he has some understanding of the people in the town.

Hano is a gambler, he only knows money and gambling. After his father's death, he even thought that the solid wood coffin was too luxurious for ordinary civilians, and actually sold the coffin prepared by his father to others, and his father buried it in the soil with a straw mat. He took the coffin money to the casino for two days, and was kicked out by the casino guards two days later, when he was empty.

Why should such a person, who is almost morally degraded to the extreme, shout to join the church?

He wanted to ask Rosie, but he couldn't speak.

Rossi raised his hand and made a stopping motion, "Mr. Hano, you may not know much about us, only believers who have the Holy Cross of the Asylum Badge can become believers. Rossi looked Hano up and down, stretched out his hands and shrugged his shoulders helplessly, "Obviously, Mr. Hano, you don't have a cross on you. ”

"Oh, damn it, I fuck ...... "Where did you get this thing from?", Hano was a little crazy, he really didn't have much patience to do this, now he just wanted to go and find a seat in the casino and win a lot of money, instead of wasting time here. "How the hell can I have that damn cross?"

Rossi corrected, "It's the Holy Cross...... If you don't prepare it yourself, our church has ready-made ones for sale. The iron holy cross is fifty coppers each, the bronze cross is two hundred coppers each, the silver cross is twenty silver coins each, and the higher ones are not here. ”

Hano immediately took out a handful of copper from his pocket and stuffed it into Rossi's hand, "Damn, please hurry up, can you give me a blessing first?"

Rosie smiled and nodded, he turned around and handed the copper in his hand to Bivis, who watched Rosie's performance in amazement. What bullshit higher level crosses, there are only seven or eight iron crosses in the whole church, and the only silver cross is on his own body. And these things are not sold for money, but are given to believers and those who yearn for the Light.

Rosie...... And you actually sell these things for money? And it seems to sell them for a lot of money?

He shuddered at the thought of the blow the church would suffer if this matter was exposed. Whatever happens to Rosie in the end, at least his good days are coming to an end. After more than ten years of no progress, and finally made some scandals, the Pope will definitely not let him go, at least he will be whipped.

As soon as he was about to stop Rosie from messing around, Rosie shoved a handful of copper into his hand, and even glared at him with a fierce look.

Beavis only felt that he had seen the most dangerous thing in the world, not one of them. He was speechless for a while, standing in place, sweating profusely.

Rossi took an iron cross from his cuff and stuffed it into Hano's hand, "The effect of each spell only lasts for an hour, no matter what you are doing, be sure to pay attention to the time." Also, every Monday morning before sunrise, I would like you to come to church and join us for morning service. In addition, every time you cast a magic spell on you, you will need to pay twenty copper. Got it?
