Chapter 40: My Salted Fish Is Gone
Because the little maid usually likes to run around and play, she didn't attract much attention when she wasn't at home at first.
Later, Alvo, who was next door, came to her to learn the lingua franca, but she didn't see her until the afternoon before she realized that something was wrong.
After Alvo called for people to search all the territory of the Shuangxiu Sect but did not find Clara, they then expanded the search area, and finally found the body of the little fat man Xie Wei before the sun went down, and found his long-dead parents in Xie Wei's residence.
By the time Li Yu received the news, it was already completely dark.
Li Yu glanced at his watch, and there was less than half an hour left before he got off work.
There wasn't much he could do in this amount of time, so he could only let Jude take four drones and the Black Dog Guard to continue searching Clara's whereabouts.
In addition, he asked Yin Leiya to contact the surrounding lords and offer the price of fifty pieces of "Dragon's Blood" in exchange for useful clues.
Those little blue pills on the continent of Brattis also replicate the madness that they caused in the beginning of their birth in another universe!
Pfizer had spreed $409 million in sales in the first three months of Vigra's listing, and almost a year later, such a small blue slice on China's black market sold for $100, which is about the same as a month's salary of ordinary people at that time!
The amount of dragon blood in the continent of Brattis is even smaller, and the price is even more outrageous, and now it has even soared to ninety golden lions, and most importantly, there is no market.
It is said that many of the elderly male aristocrats in the royal capital are looking for a lot of money, many of them are rich and rival the country, money is just a number to them, and reliving the happiness of the past is what they desire the most.
Fifty pieces of "Dragon's Blood" are very tempting to use or sell for yourself.
On the folk side, Li Yu also offered a generous reward, and those who could bring the little maid back could get a one-time reward of 1,000 gold coins, plus two catties of fine pepper, as well as a pair of armor made of dragon scales and a set of brick houses.
As soon as this reward came out, it was boiling from top to bottom.
In the days that followed, hundreds of people appeared, all claiming that they had important clues on hand, but most of them were just here to cheat money. In the end, after sifting around, only two people's words sounded more credible.
A farmer from the green field, he said that when he went into the woods to pick up branches, he saw a father and daughter, at that time he just thought that the father looked a little fierce, but he didn't think much about it, until he heard about Clara, and remembered that the color of the father's hole was different from that of his daughter, it was yellow.
According to the farmer, the man seemed to be quite polite to Clara, and did not hurt the little maid.
Another piece of news came from outside the green field, where a caravan had seen a man with a young girl draped in a blanket pass in front of them at ten o'clock in the evening, heading southeast.
The two stopped in the middle and begged them for some water.
Li Yu gave the farmer and the leader of the caravan a bounty of fifty gold coins each, and then immediately found a map and circled the town in the southeast.
There are seven in total, and if you check them all, it is an out-and-out big project.
And the most important thing is that if the people who took Clara away are really the people of the Silvermoon Church, then with the power of the Silvermoon Church in the West, they are fully capable of hiding the little maid in a place where no one can find it.
In addition, the biggest problem that plagued Li Yu was that he couldn't leave the green field, unless Yin Leiya also went with him, but the latter was also a prince after all, and he still had a lot of government affairs to deal with in his own territory.
In addition, after holding the initiation ceremony for the female lord, Li Yu also had a lot of follow-up work that had not been completed, and it was difficult for him not to come back for a long time at this juncture.
In the end, what Li Yu didn't understand the most was why the Silvermoon Church wanted to kidnap Clara.
Although Clara has been living with him, and Li Yu also has high hopes for her, because she herself is too salty, she has hardly done anything else on weekdays except for learning languages and taking care of some housework.
Even if the Silver Moon Church took her away, it would not affect the Shuangxiu Sect at all, let alone make up for the blow that Yin Leiya had dealt to them on Saturday.
In fact, these days, the Silvermoon Church is already about to quarrel.
In order to deal with Li Yu and his Shuangxiu Sect, this time the church sent many priests to the green field, and those priests also went to watch the initiation ceremony of the female lord.
They went with great expectations, hoping that the church would do something to stop this from happening, and that there should be a fight to let the Arias family know the cost of betraying Picia.
But in the end, the Silver Moon Church made a move, and from beginning to end, it was only unilaterally humiliated, and in front of thousands of people, two farces were staged, and finally ended hastily.
Not only were the believers in the church disappointed, but even the priests such as Quintus were ashamed and angry.
And this anger even burned to the people above.
High Priest Reeves called Herodotus, who was in charge of the operation, to his residence that night, and scolded his disciple with his head and face, "Look at the good things you have done!" ”
The old priest's face turned red, and he couldn't stop coughing, and the beautiful young maid on the side hurriedly walked up.
Although there were several braziers in the room, the maid's clothes were still a little too thin, and you could already see the skin underneath.
She walked up to High Priest Reeves and hammered the old priest on the back, then gently lifted her lips and raised her head, allowing the old man to spit the thick phlegm in his throat directly into her mouth.
And Herodotus, as if he hadn't seen this jaw-dropping scene, just bowed down to be trained, and waited for the old priest to scold before he spoke, "That Merlin prophet is indeed worthy of his name, and he has some means. ”
"Of course I know he has the means, otherwise why would you want to mobilize the Guardian Team."
High Priest Reeves snorted and waved his hand to tell the maid to step back, "His dragon's blood is also a really good thing, but it's just too little." ”
"I helped you buy another piece, teacher." As he spoke, Herodotus took out another vial and placed it respectfully on the table.
But this time, High Priest Reeves did not immediately accept the filial piety of his disciples, but frowned and sighed, "This time the matter did not end so well, the people below made a lot of trouble, and High Priest Martina has always disliked the Guardian Sect, so he will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble." ”
"But this must not be difficult for the teacher."
Herodotus looked up after speaking, only to find that the teacher was staring at him.
"This time you have been in charge, and the Guardian Team has also been trained by you over the years, so ......"
