Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Cunning of the Elderly
The appearance of all the priests in the temple made Barkley and Wade feel as if they were walking into a still picture.
The two of them obviously didn't fully understand the deep meaning and value of what they were holding, but that vanity was still greatly satisfied.
If this is the end of it, today's farce will still be considered to be a good effect, after all, the meaning of this rare treasure is different. But the truth is far from the case, and the next actions of the two scum have reached an unbelievable realm.
Poor Kelly had been stupefied by this thing, and didn't say anything for a long time. The dumbfounded Kelly is like a helpless child at the moment, and she has forgotten that she should reach out to pick it up.
This kneeling has been a long time, and no matter how strong the vanity is, Barkley is also anxious. The heart said that Lao Tzu's knees were sore enough, and his hands were numb, and the adult's mentor's brain was not bombarded by a priest with a dull divine comedy? So the thing simply got up by himself, and stuffed the harp into Kelly's arms a little rudely, deliberately using the convex body to push against Kelly's equally convex pair of white rabbits, and then forcefully pulled Kelly's two hands and pressed them directly on the harp, and then gave up.
Kelly was finally awakened, and saw that the harp was in her arms, and she almost didn't get stupid. The hands holding the harp trembled as if their muscles were spasming, and their mouths opened and closed for a while, but not a word came out for a long time.
"Well, my lord's mentor, and this!" Comrade Wade was very dissatisfied with Buckley's stealing the limelight first, and he found a golden chain like a trick.
Yes, that's right, it's a gold chain, the kind that even a bolted dog is too thick.
Wade volunteered to help Kelly put on her neck, and Kelly, who was completely numb, only felt that her neck suddenly sank. This is the gold coin that Wade exchanged for the magic crystal contributed by a third-order demonic beast amber giant scorpion on the way, and it was all melted, and this outrageously thick gold chain was made. This qiē is only because of Aunt Susan's earnest guidance, and many people are not to blame.
If this qiē ends here, it is barely acceptable, but it is not over, and the two earth buns are destined to leave a strong mark on their first entry into the main temple of Auburn Mountain.
A box was shaken out by Barkley, and Wade half-knelt to the side with his hands raised, and his mouth emitted the voice of "dangdangdang", as if a heavyweight treasure had appeared.
The harp can only be regarded as a gift from Cao Zhishu, Wade has a gold chain, how could Barkley show weakness? This product's acting skills are very good, and he even deceived Cao Zhishu, which also guaranteed that he could have such an opportunity to be courteous today.
Unfortunately, when it comes to the choice of gifts, Barkley has almost the same style as Wade.
When the box opened, it was filled with two rows of gold rings. It took Barkley a great deal of effort to put the rings on Kelly's trembling hands, no more, no less, exactly ten. If one is missing, it is not satisfactory, this is Barkley's opinion.
The two dragon slayer warriors walked around Kelly, and nodded with satisfaction, Kelly's raw material is really good. Their aesthetic vision is deeply influenced by the style of the rural tyrants advocated by the branch secretary, whether a person is high or not, and a large number of dù is directly proportional to the weight of the gold on his body.
The two of them were also a little regretful, if it weren't for the fact that on the way here, when they enjoyed the bard's performance, their rewards were relatively large, which should also make the mentorship of the branch secretary more noble. If Aunt Susan was here, she would have fainted on the spot, why are these two silly boys so different?
As a result, the two worked hard to create a never-before-seen Kelly. This priest, who had always been known for his nobility, gentleness, incorruptibility, and piety, became a tear of the stars that could be called the best art treasures of the century, with a thumb-thick gold chain hanging laboriously around his neck, and his hands and fingers covered with rings engraved with the human characters "Fu, Lu, and Shou ......", which the merchants called the perfect gold set artifact.
Kelly had no intention of being different, but this outfit was really outstanding in her bipolar coexistence of art and nouveau riche. From elegant to vulgar, this gap is like a moat, and Kelly has stepped over it in one step, as easily as if she had flatulence in her stomach and then let out a fart.
Mistress Kelly's look today is destined to be the first elegant and vulgar in the history of the Temple of Auburn Hills, proving that opposite poles can have an accommodating side. Her peculiar appearance was also recognized by the priests who witnessed this scene, and later evaluated it as "a rich woman holding an artifact", a special existence that has no ancients in front of the main shrine on Auburn Hill.
"Lord Kelly, are you quite satisfied with Lord Cao's 'greetings'?" Barkley continued to insult Sven.
By the time Kelly came back to her senses, she was already in the boat. The harp in her arms is undoubtedly a piece of her student's heart, and the clever Kelly understands this when she thinks about it. This harp is too precious, but now Kelly doesn't know what else to say, and the person in question is not there at all.
And those vulgar gold, Kelly is also right. This was a greeting for the two followers of his own students, and they were the famous dragon-slaying twins, how could they refuse? Do you want to say that they are not sensible? Kelly could even tell at a glance that they were from the heart, not trying to play tricks on themselves. In the end, he could only nod numbly, indicating that he could still bear it.
Although this is very different from Aunt Susan's vision, these two silly hats are undoubtedly equivalent to making Lord Cao's reputation, at least for all the priests present.
These priests are now all one idea, look at the high feet of Master Kelly. The follower is the Dragon Slayer Twins, so how long has it been since he went out?
And now other people's teaching rites are priceless treasures like the tears of Xingyun. That body of gold is a little vulgar, and it is also real gold, the shape is not so elegant, but the weight is solid enough.
Thinking about their own scoundrels, the red eyes of many of the priests seemed to indicate that their students were going to be unlucky. Even if you are not forced by these priests to slay the dragon, it is a sure thing to give some blood to honor and honor your mentor.
"Your Majesty, my Lord Cao has completed the task arranged by the temple, completed the mission of exterminating the bipedal wyvern and lifting the thousand-year curse of the Cursed Land, and is ready to obey the dispatch of Your Majesty!" Barkley arched his hand, and finally got down to business, their main purpose was what Aunt Susan had repeatedly told him.
This is an earth-shattering sentence!
If only the problem of bipedal wyvern is solved, then everyone can accept it, after all, the beast's magic crystal is embedded in the tears of Xingyun, which has already explained a qiē.
And lifting the curse of the Cursed Lands is definitely a terrifying thing. Which priest in the room did not know what the curse was, and even many of them had tried it, and the summary of the problem that had existed for a thousand years was not correct.
And that little traveling priest had accomplished this goal in just a few months, which was definitely a feat that could be recorded in the history of the temple. It means that his wisdom and ability have surpassed countless sages, and it means that he has saved an endangered group of heroes!
Kelly almost didn't pass out, this time because happiness came too suddenly. Although Kelly had always had high hopes for this student with the talent of a celestial soul chanter, she never imagined that he would be able to accomplish such an unimaginable thing. This simply made Kelly feel that she was kissed by the beast god, and to be able to be a mentor to this kind of person, the happiness is self-evident.
"Oh, there is such a thing, then this young and promising priest is really a good seed of our temple! Since he has done such a feat, then the two warriors of Lao will pay him high respect for me when they return, and may the glory of the beast god be with him. "Who is Stern's crown, he just took off the crown on his head, bowed, and gave a reply.
As for the promotion of the Dragon Slayer Twins to the secretary of Cao, Stern didn't say a word.
"But, Your Majesty, the mission is complete. Next, shouldn't Lord Cao go back to the main shrine for a commendation ceremony or something? After all, this is also a very important achievement, this kind of good news should be known to everyone, and it is convenient for the temple to show the omnipresent brilliance of the beast god, right?"
"Son, you're just too attached to the teachings of our temple. Breaking the curse is something that every capable priest should try to accomplish, because every priest is responsible for spreading the brilliance of the beast god. Priest Cao is such a pious boy who has carried out his teachings, praise him!I think that the Pyg people who have just escaped the curse will need the help of this pious priest. And he should also continue to hone himself and make greater contributions. Stern's faint words not only stunned the Dragon Slayer Twins, but also stunned all the people present.
At this time, even Kelly, who doesn't know how to use power, has already understood that Lord Crown is simply blatantly trying to cover up his student's exploits and crucify him in that remote village!
Of course, His Majesty's statement is correct, and he does have profound attainments in doctrine, which goes without saying. But now, he is obviously using his teachings to oppress people! How can such a thing not be propagated? Even a great merit worthy of the celebration of the whole country, two sentences of understatement, as if it had never happened?
The other priests were even more frightened, and the turn of events was too frightening. They are all old fritters, where will they not understand the meaning of this person in power.
This is really an unbelievable discovery, a small traveling priest not only has a disgrace with the short-lived Montgomery, but even has a grudge against Stern's crown, which is too weird.
All kinds of things are connected, and this little traveling priest suddenly has a thick layer of mystery on him. But no one is going to offend Stern for the sake of this traveling priest, unless they're crazy. Silent and cold bystanders are the best means.
"My lord, this is unreasonable...... Kelly spoke directly, this kind of thing, she can't understand and can't agree with.
Kelly's anger is not because of some tears of stardom, she now knows that her students have been treated unfairly, if she turns a blind eye, how can she still see each other in the future?
"Mistress Kelly, don't you know the doctrine of the temple as the priest of the altar, and there is no way to talk about the appointment of the temple, and the dispatch of priests to carry out the task should have my instructions, right?
Stern is also well-founded in that priests travel spontaneously most of the time, and very few temples appoint priests to carry out tasks. And this kind of task does need to be signed by the top leader of the temple.
Stern really didn't have the slightest involvement in this matter. As for his appearance, it is a matter of opinion......
