Chapter 623: Hungry
The thick and neat hall is filled with bright light, and the large painted windows around it shine a colorful light, reflecting the large sacred hall like a beautiful dream, as if you are in the kingdom of God. In the middle hall is a half-length majestic statue of the god Sienworth with a silver glitter, the stern face reveals the nobility and kindness, the broad body is holding a strong silver shield symbolizing indestructible power, and holding a shiny large Mithril wine glass, which means wealth and dignity.
The bright silver 'wine glass', which is as thick as a human waist, exudes a charming mellow aroma, mixed with the aroma of the incense burner in the hall, which has a unique intoxicating flavor. Let the noble people who are worshipping inside also seem a little weak: "To our majestic God Sienworth, pray that you will give us unity and strength, we will protect this beautiful land with our lives and souls, to our generous God Sienworth, please give us integrity and health, protect the people of this land, to our merciful God Sienworth, please give us wisdom and luck, let us guard the peace and tranquility here, and let evil and pain be away forever~~"
Then, under the leadership of the priest, the barons in rich robes, the holy warriors in shining armor, and the officials and attendants in colorful and rich robes bowed down respectfully on the ground, and prayed for the approval of the gods with twelve points of sincerity. After the solemn ceremony lasted for a full thirty minutes, the majestic and burly statues of the gods in the central hall bloomed with a white light of pure justice - this was the gods' response to them, and it was also an affirmation of their past!
The lords, holy warriors, officials, attendants, centurions, and others below were all excited, happy, and fanatical, and they worshiped more and more. It was only after five minutes that the beautiful and solemn silver light had receded, and everyone got up to receive the holy water from the priest, and drank it all together.
Then the lord, dressed in a luxurious fur robe of black and blue, said with joy, "Since the great god Sienworth has approved of our plan, let's go and prepare." Do your best to get rid of those guys in the next few days. There can be no longer any delay, and now not only is the king's army digging out to collect taxes, but I have also heard that the people of the Dragon Worship are about to arrive. Why do you all run to my territory and toss around?! Those people will be used by both families at the same time, and we will be unlucky when the time comes!"
The loyal holy warriors and officials and attendants below sternly said, "Don't worry, tomorrow we will arrange someone to deal with this matter, and in four days, there will be no more scourges in this world." As he was talking, he suddenly heard the attendants outside come in and report: "Lord Baron, a beautiful young lady and a high paladin of Ilmat, the god of suffering, have come to you, saying that they know you. ”
The baron, who was over forty years old, suddenly frowned: Who knows the believers of the god of beggars? Could it be that when I was in the royal capital, I threw gold coins to a few old beggars, so they brought a beautiful young lady to repay the favor? Hmm~~ What are you thinking? Let's go check it out. Anyway, I won't give a copper plate this time!
Immediately with a large group of subordinates hula out of the carved majestic temple, I saw a beautiful woman with a white light and jade horn on her forehead trotting all the way over, seeing the lively pure temperament and writhing and flexible beautiful figure, the baron, who is not too old, instinctively opened his arms to warmly welcome: Yes, yes, I didn't expect that the believers of the god Ilmat still have a little conscience, and actually prepared such a beautiful girl for me. Alas~~ When you see a beggar in the future, you must give a few more gold coins! When I was thinking about it excitedly, I heard a very familiar voice from the girl opposite: "Uncle! It's great to see you!"
This voice~~ Why is it so familiar?
Whatever, as long as it's not a 'weird uncle'. Just as the baron was about to hug him with a smile, he suddenly saw the face of the comer: "Xandelle?!Why did you get here?!Your father is about to die of anger from you!" Although the person who came had a small horn on his forehead and was still shining, and his face was like the healthy wheat color of a peasant girl, wasn't the voice of the facial features exactly Xandelle? At that moment, the uncle and nephew hugged each other excitedly, and the baron suddenly sighed: "Where have you been in the past two years? Your father has sent letters to almost all the barons in the country, asking them to inquire about your whereabouts~~? What kind of badge is this?The badge of Rari, the unicorn god?!"
The baron looked at the short white light horn on Cindel's head again, and thought that the god Larry had chosen Cindel to become a special envoy, although he was not interested in this kind of bird god, but after all, people were gods, and extraordinary people could talk nonsense. Besides, it is not in line with the etiquette of the aristocracy. I had to sigh and say: "Niece, this is all fate~~ Since you have been recognized by the gods, it is also a great blessing." I'll go back and write a letter to your father and tell him not to worry too much. But now the world is not good, and there are often some believers of evil gods wandering in the wilderness, especially those bandits who form gangs and gangs are more perverted than one another! You must be careful outside. Oh, this strong man is ~~ your bodyguard?"
Heidar didn't have the heart to ramble with him, so he immediately snorted and took it as a default. Xander next to him pulled the topic back: "Uncle, I see that there is a refugee camp outside your manor, and dozens of heavily armed militiamen have been sent to guard it. If you're in charge of them, why don't you give them some food?"
The baron suddenly had a big headache: "Why are you asking this and you are asking this?! If you don't gather them together and keep an eye on them, will you let them steal from my manor, or join the bandits against me?" But there are some things that cannot be done, especially when facing a kind girl, you must always maintain your own image.
At that moment, he was a little anxious: "This~~ Gather them together to prevent~~ to prevent the bandits from slaughtering them! Yes! There are often bandits here, if they don't gather to guard, they will be dug up by those bastards who have lost their conscience and make adult broth to satisfy their hunger! As for that grain~~that grain~~" suddenly squeezed his hands in a hurry.
The leader was in a hurry, and of course the loyal courtiers had to come forward! Immediately, some of them thought that the nobles had come out of battle with the white-helmeted paladins of the guardian god Sienworth, and said loudly: "It's a pity that we have no extra food here! Honorable lady, don't you know that not long ago the city of Essel Delida in the south betrayed the great empire? The king was very angry because of this, and repeatedly rebuked the royal generals everywhere for their bad deeds, and took the opportunity of suppressing the rebellion to pretend to be public and corrupt the law, leading to more rebellion and greater resentment among the people. To this end, the king wanted to expand the Guards and recruit a large number of young Warlocks from the royal family. In order to train and arm these people, a lot of money is needed. So~~alas~~ by getting a bunch of taxes on our heads. Originally, there was still some surplus food, but after such a toss, it was gone. We can't help it. ”
The Baron was first overjoyed, and then lamented, "Yes, yes. I have few poor people here, and I can't produce a few sacks of wheat, and at once hundreds of hungry people have come, more than my guards and militia combined! Alas~~It's all fate~~"
Before he finished 'ah', he saw that Xandel on the other side had already knelt on the ground, pleading with tears in his eyes: "Uncle, I know that you are not rich here, but those people are too pitiful. You may not have seen it happening to see some scrawny toddler just learning to speak, curled up in his mother's arms and crying out for hunger. But~~ But his mother is dead~~" Cindell's tears flowed like pearls of grief drop by drop, and even her voice trembled: "His mother~~ has long been a dry corpse with skin and bones!and~~ is still decomposing a little bit! Not only are the rotten skin on her body falling off piece by piece, but the inside of her eyes ~~ is still ~~ still ~~ crawling with disgusting moths~~ Woo woo woo~~" She almost cried: "Can you imagine it? The appearance of a toddler who had just learned to speak curled up next to a decomposing corpse and refused to leave. Because that corpse is the only mother who loves him!
Seeing that Uncle Baron's face was cramping but silent, Xander sobbed even more with tears in his eyes: "~~ There are still some scrawny hungry people gathered around their fallen companions~~They are not~~ not comforting their companions, but ~~ but waiting for him to die! As soon as the man breathes~~ he will divide the flesh and internal organs on his body~~Swallow it raw~~ This is hell! Do you want to see your territory become hell? Woo woo woo~~ Can't you just buy some food from other places to help the emergency. The girl's tears of extreme grief struck everyone's hearts like hammers, silently and moving.
Of course, there are always two sides to things, and when some people are moved, there will naturally be another part of them who are irritable - such as our baron. He wants to have a seizure but is not good at seizures, and he really can't help it if he doesn't have a seizure. At the moment, he was in a dilemma on both sides, and his anxious eyes changed several times: women are really annoying!
When the leader is in a dilemma, the loyal courtiers naturally step forward to relieve the siege. So the middle-aged priest of the god of Sienworth next to him rushed to the baron's side, knelt heavily on the ground, hugged the baron's thighs and shouted sincerely: "No, my lord! If we go to buy food, we will be targeted by these bandits, thinking that we have money and food here. When the time comes, they will continue to come, and where will we, the hundreds of people, be able to stop it? The tens of thousands of people under your rule will be wiped out! Although we also sympathize with those hungry people, this matter is really not appropriate! For the sake of your people, we can only endure the pain and cut love. ”
