Under the gloomy sky, a few simplely dressed people walked out of the alley, holding a palm-sized icon, whispering softly while Q side, and slowly following Dongzi and their team forward. biquge.info starters
At first, there were only a few, but the more I went, the more I encountered, and the people gradually turned into a sparse team, like a ghost holding an icon slowly walking forward.
Dongzi pointed to the crowd around him and asked Denzel curiously, "Why are all these people gathered in the street, and they are all holding statues of gods?"
Denzel said with pride on his face: "These are our faithful followers of the god Cusport, and they go to the weekly assembly. Our great gods of Cusport will bestow different blessings on them during the rituals of the assembly, according to their expression in the most recent period. The more devout the believer and the more God's doctrine is acted, the greater the reward will be. Since the other party was also a priest, and he was also the priest of the oldest and most powerful god, Denzel did not use the most honorable words such as "greatest, greatest".
Dongzi smiled and said, "Then are you also attending this rally today?"
Denzel said casually for some reason: "After unloading the grain, if it is still early, I will go to participate." ”
Dongzi then smiled and said, "Then the god of Kuspot may give you a reward." ”
Denzel immediately understood that he was talking about the previous night, so he also laughed and said, "Thank you for your good words." "There is neither contrived nor cowardice. Z came to think very much in his heart.
Between the buildings not far away, a huge temple as high as a ten-story building suddenly appeared! The whole body was as smooth as the purest white jade, and the texture was as crystal clear as a gem, and even developed a Q array of milky white moving halos. It is like a strange white gem as big as a mountain, showing its shocking power and extraordinary noble nature!
Dongzi looked at it and secretly admired it for a while, but suddenly found that the people gathered around the temple were all dressed ordinarily or even simply. Look at the black crowd. There is no q of the sumptuous texts. He couldn't help but ask Denzel: "Are the rich people in the city too lazy?
Denzel said with a slightly disdainful expression: "The rich people in the area are just misers who have no ambitions and are afraid all day long. So most of them believed in the nobleman and the guardian god Sienworth. They usually have nothing else to pursue except to change their methods to loot people's money. Sooner or later, it will be spurned by everyone!" The more contemptuous the more the words are written, and there is no half-hearted politeness.
Who knew the text, but saw the luxurious carriage inlaid with gold and silver, and drove briskly and slowly to the bottom of the temple. Out of it came several extravagant, pot-bellied tycoons, who were embraced by the Q mages and warriors. Mightily entered the temple.
Dongzi laughed and said, "Who are those rich people? ”
Unexpectedly, Denzel immediately shook his head and said, "Those few are not local rich people, but the leaders of the Chamber of Commerce from the eastern coastal lands. Z was inspired by High Priest O'Connor. Maybe Wen will join our church soon. He continued to write with joy on his face: "In that case, the speed of development of our church will be even higher! For forty years, the temple was a rented room from an innkeeper, and the wise and pious High Priest O'Connor, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, spread the splendor of God's teachings to the people of all directions. Let them take refuge under the wings of the Holy Spirit like a long river returning to the sea, and enjoy the strongest and most peaceful order of happiness. Now this temple is the largest temple within a radius of thousands of miles!"
He was full of pride and wanted to continue writing. But I heard Dongzi smile in a special tone and asked, "Is it? really that charismatic?" There were two points of doubt in his tone. Denzel suddenly came to his senses, after all, the other party was the priest of the oldest qi element god, and he involuntarily brought a few words "most" in his words, which annoyed others. So he hurriedly remedied: "The temple is almost here, wait until you go." High Priest O'Connor will thank you for your help in person. If you need any help in this area, you can always come to our church. 23hh.cc There's nothing in this city that our church can't do. Dongzi smiled and said nothing, and when the procession passed under the tall buildings of the Arc de Triomphe, he looked up and wrote on it the words that were very tempting to the people at the bottom: All believers under the Holy Spirit are brothers.
Dongzi smiled secretly in his heart: It's a pity, some "brothers" are here to make luxury carriages, and some "brothers" are *q walking on old legs.
On the other side of the huge Sizhuang Houde City, the cyan medium temple of Q slightly resembles a pyramid stands majestically. The thick and majestic beveled temple body is carved with huge angular heads, many mages in battle postures, holding magic staffs, and warriors holding shields and swords, as well as many carvings representing a life of abundance. It looks like a huge relief building in Block Q. It is showing people a long scroll of a certain history.
On the open bluestone square in front of the temple. Dozens of beautifully made carriages were parked, with flags of various chambers of commerce, such as the Nodachia Gem Chamber of Commerce, the Charlie Matt Chamber of Commerce, the Northern Leather Goods Association, and so on, and there were also a mighty carriage supported by steel parked next to it. It was also guarded by more than fifty heavily armed warriors and well-dressed mid-class mages.
And in the depths of the temple, Da Gong patted the thick round table without any manners, and shouted at another bearded strong man who was as strong as a black bear and wore thick leather armor: "Last night was the best opportunity to exterminate the armed forces of the Church of Cusport! Why did you just slightly harass Q and left?! Now that they are back in the city, it will be difficult to destroy them again! You have ruined my big business!" The Grand Duke's face was as angry as red coal, and he was so angry that he seemed to want to eat people.
The bearded man with a rough body and muscles as strong as a big rock sat on his thick wooden chair with a big grin* on his face, and said coldly: "Grand Duke Youenxi, until you have not delivered enough gold to my brother, our tribe is not obliged to work for you! There are also a large number of priests and mages to assist. Our tribe will have to pay a terrible price to have a chance to annihilate them completely. But, why do we do this?!"
The Grand Duke shouted angrily: "Don't you have the strongest compound bow? Don't you have the most powerful spear-throwing tactics? Don't you have powerful mobile ballistae and light fire oil projectiles?
The barbarian said coldly: "Bows and arrows and javelins are Q, but you just let us make a show in advance, and we naturally won't bring too much." As for the mobile ballistas and fire oil projectiles, all of which are placed in the base camp in the mountains to defend against dragons and purple insects and other large monsters, how can they be brought out casually?"
Dagong trembled angrily, and even the neat gold silk blue suit trembled continuously: "When you asked for money and land before, I treated you badly that time? Then turn the hard fist into the old meat of the Q stall! The clean-up work will be much easier in the future. But now they're still hard to bite."
The strong man and barbarian wrote impatiently: "I have already written! This is your own business! Our tribe can do as much as you have as much money as you have! If you give us enough gold last night." We'll do everything we can to help you kill them! You know, our tribe is also a trustworthy tribe. Didn't the previous times you do things for you out of your strength? When did you relent? But this time you didn't send the money in advance! So don't put the blame on us!"
The senior priest, who was wearing a brown knee-length priest's robe on the outside and a noble costume on the inside, stepped forward and persuaded: "Forget it, forget it, it's just a mistake." Don't hurt the harmony that has been hurt for many years because of Q mistakes. There are many opportunities for cooperation in the future. He patiently persuaded the great justice: "Actually, it's a good thing that they didn't kill their church armaments." If you really kill them all. The Church of Cusport will know right away. We have united with their barbarian tribes. Then today they may use the temple as a fortress to rally the believers to fight to the death against us. And it will take at least four days for your army and our church's armed forces to return. Four days, maybe something will happen!" Seeing that Grand Duke Youenxi's face softened slightly, he continued to analyze: "Their local church is armed, then they won't suspect that our parties have already joined forces. Wait until the Q day of the foundation day of Sizhuang Houde City. They will act according to the original assassination plan. And our army just rushed back to wipe them out! Although we will encounter a strong confrontation, at least we can avoid future troubles. ”
Grand Duke Youenxi was still unwilling, but he immediately thought: I am a nobleman! I am a nobleman who is about to accomplish great things! How can I be so out of shape because of this incident? This time I was really too impulsive, and it really damaged the good image that I had worked so hard to build.
He secretly glanced at everyone in the room, and found that everyone was not surprised, so he comforted himself with a little peace of mind: Fortunately, they didn't care, otherwise it would be really undignified and polite.
So he tried his best to put on a stern face, like a calm general, and said in an unusually "generous" tone: "I will not blame the past for this incident." Let's discuss the next step Q. ”
The brute, who was as strong as a bear, was sneering at the Q after hearing the Q words "the past is not to blame", intending to protest. was secretly pulled by the brown-robed old priest next to him. The old man deliberately stood in the way between the two of them and enthusiastically introduced them: "These representatives of the Chamber of Commerce. Brought the results of their Chamber of Commerce's discussions. Please take a look at it. ”
The Grand Duke hurriedly tidied up the clothes that were slightly wrinkled because of excitement, and immediately took a few letters with a dignified face, and opened the very "formal" QQ to look at it. When Z finished the last Q letter, he finally couldn't help but smile: "Now with the support of most of the chambers of commerce in Sizhuang Houde City, and now with the full assistance of your peripheral chambers of commerce, we will definitely be able to uproot the Cusport church within five hundred miles of the surrounding area! At that time, most of the trade between our human kingdom and the Bendu Empire will fall into our pocket!
Several representatives of the Chamber of Commerce also echoed him: "The Rosenfeld Chamber of Commerce and the Grosvenor Chamber of Commerce, which have dealings with the Cusport Church, are well-known financial chambers and usurers in the eastern coastal areas, and many local mine owners and artisanal owners have been deceived by their despicable tricks and oppressed by their vicious business methods, and they have all fallen into the financial trap set by them, and have almost been bankrupt! Even some ordinary trade chambers have been infringed upon and have no choice but to sell their property. became their vassal. Now that the Church of Custport has lured wolves into the house in order to expand its power, how can we sit idly by? Hearing that Grand Duke Wen plans to unite with the Venerable Sienworth Church to overthrow it, we are naturally obliged to help!" They hesitated and asked, "Before we came, we listened to the priests of the God of Sienworth, and you have recently organized a private chamber of commerce of the Q family, I don't know what kind of business you do? If there is a business, we can also share the Q pie." ”
Grand Duke Youenxi laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth: "The church of Cusport has a large influence within a radius of thousands of miles, and it is also involved in a lot of commercial transactions. Once they are wiped out, this chamber of commerce can take over their power! But don't get me wrong. It's not my private chamber of commerce, it's my involvement, backed by the Sienworth church. It is a consortium composed of local alchemy potion associations, middle and low-grade magic equipment manufacturing associations, trade chambers of commerce, etc. In the past Q period, those financial mortgage chambers have been very active, defrauding aristocrats and harming the industrial and commercial guilds of various cities. We're worried about a repeat of the Six Hundred Years Money, so we're joining forces to fight these insatiable crocodiles!" and said to them with a kind smile, "If you're interested, you can join in." ”
Several representatives of the Chamber of Commerce looked at each other with excitement in their eyes, joining this Chamber of Commerce can not only defend against those hateful financial chambers of commerce, but also strengthen their own strength with the help of Sizhuang Houde City, a major city of north-south trade. You can even climb up to the Church of the Nobility and Guardian God of Sienworth, and this church has a wide group of believers among the nobility, and it can be very convenient for the traders who travel from all over the world to send letters, and even live to some privileges from the noble lords. It's so tempting.
So they eagerly wrote: "We will definitely consider this matter seriously!"
When Denzel instructed the crowd to unload the piles of grain from the cart. Dongzi found that this temple was strange - although his main building was a beautiful temple with a bright white, but the supporting buildings around it were like medium-sized fortresses and pocket fortresses, and the so-called "walls" connected to each other were actually just shrunken city walls, and the thick walls formed by the fusion of large stones were enough to parallel three to four heavily armed people, and there were some medium-sized "tower" semi-enclosed acancies built at intervals. The surrounding buildings were also designed to military standards, with walls thick enough to withstand the impact of battering rams under Q, and only the middle half of the body could be leaned out of the windows, and all of them were made of fine oak that had been set on fire, and from a distance it looked as if it was between a fortress with a Q pedestal or a square or column. It is closely monitored by the "compound eyes" of the window in the Q row.
Monitoring?Dongzi suddenly sensed the energy fluctuations of Q kinds of probing spells according to the * thunder method. It's sweeping back and forth lightly and meticulously, which is really uncomfortable.
He turned around again. This place is a large warehouse of the church of Cusport, but the more it feels, the more it feels like a medium-sized fortress, except for an open space in the middle for loading and unloading living animals, all the buildings, including the so-called warehouse, are a bunker-like structure formed by the fusion of "stone plastic"! Next to it, there can be a murderous weapons depot like a prison, and there are several middle doors and gatehouses for rapid distribution of weapons. And the granary directly opposite seems to be more like a half-buried cellar, and the grain is not piled higher and higher, but piled deeper and deeper. Look straight into the depths of the dark and cold cellar.
Aren't they afraid of suspicion, or are they deliberately making such a majestic appearance to show their power?
Dongzi was thinking about it, when suddenly Z walked into the distance, the holy warrior mentor Hejin who exuded the charm of a mature woman, and the middle-aged middle priest who was wearing a jade white robe. He warmly greeted the "Servant of the God of Air, Pastor Elilu", with great respect, and after the two sides were polite, he turned to Denzelven: "The High Priest is holding this week's priesthood, and I have heard that Wen has returned, and now I want you to go to the ceremony." ”
Denzel immediately understood something, and asked with a happy face, "Really, what else did the high priest write?"
The middle-aged priest in a white robe smiled and said, "There's nothing to write, you'll know when you go." Suddenly, he couldn't help but add a Q sentence: "You just need to know that the Holy Spirit is the most just!"
Seeing Denzel happily turning around and running away, he invited Dongzi again: "You and your friends can stay in the VIP room outside our church, where the environment is very good. The servants are specially trained to serve the rites and make you feel at home. The high priest has some things to deal with in the past few days, and when he finishes dealing with them in a few days, he will thank you in person with the most solemn etiquette and talk to you about the affairs of the two churches. ”
Unexpectedly, Dongzi pointed to Mackensia and the others and said, "If I am still here, it is inconvenient for me to live here with you." But a few of my friends don't have a place to live for the time being, so I wonder if I can stay with you for the time being?"
The white-robed priest evaded and asked, "Where are you going?"
Dongzi muttered and said, "It's not that I'm leaving the city, it's just that there are some things in this city that need to live in another place." ”
When the priest heard this, he smiled and said, "I see, then you should take the time to come to our temple seat." Our High Priest is eager to befriend righteous men like you. Your friends can certainly stay here. It's no problem to stay for Q months!"
Relieved, Mackenzie and Giselle followed the priest to the exclusive hotel outside the temple, while Grimm, Danella, and Lelin hurried out of the temple with him.
But Grimm still reluctantly asked, "Why don't you live in a free place to live?" ”
But Dongzi shook his head and said, "If you want to go back to live, I won't stop you." I'm not going to go anyway! it's heavily guarded, it's full of detection spells, and the atmosphere doesn't appeal to me, and living there is like living in a prison for me. ”
Grimm was dumbfounded: "No, I'm just too simple in the shape of the building, and as for the detection spell, which castle doesn't have it." They love Z, then let them Z, anyway, it's us who save money, not them. ”
saw Dongzi shake his head and said, "I love purity and don't like to be stared at." In the text, I heard bursts of cheers from the direction of the temple: "The Holy Spirit has blessed Denzel! The Holy Spirit has blessed Denzel!" This voice was as noisy and continuous as the tide of the sea, as if countless fans had seen the entertainment star Q: "Praise you, Denzel, you are our pride, you are our example! May the blessings of the Holy Spirit accompany you forever!"
Dongzi shook his head slightly at the tall and magnificent white temple and sighed: "Those believers under the temple can be regarded as Q species, don't ask the common people to ask ghosts and gods." ”
