Chapter 686: The Human Heart Is King!

If there is ten points of light in the world, nine points are in the Holy City of Light!

This is a phrase from the teachings of the Temple of Light, used to describe the immaculate splendor of the Temple's General Society, the Holy City of Light.

However, of course, Tang En's destination this time was not the Holy City of Light, but the Northern Temple Association, the Holy Light City, known as the Little Light City!

It's just a reversal of the order of the words, but the scale of the two is not the same. However, the Temple of Light is the Temple of Light after all, and even if it is a small Northern Association, it is enough to make people who see the Holy Light City for the first time sigh and be shocked.

Tang En was undoubtedly the first time he had seen the Holy Light City, so in the early morning five days later, when the carriage came outside the Holy Light City, Tang En, who had lifted the curtain, couldn't help but be stunned.

It is located in a plain, surrounded by green water. As far as the eye can see, there are countless old-fashioned house buildings, high and low, undulating, row upon row. Because the exterior wall roof tiles are only white and yellow, they not only look messy, but have a patchwork of beauty. In the middle of the complex is a pure white oval vault, the tallest in the field of vision, designed like a moon of stars, shining with thousands of rays of light.

At a glance, there is no luxury and sophistication in the Holy Light City. Yes, it's just a kind of heavy precipitation that comes from pressing the surface. Not only the vicissitudes of history, but also the indescribable sacred ethereal, leading people to kneel and worship.

Stunned for a while, he came back to his senses, Rao is Tang En has always lacked a good impression of the Temple of Light, and he couldn't help but pout and secretly say - he looks good!

Although it was his first time here, Don had done his homework a lot. It is known that the oval vault is the real northern temple, and it has been nearly a thousand years since it was built. As for the dense housing buildings around. I kept coming here after that. Temporal ...... who voluntarily settled in the temple In time. This also formed the current Holy Light City.

It is worth mentioning that the Holy Light City does not have a city gate wall. In other words, you can enter the city from any direction. This design is probably achieved in the sense of fairness, equality of all beings, and not rejection of any believer.

......

Soon after entering the city, Don and the others had to get out of the carriage and walk on foot. This is not to say that there are any regulations here, but that the housing buildings in the city are so dense that they squeeze the road space, and the horse-drawn carriages are basically unable to pass freely.

There are also various shops lining the road. It's just that there doesn't seem to be a dedicated commercial area, and it's interspersed with private houses, and you can barely make out it by relying on signboards.

Tang En walked among them, turned his head and looked around, and his eyes were all similar peaceful faces, most of them were dressed in robes, and he couldn't see the slightest nervousness and anxiety, and he couldn't smell any fame and fortune. Even the cat and dog sleeping in front of the door were squinting towards the sun with lazy and satisfied expressions...... A qiē seems so quiet and peaceful. Calm and soothing.

After about five minutes of walking, the road gradually began to slope gently. Then. Suddenly

Syllable...... Syllable...... Syllable......

There are bells from far and near, melodious and tactful, and when you hear it, you can't help but think of the old old clock with green mottled colors, gently vibrating, and there is little aftersound......

After a pause, Don En glanced around, and found that everyone had unanimously put down what they were doing, stopped, and stood quietly in one direction, closing his eyes, and touching his heart with one hand, his expression was infinitely soothing and peaceful.

The whole street fell silent at this point, and only the distant bell could be heard, striking at intervals of a few seconds. A layer of solemn atmosphere like a thin veil, gently pressed, not stained with dust, not stained with fireworks.

The ghost made the gods, and Tang En couldn't help but close his eyes, his brows first furrowed slightly, and then gradually calmed down......

The bell rang nine times, about a minute before and after.

The sound fell, and the noise of rustling sounded again. The walk that should walk, the talk that should talk, a qiē return to normal.

"Huh......" let out a long breath, and Tang En slowly opened his eyes, his gaze a little shocked. Nima, is this the power of faith, was it almost purified and brainwashed......

Of course, this is not only the power of faith, people are social animals - as long as they are still in the world, they will inevitably be affected by the surrounding environment, the feelings of others around them, and so on.

And this is the City of Holy Light, a gathering place for all those who are steadfast in their faith, and if they stay here for a long time, they will be influenced or even assimilated, which is almost an inevitable result.

At this moment, Don began to understand Xia Wei'an's way of thinking and acting in a little bit, living and growing up in such an environment, I think this is the case for anyone......

"President...... President?"

"Well, oh......" Under the continuous call of a high-level old man, Tang En came back to his senses and shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, "I'm sorry, I remembered some things, I was distracted." Well, keep walking. ”

"It's fine. The high-level old man shook his head disapprovingly, and said with a sigh of understanding, "Actually, every time I come here, I also feel a little touched, and I feel that I am ...... Uh, it's dirty, it's out of place here. ”

Don chuckled, "Hehe, we're dirty, but that's because we often wipe the dust on the bright surface...... Somebody has to do that, doesn't they?"

The high-level old man was stunned when he heard this, and then his face was full of admiration: "The president has thorough insights, and his subordinates admire him." ”

"Hah, what is this. Don't forget, I'm a great benevolent person in Shanhai City. ”

......

After chatting for about half an hour, through countless streets, he finally reached the bottom of the oval vault.

The real Northern Temple will always look like a palace from the outside. Of course, it's not the lavish kind, but it's an ancient building with grandeur and history.

After arriving here, Tang En deliberately took a step behind, and then watched the two high-level old men bypass the main hall in a familiar way, which should be about to enter from the back of the temple.

From this point, it can be seen that in the eyes of some big figures in the Temple of Light, the Bounty Hunters Guild has always been a puppet who can't get on the stage, calling on him when he needs it, and discarding it when he doesn't need it.

At the side door at the back of the temple, several light knights guarding there seemed to be familiar with them, and after the high-level old man stepped forward to explain his intentions, a light knight nodded and entered the inside to report.

After waiting for a few minutes, Don raised his eyebrows slightly, and felt that the atmosphere around him seemed to be a little wrong. After observing it without a trace, he found that the faces of the bright knights who had been quite enthusiastic before were extremely ugly, and the glances they glanced at were very unkind.

The two high-level old men were a little cringe, looking at themselves from time to time, as if they were a little puzzled.

What's the situation...... Just when Tang En was puzzled, the Knight of Light who had gone in to pass the word before came with a middle-aged clergyman dressed in a white robe with an indifferent expression.

With a faint glance, the middle-aged clergyman waved his hand, and said in a somewhat impatient tone, "Come with me." The words fell, and he turned straight away.

Tang En and the others naturally didn't dare to delay, and when they heard this, they hurriedly walked through the side door, and when they passed by those few light knights, they could obviously hear a few cold snorts, and they were very dissatisfied.

More than ten steps away from the side door, Tang En's sleeves were gently pulled, and when he turned his head, he saw a high-level old man with a puzzled face, and asked in a low voice, "President, why don't you give some money to those knights this time? ”

Nima, don't say it sooner...... The corners of Tang En's mouth twitched a few times when he heard this, and he was suddenly stunned.

Under Harry's coercive confession before, Zachary was indeed very cooperative, answering whatever he asked, without the slightest concealment. But some inconspicuous little things, such as coming here to 'pay tribute to charity' and so on, not to mention that Don can't think of asking, even Zachary himself probably won't remember......

"Ahem, I was a little worried just now...... Well, I'm distracted, this is my mistake, we'll make up for it later. ”

The high-level old man couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, but Zachary was worried about whether he would be able to carry the anger of the temple next, so he was distracted.

At this time, Tang En really understood, touched his nose, walked a few steps quickly, came to the middle-aged clergyman's side, and said politely: "I'm tired of passing it back and forth, be a little careful, and I hope that the adults won't dislike it." ”

With a flick of his sleeves, several large gold tickets were stuffed into the palms of the opponent's robes. After a pause, the middle-aged clergyman turned his head to see, his indifferent expression instantly eased greatly, and he nodded with a chuckle, as if he was satisfied.

Seeing this, Tang En smiled humbly and breathed a sigh of relief, and the strange sense of restraint brought by what he had seen and heard since entering the city disappeared in an instant.

Wow, what faith assimilates, brainwashes, purifies...... Sure enough, people's hearts are king! Greed can prevail!!
