Chapter 186: The Temple Night's Watchman
It is the time of the 'spring' and summer' 'handover', and the daytime is relatively long, from noon to dark, a total of about 4 hours. */.//*
Within these four hours, all the thirteen oases that originally belonged to the Pompeii Kingdom returned to the Pompeii Kingdom, and the occupiers from the four countries were all killed by the anti-water Pompey soldiers, and none of them escaped. The banner of the king of Pompeii fluttered again at the head of every town, in front of the lord's mansion, and in front of the temple of Hades.
All the cultivators were stationed in various cities, and the defense of the town was taken over by the anti-water Pompey soldiers, and the bandits who were sent out to wave their flags and shout were withdrawn to Pompeii according to the order they received in advance, because the lLCt sequence was originally the city guard of Pompeii.
The bandits left with light armor and quick knives, but when they returned, they all changed into heavy armor, and each of them had at least three healthy horses by his side, all of them looking elated.
Before the bandits rushed back to Pompeii City due to the change of heavy armor, one by one the scouts had already been sent out and rushed back to Pompeii City in advance.
Tell Your Highness that Hami City has been successfully recovered!
Tell Your Highness that Shanglin City has been successfully recovered!
Tell Your Highness,......"
Scouts flew in from afar, knelt down before the western gate of Pompeii, and told Princess Jeanne the news of the victory. Although the victory had been expected for a long time, listening to these news, the corners of the eyes of Princess Jenny and the palace 'maids' and 'women' were moist, and many of the 'maids' and 'women' were even more 'excited' and cried bitterly.
Praise Lord Hades, our kingdom of Pompeii has finally been restored! Suddenly, a 'maid' and 'woman' fell to her knees and muttered.
Praise to Master Hades! Praise to Master Philip! The little boy Brolin also fell to his knees with a 'excited' face, and seemed to have forgotten that he was rude to Master Hades more than ten days ago!
Praise to Lord Hades, praise to Master Philip! Hatton and the other boys also knelt down and prayed like Brolin.
Listening to these nondescript words, Princess Jenny and the 'maids' and 'women' were stunned, and then Princess Jenny also muttered: Praise Lord Hades, praise Lord Philip......"
Yes, the kingdom of Pompeii was able to recover, and even become more powerful than before, not by some ethereal Lord Hades, but by the Lord Philip in the palace!
Praise Lord Hades, praise Lord Philip! The 'attendants' and 'women' of the royal palace also said in unison and sincerely. Naturally, they all understood who the Kingdom of Pompeii could restore.
I don't know why Mr. would help His Highness, but without Philip, nothing would have happened.
......
Praise Hades! Our kingdom of Pompeii is back again!
On top of the thirteen oases, people happily poured into the streets, pouring into the taverns and celebrating happily.
Inside a tavern in Hami City.
Ladies and gentlemen, have you heard? The great god Hades has performed a miracle, and the Oasis of Pompeii has been restored to its original state! A red-nosed drinker took a large sip of ale and shouted loudly.
Yes, yes, this is the news from the king who came to recover Hami City, so can there be a fake? Another old drinker happily mr, not only has the Pompeii Oasis been restored to its original state, but now Pompeii City has been reopened, and Her Royal Highness Jenny has returned to the palace. I've lived in Pompeii all my life, and I thought I would never go back in this life, but I didn't expect it......"
What a miracle, what a miracle! The red-nosed drinker shouted, according to those brothers, the Pompeii Oasis became the same overnight! It was precisely because of this miracle that the lLCt, who used to be bandits, sincerely served Her Highness Jeanne!
God bless Pompey! Praise the great Hades! The old drinker raised his large wooden glass and said in a loud voice.
God bless Pompey!
Praise Hades!
The drinkers shouted and raised their glasses together.
In the crowd, an elderly 'waiter' was also smiling happily, and a trace of tears appeared in the corner of his eye.
After a drink, the drinkers also sat down one after another, and continued to talk happily about Pompey's restoration, when suddenly, a drinker looked at the old waiter and shouted: "Aha! Look! Old Hans is so happy that he cried!"
At the same time, the drinkers looked at the old waiter, and saw that the silver-haired old man's eyes were full of tears, but his face was smiling like a chrysanthemum 'flower'.
Old Hans, I heard that you used to be the night watchman of Lord Hades' temple in the capital! You have served Lord Hades all your life, have you ever seen Lord Hades perform such a miracle?
Haha! This is the first time everyone has heard of such a miracle, how can old Hans see this fellow? The old drinker is happily mr, but I don't think old Hans will pour us ale here anymore! This old fellow must return to the royal city and continue to 'serve' Lord Hades!
The drinkers laughed and continued to discuss merrily, and no one noticed that the old waiter had quietly walked out of the tavern.
Old Hans walked on the street of Hongfeng Street in Hami City, and the crowd of people was happy, muttering.
I once thought that I would never leave Pompeii for the rest of my life, but I had to leave when I was old.
I once thought that I would never go back, but who knew that Mr today came the news of Pompey's restoration and the reopening of the royal city!
It's time to go back!" old Hans muttered to himself, and his eyes looked at the street corner. There, there are already several familiar figures, all of whom have been exiled from the royal city to the acquaintances of Hami City......
A moment later, several carriages followed the class back to the king's division, heading in the direction of Pompeii......
......
The bandit army was temporarily recruited, but it was only responsible for waving the flag under a city, and then entering the city to spread the news of the reopening of the royal city, and after Her Royal Highness the princess presided over the news of the restoration of the country, he returned to Pompeii with the equipment and horses seized from the occupiers.
After each army of bandits, a few to a dozen wagons of all sizes followed. Many people in Pompey who were living abroad knew the news of the reopening of the royal city, and they were unwilling to wait for a moment, so they followed the royal division towards the city of Pompeii with some living supplies.
The distance between Hami City and Pompeii City is more than 200 miles, because there are large oases outside the two cities, so the walking distance on the desert is only more than 100 miles, and after leaving Hami City for more than 100 miles, Old Hans is familiar with Pompeii Oasis.
Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the familiar 'fertile' black soil, Old Hans also became extremely 'excited' while sitting on the flatbed carriage.
When he left, there was no life, and the black and red 'colored' igneous rock was gone. 'Fertile' black soil with some reddish particles inside. Although it will be half a day, there is already a trace of greenery coming out of the place where there is a water source. The great lake under Pompeii is already about half of its water.
Overnight, the Pompeii Oasis can be restored to its original state. It seems that Lord Hades really took pity on the Pompeyians...... Old Hans looked at all this and muttered.
The convoy followed the Triumphant King to the west 'gate' of Pompeii, and the Triumphant King stopped and the convoy also stopped.
Above the city, there was a figure of a purple-haired 'woman' wearing a crown, and the old Hans looked at the purple-haired young 'girl', and his eyes were also extremely 'excited': It's her!
Old Hans, who had lived in Pompeii all his life, recognized this young 'girl' at a glance as Her Royal Highness Jeanne, the third princess. The city-states in the desert are all small countries, and the princesses and princes are not in the habit of living in seclusion, and as the night watchman of the temple of Hades in Pompeii, old Hans has also seen this little princess many times in the past when the king went to the temple to worship.
Tell Your Highness that the Eighth Squad of the First Brigade of the City Guards of Pompeii City has recovered Hami City and returned victorious! The former bandit leader Zamuhe led his brothers to dismount, knelt down in front of Pompeii, and said respectfully.
You've worked hard. Zamuhe, Pompey has returned to the country, you have the merit of the first battle, and the eighth squad will be changed to the eighth brigade from now on, and you will be the captain. Now, let's take everyone into the city to rest!" Her Royal Highness Jeanne nodded gracefully, and said slowly according to the words agreed with Lord Philip.
The captain Zamu was stunned, and hurriedly kowtowed, thank you, thank you, thank you, Your Highness!
In this battle, lLCt and his subordinates just 'shot' a round of arrow rain before the Hami defenders reacted, killing more than a dozen Blackwater people who didn't wake up, and the rest of the LCt basically didn't see anything, it was all commanded by Lord Shosta, and the lLCt just occupied the city 'gate' and then spread some news!
A brigade is full of 1,000 people, which is really a great surprise for his brothers, who have never exceeded 150 people.
The inhabitants of Pompeii, who had come from Hami, were also very happy to drive their carriages into Pompeii and go back to pack up their homes.
Old Hans came to the temple in a corner of the city, and his face was full of excitement.
Inside this majestic building, lLCt has been there for decades.
The beliefs of the native inhabitants of the MiG Corridor are extremely complex, and Hades is one of the more common beliefs in the vicinity of the kingdom of Pompeii. However, unlike the Rakshasa faith, not everyone is very religious about the Hades faith, after all, this belief is not subject to baptismal rituals.
Hades is also an evil god in the hearts of believers, for this great god, believers are more afraid than worship, and this great god is not like the lord of the Rakshasa country who often sends miracles, so this Hades temple is also very deserted on weekdays.
Like the Temple of Hades in Pompeii, there is no full-time clergy, and only the elder Hans takes care of this huge building on weekdays.
He took out the key and opened the big 'door' of the temple, and old Hans's hands trembled slightly, and he pushed open the heavy big 'door'.
In the past, Old Hans himself was not very religious to Lord Hades, but lLCt has lived here for decades and has long regarded this place as his home. However, seeing that the Pompeii Oasis had been restored, lLCt suddenly believed that Lord Hades existed.
Old Hans entered the tall temple and saw that the hall was already covered with dust. In the corners of the walls, large cobwebs have appeared in many places, and they look very dilapidated.
Old Hans walked up to the statue of Hades and knelt down in prayer.
The statue of Hades, ten feet tall, is a masked heroic man, and in front of the LRT, there is a hideous hound with three heads. This is exactly what Hades looks like in local legend.
Lord Almighty Hades, thank you for your miracles that saved the Oasis of Pompeii and saved our kingdom of Pompeii...... Old Hans knelt reverently in front of the idol and muttered.
The palace of Pompeii, on the banks of the hot springs.
When these Pompeians returned to Pompeii, Chen Yuxiang paid attention to the actions of these people, intentionally or unintentionally. This old night watchman is naturally within the scope of LRT divine consciousness.
Well?
Looking at the kneeling prayer of Old Hans, Chen Yuxiang's brows furrowed suddenly.
The breath of the power of faith?~
