Chapter 5 Perception

"Nether, are you going to forsake God's favor?"

The sunlight streamed down the window to the bed, and Adam woke up from his sleep, a little later than usual.

Last night's encounter made him still have some lingering palpitations at the moment, but fortunately, it was a blessing in disguise.

Adam looked at everything around him, and all of a sudden, the sounds, the smells, and the light seemed to explode, and everything around him was reflected in his mind, as if a certain boundary had been broken, and everything around him became extremely familiar, and he had a feeling that he was under control.

"Perception?" Adam's state of perceiving everything did not last long, and soon subsided.

Before last night, when he smelled a smell, he smelled a smell, and when he saw a picture, he saw a picture, and now in that period of time, all perceptions were integrated, and even could collide with other people's perceptions.

If he hadn't been able to exit the perceptual state in time last night and continue to fight hard, it was very likely that he would have been completely covered by the perception of the black smoke werewolf, and then he would have been affected by various perceptions, and his eyes would have turned black and he fainted.

With a sigh of relief, Adam tidied up the attic, listened to the movement downstairs, and took the book of "Divine Words" in his hand and walked down.

Downstairs, Brother Fra was talking to Maggie and seemed to ask about the tuition.

In the airspace city behind Luoya, there is the Shenghui Hustle Seminary, and almost all the monks and nobles in the vicinity graduated from this seminary, but the tuition fees are too high for ordinary civilians.

Although Brother Fra was very optimistic about Adam, it was impossible for him to pay this amount of money for Adam, after all, he was not rich himself.

What's more, Adam didn't want to go to that seminary, why did he go?

Looking at Adam who came down with the "Divine Word", Fra's eyes were full of regret, regretting that Adam was born in the wrong era, in the early years when the seminary was not reformed, ordinary students only needed to pass the test and buy a copy of the "Divine Word" to enroll.

However, with the increase of aristocratic power, most of the seminaries have been reformed, and the threshold for entry has become higher, and it has become extremely difficult for ordinary civilians to get started.

Although the seminary monks were better resourced as a result, and the status of the monks became more and more honorable, even as a beneficiary of Brother Fra, he still sighed a little.

"Brother Frah, you haven't been here for days. Adam came running over in surprise, and then his face became full of reluctance, but he still handed out the "Divine Word" and put it in front of Fra: "Give it back to you." ”

"There's been a lot going on lately. "Looking at Adam's performance, the young monk became more and more sorry, but he also took the book of "Divine Sayings", although he was good, but he was still not rich in nature, although there was a reason why he refused some inappropriate 'gifts' from the nobles in the city.

It was only after receiving the "Prophetic Word" that Fra opened the book, and in between, there was a small piece of thin wood, on which was a picture made of charcoal, modeled after the illustration next to it.

Uncle Aris would do some carpentry, and the wood chips, along with the charcoal, were found in his little carpenter's room, and Adam was ready to be a stepping stone to the painter these days.

"Did you draw this?" said Fra was pleasantly surprised, the charcoal was too rough, and he was painted on a piece of wood, and the whole picture seemed too rudimentary, but it was not difficult to see the similarity between the picture and the illustration in the scriptures.

"Hmm!" Adam seemed embarrassed, and with a humming sound, he lowered his head and stopped talking.

"Looks like it worked!" Adam knows the bargaining trick well, what do you do when you want to make a request and are afraid that others won't agree?

Make a more excessive request first, and then wait for the other party to refuse, and then make the original request, at this time the chance of the other party agreeing will greatly increase.

Although the situation of Adam and Fra is a little different, the reason is the same, let Fra be optimistic about his talent in theology, but he wants to fund Adam and Fra but he does not have that ability.

So when a slightly inferior alternative is presented, Fra will choose to compensate in a state of guilt, even if it will make him slightly violate his principles.

In a way, Adam was consuming Fra's kindness.

"You also have a good talent for painting. Fra did not hesitate to praise herself, pinched the "Divine Word" in her hand, and said with some joy.

After a moment's hesitation, Fra said, "I know a few painters, and I'll talk to them later, maybe I'll get Adam to learn something from him." ”

"Thank you, Brother Fra!" Maggie pushed her nephew as she delighted herself to bring her some meatloaf to her, but she refused.

"If it works, I'll come and take you there early tomorrow morning. After saying this, Fra withdrew from Boku's house and whispered, "God will favor the believers." ”

Looking at the back of Fura leaving, Adam grinned and said to himself in his heart: "God will not favor anyone, only myself!"

"Adam?" Maggie's voice made Adam turn his head and smile shyly.

"It's great that Adam has a talent for painting and can be helped by Brother Fra. Maggie was very happy, and when her nephew came, there was an extra mouth in the house.

Although Adam is very capable of working, it is not that the more people who work, the more income will be, and there is a limit to the income of a family.

Adam smiled, walked into the kitchen, lifted the basket of pickle cakes and walked out.

Except for the incident of the powerful kind last night, everything is still under his control.

He collected a lot of information, among which in addition to the information of various residents in the vicinity, the most important one was naturally the information of the church in the southern district.

Through the purchase of materials by the purchasers of various materials in the South Side Church, as well as the arrangements for the baptism and worship of the believers, Adam analyzed the information that the South Side Church may need to be renovated, and the focus should be on the frescoes.

He chose to become a painter with this in mind.

Adam had an in-depth analysis of Fra, who was born into a nobleman, but because he was not the eldest son, he was sent a sum of money and kicked out of the house when he became an adult.

With that money, Fra entered the seminary, and most of the nobles' concubines would choose this way out.

Perhaps in the seminary, under the influence of some ascetics, Fra had a strong sense of justice, and was very unhappy with the nobles raising the threshold of the seminary, and did not even return to the family territory after graduation, but came to Loya.

Zao Ya also refused to be wooed by the aristocracy, and there were no connections here.

Adam admired people like Fra, but that didn't stop Adam from taking advantage of this naïve monk.

When he was unable to sponsor Adam's trip to seminary, this naïve young monk with little connections found that Adam had a talent for painting and remembered the church to repair the frescoes.

Adam remembered the night of the burning, the demeanor of Fra's sword, with his identity and ability, in fact, as long as he was willing to speak, he could obtain a lot of benefits.

According to Adam's judgment, allowing Adam to join in the repair of the mural as an apprentice and follow the painter should be within the psychological bottom line of Fra.

Being able to enter the church and stay there from morning to night is a lot of intelligence that can be gleaned during this time.

At that time, whether it is to use the church to suppress Baron Mansra and seek the opportunity to cross the wall, or to explore the church's defensive layout of the Roa side wall, he can have more initiative.

The most important thing is that as a local church, he must be the most well-informed, and from here he should be able to get some information about the movement of personnel in the church.

"I've done a lot of cover-ups, but one day that man will find Loya!" Adam thought, and after selling a piece of pickled cabbage, he put down the cover cloth, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his face with the back of his hand, and gently rubbed the < scar on his face by the way.

Of course, even if he fails, Adam has nothing to lose, everything is just Fra's spontaneous behavior, and it has nothing to do with him Adam, the only thing he is afraid of is that Fra's bottom line falls too fast, and he directly uses his connections to send him to the seminary.

Lowering the bottom line of a good person is as disgusting as falling from the second floor, and Adam knows this, but he doesn't regret it.

No matter what his ideals are, what his hobbies are, or what great beliefs he has, the premise is to live.

Fra entered the church through the side door, and after nodding to the other monks, she became a little hesitant.

He had never done such a thing as using his connections for the benefit of others.

But in the end, Fra came to the painter.
