Jingle Bell ~~~~
Jingle Bell ~~~~
Jingle Bell ~~~~
Ji Yan picked up the gold and silver coins in the box again and again, and slowly let go of his hand to watch them fall and collide with each other, the jingling sound was simply a fairy music in the world, no matter how you listen to it, you can't get tired of listening to it!
Hey hey...... Ji Yan smirked, his small tongue could be seen in his open mouth, and his eyes narrowed into a curve were almost invisible.
The chest in front of him was a family heirloom of Old Virgin not long ago, and now it has become the property of Ji Yan, along with 18 gold coins and 215 silver coins inside!!
There is no doubt that the refined salt that Ji Yan took out is more than this price, and the old Vigien also said at the time that the lack will be made up in the future, but the former said very generously that the deal would be made, which made the old Vijne excited and incoherent.
"I've made a lot of money~~" Ji Yan couldn't put it down and played with Huang Cancan's gold coins, secretly calculating how many soft girl coins he could get. He remembered that the price of gold was more than 230 when he left, and a gold coin weighed about 15 grams, if the purity and the buyer's price were calculated, it would be calculated at 11 grams, and there would be nearly 30,000 soft girl coins, which was enough!!
You must know that the dozens of packets of salt that Ji Yan took out add up to about a hundred!
Real profiteering.
On this side, Ji Yanzhi is proudly calculating his gains, and on the other side, Old Vicion is also calculating.
He is not a short-sighted person like an ordinary village chief, and his experience as a young adult has given him far more insight and ...... than his peers Ambition!
In order to realize his ambitions, he ruthlessly sent his sons to the most dangerous flesh and blood battlefields, but God did not fulfill his wishes, and five of his six sons died on the battlefield, and only the youngest son, Scott, left the battlefield alive, but also lost half of his face and a right arm. If it weren't for his current master, Knight Captain Maurice, he wouldn't have guessed what would have happened.
Scott was deeply chilled by the methods of old Virgin, and father and son had not been in touch for years.
The gamble failed six times in a row, and the old Virgien lost almost everything, and the so-called ambition lost the soil gradually withered and withered, and finally became the head of the remote village of Mirap, living an ordinary life, silently waiting for death to come.
However, the arrival of Ji Yan made him see hope again!
"You will be my stepping stones, my hope to rise again!" Old Vigien muttered feverishly as he looked at the fine salt on the table, "but that's not enough!"
"There must be more in his hands!"
"I've got to tie him to my chariot and can't let him go!"
"I don't want to die like this, even if it will be a road of destruction, I will go further than anyone else!!" he clenched his fists, his joints creaked, and veins burst from under his dry skin, like a dying snake showing its last hideousness.
............
The next day.
Before Ji Yan got up and washed, he heard a knock on the door.
When I opened the door, it was old Virgin, who had changed into a new outfit, and his hair was combed, giving people a very spiritual feeling.
Ji Yan looked puzzled, and old Vyjen danced and gestured for a while, and finally reluctantly let the former know his intentions.
It turned out that today happened to be the day when Milap went to Main Town to "catch the market", no, Ji Yan glanced outside and found that most of the villagers had closed their doors and set off.
There are more than 20 large and small villages under the jurisdiction of Main Town, which is economically developed and prosperous, and the market is not open for a day. However, the first lord did not know whether it was for convenience management or for some reason to set the rule of "zoning and rushing to gather", which has been used to this day.
The villagers of Milap only go to the market once a week (group, it doesn't count if you go alone, there is also a certain danger), and the market is also a big "activity" for them, and everyone is in good spirits.
Ji Yan saw some of the frenzy that alerted him from the eyes of Old Virgin, but the more prosperous town of Maine was also his next target, so he didn't see it, packed up his things and set off with the army.
Nothing to say all the way.
"It took almost two hours, no wonder I was preparing so early. Mainzhen was in sight, Ji Yan secretly looked at the time, speechless for a while.
When they finally arrived at their destination, although they were too tired, the villagers couldn't help but cheer, cheered up, and quickened their pace towards the tall and majestic city wall in sight.
This world is not safe, as long as the financial resources are sufficient, human settlements will build high walls, and important buildings such as lords' palaces are built like military fortresses, which is also a major feature of this world.
After paying the entry tax, Ji Yan entered the market area with the flow of people, and suddenly the whole person was surrounded by the endless noise one after another, and instantly felt that he had returned to H City, with a strange sense of time and space disorder.
Old Virgien didn't stop, walking through the chaotic and crowded market area, and then in a flurry of twists and turns, he led Ji Yan to a building that exuded a sense of grandeur.
This is the church of this world, which belongs to the [Radiant Holy See], occupies a corner of the town of Maine, and has its own system.
After motioning for Ji Yan to wait in place, Old Virgin entered the church, and after more than half an hour, he appeared with a happy face and beckoned Ji Yan to enter with him. Beneath the joy he exuded, there was a flesh pain and determination that could not be concealed.
After another round of twists and turns, the two were taken to a side hall, the door opened, and a pock-faced man in a gray robe and a pale green crown came into view. This person has a good temperament, but the pockmarks on his face and the shadow between his eyebrows and eyes cut the overall image in half, giving people a feeling that is not very comfortable.
Ji Yan later learned that the person in front of him was named Weinstein Devon, and he was the crown sacrifice of the church in Maintown (also known as the green crown sacrifice among the people). Under normal circumstances, the highest status of this town-level church is the white-robed bishop, who has three or five crowns under his command to manage various specific affairs, so its power position can be seen.
However, this Weinstein was ostracized for some reason, and was placed in the position of managing the confessional, not to mention no status, and no oil and water. That's why old Virgin was able to ask him to help.
"Hurry up, I have limited time. The questioning Ji Yan was asking with old Virgin, and Weinstein was impatient, "If you don't do it, get out, but the money won't be returned!"
Ji Yan felt that the demeanor and emotions of the two did not seem to be fake, so he didn't ask any more: Take a gamble, if this is all cheated, it can only be said that their acting skills have become extraordinary. If this kind of character can be met casually, it can only be considered unlucky for me.
Ji Yan relaxed his spirit under Weinstein's guidance, and then there was a strange chanting voice in his ears, sacred, vast, brilliant, and majestic...... There was a lot of positive emotions that enveloped him entirely.
It is warm, as if the whole body is soaked in warm water, and every cell of the body, along with the spirit, gradually relaxes.
A strange force quietly entered Ji Yan's body, circulated throughout his body, and immediately condensed into a series of mysterious runes, converging towards his head.
This string of runes contains the spiritual energy of the Glorious Holy See to "persuade" others to believe in the Church, although the nature is mild and not overbearing, just a seed is not harmful to ordinary people, but it makes the future fate of the grantee in the hands of the Holy See, once the Holy See really exerts its strength, the grantee will immediately become a puppet without independent thoughts!
The dimensional wheel senses the crisis of the host, and instinctively operates!
The vast but formless power suddenly erupted, sweeping away the seductive spiritual energy of the rune string!
Weinstein, who was close at the foot and engrossed in chanting "hymns to the soul" and performing "spiritual enlightenment", was unaware.
In a moment, the singing stopped, and the ritual ended.
"Alright, come in. Weinstein wiped the sweat from his forehead and called out to old Virgin, who was guarding the door. A soul hymn lasts for half an hour, and there is usually a special chanting team, and if it weren't for the money, he would definitely not want to suffer this sin. "Take him away, and don't go to the wrong door. ”
"Master Divan, I understand, don't worry. Old Vicion complimented him a few words, and then he was going to pull Ji Yan to wake him up.
Just before his hand was about to touch Ji Yan's body, the latter opened his eyes suddenly. !!
Old Virgin was momentarily stunned, and his movements froze in mid-air.
"What happened just now?" the strange was fleeting, and old Virgin came back to his senses, "and his eyes seemed to shoot a light...... It's my delusion, it should be like this......"
Returning the same way, the two of them had their own thoughts, and they were silent all the way.
"Fishing, flavoring, few, and en......" came out of the church, and Ji Yan suddenly spit out a few words with a strange tone.
Old Virgin was startled, and then reacted: So you can speak!" ”
This discovery made the old Virgin even more happy, and began to correct Ji Yan's pronunciation.
"Old Virgin, I, Fore Sell. After a while, Ji Yan made the first self-introduction in another world with difficulty.
"Mr. Selder......"
"Fuer!" Ji Yan grinned, stretched out his hand, and handed it to Old Virgin.
The latter quickly understood the meaning of this action, and an old face smiled into a chrysanthemum, and held Ji Yan's hand tightly, "Fuer!"
Subsequently, the two of them exchanged pleasantly.
Communicate in ways that seem strange to outsiders.
Ji Yan speaks Chinese with a full and round character, and Old Vician speaks the local language, which at first glance looks completely chicken and duck, but in fact it is not.
The "Hymn to the Soul" is for preaching and has magical powers. It can be simply understood as a very slight degree of brainwashing, which can convey the ideas that the person who performs the "Enlightenment" wants to convey (the supremacy of the Radiant Holy See) to the audience, so that the audience has an instinctive favor for the Radiant Holy See.
Because the degree is extremely shallow, it will not have a bad visible impact on the audience, but if the number of times increases, the degree will also be piled up, and the audience will naturally become a member of the huge number of followers of the Glorious Holy See.
From the point of view of collecting money, Weinstein was a real man, and he spent a lot of effort to perform the "Enlightenment Technique", and made simple modifications according to the request of the elder Virgin.
If everything is normal, after receiving the "Spiritual Enlightenment Technique", Ji Yan can sense the strong emotions and will of Old Vicion and gradually achieve the purpose of normal communication.
However, no one expected that after the interference of the power of the dimensional wheel, Ji Yan would get far more than this!
