Chapter 67 chapter Five
"How long is he going to talk?"
This is Nelia's complaint.Shan Sen had a displeased expression, and was bending over to look down.
Su Kailun did it deliberately to let us see this scene.Su Kailun is gathering all the guards and giving a speech. From the balcony of our room, we can clearly see where they are standing now.Coupled with Su Kailun's sonorous and powerful shouts, we standing on the balcony, like the soldiers lined up in front of him, had to lower our heads and look timid.The soldiers were called up in the middle of the night to gather at a military training ground in a strange city abroad. They all felt it was ridiculous, but under Su Kailun's intimidating speech, they did not dare to complain and stood motionless. There.
"Understood? This is not Byzos! Wake up to me! Get up immediately, open your eyes wide, and be ready for battle at any time! Do you know what the attitude of a soldier should be? You should have The trembling spirit was washed away by the breath of the sea, completely relax your vigilance, what can you do!"
I put Su Kailun's yelling at them behind me, turned and entered the room.
"Ouch. He's such a pain in the ass."
"Don't blame him. It's actually your fault, brother Fisher."
Shan Sen tilted his head and asked, "Is it my fault?"
"Yes. Anyway, this is someone else's country. Of course, the guard captain's nerves will be stretched like silk threads on a loom. However, Wen Chai, who he was responsible for escorting, was unexpectedly not on the carriage. Of course it will be very uncomfortable and unhappy. This is your fault!"
"Yes, I understand. But this is not Baizos, it's in a city in someone else's country. It's really..."
Carl took a breath and said.
"Yeah. Hope it ends soon. What an embarrassment to the country."
Yi Luli looked more and more confused.She fidgeted and fell into thought.Not long after, she asked carefully: "Well, I'm a little embarrassed to ask this, but according to what you said, did Su Kailun do anything wrong?"
"what?"
"Wen Chai is a prisoner of the Byzos Kingdom, and as a military officer, Mr. Su Kailun has the responsibility to escort the prisoners of war. Therefore, I can understand Shan Sen's mistake in this matter, but I don't understand Su Kailun's mistake in this matter. what."
"Ah... It's not very important whether Mr. Su Kailun has done anything wrong. We are talking about the fact that he is now in another country and publicly scolding his subordinates. This is a bit embarrassing for people who are compatriots thing."
"His people did something wrong, didn't they? Because they neglected their duties."
"Yes, that's right. But he can scold in a low voice. He doesn't have to let people from other countries see such an embarrassing scene. Anyway, there are no parents in the world who are willing to let their family ugliness spread. So whisper Say it..."
"Isn't this a superficial effort?"
"what?"
"Isn't this a way to let bad things be solved only within oneself, while good things are publicized to the outside world?"
"From some perspectives, you're right."
"But whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, both are true, aren't they? Why do you have to do superficial work?"
"Because he will only embarrass his subordinates even more. Does he have to hurt them like this? No matter who it is, he will feel uncomfortable if he is scolded. And if it is in a place where foreigners can see If you are scolded like this..."
Carl explained this and made a smile.
"Hehehe. Seriously, I actually want to explain something that doesn't need to be explained. For the young children of Ubinje, to present the good side to foreigners or other people, or... I'm afraid you won't got it."
"I really don't understand."
Iluli nodded, and Carl had no choice but to scratch his scalp, nodded while looking at Nelia, and said, "Maybe you won't be able to understand what I say. Because it can't be explained in words at all."
Iluli stared at Carl for a while, and said quietly: "I will observe in detail and think about it."
"Thank you for your understanding."
Karl opened the book again, and Iluli also opened the book quietly.How on earth did these two men manage to end a heated debate in a gentle manner, and then immediately opened the book to read?Stranger than Iluli is Carl, he is not human at all.I sat on the chair with my legs stretched out with dull eyes, while Shan Sen was deep in thought.
Carl suddenly closed the book and said, "Brother Fisher, do you still remember what I told you?"
Shan Sen, who was contemplating just now, was taken aback by Carl's sudden question, and he replied: "What? Ah, yes. I remember it very clearly."
"Well. That's fine."
"Then, I wish you all the best of luck!" Carl waved his hand and set off.Su Kailun's guard captain still looked a little hesitant, and said disappointedly: "Is there really no need for guards to escort you?" Shan Sen nodded and said: "Yes. It doesn't matter. We are not important people, but we can be called a certain type of traveler. The real envoy is Karl, isn't it? Please take good care of Karl .” "But my duty also includes ensuring everyone's safety." "You don't have to worry." Su Kailun shook her head and stepped back.Finally we went to the carriage that escorted Wenchai. "Hey, Wen Chai!" Wen Chai poked his head out, always looking taciturn and indifferent. Shan Sen said with a smile: "When you get to Balatan, you have to be careful and pay attention to your own body." "Don't worry about it." I also smiled and greeted Wenchai, and Yiluli asked me to greet Wenchai on her behalf.Nelia exhaled heavily through her nose, and said to Wen Chai, "I wish you the best of luck with your eye diseases on the way to travel." This kind of cursing blessing.Wen Chai smiled coldly, and asked me to help him pass the message, answering Iluli and Nelia, and then sat down on the floor of the carriage again. By the lake of Sikian, we saw off Karl and Wenchai who were about to leave, as well as the original guards and the guards who joined in Nawulechen City.The sun rises from the sea in the east, ready to illuminate the traveler for a whole day without end, while the mysterious lake in the west glows blue.Karl and his party set off by Lake Sitian, they had gone a long way and disappeared.Their leaving figures flickered in and out of the woods, and finally disappeared among the shadows of the pine trees. Shan Sen waved his arm slightly, and said softly: "Come on, let's go. Go to the temple!" Nelia smiled, patted the Nighthawk's buttocks, and jumped onto the horse lightly.Facing the giant horse, Nelia can leap up so effortlessly?It's not easy.After everyone else got on their horses, Nelia asked, "How long will it take?" Yi Luli replied: "If you ride all day today, you can probably arrive at dinner at the latest." "Okay. Let's run along the seaside! Huh!" Nelia immediately began to ride down the side of the hill.Shan Sen shook his head and followed Nelia, and Iluli and I followed in order.Nelia rode the Black Nighthawk and rushed into the White Sand Bay where the sea waves kept coming and going.Under the galloping horseshoes of the nighthawk, the white sand on the beach scattered and the water splashed everywhere.Nelia screamed and laughed, "Yeah hahaha!"
"Ha chirp!" "Wet body, blowing the cold wind while riding a horse, it's strange not to catch a cold." Nelia wanted to say something back, but she sneezed right away.While muttering, Shan Sen took out the cloak in his backpack and gave it to Nelia.Nelia kept sneezing, thanked Shan Sen for her kindness with her eyes, and took the cloak. "Ah uh uh... well, it's so cold, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, chirp." "Anyway, it's already on the way to the temple, so just be patient." "Hmm! If you walk into the temple once, three, Hajiu, you will have bad luck for three months." "Then you sit outside the temple and wait." Nelia didn't answer, just glared at me, and started sneezing again and again.Ha chirp!Ha, ha chirp! It was close to dusk and dusk, and we searched all the way according to the information we investigated before entering the Principality of Yisi, and finally saw the Temple of Deferi.It is a beautiful temple located on the way from Nawulechen to Daihapa Port. The Temple of Defeli was built a little higher on the ridge, and the sunset and twilight dyed the front of the temple with a red light.The plain we walked just now has gradually darkened, and the Deferi Temple at the top is still full of red light, looking like a building of light floating in mid-air. Nelia looked up at the building with awe. "Looks like a building where only good things happen... Hajoo!" Shan Sen shook his head and walked along the path leading to the temple. When the sunset slanted on the temple on the mountainside, it was probably time to end the afternoon reading of classics and start dinner.The smell of toast wafts through.Although it became lighter as it drifted toward the top of the temple, fragrant white smoke continued to emit from the tall and strong chimney.This temple is not as spectacular as the Temple of the Great Storm. It looks inconspicuous from the outside, and it will give people the illusion that it is just a building like an elder mansion in a mountain village.Iluli smiled happily, and said, "This temple is known to be the Temple of Deferi at first sight." "what?" "Because there are two doors." With her good eyesight, Iluli seemed to have seen the main entrance of the temple.She said the temple has two doors?Ah, really.In this case, one of the two doors is fake? Ellie was right.The slope of the path gradually slowed down, and it was only when we approached the temple that we were sure to see the two doors on the front wall.Because this is the temple of the God of Forked Road, Deferi, so there are two gates, right?Both doors were closed with solid wooden panels. "I always feel that there is a door that cannot be opened." "Really...what the person holding the scepter of God does sometimes seems like a joke. Isn't it?" While chatting with Shan Sen, I looked at the two doors.Let's take a guess. "Ha, ha, ha, chirp! It's right, right." We all looked back at Nelia.Nelia covered her nose and said, "You can see it from the handle attached to the door, haha chirp!" Shan Sen shrugged and jumped off the horse.Then go to push the door on the right, and there is a creaking sound. "Scare me?" At that moment, Eluli laughed.She jumped off her horse and walked to the door on the left. While we were looking at her, Iluli ran to push the door.crunch.is it open? "Just because one side is right doesn't mean the other side is wrong." Shansen and I looked depressed.Nelia said in surprise: "It's strange. The door on the right is used more often, use it, Hajiu!" "Because there are more right-handed people." Iluli replied simply, took the rein and walked to the door.Shan Sen looked at the left door in amazement, then at the right door, and then said to himself: "It's really interesting. I don't think they made two doors on purpose, what is the meaning of doing so?" "What's the meaning?" Shan Sen thought about it seriously, and then said in a clear tone: "When one door fails, it is more convenient to use another door." As soon as I walked inside, I saw a spacious courtyard, and the cultivators ran out of the building.They were amused to see us standing there with two doors open.Then a priest came out behind them. The priest with a thick upper arm touched his beard and said, "Welcome the guests who come in through the gate of the temple. Bless you with the little luck you need if necessary." Shan Sen paused and looked at Yi Luli.Yi Luli immediately stood in front of her and replied: "The road you follow your heart is the right road. We are travelers passing by. After the sun goes down, the wind is cold and the dew is cold. We are wondering if we can stay in the temple for one night." The priest who looked like the leader of the cottage nodded lightly and told the practitioners: "Bring these guests into the temple, eat and freshen up." At this moment, Shan Sen ran to the front in a panic. "Ah, that, wait a minute. Uh..." Then Shan Sen tapped his head, and suddenly rummaged around on Meteor's saddle.A ball of lint, scraps of paper, bitten leftover bread and a small piece of ham, cups and other tableware that were laundered because they were too lazy to wash, a few broken bows and arrows, dirty little bags stained with oil Wait, all spread out in front of the priest, the cultivator began to snicker.I felt so humiliated that I looked up at the sky, and Nelia, who was sneezing and giggling, ended up hiccupping and getting worse. Finally, Shan Sen desperately found the letter of introduction that Samantha gave us in the territory of Caral. Shan Sen saw the bread flour and oil stains on the letter of introduction, blushed with embarrassment, and walked to the front in fear. As soon as Shan Sen presented the letter of introduction, the priest first showed a very disappointed expression.Shan Sen was stunned and didn't know what to do, the priest didn't say anything, took the letter of introduction and began to read it. The priest, who had been reading the letter for a while, had a different brilliance appear on his face. "It turned out to be a letter of introduction from our sisters and church members." "Yes, yes. Ah, that, I'm sorry. Traveling really makes people less and less respectful, and it stains the letter of introduction..." "Ah, it doesn't matter. As long as the letter can convey your heart, it is enough. You are friends in our teaching circle, and we must treat you well. Please enter the hall for a short rest. Let's talk slowly if there is something to do." "Good. Thank you." Led by the practitioners, we entered the building. After a brief freshen up, they allocated two rooms for us.Shansen and I shared a room, and then Iluli and Nelia went to another room.We unloaded our backpacks, armor, and weapons. After waiting for a while, the practitioners came to us. "Follow me! The most important event of the day begins now!" Looking at Shan Sen's face, I thought my face might be the same as his.The two of us looked at the cultivator blankly, and stood up without saying anything.The cultivators smiled and led us out.As soon as I came out, I looked into the room where the girl lived, but I didn't see Nelia, only Iluli came out. "Where's Nelia?" "She said she had no appetite ... lying in bed." "Ah, is that so? Hmm. If you feel uncomfortable, you need to eat more." The cultivator who brought us out heard our conversation and said, "Ah, that lady just now looks very bad. Is it a cold?" "Yes, it seems right." "Well. Then after the meal, I will give you medicine. If you take the medicine we gave, you will probably be as healthy as a spring pony tomorrow morning. Hahaha." Shan Sen reluctantly expressed his thanks.Spring pony?The vocabulary used by the people in this temple is so low-level.The spring pony in our Byzos refers to women who like to have sex with red apricots, is it the same here? The feeling in the restaurant is similar to the atmosphere of the temple on the mountain.On the four walls, you can see pillars made of pine wood. Although the walls are thick, they are not gorgeous.Think of it as a giant hut.But very comfortable. But the priests looked uncomfortable.They were all in the middle of a noisy meal.The cultivator who brought us in, sure enough, laughed and shouted loudly as soon as he arrived at the restaurant: "Hey! Get out of the way! Haha. The guests are here." "Oh! Please take your seats!" For a while, there were cheers everywhere, which made us have to salute everywhere.Not long after, we were taken as friends of the temple to a table with the high priest, where we met the high priest for the first time. "I've read the letter of introduction from Priestess Samantha. I'm Lingster." Fortunately, Shan Sen is still smart enough not to say something like "Hello, Mr. Ringster."The so-called experience, and the experience accumulated over time, are really terrible things. "Yes, high-ranking priest. We are very grateful to the noble temple for sending charcoal and extending a hand of friendship to the wanderers in the wilderness." The high priest smiled, brought us food, and greeted each other briefly.Of course, even a simple hello can only be heard by shouting loudly.Is this really a temple?I was dumbfounded when I saw those cultivators who were laughing and playing the knife and fork contest bravely with forks and knives.Next to it was a young priest, laughing and cheering them on.Oh, there is a set. On the other side a little far away, a practitioner jumped onto the table and was chased by other practitioners. Seeing this scene, the stern-faced priest raised his hand rigorously and tripped the practitioner.The cultivator fell on the table and rolled, and then fell to the ground and turned several somersaults. The practitioners around him began to hold their stomachs and burst out laughing.I asked Shan Sen: "When shall we escape?" "I want to get out of here as soon as I finish eating..." Shan Sen made a stride, and immediately began to stuff the bread into his mouth, as if he wanted to swallow the food in front of his eyes.The high priest was very happy to see us eating with gusto.Then he yelled to the surroundings: "Hey! Be quiet! I'm talking! Do you hear me!" After the high priest shouted, he said to us: "Okay, do you have anything to do when you come to our country?" Shan Sen swallowed the bread quickly, his heart beating a little nervously.He said, "Ah, yes. We came to your country with an envoy from the Byzos Kingdom, but we have a personal mission. We need to find someone in your country." The high priest was a little surprised when he heard that we came with the envoys. He asked us again: "You said you came to find someone? Huh." "Yes. Because of this, I hope that the Deferi Temple can help us." "Is there anything we can do to help? Please tell me." "I hope that one of the clergymen of Defeli can walk with us." This is the plan Karl told Shan Sen. Because we are not dragons, nor are we dragon soul envoys, of course it is impossible for us to know whether the red-haired girl is really the daughter of the Hastel family.But if there is a clergyman from Defeli who walks with us, we can use the power of God to confirm whether the red-haired girl is the daughter of the Harshtel family.So we'll ask questions of the accompanying Deferi clergy.That is after seeing that girl.Just give us an alternative answer like "This child is a dragon soul messenger or not."Carl is really smart. The high priest tilted his head and said, "Are you saying that you need an adventurous companion?" "No, that's not the case. We plan to set off for Daiharpa Port tomorrow, where we need Deferi's scepter to help us confirm, so we made such a request. Once the confirmation is completed, complete what we have to do Afterwards, we will escort the clergymen who accompanied us back to the Temple of Deferi again. So it can be completed in the day after tomorrow at the latest." "Ah... Is that so? I'll help you find out as soon as possible." "Then, thank you so much."
"Drink this medicine. It is made by the priest himself. I heard that after drinking this medicine, you can jump like a spring pony." Nelia looked at me with strange eyes, and then at the bowl of soup. "Ah... (sniffing sound). Ha chirp! My teeth are chattering from the cold." Nelia, wrapped in a blanket, sat up shivering.She first looked at the medicine in the bowl, and immediately wrinkled her nose. "Why is this color so weird? The taste is not right..." "Otherwise, does the medicine look delicious? Drink it quickly." Nelia pinched her nose with one hand and drank the bowl of medicine in one go.Then the whole cheek puffed up.I said anxiously: "Swallow it!" grunt.Nelia swallowed the medicine with great difficulty and let go of her nose.She immediately stuck out her tongue and yelled: "Ugh, ah, ah, it's so bitter." Then Shan Sen said with a smile: "Oh? This means that the medicine is very effective." Yi Luli smiled slightly, rummaged around in her backpack, took out an incredible item, and gave it to Nelia.Nelia cheered, "It's sugar!" "Don't eat too much. Be careful to eat bad stomach." Nelia nodded, put her hand in the sugar bag, then took it out and started licking her fingers.Shan Sen giggled, sat on the chair, and said, "Looking at her like this, it's no problem to leave immediately tomorrow." Nelia, who was busy licking her fingers, made an unbearably sweet expression, grabbed the bag, looked back at Iluli, and asked, "So, what's the matter? Hajio! They are willing to send a saint Will the staff help us? (sniff——)" "Well. We met the High Priest. He said he would ask us about it." "Then did he say when to reply to us?" "He didn't say anything." At this time, a knock on the door was heard.Nelia said, "Come in... Hajoo!" As soon as the door opened, the high priest and a young priest walked in.This young priest was about twenty-four or five years old, with black hair, and he was a very cheerful-looking young man.The watery eyes seem to be mischievous, and there is a smile on the corner of the mouth, but other than these, he looks like an ordinary young man.It would be more suitable for him if he wore the clothes of a cultivator instead of a priest. As soon as the high-ranking priest came in, he first paid attention to Nelia, and then said, "Ah, this one is a companion who is slightly ill. How do you feel now?" Nelia quickly hid her sugar and saliva-stained hands underneath, nodded lightly and said, "It's better—a lot. Thank you." "Is it much better? That's great." After the high priest finished speaking, he immediately pointed to the young priest standing beside him. "This young man has worked hard to learn how to become the scepter of De Feli. I think it will be helpful if you take him there. Even if you didn't ask, he is clamoring to go down the mountain every day to see other places. It's too much. Coincidentally, I may trouble you, would you like to take him there?" Uh.Weird opening introduction.But why did the young priest look so familiar?Ah, so it is.He was the priest who was cheering up next to the knife and fork fight among the cultivators at dinner just now. Shan Sen looked at the high-ranking priest with an embarrassed expression, not knowing how to answer.But his troubles soon disappeared.The young priest first said with a disappointed expression: "Really! You are two men and two women. Am I the one who is alone?" ah ah!This scene seems to be staged everywhere.The high-ranking priest swung his fist, and briskly knocked the young priest on the back of the head.The young priest held his head and ran around the room. The high-ranking priest explained to the startled us with his usual serious expression: "His virtue is what you see now. If you think he can do like this... ..." Shan Sen said very worriedly: "Ah, that, sorry, does this priest really have the power of De Feli?" Then the young priest giggled and said, "Of course. Hmm. Shall I take a guess? You, yes, must be a man. And you are unmarried, have a girlfriend, and are right-handed." .” When Shan Sen heard him say "it's a man", his heart almost stopped, and when he got to the end, his expression gradually became surprised. "How did you know?" "Is it true that a man can tell by looking at it. If you don't wear a wedding ring, it means you are unmarried, but if you hang a ring around your neck, it means you have a girlfriend. If you hang a sword ring on your left belt, you know you are right-handed." people." Shan Sen looked at the high-ranking priest with an even more surprised expression, and the high-ranking priest sighed greatly.At this time, Nelia quickly picked up the words. "Hey, let's guess this. Hajiu! Did you see that trident leaning against the wall? Is that trident this young man's or that young man's?" Without even thinking about it, the young priest quickly replied, "I don't know?" "Correct. Because it's mine." Nelia giggled and took out a copper plate from her pocket.She tossed the money up, caught it, and covered it with her hand. "Is it the front, Hajiu! Or the back?" Still smiling, the young priest quickly replied, "I don't know?" What?Then Nelia giggled and let go of her hand.There is no copper plate in hand.What a quick way.Where did the copper plate hide?The young priest nodded and walked towards Nelia.While Nelia watched him carefully, the young priest folded his hands in prayer.Is that young friend smiling even when he prays?Suddenly, his hands glowed.While Shan Sen and I were looking at this scene in amazement, the young priest reached out to Nelia. "Please don't be afraid." He pressed Nelia's forehead.After a while, the light on his hand disappeared forever.Nelia blinked, her face full of joy. "No more sneezing! No more runny nose!" Shan Sen and I looked at the young priest in admiration.Iluli said quietly: "He has the power of Deferi." The high priest nodded solemnly.He said, "That's right. It's Deferi's misfortune." Should we nod in agreement?
"Then, I wish you all the best of luck!" Carl waved his hand and set off.Su Kailun's guard captain still looked a little hesitant, and said disappointedly: "Is there really no need for guards to escort you?" Shan Sen nodded and said: "Yes. It doesn't matter. We are not important people, but we can be called a certain type of traveler. The real envoy is Karl, isn't it? Please take good care of Karl .” "But my duty also includes ensuring everyone's safety." "You don't have to worry." Su Kailun shook her head and stepped back.Finally we went to the carriage that escorted Wenchai. "Hey, Wen Chai!" Wen Chai poked his head out, always looking taciturn and indifferent. Shan Sen said with a smile: "When you get to Balatan, you have to be careful and pay attention to your own body." "Don't worry about it." I also smiled and greeted Wenchai, and Yiluli asked me to greet Wenchai on her behalf.Nelia exhaled heavily through her nose, and said to Wen Chai, "I wish you the best of luck with your eye diseases on the way to travel." This kind of cursing blessing.Wen Chai smiled coldly, and asked me to help him pass the message, answering Iluli and Nelia, and then sat down on the floor of the carriage again. By the lake of Sikian, we saw off Karl and Wenchai who were about to leave, as well as the original guards and the guards who joined in Nawulechen City.The sun rises from the sea in the east, ready to illuminate the traveler for a whole day without end, while the mysterious lake in the west glows blue.Karl and his party set off by Lake Sitian, they had gone a long way and disappeared.Their leaving figures flickered in and out of the woods, and finally disappeared among the shadows of the pine trees. Shan Sen waved his arm slightly, and said softly: "Come on, let's go. Go to the temple!" Nelia smiled, patted the Nighthawk's buttocks, and jumped onto the horse lightly.Facing the giant horse, Nelia can leap up so effortlessly?It's not easy.After everyone else got on their horses, Nelia asked, "How long will it take?" Yi Luli replied: "If you ride all day today, you can probably arrive at dinner at the latest." "Okay. Let's run along the seaside! Huh!" Nelia immediately began to ride down the side of the hill.Shan Sen shook his head and followed Nelia, and Iluli and I followed in order.Nelia rode the Black Nighthawk and rushed into the White Sand Bay where the sea waves kept coming and going.Under the galloping horseshoes of the nighthawk, the white sand on the beach scattered and the water splashed everywhere.Nelia screamed and laughed, "Yeah hahaha!"
"Ha chirp!" "Wet body, blowing the cold wind while riding a horse, it's strange not to catch a cold." Nelia wanted to say something back, but she sneezed right away.While muttering, Shan Sen took out the cloak in his backpack and gave it to Nelia.Nelia kept sneezing, thanked Shan Sen for her kindness with her eyes, and took the cloak. "Ah uh uh... well, it's so cold, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, chirp." "Anyway, it's already on the way to the temple, so just be patient." "Hmm! If you walk into the temple once, three, Hajiu, you will have bad luck for three months." "Then you sit outside the temple and wait." Nelia didn't answer, just glared at me, and started sneezing again and again.Ha chirp!Ha, ha chirp! It was close to dusk and dusk, and we searched all the way according to the information we investigated before entering the Principality of Yisi, and finally saw the Temple of Deferi.It is a beautiful temple located on the way from Nawulechen to Daihapa Port.

Shan Sen shrugged and jumped off the horse.Then go to push the door on the right, and there is a creaking sound. "Scare me?" At that moment, Eluli laughed.She jumped off her horse and walked to the door on the left. While we were looking at her, Iluli ran to push the door.crunch.is it open? "Just because one side is right doesn't mean the other side is wrong." Shansen and I looked depressed.Nelia said in surprise: "It's strange. The door on the right is used more often, use it, Hajiu!" "Because there are more right-handed people." Iluli replied simply, took the rein and walked to the door.Shan Sen looked at the left door in amazement, then at the right door, and then said to himself: "It's really interesting.

Shan Sen paused and looked at Yi Luli.Yi Luli immediately stood in front of her and replied: "The road you follow your heart is the right road. We are travelers passing by. After the sun goes down, the wind is cold and the dew is cold. We are wondering if we can stay in the temple for one night." The priest who looked like the leader of the cottage nodded lightly and told the practitioners: "Bring these guests into the temple, eat and freshen up." At this moment, Shan Sen ran to the front in a panic. "Ah, that, wait a minute. Uh..." Then Shan Sen tapped his head, and suddenly rummaged around on Meteor's saddle.A ball of lint, scraps of paper, bitten leftover bread and a small piece of ham, cups and other tableware that were laundered because they were too lazy to wash, a few broken bows and arrows, dirty little bags stained with oil Wait, all spread out in front of the priest, the cultivator began to snicker.I felt so humiliated that I looked up at the sky, and Nelia, who was sneezing and giggling, ended up hiccupping and getting worse. Finally, Shan Sen desperately found the letter of introduction that Samantha gave us in the territory of Caral. Shan Sen saw the bread flour and oil stains on the letter of introduction, blushed with embarrassment, and walked to the front in fear. As soon as Shan Sen presented the letter of introduction, the priest first showed a very disappointed expression.Shan Sen was stunned and didn't know what to do, the priest didn't say anything, took the letter of introduction and began to read it. The priest, who had been reading the letter for a while, had a different brilliance appear on his face. "It turned out to be a letter of introduction from our sisters and church members." "Yes, yes. Ah, that, I'm sorry. Traveling really makes people less and less respectful, and it stains the letter of introduction..." "Ah, it doesn't matter. As long as the letter can convey your heart, it is enough. You are friends in our teaching circle, and we must treat you well. Please enter the hall for a short rest. Let's talk slowly if there is something to do." "Good. Thank you." Led by the practitioners, we entered the building. After a brief freshen up, they allocated two rooms for us.Shansen and I shared a room, and then Iluli and Nelia went to another room.We unloaded our backpacks, armor, and weapons. After waiting for a while, the practitioners came to us. "Follow me! The most important event of the day begins now!" Looking at Shan Sen's face, I thought my face might be the same as his.The two of us looked at the cultivator blankly, and stood up without saying anything.The cultivators smiled and led us out.As soon as I came out, I looked into the room where the girl lived, but I didn't see Nelia, only Iluli came out. "Where's Nelia?" "She said she had no appetite ... lying in bed." "Ah, is that so? Hmm. If you feel uncomfortable, you need to eat more." The cultivator who brought us out heard our conversation and said, "Ah, that lady just now looks very bad. Is it a cold?" "Yes, it seems right." "Well. Then after the meal, I will give you medicine. If you take the medicine we gave, you will probably be as healthy as a spring pony tomorrow morning. Hahaha." Shan Sen reluctantly expressed his thanks.Spring pony?The vocabulary used by the people in this temple is so low-level.The spring pony in our Byzos refers to women who like to have sex with red apricots, is it the same here? The feeling in the restaurant is similar to the atmosphere of the temple on the mountain.On the four walls, you can see pillars made of pine wood. Although the walls are thick, they are not gorgeous.Think of it as a giant hut.But very comfortable. But the priests looked uncomfortable.They were all in the middle of a noisy meal.The cultivator who brought us in, sure enough, laughed and shouted loudly as soon as he arrived at the restaurant: "Hey! Get out of the way! Haha. The guests are here." "Oh! Please take your seats!" For a while, there were cheers everywhere, which made us have to salute everywhere.Not long after, we were taken as friends of the temple to a table with the high priest, where we met the high priest for the first time. "I've read the letter of introduction from Priestess Samantha. I'm Lingster." Fortunately, Shan Sen is still smart enough not to say something like "Hello, Mr. Ringster."The so-called experience, and the experience accumulated over time, are really terrible things. "Yes, high-ranking priest. We are very grateful to the noble temple for sending charcoal and extending a hand of friendship to the wanderers in the wilderness." The high priest smiled, brought us food, and greeted each other briefly.Of course, even a simple hello can only be heard by shouting loudly.Is this really a temple?I was dumbfounded when I saw those cultivators who were laughing and playing the knife and fork contest bravely with forks and knives.Next to it was a young priest, laughing and cheering them on.Oh, there is a set. On the other side a little far away, a practitioner jumped onto the table and was chased by other practitioners. Seeing this scene, the stern-faced priest raised his hand rigorously and tripped the practitioner.The cultivator fell on the table and rolled, and then fell to the ground and turned several somersaults. The practitioners around him began to hold their stomachs and burst out laughing.I asked Shan Sen: "When shall we escape?" "I want to get out of here as soon as I finish eating..." Shan Sen made a stride, and immediately began to stuff the bread into his mouth, as if he wanted to swallow the food in front of his eyes.The high priest was very happy to see us eating with gusto.Then he yelled to the surroundings: "Hey! Be quiet! I'm talking! Do you hear me!" After the high priest shouted, he said to us: "Okay, do you have anything to do when you come to our country?" Shan Sen swallowed the bread quickly, his heart beating a little nervously.He said, "Ah, yes. We came to your country with an envoy from the Byzos Kingdom, but we have a personal mission. We need to find someone in your country." The high priest was a little surprised when he heard that we came with the envoys. He asked us again: "You said you came to find someone? Huh." "Yes. Because of this, I hope that the Deferi Temple can help us." "Is there anything we can do to help? Please tell me." "I hope that one of the clergymen of Defeli can walk with us." This is the plan Karl told Shan Sen. Because we are not dragons, nor are we dragon soul envoys, of course it is impossible for us to know whether the red-haired girl is really the daughter of the Hastel family.But if there is a clergyman from Defeli who walks with us, we can use the power of God to confirm whether the red-haired girl is the daughter of the Harshtel family.So we'll ask questions of the accompanying Deferi clergy.That is after seeing that girl.Just give us an alternative answer like "This child is a dragon soul messenger or not."Carl is really smart. The high priest tilted his head and said, "Are you saying that you need an adventurous companion?" "No, that's not the case. We plan to set off for Daiharpa Port tomorrow, where we need Deferi's scepter to help us confirm, so we made such a request. Once the confirmation is completed, complete what we have to do Afterwards, we will escort the clergymen who accompanied us back to the Temple of Deferi again. So it can be completed in the day after tomorrow at the latest." "Ah... Is that so? I'll help you find out as soon as possible." "Then, thank you so much."
"Drink this medicine. It is made by the priest himself. I heard that after drinking this medicine, you can jump like a spring pony." Nelia looked at me with strange eyes, and then at the bowl of soup. "Ah... (sniffing sound). Ha chirp! My teeth are chattering from the cold." Nelia, wrapped in a blanket, sat up shivering.She first looked at the medicine in the bowl, and immediately wrinkled her nose. "Why is this color so weird? The taste is not right..." "Otherwise, does the medicine look delicious? Drink it quickly." Nelia pinched her nose with one hand and drank the bowl of medicine in one go.Then the whole cheek puffed up.I said anxiously: "Swallow it!" grunt.Nelia swallowed the medicine with great difficulty and let go of her nose.She immediately stuck out her tongue and yelled: "Ugh, ah, ah, it's so bitter." Then Shan Sen said with a smile: "Oh? This means that the medicine is very effective." Yi Luli smiled slightly, rummaged around in her backpack, took out an incredible item, and gave it to Nelia.Nelia cheered, "It's sugar!" "Don't eat too much. Be careful to eat bad stomach." Nelia nodded, put her hand in the sugar bag, then took it out and started licking her fingers.Shan Sen giggled, sat on the chair, and said, "Looking at her like this, it's no problem to leave immediately tomorrow." Nelia, who was busy licking her fingers, made an unbearably sweet expression, grabbed the bag, looked back at Iluli, and asked, "So, what's the matter? Hajio! They are willing to send a saint Will the staff help us? (sniff——)" "Well. We met the High Priest. He said he would ask us about it." "Then did he say when to reply to us?" "He didn't say anything." At this time, a knock on the door was heard.Nelia said, "Come in... Hajoo!" As soon as the door opened, the high priest and a young priest walked in.This young priest was about twenty-four or five years old, with black hair, and he was a very cheerful-looking young man.The watery eyes seem to be mischievous, and there is a smile on the corner of the mouth, but other than these, he looks like an ordinary young man.It would be more suitable for him if he wore the clothes of a cultivator instead of a priest. As soon as the high-ranking priest came in, he first paid attention to Nelia, and then said, "Ah, this one is a companion who is slightly ill. How do you feel now?" Nelia quickly hid her sugar and saliva-stained hands underneath, nodded lightly and said, "It's better—a lot. Thank you." "Is it much better? That's great." After the high priest finished speaking, he immediately pointed to the young priest standing beside him. "This young man has worked hard to learn how to become the scepter of De Feli. I think it will be helpful if you take him there. Even if you didn't ask, he is clamoring to go down the mountain every day to see other places. It's too much. Coincidentally, I may trouble you, would you like to take him there?" Uh.Weird opening introduction.But why did the young priest look so familiar?Ah, so it is.He was the priest who was cheering up next to the knife and fork fight among the cultivators at dinner just now. Shan Sen looked at the high-ranking priest with an embarrassed expression, not knowing how to answer.But his troubles soon disappeared.The young priest first said with a disappointed expression: "Really! You are two men and two women. Am I the one who is alone?" ah ah!This scene seems to be staged everywhere.The high-ranking priest swung his fist, and briskly knocked the young priest on the back of the head.The young priest held his head and ran around the room. The high-ranking priest explained to the startled us with his usual serious expression: "His virtue is what you see now. If you think he can do like this... ..." Shan Sen said very worriedly: "Ah, that, sorry, does this priest really have the power of De Feli?" Then the young priest giggled and said, "Of course. Hmm. Shall I take a guess? You, yes, must be a man. And you are unmarried, have a girlfriend, and are right-handed." .” When Shan Sen heard him say "it's a man", his heart almost stopped, and when he got to the end, his expression gradually became surprised. "How did you know?" "Is it true that a man can tell by looking at it. If you don't wear a wedding ring, it means you are unmarried, but if you hang a ring around your neck, it means you have a girlfriend. If you hang a sword ring on your left belt, you know you are right-handed." people." Shan Sen looked at the high-ranking priest with an even more surprised expression, and the high-ranking priest sighed greatly.At this time, Nelia quickly picked up the words. "Hey, let's guess this. Hajiu! Did you see that trident leaning against the wall? Is that trident this young man's or that young man's?" Without even thinking about it, the young priest quickly replied, "I don't know?" "Correct. Because it's mine." Nelia giggled and took out a copper plate from her pocket.She tossed the money up, caught it, and covered it with her hand. "Is it the front, Hajiu! Or the back?" Still smiling, the young priest quickly replied, "I don't know?" What?Then Nelia giggled and let go of her hand.There is no copper plate in hand.What a quick way.Where did the copper plate hide?The young priest nodded and walked towards Nelia.While Nelia watched him carefully, the young priest folded his hands in prayer.Is that young friend smiling even when he prays?Suddenly, his hands glowed.While Shan Sen and I were looking at this scene in amazement, the young priest reached out to Nelia. "Please don't be afraid." He pressed Nelia's forehead.After a while, the light on his hand disappeared forever.Nelia blinked, her face full of joy. "No more sneezing! No more runny nose!" Shan Sen and I looked at the young priest in admiration.Iluli said quietly: "He has the power of Deferi." The high priest nodded solemnly.He said, "That's right. It's Deferi's misfortune." Should we nod in agreement?
