As the bottle of medicine rolled into his body, Lucia seemed to see his tragic end. Suddenly, Lucia's whole body seemed to be sucked away in an instant, and the whole person fell limply to the ground. Originally wanted to call for help, but that sexy little mouth could no longer make any sound. Just like a puppet lying in this cold and dirty alley. Paladin put away the bottle very calmly, took out a folded sack from his pocket, put Lucia into the sack, and sprinkled some gravel grass roots inside, making it not look like a humanoid. He just tied the hole, carried it on his body, and walked out of the alley calmly and came to the main road.
"Hey, Father. What are you carrying?" an old man eating bread asked casually with a smile on the side of the road. The people around immediately turned their attention to the sack on Paladin's shoulder, looking very heavy. Paladin immediately put on a gentle look and said, "It's all soybeans. Even the most devout believers have to eat."
"Hahaha, I can't see that the priest is so strong. With a sack of soybeans, even my son will be so tired that he can't breathe." Another uncle with a bottle of wine immediately laughed. His son is a coolie, that's why he said that. When the people around listened, there was also a burst of good-natured laughter. Palatine also smiled, but there was a calm light in his eyes: "These are all civilians who keep their own feet and do nothing. It seems that Adeley's condition is better than I thought. It is very valuable."
The smiling Paladin suddenly asked, "Where is the Adley Cathedral?" "Oh, does the priest want to see the bishop? Just go straight and turn right. It's very conspicuous, and you can't go wrong." After he finished eating the bread in his hand, the stunned old man made a gesture of kindness and kindness, and was very happy to point out this young priest, who was younger than his own son. Paladin thanked him and walked away.
"Hey, today's priests, there are ever-changing ways to curry favor with bishops, but I've never seen a priest give soybeans." When Palatine walked away, the old man sighed. On the other side, sitting on the steps, looked at the uncle who didn't have a drop of wine bottle, and said with a regretful expression: "Poor priest, such a simple person will be harmed by this bastard bishop. Poor..."
Paladin naturally couldn't hear this, and even if he heard it, he was dismissive. Sure enough, as the old man said, Adley Cathedral would never admit his mistake. The roof pointing to the sky is decorated with gorgeous patterns, and there are stone towers made of marble on both sides. The main entrance is seven meters high, and down is a fifty-step staircase. There is a square in front. This is a church that can be regarded as a landmark building, and Palatine cannot be connected with the rotten house in Nurbali that is so dilapidated that it may collapse at any time. Such a magnificent church stands in the center of the square, and compared with the many terraced houses around it, it is as tall as a group.
Looking at such grandeur, Palatine's eyes flashed with longing. "This kind of church is a church! This is the place worthy of my Paladin! How did I live in Nuerba's dilapidated house for more than a month?" With uncontrollable excitement, Paladin stepped on the stairs, Step by step to the door of the church. Stepped in with a snap.
Magnificent! luxurious! This was the first word that popped into Paladin's mind. In the church, which is half the size of the square, there are benches padded with red cloth. The pews were also carved with patterns, and thirty-four rows filled most of the church. The floors are fine marble. It is obviously a high-end product, the segmentation is exactly the same, and it is perfectly combined. On both sides of the church are rows of huge glass windows. Various statues of Inos are carved with colored glass on it. The two sides of the windows are also decorated with floor-to-ceiling red curtains of seven or eight meters.
Between the windows and the windows are stone pillars, oh my god, these shrewd bastards, even the stone pillars made of marble are carved with gorgeous patterns! Even beside the stone pillar, there are more than a dozen candles placed on a lampstand. Light up this world. The very jealous Paladin looked up, and it was three huge chandeliers hanging above his head! Dozens of gigantic candles hang from the gilded chandelier. Burning candles complement each other. Against the backdrop of the gilded chandeliers, the whole church presents a golden light with the help of the floor marble! Looks gorgeous and luxurious! And through the chandelier and then up the ceiling. It is even more pitiful that the paintings are full of murals! Brilliant colors with expensive paints!
Stepping on the red carpet in the middle, Paladin looked up. I saw that sitting in the middle was a huge statue of Inos with the ceiling! The most representative image of the old man, the statue of Inos with the Lamp of Hope in the left hand and the Sword of Justice in the right! Next to the meticulously crafted statue is a hanging cross flag, and dazzling candles are placed in front of the statue. Lighting up the surroundings makes the statue look more sacred.
Paladin opened his mouth and stared blankly at all this. These are for him. There has never been one! Luxurious, gorgeous. These things, Paladin suddenly had an idea to kill the bishop now and replace it. All of this, he wants to have it!
"Where are you a priest? What are you doing here?" While Paladin was in a daze, a few cleaning priests stared at the bald head and saw Paladin crack open and asked politely and with a hint of disdain. Paladin immediately returned to his senses, ignoring the attitude of these priests, and said respectfully: "I am the priest under the jurisdiction of the bishop, and the priest in charge of Nuerba. I hope to see the bishop."
"Oh...you wait, the bishop is very busy, come back later." Hearing what Paladin said, the priests immediately showed obvious impatience, and waved their hands. I hope this priest will leave soon. Even Palatine could vaguely hear that a priest hiding in the distance sneered: "A country bumpkin who wants to see the bishop with a sack on his back? Hahaha..."
Palatine smiled, not irritated by the rudeness of the priests. Instead he was happy. The more snobbish these priests were, the more room there was for his Palatine. He was also afraid of meeting those truly devout believers. This way, it saves a lot of things.
Thinking like this, Paladin suddenly took out three gold coins from his pocket and handed them to the priest in a veiled manner: "You have worked hard for God. I just want to see the bishop. Would you please let me know?" Originally disdainful When the priest saw the three gold coins, his eyes instantly became straight! This is gold coin! This country priest is so rich, it seems that he can't be underestimated!
The bald priest immediately glanced left and right, and firmly grasped the gold coin in Paladin's hand. Fear of being robbed. After confirming that it was the real gold coins, the attitude of these trash immediately changed 180 degrees: "Oh! May the great God bless you, Father. Although the bishop is busy, it is free time now. I should be able to see you. As soon as I see my dear servant of the gods. I will report it right away, and please wait a moment."
The priest said so flatteringly. He and the other two overjoyed priests put away the gold coins and happily ran up to the second floor. Fortunately, it was noon now, and generally no believers came, so these priests dared to take bribes so blatantly.
Looking left and right, Palatine sat on the bench, feeling the warm body of Lucia shivering in the sack. An inscrutable smile appeared on his face.
ps: The price negotiated with Captain Harvey in Chapter 49 has been revised. Not four thousand five hundred gold coins, but six thousand gold coins. .
Well, my math teacher died early and made such a low-level mistake. . . Teacher, I'm sorry for you. .
