Chapter 155 Missionaries
When Gao Wen brought Amber and Hetty with the soldiers' guidance to a construction site near the brick kiln factory, the strange priest who suddenly appeared on the territory had been busy for a while.
This was a unkempt, dusty and extremely strong man. He was sending baskets of heavy bricks to the place where the wall was being built with the workers. Although it was already cold and frost moon, he was sweating like the workers, so that the worn-out priest robe was taken off by him and tied it around his waist as a waist cloth, revealing the strong muscles and bronze skin of the upper body.
The brawny meat seemed to be ready to die with the pagans at any time.
The workers were working with this man who suddenly appeared, but from time to time they were secretly looking up at him. It was obvious that they had already discovered that this was a strange stranger. The supervisor (and recorder) of the construction site of this office was watching helplessly. After discovering that the lord arrived, the supervisor immediately trotted to meet him: "Sir! You are here, this is really..."
"What's wrong with this person?" Gao Wen looked at the strong man on the construction site who was busy carrying bricks. "The priest of the Holy Light Church? This style? Why did he suddenly run to my territory to do work?"
"We don't know where he came from!" The supervisor looked crazy. "He said he was ordered to come to the south to preach, and then asked the workers who were interested in the Holy Light. Who knows what the person's origin is? Of course, no one paid attention to him. I also told him that everyone's work has not been completed now, and no one has time to listen to him. As a result, this man ran to move bricks without saying a word. He couldn't stop him from being so powerful!"
"... You can tell that you can't be too weak when you look at the burly man in shock." Amber glanced at the burly man in shock. She just heard that a suspected priest of the Holy Light Sect ran here and was shocked. She made a plan to fight with the other party for 300 rounds (or be beaten up by the other party) and then asked Gao Wen to make a fee for medical expenses. But even with her brain circuit, she didn't expect that the number one person who came came was like this, and she couldn't react. "Isn't this really a paladin who came out wearing the wrong clothes and wearing a robe?"
The supervisor spread his hands and said, "I asked, and I said it was a missionary who traveled from the central region."
Gao Wen frowned and waved his hand to the soldiers who followed and the supervisor in front of him: "Don't be nervous for now, I'll go over and contact."
As he said that, he led Amber and Hetty forward.
The workers who were working quickly saw Gao Wen approaching, and they stopped their work nervously and awe-inspiringly to salute, but Gao Wen stopped them with his eyes and waved his hand: "Don't care about me, just be busy with your own."
The strong man who worked finally noticed the change in the atmosphere. He took off a basket of bricks from his shoulders, looked up at the surroundings, and turned his head to look at Gao Wen: "The person in charge is here? Is he the person in charge?"
This style of speaking...is not like the priests commonly found in the Church of Holy Light.
Gao Wen is now wearing casual clothes. Although he carried the Trailblazer Sword with him, he was blocked by a sword sheath. Apart from being tall and tall, it would be difficult for an outsider to associate a big man who could not even see the decent guards when he was traveling with Duke Cecil (Amber is a dissatisfied guard). Realizing that the strong man in front of him did not see his identity, Gao Wen followed him and said, "Yes, I am the manager of this area. What are you doing?"
"That's great. Finally I saw someone who speaks well!" The big man looked particularly happy. He wiped his sweat casually, then took out a wrinkled document from the robe tied around his waist for a long time, and finally took out a wrinkled document and handed it over, "Can you help me hand this over to your lord? I stood on a high place and watched for a long time, but I couldn't find where his castle was."
Gao Wen took the document and found a brick pile next to him to sit down, and signaled the other party to sit down. Then he looked down and saw that the document written in high-end parchment only had a simple sentence: I appointed the Lord's loyal servant, the Holy Light's pastor, Wright Aviken, to the South, to preach the Lord's teachings and to preach the Way of Holy Light.
Below are the emblem of the Church of Holy Light and the seal of a certain bishop.
Is this a missionary?
Gao Wen was stunned for a moment and put away the document: "Okay, I will forward it, but I have to ask you a few questions first."
"Okay... wait a moment," the man was just halfway through his head, and suddenly stood up and stopped a serf who was walking past him. "Wait a moment, your arm is a little ill."
The serf stopped blankly, and suddenly showed a hint of nervousness when he saw Gao Wen sitting next to him. However, the latter just nodded slightly, saying that there was no need to care about Gao Wen and was also curious about what this inexplicable missionary wanted to do.
Then he saw the missionary named "Wright" pressing one hand on the shoulder of the serf, and the other hand drew the emblem of the God of Holy Light in the air, and chanting the words of prayer. As the prayer progressed, a slight white light also appeared on his hands. A calm and peaceful breath filled the surrounding air. The naked and unkempt man looked a little holy in this holy light.
Soon, the treatment was over. Missionary Wright took his hand back and nodded to the serf: "Okay, there is a little secret injury, and it will not happen in the future if it is cloudy or rainy in the future. May the Lord protect you."
The serf moved his shoulders incredibly, probably feeling obvious comfort. He couldn't help but nod and thanked Wright with an excited expression, and then returned to his work position while moving his shoulders.
Missionary Wright clapped his hands like he had done something insignificant, turned to look at Gao Wen: "I'm done, please ask."
Gao Wen watched the whole process calmly, and only at the end was a little surprised that the "missionary" only said "May the Lord protect you", and did not take this opportunity to stop the Holy Light Way that had been taught for half an hour. Then he came to his senses and nodded to Lait: "Are you here to preach?"
"It was said in the documents that the central diocese sent me," the man nodded, "The signing was Bishop Mergol. I set out from the Holy Spirit Plain and walked all the way here. I was rushing for a few minutes, preaching most of the time, stopping and stopping all the way, and it has been more than a year."
Then he added: "I only recently learned that the Cecil family had established a new land here. Originally, my last stop was Tanzan, but now the next stop is here. I am going to live in this place for a long time. If I can get permission from the Resurrection Duke, I will build a church here."
Amber poked Gao Wen in the arm and muttered in a low voice: "Hey, what do you say you?"
Gao Wen calmly stretched the muscles on his arm, causing Amber's fingers to retract them as if they were poked on the steel plate, and then frowned and looked at Wright: "Then why did you suddenly come to help with the work?"
"The supervisor just said, everyone is working so they don't have time to listen to my missionary preaching," Wright shrugged, "Then I'll help them finish their work and can't we preach the mission."
"It's because of this?"
Wright looked at it for granted: "Yes, it's because of this."
At this time, Hetty finally couldn't help but speak: "Forgive me, but I have also seen missionaries of the Holy Light Church who traveled abroad, but none of them are like you... Are you a Paladin before?"
"I am a priest, always," Wright looked down at his muscles, taking it for granted again, "but it is more dangerous to preach outside. He often encounters wild beasts and robbers. The priest himself has too little fighting skills, and it is easy to protect himself by exercising and exercising. And sometimes he doesn't have enough money, so he has to help the locals do some work and eat. It's not okay to be stronger."
"The missionaries of the Holy Light Church do not have the tradition of working and changing food," Hetty looked strange. "The extraordinary people don't need to sell their strength wherever they go, let alone selling their strength to ordinary people. This is something I have never heard of."
"Miss, this is wrong," Wright immediately looked serious, "The Way of the Holy Light tells us that people cannot get something for nothing, and the Way of the Holy Light tells us that everyone is a people of the Holy Light. Since they are all a people of the Holy Light, why should they divide ordinary people and not ordinary people?"
Amber looked up and down at the strong man in surprise: "You really take these words seriously?"
Wright once again showed a natural expression: "How can the teachings of the Way of Holy Light be taken as false?"
Looking at this strange missionary, Gao Wen didn't speak for a moment.
He was quickly thinking about whether the person in front of him was suspicious, guessing whether he was related to Princess Veronica's previous visit, and speculating how credible what he said was.
If those words are true, then there seems to be no need to worry about the Holy Light Pastor who has been traveling a year ago, and at that time, Gao Wen had not yet lifted his coffin, and the arrival of this pastor was an accident.
If none of them are true, a Holy Light missionary suddenly came to this territory, which is something that Gao Wen thinks is more sensitive.
But somehow, looking at this Holy Light missionary with a very beautiful style, Gao Wen always felt that this matter... had nothing to do with the conspiracy.
But no matter what, even if he had a little vigilance and barrier against the current belief in the gods in this world, as a lord, he could not drive such a missionary out casually, especially when the other party did not violate any laws in this land and even took the initiative to help work and treat patients, he could not do this. Otherwise, the laws and order he promoted would be hit.
And he also wanted to observe how this person came from and what purpose he had.
While Gao Wen was thinking, missionary Wright also looked at the three people in front of him and suddenly asked: "By the way, are you three interested in the Way of Holy Light?"
Gao Wen and the other two said nothing in unison:
"I am a believer of the goddess of magic and I don't want to believe in his God."
"You're slutty, I believe in the shadow!"
"Not interested, thank you."
