LOG IN
Archbishop of the diocese who are traveling north, and did not let Douri wait too long, the next morning arrived.
A master of the arrival of one of several provinces Senate Archbishop of course, is caused by an earthquake of a local magistrate. Archbishop of identity, Bidu Wei said that the Duke may only high not low. Let alone mastered several provinces of the Senate, the hands of a financial tax enormous sums each year, and also the one in charge of the Holy Knights, the parish millions of believers, but also as a future pope.
Such a person, but it seems not so arrogant to imagine among Douri. And before the mayor says different. The archbishop's entourage is not much. In fact, Douri thought it would usher in a team, but in the morning when it came only a carriage on the dock only.
Under surrounded by local officials, the Archbishop of several of his entourage boarded the boat together, and DU Wei met.
The first meeting was very friendly, the Archbishop Maximos was a very gracious man, wearing a black clergy robe, you can see that he's wearing a very simple, this gown old, their corner of the place, as if there are some signs of wear. His silver hair, erect very clean, warm face with a warm smile, eyes kindly. From any point of view, he does not like the Archbishop in charge of several provinces in the Senate, but fell like a religion in a small local priest, a regular features, smile kindly old man. The only difference, probably his eye.
His eyes clear and deep, flashing his age-old wisdom and unique smart.
. "Dear Duke adults," the Archbishop of Maximos Douri slightly bowed: "First of all I want to thank you, thank you to allow me to take your boat back to the empire, and thank you here for me a at night."
DU Wei smiled and also the ceremony: "You are too kind, Your Eminence to have such a distinguished guest you are my boat, it is my honor and, more than spending a night here, and there is nothing, you see, the river bank. the scenery is very good too. "
Subsequently, after greeting the two, archbishop introduced his entourage.
In fact, as archbishop of a diocese, DU Wei strange thing is, the Archbishop Maximos entourage too little. He came on board, in addition to himself, the only three people. A driver, a man wearing a clergy robe, presumably the role of vicar and the like. There is also a knight in armor, but the Knights helped the driver to carry salute went.
Subsequently, DU Wei dismissed local officials who see them off, the Maximos welcomed into his cabin.
. "Sit down, my archbishop," Douri smiled and let his men brought tea, and then said:. "To be honest, most of the clergy but your job I've ever seen."
"Oh?" Maximos look for a move: "Duke of adults, but that you were born in the Royal Park to your status, you do not have an audience before the pope had what His Majesty His Majesty the Pope in recent years, although rarely seen in public.? However, the annual temple festival, or will His Majesty personally presided over."
DU Wei shook his head: "No, oh, I'm sorry, I'm not a believer temple so I did not attend the ceremony temple of light.."
The Maximos really very gracious, and also after hearing nothing strange countenance betrayed, just have to smile: "I hope the Duke of adults will soon enter into God's embrace in the future if you change your mind day. I would like for you personally baptism. "
With 后马克西莫斯 to introduce additional Douri old man around him: "This is my closest associates and most loyal friend, Father Donald, is one of the vicar of the parish north of us." Dayton for a moment, he smiled and said: "this time we are back to the Royal Park for the annual festival of the temple, and in accordance with tradition, the pope also meet with his Majesty, reporting to him myself last year in the parish of pity. our boat is broken, can only be temporary ashore, I would like this also brought dozens of followers, but because the brigade traveling walking too slow, for I arrived here, they had to leave the brigade traveling, sitting alone chaise first rushed to the scene. "
DU Wei nodded, thinking: you are in a hurry to report back to work, but also to please the pope, the pope be able to inherit the position of a bit more competition among component, no wonder so anxious.
Mouth but laughed: "Graces, do not worry, I have a lot on board servant, in my place, you will be treated in the most distinguished guests I've had quite cleared up a clean cabin for rest. . ah, there, I think you must have not eaten breakfast, I have people ready. "
They exchanged greetings for a while, the vicar Donald has been some faint look uneasy, and the Maximos demeanor compared to the vicar Donald has become a little more wretched, looks the most common is like a skinny old man, a pair of eyes there is more white than black, skinny, looks also not quite lovable.
Douri looked at Maximos and the two exchanged greetings, he seemed hesitant look several times.
At this time, out came a mighty powerful voice, heard through the door panels are growled, like muffled thunder in general.
"Bishop, salute has somehow."
Maximos hearing the sound, sincere smile to face: "ah, this is my escort accompanying the Rhine, the Duke of adults, please let him come in."
DU Wei was allowed, the cabin door was open, from the outside into a magnificent extremely Han!
Even in the northwest Douri accustomed to seeing a variety of Reggie, including his own, under the command of al-Qaeda and Longbottom, who are the big scary guy, but after a trip to the Northwest Army, also met the high arm Lu many Reggie ......
Even so can, when first saw this Maximos of the guard, DU Wei could not help but took a deep breath!
This guy really is a warrior ...... what?
From the visual view, this is called the Rhine guy, tall and at least two meters away! And I am afraid of the height called the Little Giant! Because he stood in the cabin, his head had just the top to the ceiling.
He wore a maximum number of knights armor, but also the sacred mission of Knight Rider style, the same survey was stout than Dire body,If filled with an explosive force! His armor exposed on the outside of the site, the so-called "bodybuilder" muscle Qiu knot, I am afraid Douri past life have seen, they are also far less. Juhan ...... such a visual Douri just a moment, immediately determine one thing: This guy's arm is definitely thicker than his thigh! And it is twice as thick!
He was such a monster ...... man?
He looks very strange, a square-shaped face, the outline also like normal people, it can be really looks like a human. Lion nose and wide mouth, coupled with the pair of eyes like bells, like, is like an incarnation of the adult lion. Coupled with his long brown hair, he looks more like a lion's mane!
Such a person, if it is not visible during the day, but at night encounter, then people will absolutely petrified scared, thinking he saw a monster of a lion's head person.
He simply stop to the cabin, with at his side, two guards beside Douri men, looks as if into a dwarf. Also, look at how Douri, can feel as if this guy called the Rhine, a pair of eyes, full of wild taste of indelible.
DU Wei looked at looked at his escort, Maximos smiled:.. "Archduke sir, this is my escort, but also my most loyal men, Rhine was the name I gave him, he looks odd students, life experience is very poor. Many years ago, I found him in the wild, he actually followed a herd of wild growth, seems to be small because looks strange, abandoned by their parents in the wilderness, the great beast raised. I think he poor, put him back dependents. now think about it, it has been ten years. You do not look at his appearance rude, in fact, be a good boy. "
Then he looked to find hands, his face full of loving expression: "Rhine, to the Grand Duke tulip salute."
"Yes." Like the sound is muffled, the Rhine and immediately knelt on one knee all sorts, a line most grand knight one knee ceremony. He looked like a heavy kneel, DU Wei heart even worry, this guy kneeling afraid to have their own cabin floor kneeling cracked.
"Seen tulip Duke of adults." Muffled sound in general, almost every Douri shook eardrums ache. See such a magnificent extremely fierce Han, DU Wei could not help but also the hearts of some love, and quickly let him up, as people moved to the chair for him to sit. He's just such a great header, go without proper chair he was sitting. Ordinary chair, his ass is a pressure, suddenly snapped, broken off.
Rhine looked bewildered look, Maximos ha ha smiled: "I am the knight, weighing more than ordinary people too, five or six times his body weight, but ordinary people, ordinary chair, but can not take the Duke of adults. let him stand it. "
Douri also haha laughed: "I have a small-minded salt in the Northwest and the prairie person, usually the most favorite is like Reggie Rhine knight, not a chair to sit it does not matter!" Then he shouted something to drink, and immediately moved the people a short to collapse, and that makes the Rhine and sat down. Called people brought to the prepared meals in the cabin and Maximos they dine together.Specially prepared people to the Rhine in a vat of wine and a pot of beef.
Douri touches on the Rhine maximum interest, watching the Rhine big mouth happy to drink a barrel of wine, he casually put huge barrel held up, and grew wide mouth, a few Gulp, thick Adam's apple up and down , suddenly poured down a small half-baked. The heavy barrel down, just sighed and looked at DU Wei, a look of honest smile: "Thank you, I have not drink so happy it!."
Douri surprised a moment: "how do you normally do not drink it, although I remember the holy knight requirements penance, may also not have to avoid alcohol, right?."
Next 马克西莫斯 but sank his face: "Rhine, you have forgotten what I said it before eating, not how to pray??"
Rhine immediately put down the barrels on top of that Biao defend face full of shame: "Yes."
With Donald and the bishop 后马克西莫斯 together, two hands and embracing, looking for food in front of the eyes of prayer, murmuring: "Thank the gods, so I have edible food, clothes to wear ......"
Such prayer, although she DU Wei disagree, but looking at this 马克西莫斯 look of piety is from the heart, not fake, do not say anything. Out of courtesy, put down the knife and fork, and so they finished praying.
So few people finally opened his eyes, Douri was laughed: "? Bishop, you are the knight would be too harsh of it, such a fervent, normally do not drink it."
马克西莫斯 smile soon, could not help but slightly embarrassed, whispered; "This ...... Duke of adults, you do not know, Rhine burly far better than ordinary people, and his appetite, but also surprisingly large, eat every day something that is worth five or six times the ordinary people, but I am afraid that is ten times the amount of alcohol have more than twenty times. Although I am as archbishop, but the salary is limited, usually do not have much money to give him to buy alcohol drink. "
Douri Hearing this, could not help but marvel.
salary?
Are you kidding! Archbishop dignified, actually depend salary life?
Although Douri also know that any formal clergy, shrines are paid salaries but ....... Archbishop what capacity? Is equal to the one under the princes of the Church! In charge of church finances and force several provinces!
Such a person, said to myself this is the case, wanted to show his clean it? Douri has always been no good impression of the temple of light, because in his view, is nothing more than some of these guys stick of God to get money only. In the Northwest, he knew several of the local bishop of the Temple, are all Gluttons. Before a compassionate man
Look, behind food and wine, eat all the blood and sweat of those ordinary poor dedication!
The same is taxed, but the money to the official and stick to these gods are greatly different. At least Douri ourselves in the northwest, although the official taxes, but today repair a bridge, a road repair tomorrow. Weekdays also responsible for civil affairs, the so-called taxes from the people, giving back to people.
God can stick these Gluttons, collected taxes done? Cool sitting in front of the temple of God with prayer few words, and then take a sum of blood and sweat of those believers?
This can ...... 马克西莫斯 archbishop, but in his face revealed a completely different from the other stick of God's honest?Such a move. Is that true or false?
Douri view, such a person, or is truly compassionate moral saint, either, that is big and evil generation!
DU Wei looked at the face, opening the Donald vicar smiled. This guy not only looks wretched, and to speak seems to be more acute mean: "Duke of adults, probably right person our God, has always been somewhat biased I do not deny it in other places, as some clergy, unworthy of them God gown. but in the jurisdiction of the Archbishop Maximos, including our own, each of clergy, are in strict accordance with his salary standard of living. absolutely no religious shrine deficit tax act, there is nothing more corrupt greedy ugly . "
Then, the bishop pointed Donald in front of a plate of exquisite cuisine, laughing:. "Today also been blessed by the Duke of adults, to eat such delicious food on weekdays in religion, I and Maximos adult lunch, but also it is a stew of beans. "
Douri his face a little weird, the Donald continued:. "As for wine ...... Maximos adults have always advocated saving, wine is a luxury, but also waste a lot of food to brewing So, in our North diocese, the bishop has always been exhorted believers who do not advocate drinking. "
Hearing this, carefully looked Douri these guys, some began to doubt, but look at this gown Maximos God and Donald Banjiu who are not new, multi-worn place. And the Rhine, body armor style is also very old, and even the foot of the boots, are also obviously wearing something for a long time.
These guys is their makeshift boat, speaking, and he is no connection, if it is fake, then also it is not necessary in the face of such disguise themselves.
Moreover, the Rhine is a look at a chest unintentional machine yokel, it does not look like a guy who would lie.
Is Temple ...... these people, the really no one-million, devout believers truly compassionate?
Thought of this, the hearts of DU Wei could not help give birth to a little more respect, and sent a barrel of wine let up, smiled and said: "If so, today, on my site, let the Rhine knight, a good drink it . "
This can Rhine, after drinking a bucket, but honestly put down the barrels distinction: "Thank you Duke of adults, but ...... I am responsible for a barrel is enough to protect the safety of the godfather, not get drunk.."
godfather?
DU Wei looked at Maximos one, Maximos smiled: "ah, yes, the kids are raised me, I have to give him a formal baptism, he had admitted me as godfather."
Douri nodded his head, looked at the Rhine, sudden heart of a dynamic, eyes fell on top of knight badge on his chest, and could not help a bit of shock.
Hussein Douri was originally around great knight of the Knights of the Holy length, weekdays Hussein has long been the symbol of how to recognize various levels of identity badge of holy knights were told Douri.
In general, the Holy Knight's chest will wear two badges, one is a symbol of official Knight Rider Association issued rank insignia, and the other one is representing the sacred badge of knighthood Knights.This can Rhine chest, but did not badge Knight Association ...... In other words, he has no formal Knight level?
And even his only egg symbolizes the holy knight identity badge ...... according to Hussein told Douri badge level point of view, the Rhine While this badge chest, but it is among the levels within the sacred Knights, most low of one!
A "holy knight candidate" badge!
Candidates?
In other words, such a Juhan, actually are not regarded as official holy knight, but merely a candidate only.
Douri not judge by appearances fool, of course, I do not think this guy are bigger, it is certainly much skill.
However, this Maximos dare to bring up such a guard on the road, this can conclude that the Rhine must have a great ability.
But, a candidate ...... knight?
DU Wei heart of a dynamic, deliberately asked:.. "Since it is a sacred Rhine knighthood, then he normally should have paid it I can hear the church of the Holy Knight is extremely favored this view, the Rhine Knights normally do No money to drink it? "
Donald appears to be a very good at how the wind blows, he listened to chuckle:. "This is not an official ...... Rhine holy knight, in order to follow the convenience Bishop, was linked to a name only."
Maximos but smiled lightly: "I followed the Rhine a long time, I do not want him to leave me the Duke of adults you know, if you want to become a true holy knight, leaving me to knight. after the group headquarters for rigorous training. this child came to me ten years ago, did not leave me too, I can not bear to leave him, so just let him hang a name only. "
Paused, then smiled and said: "And it is not practiced what Rhine martial art and sword, by relying on nothing but just not quite a brute force you to say, he was now, even the basic of fencing will not. so, I am afraid even to attend his training holy knight, it's usually a pass. Donald was right, so he hung up the identity of a knight candidate, just to follow me around, nominally convenient Bale . "
Here, and not good to ask Douri down, few people talked freely northwest of some local scenery, say some of the things in the parish.
After the meal is finished, Douri was about to send them back to the cabin to rest, suddenly out of old smoke came in, his face looks somewhat head, after the door, said:. "Duke of adults ...... on the river front, quirky"
"what happened?"
Old smoke hesitated, Douri said:. "Speak directly"
"!" Old smoke look solemn: "This is the narrowest in front of the river where there is a ship in the middle of the river stopped cross our path, we fought under the banner of the past, let them pass, they replied that the ship is bad a. "
"Can not go around it?" DU Wei frown.
. "Adults" old smoke took a deep breath: "Their boat is not small, but the cross in the river, but also to lay down a few boats around, our standard-bearer told me, the other said they are ready to make the big boat the cargo on board the ship to shore. but this way, they blocked the river,We can not be passed. And I see those boats have weird ...... I've had decelerated, and told the brothers alert to see if they do anything weird. "
Douri Enliaoyisheng, look also see the joy, anger, just a touch of looked around Maximos a few people.
Sure enough, that Donald is a face immediately changed, but added Maximos look calm, but looked toward Douri one, then sighed:. "Duke of adults, it seems we give you trouble."
"Trouble?" DU Wei smiled.
Maximos seems a little embarrassed, thought for a moment: "Duke of adults, so be it, stopping trouble you, then give us a boat, we go ashore this thing which is come down on us, your noble status. Do not go in or involved as well. "
That one said, DU Wei heart also committed herself: "Your Eminence say anything ...... fine day, you as the identity of the Metropolitan, Does anyone dare openly to intercept it on your halfway Is the Pope? command?"
Donald archdeacon snorted: "Your Majesty how the pope would do such a thing Well, Your Majesty has always been appreciated by our bishop ...... but ......!"
Here, Maximos coughed, Donald was quickly closed his mouth.
"Duke of adults, or please give us a boat, we landed it." Maximos look of sincerity: "This is an internal matter of our God, if you are involved on, you will bring big trouble to thank me. You let us take a boat, but I do not like to let you to get into this kind of thing. "
Then he shouted in front of the Rhine:. "Rhine, those guys got the day before yesterday, we are ready to leave it."
"Yes, godfather, you wait here, I'll go out of their food !!" Juhan heard this and immediately lost a bracket in his hand, he stood up, it is necessary to go out.
Douri looked old smoke, waiting Douri ordered.
DU Wei looked at the Maximos, looked at the old smoke.
It is true, this kind of thing, it is not necessary to involve themselves in it ......
However, people in his own boat, with things-to-door, put people rush to disembark ...... if this is the case, then I dignified Duke of tulips, but also how diving? Face discreditable!
Besides ...... it seems, probably infighting Temple?
Infighting ...... very good! Very good ah!
Thought here, Douri deadpan: "... Bishop Please sit right now are my guests tulips although not a great man, but it is not just let people intimidate coward in my boat."
With Houdu Wei also stood up for the old smoke ordered: "!! Go, my tulips came up I want to see the flag, I would dare to intercept the ship on the way."
Etc. After the old smoke out, Douri deeply looked at Maximos, Chen Sheng said:! "Bishop, you do not say anything any more since you disembark in my boat, whether you without disembark, the trouble is I not noodles. anyway, you are my boat is my guest, if I let my guests at the site was damaged, later the Duke of tulips I also use it a man? "
He then approached the two-step, whispered: "What is the trouble in the end,I think you should need to tell me some of it. "
Maximos eyes flash of gratitude, then heaved a long breath, then Douri did not directly answer, but it seems an understatement to say that such a sentence:
"The pope Majesty the past two years, the body is getting worse ......"
And these words as if the problem has nothing to Douri, but Douri, suddenly be enlightened heart, as if his face smiled, then turned around and looked at Donald, also enigmatic say one thing: "Yes south of man?"
Donald hesitated a moment, whispered:. "It should be the southeast diocese of it."
DU Wei heard here, the heart a little security, and soon to give birth to an idea.
Why struggle within the church?
Since it is so, this thing, then you will let me hide, I will not hide!
To deliberately expose his face looking angry, loudly: "Parish southeast of people actually hand out to the north side of the north no one really think we do!!"
Then, DU Wei has to step out of the cabin.
