Self-cultivation of dragon set

Chapter 8 The Favor of the God of Saturn

The Harvest Ceremony lasted for seven days, but apart from the divine light shot from the ceiling on the first day, there were no other miracles.Fortunately, the oracle still came down on time, indicating that the god of agriculture was still satisfied with their sacrifices and had no plans to take back the divine grace.

Although the priests and the believers who came to admire the miracle were a little disappointed, miracles are not normal, and it is normal not to show miracles.It’s okay for everyone to be lost, and they still participate in the sacrifice devoutly. After the praise, they enjoy the songs, dances and dramas arranged by the temple, and share the sacrifices enjoyed by the god of agriculture.

However, in this peaceful and peaceful situation, there are still a small group of ungodly and unbelievers who spread rumors in private, saying that Hawthorne performed a miracle on the first day of the ceremony, because he was moved by the smell of roasted whole lamb, and went down to taste the food in person. up.The rumor became more and more intense, and even the identity of the trainee priest Across was revealed by human flesh. Roja School of Magic and Martial Arts was shocked. In addition to the students of each school, many teachers who did not know the truth also went to the temple to visit. Offerings made by him.

This kind of rumor seriously hurt the reputation of Hawthorne, the god of agriculture, and everyone in the temple felt deep anger.In order to dispel this untrue rumor, the whole temple researched and personally released an official message: Hawthorne performed the miracle because the trainee priest Bai Across showed excellent talent in swordsmanship when offering sacrifices .When cutting mutton, his physical and spiritual powers reached a perfect harmony, and his physical level broke through at the last moment. The God of Saturn was attracted by this powerful and pious servant of the gods before he bestowed his divine favor.Otherwise, why did the miracle happen only on the first day of the seven-day festival, and there was no change after that?

The favor of the god of agriculture must be due to the joy of seeing the warriors, not just because the sacrifices are delicious, give the gods grace to praise the cook!

With the vigorous publicity of the temple, the active cooperation of the Roja School of Magic and Martial Arts, and the testimony of Bai Across himself, the rumors that dared to slander the God of Saturn for being greedy for food were finally eliminated.And Bai also became a man of the academy without having attended a class for a day. Every day, when countless students came to the temple for free meals, they would glance at him in the name of visiting the festival.

——Remember what people look like first, so that you can find ways to get closer in the future, and there will always be a day when you come to have a meal~~~~ Even Glass Mower, who is addicted to starry sky magic and has no interest in festivals at all They were all caught up in this craze.When he was flipping through the ancient magic system in the library, the book in his hand was suddenly taken away, and replaced by a slender and powerful hand that was calloused by the pen holder, and it slammed on the table in front of him. superior.

Serpotin Eckert's excited voice sounded above his head, breaking the tranquility of the library: "Do you know who I saw? Come with me to the Harvest Temple, the person who gave us a pot of porridge is... ..."

His voice came to an abrupt end as if someone had cut it off.Glass didn't notice his flushed face, he stood up abruptly and asked, "Did you find that person? Where is he—"

The voices of the two people were suppressed by the wall of wind elements, and then Professor Kate Shi Shiran, who was guarding the library, came over, took the collars of the two of them, and threw them on the steps outside the library. A lesson: "Xuanhua is prohibited in the library, next time you make such a loud noise, your credits will be deducted."

After scaring the two of them, she finally sent a message because they were students of the school: "The apprentice priest who is favored by the god of agriculture is a student of the bow and arrow department of the martial arts academy, and his name is Bai Across. "

"That's right, it's him! The local tyrant who gave us the stew pot and porridge!"

"White? What a strange name..." The tall and handsome figure in white robes flashed in front of Glass's eyes. For some reason, he thought of the really strange name "Grandpa", and couldn't help changing his tone: "Think about this name carefully. It's pretty normal."

"His pot is pretty good, too. It's made of pure brass and weighs more than a dozen catties." Seppertine was also a little distracted, swallowed, as if asking a friend around him, or talking to himself Said: "You said that if you can have a good relationship with him, will you be able to eat that kind of whole roast lamb in the future?"

*********************************

It was too late for the two of them to get the news.

By the time they found the stewpot piled deep in the utility room, and when they sneaked to the Harvest Temple to observe the ceremony in the magic text class, which is the easiest to skip, the Harvest Festival was actually over.But the temple was still decorated as carefully as it was during the festival, and the door was completely opened, revealing the grand ceremony inside.The hall reverberated with melodious Kagura, and the priests, trainee priests, and guard knights of the Harvest Temple gathered under the altar, lined up in two rows according to their identities, surrounded by the solemn-looking priest Oleke under the statue, and the one-knee priest A person who kneels before a statue of a god.

When Glass and the others arrived at the gate of the temple, they happened to hear a clear and solemn voice from inside the temple, swearing loudly: "The god I rely on, my master, now your servants beg you: let me be in your Let the city be for the people... I live in this world, you are in my heart, my heart is attached to you, only you are with me."

After this prayer was over, an old voice responded: "Hawthorne is tolerant of all things, he has accepted your piety. May you abide by the teachings of my God in the future, not be tempted by evil, keep your body and mind pure, and keep your body and mind pure. Everything is dedicated to God."

Sounds like wedding vows.

But serving God is similar to getting married. You have to hand over your loyalty and freedom to others, and you have to abstain from drinking and sex.From now on, let alone making a girlfriend, even if you go out for a little longer, people will ask you if you have done something bad behind your back.

Who can't think about it so much, that they will sacrifice their lives to serve God at a young age?

Standing in the crowd, Glass watched from afar the new priest in the temple get up, turned his head to face the door of the temple, revealing a slightly familiar handsome face.The man's light blue eyes flicked across the crowd, but stopped for a while when they fell on him, his eyes shook, and he seemed to have recognized him.

"Across..." He originally planned to say hello, but after the two of them briefly met, Bai immediately looked away, and his expression quickly turned cold.His complexion changed so quickly that Glass almost thought that what he saw was an illusion.

He didn't even bother to watch the rest of the ceremony, and waited patiently until the evening before Bai finally left the temple.

At this time, Bai had already put on the official priest's robe, with a pure white turban wrapped on the top, one end hanging down by the ear, with a pale golden tassel.There is no unnecessary decoration on his body, but as it is written in the poem, he is shining brilliantly with "the radiance bestowed by God".This appearance is more dazzling than when they met in the forest, and their attitude is also more indifferent. Seeing Glass and Serpentine blocking their way home, it was like looking at the weeds and stones on the side of the road. Not even a glance.

It's not that Bai doesn't want to have a good relationship with the protagonist, but Glass's sixth sense is too keen, maybe one day he will show some flaws and let him know that he is pretending to be a grandfather!In order to protect the identity of his unaccompanied grandfather who saved lives and healed the wounded from being discovered, Bai Across had to be as indifferent to him as close to Glass as the grandfather was.It is best to maintain the status of a stranger, neither will there be any friendship, nor will it become a thorn in the side of the protagonist, which is the safest way.

Bai's intentions are well-intentioned, but he is destined to be accepted by no one.

Two people couldn't stop him, and there was a brass saucepan weighing more than ten kilograms in the middle of the road.With a firm expression, Glass walked up to him with the pot in his arms: "Do you remember this pot? We saw it during the entrance examination. You left us both breakfast and the pot, and we haven't thanked you yet. My name is Glass Mower, this is my friend Surpertine..."

Of course I know your name, I even know who your seven aunts and eight aunts are and who your future wife is, and I can introduce you to a beautiful girlfriend in a few days.But I don't want to just hug your thigh and follow the route of die-hard friends.

With his hands in his sleeves, he replied indifferently: "I know. It's just a pot, it's worthless, so you can keep it. I have to go home, so I won't talk any more."

He snapped his fingers in the air, and the luxury carriage that had appeared once drove over from the side of the road again.Bai opened the car door, boarded the car and left gracefully under Glass Ruo's serious gaze.

Once again, he ignored the boy's pure and fiery heart at the beginning, and the brass saucepan that could sell for dozens of silver coins.

Back home, Bai ushered in a banquet that was even more lively than the New Year.All the relatives and friends of the Akrose family in Baixa City were invited to celebrate him taking an oath to serve the God of Saturn for life and becoming an official priest.

This is an era when one person serves God, and even his neighbors are honored.In addition to the guests they invited, many believers came uninvited, brought wine, meat and musical instruments, and used this banquet to praise the kindness of the god of agriculture.Fortunately, their neighbors are also Hawthorne believers, otherwise it would be so noisy until midnight, and I don't know how many people would secretly shoot their glass with slingshots in frustration.

While the banquet was in full swing, when Bai went to the table to toast, someone suddenly pointed to his scarf and asked, "Aren't you wearing golden ears of wheat on your head? You're wearing it wrong! The attire of junior priests does not include such decorations, at least until Only those above the intermediate level can wear ears of wheat, sickles and vines that symbolize the god of agriculture, put these away quickly, and don’t let the higher-level priests know that you have surpassed the level of dressing up.”

Golden ears of wheat?Was it the one given to him by Saturn?impossible!At that time, he was put in the interspatial ring, and he hasn't taken it out for the past two days.

Bai touched the scarf, and sure enough, he found the same golden wheat ear at the place where he found the wheat ear last time.He flipped his hands into the space ring and smiled at the man: "Thank you for reminding me. This is the reward for preparing the sacrifice. Because I became an official priest today, I was so happy that I wore it in private. I will definitely do it next time." Put it away, you won't wear it again until you become an intermediate priest."

He dealt with that person away, and reached into the space of the ring with his mental power, and suddenly found that there was only a golden wheat ear there.In other words, what appeared on his head today was exactly the one given to him by the god of agriculture that day.But he has been keeping this thing well, and he didn't put it together with the turban, so how could it somehow get on his head again?

After all the guests had left, he called his parents and two elder brothers to stop him, closed the door, and told them about the supernatural events caused by the ears of wheat.

After hearing the story, the four of them stared at him fiercely.Before he could say such treasonous words as "Let's find a priest to exorcise the evil spirits", the family of four knelt down in front of the ears of wheat in ecstasy, praising the kindness of the God of Agriculture and thanking the god for his kindness to the Across family. , to their sons and younger brothers.

Naturally, Bai also knelt down, and the phrase "find a priest to exorcise evil spirits" twirled around on the tip of his tongue, and then changed it to: "Shall we make a shrine and enshrine this golden ear of wheat?"

Bacardi's sharp eagle eyes swept across his son's face, his face was too solemn and pious, as if he was about to fight, he said solemnly: "This is something that God bestowed on you, how can you put it at home casually? Take it with you... yes, just sew it on the lining of your underwear, and let Hawthorne's grace bathe your body forever!"

Help, fanatics are terrible!
