How to wear a goddess statue

The short stay in Tanner City was just an episode in the caravan's itinerary.

Traveling always makes people grow. The characters and styles in different regions bring different insights to everyone. What's more, the princess is not only for a long-distance trip, she regards it as a training and a way to find possible help OK.

The former is dominant and the latter is secondary.

In other words, the process of attracting supporters for one's own future is itself a kind of tempering.

Until the first ten days of November of this year, the caravan had already traveled more than half of the way, and stopped at a city in the middle of Solan that believed in the river goddess. They will stay here for a while, because the princess's birthday is approaching.

She needs a bar mitzvah at the temple of the river goddess.

For this important upcoming ceremony, many of the companions have no sense of reality.

The boss who is decisive and considerate in dealing with things on weekdays, no matter how young she looks, who would really treat her like a girl who is not yet an adult?This fact has long been subconsciously ignored.

Turning around, I saw that the princess was going to hold the coming-of-age ceremony now, and the group of them would probably watch the ceremony at the temple... This kind of inexplicable and weird mood is really indescribable.

And the weird thing is——

"The person in charge of the ceremony seems to be Lady Lorca."

"You mean the one who has always been inseparable from Her Royal Highness?"

"It can't be, isn't it wrong to let a female official preside over the coming-of-age ceremony, shouldn't it be the priest of the temple here?"

A few members of the caravan had nothing to do, chatting outside a goods store that cooperated with the caravan.

As members of the escorted caravan, they knew a lot about the queen, and they also knew that there was a blue-eyed female official who entered and exited with His Highness. However, even the coming-of-age ceremony could be presided over by the female official, which was inevitable. It makes people wonder.

"His Royal Highness is not a nonsense person. Let me tell you, Lady Lorca may have a special status. Otherwise, if an ordinary lady stands in front of the statue to preside over the ceremony, who knows if it will cause Goddess Rhodes' displeasure."

One of the caravan members had a whim.

"I think so too." Someone echoed, "Have you ever seen the female officer take the initiative to talk to someone other than the princess? No! Looking at her attitude towards the princess, it's so natural. I don't believe this is the behavior that a female officer should have. "

"I see!" The third person suddenly realized.

"What did you find, let's hear it."

The third person's tone was mysterious and convincing: "Miss Lorca should have been left to His Royal Highness by the late king, otherwise, how could His Highness trust her so much? I guess, the identity of the female officer is just a disguise, maybe she is actually one of Acht Priests, or they are court ladies, or relatives of the first queen, otherwise they are not qualified to preside over the coming-of-age ceremony of His Highness, right?"

Several other people agreed deeply and nodded one after another.

However, at this moment, a deliberate low cough suddenly came from behind them. Hearing this sound, several people hurriedly turned their heads, and saw Lena, the deputy commander of the legion, who was wearing a strong suit.

Lena is better than a personal soldier than a personal soldier, and usually follows Her Royal Highness, and sure enough, they immediately saw the princess herself.

"Your boss asked you to go in and move the goods."

Lena folded her arms and smiled teasingly.

The princess, on the other hand, looked at a few people across the heroic female military officer, her long eyebrows raised slightly, and her expression showed no joy or anger.

Beside her, the "female officer" who was the center of the topic just now remained indifferent, and did not cast a glance in this direction.

The members of the caravan looked at me and looked at you, and suddenly they didn't dare to arrange the private affairs of the princess. The first one was lower than the other, and they walked into the store quickly.

Lena shrugged. She actually kind of sympathized with what these guys who were whispering together said.

Compared with these people, Lena knew more. For example, the female official named Lorca was not a female official at all, but a temple scribe.

Following the princess into the border army, her identity became the cavalry of the personal guard.

When she was away from home, she transformed into a female official again.

Both the royal guard and Lena are very loyal to the princess. They will never talk about things that outsiders don't understand.

Even so, it is inevitable to secretly diverge thoughts in my heart, guessing the origin of this young woman who is trusted by the princess.

If it was just the scribe that the princess met in the Cadella Temple, this kind of love and trust that makes others feel shocked when they look at it is too much.

Therefore, Lena also felt that Lorca should be someone the princess knew well in the court. Maybe the king had a premonition to arrange it in advance, or maybe Lorca was loyal and did not change, so she followed all the way to Cadilla...

Anyway, for His Highness, Lorca must be a close existence close to his family. It is always right to see through without revealing, respect without contempt.

Eleuil: "Lena."

Lena was shocked: "Yes!"

"Everything that should be discussed is over. You watch the handover of the goods. Let's walk around the city and go back before evening."

"Okay, please rest assured, Your Highness."

Lena watched the two figures leave side by side, and for some reason, suddenly froze.

She can be considered to have watched the princess grow from her childishness to her current appearance, and she is also used to seeing the backs of these two people close together. In the past, it looked like an elder leading a little girl, and an older sister leading a younger sister. Now they are still as close, but it is inexplicable The natural warmth is missing.

"There won't be conflicts, right? It doesn't look like it either."

Lena tapped her chin, unable to figure it out, and finally had to blame it on her eyesight, which was a strange feeling.

In this sub-city where the goddess of the Yilu River is the main belief, the signs of snow tea flowers and blue herons can be seen everywhere, the blessing signs hanging at the door of the shops, the blue heron sculptures at the intersection, and the amulets worn by people who come and go...

Some are delicate and lifelike, and some are rough and only the shape can be seen, but they are all equally alive.

Outside the public garden not far away, a child lost his amulet and cried anxiously.

The adults are coaxing with great anxiety, and they also feel sorry for the lost amulet. For most people, the amulet is the most precious accessory on their body.

Rhodes passed by, and moved his fingertips lightly.

The amulet left in the crack of a certain floor tile suddenly disappeared, and in the blink of an eye, it reappeared by the pool at the entrance of the garden.

The adult raised his head inadvertently, and was stunned for a moment: "Look at that, is it your amulet?"

The child rushed forward to take a look, and smiled through tears: "It's mine, it's mine! Mom, look, I've bitten this horn before!"

My lord just breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Goddess Rhodes, for your blessing—" Then, when I heard the second half of the sentence, I suddenly became angry, "Don't let me worry, even dare to bite the amulet, it's right Do you know the disrespect of the goddess?"

Luo Das took a look from the corner of the eye, and walked by calmly. The mother and son would not know that the lost and recovered amulet was related to a certain god passing by.

Sometimes, Rhodes would use his divine power to participate in such small things.

It can be regarded as a random response to the wishes of believers, or it can be regarded as some kind of experiment, but she is not eager to know the answer.

As for whether divine power can be used and under what circumstances, the other gods have already summed it up. She is now exploring by the way, and she will naturally be able to verify it when she goes to the kingdom of God to participate in the banquet of the gods.

"You seem to enjoy helping out."

Eleuil sighed beside him.

Rhodes smiled: "After all, he is my believer."

When they said this, they happened to pass by a small shop selling local weaving products. Eleuil stopped here, and after a glance, he settled on a snow tea pattern hairband embroidered with silver thread.

Eleuil picked it up, looked at it carefully, and paid the shop owner.

Then it was transferred to Luo Dasi.

The queen said with her mouth: "Today's sacrifice."

Luo Dasi had just picked up a waist ornament for a closer look, and couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, shook the waist ornament, and responded with a slow mouth: "So, today's gift from God?"

"I accepted it without hesitation."

The princess made a sound, but the action of receiving it was very gentle.

The shop owner looked around blankly, not understanding what these two young ladies who looked like nobles or rich merchants were playing riddles.

But it doesn't matter, just get the money.

The boss added two transactions to the ledger with a smile.

This roaming stopped near the rear city gate.

According to the urban layout planning of this period, the farther away from the center of the city, the less valued it is. This seemingly ordinary path near the city gate connects the slums and leads to the most despised city except slaves. class path.

Almost every city has such a neglected corner.

In the process of traveling, Eleuil has always consciously allowed himself to see as much as possible.

Of course, she had also explored this kind of place before, and she didn't let Rhodes go with her. She looked thoughtful when she came back, and she went there several times after that.

Rhodes actually wanted to know her views on the poor and slaves, but the princess never mentioned it, and Rhodes didn't ask.

This is not an easy question to answer.

When I returned to the temporary residence in this city, it happened to be in the evening, and it was time for dinner.

After dinner, Rhodes returned to his room, unbuttoned his robe, and looked down at the hairband Eleuil had bought.

At that time, for convenience, I tied it directly on my wrist, but now I can try it.

Facing the bronze mirror standing on the table, Luotas pulled back his long hair, tied it with a hair tie, looked at the figure in the mirror, thought for a while, and then closed his eyes.

The figure in the mirror gradually changed, the black hair turned into silver, and the face quietly changed in subtle places. When he opened his eyes again, it was the original appearance of Luotus.

"It is true that silver hair is more suitable."

Rhodes whispered to himself, and after a while, the corners of his mouth curled slightly.

Regardless of whether it is a sacrifice or a gift from the gods, in essence, it is a small gift that is given casually every day.

When seeing a gadget of interest, the first reaction is to pick the right one and give it away, and at the same time, he is also the recipient of the gift from the other party. This is a difficult thing for the former Lotus .

Speaking of gifts...

His thoughts naturally jumped to the coming-of-age ceremony a few days later, and the congratulatory gift that was already in preparation.

Originally, I wanted to ask the courier to help bring it. For the sake of safety, maybe it would be more appropriate to separate the avatar to get it by myself.

Then the problem is coming.

——How are the avatars divided?

The author has something to say:

Sigh, it's really hot today, walking outside is like being roasted by fire, and entering the dormitory is like entering a steamer.

Sitting in the dormitory is okay, after all, there is an air conditioner, but at night, the lights are turned off and the electricity is cut off, so as soon as I go to bed, I feel like I am lying on a teppanyaki iron plate, and it is cooked after turning over.

At times like this, I feel that it is good to be non-human.

The water god snow girl iceberg monster, the snake spirit blood slime, even if it is a robot that can automatically adjust its body temperature, I really want to find something with a low temperature to hold it...

But no, I can only clean up the mat tomorrow qvq
