In the dilapidated church, a white-haired old man was praying to the sculpture of the true God. The oil lamp on the wall flickered on and off, as if it might go out at any time.
The temperature at night was very low, but the old man had been kneeling on the cold stone slab for several hours, but he didn't feel anything. He was Cardinal Green.
He always went to bed early and got up early. Today, he was uncharacteristically praying devoutly before the true God because he made a mistake and lost the gem on the scepter. This was not his fault, but he was a bishop. Whatever happened, He must be responsible for everything.
"Luohe Xiuwen, are you okay?"
Behind Ge Lin, there was another person kneeling on the ground with a respectful expression.
"Bishop, are we...really doing nothing?" Luohe Xiuwen didn't understand.
"What do you want to do?" Green asked.
"Catch them." Luohe Xiuwen said without thinking.
"What happens after you're arrested?" Ge Lin asked again.
"Interrogate to find out whether they stole the gems." Luohe Xiuwen answered.
"What if not?" Green asked.
"Why don't we just let them go?" Luohe Xiuwen said.
"When did they enter the city?" Green asked.
"During the day, around four o'clock in the afternoon." Luohe Xiuwen said.
"When was the gem stolen?" Green asked again.
"Bishop, maybe they stole the gems first and deliberately delayed their entry into the city. In fact, they had already entered the city." Luohe Xiuwen expressed his guess.
"Well, your guess is very reasonable, but have you ever thought about another question? Since they have stolen the gems without anyone noticing, why do they still want to enter the city? Wouldn't it be safer to leave directly?" Ge Lin asked.
"..." Luohe Xiuwen was speechless.
"That young man's strength is terrifying, and I may not be his opponent." Green said slowly. This was the main reason why he did not take any action.
Luohe Xiuwen's body shook, and his eyes shone with unbelievable light.
"The gems should have been stolen by someone from here." Ge Lin said another thing that shocked Luohe Xiuwen. Luohe Xiuwen cried out, "Did someone from someone else get involved?"
"Three days ago, I caught a trace of aura. It was very faint and disappeared in a flash. I wasn't sure at the time, so I didn't tell you. But now that I think about it, I am the one who came." There was a trace of regret in Ge Lin's voice, but he was still careless. After being at ease for too long, the awareness of crisis has declined. Otherwise, the gems would not have been stolen.
"Bishop, I'm sorry, but my subordinates neglected their duties and allowed someone to sneak in." Luohe Xiuwen was shocked and angry, his expression was both annoyed and angry.
"I haven't told anyone else about this matter. Don't make it public. You can investigate it secretly." Ge Lin said slowly.
"Yes!" Luohe Xiuwen finally understood the bishop's good intentions. He knew Liu Wei'an was a threat, but he couldn't move because he had to concentrate on dealing with it. Compared with Liu Wei'an, Liu Wei'an was nothing.
"You can let that young man's matter be handled over there." Green thought for a while and said.
"I understand the attributes!" Luohe Xiuwen resigned and left. The 'over there' in the bishop's mouth refers to the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion will not be too concerned about the theft of the 'gem', but Liu Wei'an, the City Lord's Mansion must be very interested.
The sky is brightening, the cold has faded, and the temperature has slowly risen. The early morning is very quiet, with puffs of white smoke rising into the sky. Some people have already started cooking and eating.
"The Mayans don't seem to raise chickens." Fang Xiaoyuan said suddenly.
"Yes!" Huang Yueyue reacted suddenly. No wonder she felt that something was missing when she woke up in the morning, the rooster was missing.
"I think he ate all the chicken." Liu Wei'an washed his face and became energetic. In the second half of the night, because he was worried about Luohe Xiuwen, he didn't sleep deeply. In addition, Huang Yueyue couldn't sleep. He would either kick the quilt or scratch with his hands, which made him not sleep well.
Huang Yueyue was supposed to go to the same room as Fang Xiaoyuan, but the little girl didn't want to and stayed in his room from the beginning, so he had to let her go.
The hot-blooded young man, sleeping with a pure and beautiful girl in his arms, could not sleep peacefully.
"Let's ask someone later." Fang Xiaoyuan said. The Mayans had made sufficient preparations. Although they were short of food, they were much better than the Han Dynasty. Poor people might indeed be able to kill chickens. Dogs, but many wealthy families still have surplus food, chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs should be able to keep it.
This city is even more special. Before the apocalypse, it was self-sufficient. After the apocalypse, there will still be problems with production and food. For some people, it is not a big problem.
"Want to make a bet?" Liu Wei'an suddenly became interested.
"What are you betting on?" Fang Xiaoyuan asked.
"Well... Yueyue, tell me." Liu Wei'an looked at Huang Yueyue.
"I...I don't know." Huang Yueyue shook her head.
"You will be a witness." Liu Wei'an said with a smile.
"The loser has to wash the feet of the winner." Huang Yueyue rolled her eyes and suddenly became interested.
"What kind of bet is this?" Liu Wei'an was stunned.
"Don't you have confidence in yourself?" Huang Yueyue asked.
"I just don't think it's good to let Xiaoyuan wash her feet." Liu Wei'an said, although Fang Xiaoyuan is her private property, Fang Xiaoyuan was a slave he bought in the slums, in theory, Fang Xiaoyuan is his property , he can dispose of it as he likes, not to mention foot washing, even if he sells her, she can't say no.
However, after Liu Wei'an bought Fang Xiaoyuan, he did not treat her as a slave. He always regarded her as a friend. Fang Xiaoyuan basically never did anything like a maid, such as serving tea and pouring water. Washing clothes and folding quilts are all missing.
"It's not certain who washes whose feet." Huang Yueyue thought of the scene of Liu Wei'an washing people's feet and suddenly looked forward to it.
"Okay, it's settled." Liu Wei'an didn't hesitate any longer.
I didn't go out to eat breakfast. The portion of breakfast in the hotel was too small. It was like feeding a cat. I started my own small stove and ate fuller. After breakfast, everyone gathered in Liu Wei'an's room, and the narrow room was packed to the brim.
"Three things. The first thing is about the pyramids. I will do this. The second thing is about food. Yang Wujiang will lead a team of people. The third thing is that there are many treasures. Get it back from me, Yan Shisan will lead the team, is there any problem?" The room was too crowded, so Liu Wei'an kept his story short.
"No!" everyone replied in unison.
"The meeting is dismissed!" Liu Wei'an waved his hand.
Yang Wujiang and Yan Shisan each left with a team of people, leaving only Liu Wei'an, Huang Yueyue, Fang Xiaoyuan, Elephant, Ice and Snow Goddess, Head Yang and Pig Intestine.
This combination was also carefully considered. The elephant has high combat power and is a big hand. The goddess of ice and snow has to protect Huang Yueyue and Fang Xiaoyuan. Head Yang is mature and prudent. Zhu Dachang is honest, hardworking and willing to do any dirty work. Dry.
Liu Wei'an's first stop was the largest church - the Holy Grace Church. As the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. To figure out the secret of converting zombies into energy, you must enter the pyramid.
However, as soon as they walked out of the hotel door, they were stopped by a pair of guards.
"Stop!" The guard's armor is black and consists of leather and iron armor. The leather is mainly used for connection, and the iron armor protects vital points. The advantage of this is that the defense is not reduced, but the weight is reduced and the flexibility is improved.
It can be seen that these armors are handmade and close to the body, and each guard looks mighty and domineering. Several pedestrians on the road quickly left the area.
Several guests in the hotel had no way to avoid it, so they could only lower their heads and pretend they couldn't see anything.
"Who are you, and why are you stopping us?" Liu Wei'an asked, staring at the leading young man. He was half a head taller than the other guards, and his eyes were as sharp as a knife.
"We are the city guards of the city lord's palace. My name is Diokinero. I am now questioning you as usual. I hope you will cooperate." The young man's voice gave people an oppressive voice.
"Of course, it is the obligation of every one of my subjects to cooperate with the inquiries from the City Lord's Mansion." Liu Wei'an turned a blind eye to the fierce looks of the guards, with a faint smile on his face.
"Where are you from?" Diokinyero's expression was stern. It couldn't be said to be ferocious, but it definitely couldn't be said to be humane law enforcement.
"." Liu Wei'an replied.
"What country are you from?" Dioquinello asked.
"The Han Dynasty." Liu Wei'an replied.
"Didn't you say you came from the Ancient City of the Moon?" Diokinello asked.
"My ancestral home is the Han Dynasty. Is there any conflict?" Liu Wei'an asked.
"What are you doing here?" Dioquinello asked.
"Doing business." Liu Wei'an said.
"What business?" Dioquinello asked.
"I heard that there is a huge demand for zombies, so I came here to try my luck." Liu Wei'an said.
"Who said that?" Dioquinello asked.
"Business travelers who come and go have told me, do you want to name the specific person?" Liu Wei'an asked.
"I'm asking you now, not you asking me." Diokinyello stared at Liu Wei'an with a serious tone.
Liu Wei'an shrugged.
"What did you do after you entered the city? Where did you go?" Dioquinello asked.
"After entering the city, I stayed at this hotel, ate, and slept." Liu Wei'an said.
"Did anything unusual happen during this period?" Diokinello asked.
"Does it count if the clergy comes to check the ward?" Liu Wei'an asked.
"What are you going to do now?" Diokinyero obviously knew what Luohe Xiuwen did last night, so it was not surprising.
"Walking around, after all, it's my first time in Blackwood City and I want to go to the church to pray." Liu Wei'an said.
Diokinello asked a few more questions, but couldn't get anything out of them, so he had to stop the interrogation. Before leaving, he left a message: "This is Blackwood City, not the Ancient Moon City. You'd better be honest and don't do anything like this." It is illegal and criminal, otherwise, I will arrest you personally and bring you to justice."
"Do I look like a bad guy?" Seeing Dioquinello leaving with his guards, Liu Wei'an felt very innocent. He just entered the city yesterday and did nothing. He was targeted by the two major forces, the church and the city lord's palace. .
