Chapter 23 Arrival (page 12)
"Leah, let's go!"
"Okay, Sister Meili, I'll be right away." Leah hurriedly packed up the things in the room and quickly went downstairs.
Today is the day when the Holy Church moves to the city of Corona. Early in the morning, the clergymen packed their bags and loaded the equipment and equipment to be taken to the big city. The central road of Huayu Town was full of people. A mule and a carriage.
Some of the people around were helping the priests carry things or cleaning up the excrement of animals. Everything was so happy and orderly.
"Ertai, if you go to a big city, you have to take care of yourself. These are the eggs laid by the old hen at home. Grandma has brought them to you. If you have nothing to do, eat more!"
"Hey! Grandma, I know. When I come back this time, I will definitely become a high-level knight!" Ertai, who was carrying large bags and small bags, said with a smile while holding a basket.
"Well! Grandma believes in you. Our Ertai is the most promising! Grandma has always been optimistic about you!" The rickety old man said kindly as he packed the clothes for his grandson before he left.
"Grandma, you must take care of yourself at home!" Ertai said worriedly, looking at his elderly grandma.
"Don't worry! Your father is still here. He has been through the hard times in the past, not to mention that now there is Holy Light and the Holy Church is here!"
"Ertai, let's go!"
"Grandma, goodbye!" After saying this, Ertai looked back at her grandma, rode the Holy Light Wolf, and followed his companions to gather with the large army!
"May the Holy Light protect my grandson's safety!" the old man prayed sincerely!
"Yui, Huayu Town will be left to you from now on!"
"Don't worry! Sister Lia, I will work hard to handle the affairs of Huayu Town!" Yui said confidently.
"Well, sister believes in you! If anything happens, just discuss it with your brother Liqi!" Leah said with a smile.
"Well, I understand, sister, but I feel a little bit reluctant to leave Sister Lia!" Yui said a little sadly.
"The brief separation is to get together better in the future." Leah reached out and touched Yui, who had grown a lot taller.
"Yeah! I understand, Sister Leah!"
As everyone said goodbye to their families, the large troops followed Leah's order and embarked on a new journey.
In Corona City, at noon, the sky was still covered with light rain. The paladins were neatly divided into two rows on both sides of the road to form a human wall. Everyone held their heads high and prepared to welcome Archbishop Leia into the city.
Aping stood on the tower and looked into the distance from time to time. He had been waiting on the tower since the cleric came to report in the morning that the large army began to move towards Corona City today.
Seeing the group leader walking around in front of him, Mrs. Xiong couldn't help but joked, "Ah, our group leader misses my sister again!" After saying that, he touched Shi Shu with his arm!
Shi Shuqiang pretended to be calm, but when he saw Mrs. Xiong’s funny look, he couldn’t hold back and laughed!
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Seeing the two team members teasing him like this, A Ping blushed with embarrassment and couldn't help but said, "Okay, you two boys can now laugh at your captain!" After finishing speaking, A Ping slapped the two of them one by one. on the helmet!
Mrs. Xiong quickly adjusted her helmet and continued with a bit of a mean smile, "The leader actually hit someone. This is abuse of his subordinates. Bishop Leah will come later and I will sue you! You think so!" Stone tree.”
"Mrs. Xiong, please don't get involved with me. I'm a loyal little fan of the leader! But if you really want to go, I can't stop you." Shi Shu backed away while holding back his laughter while shaking his hands.
A Ping looked at Mrs. Xiong, who was still mean, and was so angry, "Mrs. Xiong, don't think I don't know that you often peek at the pastor team, Mu Ze Nazi, be careful that my brother is not happy that day, so he ran to tell her that a certain The idiot has a crush on her!"
"Don't do it, captain, my good brother!" Mrs. Xiong screamed immediately. "Aren't I tired from watching the leader walking around? I wanted to make a little joke to make the leader happy."
"Oh! It turns out that our bear likes a flower in the priest group too much! You said, if you don't treat your brother to a meal, I'm afraid this matter can't be sealed!" Shi Shu looked at the nervous bear with a slight smile. too.
Mrs. Xiong looked helplessly at the two smiling people. She originally just wanted to tease the group leader, but ended up sinking herself into it and spreading her hands, "Okay! Tell me what you want to eat!"
"Of course it's barbecue and juice, it's a perfect match!" Shi Shu answered first.
A Ping thought for a while and felt that what Shi Shu said made sense, and nodded accordingly!
"Okay then!" Xiong Tai replied feebly. It seemed that he was going to bleed again this time.
"Commander, look, that's it, that's the big army coming!" The priest on duty shouted loudly from the tower!
The three of them immediately returned to their serious appearance, and Aping shouted, "All paladins follow me out of the city to meet the troops!"
The tall city gate was slowly lifted up by equipment, and the repaired city bridge was slowly lowered. Aping rushed out of the city gate at the lead, followed closely by the Holy Knights.
"Lia, that's Aping and the others." Meili pointed to the front and said softly to Lia.
"Yeah! I saw it! Time flies so fast! In a blink of an eye, Aping is already the commander of a legion!" Leah said happily.
This is not achieved by relying on Leah's relationship. In the clergy team, strength and ability speak for themselves! Thinking of Aping, he usually gets up before dawn to exercise hard and learn the knowledge in the Holy Light Knowledge Base. He never puts it down for a moment, and his belief in the Holy Light is even more unwavering!
"Yes, this kid works hard enough, and the Holy Light will not let down those who work hard!" Meili responded with a smile.
"Lia, Big Lia...Bishop, the First Regiment of the Holy Light is coming to meet you!" He originally wanted to call the eldest sister as usual, but in order to maintain his sister's dignity in a formal occasion, Aping immediately changed his words.
"Captain Aping, please maintain order in the team and enter the city together."
"Yes!"
Aping waved his hand, and the paladins behind him quickly separated into two columns, and neatly escorted the large troops into the city.
At this time, the people in the city looked at the endless team, dragging long supplies, neatly equipped, and moving in an orderly manner. Except for the grinding sound of wheels and the occasional calls of livestock, the entire team marched in silence. The priests were all surprised.
"Yahiko, is this the organization that has invaded the city in recent days and believes in the evil god?" Konan asked in surprise.
Yahiko nodded silently, "Nagato, what do you think?"
"This is not an ordinary believer of an evil god! I have been yearning for what their missionaries have said these days." Nagato said calmly.
"But Mr. Jiraiya said that the world will become peaceful only when people understand each other, and their... maybe I don't understand it for the time being!" Yahiko said uncertainly.
"Let's see again! If something goes wrong, we will leave the city as soon as possible and go to the Rain Ninja Village!" Nagato hesitated.
"Yeah!" Yahiko and Konan nodded at the same time.
"Sister, you've had a hard journey!" Aping looked at Leah, whom he hadn't seen for a few days, and smiled.
