At dusk, there was a knock on the doors of the Little Stone Village church.

A moment later, Father York in black robe walked to the door. In the shadow outside the door, there was a man wearing a flat-brimmed hat and a black one-piece long gown. He had seen many of them in this way, and most of them had done some dishonorable things. He came here to pray for God's forgiveness.

At this time, the man spoke, and the content was in line with York's judgment.

"Dear Father, I'm sorry to disturb you so late. The sin in my heart has never ceased, and I can only come to you to confess."

"Haha, it's okay, Light God Always, and so are the servants of God." Father York opened the door and said gently.

The man nodded, expressed his gratitude, reached out and lowered the brim of his hat, and entered the church sideways.

"Okay, we can start." York Road entered the confession booth and sat down.

The so-called confession booth is actually a place similar to a sedan chair, with a window opened at the direct place to communicate with the outside world. The windows are separated from the outside by a layer of black cloth, which is also to protect the privacy of believers.

"Father, I am guilty!"

"Everyone in this world is guilty, but as long as they repent with sincerity, God will forgive them."

Exactly The old-fashioned dialogue without any new ideas, Father York mechanically said the words that he would repeat dozens of times a day, and his mind was a little distracted. He was thinking about the sound before, did he hear it wrong? Still a mouse got into the dark passage.

"So...then Father, are you also guilty?"

"Uh, of course, I repent every day that I can't spread the grace of God better." York replied Very grand.

The man outside snorted a little harder... What, are you ashamed in comparison? York thought to himself.

"But I want to sin now, and I can't control myself."

"Then pray sincerely and ask God to give you the strength to control yourself. "

The man outside was silent for a while: "But I still want to know, if I do sin, will God forgive me?"

"If you truly repent , God will surely forgive you"

"Hoo...Praise God!" The man outside seemed to be relaxed.

"Praise God." York stood up, well, finally dismissed the confessor of this unfathomable mystery. Should I go to rest first, or continue with the exciting thing just now? Well, let's go and train those two fillies again, that's a wonderful feeling.

"Father."

"What?" The York figure, who was reminiscing about the wonderful taste, was replied.

"Thank you for the bread."

"What..."

pu!

The man who came to confession black long coat As soon as it moved, a crossbow that had shot arrows protruded from the hem. Then fast arrow up, launch, up arrow, launch...

Pop, pop, pop.

The thin wooden board and black gauze of the confession booth were quickly penetrated and torn by the crossbow arrow. For a while, the sawdust flew and groaned constantly.

"Drink...drink...call..."

After several crossbow arrows were fired, the man gasped heavily and looked very nervous. He pushed the brim of his hat and wiped the sweat off his forehead. With a pair of long and narrow eyes, it was Tang En.

Tang En picked up the crossbow and opened the confession booth. York's eyes were round, his upper body was covered in blood, and the fatal wound was in the heart that both of his hands covered, where the big hole took his life.

"My sins, God will forgive. I wonder if your 'Boss' will forgive your sins..."

…………

About three kilometers east of Little Stone Village.

A team of Knights equipped with holy armor is slowly advancing. The reason why they are said to be advancing slowly is not to say that their mounts are not good. On the contrary, the horses they sit on are of pure breed and abnormal dive steed. . Slowing them down was a fancy carriage in the middle of the line.

The small window on the side of the carriage was suddenly opened from the inside, and a wrinkled but healthy old face appeared. Knight, who was waiting beside the carriage, quickly leaned over.

"Bernie, how long does it take to arrive?"

The Knight did not dare to neglect, and said respectfully, "Lord Sethman, we will arrive at Little Stone in about a quarter of an hour. Village Church."

"Well, this damn broken road, I hope it doesn't break my carriage."

Bernie looked at the fast-moving carriage speechlessly and said: " Rest assured, Lord Sethman, your carriage is unscathed." Heck, with a speed like this, there's a hell of a lot of damage.

"That's good!" Sethman in the carriage was obviously relaxed, and continued: "Tell me about the Little Stone Village church briefly."

"Okay, Sethman Sir," Knight, known as Bernie, seemed to have done a lot of homework and said, "Little Stone Village Church, with nearly a thousand believers, is managed by Low Rank Cleric York, responsible for Little Stone Village and the surrounding four These five farms are a Knight's Fiefdom."

"Five farms, nearly a thousand believers...well, this York is also a talent."

Bernie After expressing his agreement, he said, "York also applied for a promotion to his superiors last month and is currently being assessed. Lord Sethman, do you want to..."

"Let's take a look first, if he is a smart person , just get promoted. Bernie, remind me when I get to the entrance of the village, I need to rest again. Alas, I am old, and my spirit can't keep up."

Bernie quickly said: "I wrote it down. Lord Sethman has worked hard all the way, please take care of your body." Are you old? It was those two nuns who tossed you last night...

Sethman naturally couldn't hear the tsukkomi in Bernie's heart. Satisfied, he closed the carriage window. At this moment,

clang, clang, clang...

"Hey, this is the church bell sound?" Sethman said in surprise.

This place is in the south of the empire and doesn't need the alarm bells that the northern frontier towns do. Usually there is a melodious bell sound, which is undoubtedly the bell sound of the church.

"Well, it should be. The direction of the sound should be Little Stone Village."

Sethman said angrily: "What the hell is York doing, how can the bell ring at this time? ?"

The bell sound of the church is naturally not a random knock for no reason, generally only in the weekly prayer meeting, or major religious celebrations, such as the descent of the gods and the like. ring.

Bernie spread her hands, saying she didn't understand either.

"Speed up and see what's going on!"

…………

Just as Sethman and the others were puzzled, the villagers of Little Stone Village were also surprised looking at the church in the village.

Most of them are believers of Light Church, and naturally they know the meaning of church bell sound. At this time, the bell was ringing, but they had never heard it.

Clang, clang, clang...

The stubborn bell sound kept ringing.

The villagers looked at each other in dismay, put down their things and walked towards the church.

Little Stone Village is small, and the villagers are closer, but only a few steps to the door of the church.

At this moment, the bell sound also stopped suddenly.

"Father York...Father York!"

The first person to arrive at the church door was a country woman. She stood on the door of the church and shouted to the inside, but she didn't shout twice, and with a light hand, the hidden church door was pushed open.

The first thing that caught her eye was the church bell, which was empty.

"Who's playing a prank?"

"Father York..." she whispered, walking towards the church's Bishop Hall, where everyone knows York's room Just behind the Bishop Hall.

The door of the Bishop hall was also unlocked, and was pushed open with a creak.

"Hey, Father York, what are you doing sitting on the ground?" At this time, it was already dark, and the Bishop hall was naturally darker. However, the country women still saw a silhouette with her head down and her back against the host, facing the door.

The silhouette didn't answer, and seemed to be looking at something on the ground intently.

Those country women with some big nerves didn't notice anything strange, and took a few steps forward to talk to Father York...

Ah——

A terrified pinnacle scream came out, and some villagers who had just arrived at the church heard a shivered.

At the entrance of the Bishop hall, country women fell to the ground and pointed forward with trembling fingers: "Joy, York...the priest is dead...dead."

"What?" Everyone turned pale in fright, looked towards inside.

After a while, the lights in the Bishop hall were lit.

Father York in black robes was leaning against the podium, blood was slowly flowing from the transparent holes in his chest, the holy Light God pendant on his chest had been dyed red, and there was a spread on the ground. Blood on the beach.

"Father York!"

"God, how could this be! Wu wu..."

"Who smashed it? I want it right away Hang him!"

"Hey, there are things on the ground, and writing..."

Seeing York's tragic death, the villagers were completely angry. It should be said that York's performance in Little Stone Village was really perfect. He successfully left a pious and kind impression on the villagers. Now such a good man was brutally killed like this, and everyone couldn't help but be angry.

The crowd was furious and kept cursing the murderer. At this time, there were also attentive people who saw the things beside York's hand and the blood-stained writing.

"Hey, this is a key."

"Is that the name of the murderer?"

"Look at it if you can read it!" shouted some impatient villagers.

"Get out of the way, I'll come." A bearded farmer squeezed in and recognized: "Well, the truth is written in the back room."

"The back Father York's bedroom..."

"Is that the murderer still there?"

"Let's go, leave a few to look at York's body, the rest are all Go catch the murderer."

The crowd swarmed to York's bedroom with all kinds of guys at hand.

When they pushed open the door to York's bedroom, it was empty, but they found the removed bookcase and a dark passage behind the wall.

Hey, why is there a secret passage in Father York's room?

The suspicious villagers looked at each other in dismay, and boldly walked down the secret passage, and soon found the two girls who were brutally abused.

"Hey, old John, isn't this your granddaughter? Wasn't she sent to the monastery for cultivation by Father York?"

"This, looks like Mary from the neighboring village? A few days ago, I saw her parents."

"Yeah, but didn't she say she was recommended by Father York to become a nun in Federation? Why is she here?"

…………

Those two girls were stupid when they saw such a large number of villagers coming in. After they reacted, they rushed towards the crowd with a big cry, crying about their experiences.

When everyone returned to the Bishop hall again and saw York's body, they all looked complicated.

The two girls cried out that they were about to come up and bite York's body. The two were tortured by York for a long time, and they were so surprised and overjoyed that they whimpered a few times and fainted.

For a while, the Bishop hall became extremely silent.

They didn't expect that York, who normally treats people with kindness, is secretly so dirty and despicable, willing to help others. And York is also the priest of Light God, a servant of God who often preaches the gospel and persuades people to do good. Their faith collapsed. For a while, I didn't know what to say.

At this time, an old man walked out of the crowd. They were all people from the village who looked up and not looked down, and everyone knew that this was Old John. Ever since he heard his granddaughter's cry in the dark passage, he has been stunned.

Old John walked in front of York's body and watched silently. Suddenly, a mouthful of thick phlegm spit into York's face. Then, amid the exclamations of the crowd, he fell to the sky.

The crowd was in chaos again. Fortunately, someone saw that he was abnormal and stepped forward to support his body.

At this time, another burst of hurried footsteps came, and a young villager who had not been there before exclaimed happily: "Master Sethman Patrolling Envoy has arrived at the entrance of the village, everyone go to meet..." Seeing everyone All looked at him with strange eyes, his tone became weaker and weaker, and finally shut up.

"What's the situation..."
