I Am A Priest In The Otherworld
Chapter 284: .Family Creed
Gallo took the equally quaint and old-looking diary from the old lady collector, flipped through it, and said embarrassingly:
"Um... I actually don't understand ancient language..."
The collector showed a look of astonishment at first, probably subconsciously treating Gallo as a liar, but soon recovered his calmness. After thinking for a while, he asked:
"How did your Excellency understand the previous content, please translate it?"
In recent years, there are not many people who can speak ancient languages, and the asking price is certainly not low. It is a lot of expense to specially ask a person to translate a diary without beginning and end, and the content of the diary is not exciting, and it is intermittent. .
Under this premise, he would come to find himself under the name ‘Gallo’, not like a liar.
This made the collector a little more patient and asked about the details.
And Gallo also sincerely told the truth:
"I read this diary in a special way, um... this way is quite special, it is difficult for me to describe it in words, you can understand me that I witnessed the history with my own eyes."
The collector was dubious, frowned, and asked:
"Then you pretend to have witnessed history with your own eyes. Can you tell me something about that period? Like people's clothes, architectural styles, and details of daily behavior."
Gallo nodded, probably describing the customs of that era. Victor and the others have traveled a lot of places along the way. Even if they use fast forward, there are always some pauses, which is enough for Gallo to get a taste of it. That era.
After listening to his description, the collector couldn’t help being surprised. The details of the other party’s mouth were basically the same as the conclusions drawn from many years of research in the archaeological community, even more detailed and clearer, and gave some controversial issues An accurate answer came out.
These are all things that are not in the diary. If it is not for the senior academic ability in archaeology, a diary alone will definitely not be able to tell these things.
Therefore, the attitude of the collector eased in an instant, no matter if the other party is the so-called "Gallo" or whether the other party has witnessed that era with his own eyes as he said, it is worthy of his understanding of that era. Have a good discussion, let him look at the diary naturally no problem.
The collectors still believed the other side’s statement. Although it sounds incredible, there are too many incredible things in this world. Otherwise, it is impossible to explain why a young man who can’t even speak ancient Chinese has such a clear understanding of that era. To understanding.
So she looked a little excited again, and asked slightly trembling:
"Then you...really that adult?"
Gallo showed a helpless wry smile and reiterated:
"This... sorry, it's really hard for me to answer, or I don't know how to answer..."
"Actually, I came to visit, in fact, to find this answer."
"So it's better to lend me this diary for a while. I want to read it in that special way."
The collector didn't actually understand his explanation, but he didn't directly refuse his request. Instead, he asked carefully:
"Then can you please describe his appearance?"
She seemed very curious, but this was actually a very excessive request. If someone from another sect heard this kind of thing, they would definitely have to reprimand him without saying a knife.
Because ask someone to describe the appearance of an angel, which is equivalent to a mortal looking directly at the angel, and still as an unbeliever?
Although the city of Innocence has been visited by angels three times, and all of them have been visited by the citizens of the city, the situation is different. It can be regarded as looking up, or even peeping, which is essentially different from looking directly.
Therefore, after the collector said this sentence, he immediately realized that his words were inappropriate, and quickly changed his words:
"Sorry, I overstepped."
Gallo didn't mind this, but first asked:
"Can you tell me what is the relationship between you and the Bishop Victor in the diary?"
The collector smiled and straightened his waist at once. His temperament changed from a scholar who lived in simplicity to a nobleman, and he replied in a very glorious posture:
"He is the ancestor of our family, the starting point of our glory and mission! I inherited Victor's glorious surname from him!"
Gallo was taken aback for a moment, and asked:
"You are... the lord's... mom?"
The collector was stunned for a moment, and then explained dubiously:
"No, I'm his sister..."
She then explained to Gallo the current situation of herself and her family.
To put it simply, the Victor family is no longer the country nobles who had been in peace and devoted themselves to governance. The family has become a very large nobleman and has obtained the honorable title of hereditary marquis.
Some changes have inevitably occurred in the family. Members like the city lord are no longer proud of the Bishop Victor of the year. They have not even understood their family history, but probably know that their family has been passed down from a long, long time ago. , Can be called a long history, usually bragging and pretending to be forced.
This is also the prevailing situation within the Victor family today. They worship the Jeff Victor who established the City of Innocence, and they have no knowledge of the old Victor and the old and old.
This is actually no way. Before the Victor family really flourished, they seemed to have gone through a rather difficult time, becoming obscure mortals. This is obviously a period of time and a ‘dark history’ that should be sealed by history.
That is to say, Mrs. Victor was interested in history and became a historian and antique collector, only to find out the black history from the family history and understand the glory of the family nearly a thousand years ago.
At the same time, I also know what the family creed Jeff Victor and the old Victor are going to stick to.
Fortunately, today's Victor family has not forgotten all the ancestral instructions. They still adhere to some of these tenets, such as guarding the city, such as not joining any sect.
These two most critical creeds have been adhered to.
Of course, this may be because these creeds do not fundamentally conflict with their interests, so they can always stick to it, right?
After listening to Mrs. Victor's narration silently, Gallo thought for a while, and then asked:
"Then you, what are you insisting on? Why have you persisted for so many years?"
Mrs. Victor smiled and replied:
"The answers to these questions are in this diary."
"You read it in that special way and you will know the answer."
She had actually agreed to Gallo's request with a hint, and she was willing to borrow him to take the diary back to read it slowly.
Gallo understood the meaning, nodded, and asked a detailed question:
"If it's important family history, why should it be sent to the Chamber of Commerce for sale?"
He personally finds it difficult to understand this approach. How can such an important thing be sold only for future generations?
If someone dared to sell the books in the underground library of his home, he would definitely use the eighth-order divine art he just learned to help that servant reform.
Mrs. Victor smiled bitterly and replied helplessly:
"Actually, my son did it. When I learned about it, the diary was sold."
"He yearned for the days of other brothers and sisters, and was aggrieved at my control, so he would do such a shameful thing."
"He hasn't learned ancient Chinese and doesn't know what it is. He just saw that I kept it very carefully, so he mistakenly thought it was a valuable antique, so he sold it for pocket money..."
"I also recently discovered that his expenses have suddenly increased, only to realize this...I can't help but please forgive me..."
Without her going on, Gallo could probably guess something.
This Mrs. Victor is obviously the kind of traditional and conservative woman, and after reading the diary of her ancestors, she intends to follow her ancestral instructions, just like Jeff Victor did.
However, Gallo saw from his memories that Bishop Victor himself was a very frugal person. He was extremely pious and didn't need any extravagant entertainment. He probably made similar demands to future generations.
Such a requirement was placed on Jeff Victor before his fortune, and he would naturally comply with it well, but today, it does seem unreasonable.
It's reasonable to make such a farce in the end.
Gallo naturally wouldn't say much about other people's housework, but just nodded, planning to leave and go back to read the diary as soon as possible.
But before he left, he didn't forget Mrs. Victor's request, so he used that kind of disguise magic to create visual effects, and put on himself a bit, cos behaved like that angel.
In fact, according to the theory of divine art, this is something that cannot be done at all. Disguising angels is not as simple as disguising Amia as a donkey. No matter how powerful disguising divine art, it is impossible to go beyond it. Pretending to be an angel.
Not only divine arts, but even magic and sorcery are not good. This involves personal issues and cannot be compensated by skills.
So no one in this world can pretend to be gods and angels, except those actors in the theater who play cosplay with props.
This is a piece of common sense and an important foundation for the prosperity of sects in the world.
Although Mrs. Victor doesn’t understand magic, she knows common sense, so when she saw Gallo’s wings and a halo emerging from behind, she wore the crying and laughing visor on her face, and a large unicorn appeared on her head. At that time, she knelt down on the ground uncontrollably and worshipped.
The gods cannot pretend, and the only ones who can ‘disguise’ are themselves.
Although Bishop Victor looked directly at the angel, he did not dare to describe the angel's appearance in his diary. It was a disrespectful act of blasphemy. He could only briefly mention a few words from the indescribable aspects of temperament and breath.
However, Mrs. Victor firmly believes in her heart that the angel who has allowed the ancestors to pursue and believe in for nearly a thousand years, and let the family adhere to the faith to this day, should be like this.
Not only the imitation on the outside, but even the temperament, breath, and faint fluctuations on the body should be like this.
Even the young man who came to visit suddenly did not admit it, but Mrs. Victor had believed everything in front of her.
She couldn't help trembling slightly, tears welling up in her eyes.
When Gallo saw that the lady who was still calm before, her expression suddenly changed, she was also a little nervous. He quickly contacted the magic arts, and by the way changed the sect back to normal, and then tried to help her up.
But Mrs. Victor remained silent, knelt on the ground and backed away, not daring to let Gallo touch her, she even pressed her forehead against the floor, not even daring to lift her head.
Gallo suddenly felt a little at a loss. This was something he had never met before, and he didn't know what to say.
In fact, not only did he not know, but also the angel in the memory...
Thinking about it in the future, if everyone treats him like this, it is really a depressing thing to think about.
I dare not hold hands with him, so I worshipped when meeting.
Youlan didn't dare to look up at him anymore, and worshipped when they met.
Lilian Luo didn't dare to rub him, so she worshipped when they met.
The captain didn't dare to stretch himself in front of him, and worshipped when he met.
This is not depressed, it can be said to be desperate...
Gallo further understood the angel's mood at that time.
And the two consciousnesses of confrontation in the brain have further merged silently.
So he suddenly changed his tone and tone, and said loudly:
"Get up, you guys are doing well."
These words sounded majestic and noble, as if a noble being was giving orders.
Gallo had never spoken like this before. He had always followed the low-key doctrine during the day, and it was not like he wanted to say or would say it.
But Gallo did not cover his mouth. This time, he realized that his symptoms had changed a little.
Although I can realize this kind of language that is obviously not in line with the human setting, my heart is not so resistant.
Probably because he understood the angel's thoughts better, and was also moved by the Victor family's persistence.
He felt that the other party was qualified to stand up and look directly at him.
I don’t know if this kind of change is regarded as symptom relief, but it is not a bad thing anyway. It is much better than unknowingly speaking nonsense.
After hesitating for a long time, Mrs. Victor still obeyed his instructions and slowly stood up from the ground.
After all, she is not a true believer, she just abides by the creed handed down by her ancestors. The fear of angels is based on the diary description, so it is not a type that is difficult to communicate.
Gallo also breathed a sigh of relief, the situation was not too bad.
Mrs. Victor then carefully asked whether he could join Gallo's current sect.
Naturally, there is no problem. The sister of the city lord, from a noble family, is also a senior collector and has a deep historical connection with him. Who would refuse such a believer?

I have been annoying during the past two days, and the update time is a bit confusing. I'm very sorry, and I hope everyone can understand.
