215 Oracle’s Redemption
Power has a magical power that can make people crazy and crazy. For the sake of power, many people will kill their fathers and mothers, not to mention younger brothers and sisters who have no deep feelings for each other.
Katie left the eldest prince's manor and came to the hidden forest on the roadside. Then she took out an oil-paper bag from the cracks in the gravel, changed out of her black clothes, and put on the ordinary linen clothes in the oil-paper bag. Then she messed up her hair and made it into a side braid.
As soon as she did this, her cold, arrogant and seductive temperament immediately disappeared, and she turned into a gentle and pleasant Xiaojiabiyu.
She walked to the main avenue, walked slowly to the city center, passed through the bustling urban area, and turned into a slum area.
She walked in an alleyway that smelled slightly of excrement. Many people around her looked at her with leering eyes, but even more people greeted her in a friendly way.
Katie is beautiful and has a good figure. In this ghetto, she is the most dazzling flower. Many people are interested in her, whether with good intentions or bad intentions.
She was walking around in the alley, and some men came close to them with the intention of taking advantage of them, but she dodged them without leaving a trace. As an agility professional, if she can't deal with a few ordinary people, then she really doesn't have to stay in the assassin world.
After walking in the alley for about a few minutes, she stopped for a moment in front of a small mud brick house, then bent down and got inside.
The room was a little dark, filled with an unpleasant smell of herbs. An old woman with gray hair was lying on the bed. The wrinkles on her face were like the surface of a lake ruffled by the breeze. Most importantly, she His complexion was ugly, copper-colored. Only people who have been sick for a long time would have such an ugly complexion.
Katie came to the old woman's side, looked at her carefully, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Then she started sweeping the floor, boiling water, and cooking. More than an hour had passed since she finished this round of work. By the time she had finished the two pieces of wax meat, she was opening the pot. The old woman on the bed woke up.
She coughed, then rolled her dull gray eyes, and then turned slightly sideways, seeing the familiar figure busy at work, she smiled and said: "Katy. When did you come."
As a professional, Katie naturally knew that her mother had woken up a long time ago. She turned around and said with a smile: "It's been a while. Mother, are you feeling better?"
"It's still the same." The old woman sat up and coughed: "Father Jiedo comes to treat me every day. He is such a good man. It would be great if you could marry him."
"Mother, we are people from two worlds." Katie put down her work and went over to hold the old woman's hand with both hands. Said: "I have prepared the food now, let's come and eat together."
The old woman sighed deeply. With Katie's help, she sat down at an old table and watched her daughter prepare food for her. She watched her beautiful daughter in this small, dark room. Spending her youth in the house, she felt that it would be best if she died.
But she understood better that if she died inexplicably, Katie would probably go crazy. The mother and daughter have been dependent on each other since childhood, and their family relationship has become so deep that it is difficult for others to understand.
The two of them were eating white bread and some honey, which was pretty good in the slums. Just when they were about to finish eating, a young man walked in from outside. Wearing the white robe of the Temple of Life, although he is not handsome, the look between his eyebrows gives people a gentle look.
When the old woman saw the young man, her cloudy eyes immediately lit up, and she stood up in a hurry. Said: "Your Excellency Jie Duo, come here, come here, Katie is here, she has made a lot of delicious things, you can come and try it too."
The young man glanced at Katie, nodded in greeting, then walked to the old woman's side and said with a smile: "Aunt Polly, how are you feeling today?"
"It's still the same." Katie's mother Polly sighed: "That is to say, I felt better after the two days you treated me. The rest of the time, my whole body was limp and I had no appetite. I always wanted to eat greasy things. Vomit. Look”
Katie gently held the old man's hand: "Mom, don't worry, you will be fine."
Old Man Polly nodded.
The young pastor stood aside, watching the affectionate scene between mother and son, and just smiled slightly.
The priest waited for the two to finish talking about their feelings, and then used disease-repelling magic on the old man Polly. Katie stood aside quietly and watched.
The young pastor stayed in the room for a long time, and by the time he stopped, he was already covered in sweat.
Polly was full of gratitude and looked at the pastor as if she were looking at her son-in-law.
Jie Duo wiped his sweat, smiled honestly, and then said: "Auntie, I have to go. I have to take charge of some affairs at the church."
"Okay, I'm going to trouble you again this time." Polly looked hard at her daughter Katie, and then said: "Oh, I'll let Katie send you off. Our place is dirty. If Katie takes you out, it will save you a lot of trouble. .”
In fact, as a priest, generally speaking, no one in the slums dares to cause trouble for Jie Duo. Katie nodded at this time and said gently: "Okay, mother, please wait here for a moment, I will go."
Then Kati and Jiedo left the low room under the encouraging eyes of their mother, and then the two of them walked around in the slums. Many people saw Kati and Jiedo together, and they were either aware or jealous. They thought that Katie was ready to climb a high branch and leave the slum sooner or later.
For ordinary people, the most important thing is that their destiny can be changed.
The two quickly walked to a secluded place and stood there.
Katie's gentle smile changed and suddenly became indifferent. She took out six gold coins, handed them over, and said, "This is the monthly fee, please trouble you."
Jie Duo took the gold coin, then he looked around and said: "Actually, I don't understand something. You are also a professional. In fact, with your ability, as long as you give up your mother, you can live a better life." As far as I know, she is not your biological mother."
"This is my business and has nothing to do with you." Katie's expression changed from indifferent to slightly murderous.
Feeling the real murderous intent, Jie Duo was not afraid. He said with a bit of ridicule: "A person who is dedicated to assassination actually understands family affection?"
Katie's hands were already on her waist, her pale pink lips were slightly raised, and some murderous intent was revealed: "If I don't understand, do you understand?"
Jie Duo ignored her murderous intention and just said slowly: "It doesn't matter whether you understand or not. I just want to tell you that your mother's illness can only last three months at most. This is the limit of my ability."
Katie's body trembled, her face turned pale, and her thin lips trembled slightly: "It's not a problem that you're cheating me of money. I can continue to make money, so please be more careful."
Jieduo waved his hand and interrupted Kati's words. He said mockingly: "I want to explain one more thing. There is a strange life energy source in your mother's body. This energy source grows together with her flesh and blood. It is itself There is a part of her body that cannot be removed using magic alone.”
"Is there any other way?"
Jie Duo looked at Katie and felt that she was very pitiful: "There is no way, at least I have no way. If you don't believe it, you can ask a more powerful priest than me, but many times they are not willing to do anything for an old woman. And they are ordinary old ladies who treat illnesses, and their clients are usually dignitaries. What’s more, I don’t think anyone can break this strange curse.”
Katie held her right hand tightly, her eyes a little weak. She couldn't accept this fact: "Why do you suddenly feel that you can't hold on?"
"My ability is limited." Jie Duo put away the six gold coins in his hand, and then continued: "I will treat your mother for another month. After one month, I will stop. I will no longer accept your commission."
Katie gritted her teeth: "In one month, I will get you ten gold coins."
Jie Duo shook his head: "It's not about money. It's because I really don't have the ability. If I can't cure it by then, to be precise, I'm afraid. If I can't suppress your mother's illness, let her do it, and then accept your treatment." Qian, you will probably go crazy and kill me. Although it is not easy for you to kill me, I don’t want to provoke an enemy in vain. "
After Jie Duo finished speaking, he left lonely. In fact, he liked this woman quite a lot, but he also knew that all the feelings of this woman were placed on her mother. As long as her mother did not recover for one day, she would There will never be any talk about relationships between men and women.
Jie Duo persisted for three years but he really couldn't stand it anymore. Although Katie is indeed beautiful enough and has enough strength, this is not an excuse worth wasting his time.
He, Jie Duo, is one of the candidate bishops of the Temple of Life. As long as he is willing and waves his hand, a lot of women with similar looks to Kati will rush towards him. Just thinking about this makes him feel happy, but he doesn't know. Why, I felt vaguely in my heart that such a woman was boring. Compared with Katie, she was too boring.
The conflicted Jieduo left, and Katie seemed to feel that all the strength in her body had been sucked away.
She took out the last two gold coins on her body and looked at them carefully. As a professional, she could earn a lot of money. It was not difficult to earn about ten gold coins a month, but now the money was of no use at all. No amount of money could buy her mother's life.
She took a few steps back, almost losing her balance and the gold coin fell to the ground. Her tears also fell, hitting the gold coins little by little.
I am willing to trade my life's luck and freedom for my mother's health and longevity.
Katie stood in front of the gold coins, hugging her knees and crying.
Liang Lidong, who was thousands of miles away, suddenly raised his head, because at that moment, he heard the divine message coming from Goddess Wojin:
Go and help me redeem a woman and let her become the fangs and blades of our divine religion. (To be continued.)
When the ground comes down and the clouds come down, come to the pavilion and you can get the view.】
