Old-time musicians

"I have experienced this friend of yours."

Certain scenes in his memory, people he had seen, words he had said were recalled, and Fan Ning suddenly said this out of nowhere.

"ah!

"

Luo Yin's eyes suddenly opened brighter than during the day's journey.

"Mr. Father, does he know the person I'm talking about? Have you ever dealt with him? Is he one of your collaborators? Mystical cooperation? Or cooperation in the field of art?"

She immediately felt something was wrong after asking a series of questions, and smiled sheepishly: "Sorry, just think that I only asked the first question."

"It was a revelation from the secret of lighting." Fan Ning immediately changed his words, pretending to be calm, "At the dinner party on the first day, Miss Luo Yin had big plans and was worried, so she sent me to ask for directions. That Gao Yin The light here indicates that you need to discuss with someone important, and it must be the person you are talking about right now." After saying this, he felt that he was doing well.

!

Father Lavoisier was indeed a miraculous man. Luo Yin was so admired that she fell to the ground, but she also became more and more embarrassed. She raised the collar of her white windbreaker, coughed slightly and said:

"Sorry, I took it for granted before."

It turned out that it was the day when I dropped the note on the "necessity of going to the Abnormal Zone" into the priest's altar that I realized that the subsequent occult connection was not really with Mr. Fan Ning. .

How can there be such a coincidence, or do we know exactly what he is like?

Then it's not called "divination", it's more like "plagiarism" or "peeping"

"However, I think this kind of general directional revelation also has more irreplaceable value. Can I ask, Mr. Father, what is the path for the secret of illumination to be revealed in the future?"

"Since we have to negotiate with important people, it naturally depends on the outcome of the negotiation." Fan Ning said bluntly and seriously.

"Oh" Luo Yin continued to curl his lips.

But my dad doesn’t allow me to go.

He doesn't allow it either.

Luo Yin always felt that Father Lavoisier knew a lot, and she wanted to continue to ask for advice, or like the people of Janus, do a "confession" to clear up some of her doubts, but Abnormal District and Fan Ning Two things that were inconvenient to discuss in detail came together. At the moment, people had too many eyesight, so they had to keep their thoughts in their hearts for the time being, and then see if there was a suitable occasion.

"There's no need to chase them away, we'll just take a detour."

Just at this time, the carriage was pulled to the side of the queue to buy food. The two deacons wanted to evacuate a little, but Luo Yin called out to stop them.

Everyone changed to another road and boarded the carriage again.

"Sincerely speaking, this small town really needs more music now." Old priest Duerke still raised his eyelids and looked at the people quarreling or working.

"Miss Luo Yin doesn't know that since the war started, believers will fill the auditorium and the square in front of the church during daily services, as long as there is a choir on stage, even if it is by the standards of our small church. , unable to receive gifts like the ones you brought to the Holy City that day, but the people think this is the most touching, peaceful and worry-free moment in their daily gloomy life."

"But unfortunately, due to various objective factors, the proportion of music performances we can organize during worship is now smaller than before. Moreover, the organist we hired has passed away due to the death of a relative in Apail. , he also has some mental problems."

"Are there no other recreational activities?" Luo Yin asked, leaning against the car window.

"If you are referring to the entertainment in the market," Duerke thought for a while, "some places such as taverns and private residences are still open, and some are still brightly lit, but for ordinary people who have no money to eat now, , How many people can afford to spend money there?”

"There are obviously fewer wandering street performers now. Maybe they are still somewhere, but they have lost their strength. In the past, there would be some soloists, singers, or small chamber music groups from Puntua County. When we do tours, our diocese will subsidize part of the remuneration so that people can buy tickets at cheaper prices. There are several shows every year. Now no one will come, and the venues we can host have also been bombed."

In this era, air weapons have just taken shape, but there is no systematic means of air control. Fan Ning, who returned to resting with his eyes closed, felt that he did have a headache - without considering the actions of powerful people at the level of the Insight, or the pre-arrangement of large-scale secret rituals, in many cases only aircraft can fight against aircraft.

But the airspace is so vast, instead of squatting or chasing enemy aircraft, it is better to go to other people's territory and bomb them.

Luo Yin also felt that the situation was a bit tricky.

Under the guidance of Mr. Fan Ning, the layout plan of the "theater chain" was completed and precise, taking into account the geographical environment, government policies, economic conditions, cultural differences, infrastructure, and uneven teaching standards.

However, no matter how perfect the plan is, it is not perfect enough to even take into account factors such as "smuggling and air raids"

"Mr. Priest, can your church withstand artillery fire?"

When she asked this question, she was not only asking about churches, but also about art venues.

The other party shook his head: "Miss Luo Yin is too confident in it. Facing these subversive modern weapons, in addition to the Holy City headquarters blessed by the 'Glow Wheel' being able to remain intact, those county cathedrals may also have to be blown up." Holes, not to mention churches in small towns like ours. Unlike us who have knowledge, they are small enough and can be evaded by some means after spiritual warning. "

"But these guys don't dare."

Durk's smile was full of vicissitudes of life, but also a bit calm.

"If the church was attacked first, or they took the initiative to attack the clergy, it means that the agreement that 'the knowledgeable shall not serve and shall not directly participate in secular wars' has lost its effectiveness in this incident, and the safety of the military leaders of the attacking party , but there is no guarantee.”

"Although even the Enlightenment Ones cannot run rampant unscrupulously on large-scale battlefields, military operations always require layers of organizers. On weekdays, those leaders are just people who follow daily routines and have relatively tight armed guards. Ordinary people, there is no guarantee that they will learn any strange knowledge, have any strange thoughts or hallucinations, or dream of some indescribable scenes or things."

"We will also restrain Janus's army and strictly prohibit attacks on the churches or priests of the Lingyin Discipline Society."

"Of course, the Lydians dare not attack churches or clergy, but there are not so many restrictions on other facilities. If there is a steam milling machine factory in the rear that is a military target, they will not consider whether there is a steam milling machine factory next to it. Regarding the issue of schools or concert halls, Ms. Luo Yin’s personal suggestion for choosing the location of this theater chain is to rely on the church, demarcate functional areas and build them adjacent to each other - I am not speaking for the lowland Laubken diocese that has not yet determined its quota, but for this If you want to build a hospital in this area, it’s best to do this.”

Luo Yin nodded.

This is a relatively reliable choice.

The army assembled in the industrial age can crush the vast majority of knowledgeable people head-on. However, if the official organization's venue is destroyed and the knowledgeable people assassinate their military leaders, it does not necessarily have to be done head-on, and it does not have to be during war.

It can be regarded as a game rule of checks and balances at the secular level formed with the acquiescence of the heads of government.

"There are blind spots." Fan Ning suddenly said.

"Please enlighten me." Durk didn't know what "blind spot" he was referring to.

Seeing that Father Lavoisier had something to teach him, the others also acted as if they were all ears.

"Soldiers abandon those dark and shameful things, do not practice deceit, and do not speak falsely of God's doctrine. This naturally looks good. But if the army colludes with harmful heretics and bears the scars of treachery, , to obscure her gospel, disrupt her prestige, make people in various cities jealous of each other, and not respect the covenant made with God. How should we judge this?"

It's a problem. The old priest was stunned for a moment.

Yes, the official government has knowledgeable people who follow the rules, and the normal military also follows the rules.

What should I do if the secret organization doesn’t talk about it?

If a few esoteric cultists sneak into the armies of the two warring parties and muddy the waters, it will not even be possible to tell for a while who is the mastermind, who provides convenience, and who is being used.

Luo Yinzheng nodded in agreement. Suddenly, she was very inspired and felt that the night sky above her head seemed to be a little brighter than before.

Everyone suddenly raised their heads.

"That is?"

The dark clouds were split by some pale beams of light, and the rumbling noise of the air gradually appeared from far to near.

In less than five seconds——

"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"

Shrill sirens sounded from all directions, and the small amount of electrical energy in the entire town was consumed by desperate operation!

"Air strike! Air strike!

! "

The people and soldiers were already "familiar" with this siren, and reflexively threw away what they were doing, and began to evacuate, evacuate, and hide in groups.

Several accompanying municipal officials and civilian assistants were a little dumbfounded.

There are two Insighters and two high-ranking people around me, so I don't have to worry about my own safety. But why are there bombers coming to "visit" today at night, when the water is misty and it may rain heavily at any time?

What facility is this going to blow up?

Within a few seconds of everyone raising their heads, nine bombers that looked like dragonflies in the night sky, one in front and two in back, formed a small group, and another in front and two behind formed a large group, passing directly overhead from an altitude of less than a thousand meters. !

Which direction? Impossible! Old priest Duerke couldn't help but take a step forward, ran a few steps in the direction of the plane passing by, and then stopped suddenly.

It’s impossible to say what you say! ?

About 4 kilometers further in a straight line to the east is the location of the church where everyone was more than an hour ago!
