The Dean Has Arrived Chapter 595: The Pale World (Part 1)
The weather has been getting hotter recently. Many people in Brunei have changed into short shirts, and those high priests have already put on silk priests' gowns.
Naya still wears winter long clothes and a big beret on her head.
She hid in the corner of a small alley, Liáo opened her bangs wet with sweat on her face, sneaked her head out and looked at the busy street.
"The tithe collected this time is a bit low."
Even though they are wearing priests' coats, how do they look like two young men who look like Liu Máng while weighing the moneybags in their hands, while no one else said: "If this is the case, it's not easy for the brothers to take the cards. "
"It is said that there was a fertile field outside the city that was about to be harvested suddenly collapsed and turned into a sinkhole, so the tax collected is so small." The slightly fatter one shook the fat on his face dissatisfied. He told his companions what he had heard from other people.
"There is no way, go to those guys in the slum area to scrape some copper out. Although there is not much oil and water, it is better than nothing."
The tall and thin man smacked his lips uncomfortably, and stuffed the not full money bag into his clothes.
"I heard that Bishop Greini is already investigating those who impose exorbitant taxes on those untouchables, I think it should stop a little bit..."
The slightly fat man hesitated: "After all, from the beginning, the church stipulated that those untouchables who are poor to a certain degree do not need to pay taxes."
"Bah, what are you afraid of, those muddy grass roots (Brunei's swear word, describing a lowly origin), is there still that courage to report me how uncle Lena is?" The thin tall man sipped disdainfully: "If you don't go, Lao Tzu will go alone, but you don't want the money!"
"Who can't say it!" The fat man shook the fat, and hummed like a pig: "I just kindly remind you!"
The salary of the Necessary Evil Church is not much. Although it is enough for the life of ordinary people, it is not enough for them who enter the Necessary Evil Church through relationships and profligate, so they have to think about ways to get it. money.
Just as the two of them were about to advance to the ghetto, a thin and dirty figure suddenly collided with Gao Thin and fell to the ground.
"Little devil, don't you walk with eyes long!"
The tall and thin guy saw that the silk dress on his body was stained with a lot of soil, and he kicked the figure fiercely, and the figure did not dare to resist, and fell to the ground without much sound.
"It's really unlucky."
Spitting at the dirty kid, the tall and thin man and the gloating fat man moved on.
He didn't take a few steps, but as if suddenly thinking of something, he moved his arms into his arms, his face changed, and he suddenly turned to look at it. However, the figure that had fallen on the ground was long gone: "Damn it. Muddy grassroots! He stole my money!"
He gritted his teeth and immediately chased him with the fat man.
Although the opponent moves more flexibly, but after all, he is small and has short legs. Although tall and thin and fat people look like five-body inattentiveness, they are actually pretty good as poppi rogues, so it didn’t take long for the two of them. Just blocked the little man.
"Smelly brat dare to steal things from my uncle! Looking for death!"
The tall and thin man yelled, kicking towards the short figure with a hideous expression on his face.
At this moment, the short man suddenly took out a silver pocket watch with extremely exquisite workmanship from his arms, and pressed the button on the pocket watch with a very quick motion.
So the world stopped.
Except for the short man...or Naiya, the whole world, including the tall and thin man who was still in mid-air making a kicking motion, stopped, and lost their color, the original vibrant text Laicheng suddenly became a world dominated by black, white and gray.
Naya straightened the beret on her head that was too big and covered nearly half of her head, and then ran to the tall and thin one, while hanging in the air, he pushed and pulled, and just got the fat guy. In front of him, as long as this flying kick continues, it is estimated that the fat man will be kicked far away.
After all this was done, the girl smiled and sneaked into the alley next to it.
Stagnation time. This is the effect of the soul that she holds.
It's just that this incomparable ability has many flaws. Among them, the most unacceptable thing is the time when time is stagnant.
At first, time stagnated for only a minute or so, which made her feel very convenient. Many things that had to risk her life were suddenly very simple.
This must be a gift from the gods.
The girl at the time thought so.
However, as the number of uses increases, the time of stagnation becomes longer and longer-at first glance this may seem like a good thing, but it is not the case.
In a world where everything is in a static state, staying alone for a long time is probably the most lonely thing to experience.
No one can talk, food and water will become extremely hard, even opening a door takes a lot of effort.
So the later, the less the girl wants to use this soul tool.
Crossing the familiar alley, walking through the porch, and desperately pushing open the old wooden door that could not be blocked by the wind, but at the moment it was as heavy as a stone gate, the expression on the girl's face suddenly softened.
In the dilapidated thatched house, several children who were as dirty as her, and much younger than her were doing what they could do.
Put the money bag in his arms on the table, and the originally soft money bag suddenly became as hard as a stone.
I randomly found a haystack and sat down. The girl put her cheeks in her hands and looked at the orphans she had adopted with soft eyes.
"Last time was suspended for a year... This time it will take at least a year and a half..."
Although I won’t be hungry, how can I resolve this boring feeling?
That’s why I don’t want to use this thing...
The girl sighed, holding her cheek, the expression on her face was gradually replaced by blankness.
The more she uses the soul equipment, the more she finds that she can’t do without this treasure. In fact, after discovering that the people of the Necessary Evil Church seem to be searching for her, the feeling of anxiety in the girl’s heart becomes even greater It's serious.
She is just an ordinary little thief~IndoMTL.com~In the face of the behemoth of the Church of Necessary Evil, the only way to protect herself is to eat the clock of time.
The more I don’t want to use it, the more I have to use it.
Perhaps one or two years of this kind of loneliness can survive on its own, but what will happen if it continues like this?
One hundred years, two hundred years...Can you guarantee that your thinking will not be swallowed up by time and loneliness at that time?
This must be the devil's bait.
Unfortunately, it seems it is too late to understand this.
Just when the girl felt sorry for herself, a sudden voice scared her to death.
"Although I just guessed it casually...but it really is the clock of time..." rs! . (To be continued)
