The blue sky is dotted with white clouds, the spring breeze caresses human cheeks with the smell of trees, and beside the clear river flowing briskly, white geese bow their heads to eat grass, and a girl in a gray and white cloth skirt holds a long stick, keeping a close eye on them.
The girl's face was bathed in golden sunlight, revealing a faint fluff, her long soft brown hair was wrapped in a white cloth on top, and her delicate facial features revealed a youthful vitality that could not be concealed.
She looked at Lumian sitting on the ground under the tree by the river, frowned slightly, and said:
"Isn't it to discuss which legend is easier to investigate?
"How did it become a stone statue carved on top of the church?"
This girl is Ava, the daughter of shoemaker Guillaume. Lizier is one of the younger generations in the village who have a good relationship with Lumian and Raymond.
"I'm thinking of a question." Lumian didn't raise his head, still staring at the white geese and water waves.
"What's the problem?" Raymond who helped Ava take care of the geese. Clegg spoke curiously.
Lumian said as if thinking:
"If you encounter a beast with thick skin, your weapon can't damage it, how will you deal with it?"
"Of course, we have to find a way to escape, there are so many beasts in the mountains, we don't necessarily have to hunt them." Ava didn't think there was anything to be embarrassed about.
Lumian said "Hmm":
"What if that beast is particularly rare and the old men in the city like it and are willing to pay a hundred golden louies to buy its body?"
"One hundred golden Louis, two thousand Felkin ......" Raymond's breath became heavy.
He had never seen Jin Louis or used it, so he instinctively changed it to Felkin first.
With such a sum of money, he can go to Dalliege to start a small business, so what else can he learn to herd?
He thought quickly:
"Looking for someone to borrow a shotgun?"
"I can't pierce the skin of that beast." Lumian directly denied.
Although she knew that the prey was in her imagination and it was impossible to exchange for so much money, Ava couldn't help but join the discussion:
"Is it powerful or fierce?"
Lumian thought for a moment and said:
"It's about the same as me."
This is one of the reasons why he didn't give up.
"That's okay." Raymond breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, "Go back to the village and gather a group of people, surround it, consume its physical strength, and finally knock it down and tie it up."
He knew that Lumian could fight, but he knew that was it.
"In this case, you can only get ten golden Louises, or even less." Lumian reminded.
"I've seen them hunt, maybe we can dig a trap so that the beast can't come up......" Ava's blue eyes turned slightly, recalling as he said.
"This is a way." Lumian nodded in agreement.
Knowing that Ava and Raymond had limited knowledge and could not have more proposals, he pulled the topic back on track:
"Which legend do you think is suitable for the next goal?"
"None of them are suitable." Ava shook her head, "Those things were either hundreds of years ago, or only one person saw them, and that person was already dead."
Raymond echoed Ava:
"Yes."
"If you don't ask the relevant people, how do you know that there are no clues?" Lumian smiled and said, "You guys, you don't have perseverance in doing things, and you want to give up when you encounter difficulties, so you can only be a goose shepherd and a shepherd for the rest of your life."
These words made Ava and Raymond both feel a wave of anger rise from their hearts.
In terms of provoking people's anger, Lumian is definitely the top person in Cordu Village.
Ava blurted out:
"I don't think it's suitable because there is a more suitable one."
"What is it?" Lumian's eyes lit up.
Ava regretted it a little as soon as she finished speaking, but she herself planned to talk about the corresponding matter, but she didn't want to tell Lumian and Raymond so easily.
After a few seconds of silence, she glared at Lumian:
"There are real witches in the village."
"Who?" Lumi felt relieved.
You can't say Aurora, right?
If even Ava knew that Aurore was a wizard, then he and Aurore would have to quickly escape from the village of Kordu and live elsewhere to avoid being "visited" by the Inquisition.
Ava subconsciously looked left and right, lowered her voice and said:
"Mrs. Puaris."
The magistrate's wife, the mistress of the parishioner, Madame Puaris? Lumian was a little unconvinced:
"Is it really fake?"
If Pualis is really a witch, then how could he not notice when he found out that this lady was having an affair with the priest of the parish?
"No, right?" Raymond was extremely surprised.
Ava stood on tiptoe and looked in the direction of the entrance of the village:
"I'm not sure, it was the administrator's male servant Charlie who once leaked his mouth and told me.
"He said that Mrs. Pualis is a messenger of spirits who can talk to the souls of the dead and help them return home, and he also said that Mrs. Pualis can make secret medicines and charms."
After listening carefully, Lumian was still not sure whether this was true or false.
In the case that magazines such as "Psychic", "Lotus", and "The Hidden Veil" can be officially published, it is not too strange that the administrator's wife knows some terminology and knows how to behave, fooling the servants and villagers.
"Shall we go to church to snitch? This can get a lot of rewards, right?" Raymond was frightened and expectant.
Lumian thought for a few seconds and said:
"The administrator's male servants all know that Madame Pualis is a witch, so the administrator himself should know too, right?"
"Yes." Ava gave a positive answer.
Lumian continued:
"Madame Pualis is also the mistress of the priest of this parish, and if we go to the church to inform, I am afraid that we will be sent directly to the administrator's house."
"What?"
"Madame Pualis is the mistress of the priest of this parish?"
Ava and Raymond were both shocked.
"I saw it with my own eyes." Lumian laughed, "You pretend not to know about this matter and don't tell anyone, otherwise I'm afraid you will disappear one day."
Ava and Raymond agreed at the same time, their expressions extremely solemn.
They were all very afraid of the priest in the parish, and this matter also involved a witch.
"If we can really be sure that Madame Pualis is a witch, we will find an opportunity to go to d'Ariège and tell the bishop at the time of the Great Mass." Lumian comforted the two of them.
"Hmm." Raymond nodded vigorously.
This must be confirmed before reporting, otherwise they will end up investigating Mrs. Pualis and there is nothing wrong with it.
After exchanging these things, Lumian, who was unwilling to delay time, stood up and said to Ava and Raymond:
"I'm going back to school, otherwise Aurore will chase me with a wooden stick.
"You two herd geese well."
"Okay." Thinking that in the next period of time, only himself and Ava would be left here, Raymond was excited.
Ava was a little unhappy.
…………
After approaching Kordu Village, Lumian began to hide his whereabouts, always paying attention to whether there was anyone nearby.
He was worried that the priests in the parish would not let him go and were still waiting for an opportunity.
According to his observation, the parish priest Guillaume. Bene is a very persevering person, and he will inevitably retaliate after suffering losses.
Hiding in the hiding room, Lumian marched in the direction of the old tavern.
Suddenly, he heard a clanging sound.
Lumian turned his head and saw that in the fork in the road on the left, three foreigners, Ryan, Lia, and Valentee, were walking towards Naroka and the others who were catching lice with each other.
The crisp and pleasant jingle sound came from the four small silver bells on Lia's veil and boots.
They have been wandering around the village for the past two days, chatting with someone, asking this and that, and not knowing what they want to do...... Lumian was a little confused and a little wary.
I thought of a village square where there was no one in the sky before, and I thought of Pierre, the shepherd who came back from afar to attend Lent. Berry, he had some bad feelings and felt strange.
What will happen in the village? Lumian decided to wait and tell Aurore about the situation, and let the knowledgeable, knowledgeable, and wise sister judge.
Soon, he successfully entered the old tavern and saw the woman who gave him tarot cards sitting in the corner, eating.
Lumian leaned over and glanced over:
"Fatty meat and fried eggs?
"Isn't it too boring?"
In the Dariège region, this dish is the first choice for ordinary people to entertain distinguished guests, but Lumian feels that it can be greasy and greasy for women from big cities.
The lady took a soothing bite of the golden egg, closed her eyes and felt it for a while:
"It's very good, it has local characteristics, and it's very fragrant."
"Lunch so early?" Lumian sat opposite.
The lady's light blue eyes were a little tired, and she said with a smile:
"This is breakfast."
What time is this...... Lumian didn't dare to say this.
He looked around the old tavern with few customers and lowered his voice:
"I saw a ruin in my dream and met a monster."
"Oh." The lady was not surprised at all, and there was even a bit of Lumian's incomprehensible playfulness in her expression.
Lumian calmed down, told the story of his experience, and finally said:
"How should we deal with this kind of monster?"
The lady smiled and asked rhetorically:
"Is it dead or alive?"
"It must be alive, I can't kill it......" Lumian stopped subconsciously answering.
He thought seriously for a while, then slowed down and said:
"I can feel its breathing, it should be alive."
"Since it is alive, then try more, cut off its head this time, pour oil on it and burn it directly next time, and bury it alive next time, maybe it will die?" While enjoying her breakfast, the lady casually suggested, "Come to me after so many different methods still don't work, I am not your nanny, I will help you with every little thing, you must learn to find a way yourself."
It's quite friendly...... Lumian was not disappointed or frustrated at all, because the other party seemed to mean that if she really encountered a particularly big danger and came to her again, she would provide some help, and now this kind of monster is really not worth mentioning.
But her lack of mention is a real big trouble for me...... Lumian then had a headache again.
He decided to do as the woman said, and first try to see if methods such as beheading, burning, and burying him alive were useful.
