Lord Yunzhong in Douluo

Chapter 322 Confessions of "The Shepherd"
In the early morning, the sky was slightly bright, inside the tailor shop of "My Beloved".

"Um……"

With a low moan, at the counter table, the boss raised his head from his elbows, shaking his somewhat drowsy brain, frowning and looking at the environment he was in, and then looked down at the man who was suffering from long-term oppression. His skin became a little rosy, and a puzzled look appeared on his face.

"Why...did I fall asleep in the store? Yesterday...what happened? Why do I feel so tired...and it seems...someone came to the store...and then I passed out?"

Frowning tightly, the county magistrate's sister-in-law tried hard to recall what happened yesterday, but she couldn't recall anything.

Thinking of a possibility, the boss's expression changed, and he immediately groped for his pocket with both hands. After groping as usual, he took out a key before letting out a sigh of relief, and then hurried to a few corners deep in the shop. At the secret counter, insert the key into the lock and open the door.

Inside the cabinet door were several bags full of soul coin bags and a few thick stacks of soul coin bills, but the boss didn't stop his eyes on them, but reached into the side wall of the cabinet and groped for a while. , and then press a small square that can be pressed.

"Crack."

There was a slight sound, as if some lock had been opened, but nothing changed in the cabinet.

The boss stood up, moved the carpet in front of the cabinet and pressed one hand on a tile on the floor, and that tile was easily opened by her!
And what is unexpected is that there is a small hidden compartment under this floor tile, and this floor tile is actually a secret space with a lock!

"Whoo~"

Taking out the ledger, the boss looked through it for a while and heaved a sigh of relief when he found that the ledger hadn't been lost.

It was a good luck not to get rid of this thing, otherwise their family would suffer.

But if it wasn't for this ledger, why would he be stunned?

Or is it just that I am too tired these days, dreaming that I am in a coma?

Looking at the key in his hand, the boss touched other places and pockets on his body, and there was nothing missing!

Put the ledger back and lock it again, and check the situation in the store for the last time. After finding that there was no shortage of clothes, money and other items, the boss could only think that he was too tired these days and fell asleep in the store last night.

After all, it is really a labor-intensive task for her to accept a large number of accounts and process dividends these days.

"Sure enough, I should give myself a vacation and go to the city to buy a set of jewelry..."

……

In the Crow County Church, a man dressed as a priest is holding a scripture in his hand and is praying facing the statue in the church.

The first sun shines into the church from the glass above the side of the church, trying to sprinkle the sun into this supposedly sacred place, and also illuminate the man's back.

The warm sunlight shone on the black priest's clothes, making people's backs quite warm.

But when the sun shone into the church, the man didn't turn his head to feel the sun, but still turned his back to the light and lowered his head to pray to the god statue still in the shadow.

"God's grace covers the world. The Lord's shepherd guards the confused lamb, guides it, and avoids the bite of wolves in the deep. The shepherd needs to give everything for this, and God will also give attention and blessing to his piety .”

After Slade finished the last prayer, he opened his closed eyes, looked up at the idol with drooping eyelids that seemed to be watching him, but was still in the shadows, and stood up. .

The sun shone on his back, shining bright spots on his black priest's robe, but he was facing the shadow. Faces in the shadows.

As a great soul master, many people don't understand why he voluntarily applied to be a priest of a church in such a small remote county town. Wouldn't it be good to be a deacon in the main city or a big city?Not only will the salary be more lucrative, but the living environment and convenience will be much better.

But what do they know?

In the main city, I am just an ordinary deacon, not lacking, and I don't have much power and status, but here, I am the only priest of the church, the only spokesperson for the will of the Spirit Hall!
What's more, because of the current pope, the Wuhundian's supervision of each member is much stricter than before. As a member of the Wuhundian, they are strictly controlled in the city. If any illegal behavior is found, then But they will be severely punished within the organization.

You can't get any money, and you don't receive any substantive material rewards other than being respected and a monthly salary, and the monthly salary of Wuhundian is the lowest among all major organizations.

This kind of life is not what Shi Lade wants. He worked hard to become a soul master and joined the Wuhun Palace not to accept all kinds of controls, even his own property must be monitored.

What he wants is to live like a superior person.

Therefore, he voluntarily applied to come to this remote mountainous county that no one wants to come to.

Here, there is no control and supervision, he can do whatever he wants, and the place is remote, and the bishop and deacon in the main city are unwilling to spend most of the day to come here, so as long as no one comes to the city to report, then relying on him The strength of the great soul master, he is the only shepherd here, and all the residents here are the confused lambs who should be guided by him.

The shepherd guides and protects the lamb, but the lamb is also the food of the shepherd.

Therefore, as a shepherd, it is right for him to ask for it from the lost lambs.

After coming here, he found that it was really a good place to be locked up, as he thought, and there were his kind.

The county magistrate here.

Being in the same category, they immediately knew what they needed and wanted, and they immediately cooperated.

The county government came to be responsible for searching and controlling, and he was responsible for driving the lost lambs that the dogs could not drive back to their sheepfolds.

Originally, Slade was worried that if he and others did this, the main city would be noticed. Although the people from Wuhundian were unwilling to come here to monitor his situation, this is still the territory of the Principality of Barak after all. Shouldn't you never visit the people under your command?

But maybe it's because the magistrate of Crow County has given gifts to the main city for so many years, or maybe he overestimated the integrity of Barak's bureaucrats. Over the years, the bureaucrats in the city have never been here once!

Perhaps, this can also be regarded as the blessing of the gods. It seems that even the gods have approved of his shepherd's behavior of "eating the lamb and plucking the hair" from the lamb.

Slade, who has studied neurology in Crow County for many years, has become more and more at ease with his actions. He is the spokesperson of the will of the gods here, and he is a person under the protection of the gods. All his actions and thoughts are God's will.

"Clap!"

Just as Slade was arranging his clean black priest's robe with his back to the sun, the door of the church was directly pushed open.

Sunlight quickly poured into the church through the opened door, and it also immediately illuminated the dim statue that was still in the shadows just now. The originally bright white statue shone brightly under the light.

And this sudden light made Shi Lade close his eyes subconsciously, and raised his right hand to cover his face, as if he didn't want the sudden light to shine on his face.

"You are Father Slade of this church?"
