Working Prophet.

Chapter 251 You don't know anything about the power of Saturday

Seeing Tom and the other three Black Dog guards and the weapons on their waists, the peasant woman looked obviously a little scared, and said tremblingly, "My lords, our village has already handed over last month's tax money to the Popo family. .”

"We are not from the Arias family, nor are we here to collect taxes." Tom stretched out his right hand as he spoke, and rolled up his cuff, revealing the silicone bracelet on his wrist.

"I'm Jerry (Christian name) from the Black Iron Guard of the Shuangxiu Church. This is the Prophet Merlin. The three around him are my colleagues, and the last one is..."

"I'm Anton from Silvermoon Church. You are all followers of Picia, don't be afraid, I will protect you from heretics." Anton puffed out his chest.

"We didn't come here with any malice." Tom shrugged. "It's just that two Hughes are missing from our side. They came to your village yesterday to preach, but they never went back, and no one has seen them since. Have been to them, do you know what's going on?"

"I... I just married here not long ago, so I don't know." The peasant woman said.

Just as everyone was talking, the cry of a baby sounded again in the house. The peasant woman turned her head to look inside the house, and then looked at several people outside the house.

Li Yu said, "It's okay, you can go back and coax the children."

The peasant woman breathed a sigh of relief, thanked everyone, and then closed the door. After a while, a song came out of the house. It should be a local lullaby. Li Yu also heard Miss Rabbit humming it, but he forgot the name of the song.

On the contrary, Anton was a little taken aback when he heard the singing, but he didn't say anything.

As the singing sounded, the baby stopped crying.

After that, Tom changed another house, and this time the door was opened by an old man, about 70 to [-] years old, but he was much more enthusiastic than the previous woman.

After listening to Tom express his intention, he also invited six people into his room.

Besides him, there was his wife, an old cow and an old hen.

Because humans and animals live together, the smell is not very good.

But the old man's wife, an old lady who was a little deaf, was as enthusiastic as her man, and even took out the only half barrel of ale left at home, saying that she wanted to warm up Li Yu and others.

Tom refused several times, and he didn't know whether the old lady was too hospitable or a little deaf, and insisted on pouring wine for everyone.

Seeing that the hospitality was hard to come by, Tom could only take out a few silver coins from his body and put them on the table as money for wine.Then he brought up the old story again, "About yesterday, did you see two people, one fat and one thin, coming to your village?"

"Yes, I have the impression." The old man nodded and said, "They claim to be the emissaries of Saturday, wearing the same strange bracelets as you, and they say they want to invite us to build some land god kingdom together, but I told them that I I'm too old, I don't know how many more winters I can survive, I really don't have the strength to devote my allegiance to that great Saturday...

"I told them to ask the young people in the village, maybe someone would be willing to listen to their sermons, after all, young people always like those novelty things."

"No, you are still right. People should not betray their own beliefs no matter what." Anton said loudly, "Especially regarding the belief of Picia, as long as we believe in her wholeheartedly, then she will also Bless us! Guard us!"

The old man was a little surprised when he heard this, "Aren't you from the Shuangxiu Church?"

"No, I am the lingua franca teacher of the Arias family. I was sent here by the Silver Moon Church. We share the same belief!"

"Is that so..." There was a look of hesitation on the old man's face.

Tom didn't care to listen to Anton's nonsense here, and he didn't really understand why Li Yu brought such a guy who was obviously against them.

Tom interrupted their conversation while raising his glass, asking, "Where are those two now?"

He rode a horse all the way, his limbs were a little stiff from the cold, and he really needed a glass of wine to warm his body.

"They are in the east of the village, at the home of the Delmons." The old man said, "They have three children who insist on sticking to the two Lord Hughes and let them tell stories."

"Really, then let's go there now." Tom was overjoyed and was about to drink up the wine in his hand, but Li Yu held his shoulders and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, don't touch the wine indiscriminately." something here."

As soon as Li Yu's words fell, the old lady who was a little deaf suddenly took out a crossbow from the straw mat under the bed, and raised it tremblingly.

But before she could press the switch, a guard of the Black Dog Guard had already charged up, raised the knife in his hand, and chopped off the old woman's head with a single sword.

And Li Yu's voice just sounded at this time, "Don't kill people randomly."

But it was too late after he finished speaking, the human head rolled off the bed and rolled all the way to his feet.

Li Yu saw the hatred in the eyes of the pair who were dying.

Witnessing the tragic death of the old wife, the old man on the other side also rushed over, pulled out the knife from his waist, and stabbed Li Yu in the chest!

It's a pity that he is an ordinary person, and he is too slow for an ordinary person who is still old.

Before the other lizardmen fighters under his command could do anything, Tom rushed forward, kicked the dagger in the old man's hand, and then knocked him down, finally leaving him alive.

Anton was still in a daze at this time, and after a while, he asked Li Yu like a ghost, "You...how did you find out that they have problems?"

"Before we met the first family, the woman said that she had just married here, but when the baby in the house was crying, there was no one to comfort her, which meant that her man was not at home, but now it is so cold outside, who would Choose to go out at this time?"

"Uh, that's kind of weird."

"As for the second family, there are even more problems," Li Yu continued, "How could ordinary people prepare so many wine glasses in the house, as if they were waiting to entertain us, and from the time we entered the house , the old woman's expression was actually a bit unnatural, but pretending to be deaf was a very smart choice.

"But when she was pouring wine for you, I deliberately stomped my foot and knocked off the snow on the shoes. At that time, she obviously reacted and wanted to look at me, but she finally held back. But the biggest problem is, Or I found the young woman's clothes in this room, same problem with the first family, she's not here either."

Li Yu pointed to the skirt next to the straw mat, it really didn't look like the old lady would wear it.

After a pause, Li Yu said to Tom again, "I don't know why most people in the village are very hostile to us, and there may be other ambushes here, contact our staff outside and ask them to be vigilant."

"Contact, how to contact? They are still some distance away from us." Anton wondered.

Then he saw Tom take out a walkie-talkie from his pocket and waved it in front of his eyes, "You don't know anything about the power of Saturday."
