Elf brother as my tool man

Chapter 32 This world cannot treat good people badly

After leaving Dongguan, the terrain suddenly increases. The entire Upper Sevier Highlands is basically composed of a central plateau with crisscrossed ravines, and many narrow and rugged valleys heading to the west and east.The longest of these canyons are obviously the Hiyo River Canyon and the Sevier River Canyon, of which Breeze Valley is a part.These canyons are often human settlements, and few people live on uninhabitable highlands.The archbishopric of Castle Rock is almost entirely located on the highlands, covering the entire drainage basin of the Rock River, a tributary of the Hiyo River from north to south.As far as the eye can see, three castles are lined up in sequence.Upstream of the three castles, near the source of the Rock River, is the core of the area, Castle Rock Cathedral.If you walk along the east-west main road in the Seville area, if you want to go to Castle Rock Cathedral, you must pass through the territories of all three castles after passing the East Pass.This means that four bishops and three female judges must obtain permission from the lords of three baronies or viscounties when going to the church.Of course, Qiao Chenxi directly skipped this step by flying.It is now twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, the world has completely darkened, and Castle Rock Cathedral is the only place in this area that is not completely extinguished.Qiao Chenxi felt relieved when she saw the light still shining on the cathedral.This is a church that was built three centuries ago. On the front of the three-section structure, two towering spiers stand in a symmetrical angle.The patterns and statues all over the church's exterior walls look quite beautiful and moving under the light.In Elvish there are three words for "church".The Levi's Church in Le Bon and the four churches in Breeze Valley are generally only called "churches", while magnificent buildings such as St. Guiseli's Cathedral and Castle Rock Cathedral are called " Cathedral".Of course, further up there is the "Cathedral", which is located in the Holy See and is unique because its owner is the Pope himself.The cathedral itself was often the center of an episcopal fief and the heart of a residential neighborhood.Clergy make up a large part of the population, while church guards and devout believers make up the other small part.In order not to disturb them who were already sleeping, Qiao Chenxi flew directly above the church before landing quietly.The door of the church opened, as if someone had just arrived, and the sound of carols drifted out of the door leisurely. "It seems they have all arrived." Following the light, Qiao Chenxi walked into the church. The Bishop of Castle Rock, dressed in yellow, sat on the podium, praying with his eyes closed, and there were many devout people in the audience. Devotees followed him in prayer.Even after midnight, the choir members were still singing carols.Even in such a large church, the priests can work in two shifts, but their efforts really moved the believers.Among the believers praying, Qiao Chenxi's three friends were among them.The smiling Qiao Chenxi did not disturb the others. She found a seat close to her three friends and quietly sat down to pray with them.No one seemed to notice her. Qiao Chenxi meditated for a long time while the carols were singing, "Aurora, may the Holy Light protect you." The carols gradually came to an end. The archbishop held a small cross in his right hand and walked slowly to Qiao Chenxi. "May the Holy Light protect you, Lord Bishop." Qiao Chenxi made the sign of the cross on her chest. "I've heard everything about you, child." The Archbishop's age cannot be determined from his face, but judging from his prestige, he should be no less than 45 years old. "I appreciate your integrity." "Your Majesty, Bishop, That's a compliment." Qiao Chenxi said slowly, "Why did you trust us so much when Cardinal Mejia called us the Blood Priests?" "No matter how hot the sun is, there will be shadows, so because of the shadows To deny the brilliance of the sun because of its existence, and to question the justice of the sun because you are in the shadow is obviously not a smart move." The archbishop did not answer directly, but gave an example. "I don't quite understand. Bishop, can you help me clarify my doubts?" The bishop shook his head and smiled. "My child, you are still too young. When you have experienced enough things, you will naturally be favored by the wisdom of the Holy Light like them." In the direction pointed by the bishop, four bishops of Breeze Valley were dressed in priest's uniforms. Sitting in the first row of the church, he kept praying. "Bishop, are you willing to trust us only after seeing their wisdom?" Qiao Chenxi raised her head and stared into the archbishop's eyes. "Not everyone is born wise." The bishop still did not directly answer Qiao Chenxi's question. He turned his back and returned to the pulpit. "My Lord Bishop." Qiao Chenxi caught up, "I, as the leader of the St. John's Judgment Team, am willing to follow you." "Oh" the Archbishop turned his head and smiled, "Aurora, you are a member of the Tribunal. "Master Bishop, the shadow that cannot be illuminated by the sun is not always dark, because the light can illuminate it. Even if the brightness of the light is not enough, then light a blazing fire. The light of the fire is enough to illuminate everything in the darkness." "The archbishop put away his smiling expression and looked at Qiao Chenxi in surprise and seriousness. "My partners and I may not be able to become that raging fire, but please allow us to be a small flame in the shadow." The archbishop and Qiao Chenxi stood at the podium one after another. Ahead, there was silence for a long time.However, the silence did not last long. The Archbishop nodded slightly, then turned around and stepped onto the podium. "Master Bishop, please think about it carefully." After saying this, Qiao Chenxi sat next to the three members of the trial team, Xiaofang, Meixin and Xiaoya. The three of them looked at Qiao Chenxi's expression. Full of expectations. "I'm sorry for my wrong decision-making in Breeze Valley, Xiaofang, Meixin, and Xiaoya. I beg for your forgiveness." Qiao Chenxi apologized to them sincerely. "You have nothing to apologize for." Xiaofang replied bluntly, "You did nothing wrong. We can't do it just because we may not have the ability yet." "Sister Chenxi, I will always support you." Meixin Nodding, "There are still some interesting stories to tell from Elorin City to here. When we have time, we can chat." "If the bad guys are defeated so easily, then they don't deserve to be called bad guys. "Xiaoya comforted Qiao Chenxi in a playful way that only belonged to her.The choir's chanting began again, and the breath of holiness lingered in the cathedral.Although it is already midnight, a cathedral like Castle Rock still does not close its doors to believers. "This world cannot treat good people badly." Qiao Chenxi prayed silently.
