Not even a clearing in sight.

"Calm down, everyone, Master Neos must have his own reasons." Martha comforted everyone.

"For the camp, I just found a good location, dry and open, there is also a water source nearby, and the view is also good." Nios said.

"Oh, so Master Neos, you were looking for this just now!" Mirtha looked surprised and turned to look at everyone.

"Ah, you can say whatever you want, anyway, I'm not the one who wants the treasure." Aya waved her hand, expressing that she let it go.

Nero pursed his lips, fell silent, bent down slightly, and rubbed his calf.

Neos glanced at her, and said again: "Besides, with the current situation, we have to choose to camp and rest on the spot."

Nero was startled, and the corner of his mouth curled up.

I cursed in my heart, this is so boring...

"Why?" Romanio asked subconsciously.

Neos sighed, "Because it's going to rain."

Nero's smile disappeared instantly.

......

The heavy rain was pouring, and the water hit the branches and leaves like a tide.

A water curtain fell from the entrance of the cave, and the howling wind blew the raindrops in, making the cave extremely humid.

A cluster of bonfires illuminated the walls of the cave, and huge figures were projected on the stone walls, reflecting warmth back.

In this kind of uninhabited deep forest, fire is the most secure existence.

"call......"

Romagno let out a long sigh of relief, sat down while stretching, and put his palms on the bonfire to bake: "Fortunately, I hid in time and didn't get caught in the rain."

Aya let out a "hmm", squatting and staring at the flames in a daze.

Behind them, in the corner of the cave, Nero had already laid out the mat and went to bed early.

She is really tired today.

Romanio glanced at the entrance of the cave, where Neos was kneeling and listening to the rain, his whole body was wet, but he still let the wind and rain hit his gray robe.

He said with emotion: "This man, he really saw a ghost. He said it will rain when it rains."

Words filled with disbelief.

"And didn't he follow us all the time? How did he know there was a cave here?" Romagno shook his head.

"I don't know, maybe he is really like a god." Aya said.

"But will God really be with us?" Romagno said.

"I don't know, at least every time I prayed before, it never worked." Aya said softly, with a slight complaint in her tone.

hole.

There was a sound beside him, and Neos opened his eyes.

The blue-haired girl had already come to him and handed him a piece of bread.

"Thank you, I'm not hungry." Neos shook his head and refused.

Mirta let out an "oh" and sat down on the spot, staring blankly at the rain with Neos, stuffing the bread into her mouth.

The bread was dry and hard, hard to swallow, so the girl always failed to swallow the first bite, and the second had already been delivered to her mouth.

The cheeks became more and more bulging, and finally looked like a puffer fish.

Neos couldn't stand it anymore, he took out the water bag from his side and handed it over.

"Hmm, thank you... Lord Neos!"

Like a rescued drowning person, Mirta poured it into her mouth after receiving the water bag, soaked the bread in her mouth, and swallowed it all at once.

As a result, he was choked again, so he could only drink water and pat his chest continuously, the two balls holding up the blue robe trembled.

Nios looked away, looked at the rain outside the cave, and was speechless for a long time.

"Ah, I'm saved!" Martha patted her chest, panting and laughing.

"It's not good for you." Neos said suddenly.

"Huh?" Martha was stunned.

Nios said: "Remember, eat slowly in the future, chew slowly, it is good for your body."

"Hey, no one has ever told me that before,"

Martha scratched her head embarrassingly: "Because there was often no food at home, and even after being sent to church,

I also have to compete with other children for food every day, so I have always developed this habit. "

"The church adopted you?" Neos asked.

"Well, many parents can't afford to support their children, and some children don't have parents at all. If it weren't for the church, many children would die, including me." Maerda said in a low voice.

Neos was silent for a moment: "Not bad."

"Well, that's why I've always stood firm in my beliefs,"

Martha smiled, took out the necklace of the cross from her bosom, lowered her head and kissed it, like an angel descending: "In the darkest moment of my life, this symbol gave me hope, and he also represents the faith of hope."

"...and the principle of this belief is to firmly believe that everyone has a side of goodness,

Therefore, as believers, we must practice this belief by doing good deeds and on the principle of not expecting anything in return..."

The girl spoke, her brisk voice intertwined with the sound of rain.

"..."

Nios listened quietly, looked up at the rain, and whispered, "Really, that's great."

Martha broke away from the dreamlike state.

"Ah, sorry sorry, I've always been like this when it comes to this,

You always say so much without knowing it, Lord Neos must not want to hear it. ’ she waved in panic.

"No, just increase your knowledge and broaden your horizons." Neos shrugged.

"Ah, Lord Neos is indeed a good person, he is so tolerant of my behavior!" Mirtha felt like crying.

Nios was taken aback, "So you were beaten for preaching before?"

"It's not that bad, it's just being spat on, but later the bishop taught me because of this." Martha kept her cheeks silent, a little embarrassed.

"What did he say?" Neos became interested.

"He said that teachings are used to restrain and remind oneself, and you must not force others.

You can't use the precepts of faith to divide the crowd, otherwise it is harming people. "Martha looked solemn.

"That's not bad, but I hope that neither you nor this young religion will change."

Neos nodded, and after sighing, he stood up, took out three small bottles from his arms, and threw them to Martha.

The girl caught it in a hurry, and looked down: "What is this?"

"Sesame oil, mixed with medicinal herbs picked up on the road, can relieve itching and repel insects. You can distribute a bottle to everyone in a while." Nios said.

"Wow!"

Mierda was amazed, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "So just now, my lord, you went out in the rain just for this?"

Neos didn't affirm, but he didn't deny either.

"But none of us got bitten by bugs either..."

Martha looked at the vial and was talking to herself, but she froze for a moment, subconsciously looking at Nero who was sleeping soundly in the corner of the cave.

Chapter 179 Chapter 170 Eight We all have our own forest

Before dawn, the rain had stopped.

The five people were awakened by the singing of birds outside the cave, and Nios ordered them to pack their bags and set off before sunrise.

The route remains the same, along the valley, all the way north.

Aya is athletic, slender and tall, and is always arranged in front to scout the way.

Romanio surrounded Martha courteously, asking questions.

Neos was out of breath, with a calm face, and walked forward without any haste; Nero followed behind him, whistling and bouncing.

It was always Nios who was in charge of the back of the palace and cleaning up the traces before, but after Nero left the cave, he stubbornly wanted to be at the end.

Although the reason was "I walk slowly, my legs and feet are not good", but she knew in her heart that only when she walked behind, could she stare at him unscrupulously, even if it was just to look at his back.

There is no need to look back frequently like before, pretending to look at others, but actually looking at him, which leads to revealing intentions.

What disappointed her was that since Nios walked in front, he never looked back and never said a word from beginning to end.

......

The five of them walked for an unknown amount of time, and just when they felt tired, leaves rang in the forest and the direction of the wind changed.

Romagno, who was walking in front, turned his head suddenly, moved his nose slightly, and couldn't help frowning: "What smell?"

"It seems to be herbs, the medicinal oil that Master Neos gave us?" Martha also smelled it.

A unique fragrance of herbs, mixed with a pungent smell, seems to be full of this smell in the wind at the moment.

"..."

Aya couldn't help but stop, panted a few times, turned her head helplessly, and stared at Neos with her eyelids hanging from exhaustion: "Hey, have you taken any medicine yet?"

Nios was silent for a moment, nodded slightly, and smiled: "Ah, the strong smell of herbs will cover our tracks, so that predators will be confused and lose our bearings."
