??Guan Lin's sleeves were pushed up by Lu Yu, and several obvious pinch marks could be seen on his arms, one of which even oozes blood. Against the background of his cold white skin, he looked a little startling.
??"fine."
??As if to comfort him, Guan Lin said softly, and withdrew his hand.His eyes flicked over the man who seemed to have lost his soul, and then fell on a few people beside him.
??He lowered his head slightly: "My condolences."
?? At this time, those people finally reacted from the fear and panic, and low cries sounded one after another, mourning and despairing.
?? Lu Yu suddenly walked up to the man, squatted straight down, and looked at the disheveled man kneeling on the ground, his tone still cold:
?? "There is no child you mentioned in this group of people."
??The man was taken aback, and immediately raised his head, a glint of hope flashed in his dull eyes.
?? Lu Yu clearly remembered that among the people taken away by the devil before, there was not a single boy with a birthmark on his face, so the man's child was not taken away by the devil with Nina and the others at all.
?? He then asked: "When did he disappear?"
?? "It was five days ago!"
The man quickly replied: "Five days ago, he said he wanted his friends to go out to play, so he left after dinner, but he didn't come back all night. The next day I searched all the surrounding streets, but couldn't find him... ..."
?? Lu Yu raised his eyebrows: "Then what about his friend, didn't he come back?"
The man shook his head: "No, he didn't go home either. His mother was also worried about him, but her legs and feet were bad, so she couldn't go out..."
"Sir, do you have anything left by John here?"
?? Cardinal Sann came over from the side. After listening to all the man's narration, his gray eyebrows were tightly frowned.
??The man took out a pendant from his pocket: "This, this is something that John gave to his mother before, saying it can bless peace."
?? It was a small silver pendant, in the shape of a water drop. The middle part was transparent. It contained a small amount of black liquid, which seemed to have a certain degree of viscosity.
??Sarn removed the small silver plug on the top of the pendant, and suddenly, a strange breath spread.The man was still at a loss as to what had happened, but all the monks present at the Holy See turned pale, they were all too familiar with the smell.
?? "Devil's blood." Sarn made a conclusion in a deep voice.
??[Drip——Congratulations on completing the plot: Escorting the hero and heroine back to the city of Istopia.Current plot completion: 25%. 】
??[New plot mission starts: Find out the truth about the disappearance of the boy John.This task requires the male and female protagonists to be present at the same time, otherwise it will directly determine that the overall task has failed. 】
?? If Guan Lin and Nina cannot be present at the same time, then it will be directly judged as a failure?
?? Lu Yu secretly clicked his tongue. In order to pull the plot back to the hero and heroine, the dog system even made a mandatory request.
??The appearance of the devil's blood has made the disappearance of the boy John even more confusing. Maybe it has something to do with the demon priest.Guan Lin asked two monks to send John's father back home, and prepared to lead the Holy See to rest at the Holy See branch in the city, but Nina's father, Earl Simpson, insisted on thanking the Holy See for saving his daughter's life, and said that he was already in the Holy See. A sumptuous dinner is ready at home.
??The kindness is hard to refuse, Guan Lin had no choice but to agree, and the Holy See and his party came all the way to Earl Simpson's mansion.
?? After entering the door, Bishop Sarn suddenly noticed something, staring at Lu Yu who was approaching Guan Lin: "Traveler, why are you still here?"
?? "I'm here to eat." Lu Yu was confident.
?? San: "..."
?? This unscrupulous guy is clearly pestering His Royal Highness Son!
??But he saw that Lu Yu took the initiative to protect Guan Lin before, so he didn't say anything at this time, just snorted angrily and left.
??Guan Lin explained to Lu Yu in a low voice: "Bishop Sarn...he has always been straightforward and doesn't know how to hide his emotions. But his nature is actually very kind."
?? Lu Yu smiled at him: "I know."
??Bishop Sarn is an elder who watched Guan Lin grow up. He is like Guan Lin's grandfather. Guan Lin grew up under the hands of the Pope, an inhuman thing. Only Sarn treats him like a real relative. concern.
??So even if Bishop Sarn was unhappy with him, Lu Yu didn't care.
?? After all, love will definitely be blocked by external forces. Only by overcoming many hardships can true love be forged.
?? Lu Yu sang praises and tears of love in his heart, and asked the system: "Am I right, everything?"
??system:【……】
?? It is less desirable to the dog than to the host.
??The servants of the earl's mansion led them to the guest room to change clothes and wash the dust. Lu Yu took the first hot bath after coming to this world, feeling as if the whole person was reborn.
?? He shaved off his stubble, threw away the tattered clothes, and put on a simple men's dress prepared by a servant. The tail of his black hair was a bit long, so he randomly found a short rope and tied it up, looking refreshed Arrived at the banquet hall.
?? As soon as he appeared, the monks around the Holy See couldn't help showing a look of surprise, and the faces of several nuns were a little red.
??No one expected that this slovenly-looking traveler could look so good after tidying up. He stood there casually, exuding an elegant and coquettish temperament in his gestures, lining the corners of his lips With a casual smile, it seems that he is not giving way to His Royal Highness the Son.
??Guan Lin has arrived at the banquet hall. He is still wearing the white monk's uniform embroidered with gold thread. He has only taken off his outer robe. The ends of his hair are still a little wet after taking a bath.Before Lu Yu got close to him, the devil's keen sense of smell smelled him first. The cool cedar fragrance mixed with the sweet fragrance of the guest room bath products made Lu Yu's heart itch.
??The long table is enough to accommodate more than 20 people for dinner. Earl Simpson sits at the main seat, and Guan Lin is the most distinguished guest seat on the right. Opposite Guan Lin sits Nina who has changed into a full dress.
?? The seat next to Guan Lin has been taken by Saen, and the old man still glanced at him triumphantly at this time. Lu Yu silently thought in his heart that respecting the old and loving the young is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, and hesitated whether to go to the long table Sit at the end.
?? But Nina waved her hand sweetly at him: "Brother Lu, sit here."
??The little girl said so, and Lu Yu couldn't refuse. He sat next to her and stared at Bishop Sarn opposite him.
?? This dinner, although Guan Lin was reticent and Saen was serious, but the lively atmosphere of Lu Yu, who talked about people and talked about ghosts, was praised by the enthusiastic Earl Simpson.
??After the dinner, all the monks returned to their guest rooms to rest, but Nina secretly called Lu Yu and pulled him to a secluded corridor next to him.
?? She looked at him with some concern: "Brother Lu, after tomorrow, are you going to leave with the adults of the Holy See?"
??After receiving Lu Yu's positive response, she took out a golden sign from her skirt pocket and stuffed it into his hand.
"Brother Lu, you don't want gold, silver, treasures, or other things. I really can't think of anything to give you..." Nina twisted her fingers, "But you are a traveler, and you must go to many cities. It is a token of our Simpson family, with this identity card, you are the most honored guest of our family, and other people will respect you."
?? She clenched her fists: "Although I don't know what you are going to do, I can guess that it is a very dangerous thing, probably related to demons... I, I don't know anything, and I can't help much , so I can only let my father help you..."
??Looking at the girl with pursed lips in front of him, Lu Yu not only raised his eyebrows.
??She was really reconciled. She would have cried in the past, but at this moment she just frowned tightly, and her brows and eyes were filled with the anguish of having more than enough heart but not enough power.
?? Lu Yu suddenly remembered his younger sister, Lu Chen. When the little girl was just learning to walk, she stepped on a stool and wanted to pull the sugar bowl on the table. In the end, she almost fell off her ass, and she managed to be hugged by him in time.As a result, she still pouted and coaxed her for a long time without saying a word, and then she told him aggrievedly that she wanted to give candy to her brother.
"Then do you want to help us yourself?"
?? Lu Yu suddenly asked.
?? Nina suddenly raised her head: "Really, really, Brother Lu?!"
??Lu Yu blinked and said with a smile: "That's right, and it can be of great help. But you need to learn some basic holy light techniques from the nuns to protect yourself. Can you do it?"
?? Nina nodded like a chicken pecking rice.
"Then come on," Lu Yu turned around, walked towards his room, and waved his right hand, "Tomorrow I will tell you the specifics, let's have a good dream tonight. By the way, don't give such a precious thing to others casually in the future, Miss Nina."
?? Nina was stunned, only to find that his right hand was empty, and hurriedly touched the pocket on the skirt. Sure enough, there was a heavy thing, which was the identity card.
?? System: [Host, why don't you accept the heroine's gift? 】
Lu Yu shrugged his shoulders: "It's too precious. If I'm not mistaken, she slipped that ID card to me without telling the earl. The Holy See saved her life, but she didn't give it to them, but she gave it to them. The thing was given to me just because I said a few more words to her along the way, and I can't afford it.
?? "And am I the kind of person who takes things from girls casually? I have my own heart. Although I have many ex-boyfriends, I am very specific in every relationship..."
??He hadn't finished wrangling with the system, and when he turned around from the corner of the corridor, he almost bumped into a figure who was slightly shorter than him.
??The cold cedar fragrance hit, just like what you smelled in the banquet hall today, His Highness the Holy Son restrained the aura around him, so with Lu Yu's sensitivity, he was able to detect when he bumped into it.
??His Royal Highness the Son of God did not hide, and looked at him calmly as if he was just passing by: "Go back to the room?"
?? Lu Yu: "...Yeah, what a coincidence."
?? "Well," Guan Lin turned and walked forward, as if planning to go back with him, and added at the end, "By the way."
?? Lu Yu: "..."
??He followed Guan Lin, and was a little confused for a while. He didn't know whether he should care about the fact that His Royal Highness the Holy Son eavesdropped on the corner, or whether he should care about being alone with Nina but being seen by Guan Lin. A guilty conscience welled up in his chest inexplicably.
??"fine."
??As if to comfort him, Guan Lin said softly, and withdrew his hand.His eyes flicked over the man who seemed to have lost his soul, and then fell on a few people beside him.
??He lowered his head slightly: "My condolences."
