Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

"So sir, you should cherish her." Nan Shizhi changed the subject and said softly and gently: "Sister is a rare and good woman. If you miss her, sir, you will regret it for the rest of your life... Even if you are a sister, let me Six years was too long for her to wait."

"I know." Bai Yu didn't make excuses, and said calmly: "This is my problem, I'm sorry."

...Is your apology so straightforward?

Minami Shiori didn't know what to say.

In Yingzhou, men are always in charge. Even though she is already the head of the family, she has not been able to develop much dignity... At least she cannot remain too strong in front of the man who is actually her brother-in-law.

She's just a reminder.

As a younger sister, she shouldn't have done such unnecessary things, but there are no elders in the family, and she is the only relative who can say some slightly heavy words on her behalf.

What he got in return was a sincere apology.

On the contrary, it made her a little confused.

How can there be such a thing?

Is this too foul?

She opened her mouth, several words swirled in her throat, and then she swallowed it again, saying quietly: "I, I don't mean to blame you."

Nan Shizhi's embarrassed look was exposed, and Bai Yu couldn't help but laugh. He stood up, walked forward, stretched out his hand and put it on her hair, and rubbed it gently: "I know... As a younger sister, I care about my older sister. This It’s your duty.”

"If you can say these things under pressure, of course I should respond sincerely."

"Don't worry about anything. In my values, if you are wrong, you are wrong, and you should bow your head and apologize; right or wrong does not depend on human will."

"You dare to say that. I admire you even more and I should praise you... You are a good girl, really amazing."

Bai Yu thought to herself, after all, I'm not a straight man. Saying a few nice words and apologizing can gain favorability, so it's not a disadvantage.

Minami Shiori, who was killed by having his head touched, probably had never experienced such a feeling in his life.

No one has done this to her since she was ten years old.

He froze in place for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, her face was covered with red clouds, and her two little hands had no place to rest. They raised and put them down, grabbing the corners of her clothes. Her body was trembling, feeling a little happy and a little ashamed.

At this time, the tarpaulin of the tent was lifted, and in the mist, a beautiful and bubbling woman leaned out half of her body.

"It feels so comfortable to take a bath. It's your turn, Shiori..."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the two of them separated in a panic.

Nan Shizhi held her hair and bent down, while Bai Yu moved his wrist unnaturally.

"What happen to you guys?"

"No, it's nothing!" Nan Shizhi rushed into the tent in a panic: "I, I went to take a shower!"

Bai Yu put his hands back into his pockets and laughed dryly: "I just praised her and touched her head by the way."

Facing the smiling gaze of Amamiya Mahiru, he said with a guilty conscience: "It's the top one..."

Chapter 598 Holy Church Missionaries

Gulu gulu gulu...

Nan Shizhi soaked herself in a bucket, imagining that she was blowing bubbles like a fish.

Suddenly a cold little hand stroked her back.

"Alas!"

She suddenly opened her mouth and raised her chin, almost choking herself.

When I turned around, I saw my sister who was smiling beautifully.

"elder sister……"

"You still like to drink bath water as you did when you were a kid. It's a really bad habit." Mahiru Amamiya poked her head: "I'll wash your hair and wipe your back."

"No, no need, you go and accompany sir." Nan Shizhi turned around unnaturally.

"The husband said he wanted to go out for a walk, so don't worry about him for now."

"My sister said this really against her will. She has always wanted to see him before."

"That's different." Amemiya Mahiru rolled up her sleeves, revealing her smooth arms, and spread the shampoo evenly in the center of her palms: "We're not really meeting yet."

"what?"

"That's right, you don't understand." Amamiya Mahiru gathered her sister's black hair, applied shampoo, worked up some foam, and rubbed it gently. The air was filled with the fresh scent of grass and trees. "Our affairs are actually very complicated. Don't blame the gentleman too much."

"How dare I..." Nan Shizhi replied subconsciously, then raised her head: "Sister, you heard... hiss!"

She screamed in pain as her hair was pulled.

Mahiru Amamiya pushed her back: "Lie down and don't move."

She said calmly: "Of course I can hear you. How could I not hear what you said just outside the camp?"

"I didn't mean it." Nan Shizhi immediately gave up: "I just felt a little unfair."

"You are the head of the family, you can say whatever you want." Mahiru rubbed her hair softly: "Sir, you don't mind, and I certainly don't mind either, but as a sister, I want to warn you, don't push yourself too far, otherwise, if you don't get angry, I will too. angry."

"……I was wrong."

"You're not wrong." Amamiya Mahiru poured warm water over her to disperse the foam. "I'm actually very happy that you said that. I'm even happier that Mr. doesn't blame you... So everyone is happy, no one is unhappy."

Minami Shiori's mood was complicated.

"Sometimes a sister is just like a daughter. No one will blame you if you make a few mistakes." Mahiru Amemiya also touched her head: "Me too."

"Who wants to be a daughter?" Nan Shizhi turned away.

"Then what do you want to be?"

"I take it..." Nan Shizhi was about to say, but then he realized what he was saying. Facing her sister's narrow gaze, she changed her words: "I don't take anything seriously. This is a matter between my sister and my husband. I, an outsider, shouldn't get involved. .”

Amamiya Mahiru applied conditioner on her hair and spoke softly: "The things between us are more complicated than you think... So, do you want to help a bunch of sisters?"

Nan Shizhi felt that these words were more like guidance, but she had always been outspoken, and her intuition and sensibility were inversely proportional.

"Of course I will help my sister."

"Very good." Amemiya Mahiru smiled broadly, and said to her ear affectionately: "Sister, I have a small matter and I need your help."

When Nan Shizhi heard the subsequent whisper, his eyes widened with disbelief.

"Seriously?"

"Otherwise, why do you think I suddenly wanted to wash your hair and rub your back on a whim?"

Amemiya Mahiru smiled and picked up the massage towel: "Fortunately you don't have a tattoo, otherwise I would have to wipe it clean for you today."

……

A wise man should learn to stay away from dangerous situations.

Especially when facing your sister-in-law, you have to be careful.

They say that half of a sister-in-law’s butt belongs to her brother-in-law. I didn’t understand it before, but now I understand.

Not only the sister-in-law is, but also the sister-in-law.

Bai Yu put his hand on his forehead.

Sister don is something that you can think about, but if you want to realize it regardless of your own strength.

I am afraid that one of them will turn into the master of Yao Yue Palace, and the other will turn into Li Mochou.

At that time, the direction of the story will completely change, and it will be drawn by the cartoonist of the book, and the name will be changed to "Fifth Section of White Elm"

Bai Yu shuddered and recited Amitabha silently. He had never had such sinful thoughts.

After leaving the camp, we took a walk.

It is entirely for the basic purpose of relaxing.

Suddenly I saw a burst of soft white light.

Not far away, a woman wearing a white-gold robe could be seen standing in the corner, bending down to release soft light.

Is this... a spell?

No, it seems like a sacred prayer?

Bai Yu took a few steps closer and was stopped by a sturdy man wearing a white robe. His robe looked like a priest from Poison Milk Powder, with a cross hanging on his body and nails inserted in his waist. The headbutt proves that his profession is clearly derived from the Holy Church of Western Rome.

Strictly speaking, Bai Yu didn't have much dealings with the Holy Church.

But Elyse and the saint Jeanne are good friends.

The essence of the Holy Church is the authority in the hands of the Roman royal family, responsible for the management of Rome's extraordinary system.

From this perspective, Rome has extremely strong war mobilization capabilities, and the proportion of extraordinary people in its army among the total number of people is one of the highest in the world.

During the conversation between Bai Yu and Elise, she heard her mention that when she went to the Holy Church to worship (actually to play with Jeanne), she encountered several priests who came to inspect.

Priests also have different occupations in the Holy Church. Simply put, they are civil and military... The civilian priests are similar to the impression, dressed in black robes, polite and elegant, and may secretly like to purify the sins in the little boy's body; while the military priests The pastor's style of painting has to cater to many people. He wears a white robe with many classic patterns. He is powerful and muscular, and he is ready to blow the skulls of all heretical believers with a mace at any time.

Most of the combat priests also have medical licenses. In other words, they can increase blood, can be in the front row, are good at charging, can purify curses, can subdue fierce horses, level A with divine light, cleave with sword energy, and have both magic and martial arts. .

Bai Yu said with emotion at that time - this is probably the strongest profession in Rome.

Elysee said that the combat priests have always been top-notch extraordinary ones with the same reputation as the Templars. There are no more than a thousand people in the Holy Church, and they are scattered throughout the year to perform tasks.

Now he has finally seen it.

The battle priest said kindly, "The Saint is treating the wounded. If you need help, please go and get in line. If not, please don't come near and disturb her."

Bai Yu didn't walk over, but cast an interested look: "You mean, the Saint?"

"Yes." The battle priest smiled: "Do you also know something about the Holy Church?"

"I heard something." Bai Yu nodded and replied in Roman: "There should be less than five people with the position of saint in the church, and their status is very important. How could they come to a remote area like Yingzhou?"

The battle priest was slightly surprised that the young man was so proficient in Roman and even had an authentic accent, so he replied: "We are here to preach."

Bai Yu narrowed his eyes: "Seriously?"

"Of course." the priest said affirmatively.

"It's obviously a missionary mission, why come to the Huangquan front line?" Bai Yu continued the familiar conversation.

Because of Jeanne, he did not have a bad impression of the Holy Church. At least the church in this world, as a kind of power institution, could be used by people and go deep into society to do practical things, which was much better than religions that only talked about faith in vain.

"This..." the battle priest said hesitantly: "We want to do our part for Yingzhou."

Bai Yu pointed out directly: "It's because the shogunate didn't allow you to preach. You were worried about being deported, so you took the initiative to come to the Huangquan front line, tried to make contributions, and then got permission from the shogunate to preach."

The priest was startled at first, and then looked over warily.

"Don't be nervous, I haven't investigated you." Bai Yu shook his head and sighed: "This is how missionary work has been since ancient times."

Especially after the Age of Navigation began, many old colonial empires liked to do this, sending missionaries to preach and build churches around the world.

At this time, the local rulers have two choices, to suppress or not to suppress.

If suppressed, the result would be to give the established colonial empires an excuse to go to war;

If there is no suppression, local religious interests will be damaged due to conflicts of faith, and believers will riot, burn churches and kill missionaries...

Even if the local religion is stabilized, the missionaries will expand their influence locally, and then they will lobby the people in power to ask for military protection. If they agree, the other side's fleet will come over. As for when to leave, that is up to them.

This set of operations has been seen too many times in history, and it is not uncommon.

And the battle priest and the saint went to Yingzhou in person to preach...

This is actually relatively rare.

Usually missionaries are cannon fodder.

And it was still three years ago.

Judging from later generations, they must have failed in their missionary work.

Bai Yu said firmly: "The shogunate will definitely not issue you a missionary permission."

"How do you know?" Battle Priest asked in surprise.

"Yingzhou is a system of belief in canonization. If you come here to preach, you are digging up the foundation of Yingzhou's canonization. The invasion of alien beliefs will cause war." Bai Yu said lightly. In fact, the reason is very simple, because the shogunate is unwilling Go to war with the Emperor.
