Before Paul could finish speaking, Todd jumped out of the carriage, rushed to the priest, and hugged him tightly.
This move was beyond everyone’s expectations!
Some people even rubbed their eyes in disbelief.
Under the gaze of everyone in the church group, Todd looked excited and stretched his trembling hands to the sky: "Praise Heavenly Father! I want to cheer to the Lord!"
Turning around, he came to the church door of the camp. Regardless of the mud beneath him, Todd knelt down towards the cross on the top of the building: "Heavenly Father! The people you shepherd have gone through hardships and overcome the evil of the world.
, strive for the crown of glory in heaven, and finally return to you!"
"Todd!"
Paul loudly rebuked the behavior of the kneelers, and his words were harsh and harsh: "Put away your hypocritical face, you started a fight without permission! As a result, the believers in the church suffered unnecessary losses!"
Todd stood up and turned around, his face full of surprise: "Selfish desires? Needless loss?! Father Paul, do you know what you are talking about?"
The priest rolled up his sleeves, raised his chin, and the joy of revenge was written on his gloomy face: "You deceived the brothers of the church, and for your greed, you let these children of Heavenly Father die meaninglessly..."
"Shut up!" Todd's roar shocked everyone present. His face turned red, his lips trembled with anger, and his voice became distorted: "Father Paul, you can insult my personality, but how can you wantonly taint the dead?
Honor. The loyal warriors faced several times the number of enemies, did not flinch, and fought to the death! They used their lives to abide by their sacred oaths and uphold their pious beliefs!"
When Paul heard what the other party said, he became angry: "That's nonsense! It was you who persuaded those people to die! The enemy was only sixteen pirates, but twenty-seven of you died! Incompetent! Shame!"
After hearing this, the leader of the believers threw the wine glass in his hand into the dirt angrily, and left the square of the camp with his men. Several knights looked at each other angrily, and some wanted to take out the wine glass from their waists.
Fortunately, the retinue stopped him in time.
Looking at the reactions of the people around him, Todd quickly changed the subject: "Father, you don't understand the meaning of this battle."
Paul laughed angrily: "Oh? Tell me, what is the meaning of this battle?!"
"This is a holy war."
"joke!"
Ignoring the cynicism behind him, Todd walked towards the carriage and called the guard to come over and help him.
Placing the wooden crate gently on the soil, Todd waved to everyone in the square, gesturing for everyone to gather over.
When the first wooden box was opened, everyone present felt as if a string had been broken in their minds, and they suddenly lost the ability to think.
It's not as kitschy as gold coins, nor as rough as pearls.
In the wooden box, the beauty of these glasses is not inherent. It is the combination of flame and earth. This beauty is refreshing from the inside out.
Todd picked up a glass and pointed it toward the sun. Under the sunlight, it looked even more shining and charming.
Someone looks from one end of the glass to the other, and the person on the opposite side can clearly see it. No impurities or flaws can be seen.
“Priceless!”
“Perfect crystal!”
Someone looked at the cup along the light, and suddenly made a new discovery: "Look! There are words on the cup!"
When everyone heard this, they quickly came closer, squinted their eyes, and carefully saw a line of small characters written by Gu Tailuo.
"Whoever believes in me, believes not in me but in him who sent me."
A believer who is familiar with the sacred texts first said: "This sentence comes from the Gospel of the Saints, and it means 'to believe in the Son is to believe in the Father'!"
Someone also said: "The Gospel of the Saints was completed by the priest Edoma in 529 A.D. and was written in Christian script (Latin), but how could it be engraved here in ancient Tyrian script?"
"Brother Todd, where did you find these crystals?"
Todd lowered his head, with a tone of three-quarter sigh and seven-quarter recall: "On a remote island in the north."
People who had heard some rumors and rumors began to whisper among themselves, but were soon stunned by Todd's next words.
"Heavenly Father is the sublime God, the king who transcends all gods. The earth and the abyss are in his hands, and the mountains and mountains are his works." The monk pointed to the glass in the box: "Naturally, these are not the same.
Except, they all belong to Heavenly Father!”
Someone stammered and asked in an uncertain tone: "Brother Todd, what do you mean...?"
"I am willing to dedicate all these crystals to the church!"
Todd's face was full of piety, and the sun was shining on his head, as if he was wearing a halo.
"Heavenly Father!"
"Praise for your good deeds!"
"You are the most loyal servant I have ever seen under the rule of the Holy Spirit!"
Todd stretched out his hand to stop everyone's praise, and then said: "But I hope to get the right to control two boxes of the property on the carriage."
Um?
Some people are confused. Didn’t I just say that they would all be dedicated to the church? Why did they suddenly have to separate two boxes?
Some shady people even secretly thought that after all, it is a priceless treasure, and it is only human nature to want to share some of it.
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Todd looked at the crowd of priests who had agreed to lend troops: "Those who are kind and caring and firm in decision-making, without them who agreed to lend troops, jihad, treasures, and everything else would have been lost."
, naturally there is no way to talk about it, they should receive the first gift."
After bowing deeply to the knights participating in the battle, Todd continued: "Those who are strategizing, loyal and brave, if they do not fight with honor and kill the enemy bravely, perhaps the holy war will end in failure, and they deserve to be rewarded
.”
Finally pointing his finger to the earth, Todd said sadly: "Those who sacrificed their lives for the Father, without their sacrifice and fighting against the infidels with their lives, we may not be able to stand here. Their sacrifices need to be rewarded."
comfort."
People understood what he meant.
This is to distribute some of the crystals to priests, knights and those who died in the battle.
What a kind person!
What a humble person!
The priests were deeply moved, the knights remembered the past, and the friends and relatives of the deceased had tears in their eyes.
Only one person gritted his teeth and raised objections.
"I don't agree!" Father Paul looked crazy and shouted crazily: "You are trying to win people's hearts! All crystals must be handed over to the church, and they are never allowed to be disposed of privately!"
He looked at the people around him with red eyes and clenched fists.
Todd laughed.
This round, a complete victory.
————————————
Three days later.
Silver Ring City, St. Peter's Cathedral.
The bishop's deacon took a document and hurriedly knocked on the door of the bishop's exposition hall.
"Come in."
As soon as Bishop Fabian's voice sounded, the aide rushed in impatiently: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Bishop! Viscount Pachelit has written you a letter of condemnation about Father Paul..."
The old man rubbed his forehead and pointed to the table in front of him: "Find a place to put it down."
The deacon looked at the table and found that he couldn't do it.
The huge table was filled with all kinds of documents. Taking a closer look, there were letters of complaint, letters of appeal, letters of report...the people they targeted were without exception Father Paul.
The bishop flipped through the letter in front of him, trying to find his pen. After a moment, he gave up this futile move and said to the deacon: "Immediately draft a letter of appointment and dismissal of the visiting delegation to remove Father Paul from the position of leader...
