You call this the god of etiquette?

Chapter 46 The Waiting Girl

Watching the trolls go away, Yige waded across the Nalchik River with a cart full of furs.

Because the time spent in "Tomb No. [-]" was far longer than expected.

By the time we returned to "Talek", it was almost evening.

Under the respectful gaze of the guards, Yige slowly pushed the cart into the town.

The mud on the road has stained the wheels of the cart black.

Yige didn't feel bad either.

After all, it cost him 5 coppers to buy this shoddy second-hand scooter from a peddler on Nieman Street.

Being able to persist until the end of this handover is already worth the cost.

The main road of "Talek", the shouts along the street along Talek Avenue are still there.

"Excellent gray rabbit fur! The tannery is bankrupt, and there is a big clearance sale, come and have a look!"

"Father Earth is watching us! Join Father Earth Church!"

"A talisman with 26 coppers! Guaranteed against evil spirits! If there is no effect, you can get your money back!"

Yige stopped and pushed the cart towards the last peddler.

The peddler is of medium build, slightly thin, but his arms are strong and powerful.

There are several deep and shallow wrinkles on the face.

Carrying a sturdy leather bag.

"Praise the god of etiquette! Today is really a good day, Priest Yige." The peddler saw Yige dressed in a black robe, and immediately recognized him, his eyes lit up, and he greeted him with a flattering smile.

Now the civilians of "Talek" don't know that the original "Daydreaming Yige" has been transformed into a "Yig Priest".

He also spent money to build a large temple on Ligang Street.

The peddler even heard from his cousin who worked as a cleaner in the mayor's office that Priest Yige was so powerful that no gangster on Ligang Street dared to offend him.

How can the peddler be unhappy when such a distinguished guest arrives.

Yige drew a rectangle and nodded in response: "Tell me about your amulet."

Come to business!

Without further ado, the peddler took out a very mysterious amulet.

It is carved from a single block of black onyx, covered with alternating veins of dark blue.

Every path is shining mysteriously under the light.

Oval in shape as a whole, it is light but unexpectedly gives an indestructible sense of security.

Ig took the agate amulet and examined it back and forth.

The workmanship is really good.

In this way, the price of 26 copper is also reasonable.

Unfortunately, he didn't come to buy the so-called amulets.

"How did you come up with the idea to sell this?"

Yige said, and returned the amulet.

The peddler vaguely feels that this business cannot be done, but he still wants to work harder:
"It's all the rage in town now."

"Land Raven said that he is a devout follower of Father Earth, so he also assigned one to their family's guards."

"Priest Yige, of course you are a person favored by the gods."

"But for things like amulets, be prepared."

"You can buy one and try it, the effect is definitely good!"

Iger astutely gets to the point:

"You said, amulets are very popular in the town?"

"When did the trend of "Tariek" rise? "

The peddler couldn't figure out what Yige meant, so he asked subconsciously:

"Priest Yige, haven't you heard the rumor of 'Night Beast'?"

"Night beast?"

"Yeah, it's the ominous beast that is active in the town at night."

Yige asked back, "Have you ever met?"

The peddler chuckled: "My lord priest, you are joking again. If the villain met you, would you still be able to stand here alive?"

Yige heard the words and thought silently.

Since the night he "fished" with Eric, he never squatted at the black scale monster at night again.

If it wasn't for that weird skin still lying quietly at the bottom of his cabinet.

Yige even suspected that what he saw and heard at that time was an illusion.

Now it seems that those black-scaled monsters probably avoided him on purpose.

They didn't have much scruples about the weak "Talek" residents, and they attacked them several times.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to make even counterproductive products such as amulets have become a trend.

Yige realized that his foundation in "Talek" was still too weak.

The speed of getting the news is obviously lagging behind.

Not as good as the street vendors.

If he hadn't personally killed several monsters, he had the experience of facing "Night Beasts" directly.

I'm afraid this matter will be kept in the dark from beginning to end.

Another example is Aldis from "Foy Town".

After the completion of the temple, he left without saying goodbye.

Yige wanted to find out his whereabouts and origins.

But returned without success.

After all, his information channel is actually the rumors on Leighton Street.

Ugh.

The development of the Ritual of Black Church has a long way to go.

In the cramped room at 15 Leighton Street.

Mary sat on her simple little bed, her slender body half leaning against the wall.

She clenched her hands tightly, rubbing back and forth on her legs.

There was a sound of footsteps.

I can't count how many times it has been.

He rushed to the window like a rabbit.

Looking at the street through the broken windows.

Ah, Uncle Xavier.

It looks like the Huntsman is back.

Dad is probably coming home soon.

Is it this late?
Mary sat back on the bed.

Pick up a torn storybook next to you, and try to transfer your thoughts to the story.

However, she is no longer a child after all.

Storybooks have limited appeal.

Moreover, no matter how good the story is, it will only feel boring after reading it hundreds of times.

As the minutes passed, Mary felt more and more helpless and frustrated.

She imagined that she was baptized in the bright temple and received the blessing of the gods.

And yet, in this small room, Mary fidgeted on this crumbling, age-stained cot.

I can only feel the feeling of darkening with the sky.

Her thoughts were in a mess at the moment.

I began to recall the past two months in my mind.

Did Priest Yige feel dissatisfied with his performance?

Or did the hint given to Priest Yige at the beginning make him feel that she was a frivolous woman, not suitable for being a priest?
Pope saw her daughter's every move, feeling a little distressed:

"Mary, stop sitting there like a fool, and come and help me with my sewing."

"Ah, yes, Mom."

"Ok."

Mary walked over to Pope in a daze.

Take the needle lightly.

Sit down beside your mother like a walking dead.

Pope sighed: "Marie, don't think too much."

"The temple has just been built, Priest Yige must have a lot of things to do."

"Just wait patiently."

Mary nodded numbly up and down.

It seems that I have lost interest in everything around me.

suddenly.

There was a knock on the door.

Ah, it should be that Dad is back.

Frustrated, Mary put the needles on the bed beside her, got up and opened the door.

standing outside the door.
Standing outside the door is Priest Yige! !

Looking at the black-robed priest with a tough face as always.

Marie suddenly felt that the colors of the world became brighter, and the eyes burst into light.

a lunge.

He hugged Yige who was about to apologize first.
