I am a god in another world
Chapter 315: The Story of an Egg
Even though the road to the Hammer of Justice Monastery was not particularly smooth, it still did not cause much obstacles for them.
The straight-line distance between Vizeme Manor and the Hammer of Justice Monastery was closer than expected, no more than 20 kilometers.
But when you really walk, the road is more roundabout.
First, you have to go down the Asaba River to the Good Luck Gorge and land here.
After walking along the Dun Hills for 15 kilometers, you can see the Hammer of Justice Monastery.
If you pass through the back of the Dun Hills, not only will the water route be halved, but the land route can also be reduced by one third.
But five kilometers of it is a mountain road with no road at all. Even if Gavin has six tree people, he dare not carry five carts of heavy goods to go there.
Once the goods are damaged, the loss will be great.
If a stable agreement is established with the Hammer of Justice Monastery, it is inevitable to open the road on the other side.
But this matter requires the consent of the Hammer of Justice Monastery, after all, it is on their territory.
No.
To be more precise, according to Gavin's temperament.
It must be that the Hammer of Justice Abbey takes the initiative to build the road, or pays them to build the road.
It is not difficult to do this, that is, let the Hammer of Justice Abbey need him and the Three Rivers Land, and they will naturally find a way to open up a cheap path.
Like most monasteries, the Hammer of Justice is not built on flat ground, but on the top of the mountain, which is typical of being easy to defend and difficult to attack.
This is not the first time Gavin has seen it.
Because its back, against the side of the cliff of Dun Hill, can overlook the Asaba River, which is a landmark building.
If a ship port can be built under the cliff, it will be the closest to the Hammer of Justice Abbey.
It's just that the amount of work is a bit large.
It is difficult to achieve without the intervention of magic.
The Hammer of Justice Abbey is more like a small castle than a monastery.
It does not exist in isolation. Starting from the foot of the mountain, it winds up along the road, with houses on both sides, all the way to the monastery.
The residents living here are either civilian believers of Tyr or farmers hired by the monastery to cultivate the land around the monastery.
Most of the endless farmlands they saw along the way belonged to the Hammer of Justice Abbey.
There was no need to annex land.
Because of the Hammer of Justice Abbey, it was possible to open up so many farmlands.
Since turning to the regular trade route, Gavin and his team saw the most frequent paladins, who were dressed exactly like Daniel and his team, carrying war hammers and paladin shields.
Or they were heading slowly towards the Hammer of Justice Abbey. Most of these paladins were exhausted. Most of them were out completing missions and returning to the abbey to report and repair.
Or they were riding away from the abbey at a fast pace. Most of them were carrying new missions, going to reinforce or investigate.
Gavin didn't know that they were the most eye-catching group of people on this trade route. Not to mention the passing paladins, even the pedestrians couldn't help but stop and watch them.
In the valley, everyone knew about tree people, and many had seen or even dealt with them.
Most of the valley is intertwined with the Great Forest of Cormanthor or deep in it, and the number of tree people here is much greater than people imagine.
After all, the history of the Great Forest of Cormanthor is as long as that of Faerun, and the life of tree people is often longer than that of dragons.
But most of the tree people they saw were in the forest.
It was the first time they saw a tree person pulling a cart, especially the one in the lead who looked so unusual.
The eyes of those holy warriors stayed more on Wu Liu, because the negative energy they exuded was so strong that even many evil places could not match it.
But after seeing Darnell's appearance clearly, they immediately put away their vigilance and showed him a sincere smile. Some even jumped off their horses and bowed to him.
It can be seen that Darnell's status in the Hammer of Justice Abbey is far more respected than Gavin and others thought.
Although the Hammer of Justice Abbey is not a law enforcement agency, it is a law enforcement agency in the valley.
Many locals encounter problems that they cannot solve, and usually choose to seek help from the monastery, especially cases related to suspected undead and evil creatures. The Hammer of Justice Monastery is the best choice for people in the nearby valleys.
The Hammer of Justice Monastery is not stingy in lending a helping hand.
It is usually free of charge.
Of course, those who have been helped will not let these kind and fair paladins make a wasted trip, and will prepare the most precious gifts for them.
This kind of gift depends entirely on the local economic conditions and the wishes of the parties involved.
It may be a pile of food and vegetables, or it may be a chicken, a sheep or a cow.
There are two most precious gifts that Daniel has received in his life.
One is a child. The family that received the help contributed their child to let him follow Daniel and become a paladin like him to help others. This person is none other than David.
The other is an egg. The person he helped was a beggar, a beggar who was wandering in the cold winter and was about to starve to death. The half-cooked egg that he had been holding in his arms for three days was the only food left on him.
When a person contributes all the life-saving things he has, is there anything more precious than this?
"Where's that beggar? What happened in the end?" kind-hearted Anna couldn't help but ask.
Darnell cast an admiring look at Anna and praised sincerely: "As expected of a believer in the good god Irmat, I have told many people about this matter, but like you, asking about the beggar's final outcome, Not more than one tenth.
Finally, I took the beggar back to the monastery. You can see him in a moment. Look, he is not here. "
While they were talking, they saw an old man limping towards Gavin and the others. His wrinkled face was filled with a sincere smile, and only half of his yellow teeth were left in his big, cracked mouth. Then he bowed and saluted: "Master Darnell, you are back."
Darnell jumped off the horse and hurried up to meet him: "Uncle Duke, I have told you many times, if your legs and feet are not convenient, don't come down the mountain to pick me up. Come on, get to the horse quickly."
Duke shook his head repeatedly and said: "How can I sit on the young master's war horse? Young master, sit on it quickly and I will lead the horse for you. This little mountain road is not a problem for me. I will lead the young master's horse for another twenty years. It will be no problem." "
"Uncle Duke, you don't have to do this."
"This is what I should do."
Darnell had an argument with the old servant named Duke, but no one wanted to sit in the carriage.
Gavin couldn't help but ask: "Will this happen every time Mr. Darnell comes back?"
David nodded and said: "This has happened every time since I followed the teacher. The other paladins in the monastery have long known Grandpa Duke's habits, so every time they meet the teacher on the road, they will secretly report to him when they come back. "
"Such simple feelings are hard to find in the world. He spent his whole life repaying the grace of survival." Gavin felt sincere admiration in his heart, not only for Darnell, but also for the lame old servant.
Even an ordinary thing will become extraordinary if it can be persisted for decades.
Gavin smiled and greeted from the side: "Mr. Darnell, there is no need to fight. There is still room in the car over there. Let the old gentleman sit on it and let's go up the mountain together."
This time Duke did not refuse. He limped over and took the initiative to climb onto the empty seat of the truck pulled by Broken Thorn. He gave Gavin a thumbs up and said, "Good people. My young master has made friends with all of them." Good people, did my young master tell you another story about eggs? "
"Don't listen to Master Darnell's words. I don't have the noble consciousness of Master Darnell and his paladins. At that time, I was simply hungry and confused. When my brain got hot, I took out the eggs.
You don't know, when I took out the eggs, I felt so regretful that my intestines were knotted.
Unexpectedly, Master Darnell was a good man. Although he accepted the eggs and gave me a whole piece of bread, he also carried me back to the monastery.
You don’t know that at that time, Master Darnell had just fought a fierce battle with a group of undead and was covered in blood.
One bloody step at a time, still carrying me, he climbed up bit by bit from where I just stood on all fours.
From that moment on, I was determined.
Master Darnell made me a horse once, and from then on I led horses for him all my life.
Unfortunately, time is not forgiving, and in the blink of an eye, twenty-two years have passed.
Master Darnell has become Master Darnell, and I am just pretending here. Master Darnell has never really let me lead a horse. "
Gavin and the others didn't even need to ask, Duke kept talking and poured out all the old memories in his stomach like beans from a bamboo tube.
This allowed Gavin and the others to have a deeper understanding of Darnell. He was also a pure person, a pure paladin. He had been doing this for decades and his true intentions had not changed to this day.
Perhaps more pure people can gather around pure people.
A journey with stories to listen to goes by exceptionally fast.
In the blink of an eye, they had followed the circular mountain path and reached the top of the mountain.
Dun Hills is a typical hilly area. The mountains are not too high, not too steep, and are in the shape of a belt.
The Hammer of Justice Monastery is located on one of the peaks, occupying the entire top of the mountain. In front of the gate is a large artificial square.
There is a circle of shops, pubs and hotels surrounding the large square.
Wherever Gavin and his group go, strange eyes will follow them.
As soon as they arrived, a group of paladin greeted them. The paladin at the head looked very old. The wrinkles on his face were like sculptures. He was wearing a simple white robe. But the holy aura exuding from his body was so vast and profound that even if the other party was not a legendary paladin, he was not far away.
When Darnell saw this old paladin, he was obviously shocked and said, "Your Excellency, the Grand Inquisitor, why did you come out in person?"
The chief judge smiled and said: "When a distinguished guest comes to your door, of course I will come out to greet him personally to show my respect."
Darnell hurriedly said: "Let me introduce to you, this is the Grand Judge of our Hammer of Justice, His Excellency Valon. He is in charge of all affairs of our Hammer of Justice. This is..."
"This man needs no introduction. Recently, all I have heard is his name. Mr. Gavin, you are young and promising. We, the Hammer of Justice, want to take your glory." Wa Long said with a hearty smile, obviously he had done enough homework before this.
Gavin bowed modestly and said, "Your Excellency the Grand Judge, you are right. It is because of the Hammer of Justice and Mr. Darnell that I got the benefit. If it were not for Mr. Darnell's selflessness, I would not have had the opportunity to recover the Vizeme Manor, nor would there have been a series of subsequent developments, nor would we have met today. All of this was made possible by Mr. Darnell's selfless character."
