Who hid my body?
Page 25
For some reason, he felt a very strange breath from the woman, but he didn't know what it was, so after hesitating for a while, Ulu still asked: "Is there anything wrong with your body?"
"It's just a minor illness," the woman said softly. "The priests in the Rhine have checked it out for me. As long as I take the medicine on time, I'll be fine."
"Is that so?" Uru originally wanted to ask about the details, but he felt that this was a bit too much. After all, he was not familiar with women, so he just nodded and said, "May Rhine protect you."
The woman bowed again: "Same to you."
When going upstairs, Bai Wei's voice suddenly rang in Ulu's mind: "It seems that you can really feel it."
Wu Lu's body squatted slightly, but he did not stop. Instead, he responded to Bai Wei in his heart: "What do you mean? What did you do to my body?"
"It will make your senses sharper and your magic more sophisticated." Bai Wei said with a smile, "Don't worry, there's no extra charge... well, to be more precise, no extra life."
"Are you so kind?" Ulu said coldly, "I don't believe that power doesn't come at a price."
"If you had understood this earlier, you wouldn't have bought my finger from that vendor."
Uru: “…”
"Also, this change does not require another life, because I am not giving it to you specifically, but it is a positive side effect." Bai Wei said slowly, "Let me give you an example that you can understand better. It is not all bad when a certain part of your body becomes enlarged. Although it is indeed a bit difficult to hold, you don't need to worry about not being able to discharge in the future. Do you understand?"
Uru: “…”
"That woman may have some trouble." Bai Wei said, "Do you want to help her solve it?"
"Why should I help her solve it?" Ulu asked, "Am I a good person in your eyes?"
"Oh, is that so? Then why do you want to stay in this hotel?"
At this time, Uru had already walked to the second floor. The little girl named Liya had already helped him clean up the room and was waving at him energetically: "Sir, your room is here."
Wu Lu nodded, and then said to Bai Wei in his heart without any expression: "I'm just too lazy to look for the next one. Besides, you've made my body like this, if I go to a big hotel, people will suspect me."
"Really?" Bai Wei said with a half-smile, "Then let's just take it as it is."
Bai Wei's words made Wu Lu feel very uncomfortable, but he didn't know what to say, so he pretended not to hear and walked straight towards Leah.

Chapter 44: I ask you what is Article of the Rhine Covenant?
After a light night's sleep, Ulu was awakened by a cough again.
He couldn't remember how many days in a row he had been woken up by the coughing. It made him feel annoyed and angry, so much so that after waking up, he shouted in his heart without disguising: "Visas, you..."
But before he could finish his words, the coughing became even more intense, but it came from next door.
Only then did Ulu realize that the cough that woke him up was not his own, but the one next door. It sounded like the proprietress who was not in good health.
"What's wrong?" Bai Wei's slow voice sounded in Ulu's mind.
Wu Lu, who originally wanted to ask Bai Wei what happened to his body, was silent for a while and then said in a muffled voice: "Nothing, just to see if you are still alive or dead."
"Strictly speaking, I won't die, or I've already died." Bai Wei said calmly, "And I must say that you are becoming less and less respectful to me. Before, you would call me Lord Visas."
"A half-dead being is not worthy of my respect."
After saying this bluntly, Ulu turned over and got out of bed.
Although the cough was not his own, Wulu still felt annoyed because he could clearly feel that Bai Wei had become more and more "active". At the beginning, Bai Wei was really like the legendary ancient existence, serious and full of mystery of a superior. He only talked to him a few words every day, and most of the time he seemed to be asleep.
But now, he seemed to have come to his senses, so he became more active.
This gave Uru a feeling that this dangerous ancient being was using his body to complete his rebirth bit by bit. When Bai Wei completely controlled his body, that would be the moment when he truly completed his rebirth (from Uru's perspective).
This naturally wouldn't make Uru happy. He wasn't a true disciple of Visas and certainly didn't want to see this old immortal thing come back to life.
Fortunately, Uru was not completely without means of response. This Som City was equally dangerous to him and Visas. Once he realized that Visas really wanted to use his body to reborn, he would immediately self-destruct and contact Bishop Corey, and then he could take Visas with him to die.
Although the threat of "I won't let you have a good life even if I die" is not very reliable, it is better than nothing. And from a certain perspective, it is still quite useful. At least it can make Uru feel more at ease.
"So what should I do today?" Ulu asked in his heart, "You don't want me to stay in the hotel for another day, do you? What about the truth you want to show me?"
"Of course." Bai Wei was well aware of Wu Lu's thoughts, but he didn't care. "I said, I will let you see it with your own eyes. If you have rested enough, you can set off now."
"If I don't end my symbiosis with you, a monster, sooner rather than later, I won't have any real rest."
After saying this, Ulu began to pack up and prepare to go out.
Then, he heard Bai Wei's leisurely voice: "Ulu, I hope you didn't make a mistake."
Ulu paused: "What?"
"I said, I want to see what a guy like you will become when he has power. This is a very interesting thing for me, just like watching a pet, do you understand? So I can still understand that a pet is a little willful and a little rebellious sometimes." Bai Wei's words were light, but Uru could feel that the tone was getting colder and colder. "But if I feel that you have crossed that line, such as showing your fangs to me, or barking too loudly and making me feel disrespected, then I don't mind... killing you in advance, do you understand?"
At this moment, Ulu felt a chill running through his whole body, causing him to shiver uncontrollably. The strong sense of uneasiness in his heart seemed to remind him what he was facing.
Only then did he realize how outrageous his words had been.
He broke out in a cold sweat instantly, and he reacted subconsciously: "I'm sorry, Master Visas..."
But the last bit of dignity stood out at this moment, forcing him to not finish saying the last honorific.
But at this moment, Bai Wei had already withdrawn the overwhelming pressure and returned to his previous joking tone: "Ah, there is no need for honorifics. They didn't use honorifics with me a long time ago. Of course, if you insist on using it, I won't stop you."
Feeling the pressure fading away, Ulu also realized that his whole body was soaked in cold sweat. He pursed his lips tightly, and in the end said nothing. He packed up his things and went out.
When he arrived at the counter, he saw the proprietress coughing and Leah cleaning with a broom.
When she saw Ulu, Leah subconsciously wanted to jump up and say hello, but under the gaze of the proprietress, she bowed obediently: "Good morning, sir."
The proprietress then revealed a satisfied expression, and then turned to look at Ulu with an apologetic look in her eyes: "I'm sorry, sir, I should have prepared breakfast for you, but my health is really not very good, and this child hasn't learned yet..."
Leah immediately raised her head and said seriously, "Don't worry, sir. I will learn it right away. Please stay for a few more days."
Faced with such enthusiastic people, Ulu felt a little unnatural. He just nodded and was about to go out.
Then he heard the boss's wife say behind him: "Ah, sir, later, Liaolia and I will go to the church to see a doctor. We will be away all day, but don't worry, we will be back in the evening."
Ulu turned around, glanced at the proprietress who was trying to cheer herself up and Leah who was pretending to be a lady, said "hmm", and went out.
Then, under Bai Wei's instructions, he came to a small church west of Som City.
In the city of Somme, in addition to the cathedral itself, there are hundreds of small churches like this one, which provide medical treatment, answer questions and provide services to believers.
The priests of these small churches also need to pass an assessment before entering.
Wulu found such a church. After entering, he found that there were quite a lot of people. So he found a seat by the side and sat down. At the same time, he asked Bai Wei in his heart: "What are you going to show me here?"
Bai Wei asked, "How much of the Rhine Covenant can you recite?"
Ulu's expression suddenly became strange: "Why do you ask this? Of course I can recite them all."
"Oh?" Bai Wei pretended to be surprised. "You used to memorize it only when you were facing an exam, right? After so many years, are you still able to memorize it?"
Ulu didn't know whether Bai Wei really didn't know or was pretending, but he still explained in a deep voice: "The Rhine Covenant is a product of the divinity of the God of the Rhine. As long as you can truly understand and memorize it once, you will never forget it again."
"Really? Then tell me about the Rhine Covenant.
Ulu's brows immediately frowned: "Are you kidding me?"
Bai Wei said calmly: "I'm just testing you."
Ulu took a deep breath, but still recited it obediently.
"That's great that you actually remembered it."
"...You also know the contents of the Rhine Covenant?"
"Nonsense, of course I don't know. I'm not a believer of your Rhine."
Uru: “…”
He wanted to lose his temper, but he didn't dare.
"So, being able to recite this book by heart is a standard requirement for you priests, right?" Bai Wei asked again.
"Of course." Uru said, "At least... it is the standard for a priest who can pass the assessment."
"In that case..." Bai Wei raised his middle finger and pointed at the church priest who was walking towards them, "Then you can test him."
Ulu frowned again. He didn't understand Bai Wei's intention, but he didn't have time to think about it. The priest who looked about the same age as him had already walked up to him.
"My dear believer, what can I do for you?" the priest said with a smile.
Wulu took a deep breath. Although he didn't know why, he decided to do as Bai Wei said: "You know that the Rhine Covenant
Then, he saw the priest's smile gradually disappear, and what was revealed in his cloudy pupils was not wisdom, but clear confusion.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 45 Forty-five So what?
When seeing the other person's clear and confused eyes, Ulu's eyes widened little by little.
Because he felt that this should be a question that couldn't be simpler. For the priests of the Rhine, at least for the priests in the city of Somme, the "Rhine Covenant" should have been engraved in their minds long ago. Any one of the questions should be as simple as "Have you eaten today?"
But why couldn't he answer? !
Didn't you hear it clearly?
Did I not make it clear?
Wu Lu still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. He said in a deep voice, "Did I not explain it clearly enough? Then I'll say it again. I want to ask you about the seventh chapter of the Rhine Covenant..."
"Ah, wait." The priest raised his hand to stop Uru, "My believer, I heard your question clearly. But I am curious, why do you want to know the content of the Rhine Covenant?"
Uru was silent for a while and then said, "Because I also want to be a priest. I want to engrave everything about the Lord in my heart."
"Is that so?" The priest smiled. "Since you are so pious, I can indeed explain it to you. The Rhine Covenant is my Lord..."
"I know what the Rhine Covenant is." Uru interrupted the priest and looked him straight in the eye. "I just want to know,
"I see." The priest showed his "I understand" expression again, "Then please wait here for a moment. I'll go to the back to get a sample book."
Having said that, the priest turned around and was about to leave, but Uru grabbed his hand.
"Why do you need a book?" Ulu seemed to be trying to suppress his inner excitement. "Shouldn't you just memorize it? Why does the priest need a book when he preaches?"
The priest whose hand was held looked at Ulu with a strange and puzzled look: "Why don't you need a book?"
Why don't you need books?!
Uru almost questioned, but he realized that saying so would very likely expose his identity, so he held back and just said, "I heard that it is difficult to become a priest in Somme City, and that you need to memorize the entire Rhine Covenant. I don't know if this is true."
The priest immediately showed an expression of "I understand again" and said with a smile: "It seems that you also want to join the arms of my Lord, otherwise you would not understand so well."
Uru just said "hmm" and asked again: "So the rumor is true? Do I need to memorize the entire Rhine Covenant?"
"Ah, well," the priest smiled and stroked his beard, "it is indeed necessary."
Hearing this answer, Ulu subconsciously raised his eyebrows. He thought that the priest would not admit it, or that the previous rules had been cancelled long ago: "Then you..."
"I was able to memorize it at the beginning." The priest sighed as he spoke. "It is not an easy thing to memorize all the words of the Lord. I don't know how I did it at the beginning. Maybe it was because of my piety to the Lord. I didn't think it was difficult at that time. But now, more than ten years have passed. Although I am still pious to the Lord, I am still distracted by many mundane matters. So now I can't memorize all the words of the Lord like before, but this does not mean that I am not pious to the Lord. In fact, for the Lord... uh, believer, where are you going? I haven't finished speaking yet."
Ulu couldn't listen any more.
Lies, lies, all lies!
There was no way Ulu could convince himself to stay in front of that guy who was talking nonsense for even one more second.
How could the contents of the Rhine Covenant be forgotten?! Those are the words of the God of the Rhine, and they carry divine power. As long as you understand and remember them, you will never forget them in your lifetime.
Even that old asshole Luggie can carry it!
Uru simply could not forget that more than ten years ago, when Lugi made him stand naked on the table and recite the "Rhine Covenant", he could clearly point out every mistake he made and give him "punishments". Uru could not forget these "punishments" even now, and there were still these marks on his body.
...But that guy insisted that he didn't remember, so there was only one possibility, he had never memorized it at all!
The priest of Somme couldn't memorize the Rhine Covenant, so how did he pass the test? !
When Ulu thought of this, he felt a chill running down his bones. Even the sunlight he felt after walking out of the church did not warm his body at all.
But this also made him realize that Bai Wei wanted him to come here to see something.
Since the priest spoke just now until now, Bai Wei has remained silent, but his silence seems like the biggest mockery.
Ulu took a deep breath and murmured softly, "Maybe it's just an isolated case."
I don’t know whether he was talking to myself or Bai Wei.
Bai Wei still did not respond, but Ulu seemed to hear a sneer from deep in his heart.
Ulu had no way to explain further, so he went to the next church.
