Chapter 150 The Misty Town (27) Extra 2
In the past few days, Yan Jinyue has come to a profound understanding of the truth that things that appear beautiful on the outside and have a beautiful beginning are not so beautiful in reality, and can even be extremely painful.
Just like the candied haws, the sweetness of the hawthorn under the rock sugar may make your teeth sore, but because it is wrapped with a layer of sugar coating, it makes people relax their vigilance.
As an "attendant" who was personally delivered to the Holy Son by Divine Light, Yan Jinyue stole the show in the eyes of outsiders. Her businessman parents, Mr. and Mrs. Felix, were very happy when they came back. He hung it on his eyebrows, kissing her, hugging her, and praising her in various ways.
Mrs. Felix: "Oh, God bless me, my Audrey has actually chosen to be the attendant of the Holy Son. This is an honor for the whole family."
"This will be the most glorious history of our family!" Mr. Felix was also very excited and took out his collection of rum to have a drink with his beloved wife and the woman who made him proud.
Yan Jinyue took a sip and said, "She doesn't drink well. If she gets drunk, she won't be able to go to the shrine later."
The attendant of the Holy Son who was selected by the divine light needed to accompany the Holy Son to stay in the temple that night. She went home just to pack the things she needed.
And when she was packing her luggage, Felix and his wife stuffed everything into her luggage, wishing they could stuff the entire family's belongings into her.
"Audrey has too few dresses. I'd better go out and buy a few more for her." Mrs. Felix said sadly after packing twenty exquisite and beautiful dresses for her.
"Yes, she can only go home once a month..." Mr. Felix took out his small handkerchief to wipe his tears, and stuffed a few more gold coins into the bulging package.
Yan Jinyue finally stopped the couple from wanting to go out and do some shopping. It wasn't that she didn't want to...it was just that she was afraid that she would be too ostentatious compared to the other two attendants.
But she discovered that when the carriage arrived at the shrine, her large and small bags needed the help of several priests to carry them, while the other two young attendants could be said to be traveling lightly, and they were neat on their own, even without Felix and his wife. She is already arrogant enough to buy more things——
It's better to bring two more items.
Yan Jinyue regretted a little.
However, it was a wise choice to ask Mrs. Felix to bring her two less clothes. It would be a waste anyway. Because in the shrine, no other clothes are allowed, and you can only wear a uniform white monk's robe. The collar and belt are decorated with gold patterns, which is holy and dignified.
The daily task of their three attendants is to chant sutras, pray and bathe in divine grace with the Son in the morning, and to chant sutras, pray and bathe in divine grace with the Son in the evening. The most important thing is to go to class together!
The content of study includes but is not limited to astronomy and geography, history and humanities, war and military affairs, mechanical weapons, medical pharmaceuticals... and so on.
The Son of God needs to be well-read and have a large amount of rich knowledge in order to walk the world on behalf of the gods and teach and help believers in the world.
As his attendant, you have to learn the same knowledge as him, and there is even an assessment every week. If you fail the assessment, you will be punished - cleaning the temple.
Yan Jinyue thought it was nothing at first, just cleaning. But after she realized that the scope of the shrine was as big as three football fields, she cried and picked up the obscure pharmacology book and bit the bullet. I even lit up the lamp to review at night.
The last time she had this spirit of studying hard was during her college finals week, and the next time was during her 100-day sprint in her senior year of high school.
"Audrey, you haven't finished your detention homework today, have you?" A hand patted her shoulder, and Yan Jinyue turned to look at a young man with dark red hair who was smiling proudly.
His name was Andrew Wilson, one of the chosen squires. His appearance is not exquisite, and he still has some small freckles on his face, but his smile is very charming, with a bit of a naughty look, which is very attractive to little girls.
"Have you finished writing?" Yan Jinyue looked at him resentfully.
"Of course." Andrew smiled, "I was the second to finish writing, and the first was His Royal Highness the Son."
"Oh, then what are you talking about?" Yan Jinyue snorted, "It's not like His Royal Highness the Holy Son can write faster."
"Ah!" Andrew twitched his lips, "Who can be better than His Royal Highness the Holy Son? He is the wisdom given by the gods, and we are just mortals."
"Yes." Another voice echoed. Who can match the wisdom of His Highness the Holy Son. ”
A tall and elegant young man came over, with dazzling white skin, brown hair, and green eyes. He was as delicate as a girl. He wore black-rimmed glasses on his face, looking scholarly. He was another young attendant named Benjamin Thompson. He smiled faintly at Yan Jinyue: "The evening prayers will be held soon. If Audrey still can't finish her homework, she can do it tomorrow. Anyway, there is no astronomy tomorrow. Lesson.”
Yan Jinyue put down the quill, leaned back, and leaned on the back of the chair, with a look of despair on his face.
She didn't understand that they were all attendants of the Holy Son. Although they were not as good as His Highness the Holy Son, who had been given wisdom by the gods, these two young men were also extremely smart and could learn everything at once.
She was obviously a top student in elementary school before, but why was she made to look like a scumbag here?
"Don't you know Audrey? The attendants chosen by Shenguang for the Holy Son must be far better than ordinary people. They are the leaders among ordinary people in terms of intelligence and physical strength." Benjamin explained with a smile.
"Then I...?" Yan Jinyue pointed to herself, confused.
If this is the case, then why is she, a servant who was also chosen by the gods, completely different from them.
"Don't worry, some people may be late bloomers." Benjamin comforted.
Andrew also smiled and said: "Yes, Audrey must have a talent that is different from ordinary people when she was chosen. Maybe she hasn't shown it yet."
Yan Jinyue's eyes twitched and he chuckled: "I hope so."
She stood up, stretched, and walked with them to the place where they would pray for the night.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
In addition to the huge statue in the central square outside the church, there is also a scaled-down statue inside the shrine, right in the center of the main hall of the shrine.
When Yan Jinyue's three attendants passed by, the respectful and noble His Highness the Holy Son was already standing in front of the statue.
The man with silver hair and silver eyes wore a white robe with gold patterns, which made him even more holy and pure. The clear and gentle face is like the bright moon in the sky, so exquisite and perfect that it makes people feel as if he is a god.
"Sorry, Your Highness, we are late." The three of them said in unison.
"It's not time yet, so it's not considered late." The man's eyes lightly swept across the crowd, especially lingering on the girl's beautiful face for a moment, and then moved away without leaving any trace.
If the only thing that gave Yan Jinyue comfort in this painful life was the beautiful appearance of the Holy Son in front of him, which was extremely pleasing to the eye.
As long as you see her once, all your troubles will disappear.
However, except for the first day when he caught her and held her in his arms, she always felt that His Highness the Holy Son particularly disliked her.
Compared to the other two, he was always very cold towards her, spoke much less, and sometimes even deliberately avoided her.
This really made Yan Jinyue very sad.
So much so that when she prayed to the gods at night, she would absentmindedly wonder if she had done something wrong.
"You did do something wrong."
Suddenly, a pleasant voice appeared in her mind, smiling, slightly hoarse, and a bit bewitching.
But no one around spoke.
It was exactly the same as last time at the Holy Son's canonization ceremony, inexplicable auditory hallucinations.
