"Aren't you curious at all" Sending away the two old men, Kean and Margaret, Lina took Pannis's arm and slowly wandered in Denya's sanctuary, the two were silent all the way, until more than ten minutes later, Lina finally couldn't help but ask, "Don't you want to know where I want you to accompany me?"

"Where else but the library. Pannis rolled his eyes, pouted and said, "Do you still need to think about it?"

"Well, it seems like it's a good guess. Lina lowered her head and said helplessly: "Indeed, I want to go back to the old library to see, it can be regarded as my other home, although it has been burned down, but I heard Aunt Margaret say that no other buildings have been built there over the years, and it is still the same, so I want to go and see it again, you will accompany me." ”

"My pleasure. Pannis chuckled, "Is this a complete farewell to the past?"

"You've finally guessed wrong this time. Lina smiled brightly and stuck out her tongue mischievously: "Every minute of the past, whether sad or happy, is the most precious memory, and I am not ready to forget them, let alone say goodbye to them." I just want to go back this time and express my gratitude there, in my most painful and fearful time, it was it that accepted me and tolerated my Yiqiē, without it, there would be no current me, so I must say thank you to it, although it is just a building, and it is still burned out, but for me, it is still the same one. ”

"Maybe you're right. Pannis nodded and asked thoughtfully, "However, why don't you want to go directly, why are you still wandering in the Sanctuary and not ready to see it again?"

"No, I've been mentally prepared for it for a long time. Lina pointed ahead and said, "Turn around the building and you can see the area of the old library." Very open area. ”

Lina was right, bypassing a building in the way, she saw an open area, an open area of tens of thousands of square meters, and the ground was covered with weeds up to her knees, in the middle of the clearing. It's an abandoned building, or rather the remains of an abandoned building. The building is large, covering an area of thousands of square meters, but the entire building has collapsed, and it is impossible to see if there were ever higher floors. The building is in dilapidation, most of the walls have collapsed, the remains are covered with mud and moss, only a few walls are still standing, and the stone façade is blackened. It tells the ferocity and horror of the fire back then.

"Four years have passed, why haven't the ruins been cleaned up and reused yet" Pannis looked at the ruins of the building from a distance, and asked puzzledly: "Even if the space of this sanctuary of Deniya is large enough to use this land in a hurry, there is no need to keep such a pile of charred ruins, even if no new buildings are built, at least the ruins should be cleared in time, otherwise it will be so ugly." And isn't it dangerous if the wall collapses in case someone passes by?"

"Because there is no money. Lina's answer was straightforward and very simple: "It costs money to clean up the rubble." It costs money to dispose of the waste that is disposed of, but what the church lacks most is money. You should know that there are not many wealthy people who believe in our Lord, and the finances for the church, that is, to maintain the normal operation of the church, may still have a little surplus every year. But the surplus funds have to be used in more important places, so the progress of cleaning up the rubble is seriously delayed. This is normal in our church, which has been strapped for thousands of years. The last time the plan to renovate the entire Sanctuary was made more than five hundred and forty years ago, it has been going on intermittently, and it can only be advanced a little bit when you save enough money, so it has not been completed until today. ”

"It sounds like a history of blood and tears full of bitterness. Pannis gloated, "I think Catherine must have a very common language with your archbishop and the people who manage the finances of the church, so how about they share their experiences with the poor, I think it's a good idea, and she'll like it." ”

"I think she must have liked her weapons and fists better. Lina sighed and said helplessly: "Life is so precious, why can you always find all kinds of ways to seek the end of your life?" You say, after I go back, I will tell Sister Sù how about I am the same as you, I think this idea is good, you will definitely like it." ”

"I was wrong, please don't do that. Pannis's face immediately fell, and he pleaded, "I want to see the morning sun tomorrow morning, give me a chance, merciful Sage Lina." ”

"That's a lot of nonsense. Lina, who had untied the knot in her heart, was even full of disgusted eyes: "You wait for me here for a while, I'll take a closer look, as for the inside, I won't go in, on the one hand, it's not safe, on the other hand, I'm afraid it's also difficult to get in." ”

Pannis nodded, watching Lina leave his side and slowly approach the ruins in the distance. Standing on the edge of the ruins, the priest girl stretched out her hands, caressing the blackened broken wall, and stood motionless, not knowing what else to think in her heart. After a while, the girl finally began to move, and she began to move along the edge of the ruins, stopping and looking into the ruins every few steps, as if imagining reliving the days in this dark abandoned library. The girl's movements are very slow, and the stops are very frequent, and time slowly slips away in her constant stops and memories.

Pannis still stood far away, and did not walk over to disturb the priest girl who was immersed in his own world, he knew very well that the ten years spent in the library were memories of the girl herself, and she could only be left to herself to savor and savor the different feelings of two different mentalities, and no one else was qualified to insert it into it, no matter who it was. Therefore, Pannis did not hurry, nor did he urge, leaning against a tree with his hands on his chest, and waited patiently, as if he had turned into a sculpture.

Around the ruins, the road she walked was only a few hundred meters, but in just a few hundred meters, the girl walked for more than two hours, until she walked back to the starting point, Lina stood quietly in place for a while, and then slowly walked back to Pennis. Seeing Lina getting closer and closer, Pannis frowned slightly, and waited for the girl to come to her side before asking, "Katerina"

"Nope. The girl shook her head: "We are all here." "To be continued.
