Whether Fang Qiuling is a disaster star is unknown, but the information he provides is very important.

At the time of the invasion of the orcs and the infestation of the undead, a sacrificial vessel of the ancient gods suddenly appeared, an "evil sacrificial vessel that summons the souls of the dead" brought by the orcs. It's a coincidence, it's incredible, it's a coincidence. The word "conspiracy" can be explained that it is written in front of every insider's eyes.

An accidental discovery silences everyone, and the caravan ends the day's journey in silence.

The location for the night camp is the same place where you first stepped into the Morey Trail, not far from the southern exit of the Morey Trail. Peel aside the fallen leaves, and you can still find the charred black marks left by the campfire during the previous camping.

"Mr. Norn, Mr. Hadner. Although what has been learned so far can confirm that the two are innocent, the previous battle with the undead side by side also proved the bravery of the two. However, this is an extraordinary time, so please don't leave the sight of the two of you at will. ”

Beside the campfire, Lily said to Fang Qiuling and Old Tom with a solemn face.

"Okay, I'll just lie here."

Old Tom leaned against the box with his glass in his arms. The box was dragged from the side, and inside was a blanket for keeping out the cold.

Fang Qiuling also nodded: "Okay...... Shino, don't run around, come and sit down. ”

As he spoke, Fang Qiuling took Shino out from behind him and asked her to sit in a row by the campfire.

"Lady Lily, now you're ...... Spy on people, right? ”

Lily's intentions were too obvious to guess.

"Yes, that's right." Lily didn't shy away from admitting it, with a businesslike attitude, "Please don't embarrass me." ”

"Well, no problem. It won't bother you. ”

Fang Qiuling shrugged his shoulders, his face full of indifference. This matter has a certain relationship with him, but it has little to do with it, it can be explained clearly, and he is not afraid at all. If the secret dagger is not handed over, and it is still on the body, then the problem is relatively big - harboring the "remnants of the previous dynasty", a felony!

Lady Moghley showed trust in him and Tom Sr., as both had passed the lie identification. The spell was displayed with a white glow throughout the spell, which meant that everything Fang Qiuling and Old Tom said was the truth. However, telling the truth does not mean that there is no "lying", and passing the lie identification does not mean that what the two of them said is the truth. Because speaking can process facts through linguistic techniques such as "explicitly misleading" or "partially true". Everything that is said is true, but if the truth is put together in a different order, or if the truth is placed in a specific linguistic context, the meaning will be diametrically opposed to the actual situation. Although Ms. Moghley did not understand this "skill of language" very well, as a veteran paladin, she had experience in this area. So she also has reservations about Fang Qiu Ling and Old Tom.

On one side were ascetic monks in the temple, and on the other side were small nobles and respected old instructors from other places. In terms of social status, the two sides are basically equal. However, from the perspective of the temple, it must be that the ascetic is slightly higher. After all, the priority is to believe in one's own people, not to trust outsiders.

- Summarize objectively.

The little nobleman in front of him inadvertently obtained a dagger. The dagger is made of bone, the guard has an odd shape, and the grip has dark red lines. Because of its strange shape and disturbing dark red veins, the nobleman speculated that the dagger was a sacrificial artifact and belonged to some fallen evil god.

The sacrificial vessels of the ancient gods, which is actually a rather troublesome thing. If it is clearly a sacrificial vessel of an evil god, then it is incumbent upon Notos, the god of wind, as a member of the camp of the good gods, to destroy it. However, if this sacrificial vessel belongs to a fallen good deity, it is debatable how to deal with it.

Why destroy the sacrificial vessels of the evil gods? Because the sacrificial vessels of the evil gods have the power to capture people's hearts, the bearer will unknowingly fall and gradually become a member of the evil spirit. In the process of the Fall, the ambition of the bearer will also grow, and corpses will be everywhere in his place, and large-scale blood sacrifices abound. As a member of the camp of the good gods, this is intolerable.

And the sacrificial vessel left by the good god Fall Ouhu, this kind of thing can be described as a hot potato. Destroy it directly, as a god in the same camp of goodness, this act itself represents "unkindness", and it is easy to leave a tongue; Keep it for yourself, the gods who have taken over the fallen good god priesthood will be obviously unhappy, is this planning to seize the priesthood or is it ready to support the gods? Or is there something else going on? You must know that even if it is the same camp, there are contradictions and conflicts between the good gods and the good gods. doctrinal disputes, contests of believers, contests of resources, and the right to preach...... The camp of the good gods said that it was monolithic, and it was obviously impossible. So I had to use a more compromise method - sealing.

The meaning of the seal is: I declare that I waive the right to use, but at the same time I will not allow anyone else to use it!

In order to ensure that they are not corrupted by the sacrificial vessel, and do not want the sacrificial vessel to fall into the hands of others and cause disaster. The nobleman intended to hand over the dagger to the temple. At this time, he happened to meet an ascetic, who was still an acquaintance of his companions, so he handed it over without any worries. The ascetic took the sacrificial vessel, saying that it was indeed an evil sacrificial vessel and that it needed to be destroyed as soon as possible.

At this point, it has actually nothing to do with this nobleman. The sacrificial vessel was also handed over, and he also joined the raid party and left the place of the incident. However, after a few days, the nobleman suddenly realized that the sacrificial vessel that was supposed to be destroyed did not seem to have been destroyed. Whether it was destroyed or not, there is actually no conclusion at present. But judging from the current news, there should be none. This discovery made the nobleman very uneasy, and he immediately reported it to the temple along with his companions at the time.

If the whole thing is indeed as the nobleman said, that is, what Fang Qiuling said, and the corroboration of the companions, that is, the addition of old Tom, then the other party to the incident, that is, Brother Charlton, must be in question.

But there are still doubts in the incident. The biggest doubt is whether this bone dagger, which was recognized by Fang Qiuling as an "evil sacrificial weapon that summons the souls of the dead" and was also recognized as an "evil sacrificial weapon" by Brother Charlton, is "evil" as the two of them believed. According to Fang Qiuling's description, which is the only one I've seen here so far, this ancient god's sacrificial vessel is a strange-looking dagger, which is indeed close to the style of a certain evil ancient god. However, close is close, and it is useless to make conclusions before it is confirmed. If it weren't evil, then everything would be groundless and nerve-wracking. Of course, it's best to be nervous. But if it's really evil, then there's a big problem here!

What was Brother Charlton's purpose in hiding the evil sacrificial vessels? As an old man who had been practicing penance in the temple for more than ten years, why would he do such a thing? If he did, what good would it do him?

Of course, this matter can't be listened to Fang Qiuling's side, after all, he is a nobleman. The nobles' favorite thing to do is all kinds of calculations, even if there is no "moisture" in what Fang Qiuling said at the moment, and he has passed the identification of lies, but it is obviously impossible to take down the ascetic cultivators who have been doing their best for the temple for many years with just a few words. Relevant investigation and evidence collection are indispensable.

If this is placed in the present world, the process of investigation is not surprisingly to obtain video footage and look for eyewitnesses. In addition, directly inviting the parties to the bureau to "drink tea" is also a necessary and indispensable process. Or more simply, go straight to the polygraph when you "drink tea". Be lenient in confession, strict in resisting!

At the same time, the present world is a world governed by the rule of law. Generally, the "principle of presumption of innocence" is followed: if the defendant's guilt cannot be proved by conclusive and sufficient evidence, and the court cannot ascertain the facts of the defendant's guilt after trial and supplementary investigation, then the defendant can only be found not guilty. All aspects are people-oriented, and the goal is not to wronged a good person, nor to let go of a bad person.

And in Elune, it's not so tedious. Because Elune follows the "rule of man" and "theocracy". It doesn't matter what the evidence is.

What is "rule by man"? It's all up to the judge. The judge said that whatever it is, the judge will never cut off the foot if he is willing to pronounce the sentence, the judge will release him on the spot if he says he is not guilty, and France will not hit the board if he wants to pay a fine. It is entirely up to the subjective will of the judge. As for whether the judge's decision was right or wrong, what about it...... In general, the judge with the highest "adjudication power" is usually the local lord himself. The lords all said that they were guilty, and who was not open-eyed raised objections? As for the conflict between the lord and the lord, just find a higher lord. Or just go straight to the king.

What is "theocracy"? That is, the judgment is carried out by the gods, and it is more common in kingdoms that give paladins jurisdiction. The Kingdom of Karthas is one of them. The Kingdom of Karthas is a kingdom that worships the god of wind, Notos, and the paladins of Notos have the right to directly judge civilians in the Kingdom of Karthas. Young paladins often choose to use magic techniques, such as lie identification, to determine right from wrong. Experienced paladins will enter their own experience on the basis of divine magic, such as skillful interrogation. And the ultimate means of "theocracy" is undoubtedly séance, in which the gods directly descend into the world to judge. The gods know everything, they know everything, and they don't care about the world.

Fang Qiuling's "report" to Brother Charlton involved the temple and the ancient gods, which was more sensitive. If you look for Count Diharus, it is estimated that Lord Earl will also push three or four times. Get all the parties together, stuff them into the temple, and directly get a "pre-god ruling" to end!

Of course, pre-judgment is not something that can be played casually. It is true that the gods know everything and know everything, but they have to bother the gods to take care of everything, and even the gods will certainly not be able to control it. Trivial things, or inconsequential things, don't bother the gods and his old man. Don't rule at that time, God can throw a few down, how many you want, enough!

At present, this matter involves the sacrificial vessels of the ancient gods, and the god of wind, Notos, should not ignore it. It was precisely because he knew that the temple must have a way to "return his innocence", so Fang Qiuling was quite calm.

As for whether Notos, the god of wind, will protect his followers. In other things, the cover-up is also cover-up. It involves the sacrifice of the ancient gods, and it is very likely that it is still the sacrifice of the evil ancient gods, and it is absolutely impossible to cover it. In order to show his own position, sending down divine punishment and chopping this bastard believer to death is the lightest punishment!

- Even dare to accept the sacrificial vessels of the evil gods, Notos, are you not going to mix in the camp of the good gods!

Oh, and by the way, there's also a paladin who is the goddess of love, Shuna. Although not intended, Lily is objectively already a member of the "jury". If Notos is unjust, Lady Firehair will invite the other gods to come and see the joke. You must know that the relationship between the god of love and Shuna is very good, and there are many admirers of her in the camp of the evil god!

The body is not afraid of the shadow slanting, that's true, but when it's time to stammer, you have to stammer. Whether it is Notos, the god of wind, or Shuna, the god of love, it is definitely not a loss to have a good relationship.

So not long after sitting down by the campfire, Fang Qiuling secretly began to act.

- Daddy, I'll be out of the Morey Trail tomorrow. How about a celebratory drink?

- Have a drink? No, no, no!

- What, Daddy, you've been drinking lately?

- At least three drinks! Quick, hand over the cup!

- Uh, okay. Take it.

The endless wine glass was handed over. Now that the endless wine glass has been handed over, don't keep Jasmine's endless ice cream bag as well, and make Shino happy.

Don't hide the ham sausage, take it out and roast it on the fire! There are also a few canned foods, canned luncheon meat, mixed mixed meat stir-fried canned food, and canned diced pork with sauce......

Which is dehydrated rice or dehydrated noodles? Hum! Only children do multiple-choice questions, and adults choose to do it!

Take another soup packet out, boil a pot of water, and make a steaming bowl of seaweed egg skin soup!

- After a few days of hard work, I had a good meal today!

After a while, the camp was filled with a meaty smell that was different from the usual salted and cured meat.

- Miss Lily, I have some special desserts here, would you be interested in commenting on them?

- Okay, good!

Chocolate, wafers, fruit gummies, candied fruits...... Uh, I don't know if I didn't look for it, but I didn't expect the supplies to be stuffed with so many messy snacks. Is this a food supply for survival in another world, or a snack gift package for elementary school students on a spring outing?

Girls have a sweet tooth, especially young girls. Lily was unknowingly captured by the "sugar-coated cannonball......

It's normal to take out a little more food and give it to the people around you to taste, right?

Sharing food isn't considered a bribe, right?

Accidentally, a few paladins got a little too much delicious food in front of them...... Uh, the paladins are more powerful, and it is natural to have a little more, what's the problem?

It's not interesting, just celebrate and have a good meal. No need to over-interpret.

Yes, no need to over-interpret!
