Chapter 114 Bait Jedi had actually brought the gold with him, but of course he had to pretend that there was still a way to go before the terms were settled, and he didn't want Garfield to know that he had the Space Ring with him.
As long as Althea asks her grandfather, she has always been invincible.
What's more, one of the people who will be invited to live in the house this time is Picasso's sister, and the other is Jady Thackhar, who Garfield Sr. intends to woo.
By the time they had left, the old steward of the Garfield family had ordered the servants to follow them in a wagon, to bring back their belongings, and to arrange a lodging for them at Garfield's house.
Althea believed Sallyest's lies and arranged the rooms of the two to be very close to each other, just hoping that Sallyster could take care of her sweetheart, but she and Sally were spending more time together at the moment.
Because Jedi had just checked in and had just finished bathing, he was pulled out by Picasso to meet Mr.
Caniery.
Little Garfield, as the head of the knights, naturally had to accompany him, although he had a cowardly personality, but he was very talkative, and very kind, and the three of them traveled all the way, chatting very happily.
Garnier is one of the only three remaining paladins of the Goddess of Hope, with a high status, and he is also a great nobleman, and he has a close personal relationship with Garfield.
Therefore, the butler invited the three of them in without informing them.
Canire's home looks very old, as soon as you enter the courtyard gate, there is a group of sculptures in the center of the pool, due to the age, the top is crawling with vines, and the stone of the sculpture has been eroded by wind and rain and has long changed color, and it is no longer clear what kind of statue it is.
The trail is planted with grapes, the vine stalks are crawling all over the shelves, and the dense clusters of grapes are dotted with branches, heavy, and fully ripe.
The trail skirts the main complex and leads to a small courtyard nestled in a slender bamboo forest.
The moonlight is like water, and the bamboo shadow is like a fairyland.
The butler leaned over and smiled: "Captain Garfield, you are not an outsider, so please come in."
The old man is in the courtyard. ” "Okay" Head Garfield nodded, watched the butler leave, then smiled and waved his hand to the two, and said, "Please come with me, Uncle Caniri likes to live in quiet places."
In our Blood Rose Knights, Uncle Caniret is one of the best swordsmen.
Back then, I used to practice swordsmanship with him. ” He pushed open the fence door and shrugged, "However, Uncle Canirie's swordsmanship is fierce and fierce, and he doesn't suit my style, oh, please come in" Picasso was the first to enter and said: "Is that so, Uncle Garfield, I have met Mr.
Garnier a few times, I didn't realize that he is such a powerful old man, could it be that the old man is less sharp, or is it anti-simple and true, I always feel uh, where should I go?"
The courtyard was still planted with bamboo, and in the tall bamboo forest, two thin paths went around one side, and Picasso walked to the bamboo forest and suddenly turned around and asked.
At the moment when he turned around, there was a sound in the bamboo forest, and a sharp sword came out through the forest, flashing against his cheek, and the sword qi was cold, and the sword momentum was really incomparable.
Picasso screamed, "Oops, ay, ay", and immediately jumped away like a rabbit, and his face turned pale with fright.
If he hadn't happened to turn his head and ask, the time was just right, and this sword would have pierced his head directly.
The path was not too wide, only allowing the two of them to walk side by side, and just now he walked in front, behind him was Jedi, and Garfield was on the side, Picasso flashed away at once, and the sword light flashed like lightning, and stabbed straight at Jedi's face.
Jedi immediately retreated, and with a "bang", the fence door squeaked and swayed, and a black shadow had rushed out of the yard with a strong wind.
"It really scared me to death."
Picasso's little face turned pale and patted his chest.
The head of the regiment Garfield couldn't help frowning, and before he could speak, Picasso shouted in shock: "Catch the assassin, catch the assassin, catch the assassin, catch it."
Captain Garfield covered his mouth and said hurriedly: "What are you shouting, if there is an assassin here who dares to come, that person must be Uncle Canirie." ” "Paladin Mr.
Carnirie, what is he doing?"
"Uh, uncle is probably practicing swords" "You should let us put on our full body armor and come back," Picasso complained, not forgetting to comb his hair with his fingers and scrape the cold sweat on his forehead to maintain his demeanor.
"This is the future grandson-in-law that my father has been optimistic about when he has recently taught himself," Mr.
Garfield, the father-in-law-to-be, couldn't help but be silent Jedi retreated quickly, and the sword stabbed faster, like a shadow, so that he never had time to draw his sword.
Jedi suddenly struck, his two fingers together like knives, and slashed down in the air.
Under the moonlight, his palm suddenly glowed with a faint golden glow, and the finger seemed to have struck the blade of the sword, and it seemed to be more than two inches apart.
Hearing a "ding" sound, the sword that had been stabbing in front of him suddenly broke inch by inch.
"Dare to destroy my sword" An old voice shouted, and the free hand suddenly pointed like a sword, pointing forward, and a pale golden light more than two feet long suddenly shot out from the tip of his finger, condensing into a finger sword that was like a substance, still stabbing at his face.
At the same time, the two of them still retreated and advanced one later, as fast as lightning.
Outside the courtyard was a bamboo forest, and Jedi jumped backwards, hitting the bamboo with a rattling sound, and the speed did not decrease at all, as if he was plowing a path in the bamboo forest.
The man seized the opportunity and always grasped it tightly, but he did not give him a chance to draw his sword.
It was the first time that Jedi had encountered such a martial arts master, the warrior was really the king of close combat, he had lost the opportunity, and if he was not careful, he would be stabbed in the body by the man with a finger sword condensed by fighting spirit.
Jedi sneered and raised his right palm again, and at the same time, the part above his shoulder and neck suddenly seemed to be enveloped in a raging flame.
The golden flame enveloped his entire upper body, rising more than two feet high, flickering in the air, and at that moment a round mirror-smooth thing appeared in his hand.
There are layers of ripples on the surface of the golden light mirror, which is the manifestation of the continuous output of fighting energy, condensing on the surface of the body to maintain the shape of the shield.
The finger sword hit the light mirror, and with a bang, the two turned into star-like light and dust, and by this shock, the person who had been chasing after him flipped upside down in the air, and landed lightly and skillfully on a bamboo pole, gently rising and falling with the slender bamboo path.

Jedi was hit by a huge force, but he looked much more embarrassed than him, Jedi suddenly seemed to double the speed of his retreat, and the Karala broke a piece of bamboo, and it was crashing into a statue more than a man tall on the forest path, it was a warrior figurine, and there was a place for the lantern on its body, which was both a decoration and a lighthouse, and was hit by his back, and the samurai stone figurine was torn apart with a bang, and smashed into the distance.
"Are you Mr.
Canniery?"
asked Jeddy, who seemed to be inferior, gasping and standing still, politely.
"Haha, the old man heard that you defeated Karthas, and he had an itch for a while, so he learned from each other.
Well, yes, it's really good, although it's not as good as the old man, but there are only a handful of young people who have such superb fighting kung fu in the world. ” The black shadow is not high, it can be seen that it is very thin, the breeze is blowing, the thin bamboo path gently undulating, and his body is like a feather up and down with the undulation, as if nothing.
Jedi put his mind at ease, although the goddess Daji had taught him how to simulate his divine power to fight qi, but this old guy in front of him was a master who was really proficient in fighting qi, and it was unclear whether he could mix it up in front of him.
Now listening to him say this, a big rock has finally fallen to the ground.
Jedi smiled happily: "Don't dare, Mr.
Caniri's fighting spirit has been perfected, fortunately, your subordinates have shown mercy, and I have done my best to barely dissolve this sword." ” "Hahahaha," Caniri laughed, and he fell like a leaf in front of Jedi with the breeze.
I could see it clearly in the moonlight, and sure enough, it was Caniri who had a few encounters with Jedi.
He gladly glanced at Jedi and said with a smile: "I have met Mr.
Jedi a few times, and I always thought that you were just an outstanding businessman, and I never thought that you would have such a martial art.
Come, come to my lodgings and talk again. ” The two returned to his lodgings, where Captain Garfield and Picasso were standing in front of the door, which was open and brightly lit, and on the left was a little Gaffe, with a slightly bloated beard with two curved and upturned beards, and on the right was a slender Picasso knight.
The light gilded his shiny hair, which was so neat and shiny that it looked like a fly could not stand.
Garnier was the initial contact between the Goddess of Hope and Jedi, while Picasso was the introducer for both parties.
But the first few times they met, Caniri was dressed as a nobleman, and the two sides were talking about deals.
But this time it was different, Jedi had just done them a great favor as a follower of the Cult of Hope, and the business relationship between the two sides had also improved, and they became a little closer to each other.
Jedi returned the Paladin's Medal, and the two sides struck up a conversation for a while, and Caniri turned around on Jedi's personal future.
His face was grim and he asked, "Now that Mr.
Jedi is no longer allowed in the Duchy of Normans, I don't know what he plans for the future."
Jedi tried every possible way to reach out to the kingdom of Apia in the hope of taking advantage of the biggest difference between Apia and Butani: religious beliefs and stirring up a dispute between the two countries.
At the same time, he took advantage of the opportunity to solve the major economic difficulties of Appia, and spent money to buy a noble title, so that he could own his own castle and territory, and then raise private soldiers.
These ideas were already on the horizon, and when he visited Mr.
Garfield in the afternoon, he had generously promised to fulfill them as soon as he brought in the gold.
So when Caniri asked, Jedi gladly said that he wanted to settle in Appia and get a knighthood.
Caniri tapped his fingers lightly on the tabletop, muttered for a long time, suddenly stared at him, and smiled: "Mr.
Jedi is young and promising, and in just over two years in the Norman Duchy, he has risen to prominence and become a prominent political figure.
Are you still so young, do you really intend to get a fief and be an idle nobleman from now on?"
As soon as Jedi heard what he said, he hurriedly asked, "What advice does Mr.
Caniri have?"
"There is no such thing as a paradise in this world.
Especially in Butani, there are now two major sects in the Appia region and the Butani region, the Goddess of Hope and the Bright Holy Sect, and the two sides are fighting for believers and interests, and the disputes and conflicts between each other should also be experienced by you in the suburbs of the city today.
Mr.
Jedi grew up in the mountains, and as soon as he arrived in Baptiste he worked as a goldsmith and had no faith.
If you settle in Apia, a great nobleman like you, who owns his own castles, domains, and vassals, will inevitably be the target of both sides.
You have had a conflict with one of the Deputy Leaders of the Knights of the Holy Order of Light today, and I am afraid it will be difficult to have a pleasant relationship with them.
For us, we now have a successful and close relationship, and today you have helped me teach in the suburbs, and if we get closer, it will be good for both you and me. ” "Are you saying that I believe in the Goddess of Hope Sect?"
Jedi was stunned, he just wanted to establish a close relationship with the Sect, and then provoke the already tense relationship between them and the Light Holy Sect, and he didn't expect to have the opportunity to join the Sect at all.
A smile appeared on Carnirie's thin face: "Your friend Picasso is a devout believer in my teaching, and I think he is not ignorant of my teaching, Mr.
Jedi.
Faith in the goddess of hope will give your soul sustenance and refuge.
Personally, once you join the Cult of Hope, you will have the support and help of all your fellow believers, so that you will be much safer. ” "Do you want to join the Goddess of Hope Cult?"
Jedi couldn't help but move.
During his time in the Norman Duchy, he always stood in the shadows of the two sides of the conflict, using the help of one side and the competing interests of the two sides to provoke a war between them.

Now when I come to Apia, if I am a bystander, I am afraid that the scope of my intervention in religious affairs is limited, and the religious atmosphere here is too strong, and once you are a free person, you are likely to become the target of public criticism.
But all this was due to his temporary help to the sect, and he had not discussed it beforehand, and he was really hesitant to seize this opportunity.
Jedi couldn't help but look at Picasso, and he couldn't help but startle him at the sight.
Picasso really deserves to be a high-level disciple who grew up under the scolding of his high-IQ liar sister and was beaten by him.
He is very good at entering the play, and at this time he is very deep in the play, and his eyes are completely the eyes of a fanatical religious person.
"I am very much in favor of the suggestion of the Venerable Knight Garnier, to whom I have repeatedly preached the doctrine of my religion, and that you and I will be not only friends, but brothers.
Unfortunately, I have not yet returned to the bosom of the Goddess, I have not heard the Gospel of the Goddess, and as a wandering knight, I cannot propose anything to you.
Now, it's time, dear Jedi, join the Cult of Hope, and under the light of the goddess, all difficulties will be solved" Picasso showed the expression and tone of the devout disciple very realistically, and the corners of his mouth even twitched nervously, which was a sign of uncontrollable excitement.
But Jedi suspects that he is smiling too hard.
"Picasso is right, you are all young and promising young people, you should have the courage to challenge, shoulder some heavier responsibilities, glory and wealth belong to those who have the courage to take responsibility, only outstanding people are qualified to stand in prominent positions."
Caniri looked at Picasso admiring the tunnel.
"Mr.
Jedey, don't think that this is an old man's whim, in fact I have seriously discussed it with my two other old companions and the Grand Priest Garfield this afternoon.
If you are willing to become a knight of the glorious Goddess of Hope, then you and Picasso will also serve as the deputy head of the Knights of the Blood Rose, and take on the responsibility of revitalizing the Goddess of Hope. ” He looked at Picasso, his old face was kind like a blooming chrysanthemum: "The high priest Garfield has too many family affairs, in order to let the high priest concentrate on teaching affairs, as his only son, little Garfield has to take care of quite a lot of family affairs."
Therefore, you two deputy commanders are the actual rulers of the Blood Rose Knights. ” "What" Picasso's jaw "clicked" and fell.
Seeing Picasso's expression of suddenly falling into dementia, the corners of Jedi's mouth began to twitch nervously:
