Chapter 299: The glory but the separation
Coming in, Gu You didn't expect that this place would be so different from the Notting City Spirit Hall.
I don’t know where Nightingale is, and I can’t just run around, let alone wait here. Gu You had no choice but to shamelessly stop a staff member who, although ordinary-looking, was wearing a Wuhundian uniform and gave off a warm feeling like a spring breeze.
The man was not angry when he was suddenly stopped. Looking at the embarrassed young man in front of him, he smiled and said, "Welcome to the Tiandou City Spirit Hall, is there anything I can do to help you?"
"Brother, this is the first time for us two brothers to come here. This time we come here to find someone."
"Find someone?"
If you are looking for someone, go to the bulletin board and post a missing person notice. Why are you coming to our Spirit Hall?
"Yes." Gu You nodded, "I'm looking for Sister Nightingale, she said she is here."
"Sister Nightingale? Here?" The man looked a little confused, as if Sister Nightingale had never been here before.
The man did not drive away the two guys who seemed to be looking for trouble, but just thought about it. This name is very strange, but it makes a strange impression. It always feels like it has been mentioned seriously somewhere before.
Nightingale Nightingale Nightingale. Nightingale? !
"Nightingale?!" The man raised his head suddenly, "Are you looking for Nightingale?!"
Gu You nodded, and saw that the kindness on the face of the man in front of him disappeared, revealing undisguised wariness and resistance. He glanced up and down at the two of them several times and said in a calm tone: "Come with me."
Gu You was confused and didn't know why this man's attitude suddenly turned 180 degrees.
Seeing that the man turned around and left without hesitation, Gu You and Tang San looked at each other and followed him quickly.
We walked in circles for nearly five minutes. Gu You felt a little tired when the man finally stopped in front of a door.
The door is huge and thick, and it is absolutely impossible for anyone without soul power to push it open. What is strange is that the door is covered with various human figures with wings on their backs, some fighting or embracing, with various postures and expressions.
Facing this strange door, the man acted as if he was used to it, and walked forward and knocked on the door without any hesitation.
Boom, boom, boom
After more than ten seconds, the people inside seemed to finally react, and an old and somewhat lazy voice said, "Come in."
Facing this voice, the man in front of the door did not dare to slack off at all, and bowed vigorously, "Yes, Your Majesty Bishop."
rumble rumble
With veins popping out in his arms, the man pushed the door open with all his strength. Colorful dazzling lights come towards you. After walking through the door and avoiding the light, Gu You finally saw the room clearly.
Angel, angel, angel.
Everything you see is an angel. There are statues of angels in various postures stacked in the corner, and the paintings hanging on the walls are also various paintings related to angels.
These are nothing, what is really shocking is the huge floor-to-ceiling window facing the door.
The sun gradually sets in the west, and the mild spring sunshine passes through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the colorful glass forms a huge angel. The figure of an angel with wings on its back shines brightly in the sunlight. The wings stretched out and enveloped the entire room.
There is a table in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and a person is sitting behind it. The man turned his back to everyone and raised his head to face the sun and the angel. Under the light, the red robe he was wearing looked a little plain, and a five-pointed platinum crown symbolizing his status was placed on the table casually.
"Xiaoyou, up there."
Tang San, who was not affected and looked around, taking in everything around him, gently pulled the corner of Gu Youyi's clothes. Hearing Tang San's voice, Gu You remained calm, while looking left and right, he looked behind him with the corner of his eye.
The angel with six wings on his back just came into Gu You's eyes. This is a painting, the largest painting in the room. It is also the first angel with six wings that Gu You has seen since he came here.
"Norton."
"yes!"
The old man didn't turn around and called out the person's name accurately. The man whose name was called seemed a little excited. He resisted the urge to cheer and said eagerly: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
Norton's excitement did not affect the old man, and he just said calmly: "What time is it now?"
"Afternoon, Your Majesty Bishop."
The bishop's tone made Norton panic. He lowered his head and remained motionless.
"I should have said that no matter what happens, don't bother me in the afternoon." The bishop stood up slowly with his back to everyone. His shoulders were very narrow, and his slender body stood like a javelin in the sun. "I also brought Two people. Norton, you have been a smart kid since you were a child, and I hope you are too now."
The bishop did not continue, but his meaning was obvious. These words made Norton's legs shake like chaff. He pointed at the two innocent people behind him and said in a trembling voice: "Your Excellency, it was them, they said they were looking for Nightingale."
"nightingale?"
Upon hearing this name, the bishop, who had always turned his back to everyone, finally turned around.
"Looking for a nightingale?"
The bishop of the Tiandou City Spirit Temple is an old man who looks older than Emperor Xueye. He opened his slightly narrowed eyes and looked at Gu You and Tang San.
"go out."
The target of these words was not Gu You and Tang San. Norton, who accepted the order, lowered his head, did not turn around, and walked out of the door with a bow. The old man waved his hand gently, and the heavy door was forced to close softly like paper in front of the huge soul power.
"Nightingale, Nightingale. I didn't expect that the two kids who came to see Nightingale were not even Soul Sect members." No one could tell what the old man was thinking from his voice. He pointed to the small tea table and chair in front of the table and said, "Sit down."
The move just now proved that this old man was not an ordinary person. Being in a dangerous place and losing the power to resist, the two dared not disobey and sat down on the chairs.
'Sister Nightingale, you won't move the public funds of the Spirit Hall.'
The old man didn't introduce himself, and the man named Norton didn't talk to them. But Gu You was not a fool. Having read the original book, he probably guessed the true identity of the old man in front of him.
The five-pointed platinum crown is a crown that only the platinum bishops of the Spirit Hall are qualified to wear.
Tiandou City, bishop, five-pointed platinum crown, the three keywords combined, the name Saras naturally appeared in Gu You's mind.
Saras is one of the four platinum bishops whose authority in the affairs of the Spirit Hall Church is second only to the Pope. He is in charge of the Spirit Temple located in Tiandou City and is also the boss of all the Spirit Temples in Tiandou City. He is powerful and is a high-level Soul Douluo with a soul power level of 87.
Of course, none of this is important. For the original readers, the biggest thing he has done is to pass Tang San's identity as a descendant of the Haotian Sect back to the Spirit Temple and to Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong, who learned the news, sent the two elders, Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo, and a group of soul masters to try to intercept him halfway. Under the halo of the protagonist, the interception was naturally a failure, but it fulfilled the famous scene of Tang San's fairy grass pretending to be cool.
Gu You didn't understand what level of mistake Nightingale, a trouble-averse fish monster, had made to offend such a top-level powerful person.
"Tell me, who sent you here."
"?"
Who sent you? Can being lazy and idle be considered a human being? The two looked at each other, not understanding what the bishop was talking about.
The strange behavior of the two made Sarath feel that something was wrong. He didn't show it, frowning and asking, "Where are your tokens?"
"Token? Which one are you talking about?"
In the Spirit Hall, the only useful tokens are naturally the Spirit Hall's tokens. Gu You casually placed two tokens from the Spirit Hall on the table. One of the smaller ones had a big "ghost" printed on it, and the other was the Five Emperors Order that once shocked Dugu Bo.
Scanning the "ghost" token, Salas picked up the Five Emperors Order. His eyes widened, and his turbid pupils approached the token, as if trying to find its flaws.
"It's actually real"
No matter what he did, he couldn't find the flaws of this token, and Salas couldn't help but mutter in a voice that no one could hear. With another wave of his hand, the door that had just been closed for a while was opened again by the materialized soul power. Salas ordered the figure standing outside the door who dared not move: "Take them over."
".Huh?"
Outside the door, Salas's request made Norton, who did not leave, look puzzled. Before he could figure it out, Gu You had already put away the token and walked to his side with Tang San. As soon as the two walked out of the door, the door "banged" and closed quickly as if it couldn't wait.
The senses enhanced by soul power penetrated the door, listening to the footsteps gradually fading away. Saras's face, facing away from the sun, was shrouded in shadows. The turbid pupils just now revealed a glimmer of light, as well as the subtle and hidden scorching anger.
"Five Emperors' Orders, and Ghostly Tokens"
"Bi, Bi, Dong!"
——
"It's here, you go in by yourselves, I'll take my leave first."
Taking Gu You and Tang San to a remote room in the corner of the Spirit Hall, Norton nodded perfunctorily and left quickly as if throwing off a burden. Watching Norton's back quickly disappear around the corner, Gu You shrugged at Tang San and patted the door hard.
"Sister Nightingale, you've committed a crime, we're here to save you!"
"Are you sick?"
As soon as Gu You finished speaking, the door was opened by someone inside. With an expression of shame and anger on her delicate face, she gritted her teeth and said, "I haven't committed a crime, don't talk nonsense."
Looking left and right, she found that there was no one else nearby. Nightingale pulled Gu You into the room, and Tang San also slipped in. The door closed again, as calm as usual.
Looking around, she found that the room was large and the decoration was also the style that Nightingale liked, without any signs of imprisonment or restriction of freedom. Seeing this, Gu You breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister Nightingale, long time no see."
"Yes, long time no see." Nightingale's anger was obviously still burning, "Explain to me first, what do you mean I've committed a crime."
"Oh, don't worry about it." Gu You waved his hand, as if he had returned home, picked up the apple on the table and took a bite, and said vaguely: "It's because you're lazy all day long. I thought you were too lazy and were discovered by the leader, and you were confined and excluded by your colleagues. This apple is good, Xiao San, come and try it."
"Hehe, confinement and exclusion." Nightingale sneered, "Almost, I'll give you half right."
"Even if it's Saras, he has no right to confine me."
'Sure enough, the old man I just saw was Saras. ' Nightingale's words indirectly confirmed Gu You's guess. But he didn't feel happy, and his doubts deepened instead.
Half right, no confinement, that is to say, exclusion is true.
But, why?
This is a Soul Saint, a Soul Saint who can crush ordinary Soul Masters and Great Soul Masters with one finger. Even if the Spirit Hall is now in its heyday and has a large family and a large business, the Soul Saint-level strongmen are not like the cabbages on the roadside in the future. At least they are senior cadres and backbones in the organization.
In addition, Nightingale was sent out on a business trip by the Spirit City. According to the unspoken rule that the head office is half a level higher than the branch office, Nightingale from the Spirit City can walk sideways in the Spirit Hall of Tiandou City without anyone saying anything. How can a small Spirit Hall of Tiandou City have the courage to collectively exclude them?
There must be something behind them supporting them, or even issuing orders to require them to do so.
"Okay, don't think about it." Nightingale bent her fingers and slammed her head on Gu You's head, who had stopped eating because of thinking. "You are not from our Spirit Hall. It is not good for you to know so much."
"That's not the case." Gu You rubbed his forehead with one hand, "You are my friend, of course I will help you get justice."
Tang San beside him also nodded, obviously agreeing with Gu You's statement.
Gu You's words made Nightingale, who had always been alone, know for the first time what it felt like to be cared for by others. Her tone was obviously relaxed, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
This can't be said to be useless, it can only be said that the usefulness is not obvious. Seeing that the two young people looked serious, Nightingale had to continue: "Okay, okay, since you don't believe it, then I will briefly explain it."
In short, Nightingale's situation is actually a unilateral product of Bishop Saras. The reason is that he is unilaterally confronting the Pope of the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong.
Salas can become a platinum bishop not only because of his outstanding strength. What he considered more was actually his loyalty to the Spirit Hall and his fanatical belief in the totem angel god.
Yes, Saras is a fanatic.
Saras does not believe that Qianxunji, the descendant of the angel god, will die at the hands of Tang Hao. He also believes that although Bibi Dong is a saint, she relied on improper means to successfully get involved in the position of the pope belonging to the angel after the death of her teacher Qianxunji.
Therefore, he also dislikes Bibi Dong's subordinate Jue Gui Douluo. As the former subordinate of Gui Douluo, Nightingale is naturally not favored by him.
But whether he opposes Bibi Dong or Bibi Dong, Saras will not bring personal grudges into his job. For Nightingale, whom he does not like, he only lets his subordinates practice cold violence, and the treatment he deserves is not reduced at all.
In terms of gaining benefits for the Spirit Hall, Saras is still very conscientious. He made the interior of the Spirit Hall of Tiandou City into an iron plate and vigorously promoted the slogan of "Make Angels Great Again". Poaching people from under the nose of the Tiandou royal family, poaching people from under the nose of the Qibao Liuli Sect, these red line jumping operations are just daily tasks for him.
So, Nightingale acted indifferent, "You don't have to worry about me. If he doesn't come to me, I won't go to him. It's a good time to relax and rest."
