Chapter 47: We meet again, sister

In fact, the area where the monks gathered was not as dilapidated as some people imagined. The architectural style of that area was no different from other areas in the sanctuary, and it was also clean and clean. If it were not for Lina's instructions, it would be difficult to see the special features of this area.

"When I left, there should be about sixty ascetics in the church. In the past two years, several may have increased, but the total number will not exceed seventy." Lina pointed to the almost empty area and explained to Panis: "At this time, most people should go to several fields outside the city that are exclusively for ascetics. You also know that all their food needs to be planted by themselves, so they used a few small fields outside the church outside the city, with the blessing of Lord Deniya. Their fields are harvested well every year, enough for all ascetics to eat by themselves. If there is any excess harvest besides the rations, then these excess food will be regarded as gifts from Lord Deniya and distributed to some believers who need them to share. However, in fact, believers generally do not compete for this food. After they are distributed, most of them are gifts from the goddess and are distributed to each believer evenly."

"It sounds good to be harmonious and friendly among believers and to be humble to each other." Panis looked at the strange smile on Lina's face and asked in confusion: "Why do you make such an expression? I don't know what's wrong?"

"Uh, how do you say it, it just sounds harmonious and friendly." Lina shrugged and said helplessly: "It's not that many people don't want to grab it, but they only make the grain into the roughest black bread. You know, winter can be used as a weapon, and even the poor generally don't eat it. Only some people with the most difficult life will eat it. There are no such families near Neville City. Even if there are poor people, their basic lives can still be guaranteed. So naturally no one will rob it."

"Well, it seems that sometimes it is a problem to be too adequate." Panis said no exaggeration. Due to the protection of gods in Yara, crop yields are very high. Even in the years of poor climate, the grain output is enough for all races on the continent to consume together. It can indeed be said to be very sufficient. However, even so, in some areas with harsh natural environments or living environments, civilians still die from hunger every year, so the Ascetic Society has this rule. Panis shrugged and said, "So, since the ascetics have all gone to work in the fields, why do we still have to come here?"

"It's just most of it, not that there is no one here." Lina rolled her eyes and said, "The monks will divide their work into two parts every day. Most of them will work in the fields. Some of the weak women and elderly people will stay in the sanctuary to sew and clean clothes. They will also maintain and modify the plants that will modify the entire sanctuary."

"Well, then your sister Betty should be a relatively weak woman?" Panis asked tentatively: "However, I think judging from the strength and momentum you usually beat me, you are not weak at all."

"Huh", Panis turned sideways, avoiding Lina's flying leg kick without warning, and shouted in a cold sweat: "Hey, hey, I'm just telling the truth, you're still kicking, hey. Okay okay, I admit my mistake, you'll kick me again, you'll be crying for help."

"Hmph, although I know the purpose of your intentional trouble, but..." Lina sneered and said, "What you said still makes me want to kick you so much. There is no way, just sacrifice it."

"I don't want such sacrifices." Panis decisively distanced himself from Lina: "You asked me to come with me, it's just to have a target to beat me when I need it. I regret it, I want to go back."

"Hmph, it's too late to regret now." Lina's deliberately stern face couldn't hold back. She burst out laughing and shook her head and said, "You guy, you are obviously kind-hearted, why do you have to use this method to show off. I really can't stand you. Indeed, our sisters are not weak at all, but she is here today. Have you forgotten what I said? We are connected by blood, and I can sense it. She didn't go anywhere today, she is waiting for my arrival."

Feeling that Lina had completely relaxed, Panis stopped making trouble, and pushed Lina's back and said, "Then don't let her wait too long. Do you need to ask someone to inform you? Or find someone to ask your sister's location."

"No, there is no habit of informing me here. Just go in if you need it." Lina shook her head and said, "Come with me, I know where my sister is, so there is no need to ask others."

When you walk into the living area of ​​the monk, although the architectural style is exactly the same as the outside, you can still see the subtle differences between the two. In this area, there is no decoration in the exterior wall or inside of the house. There is no extra furniture inside and outside the room except for the necessities of life. Just as the user lives completely for the sake of living, there is no fun to enjoy life.

Although Panis has rich experience in all aspects and has a deep understanding of various large churches, he does not agree with the concept of asceticism, so he has not had too many contacts with the monks. This is the first time he has entered the internal practice of asceticism and has seen the simplest way of life for the monks. It has to be said that after seeing the surrounding environment, Panis' disagreement with the concept of asceticism has further deepened. He does not believe that belief in gods requires a person to do this.

Of course, he would not say these words. Everyone has their own way of believing in the gods. As long as they do not cause trouble to others, no one has the qualifications to judge other people's methods. Therefore, Panis just shut up and followed Lina and silently looked at the person walking out of a building.

Facing the two of them was a woman with bare head shaved, no hair, wearing a gray robe, seven or eight patches could be seen on the robe, no shoes on her feet, and brown skin was exposed on her bare feet. Yes, brown skin, the woman's face, hands and feet had experienced many years of exposure to sunlight, her originally fair skin had turned brown, and only the place where she was covered by clothes all year round can be seen.
