Give Me the Name of God

Chapter 56: Worm's troubles

   For three consecutive days, no business came to the door, and all the pedestrians near the tavern were driven away by the punished samurai Campola.

   It doesn’t matter if you make a few less drinks, but it’s too uncomfortable to be blocked at the door every day. Manda doesn’t even have the courage to go outside and pee.

   "When I get to the second floor, the first one will kill you." Manda opened the window on the second floor and looked at Campola defiantly.

   Campola took the broken tomahawk and hooked his finger at Manda, with a provocative smile on his face.

   How can I get to the second level? The answer lies on the stone statue, but the top priority is to find Quinta to crack the ciphertext on the stone statue.

   Two days later is the New Year. Worm will return to the valley to report the news. He has been away from the valley for so long. This is the first time Manda is looking forward to getting in touch with the earl. He needs the earl's support and also needs to get in touch with Quinta.

   But Worm didn't want to go back to the valley. He was very upset, and he didn't even want to make wine.

   "I'm going back tomorrow, do you have anything to tell the earl?" This is the first time Warm has asked such a question.

   "I have a lot to say to the earl, why don't you take me with you." Manda also gave an unexpected answer.

   "You can't go to the valley, you can't, you can't go without the earl's order!" Worm became flustered.

   Manda smiled and said, "What the **** do you want to tell me?"

   Worm's gray face slowly turned pale, and the following topic made it difficult for him to speak; "You want to tell the earl, right?"

   Manda was startled, and turned to look outside the window: "Don't you tell the earl about this kind of thing?"

   "If the earl knew, they would die."

   "Don't you want them to die?"

   "Of course I don't want to, they are not bad guys!"

   "Then who is the bad guy?"

   After arguing for a long time, Manda discovered a problem. He and Worm were not talking about the same object. Worm wanted to keep Toka, and Manda wanted to drive Campola away.

   "Toka's mother has not healed yet," Worm rubbed his hands. "I want to keep them for a while."

   "Let's live after the New Year, as long as the madman is stuck at the door, they can't go anywhere."

   "I want them to live longer."

   "How long is it longer?"

   "I think, when Toka grows up..."

   Manda carefully examined Worm’s five senses: "Toka is really not your son? Did his mother have a relationship with you..."

   "Don't say such disgusting jokes!" Worm's facial features are not distorted, which proves that he hasn't lied, but Manda feels that Toka does look a little like Worm.

   He took a big sip of wine and gasped, "I don't want to go back to the valley. I'm worried that someone from outside will break in and people from the valley will follow. I want that child to live here forever."

   Manda's heart turned, and a conspiracy was born. This was an excellent opportunity to control Worm.

   "You want to make a deal with me, don't you?" Manda smiled.

   "That's it," Worm squeezed his teeth. "From now on, all the income of the tavern will be yours. I won't interfere, but you have to promise not to inform the earl."

   "Deal!" Manda agreed very simply, and then said again, "I will keep the secret for you, but the earl will send someone over every month, can you hide it from them?"

   "So... I need your help."

   Manda nodded and said, "So, this is another deal. I can lie to them for you, but you must do me a favor and bring me something to the valley."

"what?"

   "The new year is here, I have a gift I want to give to a friend, but it's not the earl."

   In the middle of the night, Manda began to copy the cipher text on the stone statue. He first chose the stone statue of Hephaestus, and even if he was discovered by the earl, he would not reveal his natal god.

   After copying the ciphertext, he thought about nailing this parchment to an ancient book and giving the ancient book as a gift to Quinta.

  The binding process is very complicated, and there will inevitably be some flaws. In the process of finishing, Manda hesitated.

   Can this book really reach Quinta's hands smoothly? Worm is not good at lying, how should he explain if he is spotted by the earl?

   Can Quinta really find a special page in the book? Can he understand what Manda means?

  Will the earl find out during the translation process? How to bring it out of the valley after the translation is successful? A series of questions forced Manda to change his mind. He had to calculate the earl once.

   took out a piece of parchment. Manda wrote down some features that Piaget can use:

   1. Very greedy

   2. Many doubts

   3. Very careful

   4. Can distinguish lies, but cannot distinguish incomplete truth.

  ……

   The next day, Worm was about to set off: "What gift are you going to bring to Quinta?"

   Manda shook his head and said, "I changed my mind. I want you to take Quinta to the tavern for two days."

   "Are you crazy?" Worm said angrily, "This is not something I can do!"

Manda smiled darkly: "You can do it. From now on, everything I say to you is the truth. All I want to do is for his sake. You only need to truthfully convey it to the earl, and he will definitely Let you bring Quinta."

  ……

   Worm stood in front of the earl nervously, if it weren't for Toka, he would never run to the earl to die.

  According to Manda's orders, he reported to the earl good news: "Manda found two stone statues from a merchant, which are very similar to the stone statues bought from the last time from Rexa City."

  Earl's eyes lit up and he gently stroked the strings and said, "This little guy has found a good thing again, let him buy it."

   "Manda is not sure if these two statues are real~www.wuxiahere.com~ and they are also not sure if the two statues are the same as the previous statues. The words engraved on them are similar."

   "Whether it's true or not, and whether it's the same, buy it back." The earl smiled broadly, as Manda expected, he was very greedy, he would not miss such precious things.

   "Each stone statue costs three hundred gold coins."

   The generous smile disappeared, and the count turned his face to look at Worm, with four more eyes on his face for a moment.

  Worm was nervous, but he was just repeating Manda's words truthfully. To him, there were no lies in these words.

   The extra eyes were closed, and the earl smiled again and said: "Just tell me, what does he want to do?"

   "He wants to bring the previous statue to Niujiao Town and compare it with the new statue."

   "That's impossible! I won't let him touch those statues again!" The earl tapped the neck, and the cold air filled the room.

   It is impossible for him to give the statue to Manda. He even worried that Manda would trick the statue out of it with a trickery.

   Worm did not dare to speak, and the room was quiet for a while, the count asked again; "Is there any other way?"

   "He said, there is another person in the valley who can recognize the stone statue."

   "Quinta!" The earl smiled, "Take him there. I only give you one day. At this time tomorrow, you must bring Quinta back to me."

  Worm took Quinta out of the valley. The earl continued to play the harp. After playing a piece, the earl suddenly laughed.

"I will have a legion of followers of the Lord God. I will enslave them, the great Typhon. I will definitely wash you away from the shame of the year. Please give me an oracle. Please give me an artifact. Please give me a god. name."
