Give Me the Name of God

Tokar was happy when she saw Manda and Worm.

But seeing Manda's ferocious look, Tokar lowered his head. He didn't expect that Manda wouldn't welcome him.

"I, I just want a bowl of hot soup for my mother," Toca sniffed, "Just a bowl of hot soup."

Manda looked at Toca fiercely: "Isn't the soup free of charge?"

"I'm sorry..." Toka pursed his lips, saluted Manda, turned around and left with the wooden bowl.

Worm chased out in two steps and hugged Tokar: "Little guy, are you okay? Where is your mother? Ask her to come with you. There is hot soup, bread, and meat here."

Manda let out a sigh of relief. This damn bug finally let go of the money issue.

"Didn't I give you a gold coin?" Manda pinched Tokar's cheek, "Is it all spent so quickly?"

"The money was stolen, and it was stolen the next day." Thinking of the gold coin, Toca was extremely upset. He gave the gold coin to his mother for safekeeping, and her mother hid the gold coin in the baggage. As a result, the baggage was stolen the next day. snatched away by a man.

"Where's the believer in Prometheus? That's the fourteen-year-old black-bearded man."

Tokar took a bite of the bread: "Are you talking about Ogg? He went after the thief, but his gold coins were also stolen."

Manda shook his head. It was a pity for those two gold coins. He overestimated the IQ of these people.

"Have you been begging for food since then?"

"No," Tokar shook his head and said, "Og would go hunting and work as a day laborer. We still had food to eat. Later, there was a war where we lived, and a group of people wanted to capture Og and let him He went to serve as a soldier, and Ogg ran away with us. My mother fell ill, and Ogg carried her on his back, and then we had no food to eat.”

The words were a bit messy, but Manda understood what they were going through, and so did Worm, but he didn't know who Ogg was, and he was somewhat hostile to this stranger.

"Where is your mother?" Worm asked.

Toca pointed to the door: "On the way, mother fell asleep."

Falling asleep on the roadside in the snow? Worm knew what this meant, and he couldn't wait to rush out, but was stopped by Manda.

"You stay here, I'll bring them back."

Manda took Tokar out of the tavern. He was worried that Worm would conflict with Ogg. Although the bearded man was still reasonable, he was only fourteen years old after all. Don't get killed just because of a misunderstanding.

Among the ruins of the temple, Manda found Ogg and Tokar's mother. His mother was lying dying in the snow. Judging from the sound of her breathing, she seemed to have a severe lung disease.

Ogg sat in the snow and prayed silently. The moment he saw Manda, the strong man shed tears.

"The great prophet told me that the end of suffering lies ahead. I know I shouldn't let a child beg, but I really can't walk. She is still alive. Save her..."

"Are you really unable to walk?" Manda regretted a little, and should have let Worm come over. He carried Tokar's mother with difficulty and sent her to the tavern. Then he came back, carrying the heavy Ogg on his back. .

He was injured, with a gash on his calf longer than his hand and frostbite.

Worm didn't bother to look at him. He was checking the mother's condition.

"Do you know medical skills?" Manda asked in surprise.

"After reading some medical books, her condition is not very good." Worm looked very solemn.

"Give her something to eat and let her sleep overnight. I will find a doctor for her tomorrow."

"It's useless," Ogg shook his head. "Doctors can't do anything except exorcism and atonement. I originally had a dozen copper coins, but they all cheated me away."

In the Middle Ages, medicine and medicine were regarded as witchcraft and heresy, and the rational explanation for illness was that of the devil and sin, requiring the redemption of the Lord.

It seemed that this woman was hopeless. Manda sighed and said, "Give her a break before her disease is transmitted to others."

Toca seemed to understand Manda's words, and held her mother's hand tightly, with tears in her eyes.

"I'm full. I'm leaving now. Mom, let's go..."

Manda frowned and said, "Silly boy, I'm doing this for your own good."

"That's enough!" Worm showed his fangs, "Don't say such things in front of the children. Go to the market tomorrow and buy some herbs for me."

Worm wrote a prescription and handed it to Manda. Manda curled her lips and said, "Where's the money?"

Worm looked at the cash box and said, "Isn't there another gold coin..."

"Isn't that the earl's?"

Worm said nothing, picked up the mother of the child and went to the guest room.

The next day, Manda hired two carriages and loaded them with thirty barrels of wine. This was the news from Dunison that the New Year was approaching and Viscount Gaisac needed more wine.

As the Viscount's royal merchant, Manda could bypass Dunison and trade directly with the Vicount, but he did not do that. Abandoning the middleman was a taboo in the shopping mall, and Dunison's role might cause Manda to suffer a big loss at any time.

"It's true that you beat the viscount's tax collector and you actually got his badge in exchange for it." Dunison greeted the man to unload the truck, as if he knew nothing about what happened before.

Manda suspected that he was acting. Why did Stanley Knight appear by chance the night he encountered the Punisher? Apparently someone had sent a message to the Viscount.

Viscount Gassac was able to establish a relationship with the earl, and Dunison must have played a big role in it.

After receiving two gold coins and forty silver coins from Dunison for wine, Manda decided to go to the market to help Worm buy medicinal materials and see if she could find any good stuff.

He has wanted to come to the market for a long time. He has a pair of good eyes, but it is obviously a shameful waste not to use them in the market.

But the previous lessons made Manda lose his enthusiasm. No matter what good things he bought, they would eventually be plundered by the count.

It's different now. He has a "Jurassic Dragon Island". It's not a big place, but he can at least store some gadgets.

The market in Niujiao Town is not small, but it is incomparable with the market in Drawshaft City, and most of the products sold here are livestock. Manda walked around the market, but there was nothing that caught his eye.

Don't even think about herbal medicine. Only a brave businessman secretly took out some. Manda knew it was a pure fake after just one look.

Good things are really hard to come by! Manda sighed, it looked like Tokar was going to lose her mother on New Year's Eve.

After finding nothing, Manda left the market and suddenly heard footsteps when she walked into an alley.

Two people, with a special smell, they have been following me.

Are they believers of ancient gods? A bit similar, but different.

Manda secretly glanced back, feeling a chill running from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

It's the God's Punishment Warrior, the one who chops down walls with an axe.

There is also a monk accompanying him, who seems to be of about first-level strength. How could he meet them here? I don’t know how long I was followed by them.

Manda looked around. Although pedestrians occasionally walked by in the alley, they could do anything here without any scruples. No one would provoke the God Punisher for strangers, and no one even dared to watch the fun.

Manda quickened his pace, and the two men followed quickly. Hard steel was impossible, and the chance of a sneak attack was slim. Seeing the two men approaching, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Mr. Nidali, what a coincidence that I meet you here."
