Chapter 135 The equivalent of the soul

"Great God, please listen to my wish, please resurrect that person..." A girl in a white dress knelt in front of the statue, prayed devoutly, and told her wishes to the respected god...

"Hey, is this the Great God Lei Te?" Just as the girl was praying, Edward's curious voice came from behind.

The girl stood up and turned around to see several strange people behind her. The one who exclaimed was a short blond man in red.

"Are you interested in the Rete Cult?" the girl said to everyone with a smile, seemingly treating them as potential believers.

Edward waved his hand and said, "Sorry, I don't believe in religion."

Hearing this, the girl clasped her hands on her chest and said to Edward piously, "This is wrong. Only by believing in God and respecting God can you live your life in gratitude and hope. This is a very beautiful thing!"

"

With a cold snort, Edward casually sat on the bench behind him, looked at the statue standing in front of him with a mocking look, and said to the girl, "The living will live forever and the dead will revive. Do you really believe in this kind of thing?"

?"

The girl nodded without thinking and said with a pious smile, "Yes, this is something that only God can achieve. God Lei Te is the God I believe in. He can definitely do it!"

With a helpless sigh, Edward took out a notebook from his coat pocket, opened it and read slowly, "35 liters of water, 20 kilograms of carbon, 4 liters of amine, 1.5 kilograms of lime, 800 grams of phosphorus, and 250 grams of salt.

, 100 grams of saltpeter, and various others.”

With the girl's expression of ignorance and incomprehension, Edward sighed and closed the note in his hand, and said seriously, "This is what I think of the human body elements of an adult... Science has already been able to explain the human body.

structure, but there is no successful case of making it from the human body... What can’t be done by science, can prayer do it?”

The girl also realized at this moment that the blond boy in front of her was refuting her belief. She immediately frowned and retorted, "Pray and believe! In this way, your wish will come true!"

"By the way, these materials can be bought at the market with a child's pocket money. Humans... they are such cheap things..." Edward looked at the ceiling and laughed mockingly.

"Human beings are not objects. Your words are blasphemous and will be punished by God!" The girl was finally angered by Edward's rude attitude and blasphemed again and again, which the girl did not allow.

The silent Ashes finally spoke at this moment, "That's right, people cannot be quantified in such a simple way. The materials you mentioned, Edward, are not made up of human beings, but bodies, or rather... corpses!

"

Edward was stunned by Ashes' words and asked blankly, "So, what does it mean to be a human being?"

Ashes sighed and said, "Human beings are made up of two parts... body and soul. Without both, no one can survive alone. When the two become one, they are the real human beings. As you said, body,

It is cheap, but correspondingly, the soul...is priceless!"

The girl happily said, "This gentleman is right. Soul, only gods can fulfill such wishes, and can bring lost souls back to us and revive the dead!"

Hui Jin sighed helplessly, looked at the devout girl and asked, "Then why do you believe in God? God will fulfill your wish? Bring the person you cherish back to you?"

The girl looked at the ashes with a serious face and said seriously, "Because God is kind, because God cannot bear to see the suffering in the world, and God is almighty! It is not difficult for God to fulfill people's wishes!"

"Because of my own powerlessness...do I blame everything on God? How cowardly..." Ashes shook his head and said helplessly.

"It's beyond your reach, you shouldn't ask for it!" Hui Jing said seriously, looking at some girls who didn't know how to refute.

Edward on the side also laughed, "Humph, so we, the scientists and alchemists who don't believe in God, may be the closest existence to gods."

"Do you think you can compare with gods? You are so arrogant and rude!" The girl looked at Edward angrily and scolded him for his blasphemy!

Edward raised his eyebrows, laughed and said, "Arrogant... I remembered a mythical story. The great hero flew closer and closer to the sun, but his waxy wings were baked and fell to the ground...

"

"I think you two brothers are indeed a bit arrogant... you despise life and soul. If this continues... you will one day be destroyed by one of them." Ashes behind him looked at the Elric brothers and said slowly and somewhat seriously.

, I hope they can listen to what I say...

Edward curled his lips in a helpless expression, stood up, looked at the girl in front of him, and asked with a smile, "Can an arrogant scientist like me also be forgiven by the gods?"

The girl suddenly beamed, looked at Edward in surprise and said, "Of course, God will always welcome a person who repented!"

After being introduced by a girl named Rose, Hui Jin and others finally got to see Pope Cornero as they wished. During this boring waiting process, Edward approached Hui Jin. He seemed a little hesitant, but he still mustered up the courage.

Ask him, "Mr. Ashes, do you have any research on souls?"

Hui Jing was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's not bad, I just did some research, what's the matter?"

Edward hesitated, then took a deep breath and asked, "You said that a person's soul is priceless, so does the soul not have to abide by the principle of equivalent exchange?"

Ashes laughed, narrowed his eyes, and said slowly, "The soul is priceless, but it can still abide by the principle of equal exchange. Then there must be something equivalent to the soul. So, what can be exchanged?

Where is the soul?"

Edward was stunned, and after thinking for a while, he slowly asked, "What is the equivalent of the soul, the thing that can be exchanged for the soul?"

Hui Jing's expression suddenly became mysterious. He lowered his head and whispered in Edward's ear, "The equivalent of the soul... is naturally the soul. That is to say, only the soul can be exchanged for the soul... But, something that does not exist cannot be exchanged."

In exchange."

"The equivalent of the soul is still the soul... Only the soul can be exchanged for the soul..." Edward was stunned. The value of the soul is priceless, so naturally only the same priceless soul can be exchanged for the soul...

He began to recall his past, the human body refining process he and his brother carried out... the thing he wanted to exchange for his mother's soul... turned out to be just a drop of his own blood, how arrogant... how ridiculous.

Neither he nor his brother were willing to give up their souls, and did not even think of giving up their souls in exchange for their mother's soul. How could the human body training be successful? It turned out that he and his brother were wrong from the beginning... wrong

Ridiculous.

It turns out that the most important thing is not to refine the mother's body, but to replace the mother's soul... Thinking of this, Edward laughed somewhat self-deprecatingly...

Suddenly seeming to remember something, Edward looked at the ashes and continued to ask, "So, may I ask if the soul can be exchanged for other things, even if that thing has almost no value at all?"

Ashes laughed, tilted his head and said, "As I said, souls must also abide by the exchange of equal value..."

Before Ashes could finish speaking, the door was pushed open, and a man dressed as a priest looked at everyone and said, "Follow me, the Pope is waiting for you!"

Ashes patted Edward on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Let's get down to business first. I'll leave this question to you, a little scientist, to verify it yourself!"

After saying that, Ashes took the lead in pulling the fire girl out of the church, followed behind him, and walked towards the seat of Pope Conyero...

The fireproof girl suddenly turned back to look at Ashes, and whispered helplessly, "Master Ashes, you said some unnecessary words. Haven't those brothers given up on resurrecting their mother? Why do you still tell them?

Where is the mistake?"

Hui Jin looked at the serious fire prevention girl and couldn't help but shook her head, glanced at the brother behind her, and said helplessly, "That's right, but now the two brothers are actually walking on a very dangerous road. I don't know if you have

I have heard such a story... It is said that a loving but poor couple wanted to give each other a gift during the festival, but because they had no money, the wife sold her long hair and bought a watch chain for her husband.

But I found out that my husband had sold his pocket watch and I should buy a hair accessory..."

The fireproof girl was stunned after hearing this. "You are saying that these brothers are very likely to sacrifice themselves for each other, but they may not achieve the desired result?"

"I just said that it is possible, but if it really comes to that point, neither of these two brothers will hesitate, so I hope that they will take it seriously, that they will not be impulsive, and that it will be good for them to know some things.

of…"

"I understand, Lord Ashes, you are still soft-hearted, right? Sure enough, Lord Ashes is a kind person..." The fireproof girl suddenly covered her mouth and laughed softly.

"Don't talk nonsense, I just like this kind of fighting spirit, indomitable will and the affection between these two brothers... they are not good people, don't randomly send me good person cards!" Hui Jin looked at the smiling fire prevention girl, a little bit.

Said helplessly.

"What...what is a good guy card? Does it sound like a good thing?" The fireproof girl tilted her head and asked in confusion.

"The good guy card is... forget it, anyway... don't give out the good guy card randomly, it's not very good." Hui Jing sighed helplessly, suddenly not knowing how to answer...

"Lord Ashes, what you said is still so profound. I still can't figure out what it means. I really hope that one day I can really follow your thoughts..." The fire prevention girl sighed helplessly and shook her head.
