Chapter 5 In the Name of the Father
Chapter 5 In the Name of Father ()
The sun is bright in the early morning, shining on the snowy mountains in western Romania, reflecting a white light. Although it is a world of ice and snow, you can feel the unique warmth of the winter sun.
Chen Yi stood in front of the window, looking at the rows of silver needle cedars, and looking at the snowy scenery of the silver sea, for a moment he was a little intoxicated in this white world.
He lives in the southern coastal areas of China and has not seen a snow for many years. After a few years of going to the capital, he either studies or thinks about revenge. He has the time to have free time and is in a bustling city. Everyone is busy with life. How many people can stop and appreciate it?
Unexpectedly, after entering this Van Helsing mission world, I have the opportunity and mood to see the natural scenery of the nineteenth century.
Theoretically, if you don’t die, you can see all the scenery in various fantasy worlds in the future.
Although I don't know why it exists.
"You look good, you look like you have completely recovered." Anna's voice came from behind.
Chen Yi looked back and saw that she was wearing a bright blue long dress with exquisite lace on the edge and a red ribbon on her head. She looked a bit casual and slightly wild.
She was standing at the door with her shoulders in her arms.
"It's your medicine." Chen Yi replied.
With despicable medical skills, Chen Yi had recovered all of his wounds last night and all his wounds had healed.
After becoming an adventurer, Chen Yi clearly felt that his physique was different from that of ordinary people, and his recovery ability was greatly enhanced. Even if he had no medical treatment, one night would be enough for him to recover a lot.
"You don't have to make such excuses. I know the efficacy of those medicines, but if you don't plan to say it, I won't force you to ask. Everyone has the right to keep their own secrets."
"You are a kind and understanding girl." Chen Yi smiled.
Suddenly the bell rang in the town, melodious and crisp.
Chen Yi looked out the window and saw a large number of townspeople gathering again.
"What happened again?"
Anna replied: "No, nothing is wrong, it's the bells of the church. Most of the townspeople in Transylvania are devout believers, and today is the Sunday of prayer to God."
"What do they pray for?"
"What else can it be? I hope God will help them out of vampires."
"It's so interesting. After what happened last night, I thought they were welcome to vampires."
"Just like no one welcomes tyranny, just no one dares to resist. Dracula is too powerful."
A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Yi's mouth.
He picked up his coat and walked out the door.
"Hey, where are you going?" Anna asked.
“Go to church.”
"Are you a believer?"
"Everyone has faith." Chen Yi replied.
In the church, an elderly priest with white hair was preaching.
"Today, we gather here to express our piety and gratitude to God. This is a suitable place because it is full of holy light and is not affected by the evil of the world. As we know, all evil spirits do not exist for no reason. They are the projection of evil in our hearts, the reflection of negative emotions such as greed, hatred, jealousy, and fear in our hearts. God guides us, and he is like the sun, warming us, driving away darkness, and driving away evil spirits."
"God is the Father of Heaven, our Lord, and his disrespect for the Father is the abandonment of light, the dependence and refuge of darkness and evil. The Father punishes him and makes him surrounded by evil spirits until one day he wakes up. If he cannot convert, the Father will descend the holy light and cleanse his sins."
"Let us pray to the Father, who gives us light, air, flowers, water, and peace. In the name of the Father, keep our hearts pure and no longer eroded by the power of evil darkness."
"Amen!"
"Amen!" All believers prayed in a low voice.
After the sermons are officially over, the priests usually ask some believers about their feelings. Some believers often speak loudly about their minds being liberated from the perspective of their heavenly Father, and they will be peaceful and peaceful from now on. Some believers will also ask the priests about some of the happenings, and the priests will give answers to this.
At this moment, a town citizen was praying for the priest's advice:
"The Silver Wolf died yesterday, Father, is this God's arrangement?"
The priest replied: "The will of the Lord cannot be guessed. We must obey the will of the Lord. We must punish us, we must accept it calmly, reward us, and we must also be humble and grateful. The silver wolf is the subordinate of the vampire Dracula, and the undead creatures are evil beings, and the Lord will inevitably punish and destroy them."
"But what if Count Dracula comes to cause trouble for us?"
The priest replied: "Then we should face it calmly, the Lord... has his own arrangements."
"The question is whether you can see clearly when the Lord's arrangement comes? And can you understand?" In the church, a loud voice broke this short peace.
The believers looked back and saw Shen Yi standing at the door of the church.
Hulala, a large group of people stood up, and someone shouted: "It was the foreigner who killed the Silver Wolf, which brought disaster to the town. He actually dared to come here!"
"Quiet! A holy land, do not make noise!" the priest shouted.
Everyone calmed down at the same time.
Shen Yi walked towards the pulpit with a smile and came to the priest: "Her priest, can you allow me to say a few words?"
The priest looked at Shen Yi, thought for a while and finally nodded: "Everyone has the power to express his own opinions, and the Heavenly Father is magnanimous. Even if he is an unforgivable person, you cannot deprive him of his power to speak. But if you blaspheme the Lord, you will be punished."
He retreated to the side, and Shen Yi officially stood on the stage.
Shen Yi looked around the townspeople in the church and said loudly: "Before I make a formal speech, I want to tell you a little story."
"The story is like this. There was a believer who used his piety to impress the kind Father. So after he died, he returned to heaven and his father summoned him. The Father asked him: What reward do you need. He replied: I hope my son can become a great man."
"The Father agreed to his request. After the believer's son knew about the rewards of the Father, he no longer did his job. He abandoned the countryside and stopped farming, and waited for the Father to arrange for him to be the Duke of a country every day. But he never waited. But he firmly believed that the kind Father would fulfill his promise, so he waited firmly. Day after day, year after year. He became increasingly poor and poor. In the end, he was forced to live in a broken courtyard, begging for life there until an ice-cold day, without clothes or food, and died miserably."
"After his death, he went to see the Father and asked why the Father had not fulfilled his promise."
"The Father said, I have never forgotten my promise to your father. But if you want to become a great man, you must become an official first. Even if you are just a low-level civil servant, I can make you prosperous, but you just do nothing. How can I make you a great man? I have no choice but to change the conditions, hoping to make you a general. But I sent you the letter of recruiting soldiers again and again, but you threw it away without even looking. If you go, I can guarantee that you will never be hurt by the enemy's swords. Wherever you go, you will write the glory of military achievements, but if you don't go, I can't do it.
Yes, I can only change the conditions and hope that you can become a businessman. As long as you go to business, your business will always be prosperous. No matter what you do, there will be a lot of customers, but you still do nothing. There is really no way, I can only put some gold under the stone slab in your yard. Just clean it a little and you can find the existence of those gold. But you still do nothing... No matter what reward I give you, you need to discover it yourself, pursue it, and work hard at least once to get it. So it is not that I don’t fulfill my promise, but when I give you the reward, you don’t know how to cherish it at all and ignore it..."
Shen Yi told this simple story in a plain tone, with a strange smile in his eyes.
He looked at the believers in the church, paused for a moment before continuing: "It is a pity that in my opinion, the people in the small town of Transylvania, like the stupid and lazy child, wait for the rescue of Heavenly Father every day, but when the rescue of Heavenly Father has arrived, they do not know how to cherish and love, but instead treat the people who help them with the attitude of their enemies."
"What are you talking about?!" A town citizen stood up.
It was Gasken, the tavern guy who had a crush on Anna.
"What did you hear me say?" Shen Yi shouted: "As you have seen, when the Father sent his messenger to save you from danger, your attitude was to be afraid of offending evil. Look at what is happening in this town? You are under the oppression of vampires, but you are disdainful of the help from the outside world. For those who killed the Silver Wolf, they tried to capture and hand it over to Count Dracula to calm his anger. When the Father gave you help, did you treat the Father's gift in this way? You pray every day, pray for the coming of light and let the darkness go away from you. But when the light really comes, you choose to abandon the light and embrace the darkness! So, what are you!"
Shen Yi yelled: "A group of false believers! A group of selfish, lazy, incompetent, and timid believers! You have blasphemed the gift of the Father, ignored the glory of the Father, embraced the power of darkness, bowed to the evil with knees, and then prayed for the Father's forgiveness? Are you worthy?"
"You bastard!" Gasken yelled, his face flushed red, and his iron fists were already clenched tightly.
However, he did not rush up to beat Shen Yi, because before him, someone had already stood up and roared at Shen Yi: "How can you, a foreigner, be worthy of becoming an envoy of the Heavenly Father? When the gift of the Heavenly Father comes, we will naturally know!"
It was Northon who spoke.
He turned around and shouted at the town people behind him, "Kill this bastard!"
Bang!
Gunshot.
Northon fell down while covering his thighs wailingly.
On the podium, a trace of blue smoke emerged from the gun in Chen Yi's hand.
Everyone was shocked by the shot.
The priest screamed: "How can you do bloody things in the holy land?"
Chen Yi turned around and glared at the priest: "The Book of the Holy Book: All those who are loyal to the Lord will vow to keep the commandments, laws, laws, and covenants recorded in the book. Those who violate it will will be severely punished. Satan has obtained the permission of the Lord and brought disaster to Job; Moses and Aaron have brought ten disasters to Egypt according to the will of God. Anyone who violates the will of the Lord will be punished by the Lord. The Lord is kind and harsh. The gift of the Lord can bring light to you, but if this place has been attacked by evil forces, it should be cleared!"
Chen Yi had a deep understanding of many sources of the Bible, and after saying something, the priest had nothing to answer.
Northon covered his legs and shouted: "I have not been eroded by evil! I am the most loyal believer of God!"
Chen Yi sneered: "Northra Hall, born in 1865, is a businessman family. You do not believe in God. What you really believe in is money and status. You yearn to become a true noble. But on the other hand, Count Durcula is the existence that ruled this land. So you bow to him and provide him with information about the town at any time to exchange for your own peace. What you want most is to marry Anna Verares so that you can clearly testify to become the true noble in the town of Terran. But you are worried that you are bound by the vows of the ancestors of the Verares family, so that you cannot ascend to heaven after death. You are a completely selfish and self-interested existence. It's strange. Why do you feel confident that a selfish and despicable villain like you will be able to accept someone like you?"
"You..." Northon was shocked by Chen Yi's thoughts. These things only exist in his heart, how could he know?
Chen Yi's gun slowly pointed at the townsmen in the church: "Don't be surprised, all this was told by the Father. This man's dirtyness is disgusting. He deceived and deceived the people in this town. In the name of his father, the shot just now is my punishment for you."
"You should be punished only by impersonating the messenger of the Father and using worldly weapons in the Father's temple!" Gasken shouted.
Perhaps it was Anna's fault that Gasken always had no favoritism for Chen Yi.
"Gasken Powell, a former orphan from another country, was taken in by the old carpenter here after coming to Transylvania and settled here since then. Everyone knows that you have a strong body, a brave and fierce personality, and an excellent alcohol tolerance, but few people know that you are a descendant of the Vikings. Although you are just a pub, good at fighting and loving to show off, you are actually a real warrior. Unfortunately, you did not shoulder the honor and responsibility that a warrior deserves, and let yourself be buried in the town, watching the villagers here be humiliated."
Chen Yi continued to say lightly, and everyone looked at Gasken in surprise at the same time.
The young man's face became panicked: "How did you... know?"
"As I said, the father knows everything." Chen Yi's expression was indifferent.
"Is he really the messenger of God?" the townspeople talked.
Looking at Northon who was shot in the thigh, Chen Yi suddenly walked over and reached out and pressed him on Northon's injured leg.
Despicable medical techniques are launched.
Northon's injured leg actually began to improve.
"Oh my God, this is a miracle!" People exclaimed, their eyes full of fear when they looked at Chen Yi.
Chen Yi said slowly: "This is the Lord's gift."
