The God who is so efficacious to you seems to me only terrifying, and I just want to stay far away.
In modern society, people know better than before about respecting ghosts and gods and staying away from them.
The era of worshiping spirits has really declined. God Bayan has a premonition that he will fall off the altar sooner or later. This is correct.
It could be more than ten years in the short term, or decades in the long term. It will happen sooner or later.
However, it seems that God Bayan has also looked away, and he seems to be able to look at the outcome he is about to face calmly.
"I remember the year when I decided to become a god, it was the year when Lin Shuang's literary alliance vowed to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and killed Cheng Jun, a fellow acquaintance of Tamsui. That was when Emperor Qianlong was still in power." Bayang Shen said, "I have seen the changes in the sea with my own eyes.
For three or four generations, from birth to old age, no matter how the world changes, human life has always been the same."
"Although the little gods have been around for a long time, they are like withered bones in the grave, becoming more and more stale, and they are increasingly confused about what people want nowadays. People nowadays also disrespect the gods less and less. They no longer regard the gods as
Gods are not regarded as beliefs, but as helping them to do things."
"If I help them, they will buy more tributes and burn more incense sticks for me next time as a return of their wishes. They regard worshiping gods as a consensual transaction, and it is over when the transaction is over."
"If I don't help them, they won't bother to pray a second time, and they will even curse me."
"In the past, people respected me even if they didn't believe in me. But even if people believe in me now, they don't have any respect at all. Even my psychic has doubted me several times, whether I exist or not, and whether I exist or not.
Not an omnipotent god..."
"As a god, I become more and more humble and boring as I work. I have to be coveted by those evil spirits and have to deal with the conspiracies and schemes of other gods. It's really boring."
"Actually, I have long wanted to send away my current psychic, help her reincarnate, then disperse her body, and completely terminate myself. I would rather commit suicide than become the food of those evil spirits."
Having said this, God Bayan looked at Su Yi and said sincerely: "But I need a strong person to protect me, otherwise those evil spirits will rush up and eat me before I can kill myself."
This request from God Bayan was something Su Yi didn't even expect.
God Bayan actually wants to disappear completely and commit suicide?
He wanted Su Yi to protect Him during this process, lest He could not even do this and be devoured by those evil heretics.
Su Yi thought for a while, but had no intention of persuading Bayang Shen to cheer up.
God Bayan just made it very clear that the reason why He wants to commit suicide is not only despair about the future, but also boredom and dissatisfaction with reality, and even doubts about his own existence.
The key is that Su Yi also thinks what he said makes sense. Unless Bayan God can break the stereotype and live a different attitude, it will just be like this now, just lingering on, which is really boring.
"When do you plan to disintegrate yourself?" Su Yi asked.
"Three days, three days from now." Bayan said, "In these three days, I want to help some believers fulfill their wishes, and I want my medium to deal with the aftermath. I have other things to deal with."
God Bayan suddenly knelt down to Su Yi, prostrated on the ground and said devoutly: "I beg the great God to protect my broken body and let me disappear into the heaven and earth. Don't let the evil spirits eat my body."
Su Yi felt an indescribable complex feeling in his heart.
Desolation, vicissitudes of life, compassion, sadness...
He is about to witness the end of a sacrifice to a spirit and a little country god.
Longevity, what exactly is longevity?
Is immortality a kind of enjoyment or a kind of torture?
If offering sacrifices to spirits cannot lead to immortality, can immortals live forever? Can immortality be immortalized?
"Okay, in three days, I will witness all this with my own eyes." Su Yi said solemnly.
"Thank you so much, God." God Bayan was a little pleased, but he also felt complicated and not so calm.
Obviously making such a decision was not easy for Him.
"It won't be too late to consider my matter after the great god has finished handling the affairs of the Asantia family." Bayan said, "In fact, Willow also begged me before his death, hoping that I could help him solve the curse. At that time, he
I haven’t married Noi yet.”
"But I didn't dare to get involved in the Asantia Textile Factory, so I didn't respond to him. Willow is a very talented and smart man, and he knows very well how to impress me. At the beginning, he promised that if I help
He, he built twelve temples for me in four towns and eight townships, and hired special temple worshipers to continue my incense. He also reported my name to the official as the folk culture of the entire Nantou County and passed it down from generation to generation...
…”
Su Yi was surprised when he heard this: "Then Willow knows it very well."
Each of the conditions mentioned by Willow accurately touched the pulse of the sacrificial spirit, and each of them just tickled the itch of Bayan God.
Being in a different place, Su Yi felt that if he were God Bayan, he would definitely be moved.
This is equivalent to giving hope to Bayan God to survive!
"You weren't tempted at that time?" Su Yi looked at Bayang Shen.
"How could you not be tempted?" God Bayan sighed, "But I can't fulfill his wish. I can't undo the curse of their family, and I don't dare to go to the Asantiya Textile Factory. I can only not
Respond to him, otherwise I, the God Bayan, would not have existed as early as that year."
God Bayan is really sober in the world.
"Willow married Noi again after begging you?" Su Yi suddenly noticed something was wrong.
From what Bayan God told us, it seems that this Willow is very smart, very courageous, and knows exactly what he wants.
How could he marry a stupid woman like Noi?
Because of love?
"Yes, this also made me very unhappy." Bayan said, "But since then, Willow has fallen into the arms of the Western Holy See. He built a cathedral for the Western Holy See. But it is impossible for the Western Holy See to help him eliminate
Curse, the priests of the Holy See have never been to the Asantia Textile Factory."
"Is Willow devout to the Western Holy See?" Su Yi asked.
"As far as I know, he is very pious." Bayan said.
"He is so pious, and he is still the financial backer behind the Holy See. There is no reason why his wife and daughter would be reduced to this situation." Su Yi felt something was wrong even more, "Although Aning's situation is difficult, if she has been rejected by the Western Holy See from beginning to end,
If she is given asylum, her situation will definitely be much better."
Although Su Yi doesn't like the Western Holy See, it is undeniable that the Western Holy See still has some abilities and can provide shelter for Noi's mother and daughter.
Even if the Vatican priest does not have the determination to eliminate the demon, he can still do it just by protecting the mother and daughter and preventing them from being destroyed by the demon.
Even if the priest here can't do it, they can send the mother and daughter to the cathedral and find a more capable priest to help them. If the cathedral's heritage is there, there is no way they can do anything about it.
But the problem is that the mother and daughter have no intention of asking for help from the Holy See. It seems that aside from the relationship between their husbands, their relationship with the Holy See is very delicate. Noi would even rather go around the world to find other practitioners for help instead of asking the Holy See.
Ask for help.
Su Yi previously thought it was a trust issue, that Noi and her daughter did not trust the Holy See.
But now that I think about it carefully, maybe it's not that simple.
If there is really another reason for this, then maybe Su Yi hasn't seen the truth yet...
Seeing that Su Yi was thoughtful, God Bayan did not interrupt, but contacted his medium Nim and issued his own oracle.
God Bayan has already planned to disintegrate himself, so the oracle he gave to Nim is to let Nim face the deadline calmly and handle his funeral affairs.
But in the process, God Bayan discovered that Anin had driven to find Nimue, and at the same time he ordered Nimue to bring Anin to the temple to see Him today.
After doing this, Su Yi seemed to have come to his senses, and Bayang Shen told Su Yi about the matter.
"The mountain road from Nim's house to here is rugged. I guess they may not hit the road until dawn." Bayan said.
After all, we are mortals, so we have to consider the safety of the route. This journey requires trekking through mountains and rivers, and we can only walk on foot. It is too dark to walk.
Su Yi said: "I have to go out and check some things."
He felt that although Willow was dead, he was full of doubts. He decided to go to the church that Willow funded.
"Your Majesty, please." Bayan said, "If Aning arrives first, I will ask Nimu to take her to purify her mind and chant sutras, waiting for your return."
Su Yi nodded slightly and disappeared from where he was.
At the same time, Nim's residence was more than ten kilometers away.
Nim woke up from his sleep and realized that tears were streaming down his face!
She had a dream, a nightmare.
She dreamed that the revered god Bayan was calling her.
Bayan God told her that it was time to be rewarded for everything she had done for God in her life. Bayan God asked her to deal with all the things left in the world within three days, and then go to the temple and return to Bayan God.
into the arms of.
She asked the god Bayan: "Am I going to die?"
God Bayan told her that death is not the end, but the beginning of another life. Her practice in this life won her the pure land of the next life, which was a gift from God Bayan.
When she was about to ask again in fear, why she was suddenly going to die even though she was not sick or suffering from any disaster, God Bayan told her, your niece Aning is here, please bring her to the temple.
After God Bayan said these words, Nim woke up.
This dream was so clear and real that Nim could not doubt it, but she was very frightened and at a loss.
Anyone who is not yet in good health but is still young and is told without any warning that the end of his life has come will probably be so panicked and at a loss.
A knock on the door interrupted Nim's thoughts. Nim thought of the last words of God Bayan and hurriedly got out of bed, put on his shoes and opened the door.
Sure enough, her niece Aning was standing outside the door.
To Nim's surprise, Aning looked good.
Although Aning looks a little haggard, she is healthy.
Nimu touched An Ning's arm in disbelief and found that his arm was warm. This showed that An Ning's consciousness was now pure and had not been disturbed by any dirty things.
This is incredible.
Nim was shocked.
Not long ago, Aning was troubled by evil spirits and couldn't get rid of them. Nim was also very distressed about this and didn't know what to do.
But now, Aning is fine?
Evil spirits don't go away on their own, so what happened?
"Aunt, I would like to ask you to take me to see Bayang God." Aning went straight to the point and explained his purpose.
Nim's heart was shaken.
"Is your mother okay with this?" she asked.
Noi has been preventing Nim from getting close to An Ning, thinking that Nim will seduce An Ning into believing in the god Bayan.
Therefore, Aning has never worshiped Bayan God, and has never been to Bayan God's temple.
"Where's your mother? Are you here alone?" Nim quickly realized something was wrong.
Aning looked gloomy, shook his head and refused to say more: "Aunt, I just want to see Bayan God."
"Come in first." Nim sighed, "No matter what, we have to wait until dawn. I'll get you something to eat first."
She invited An Ning into the house, but couldn't help but ask: "An Ning, have you asked other magicians to exorcise you? I heard that your mother took you to Hong Kong Island, and the magicians in Hong Kong Island have already helped you.
Are you there? I think you are in very good condition..."
"Really?" Aning was a little distracted, "Aunt, when do we set off?"
"It will be daylight in half an hour, and we will set off then." Seeing this, Nim had no choice but to suppress her curiosity. She was also very confused at the moment because of the "oracle" and was in no mood to ask further questions.
Half an hour later, Aning, who barely ate something, followed Nimu into the mountains under the drizzle.
Both of them were confused and anxious, not knowing what kind of future awaited them during this trip.
On the other side, Renai Township Cathedral.
This is the largest church in Nantou County. It is gorgeously decorated and has a tall building. It looks very majestic from the outside.
People often think of "appearance", and sometimes just because of the decoration style, it will affect people's beliefs.
This church has developed well in recent years, with more and more believers.
Because of the cohesion of faith, although the church was built not many years ago, it already possesses sacred power.
The arrival of Su Yi, the "evil heretic", immediately aroused a fierce reaction from the church's guardian forces!
The bell on the top of the church suddenly rang, and the cross opposite the door suddenly emitted a holy light, shining on Su Yi's body.
The hexagonal star array on the top of the church was activated, covering the entire building, and the sound of a choir singing seemed to be floating in the air.
Sizzling, sizzling...
Su Yi's body was illuminated by the holy light, and black smoke was emitted, but at most it only made him feel a little uncomfortable.
The formation in the church was useless to Su Yi. He walked into the formation easily and looked around curiously, especially at the huge statue in front of him.
The sound of rapid footsteps came from the side door. Someone was awakened and hurried over to check.
Su Yi did not look at this man, but stood in front of the statue and bowed before him.
Burn incense in temples and worship Buddha in temples.
When you come to someone else's territory, no matter what his preference and attitude towards the Western Holy See, you still have to have the respect you deserve.
After doing this, Su Yi's situation has not changed at all.
Su Yi turned around and his eyes finally fell on the man who hurried out to investigate the situation.
This is a disheveled foreigner in pajamas.
The foreigner was staring at Su Yi dumbfounded, his expression full of horror, and his whole body was shaking.
He didn't dare not shake. Whether it was the appearance of Su Yi's jade skull or the arrogance of looking at the church's Holy Light Array as if it were nothing, he was horrified to the extreme.
This foreigner has never encountered such an outrageous thing in his life.
