Chapter 13

God, the supreme being, has set His own destiny for everything in the world. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Born in the light, walking under the light, it is destined to become the coveting of darkness, and those who hide in the darkness and have been silently gathering strength and seeking a breakthrough are destined to break through the shackles.

The wood is beautiful in the forest and the wind will destroy it, and the stone will eventually fall on the dangerous peak. Prosperity in the front, will decline in the future, and the people's hearts will be turned back, which determines the final victory.

The holy city of Sistria, which is the heart of the Mauryan Celestial Cult and the pearl of the palm of the entire country. It has always been a place of faith since it was first built under the leadership of the first pope and later when devout believers came to worship here.

Sacred vessels, icons, trinkets with magical blessings fill the streets here. Walking in it, feeling the peculiar customs of this place, it is difficult to tell whether it is quiet or weird in people's hearts.

Dumb led Anne swaggering down the streets. Anne looked at the vendors on the side of the road and felt that something was not quite right.

"Is it that the people here are too quiet, or are the people here too laid-back......" The eyes of the vendors around her seemed to be different from those in other places, but what was the difference, Anne couldn't tell.

"Jakes, are we going to the cathedral here?" said Anne, who had finally mustered up the courage to ask Dumb a question.

Dumb glanced at Anne and shook his head.

"And where are we going?"

Dumb didn't answer, but just looked at the pyramid-shaped building in the center of the city.

Yes, you should first tell yourself about your sins and ask God for forgiveness. Anne smiled slightly, stepped forward, and affectionately grabbed Dumb's arm.

Dumb turned his head to look at Anne and didn't say anything. The two men held this position until they walked to the side of the pyramid-shaped building.

It was overcrowded, and many were kneeling on the ground, eyes closed, hands folded, and praying reverently.

Anne found a place where no one was and knelt down.

"Great God, believer Anne prays to you and hears my voice. Anne thought silently in her heart, as the rest of the believers did, and pleaded with all her heart.

"Okay, I promise you!" a voice shouted, a man in tattered Celestial Cult magic robes sitting on the relatively high steps of the pyramid.

"Did God answer me?" said Anne, surprised and delighted at the cries. But when his head reacted, he realized that it was a dirty madman sitting on a high place, yelling at the people below.

"When you come here, you know that you listen to the voice of God, is God always by your side, don't you know?" The madman stared at his eyes, looking like he was the only one in the world, and his voice was so loud that it shook people's ears.

"What's the matter with this man?" said Anne, surprised at what he had said, but the man was covered in dirt and clearly blasphemous.

"This madman has been in this place all along. Always speaking prophetic words, claiming to be an angel of God. But his mind is not normal, so those of us who live here have long been accustomed to it!" A man next to him was talking, and someone around him walked in the direction of the madman, and when the madman saw someone approaching him, he immediately became insane, and with his fists and kicks, he kicked the people who were near him to the ground.

"Oops!" the man who had been kicked to the ground cried out loud and in pain, and many people around him came to visit.

"Look, I'm right! This guy is a madman, attacking others and honoring himself. The people next to them watched Anne and Dumb shrug helplessly, stepped forward, and joined in comforting the injured.

Anne sighed at this. I thought I had run into a messenger of God, but I didn't expect to run into a mentally abnormal person when I ran into the ground.

Looking at the man, Dumb stopped and looked up and down. After stopping for a long time, I finally chose to turn around and go in the direction of the cathedral.

Anne followed, a little confused and a little lost. After all, I finally arrived at the main altar, and I should have had a good look and pray there. Dumb's sudden departure completely disrupted his thoughts.

"Follow Jakes, you can't go wrong with Jakes!" A voice in her heart guided, and Anne chose to listen to the voice of her heart, and came to the cathedral of the holy city of Sisteria with Dumb.

I saw that the cathedral in Sisteria was built differently from the cathedrals in other places. The whole cathedral seems to have been carved out of a single mountain stone, and there is not the slightest gap between the bricks. The doors, windows and walls of the church are carved with all kinds of strange reliefs. Anne looked intently and saw what the patterns seemed to mean. To the left of the main entrance of the church there is a relief of a knight riding a horse with his clothes covered with flowers and a huge cup in his hand, with the horse's head looking down, a hill in front of it, and a river on the road in front of the horse. To the right of the main entrance of the church, there is a relief of a guard standing with his back to the door, holding a scepter and three hills at his feet. Directly above the gate there is a relief in the shape of a heart, through which three swords pierce, and above the sword is a cloud.

"These reliefs are supposed to convey something. Something flashed through her mind, what seemed to be some image, and Anne looked at the reliefs with a slight stunned look.

Dumb glanced back at Anne and walked into the cathedral.

"Bell, bell, bell, bell......" The church bell rings, disturbing people's thoughts. The thirteen bells are a little unsettling.

Anne cleared her mind and followed Dumb.

An eerie and cold wind blew out of the church, bringing with it a slight fishy smell. Anne felt a slight darkness in front of her eyes, and stepped into the strangely shaped church. Like the outside of the church, the walls of the church are also relief carvings of different shapes and strange patterns.

Having just approached the relatively dark church from the outside, Anne's eyes could not fully adjust to the light inside. After she blinked and got used to it, Anne searched the scene in front of her.

"It's messy, it's really messy. That was Anne's first feeling.

The chairs in the church are arranged in a mess and staggered, and it is impossible to see what shape it is. In the center of the hall is a fallen chandelier, and the floor is covered with fragments of metal and unknown objects. There were a lot of black, sticky-looking things stuck to the walls, chairs, and piles on the floor. That's where the disgusting fishy smell comes from.

"Gross!" Anne felt a wave of nausea and almost threw up. I was nauseous for a long time, probably because I hadn't eaten much before, so it was nothing serious.

"I didn't expect anyone to come here!" a hoarse and uncomfortable voice came, and a man with a bloody face, ragged clothes, and a bloodstained body came over with a lamp.

"Ahh

"Strange! what are you doing here?" the man squinted, looking at Dumb and Anne.

"Old man, is this the church of the Celestial Gods?" Anne asked, looking at Dumb.

"Celestial church, why are you asking this?" the man's eyes flashed, and his hand holding the lantern clenched.

"That's right," Anne blinked, quickly devising how to reply, "we are Celestials, and we have come to Sisteria to pay homage to the miracles. So we wanted to find a church to rest and rest. ”

"Celestial Cult?!" the man muttered, his eyes flickering from side to side in the slits of his eyes.

"You're in the wrong place! The church here has moved. Go out and look carefully, and the new big black house in the city is the new church. Where are you going, it's okay to hang around here. Like the owner of this dilapidated church, the man gave the order to evict the guest in a vicious tone, turned around and walked into the church.

"Jakes!" Anne called Dumb, meaning to ask Dumb for his opinion.

Dumb raised his head and took a closer look at the entire church. Then he turned to look at Anne, made a helpless gesture, and left the church.

"It seems that we have come at a bad time. When Anne came out, she seemed to be talking to herself, and it was like talking to Dumb.

"Almighty God, we love you like dogs love cats, cats love fish, fish love shrimp......" The distinctive singing sounded, and the lyrics drew Anne and Dumb to look back.

Several rows of locals dressed in the black magic robes of the Celestial Cult sang loudly, holding aloft their staffs and scriptures such as "The Divine Sayings", and marched through the streets as if they were demonstrating.

"Shall we go over and have a look, or they can take us to a new church?" Anne asked for Dumbland's opinion.

Dumb gave Anne a strange look, pulled Anne, and the two walked after the singer to the church in the unknown land.
