Yin Jie's eyes flashed with doubt: "You know?"

"Tell me. Who was that man just now?" Lu Han looked very anxious, the Puyol family? Could it be that it is the powerful European family that is involved in the killing group?

Yin Jie hesitated, he looked through the crack in the door and looked outside, there was jealousy and a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

"That man is the new head of the Puyol family, Marco Puyol, and the woman next to him is his goddaughter, Tang Yuan. ”

"Dry ...... Goddaughter??" Lu Han was almost shocked to the ground, he was really startled, shocked, shocked, and even panicked, all kinds of emotions were intertwined, he didn't expect Tang Yuan to have such a relationship with the Puyol family.

What to do?

Lu Han's body was a little stiff, the fight just now finally made the blood boil a little, and now it cooled down rapidly, he was like falling into an ice cellar, the transparent cold wrapped him, he didn't know what to do, whether he should continue to carry out the mission, whether he should kill Tang Yuan, he was very confused now.

"What's wrong with you, are you okay?" Although Yin Jie's voice was as cold as ever, there was a hint of concern in her eyes.

Lu Han nodded absentmindedly, his eyes were a little hollow, and he finally came back to his senses, and saw Yin Jie's concerned appearance at a glance, and blurted out: "Yin Jie, thank you." ”

Lu Han suddenly thanked for no reason, Yin Jie's face flushed, and she quickly put her head down, her eyelashes were trembling, and her lips seemed to move, but the voice was too small to be heard clearly.

The atmosphere between the two of them was a little awkward, even weird, as if they still couldn't mind the previous things, of course, the most embarrassing thing was Lu Han, he was not invited after all, and now that he appeared here, he was very weak-hearted.

"By the way, why are you here?" Lu Han hurriedly changed the subject.

"I came for my grandfather, who wasn't in very good health. Yin Jie changed her solemn tone and continued: "Puyol held this party with some kind of religious intention, probably similar to the oath meeting, but I don't know what to do, I also came with my friends. ”

"It's Li Ruihao, you've seen it. Yin Jie quickly added: "His family has business dealings with our family, which can be regarded as world friends." ”

Lu Han nodded, didn't speak, he saw through the crack in the door, there were many people gathered in the hall, crowded, and the guests dancing and drinking outside also came in, adding up to almost two or three hundred people, standing in the hall densely, it seemed crowded, Lu Han paid careful attention to everyone's facial expressions, and found that they were all extremely excited, their eyes were shining, the music had already stopped at this moment, they no longer talked, no longer whispered, but looked at the front expectantly.

The first to stand is, of course, Marcol Puyol, Tang Yuan stood beside him, behind them, there was a statue of Jesus, Lu Han didn't notice just now, this statue is directly engraved on the wall, not stained, it is the picture of Jesus at the time of the crucifixion, Jesus was nailed on the huge cross, two vultures fell on the cross, pecking at his flesh, Jesus' face was painful, and he looked faintly gloomy.

To tell the truth, although Lu Han is not a religious element, he also respects religion, and he believes that everyone has the freedom of their own beliefs, which is normal.

But I don't know what's going on, he always feels that this place is eerie, filled with a terrifying feeling, just like a tomb or a crematorium, this statement may be exaggerated, but this feeling is really bad, subconsciously, he even wants to leave here, wants to kill Tang Yuan quickly, and escape from here.

However, the guests outside didn't seem to feel this way, everyone was very indifferent, even excited, and their eager expressions were very eye-catching, as if they were expecting something, everyone waited for a moment, looking ahead. Among these people, there are many models, successful businessmen, and even big Hollywood stars, Lu Han has seen their faces in pictorial magazines, they are very familiar, but they can't name them.

"They're waiting for the Pope to appear. Yin Jie suddenly whispered behind her.

"Pope?" Lu Han was a little stunned when he heard these two words.

Yin Jie is now like a tour guide, explaining little by little: "The Pope was invited from the Vatican for this religious event, and he is responsible for presiding over the evening party. ”

Lu Han still knows something about the Pope, the Pope claims to be the living representative of Christ, has supreme rights, and is the spiritual leader of Catholics. Most of them are knowledgeable and highly prestigious, and they are for life. The election of a new pope is a sacred and solemn event. The requirements for the candidate are very strict, and they need to go through a multi-level, step-by-step formal study and years of training, and finally they must obtain a certificate from the Vatican Bible College to become a priest and later become a cardinal archbishop of the diocese. Elections were held in constituencies all over the world, and in the end, 117 archbishops gathered in the Sistine Chapel to participate in the elections in isolation, and the competition was fierce.

However, there has been a lot of negative news about the church in recent times, I heard that they have more and more power, and then participate in politics, and then interfere in the government, even some gangs have underground transactions, many of which are directly involved in the church, and even more rumors that the manufacture of nuclear weapons are inseparable from the Pope's thoughts.

Therefore, the political leaders of Eastern Europe do not dare to have too much contact with religious elements, and they are afraid that those popes will participate in politics or fanatical religious elements will do something out of the ordinary, after all, the lessons of the past are too profound.

While he was thinking, the hall suddenly became noisy, and many people in religious service suddenly burst out of the small doors on both sides.

Dressed in a wide white robe, with a huge red shawl around their chests, eight men entered, four on the left and four on the right, all of them old men with gray hair, in the hall full of Americans, the characteristic silhouette of the Europeans made them look a little abrupt, but this did not have any effect, they moved quickly in a row, one hand on their chest, their faces reverent, their expressions meticulous.

"The cardinal archbishop of their Vatican church was also invited by Puyol. ”

This Lu Han still knows that the Pope is the supreme leader of the Church, and his power is even more than that of the secular monarch, and the bishop is only his subordinate, divided into cardinal archbishops, archbishops, and bishops, these are the nobles in the church, but their rights are far inferior to the Pope, and their relationship is almost equal to that of the secular emperor and ministers.

At the same time, a group of people suddenly appeared on the second floor, this time not religious people, but all big men, they were tall, uniformly wearing black robes, and even wearing black hoods on their heads, only exposing their nostrils and two eyes, they moved very quickly, the pace was consistent and very neat, standing quickly, one person every five meters, with hands behind their backs, a bulging pistol pinned to their waists, the expression on their faces was very cold, and their sharp eyes faintly had traces of soldiers.

A total of forty big men appeared on the second and third floors, which made the already solemn atmosphere even more weird, but the guests didn't seem to care at all, and they didn't even look up, still maintaining a high state of excitement, staring straight ahead.

The eight cardinals bowed their heads slightly, their eyes closed, their faces flashed with rigor, they sang something in a low voice, the characters did not look like English or French, similar to the chanting of the choir, the syllables were very weird, very obscure, and even made people feel a little angry when they listened to it.

A strange scene appeared, when the eight cardinals were singing, half of the people in the audience showed pious expressions, touched their chests with one hand, lowered their heads and sang along, while the other half of the people did not sing, but they also showed a cautious look, not smiling, at this moment the audience was shrouded in a religious light, but the strange thing was that Lu Han did not have the slightest sense of holiness or sacredness, only felt very gloomy and terrifying......

Lu Han looked at Tang Yuan, he was already standing in the first row with Puyol, the same reverent bowed his head, and there were words in his mouth, not far away, Sun Danni and Xiaogui stood in the middle of the crowd, they had no choice but to pretend to bow their heads and sing together.

The atmosphere of the scene suddenly became terrifying, and Lu Han even had an illusion that those strange and hideous portraits on the ceiling would suddenly come to life and become real living creatures.

glanced at Yin Jie beside her, she didn't have the indifference just now, staring at the front very carefully, neither of them moved, and no one spoke, listening to this particularly harsh chant together.

The chant was very short, more than a minute, after singing, the eight cardinals took the lead in lowering their hands, and only then did the following dare to raise their heads, and a bishop standing in the middle suddenly stepped forward, stretched out his hands, chanted the words, and then shouted loudly in French: "#¥@#%@¥%"

The audience immediately shouted excitedly, and the dullness and gloom just now were swept away, almost bursting the atmosphere of the entire hall, and they seemed to be crazy, and instantly fell into a sea of jubilation...... You can't imagine gentlemen and ladies in Versace and Chanel brands yelling hysterically and wildly in front of you, and you can't imagine them jumping and jumping like a holiday, not caring about their image at all.

This is utter madness.

Lu Han frowned, because he didn't understand French. However, the cardinal's sentence should be to invite whoever appears.

When he was wondering, suddenly, a thin figure slowly walked from the second floor, and there were two black-hooded men behind him, step by step, slowly walking down from the second floor, his speed was very slow, but he was very imposing, as if every step down, even the atmosphere was a little more serious.

When he actually walked down the stairs and came to the eight cardinals, Lu Han began to take a good look at him.

He was supposed to be the Pope. How so...... It can only be said that it is very ordinary, in terms of momentum, it is not even as majestic as the cardinal behind him, he is about 60 years old, his white hair is close to his scalp, he wears a pair of round gold-wire glasses, he wears a white robe that reaches the ankles, there are shawls, buttons, very cumbersome clothes, and then he also wears a cross necklace around his neck, which is engraved with the image of the crucifixion, and in his hand he holds a scepter that symbolizes power, which is golden, and is engraved with an unknown pattern, dense, like some kind of totem.

To be honest, this pope feels really ordinary to Lu Han, with a bit of Sven temperament, not like a pope, but like a white-haired professor in a university.

He rushed down and beckoned, which immediately drew hysterical cheers, and their faces were full of fanatical worship of religion, and their eyes were full of excitement and excitement, and many even fell to one knee and shed pious tears, hiding their faces and weeping.

Lu Han was really shocked by this scene, he didn't understand what was wrong with these people, religious beliefs could have such great power, although most of these people were handsome guys and beauties, and they were wearing famous brands and dressed up brightly, but at this moment, they were very like primitive people, uneasy commotion, yelling without scruples, not like a normal person at all.

The Pope, who was standing on the stage, seemed to be very satisfied with this, and smiled, but this smile seemed to have a strange taste now......

He lifted the scepter and pressed it down slightly, and the scene immediately fell silent, and those who were crying and crying were also helped to their feet.

The Pope then smiled inscrutablely, and then said: "Good night, brothers and sister......s! We're all here, though...... Thank you for your welcome. ”

This time it was in English, Lu Han could generally understand it, but the difficult meaning and pronunciation still made him incomprehensible, he looked at Yin Jie, his eyes also flashed with puzzlement and doubt, it seems that she, like himself, has a little distrust of this pope.

There were bursts of cheers from the audience, but much quieter than before, and when the silence had calmed down, the Pope spoke again: "First of all, I wish to pray for us for this filthy world. We all pray for it, may God bless the earth, and may Our Lady take care of us. Let's ...... The bishops and the people of God begin this journey, a journey in which the Church of Rome has taken the lead in charity for all the Churches. This is our journey in brotherhood, in love, and in mutual trust. ”

There was a pause. He slowly chanted a short poem, and then he said again: "Let us pray once again, for the saints who have been favored by God this time, it is they who ...... It is they who bring us peace and peace, they who rebaptize the world, and we thank them and God. ”

This time he said that he did not shout again in the audience, and all of them bowed their heads and remained silent, singing the unknown song in their mouths.

The strange notes seemed to be substantial, penetrating the eardrums and spreading all over the body, Lu Han was very unaccustomed to this obscure tone, his heart was beating very fast, he was very panicked, and he was about to jump out of his throat, this feeling made him very uncomfortable.
