Li Zhilang recalled while walking, and unconsciously came to the door of the Church of Our Lady on Minsheng West Street. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking at the comparison of the surrounding modern high-rise buildings, the original tall church looks much lower. However, the huge triangular glass wall facing it is like sunlight falling from the sky, illuminating the earth and warming the world, and the magnificence and majesty are still there.

The passage of a hundred years has left traces on the walls of the towering granite Mochizuki Tower, making it more quaint and sacred, and making people have an urge to join and worship.

Li Zhilang gently pushed open the heavy door of the church, painted a cross with holy water in the holy water basin next to the door, and sanctually washed his hands and face. Surrounded by the very familiar smell of frankincense and myrrh, the nervous body and mind immediately relaxed as if they had been refreshed.

Kneel down the altar along the slightly sloping passageway. In front of me were still the spotless incense burners and flickering candles of the smoking cigarettes. With warmth and tranquility in my heart, I looked up at the cross hanging high on the wall. Li Zhilang drew a cross on his chest, then lowered his head and silently prayed for thanksgiving.

After praying, Li Zhilang stood up and walked to a small door from the left side of the altar. I knocked lightly on the door three times and it opened. I saw Father Jiang Sen, who was dressed in black robes, smiling lovingly and opening his arms to himself.

"Good morning! My Lord bless you, my dear child! Father Jiang Sen said.

Li Zhilang accepted the priest's hug, and then respectfully bowed down and kissed the ring on the priest's hand.

"Good morning, Dear Godfather! May the Lord be with you. ”

Father Jiang Sen beckoned to Li Zhilang and said, "Come on, child, you must not have eaten in the morning." I left you bread, strawberry jam and bacon. Saying that, he added in a mischievous smacking eye, "It's your favorite real Canadian bacon, fried just right." ”

Li Zhilang immediately felt that he was back in elementary school and Andreas ran hungry after school and stole bread and jam in the kitchen.

At that time, I just thought that the priest was careless, and there were always baked bread, cheese and jam left on the kitchen table. Later, when I grew up, I learned that this was all deliberately left by the priest to these two naughty ghosts who were always hungry faster than anyone else.

With the same affection as his father, Li Zhilang followed the priest to the back kitchen and dining room. The familiar smell of onions, tomatoes and cream, mixed with the sweet aroma of coffee and roses, eased Li Zhilang's tense nerves.

Coming to the table, the priest listened to Li Zhilang's account of last night's battle with the Poison Sect while putting food such as bacon, cheese, and bread on the table. Li Zhilang only then felt that he was really hungry. So he hurriedly prayed, then took up the fork, and without waiting for the priest's invitation, he eagerly began to destroy everything on the table.

Father Jiang Sen quietly listened to Li Zhilang's narration and watched Li Zhilang sweep away the sumptuous breakfast on the table. Then he asked, "My child, do you want anything?" ”

Li Zhilang poured himself a cup of coffee and said, "Thank you, godfather, I'm full." ”

Father Jiang Sen nodded and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Li Zhilang thought for a while and replied: "The family has sent an order for a thorough investigation. Last night, the North Palace was attacked again. This matter is not a hasty matter in the family's practice. Godfather, you also know that the law of separation of immortals in the Chinese cultivation realm has its own rules for punishing evil demons who do not respect the precepts.

You, Godfather, have also taught me to pass on the gospel of the Lord's preservation of peace in the world. The Holy Knights have a mission to send evil spirits to hell to the demons who come to the world to do evil. Therefore, after finding out the truth, we will definitely take the necessary action based on the factual evidence. However, I still need to follow the family's arrangement. ”

"So what evidence do you have now?"

"Although there is only a suspicion at the moment, Hi has not found any legal evidence. But the fight I participated in last night at the North Palace. Among them, it can be speculated that at least the attack on Beigong has a certain connection with the Red Fang 3 company. ”

Father Jiang Sen looked at Li Zhilang, paused for a moment and said, "Zhilang, you have been studying in the church since kindergarten and elementary school, and you should know that your school is next to the Holy Mother Charity Hospital. ”

Seeing Li Zhilang nodding and looking at himself questioningly, he continued: "Maybe you can still remember the bombing of Taipei City on May 31, 1945, which killed more than 3,000 citizens in Taipei?" Just 75 days later, at noon on August 14, 1945, the Emperor of Japan announced his surrender. After 84 days,

World War II ended on September 2, 1945.

3,000 lives! My Lord forgive me! Just 84 more days, ah! Even 75 days can save 3,000 lives.

Could it be that the person who gave the order for the air raid did not know what was going on 84 days later, and that 3,000 civilian lives would have to be paid? O Lord! Who exactly needs these 3,000 lives? These 3,000 souls? ”

Father Jiang Sen's white-haired head could not withstand this great sadness, and he couldn't help but be pressed down.

"Our church was also reduced to ashes in this bombing." Li Zhilang said softly.

For a long time I heard the priest whispering the scriptures of the transcendent soul and the clicking of the beads. After a moment, the priest continued in a low voice, "Do you know that less than two blocks from here is the headquarters of the Taiwan branch of Red Fang 3? ”

Li Zhilang also nodded, and Father Jiang Sen said with great difficulty: "It's really unimaginable! It's been 8 months. There's simply nothing we can do about it. ”

"What's going on?" Li Zhilang asked in surprise.

"Alas! Forgive me, my lord! Eight months ago, the mortality rate at Our Notre Dame Charity Hospital was gradually increasing. Our doctors and nurses have tried their best to make no difference. Many of the deaths have occurred that cannot be explained by medical science. So the abbot came to the church to look for me.

O my lord! Please give me wisdom. Son, I went to see it. As you said, the dead are reduced to dried corpses and their souls are gone. As a last resort, we had to set up an exorcism array in the hospital.

Fortunately, things improved immediately. Until a month ago, the situation began to deteriorate again. It is enough to see that the power of the evil spirits is rapidly increasing. The Exorcism Array can no longer fully resist the invasion of evil spirits. After a pause, the priest drew a cross on his chest.

"Doesn't the church have a stronger way to deal with it? We have Templars and Paladins! ”

The priest nodded and said, "My child! You know what we're good at is relieving souls from suffering. The Holy Light Charm is primarily used for healing, not killing. High-level paladins can wield a cross sword and activate the Holy Light Cross Sword Spell, but they can slay demons, but they need to have a clear target to fight.

In a situation like the present, our adversary is called 'chasing the wind and catching the shadow' in your Chinese words. We're not good at dealing with uncertain adversaries. Only ......"

"Godfather, only what? Is there any other way? Li Zhilang asked.
