Chapter 55: Two Corpses
According to Hebrew legend, the 'heavens' were divided into nine tiers, each of which was divided into a unit, and these triples constituted a true system of separate hierarchies equal among its members. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The front of the info throne revolves around the nine-tiered angel group. The Seraph, in the innermost layer, is the existence of pure light, closest to God, and the further it goes, the weaker the power of light becomes, and gradually materializes.
―――――――――― "The System of Heavenly Steps" (Dionysus).
"The soul of a living man?!" George clearly felt incredible, how could angels be made of human souls as spirits that serve God?
"Or, to put me another way, angels are spirits made by God taking the souls of living people, and the bodies are reassembled from human bodies and the bodies of some animals, and the two become one and become angels." André excitedly touched the notch on the sarcophagus, his belief in God was not as unwavering as George's. Rather than praying for God's forgiveness and forgiveness, he would rather atone for his sins, so he really has no interest in the Holy See and the Holy See's brainwashing to sing the praises of God, he is an elegant gentleman, yes, but sometimes he is most interested in uncovering the hypocritical masks and lies of the Holy See. Well, he admitted, he was just a madman, a madman who only believed that the world was ugly!
"Oh no! You must be lying to me! I must be dreaming, dreaming! George refused to believe André's statement, covering his eyes and hypnotizing, telling himself over and over again that it was all a dream.
Andre shrugged his shoulders indifferently, this is the case, he had also advised him not to ask about the following matters, but he insisted on listening, and it was no wonder that he did.
"George, if you really can't accept what I'm saying, then please go back to the tomb and stay, I'm going to open the gates of the new world now."
"Oh my God! Your Highness, what do you want to do? As soon as George turned around, he saw André walking around the sarcophagus, then looking for a direction, and suddenly he offered his silver cross.
"Since you are here, you naturally want to see the real St. Peter!" The coffin in the cemetery under the papal altar is fake, even if it is the occasional holy exhibition of the Holy See, which exhibits the bones of the so-called St. Peter, it is also fake! What is fake is fake, and if you deceive others, you can't deceive him!
This time is different, this is not the fake St. Peter who doesn't know whose bones it is, what is lying here is eight or nine out of ten, but it is true, maybe there is such an opportunity in his life, how can he give up!
Andre's eyes narrowed slightly, clenched the silver cross sword in his hand, and with the help of the small beam of light above his head, he saw a gap, drank for a lifetime, and suddenly used the big sword in his hand to lift the sarcophagus. With a 'bang', the lid of the sarcophagus was cocked, flipped several times in mid-air, and landed at Andrei's feet.
"Oh my God, Your Highness Andrew, how did you really open the coffin!" When George saw Andre's movements, he screamed, as if he had forgotten the previous crisis of faith.
An indescribable smell came to his face, but fortunately, Andre covered his mouth and nose with a damp cloth in time, although he did not faint on the spot, but he still smoked enough.
What taste?!
Andre took a closer look, and was stunned, there were two skeletons in the sarcophagus, what was going on?
Seeing that Andre didn't move, George asked puzzledly, "Your Highness Andre, what's wrong with you?" ”
"I'm fine, but something happened in the coffin."
George listened, walked forward quickly and looked into the coffin, and was also stunned on the spot, listening to Andre's meaning, this is clearly the coffin of Pope St. Peter, but how can there be two bones inside, is St. Peter two people?
A thought suddenly flashed through George's mind, and he exclaimed excitedly, "Your Highness, this is not the coffin of Pope St. Peter!" There are two skeletons here! ”
Andrei ignored him, and picked up the burial items inside with his big sword, a skeleton clearly exuded the same spiritual power as on the Shroud of the Holy Lord Jesus, how could it not be the bones of St. Peter.
One of the two skeletons was a little messy, and some of the bones were even broken, scattered randomly in the coffin. But it still exudes warm spiritual power from time to time, although it is very weak, but it is undeniable that it exists, and there are shallow scratches on the bones of the feet, hands, and throat, which are estimated to be scratches driven into by long nails.
St. Peter was crucified by Emperor Nero because he did not deserve to die in the same way as the Lord, so he was crucified headfirst. The marks on the bones also show that what is recorded in the literature is true.
The other one was relatively well preserved, sitting in the coffin with his head down, and there were still some bits and pieces of white cloth left on his body, Andrei jumped up and touched it with his hand, and it turned out to be oriental silk!
The silk fragments can also be seen embroidered with gold threads, vaguely recognizable, it is a rose flower, under the cloth, Andrei also found a hat, it is composed of two pieces of hard cloth in the shape of triangular melon seeds, paved with gold wire or decorated with precious stones, about thirty centimeters high, with two streamers behind it, hanging behind the back.
Andre was stunned, this is too familiar to him and George, this is the high crown worn by the popes on official occasions!
And that white silk fragment, is the Pope's gown?! Could it be the remains of a pope!
Andre hurriedly went to dig through the hand bones hidden under the silk, and when he opened the silk, the left hand bone appeared intact in front of Andrei's eyes, and there was indeed a ring on his slender finger, which was the same as the ring used by ordinary people, but slightly wider.
The center of the ring is a rose flower carved from a natural emerald, the notches are a little worn, but the luster of the gemstone still shines even next to the corpse that has been reduced to bones.
"Quan Jie?!" George also recognized what Andre was staring at, "This is His Majesty the Pope?!" ”
The precept is the papal authority and the sign of the covenant. It is no longer necessary to seal the ring on official documents, but there is also a matter of authorizing the ordination in the liturgy of the consecrated bishop. Before the reign of Bosat I, there was a custom that the faithful had to kiss the bishop's precept when saluting the bishop, so the rose precept showed signs of wear. However, this custom was gradually abolished at the insistence of Bersat I.
If this is a pope, it is definitely a pope before Bersat I.
What about the scepter?
André rummaged through all the silks, but could not find the scepter, which symbolized the papal status and pastoral duties.
Did he guess wrong?
"Rose Ring......" George looked at the Rose Ring in amazement. (To be continued.) )
