Chapter 30: Church Healing
At night, when the moonlit streets seemed a little cold, Lydia led Mo Yu to a building with a spire of about five stories high and pointed arches, and the occasional passer-by or two along the way, seeing Lydia's mother's situation, also avoided it from a distance, for fear of infecting herself.
Seeing Lydia stop, Mo Yu asked, "Is this here?"
Lydia nodded, returned to Mo Yu's side, and walked towards the door of the building together. But a figure stood in front of Mo Yu and them.
"It's you kid who doesn't know what to do, and you said that you don't want to make trouble here if you don't have money. A tall, thin middle-aged man in church clothes stood in front and sneered.
Lydia immediately hid behind Mo Yu, as if she was afraid that the tall and thin middle-aged man in front of her should have been here before, and the middle-aged man had done something embarrassing to her.
"Get out of the way, we're going inside. Mo Yu said coldly.
The middle-aged man finally realized that the black-haired boy had come with the child. The black-haired boy was dressed in ordinary clothes, and he was holding a woman with puscesses on her legs. The woman in the young man's hand made the middle-aged man feel very disgusted, and he hurriedly retreated five or six steps back, and said coldly with a disgusted expression on his face: "Get out of here quickly, and come back to church tomorrow morning to pray." ”
Lydia hurriedly shouted, "No, we have the money, and we have come to the priest for treatment." ”
The middle-aged man said with contempt: "Are you dressed like people who have money to heal? ”
"I told you to get out of the way, are you deaf?" Mo Yu said in a deep voice.
When the middle-aged man heard Mo Yu's words, he immediately became angry and said loudly: "Boy, this place is not something you can be presumptuous. ”
"Don't get out of the way, don't blame me for being rude to you. Mo Yu looked at the middle-aged man coldly.
"Haha, do you know what this place is? As long as you dare to do it here, don't think about having a priest help you treat you when you are injured in the future. The middle-aged man scoffed.
Mo Yu didn't care about this, and was about to teach this bullying middle-aged man a lesson, when an old voice came from the church: "Let the people outside come in." ”
The middle-aged man responded, "I'm afraid of disturbing Your Excellency's rest." ”
"It's okay, let them in. ”
"Got it, Lord Hicks" Although the middle-aged man responded to Hicks on his lips, he cursed inwardly: "Damn, why did this old guy suddenly appear, doesn't he usually pay attention to all the affairs of the church?"
"Good luck to you, if you hear it, the Lord of Hicks has called you in. The middle-aged man said coldly.
Mo Yu didn't pay attention to the clown in front of him at all, and led Lydia to the church.
Entering the church is like entering an ancient temple. I saw that this cathedral is made of polished marble, and the carvings inside and outside look like a masterpiece of art. The tall stone pillars in the hall are proud, and the glazed glass reflects the colorful light in the candlelight, making people's senses both illusory and real.
The candlelight in the hall was flickering, and an old man with a white beard was wearing a pure white robe, which was not overly decorated, and his clothes were unusually simple, and even the middle-aged man who stood at the door before was better than the old man. I saw the old man kneeling in front of a huge statue, looking down at the Bible in his hand silently.
Mo Yu actually felt a very powerful and refined aura of light outside the church, and he didn't expect the aura to emanate from this old man, this old man seemed to be more powerful than Matthew of the Yasar Chamber of Commerce, so that Mo Yu couldn't judge his realm.
Seeing that Mo Yu and the others had entered the Taoist church, the old man put down the Bible in his hand, stood up and showed a kind smile: "Child, I'm sorry for making you embarrassed. ”
Unexpectedly, the old man would take the initiative to apologize, which reduced the anger in Mo Yu's heart a lot, and Mo Yu has always respected the elderly, especially the kind elders, so Mo Yu also smiled: "You can't blame Your Excellency for these things, after all, there will be some black sheep everywhere." ”
The old man could only smile bitterly, he was originally the patriarch of the Holy Court of the Holy Light Empire, and he was willing to leave the Holy Court to preach in such a small city because he was not used to seeing what some people did. also knew that there were many black sheep under his command, but he couldn't do anything.
Although the first tenet of the religion is to love and heal the world, it is difficult to enforce it. After all, the church has to spend a lot of money every month, and other people also need to live, if it is completely free, the church will not be able to support it, and it can only open its eyes and close its eyes. But I once confessed that if civilians are in difficulty, they can also be treated for free.
"Let you laugh, child, you put the person in your hand on the table first, let me treat the woman in your hand first, and then talk first. The old man smiled bitterly.
Mo Yu nodded, put Lydia's mother flat on the table, and let the old man treat her.
With a wave of the old man's right hand, a holy light fell on Lydia's mother, shrouded in light, and after a while, the light that shrouded her body gradually faded.
Lydia looked at her mother with that nervous gaze, full of hope and prayer for her mother's recovery.
However, when the light that enveloped Lydia's mother had completely subsided, the color on her face had slightly turned bloody, but the abscesses on her legs had not disappeared.
"How could it be ....... Lydia's eyes lost color, and she stared blankly at her mother, and suddenly the only glimmer of hope in her heart was extinguished by everything in front of her.
Seeing this, the old man frowned slightly, and walked over to Lydia's mother, only to see that her right hand was shrouded in light, moving back and forth over Lydia's mother.
After a few breaths, the old man couldn't help but shake it and said: "It's actually a bloodline curse, and the old man can't do anything, the child's festival is good, all this is the arrangement of fate." ”
When Lydia heard the old man's words, she threw herself on her mother in an instant, not caring for the pus and smell on her body, and wept loudly.
Lydia's mother didn't show a surprised expression, as if she already knew about her situation, and comforted Lydia softly.
Seeing this, Mo Yu asked, "Your Excellency, what is the matter, is there no way for a strong person like Your Excellency to cure her?"
"Oh, don't say it's me, I'm afraid even His Majesty the Pope can't cure her. The old man sighed.
"Your Excellency, can you make it clear what the bloodline spell is all about. Mo Yu said.
"Child, let me tell you everything I know, the bloodline curse is a curse caused by a god-level powerhouse who gives up everything including his soul, so as to curse the bloodline of the other party's descendants, this curse is extremely vicious, the future descendants of the cursed party will not live to be thirty years old, and the whole body ulcers and die, this curse has long disappeared, and I can't imagine that I can still see the appearance of this curse. ”
"Son, I'm afraid one of your parents is like you. The old man said.
Lydia's mother didn't speak, just nodded slightly.
"Isn't there a way to crack it?" Mo Yu said in a deep voice.
The old man shook his shoulders and did not speak, but stood there quietly looking at Lydia and the others.
Mo Yu suddenly remembered that he had been able to heal Nikon before, and he wondered if he could solve the problem of the bloodline curse on Lydia's mother now.
Just as Mo Yu was pondering, Lydia suddenly pounced on the old man's front body, knelt on the ground and begged: "Old man, please save my mother, I know you will definitely have a way." ”
Lydia thought that the old man would not save his mother, and that she had seen those mercenaries who were seriously injured, and that if they went to the church to seek treatment from the priest, they would be cured.
"Hurry up, child, spend more time with your mother for the rest of the time, grandpa really can't save your mother. The old man lifted Lydia up and comforted.
"Maybe I can heal your mother. Mo Yu said suddenly.
Lydia heard Mo Yu's words, like a drowning person, he would not let go of a straw, as long as there was hope, no matter how slim it was, she had to grasp it.
"Big brother, are you serious?" Lydia heard a hint of color appear in Mo Yu's distracted eyes again, and rushed forward to take Mo Yu's hand.
Mo Yu couldn't bear to hurt Lydia's weak heart again, and nodded slightly. In fact, Mo Yu was not sure whether his true qi could be a mother, so he could only take one step at a time.
