Chapter 144: The Priest's Argument to Exorcise Evil Spirits

Li Mi and Luo Ruwang have not known each other for a long time, but they have heard him pray many times, and his prayer is full of joy and calm, like soft music, with the low and thick voice of this old priest, it really makes people calm down.

However, at this time, Li Mi stood outside the room, and what he could hear was a spell like a blade, rapid and powerful, categorical, loud, with full anger and spit!

Every time Luo Ruwang recited a sentence, Migala followed suit, and the voices of the two sang and harmonized with each other, pressing down like a torrent of steel, even listening to it outside, it was also a little breathless!

Li Misheng was afraid that something would happen, and he wanted to break in to check, but he was afraid that a sudden disturbance would bring them harm, after all, martial arts masters practiced internal strength, and people would go crazy if they interrupted, it was all the same reason, right?

After all, Michael was a holy judge, and since he was fine, it was okay for Luo Ruwang to think about it, so Li Mi stood quietly outside, and it was not until they stopped that Li Mi knocked on the door.

As soon as there was a knock on the door, the room fell silent, and Li Mi could fully imagine the panic of the two people in the room as if they were facing a great enemy, so he hurriedly spoke out at this time.

"Priest, it's me, Li Mi."

Luo Ruwang was obviously relieved, and Li Mi even seemed to hear him breathe a long breath.

When Luo Ruwang opened the door, Li Mi was a little stunned.

A shrine was temporarily erected in the room, a broken candle was lit, Michael was holding a knight's sword inlaid with red sapphires and wearing a red cross robe, while Luo Ruwang was wearing a cardinal red robe, a white melon skin hat, and a purple ribbon wrapped around his hand, on which there were faint traces of blood!

And he held a sterling silver cross in his left hand, and a crystal bottle in his right hand, his head was covered with sweat, and his body was also soaked with sweat, as if he had just been fished out of the water!

What surprised Li Mi even more was that there was a black-skinned gold-rimmed scripture book in front of the shrine, and if the Bible used by the priest on a daily basis was full of white holy light, as if it contained God's endless love, then this book was like the sword of the battle angels, all sealed inside, hard and cold!

"The priest is exorcising evil spirits?"

Although Li Mi did not know much about the Jesuits, he had seen movies in later generations and knew that Western sects, like Chinese religions, also had some mysterious rituals to exorcise evil spirits and exorcise ghosts.

However, Luo Ruwang shook his head and said, "This is not to exorcise evil spirits, but to pray......"

Seeing Luo Ruwang's denial, Li Mi didn't understand it a little, Luo Ruwang knew that Li Mi could know the secrets of the sect that others couldn't know, or that Li Mi knew their sect better than those of his contemporaries.

So when Li Mi asked, he didn't have much surprise, seeing Li Mi's expression, Luo Ruwang also explained.

"We pray to God to expel evil spirits, such divine power comes from the Lord, we are only servants of the Lord, casting out evil demons, it is the hand of God that comes directly, so what you say is not correct, or it is not accurate......"

Li Mi inevitably smiled bitterly in his heart, and after talking for a long time, he was still exorcising evil spirits, but he was just picking out words with Li Mi.

"Why did the priest exorcise evil spirits? Is there a devil at work? Although Li Mi had already thought of something, he just couldn't say it himself, so he asked knowingly.

Luo Ruwang did not hide Li Mi's meaning, beckoned to Li Mi, let Li Mi enter the room, closed the door, and then said to Li Mi.

"Baalzebub has brought sickness and wickedness to the earth, and has polluted God's paradise, and will be spit on and banished, and we will serve my Lord and will not teach the world to be tormented by Baalzebub!"

This Baalzebub is also the ghost king Beelzebub in the Western religion, it is said that he was also a seraphic angel before, and later committed the sin of gluttony in the seven deadly sins, and after he fell, he became a fly, constantly gluttonous, and became bigger and bigger, ruling the ghosts in hell, second only to Lucifer, that is, the king of ghosts.

Of course, these are all things that have been deduced by later generations, and it is unknown whether there are any pure classical sects.

Baalzebub means Lord of the Flies, and is regarded as the root of evil that brings disease to the world, so the sect calls some sinful and evil things, and also uses the name Baalzebub.

Li Mi didn't have a deep understanding of this, but he had read some novels, and at this time he finally understood why Emmanuel was so happy earlier but kept cursing, thinking that his conclusion was similar to that of Luo Ruwang.

"The priest also thinks that it is the short-lived species that bite the remnants of these widows?"

Luo Ruwang heard Li Mi mention the three words of short-lived species, and his face couldn't help but change greatly, and sweat trickled down, as if Li Mi had told a big secret!

At first, Emmanuel talked about the short-lived species, but Li Mi didn't pay much attention to it, and he only realized it when he saw Luo Ruwang and Michael exorcising evil spirits.

In novels or films, Western vampires often refer to themselves as noble immortals because they can live for thousands of years by sucking blood, while the righteous in turn curse them as filthy short-lived species.

Luo Ruwang said with some difficulty: "I don't know, after all, this creature only exists in legends, but you have also seen that twenty or thirty people have become like this overnight, can there be any other explanation besides this?" ”

Li Mi did not answer Luo Ruwang, but asked rhetorically: "Isn't it strictly forbidden for clergy to exorcise demons without permission?" ”

Luo Ruwang was no longer surprised, Li Mi kept talking about the secrets of the Holy See, but he felt cordial, as if he had met a member of the church, after all, in this era, there were very few people who knew their sect.

Even those civil officials and doctors in the Ming Dynasty were constantly exposed to it, but they only knew one thing but did not know the other, or they read some Western classics, which was far-fetched, and they wanted to show off, and often made some jokes.

But Li Mi always came to him, as if these things had penetrated deep into his bone marrow.

"Strictly speaking, the Holy See does not have the power to expel us, we only pray, pray to God, let God send down the divine power, and the divine power of all the powerful people comes from God, not from individuals, and this prayer ceremony can be held with the permission of the bishop."

Li Mi looked at Luo Ruwang and did not speak, because if there was a bishop in the Great China Territory, it should be Matteo Ricci, not Luo Ruwang.

Luo Ruwang obviously also saw Li Mi's thoughts, and said to Li Mi at this time: "You have a saying called urgency, which means that in the event of an emergency, you must know how to adapt according to the situation, and you can't stick to the dogma, but is it right?" ”

Li Mi nodded, and also expressed understanding: "There is such a saying, I also understand the priest's approach, I don't know what progress the priest can make?" ”

Seeing that Li Mi expressed his understanding and agreement, Luo Ruwang also breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Michael, but stopped talking.

When Michael saw this, he took over and said, "I have a prayer service with the priest just to keep evil away from this place, because we don't know the name of the devil, and we can't say the name of the devil, so how can we expel it?" ”

Li Mi saw that they were depressed and very gloomy, and at this time he also shook his head and said: "Priest, to put it mildly, people in the world are more evil than these so-called short-lived species, the root of human nature, whether it is good or evil, I can't tell, and I can't argue, but I know that once people become evil, they are much smarter than they imagined......

Luo Ruwang heard this opinion, and also fell into contemplation, and after a long time, he asked Li Mi: "Hearing you say this, it seems that Your Excellency does not believe that these evils are the work of short-lived species?" ”

Li Mi thought for a while, and asked Luo Ruwang: "If I say that these things are a species that has survived for thousands of years, but they are not short-lived, and they came from people in the Eastern Han Dynasty of China, will the priest believe it?" ”

"Someone from the Eastern Han Dynasty? Immortality for a thousand years? Luo Ruwang was also very proficient in Chinese culture, so he naturally knew what the Han Dynasty was, but he still shook his head.

Li Mi also smiled: "Since you don't believe it, why do you have to believe in short-lived seeds?" ”

Luo Ruwang was really asked, but Li Mi also knew that he was already talking too much, because the short-lived species was a product derived from the Western sect, and questioning the existence of the short-lived species was questioning the existence of the sacred, which already involved the root of their beliefs, and it was something that smart people should not discuss it.

"I'm sorry, I lost my words."

Hearing Li Mi's apology, Luo Ruwang didn't care anymore, and said to Li Mi: "It's okay, many people are full of doubts before they feel God's favor and see miracles, but without exception, they will one day feel the Lord's love, it's just a matter of time." ”

Xu was talking about these issues, and the atmosphere was inevitably a little depressed, so Luo Ruwang asked Li Mi: "Since His Excellency Li Mi thinks that it is not the short-lived species that is doing the trick, is there any other possibility?" ”

Li Mi: "This is exactly the purpose of coming here. ”

"I don't believe in short-lived species and the like, although it looks a little shocking, but I think it's still a man-made murder in the end, and this time I came here, I just want to ask the priest to help me examine the body."

These priests who have traveled across the ocean and traveled thousands of miles to preach usually have to learn a maximum amount of knowledge, of which medical knowledge is essential.

In the end, he is a "foreign monk", since he is a clergyman, he is probably inseparable from things like funerals and farewells.

Li Mi didn't have much hope, but the debate between himself and Luo Ruwang made Luo Ruwang change his mind.

"Okay, I'll go with you and have a look."

Li Mi saw that Luo Ruwang agreed so simply, and his heart was also happy, and when Luo Ruwang and Michael were about to leave the room, Li Mi asked Luo Ruwang again.

"The priest should have passed the doctor's exam, can you bring the medical kit with you?" Maybe you can use ......."

Modern medicine actually didn't start early, but after all, it originated from the West, and Li Mi also wanted to see how far Western medicine had developed, so he casually mentioned it.

Luo Ruwang didn't expect Li Mi to even know this, and after thinking about it, he finally turned back, took out a small suitcase, and asked Michael to bring it.

Seeing this, Li Mi finally had some confidence.
