Chapter 419: Keeping Up with the Times and Adding a Priest



There were soldiers with tears on their faces: "Priest, priest, .cc [marshmallow]"

Garcia didn't speak, just shook his head.

This soldier named Fugui was hit by an axe in his heart, not only broke a few ribs, but also chopped his lungs and liver, and blood kept bubbling out.

And his face turned pale at a rate visible to the naked eye.

The soldier cried out angrily: "Priest, surnamed Jia, aren't you a miracle doctor, why can't you cure it?" ”

Fugui groaned and muttered something quietly, and with every word, pink foam came out of his mouth and nose.

"Brother Fugui, what did you say, what did you say?" Several soldiers with whom he had a good relationship shouted at the same time, and some put their ears to his mouth.

Fugui's voice was like a mosquito: "I...... I...... I won't do it, don't blame Mr. Jia......"

Garcia pushed everyone away: "Let Jean, the wounded are running out of time." ”

He took out a book of "Bibles" with a sheepskin cover from his bosom and put it on the chest of the wounded, and said solemnly: "Brother Fugui, you are about to throw yourself into the arms of the Lord, and everything is arranged by the Lord

。 Death is not the end, but a new beginning. Don't resist, and don't be afraid. Listen to me, you should remember your life, remember the wrongs you have done, ask for forgiveness from the Father in Heaven, ask Him to bring your soul into Heaven. ”

"Forgiveness, what did the rich brother do, the surname is added, you bastard!" Someone screamed in grief, tears flowed from his eyes, and as he spoke, he reached out and pushed Garcia. (.marshmallow)

Garcia struggled with all his might: "Brother Fugui, listen to me, I say a word, you read a word...... Let go of my ......"

"Fuck off, fuck off, we don't need you!"

Garcia was surrounded by the sonorous soldiers in the phalanx, and he pushed him again, and his steps staggered. Seeing that he was about to be driven away from the dying, he felt a rush in his heart.

As a member of the Society of Jesus, he has been thinking about how to let the light of God shine on the heads of the people of the Far East. Therefore, he gladly left the church in Beijing and ran to the Ningxiang army to spread the teachings, and for this reason, he even did not hesitate to serve as Sun Yuanjun's surgeon to train qualified medical personnel for him.

However, the experience of this year has made him very disappointed.

Sun Yuan imposed many restrictions on Garcia, and he was never allowed to preach in the army.

Therefore, in the more than a year he has been in the Bohai Institute, he has not developed a few disciples.

The most irritating thing is that these Orientals are real pragmatists. Even if they profess to believe in Buddhism or Taoism, they also go to Taoist temples and Buddhist temples to burn incense and bow down. But after he kowtowed, he wanted to get paid. For example, begging their gods to bless themselves with promotion and wealth, bless their families with happiness and safety, bless their wives with a big fat boy, and if it is twin sons, then it is the best. If his wish is granted, he will give the temple a large sum of money to restore the golden body of their god...... This...... Isn't it a deal?

And, once their prayers are not fulfilled, these guys will not hesitate to change gods, change temples, and repeat the routine. ()

It was precisely because Garcia's work was not carried out smoothly that he strongly asked to join the army when the Ningxiang Army went on the expedition this time.

In his view, earthly life can easily blind the human heart. After all, life is good, life is good. Any kind of creature will be nostalgic for this beautiful life.

It is only when we are on the verge of life and death, when we are faced with that eternal death, that one remembers the eternal philosophical proposition: who am I, where I come from, and where am I going

This is the only time when a person is closest to the Father.

As long as I want to do a blessing, as long as the deceased throws himself into the arms of the Heavenly Father when he is dying, he will invisibly infect the living, and his situation in the Ningxiang Army will not be opened?

However, the attitude of these soldiers is so arrogant, they are just an old man, how can they squeeze in.

Garcia's heart was in a hurry, he braved the rain of bullets and bullets to join the army, not just as a military doctor.

At this time, he suddenly remembered what Sun Yuan had said to him in the church more than a year ago.

But there was a movement in my heart, yes, the Far Easterners are standard pragmatists. For the religion of ghosts and gods, it has always been that it is okay to believe in it, and it is okay not to believe in it. As soon as Jesus came to the Far East, because it was a monotheistic system, it was faced with the problem of adaptation to the soil and water.

If we want to carry forward our religion, we must allow the coexistence of multiple gods, and we must follow the local customs. Moreover, religious ceremonies had to be reformed in accordance with their customs.

The thought shook his heart: God, how could I have such a mind? Isn't this heresy?

But I can't do anything else without that.

No matter what, it's still good for Sun Yuan, everything has to be gradual. Rituals and things are just appearances, but God has one. All roads lead to Rome, and whatever the reason is taken, the important goal is correct, and it is right.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Brother Fugui is going to die, you get out of the way, let me read a sutra to him, surpass his soul, so that he can cast into a good family in the next life, and no longer have to suffer like this in this life." "Transcending the soul and being reincarnated is the theory of Buddhism, as soon as these words were shouted, Garcia immediately blushed and felt a deep sense of guilt.

Hearing his shout, the soldiers who were walking forward in front of them understood what he was talking about, and couldn't help but open a gap. A soldier pulled three sticks of grass from the ground and inserted them on the cart like incense.

"Captain Jiadao, come here, come here."

Garcia finally squeezed to the front and put the Bible in the heart of the dying man called Fugui

Fugui had obviously heard what Garcia was saying just now, and a hint of blush appeared on his pale face, which was already shining back.

Garcia: "Brother Fugui, what are you talking about?" ”

A soldier put his ear to Fugui's mouth and repeated the words of his comrade-in-arms loudly: "Brother Fugui is asking, will you really have a good birth in the next life?" ”

"Yes, I'm sure, you just have to do what I say." Garcia ignored the guilt in his heart, and said as he walked: "Now, my rich brother, you immediately remember what you have done wrong in this life, and silently recite it in your heart, asking for forgiveness from your Heavenly Father. In this way, even if you have washed away all the faults in your body, you will be reincarnated in a dignified manner, and then you will wait to enjoy the blessings. ”

"Brother Fugui asked again, who will he be reincarnated in the next life?"

Garcia: "You will be reincarnated into a wealthy family with two fields and thousands of acres, ten cows, a hundred sheep, more than thirty tenants, a mill, and three women. ”

"Brother Fugui said, great, great, thank you." The retelling warrior was already crying.

The ranks were still moving in order, the footsteps were thundering, and the officers' commands were everywhere: "One-two-one-two, one-two-three-four!" ”

"One-two-one-two, one-two-three-four."

Time was running out, and Garcia whispered: "Life and death, the parting of soul and body, the road you have traveled in your life, good and evil, which road do you stand on?" Our merciful Father in heaven, forgive the sins of the rich and noble brothers all their lives. Please listen to his last earthly conversation and prayer. Bring him to heaven after death. Praise the Lord and thank the Lord, Amen! ”

After reading it, Garcia hurriedly shouted: "Brother Fugui, read Amen quickly!" ”

Fugui smiled, his lips moved and said something, then tilted his head and stopped breathing.

The soldier who repeated Fugui's words was full of tears: "Brother Fugui said that he changed his mind, and in the next life, he will still be a soldier of the Ningxiang Army, and these few years are the happiest days in his life, and he will not go anywhere!" ”

The team continued to move forward slowly and inexorably.
