Europe is in full swing, but Zhao Zhi, who is drifting away, has crossed the ocean and reached the Suez Canal, and more than 2 months and 70 days of fear made Rowling cry in Zhao Zhi's arms without any scruples. Ye Kong, who is Rowling's personal bodyguard, also treats Zhao Zhi coldly, but it's okay to print counterfeit banknotes, but Zhao Zhi actually helped the German army land in the UK, and even took people to storm Buckingham Palace.

According to Zhao Zhi's plan, the fleet was to stay in Suez for a few days to replenish water and food, and Zhao Zhi also wanted to take advantage of this time to have a good talk with the Jews who came with the ship. Rowling was the first fleet to arrive in Suez, and the Jews who were sent here had to get her consent before they could get on the ship again, and those slightly more powerful Jewish families and high priests had been left behind by Rowling for various reasons, and if Zhao Zhi wanted the Jews to serve him, he had to convince these guys who had the right to speak among the Jews first.

"There happens to be a family meeting today, I have contacted their patriarch, and there may be a high priest present" Early in the morning, Rowling pulled Zhao Zhi out of bed, and after a hasty breakfast, Rowling took Zhao Zhi to the temporary settlement she had arranged for the Jews. Zhao Zhi had worked as a personal bodyguard for a wealthy Jewish businessman in Israel for a period of time in his previous life, because of the Jewish boss in his previous life, Zhao Zhi knew that eight days after the boy was born, a solemn religious ceremony would be held, and relatives and friends would be invited to watch the ceremony. If there is no change in customs, this seems to be a sign of a change in their attitude towards themselves.

The Jews were punctual, and by the time Rowling arrived with Zhao Zhi, the guests had already gathered, and the ceremony would begin after the high priest's prayer. After informing the guests that they were free to do so, everyone's eyes fell on a white-haired old man, wearing a white melon-skin hat on his head, wearing a white robe, and pressing one hand on a thick book, with a solemn face. The hall was silent, and the guests were all kneeling on the thick carpet with a reverent face. Rowling and a handful of other non-believers also held their breath and silenced, lest they disturb the solemn ceremony.

The old man closed his eyes slightly, and spat out words that were very different from Chinese, and the short tone of his voice was exactly what Zhao Zhi had heard in his previous life, although he did not know Hebrew, but he was very familiar with these prayers. The old man recited a sentence, and the Jews followed suit, and for a moment the hall reverberated with the Hebrew language, and the sound of pious prayer seemed to reverberate with a sense of sacredness. "What the hell are they talking about?" Ye Kong, who looked depressed, couldn't help but whisper, he had never been in contact with Jews since he was a child in Germany, and his eyes were naturally black at this kind of prayer for them.

Zhao Zhi, who had nothing to do, whispered to him: "Israeli, you have to listen! The LORD is our God and the only Lord: love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength: and you shall take to heart the words which I command you today, and teach your children diligently, whether you sit at home, or walk on the road, when you lie down, and when you get up, and you shall put it on your hand as a sign, and on your forehead as a scripture, and it shall be written on the doorposts of your house, and on the gates of your city."

"The One Lord?" Ye Kong secretly said in his heart, the Jews are crazy enough, no wonder Hitler had to expel the Jews.

After the prayer was over, everyone returned to their seats, and Rowling's Jewish bodyguards also returned to Rowling's two sides, and Ye Kong asked him curiously what he was praying for. The Jewish bodyguard smiled and said, "Praise God's prayer." He did not want to go into details, so he introduced the two of them to the etiquette for a while: "According to the scriptures, our ancestor Abram was circumcised at the age of ninety-nine, at the behest of God. God also told the ancestors that men from generation to generation would be circumcised on the eighth day of their birth. The sign that a Jew has come to practice Judaism begins with the ritual of circumcision. From this day on, the newborn baby enters into a covenant with God and becomes a servant of God. ”

"So, circumcision is the equivalent of Christian baptism?" Ye Kong, who was curious about knowledge, suddenly said: "Then how exactly do you salute?" "Just look at it." Zhao Zhi glanced at him and said with a smile: "If you feel good, I will also help you cut it when you go back." Listening to Zhao Zhi's words to joke about Ye Kong, the Jewish bodyguard covered his mouth and snickered, Ye Kong knew that Zhao Zhi was playing tricks again, so he stopped talking when he smiled, and turned his head to look at the ceremony that continued. After the prayer, an ornate soft chair was carried into the church. Later, a table was brought up, and on it was covered with clean cotton cloth, and on top of it was a basin of silver boxes. The old man in the white robe, the rabbi of the Jews, walked up to the table and began to wash his hands carefully.

A baby boy who is about to be circumcised is wrapped in clean swaddling clothes. The father of the child, dressed in a pure white prayer towel with black stripes at the bottom, holds his son in one hand and a book in the other, and his face is pious, without the cunning of the Jews. After the rabbi washes his hands. With his left hand, he pressed the book in his father's hand and spoke in Hebrew, and when he had finished, the child's father kissed the back of his hand and humbly replied in Hebrew.

Ye Kong looked at Zhao Zhi again, he thought that this guy could understand, who knew that Zhao Zhi knew that in addition to a few daily words, he knew that the classic prayer just now, he couldn't understand a word about the child's father's muttering at the moment. Fortunately, Rowling's bodyguard acted as an interpreter at this time: "You Jews, men of all generations, born in the family, were bought from outsiders with silver from outside your descendants. On the eighth day of birth. and all are circumcised. The uncircumcised man must be cut off from among his people, because he has broken my covenant. These are the words of the rabbi.

"Praise be to you, our God. Thou hast sanctified us with thy oracles, and thou hast commanded our children into the covenant of my father Abraham, and thou hast commanded our children to enter into the covenant of our fathers, and to be a good Jew who keeps his promises." The father of the child then rested the baby on a chair, an old man came up to pick up the baby and sat down, while another stood on the edge of the chair and waited for the baby to be circumcised.

The Jewish bodyguard said that the two old men, standing was the child's grandfather, and sitting was the child's grandfather, who was also the patriarch of their Jewish family. At this moment, the rabbi walked up to the baby wearing a prayer towel, and the swaddling clothes were opened, revealing the young body in front of everyone. The next scene that happened stunned Ye Kong saw that Narabi opened the silver box, first used a white ointment to apply it to the child's ***, and then used a silver-white fine iron tool with one hand to pick up the front end of the baby's foreskin, and with a shiny sharp knife in the other, he cut off the front end of the foreskin neatly. He then sprinkled some powder on the child's wound and wrapped it in gauze.

This is almost the fastest circumcision Zhao Zhi has ever seen, which shows that the old gentleman has practice makes perfect. It turned out that this was the so-called circumcision, Ye Kong opened his eyes, and thought that all the Jewish men present were estimated to have been cut by him***, he couldn't help but shudder, and he was very glad that he was not of Jewish descent.

After the operation, the rabbis, the priest of Judaism, began to recite the sutra with a glass of wine in hand. After a while, he handed the glass to the child's mother. The child's mother, after reciting a few verses, took a small sip of wine. At this time, the surrounding relatives and friends sang songs and stepped forward to extend their warmest congratulations to Bai Yaming's family. At this time, the circumcision was completed, the servants served sumptuous food and wine, and the feast finally began.

During the dinner, as the father of the newborn, he naturally became the protagonist, he thanked everyone for their presence and announced the baby's name.

Although the Jews will not have singers singing and dancing, they will sing together and entertain themselves. Although she couldn't understand what they were saying or singing, Rowling enjoyed the intimacy. Just as she squinted and beat to the music, the Jewish bodyguard next to her whispered, "The rabbi and the patriarch of the family ask you and your husband to meet in the study."

Rowling, who had a quiet face, nodded lightly, said hello to Zhao Zhi who was sitting next to her, and then got up and followed the Jewish bodyguard to the study in the back house. The back house was very quiet, like two worlds from the front, the patriarch of the house, Levi, and the rabbi who had just prayed were sitting on chairs at the moment, sipping tea, completely leisurely. After the two sides saluted, the two beckoned Rowling and Zhao Zhi to sit down, and let the family members who brought them over and the Jewish bodyguard go out.

There were only four of them left in the study, and the patriarch Levi bowed to Zhao Zhi with a smile, "Listen to Miss Rowling, thanks to Mr. Zhao's help, our clan has been spared huge losses, and on behalf of the whole clan, thank you Mr. Zhao." ”

"It's a trivial matter, it's not enough to worry about" Zhao Zhi shook his head and smiled, the flicker in Levy's eyes was clearly seen by Zhao Zhi, and Zhao Zhi, who was familiar with the nature of the Jews, naturally would not be stupid enough to really think that Levi was thanking him. In Zhao Zhi's memory, there are many Jews who are profit-seeing, and there are many things that betray their own people for profit, but this does not erase the Jews' keen business sense, and the business acumen of the Jews is what Zhao Zhiqi lacks, not to mention that those Jewish youths are good reserve troops, so Zhao Zhi must persuade these Jews to cooperate with him.

Zhao Zhi has a large number of supplies and expert engineers in his hands, and all he lacks at present is a solid base and manpower that can serve him, and the more than a million homeless Jews naturally become the best candidates. Facing the cunning Jewish patriarch, Zhao Zhi smiled silently, and he planned to brake quietly, and after figuring out the plans of the Jews, he would throw an olive branch that the Jews could not refuse.
