Chapter 376: Panicked Sarah
Wang Shan, this guy, didn't expect to get a nun back.
After Zhao Hongyu came to the top floor, he told Sara about it.
After hearing Zhao Hongyu say this, Sara's face did not fluctuate.
Because Sarah, who has lived in France for a long time, said that those people in the church are hypocrites.
Therefore, it is not surprising that nuns are sold into slavery.
In short, there is nothing that can be done by those people in the church.
There is only what you can't think of, and there is nothing they can't do.
"General Wang Shan won't be deceived, maybe that slave trader just found a random woman and dressed her in a set of nun clothes."
Sara said to Zhao Hongyu with a smile.
Well, that's possible.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu groaned.
However, when he thought of the cold look on Jenny's face, the strange gaze, and the aura emanating from her, he felt that Sarah's guess was not very reliable.
Because Jenny's aura is not something that ordinary people can have.
Judging by this, it is impossible for Wang Shan to be deceived.
Besides, Wang Shan is not stupid, he also has his own judgment.
You must know that the genetic people under his command are Wang Shan, Zhang Tie and Song Hu are the smartest.
Now the helpers I rely on the most are the three of them.
At the same time, he didn't see any intellectual defects in Wang Shan, so it was impossible for Wang Shan to be deceived by the slave trader.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongyu said to Sara: "I don't think Wang Shan is deceived or deceived, and according to him, this nun originally belonged to the Inquisition of the Church, and she is also a very powerful assassin. ”
When Zhao Hongyu said the information that Wang Shan relayed to him, Sarah, who was still smiling, suddenly froze his expression.
Then, a look of fear flooded over her face.
"What...... Miscellaneous...... What the. Sect...... Inquisition! ”
Sarah's voice suddenly sharpened.
The women around her all turned their heads to look at her.
Sara knew that her reaction was a little too aggressive, so she took a few deep breaths to calm her heartbeat.
Then, she lowered her voice and looked at Zhao Hongyu with a very serious expression: "Is what you said true?" Honey, this is no joke. ”
Zhao Hongyu didn't know what to say, but Sara knew the Inquisition very well.
This organization affiliated with the church is actually an organization dedicated to eradicating dissidents and eliminating people with different ideas for the church.
Especially when there is an impact on the dominance of the church. This organization will take action.
At the same time, the Inquisition was a place of fear for the people.
Its name is a household name in Europe.
How many people did not come out alive after being seized by the Inquisition.
How many people were subjected to inhuman abuse and torture in the Inquisition.
What makes the Inquisition so frightening, in addition to its torturous methods, is their right to decide whether a person is a heretic or not.
Yes, heresy.
on the European continent. Anyone who does not obey the administration of the church, or who does not believe in 'God,' is considered a heretic.
As long as they are labeled as heretical, usually the end of that person is very tragic.
A cousin of Sarah. He was once arrested by the Inquisition on suspicion of heresy and sent to the branch of the local Inquisition, where he was humiliated, tortured and inhumanely abused.
In the end, his family paid a large amount of objective bribes. My cousin was free.
However, her cousin had been tortured to the point of not being human, and died half a year after being rescued.
Death. The cousin's suspected heretical charges have not been cleared.
And what happened to his cousin, the reason for which Sara knows very clearly.
It's just a high-level church who takes a fancy to his cousin and wants to have a little intimate relationship with her but is rejected by his cousin, so he holds a grudge against convenience.
So, through the Inquisition, the people, although organized a crime to arrest the cousin, and then torture her.
As for her cousin's matter, her parents found a lot of nobles, but the other party didn't dare to help.
It can be seen how terrifying the name of the Inquisition is.
It's the 17th century, which is even more frightening in the Middle Ages.
In today's European countryside, the people of the Inquisition will from time to time slander some poor women as witches and burn them to death.
The list goes on and on.
It is precisely by virtue of this means that the Inquisition has become synonymous with terror in the minds of the people.
Zhao Hongyu looked at Sarah, who was already frightened and her face was white, and raised his hand in distress and gently stroked her cheek, comforting her not to be so afraid.
"Yes, the Inquisition, a very powerful assassin. What does it matter? No matter how good they are, I won't be afraid of them, will I? ”
"You don't understand, you don't understand their horrors." , Sara said to Zhao Hongyu quietly and anxiously.
Zhao Hongyu pursed his lips, looking very disapproving.
"They're great, but what about me on the American continent? You must know that out of the land of Europe, the church is nothing. ”
Yes, the church today is only rampant on the European continent, far less powerful than later generations.
Of course, in the colonies of the Spaniards and the Dutch in Central America, there was a power of the church.
However, because of the appearance of Zhao Hongyu, the churches in these colonies are about to come to an end.
"The church will open churches in the Americas, and their people will go to the Song Empire in the Americas. There are Europeans working in your country, so they can easily land in the Americas. ”
Sara stumbled to Zhao Hongyu.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu laughed.
"This is not going to happen, and we have always been wary of the church, and if I am responsible, my men have already started a series of attacks against the church."
Although Zhao Hongyu said so, Sarah's worries did not decrease.
"Okay, it's just a nun of the church, you don't have to worry about it. If you knew what she was going to do, she would become a slave. I don't think you think you care too much about it. ”
After thinking about it, Zhao Hongyu felt that Sara might think that this nun was not caught by slave traders and sold here.
As everyone knows, the most fundamental reason why this nun became a slave was because of the betrayal of the church's higher-ups.
If Sara had known this fact, she probably wouldn't have been so scared and worried.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongyu told Sara the reason behind this.
And Sara listened to Zhao Hongyu tell the dirty reason for this, and her eyes widened more and more, looking very incredible.
Zhao Hongyu could see it. Sara was really shocked by the reason behind this nun who was sold into slavery.
"It's hard to imagine that the church is now so depraved."
After listening to Zhao Hongyu's story, Sara let out a long breath of turbid air and said faintly.
Yes, Sara had no idea that the Church was now selling out even its own people in the Inquisition.
If it were the nuns of the ordinary convent, Sara would not have been so surprised.
After all, the nuns in ordinary convents. All were the mistresses of some great nobles.
So, the women there are basically not any good goods.
But the Inquisition was completely different, and the people here were dedicated to the Church and dealing with the heretics.
Arguably. It is the thug of absolute loyalty of the Church.
But no one could have imagined that the church could betray this loyal subordinate.
I really can't imagine it.
Sara felt that the world she knew was about to collapse
Zhao Hongyu looked at Sarah's expression and held her hand.
"There's nothing strange about that. Those people in the church weren't good people in the first place, so it's not surprising that they would do such a thing. And didn't I say earlier that the higher echelons of the church wanted to insult this nun. But she refused. But the ugliness of this high-level must have fallen in the eyes of this nun, so he has to deal with this nun for the sake of his own reputation. ”
Although Zhao Hongyu heard Wang Shan say this reason, but after her own judgment, it is estimated that it is not far from ten.
Otherwise, why would the top of the church have to deal with this nun?
No, this nun's threat to the church's top brass is far more than that.
Otherwise, he would not have colluded with the Arab slave traders to bring this nun to Egypt.
This is certainly not easy.
It's just that Wang Shan and the Arab slave trader don't know.
But no matter what, now that the nun is in Zhao Hongyu's hands, he has time to get the information he wants from her mouth.
He can afford his time anyway, can't he?
"You don't have to worry too much, as I said, our base is in the Americas, and the power of the Church is not very strong in the Americas. And we're limiting the power of the church right now, so they don't have much to do in the Americas. ”
As for what happened in the Americas, Zhao Hongyu is still not very clear.
If he knew that Zhang Tie had dealt with the priests in Manhattan, he would have been more confident now.
However, the means of communication in this era were not as powerful as those of later generations.
Therefore, it is normal that Zhao Hongyu does not have much news from Manhattan in the Americas now.
After listening to Zhao Hongyu's words, Sarah's nervousness slowly eased.
Yes, Zhao Hongyu is right.
At least in Sarah's eyes, it's right.
No matter how powerful the church is, it's still in Europe.
...... in the Americas I guess I can only 'hehe'. (To be continued.) )
