4. God's will
"Father, can you tell him how he felt when he killed someone?" Qiao Wei said to the priest.
"You can ask me directly, I'm very sane, maybe you think I'm crazy, many people think I'm crazy, but I know that I'm all right, I just saw God and followed God's guidance, I didn't do anything wrong, so there is no need to hide anything from you."
The priest also nodded at Qiao Wei, signaling Qiao Wei to ask questions directly.
Qiao Wei thought for a moment, and then made a "please" gesture at the burly man and said, "Then you can tell me, what did you see at that time?" weishenme, do you choose to kill with your hands? β
"I see God!" The burly man replied happily, "I was just playing my violin, and then I was enveloped by a light, and it was warm, peaceful, and in this light I saw God!" She told me that I should punish a sinner whose soul has been completely corrupted! β
"She? You say God is a woman? The difference between "he" and "she" in English is obvious, and Qiao Wei noticed the strangeness in the burly man's words, so he immediately asked.
The burly man nodded and said, "Yes, God is a woman, I was also surprised, but I am sure that it is God, there will be no mistake!" The burly man's eyes also showed infinite admiration as he spoke, and at the same time, he kept stroking the book in his hand.
"Is that goddess the woman you saved?" Qiao Wei asked.
"No, no, no, it's not her, it's God who directed me to save her, she's in danger!" The burly man corrected.
This answer obviously surprised Qiao Wei.
At first, I thought that the God in his mouth was the so-called woman he saved, but it turned out to be obviously not like that!
"Who is that God? Where is she? β
"In the air, she slowly descended from the sky, her body emitted a sun-like light, illuminating the night sky, she was so divine, so wise, so omniscient......"
The burly man is no longer talking to us in the usual way, but praising God in the form of poetry.
"Well, you see a goddess who came down from the sky, and she tells you to kill a sinner whose soul has been corrupted, so do you know the name of that sinner? Do you know what crime he committed exactly? Qiao Wei interrupted the burly man's hymn and continued to ask.
"I don't know his name, but God let me see his crimes!" The burly man's expression suddenly became serious as he spoke, and the smile disappeared from his face, and he replied while recalling: "God let me enter another dimension, put me in the scene of that sinner's crime, and I saw him brutally kill a woman, and cut off that woman's head, and use that head to **!" He is indeed corrupted and incurable, so I must kill him! β
Qiao Wei truthfully translated the burly man's words to me, and at the same time, Qiao Wei couldn't help frowning.
The burly man's description of the situation also reminded me of my previous experience on the pilgrimage island, where the gods have a special ability that can interfere with the human brain and make people see things that are not real. Judging from the situation described by the burly man, the culprit of this murder is more and more reminiscent of "God".
"Do you know that you gave birth to a pair of wings yourself? There were a lot of people watching at the time, and they said that you had a pair of glowing wings growing from your back. β
"I know that God says that I am a chosen people, and that I can redeem myself by dischasing sinners in God's place, even though I am deeply sinned. I feel that I am now renewed, my sins have been cleansed, I am God's people, I am God's angel! β
"You say you're guilty?" Qiao Wei asked.
"Yes! I've been in prison, I've been in a juvenile gang, and I've killed people when I'm fourteen. Later, a priest rescued me and taught me about music, and to purify my soul through music. Now that I'm yujian through music, I don't think it's a coincidence, it's all God's will! Amen! β
The burly man drew a cross on his chest, then bowed his head and kissed the book in his handβnow I was sure that it was a Bible.
"And now? Can you still see God now? β
"Now?"
"That's right! Right now! Qiao Wei confirmed.
The burly man drew a cross on his chest again and said, "God is watching us all the time, and although I can't see her now, I believe that she will guide me." β
"Well, thank you for your cooperation." Qiao Wei thanked the burly man, then turned to the priest and said, "Let's go out, I have some questions for you." β
The priest nodded immediately and walked out of the room with us.
After getting outside, Qiao Wei immediately asked, "Has he always been in this state?" I mean the way he speaks, it always feels a little bit abnormal, like he is reciting poetry. β
"Yes, he's been talking like that since he was sent in yesterday." Father Priest said.
"Do you believe what he says? Is it God who directs him to discipline sinners? β
"Nope." The priest shook his head decisively and said: "God is merciful, he will not incite anyone to take the life of others, only the devil will deceive people." β
"So you don't believe him?"
"No, I believe it! I believe that something did happen to him, and he did see something special, but it was not God, it was the devil! His mind is bewitched by the devil. β
"I think so too. Thank you for your help. Qiao Wei smiled and said to the priest.
The white-haired old priest also smiled at Qiao Wei in response: "It's nothing, this is also my duty." β
Just as we were thanking the priest and saying goodbye and preparing to leave, the policeman who had been guarding the door suddenly said, "Do you think he's crazy?" β
Qiao Wei and I were stunned for a moment by the policeman's sudden question, this sentence is very simple, I understand it completely, but I don't understand that a policeman Weishenme would suddenly ask us such a question, he should ask the doctor, right?
"You should ask your doctor this question." Qiao Wei's answer was in sync with what I thought.
The policeman who asked the question pouted and shook his head: "I don't care what the doctor says, I just want to tell you two priests, if there is really a God on Shijie, I think what the kid in it sees is God, and we all want to kill that guy!" Believe me, it's definitely better for that person to die than to live on this shijie! β
"You're saying the guy who was killed was really a bad guy?"
"Bob? Quinn, you can go and find out the background of this person, and then you'll understand what I mean. β
