Chapter 56: Church Pastors
Mixed a good meal, the thunderstorm grinded in my house until very late before leaving, I feel that he seems to be a little deliberately avoiding going back to his and Gu Muli's home, the parents actually saw it, they didn't care, and even said to stay, there is a big way that you don't want to go back and live here for as long as you like, this approach is a bit childish, the thunderstorm is more mature than before, he still chose to go back.
As he left, the troubles in his eyes fell into our eyes.
The next day, Thunderstorm found Zhu Hong, and just said a few sorry words, Zhu Hong interrupted him with a smile, "Don't be numb to me, this matter has nothing to do with you, and you haven't known this King Gu for a long time, how can you understand all her temperament?" Besides, brother, I don't dare to provoke this woman, this Gu Muli is so fierce! Ordinary people just abolished her hands. ”
Thunderstorm scratched his head, "Their ethnic customs are fierce, women are raised as warriors, she is the daughter of the patriarch, and then the patriarch died and she became the new patriarch, by the way, the old patriarch refers to her mother, not her father." ”
Zhu Hong said in surprise, "No wonder she looks a little different, is she really not from the Han nationality?" ”
Thunderstorm nodded, "yes, if it weren't for this, how would I have accepted a woman who had six husbands at the same time?" She is a member of the clan, people only know that the Mozi clan is the last mother clan in the world, in fact, the clan is even older, but not many people know it, because the number of clans is very small, they all live in seclusion in the mountains, rarely contact with foreign clans, and have always maintained the tradition of matrilineal clans, women rule, men are subordinate, and polyandry is practiced. This time in the last days, they took in some foreign survivors, just to get their shelter, they have to abide by their national customs, this will be to the town, it is considered to return to normal society, those men who are not her own must want to live a normal life, but she is angry about this. ”
Zhu Hong didn't hehe this time, he began to laugh, "No wonder they take several men for granted, this matter is ...... Oh mom, thunderstorm, my brother, are you a clan colt? ”
"Pull it down, Lao Zhu, you didn't hear her when you left yesterday, open your mouth and shut up, don't let me take care of the family affairs of their fortress, say I'm not qualified to take care of it, this mother-in-law!" Thunderstorm replied embarrassedly, this time it was really embarrassing.
"Then you really have no problem, who let you have this relationship, it is said that Gu Muli has been exposed to the feminist style of their clan since she was a child, and when you meet you, you can dissolve your husband's gang, and I only love you, which is really interesting enough for you." Zhu Hong finally understood why Thunderstorm would accept Gu Muli.
"But her kind of principled approach is not good for me, I can't watch her treat the man in the castle like that, right? But she was still dead and couldn't listen to persuasion. "Thunderstorms are still annoying.
Zhu Hong patted Thunderstorm's shoulder, "Brother, marriage is a science, even if you marry a Han woman, all kinds of small conflicts between husband and wife are not necessarily less than marrying a wife of an ethnic minority." ”
"Perhaps......"
I haven't been to church once since I came to town, not because I have forgotten about God, but because there are too many things to do.
Accompanying Mr. Kang to the front of the church, you have to go up a long flight of stairs first, and then the whole picture of the church will be displayed in front of you.
With its pointed roof and all-wooden structure, it looks like a church in a fairy tale! I stood in front of the church and admired, and although there was no service today, the doors of the church were still open.
Teacher Kang and I walked slowly into the church, and directly opposite the gate was a passage with a long red carpet, lined with wooden chairs, and a huge cross hanging on the wall at the end of the red carpet.
There were a dozen or so townspeople scattered around the church, praying silently, and no one was paying attention to the two of us.
I looked for the pastor everywhere, hoping that she could preach to Teacher Kang, this job is more professional, I don't think I can understand it, I don't dare to replace the pastor.
When I looked for it, I saw Adam.
He sat in the first row of his seat, whispering to a woman in a slip dress.
"Hey, Adam, you're here, and it's the perfect place for you." I happily walked over to Adam and said hello.
Adam looked up at me with the woman, the woman's face was unfamiliar, I am sure I had never seen her in the town, she was about twenty-eight or nineteen years old, her fair face was as beautiful as the moon, her shoulder-length black hair was neatly combed, and her whole body was full of dignity.
"Duoduo, let me introduce you, this is Pastor Hua Erhua, Pastor Hua, this is the Christian partner Duoduo I mentioned to you." Adam smiled softly and introduced us to each other.
Yes, Medlow once said that there is a female pastor in this church, but I didn't expect this pastor to be so young, and the church where I worship in Bencheng also has several highly respected female pastors, but they are all nearly half a hundred years old.
"Hello, Pastor Flower, you're so young." I blurted out.
Pastor Hua smiled, "Actually, I didn't graduate from the seminary for a few years, hello, Duoduo. ”
There was a familiar gentleness in the flower priest's smile, and I turned to look at Adam, yes, she was very similar to Adam's temperament.
It was a peace of mind that saw everything.
"Well, this is Teacher Kang, and she wants to know about God." I took Xiaokang's hand and introduced her to Pastor Hua, and somehow, I felt that Pastor Hua could bring true peace to Xiaokang's heart.
"Come on, sit down here." Pastor Hua took Teacher Kang's hand, the movement was so natural and kind, Teacher Kang unconsciously followed her to a row of chairs and sat down, I saw Pastor Hua asking some questions, and Teacher Kang cried after a while.
"Sit down, hand over Teacher Kang to Pastor Hua, you can rest assured." Adam pulled me to sit down as well.
"Adam, how long have you been here? Why didn't you call me and Dr. Ali? "I looked up at the cross in front of me, which represented the redemption of suffering, and I was filled with emotion, and it felt like a world away to be able to sit in the church so peacefully after the end of the world.
"I see you're too busy right now, and Dr. Ali is also working very Changxing Island, so I want her to rest first, how about it? Isn't it great here? ”
"Yes, what a beautiful wooden church, and a beautiful flower priest." I tilted my head to look at Adam, "Adam, you have a similar temperament to Pastor Flower, have you noticed?" ”
Adam smiled, "Oh? ”
"To express it in our Northeast vernacular, that is, the two of you are very husband and wife." I whispered, afraid that Pastor Hua would hear it, even though she and Xiaokang sat some distance away from us.
"Really?" Adam was really generous, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all, "I just feel very comfortable talking about God with her, as if I already have a soul." ”
"Huh? It's not easy, Adam, do you like people? I was happy, "Then have you asked, has Pastor Hua ever married?" Pastors are not nuns, they can marry and have children. ”
"Well, I mentioned during the chat that she has never been in a relationship in order to study for graduate school in seminary, and she is still single, and she said that when she prayed a few days ago, she asked God if she had given her the gift of being single." Adam replied, smiling.
The gift of singleness refers to people who are extremely strong in their faith, who are determined to dedicate their lives to God without marrying or marrying, and God has also selected such Christians as missionary disciples, and these people are far more dedicated to the faith than ordinary believers.
"Then you appeared, and it seems that God is not willing to let such a flower-like woman be alone for a lifetime." I was very emotional, since Adam appeared, I have always felt that no woman can be worthy of him, even if many women are as beautiful as flowers, but they just feel that something is missing, and when I see Pastor Flower, I have an intuition that she is too compatible with Adam.
"I haven't told her my true identity yet, Duoduo, do you think she'll accept a clone?" Adam hesitated to say to me.
This one...... I gazed at Adam, so handsome, so personable, so perfect that he really didn't look like a human being, but he was flesh and blood, joys and sorrows, and so on, and what was not really human?
"Cloning human beings is against God's purpose of creating people with aura, the real human beings are all placed in the womb of God by God, only I am created by human beings, so even zombies do not recognize me as a person." Adam's tone was a little frustrated, this ability to walk in the crowd of corpses as if entering a no-man's land, we don't know how much we envy, but in Adam's eyes, it is an existence that proves that he is not accepted by God.
"Man lives in the world for only a few decades, only the world after the death of the body is eternal, and when the time comes, you will all go to heaven to enjoy the glory of God, and only I will truly fade away, like dust." Adam sighed.
"Don't be like this, Adam, you have always been free and easy, why is this sad? I'm not used to it. I whispered to comfort him, but there was really nothing I could do about his worries, as an ordinary human being, I was too small.
"I see, you also need Pastor Hua to explain, so it's better to open up and say it. Maybe the answers we can't get here are easy for Pastor Hua? He's a graduate student at a seminary. "When I think of Pastor Hua, my heart is filled with hope.
"But will she like me as a clone?" Adam seemed to be really magnetic about Pastor Flower, and he was worried about this.
"Adam, do you think it's important to get the soul of a human being, or is it important to get a girl? Of course, it may be very important to you now, after all, it is rare to have a woman you can love, but I think there should be no deception in love, and if you love someone, you must be honest with her, don't you believe in God's arrangement? Then leave this matter to his old man, you first pray well, and then confess to her, as for how she chooses, it depends on how God arranges, leave it to God. ”
