Chapter Twenty-Three: There Is No God
Tang Shu looked outside, and wondered how the other party could see the location of the priest in such a thick fog, it stands to reason that if there is no auxiliary equipment such as a thermal sensor, it will not be able to see.
Tang Shuxing turned to look at the priest who was holding his wound and gritting his teeth, and was about to say something, but he heard the priest shouting: "Children, lay down your weapons, if you continue like this, this place will become a killing again!" While the muzzle of your gun is pointed at God's dwelling, there are other guns pointed at you! ”
Tang Shuxing was startled and glared at the priest, because the priest's words were obviously reminding people outside that there were Tang Shuxing and others.
Sure enough, after saying this, Ji Kefeng immediately said: "They scattered, they should have discovered us." ”
Gu Yan also immediately said: "They are divided into three groups, one group is facing the gate, and the other two groups are scattered to search for me and Master Ji." ”
"Don't fire! Absolutely not! Something is not right! Tang Shuxing frowned, looked at the priest, pressed the intercom and said, "You go back, if you are forced to meet the enemy, don't kill the killer, just knock out, you two can do it." ”
Ji Kefeng scolded secretly, put away the assault rifle, took out the pistol to load the silencer, and when he stepped back, he said at the same time: "It's always okay to be injured, right?" If you don't hit the point, they are in the majority, and you don't know who they are, so you can't tell. ”
"It's miscellaneous." Gu Yan continued to observe, "There is one who seems to have little experience, like a civilian, and the other group of people should be military-trained soldiers, very cautious, from the route taken in the process of advancing, as well as the gestures between each other, they should have rich battlefield experience. ”
Tang Shuxing slowly moved to the priest and asked in a low voice, "Who are they?" You should know each other, right? ”
The priest shook his head: "I know, and I don't know, God knows everyone, but I am God's spokesman, I don't necessarily know everyone, God hasn't given me instructions yet." ”
Tang Shuxing patiently asked, "What kind of teaching are you?" ”
"God has no name, God is God, God's religion has no name, it can be any name, and God's people have only one common name." The priest's face was pale.
Tang Shuxing leaned closer and said, "Are you sick?" You're useless to me! ”
The priest cried out: "Children, if you want to do it against God, come, God is not afraid!" Come on! Come on! God will bring you and your families into God's world! Come on! ”
Tang Shuxing pulled out his pistol and pointed it at the priest, but at the same time as he pointed at the priest, he noticed that the disciples behind him had collectively made some movements, he turned his head to look, and found that everyone was clutching the blood-colored crosses on his chest, which were all large and hung on his chest with thick chains.
Tang Shuxing slowly took the gun out of front of the priest's eyes and put it into the holster, this action seemed to have magic, and it also made these people release the cross in their hands.
Tang Shuxing understood something, smiled at the priest, then got up and slowly walked out with his hands raised, and said to the people outside: "I'm not a priest, I'm the team participating in this Gu Hunting Ground Competition, I'm the only one in Asia who competes, my teammates are around you, I'm Tang Shuxing, you should know my name, and you know my ability, even if you shoot, you may not be able to kill me, on the contrary, you will die, and you won't be able to achieve your goal." ”
After speaking, Tang Shuxing glanced sideways at the church, and said, "I know your purpose is this priest, but I don't know why you want to kill him, in my opinion, this guy seems to be a cult leader." ”
"You're smart!" Out of the thick fog came a man with a gun, followed by two soldiers with rifles, aiming at Tang Shuxing. The man glanced at the inside of the church and said, "I'm not your enemy, I'm not a participating team, if I'm not mistaken, the demarcated competition area is still more than fifty kilometers away from here, you went to the wrong place, now, I'll solve my affairs, you go yours, the river water doesn't interfere with the well water." ”
Tang Shuxing put down his hands: "But I want to know what's going on here, since the organizer got me here, there must be his purpose, I don't want to interfere, I just want to figure out what's going on." ”
The man nodded: "Okay, then you go in and bring the priest out, and I'll tell you again." ”
Tang Shuxing shook his head: "It's better not to." ”
"Why?" The man frowned.
Tang Shu said: "Because this guy seems to be holding the lives of dozens of people in the church, I don't know how he did it, in short, it seems that as soon as he dies, these people will die with him, and the cross on their chest seems to be a murder weapon, maybe a knife in it, maybe poison." ”
"It's poison!" The soldier next to him gritted his teeth and said, "That's how my sister died!" This bastard! ”
Tang Shuxing nodded: "As I guessed, this is a cult." ”
"Yes." The man in the lead of the other party said, "This is indeed a cult, have you seen the cemetery around the church?" He killed hundreds of people over the years, all of them were living people, and he persuaded them to commit suicide, saying that it was a way to relieve their pain, and he was a wretch! ”
As the man spoke, the priest appeared in the doorway leaning against the wall, followed by his own group of worshippers, all standing there with crosses in their hands, their eyes glazed.
"Only by going to God will God be relieved of your suffering, and I am helping you!" The priest looked at the man in the lead, "Herm, you used to be the closest child of God, why are you like this now?" Why? ”
The leader of Hem stepped forward: "Priest, don't you feel ashamed to carry the name of this so-called priest?" You're a serial murderer at all, and you're instigating people to die, which is not what a priest should do, tell the truth about those behind you and let them go! ”
The priest stood there with his arms outstretched, and immediately behind him a congregation rushed up and supported him.
The priest struggled to say: "The end has come, the fire of heaven has fallen, and the fog is thick, these are God's punishments, because God is telling us that we should return to God's kingdom and should no longer stay in the world invaded by hell." ”
Tang Shuxing frowned and looked at it, as if he saw another Reinhardt appear in front of him, such an inexplicable religion poured out again and again, but probably no one could control so many people with Shangtujiao like Reinhardt.
"Priest, what you say is the same as that of the monks, all under the banner of doomsday, is it useful?" Tang Shuxing stepped forward and looked at the people standing behind him, "How did the end come?" It is caused by human beings themselves, not God, if there is really a God, God is perfect, and a perfect God cannot make the world suffer, God has already intervened to change all this, so that there will be no more war and ugliness in this world, but the situation is getting worse and worse, which shows that there is no god in the world at all! ”
The priest's face became ugly, and the people behind him also looked at Tang Shuxing in great surprise, because Tang Shuxing's words were disrespectful, it should be said that in various religions, Tang Shuxing's words were all disrespectful, and hundreds of years ago, he had already been subjected to religious torture.
Herm was also surprised that Tang Shuxing could say this, after all, in the eyes of most people who knew Tang Shuxing, they thought that he was a loyal Shangtu, but as everyone knows, Tang Shuxing had never joined the ridiculous sect founded by Reinhardt.
"You ......" the priest waited for Tang Shu's punishment, "you ......"
Tang Shuxing walked up to the priest: "Didn't you say that you are the spokesman of God?" Come, use your divine power to punish me, to stop me. ”
The priest shouted: "God will send down the fire of heaven!" ”
Tang Shuxing shook his head: "Enough, don't act, you are just a poor and desperate person, I believe, you used to want to help people, but you were desperate, you decided to encourage everyone to die, because you think that as long as people die, you can be liberated, there will be no more pain, religion is to bring hope to people, not despair, just like nationality, to bring people knowledge at the same time, but also to let people live strongly, instead of instigating people to give up, and then die, that is not liberation, that is a kind of irresponsibility, is cowardice." ”
"Heavenly fire! God will send down the fire of heaven! The priest shouted there, and the faithful behind him knelt down and wept in a low voice.
Tang Shuxing took a deep breath: "Priest, even if I believe in the existence of God, God should save the world, not abandon the world, if one person is wrong, it does not mean that everyone has done wrong, and if one person makes a mistake, everyone should not be allowed to bear the fault of that person, God is full of wisdom, not a tyrant, only the devil will do what you say, what do you think?" ”
Tang Shuxing said, looking at the others behind him: "You think you are guilty, everyone is guilty, and guilt is just repentance?" Confession is just verbal, for example, if you stab someone with a knife, would it be enough if you just bowed and said sorry? Not enough, you should put down the knife and save those you have hurt, and persuade more people who take up the knife to hurt others, and lay down their weapons, instead of sitting there and praying, prayer alone is useless, you need to act. ”
Some of the disciples below raised their heads slightly and looked at Tang Shuxing.
Tang Shuxing squatted down and said, "Actually, you all know that you just choose not to think about it, choose to hide in this place, enjoy a short period of comfort, and then think that by listening to this priest and killing yourself, you can get eternal liberation!" When a person dies, he dies, and there is nothing left, but what are you leaving for others? Pain and sorrow, and at the same time being charged with stupidity. ”
"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! The priest shouted, turning to look at his followers, "Don't listen to them, drink the holy water, drink it!" Drink it down! Drink it and you'll go to heaven! ”
Tang Shuxing suddenly turned into a corpse, startling the priest and everyone, he stepped forward, snatched the cross of one of the disciples, and found that it was indeed a container, he held up the container and asked, "Drink this and you can ascend to heaven, right?" ”
The priest nodded fiercely, he now wished that Tang Shuxing would drink it and die immediately.
Tang Shuxing sneered, raised his head and drank all the liquid in the container...... R52
