Chapter 167: The Death of Jesus

Four Roman soldiers brought a heavy cross, they stood it against the wall, lifted Jesus from the ground, spread his arms, and tied his arms with ropes.

The weight of the cross nearly crushed Jesus' weak body, but once again the whip was mercilessly whipped on Jesus' body, and the Roman soldiers shouted, "Go away!" You will carry this cross to the place where you die! ”

Jesus walked out of the Doge's palace with his legs wide open, crowded with the citizens of Jerusalem along the way, his expression was very complex, ranging from sympathy and pity to anger and contempt.

Jesus gritted his teeth and walked with difficulty, and several times he fell to the ground due to exhaustion, and the cross on his back almost weighed him down, but the Roman soldiers kept whipping him with leather whips, urging him to get up and hurry.

Some of the congregations shouted, "My master, why are you doing this! You can resist, we await your orders! ”

Jesus cried out, "Do not take revenge! This is my fate, my death is meaningful, and it is meaningless if I am allowed to live alone. ”

The summit of the mountain was not far away, and the setting sun rendered the mountain as if it were redder than blood. All the people of Jerusalem gathered on the top of this hill, waiting for Jesus' coming.

After a difficult walk, Jesus finally reached the top of the mountain with a heavy cross on his back. He was laid flat on the ground, surrounded by Roman soldiers preparing for execution.

One of the soldiers had a hammer and slender iron nails in his hands. He looked at Jesus who had fallen to the ground with a blank face and asked coldly, "Is there anything else you want to say?" ”

Jesus had no strength left, could not utter a word, but gasped feebly.

The soldier did not ask any more questions, he crouched on the ground, pointed the tip of an iron nail at Jesus' arm, and after a moment of hesitation, the hand holding the hammer fell down fiercely.

The nail pierced the flesh of Jesus' palm, pierced the muscles, and even accumulated the phalanges, and the pain caused Jesus to tremble as the nails passed through the palm of his hand and were nailed deep into the cross.

Jesus suddenly cried out, the heart-rending cry of pain, which made everyone's hearts tremble, it was a sudden burst of pain that had been stored up for a long time, his features twisted together, and he continued to scream with his mouth wide open, which made the Roman soldier who had been executed no longer bear to do it.

But the governor's order had to be carried out, and after a moment of hesitation, the soldier hoarded an iron nail into Jesus' other palm.

Then came the feet, the nails that entered Jesus' body again, and Jesus howled in pain with tears streaming down his cheeks.

The cross was erected in the setting sun, and Jesus was crucified on the hill, and the whole of Jerusalem could see the scene.

The cross was surrounded by people, and Jesus had no strength, and he slowly looked up and saw his wife Magdalene, his mother Mary, and his disciple Peter in the crowd.

Jesus shook his head at them, as if to say don't move, but live in safety.

Facing the vanishing sunset, Jesus uttered a final cry to the sun, shouting, "Father, I need you to free me from my pain now!" But where are you! Where is your commitment! ”

Yang Rui heard Jesus' desperate cry, he floated in the air and said to Jesus: "I said earlier that this is your fate, and I did not force you to take this path, all this is your own choice!" ”

Jesus asked, "Will my death really awaken the world?" ”

Yang Rui shook his head and said: "No, your religion will rise, and you will be worshiped as a god by future generations, but your religion will also follow the old path of other religions, and will raise a butcher's knife for endless killing for its own rule." ”

Jesus cried out, "Why is that? Why! ”

Yang Rui said: "This is the original surname of human beings!" ”

Jesus died in despair, and the next day his body was taken down from the cross by the collectors and hastily buried in a cave at the bottom of the mountain. Jesus' body was empty next to him, except for a white linen shroud covering his body, which gave the man the only dignity.

Three days later, in the evening, Peter and the other disciples came to Jesus' tomb, and they secretly carried out Jesus' body and carefully wrapped it for take, leaving only the shroud in the empty tomb.

At this time, Magdalene followed the crowd with her big belly, and she kept crying, but in order not to be noticed, she had to cover her mouth tightly and try not to make a sound, which made her body tremble constantly. Tears wet his cheeks and drip down on Jesus' body.

When they were about to leave, they were stopped by Yang Rui. Everyone saw Yang Rui dressed as a Roman centurion, and they all took out their weapons and prepared to fight him.

Peter clenched his dagger tightly, stared at Yang Rui in front of him with a pair of eyes, and asked, "Who are you, Roman, who are you here to stop us?" ”

Yang Rui said: "I'm not here to stop you, I'm here to give you advice." ”

Peter asked, "What advice?" ”

Yang Rui asked, "What will you do in the future when Jesus died?" ”

No one could give an answer, they were all silent, and Yang Rui said, "Okay, since you have no choice, then listen to my advice." ”

Peter said, "Speak." ”

Yang Rui said: "First of all, take good care of the descendants of Jesus, this is the most important thing you should do. ”

Peter said, "It's easy! ”

Yang Rui continued: "After the death of Jesus, you will be the head of Christianity, continue to carry him forward, because your future is bright!" ”

Peter asked, "How can you be so sure?" ”

Yang Rui said: "As long as you persevere, there will be light, and the Roman Empire will eventually convert to Christianity, as long as you can continue this path." ”

Accord said, "Jesus is dead, faith is gone, so how do we persevere?" ”

Yang Rui said: "Faith is just a rhetoric, and in the end it is just a state of life, it depends on your own choice." Truth is in the hands of power. If you want to avoid being scolded by future generations, you must hold power! This is the only way out for your Christianity, and the only way out for all religions, otherwise you will all be put to death as infidels. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Rui took one last look at the corpse of Jesus and said, "Leave this corpse to me, you will not take him away, for the sake of Magdalene and the descendants of Jesus." ”

Peter said, "The Romans will track down Jesus' body when he is gone, and I have always disagreed with this practice, but Magdalene insisted on doing so." ”

Yang Rui smiled and said, "Won't you make up a lie?" ”

"Lies?" Peter was puzzled.

Yang Rui said: "Wouldn't it be better for you to say that Jesus was resurrected and went to heaven, so that your followers will be more convinced that their faith is correct." ”

Peter bowed down to Yang Rui and thanked him and said, "Thank you for the reminder." ”

Accord suddenly said, "What will be done with that traitor to Judas?" ”

Yang Rui said: "He is dead, and I helped him die in the field that I bought with the money I bought in exchange for the betrayal of Jesus. ”

Peter said, "Thank you for your help, please tell me your name, and I will write your story in the scriptures." ”

Yang Rui waved his hand and said, "This is not necessary, because I wrote the scripture and gave it to Jesus." ”

In the amazement of everyone, Yang Rui turned to leave, and he said loudly without looking back: "Go quickly, the Romans will soon find out." ”

At the same time, Jesus' body disappeared with Yang Rui.

Yang Rui returned to the shrine, Jesus' body was lying quietly in front of him, he stretched out his hand and used divine power to turn Jesus's ** into a crystal clear cell, and threw it into the well, he watched the cell be flooded by the warm water and disappear into the depths, and he said to Samael next to him: "His mission is over." ”

Samael said, "But your purpose has been accomplished. ”

Yang Rui sighed and said, "That's just a small step, and my goal is far from being reached." ”

Samael said: "Is there too much killing? ”

Yang Rui said: "This is just the beginning! (To be continued.) )
