Just as Abram's sword-raising hand fell, suddenly a thunderclap exploded in the sky, and a seraphim descended from the sky and grabbed Abram's hand.

The Seraphim was none other than Michael, and he said to Abram, "Stop! ”

Abram replied, "God told me to make a burnt offering for my son, and I had to do it, and you could not stop me." ”

Michael snatched the dagger from Abram's hand and said, "God has sent me." ”

Abram looked at Michael suspiciously and asked, "God sent you?" ”

"Yes, Abram." A smile appeared on Michael's face and he said, "God has asked you to make an offering of your son Isaac as a burnt offering, but it is only a test for you, because it is beyond the limits of what mortals can do." But you did, and you passed God's test. ”

"God is testing me?"

"Of course." Michael goes on to say, "God needs to test mortals before he can be entrusted with a great task. ”

After saying this, Michael told Abram to kneel on the ground, and he said, "By the will of God, from now on you will no longer be called Abram, and God will change your name to Abraham, and you will be the king of the Hebrews, and you will have many lands and kingdoms." ”

With that, Michael loosened the shackles of the frightened Isaac, and then reassured him, saying, "Isaac, don't weep. You will become the most indispensable figure in the history of mankind. ”

Isaac asked, "What will I do?" ”

Michael stroked the soft hair on Isaac's forehead and said, "You will live your life in peace, and unlike your father, God will give you twelve sons, and these twelve sons will blossom in the land of all seas and continents, multiply countless children, and establish new nations, and one of them will give birth to a great prophet in a few years." And you are the ancestor of this prophet. ”

Isaac said, "But I want to do something for God, to be favored by God through my efforts." ”

Michael said, "Isaac, my child. God's grace is not earned through diligence and hard work. Cain and Abel are living examples. Cain's diligence and hard work did not gain God's favor, but Abel did. ”

Isaac asked, "Why is that?" ”

Michael said, "It was a gift from God, and it had nothing to do with diligence or effort. As long as you are single-mindedly in God's will, you will receive grace. ”

Later, Michael said to Abraham, "Take your son and go back and live well, for God has blessed you as the father of many nations." ”

Abraham took his son Isaac and returned home with the Seraphim Michael.

Yang Rui could see all this in the sky, and when Michael came to his side, he nodded and said, "Thank you for what you did." ”

Michael said, "My master, why are you doing this. ”

"It is extremely difficult for a man to have a strong faith, and Abraham did it, so I blessed him, and his story will be passed on forever as an example for future generations," Yang said. ”

Michael said, "You have said that you will no longer ask about mortal things, but why do you have to appear again and again? ”

"Sometimes, things don't go the way they were originally designed and I have to intervene to get it back on the right track," Yang said. ”

Michael asked, "Why is that?" ”

Yang Rui said: "People's hearts are unpredictable. ”

Michael was a little puzzled, but then he asked, "My master, what will you do next?" ”

Yang Rui turned his head and looked at Michael with a smile and said, "There are still some people waiting for me to guide." ”

After saying that, Yang Rui left Michael and came to the beautiful Aegean Sea, the territory of the Greeks, where countless large and small city-states sprung up, and in Athens, the majestic Mount Olympia still stands.

The flood did not destroy the Sumers, they used magic to lift the mountain to avoid the flood, which Yang Rui had long expected.

After the repetition, the Sumers no longer took a step down Mount Olympia, which lived a secluded life in the mountains. And just below the mountain, the Greeks had flourished, and every day they were peering at the mountain that radiated a magical light.

Athens is a beautiful city, full of fountains, gardens and sculptures. The Greeks have incorporated culture and art into their daily lives, so that they live in a positive state every day.

Yang Rui liked this state very much, because it made the energy field in Athens extremely powerful, and he could absorb this endless energy by walking through the streets.

In a tavern, Yang Rui sat down to take a nap.

The tavern was a bustling city where the city's nobles and merchants were regulars, who made deals, made political agreements, and even conspired to do shady things.

Yang Rui saw all this, but he didn't want to interfere.

At this moment a fat man walked into the tavern, and immediately caused a sensation, and someone asked, "Homer, how is your new psalm doing?" The Odyssey has mesmerized me. ”

Homer found a spacious seat, ordered a glass of wine, and said, "The new Psalms will surely surprise you even more." ”

Someone chimed in: "Let's hear how." ”

Homer drank the wine, thought about it for a while, and said, "This is a description of a war, in the far east there was a great city called Troy, where the king had robbed the Greek wife Helen, and the warrior Achilles led the Greek coalition to besiege Troy for ten years. ”

"That must be a good story." Someone admired.

Someone added, "Your psalms sound much more interesting than Socrates' theory of a stubborn old man." ”

Homer shook his head and said, "I have a bit more affection than Socrates, and you can't slander Socrates' great achievements like this." ”

Yang Rui was dressed like a typical Greek nobleman, which made him look extremely inconspicuous in the crowd, and he silently looked at Homer in front of him chatting with others, and a hint of an intriguing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When Homer left the tavern, Yang Rui followed, and in the chaotic streets, Yang Rui caught up with Homer and said, "Your psalms are indeed good. ”

Homer glanced at Yang Rui, who was walking beside him, and saw that he was dressed as a nobleman, so he said politely: "Your Excellency, if you want to know more about the content of the epic, I'm afraid I have nothing to say, so let's wait until I finish the creation and then preach it to all the Greeks." ”

Yang Rui said: "I'm not interested in your epic, but I want to tell you, do you believe that everything you depict really exists?" ”

Homer stopped, looked at Yang Rui suspiciously, and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Yang Rui said: "The Greeks looked up at the peak of Mount Olympia every day, and legend has it that there are many great stories that have happened where the gods lived. Do you really believe in the existence of God? ”

Homer said firmly: "Those who can only deceive the ignorant will not believe in the existence of those things." ”

Yang Rui asked, "Then what is the significance of you writing these psalms?" ”

Homer replied, "No comment." ”

Yang Rui said: "If it's for life, I can understand, but if it's for fooling the people, it's your fault." ”

Homer asked sharply, "Who are you?" ”

Yang Rui said calmly: "I am the one who came to tell you the truth. ”

"The truth?"

Yang Rui said: "People sometimes need to be fooled or even bewitched, but those who fool and bewitch them cannot lose their way. Otherwise, when they believe what they have made up, it will be a mess in the world. ”

Homer asked, "What exactly do you want to say?" ”

Yang Rui said: "I'm here to tell you that there are gods in this world. But he was not on Mount Olympia. ”

Homer was amazed and asked, "Where is the god?" ”

Yang Rui smiled and said, "That's it, I'll take you to Olympia Mountain for a walk, and you'll know for yourself." ”

Homer said, "But no one can go up that mountain." ”

Yang Rui had already walked in front at this time, he turned his head and asked, "Do you want to see the truth of the facts, then follow me." (To be continued.) )
