Chapter 150: Lies

Yang Rui was not panicked, he looked at Maria calmly and continued to say calmly: "An unmarried Jewish woman should have been a virgin in an instant. But now that she is pregnant, how will she face her family and friends, and more importantly, her future husband? ”

The words almost knocked Maria to the ground, and she hurried to the table so that she would not lose her center of gravity, her face turned pale, and the corners of her lips trembled slightly with fear.

Seeing Maria's panicked expression, Yang Rui said, "Am I right? ”

Maria was silent for a long time, then pressed her teeth and said, "What you said is all a lie, please leave my house immediately?" ”

Yang Rui said: "Whether mine is a lie or not, we will know in a few months." Because you can lie, but your body can't lie, and your belly will bulge after a while because of the growth of the child, and then how will you use lies to deceive the people around you? ”

Maria's spirit broke down, she collapsed in her chair all at once, tears welling up in her mouth, and her mouth said: "What should I do, I have committed a great sin." ”

Yang Rui's expression was still calm, and he asked Maria, "That negative person is gone?" ”

Maria sobbed and nodded, "He said he would come to pick me up, but he didn't show up again today." I'm desperate. ”

Yang Rui continued to ask: "What are your plans in the future?" ”

Maria said, "I don't know, I have committed the Ten Commandments, which is a felony and no one can save me, and I will be stoned to death by my people." ”

Yang Rui asked the third question at this time: "Do you want to die?" ”

Maria shook her head desperately and said, "I don't want to die!" ”

Yang Rui said: "Since you don't want to die, then do what I say, and I will definitely be able to save your life." ”

Maria touched her eyes and asked, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Yang Rui said: "No matter what, to tell the truth, you must die." Then you can only lie in order to save your life. ”

"It's obvious," said Maria, "what kind of lies can I use to get people to let my crime go? ”

Yang Ruichao Maria pricked her eyes and said, "You just tell the heavy people that this child was inspired by God in your dream, and it was God who sowed the seed in your body and conceived this child." And claim that this child is the Son of God. ”

Hearing this, Maria continued to cry: "No one will believe it, this is the greatest blasphemy and offense against God. ”

Yang Rui said: "People will believe it. ”

Maria asked, "Why is that?" ”

Yang Rui said: "As long as you insist on saying this, you will escape, and you and your children will survive." ”

Maria asked uneasily, "But what if they really don't believe it?" ”

Yang Rui'an steadied her and said: "I will protect you, as long as you grit your teeth and say so, you can live." ”

"Really?"

Yang Rui laughed and said, "I said, I'm here to help you." ”

Since Yang Rui left, Maria has spent every day in fear and conflict, she wears a wide linen robe every day, which is enough for outsiders to peep into the subtle changes in her body, but her belly grows day by day, and no amount of wide robe can hide the result of the child's imminent birth.

That day, Maria's mother told her to carry water, and even though she was no longer able to move freely, she gritted her teeth and went.

At the slippery well, she finally fainted from the exertion, and the women around her hurriedly helped her up. At first, the men thought Maria was sick, but when they accidentally saw Maria's big belly, they were all stunned.

Maria knew that this moment was coming, and so she no longer seemed frightened, but calm, her eyes steadfast, clenching on the sacrifice that had been taken away by Nazareth.

In the Jewish temple of this small city, it was crowded with the patriarchs and ** of the place, and those of low status, including her own family and Joseph's family, were all blocked by the clergy from looking inward outside the temple.

Maria knelt on the marble floor and watched as the priests were staring at her with cold eyes, as if gravel could kill her.

After a long time, the priest asked, "Maria, you are now in the temple, and in the presence of the gods, you have to tell the truth, whether you are pregnant or not." ”

Maria gasped for breath and nodded firmly, "Yes." ”

Before they could say a word, the crowd erupted in exclamations, the men bowed their heads and sighed, while the women all covered their mouths in disbelief that this was all true.

The priest continued: "Who is the father of this child?" ”

Maria fell silent, looked down at the ground for a long time, then looked up again and said, "The father of this child is a god!" ”

The entire people inside and outside the temple were shocked, and even the priests were so shocked that their mouths widened and looked at each other, for fear that they had misheard.

Maria straightened up, raised her head and said loudly, "The child in my womb is the son of God, God came to me in a dream a few months ago and gave me an important revelation to conceive his son. And this child is the Messiah of this world, who has come to save this fallen world. ”

"Blasphemy!" The crowd erupted in rage, all of them waving their fists angrily at Maria, shouting, "Stone her!" This shitty woman! Smash her to death! ”

The priest was also ignited with anger in his heart by Maria's words, and he stood up and shouted: "Throw her into the fire of the burnt offering and burn her, and see if she dares to blaspheme the gods like this." ”

Amid the cheers of the crowd, the clergy violently pulled Maria from the ground and dragged her towards the burnt offering outside the temple. Where a raging fire awaits a devastated Maria.

Maria, who had been lifted above her head by the able-bodied clergy, was still shouting, "I am a child of God in my body, a Messiah!" You can't do this to me! ”

"Burn him!" The crowd was still roaring.

Just as Maria was about to be thrown into the fire, suddenly there was a thunderclap in the sky, and a bolt of lightning struck the fire of the burnt offering, and the fire was torn apart and sparks were scattered. The frightened crowd retreated.

At the same time, black clouds were piled up in the sky, thunder and lightning continued to appear, and a seemingly non-existent figure loomed in the sky, and everyone saw this miracle.

A force lifted Maria up gently and floated in the air, her arms stretched out, as if she were lying on a large transparent bed.

Then the force sent Maria back to the ground again, and the beautiful woman stood firmly on the ground. (To be continued.) )
