Chapter 49: The Church of Truth
On the mainland, the only theistic religion is the Church of Truth, and they believe in the only true God of all things, the origin of all rules, the God of truth. The priest is a unique profession of the Church of Truth, and he has a mysterious and unique source power inheritance - divine art.
Tang Qi is still the first time to see the priest, in the Tower Kingdom, the Church of Truth is weak, since the death of magic, the rise of steam technology, the great scholar Osric published the book "Mathematical Principles of Natural Science", the Church of Truth has completely lost the control of the northern part of the continent, and then the rise of one of the three major empires, the Silver Empire, has suppressed the mission scope of the Church of Truth around the Twilight Empire.
If it weren't for the legendary pope of the church, with the strength of the strongest man in the world, who signed the Freedom of Belief Act with various countries, the Far North Tower Kingdom would not have seen the existence of churches at all.
Existence is reasonable, Tang Qi is not resistant to the church, faith itself is just a kind of spiritual sustenance, he doesn't believe it, but there are always people who lack spiritual sustenance in need, and it is said that the priest has mastered the source of healing skills and helps people heal, which is a good thing.
However, Donkey's impression of the church's modest liking completely disappeared within minutes of Pastor Brown entering the door.
Looking at the priest who had lost his hair a little when he entered the house, he looked like he was in his own home, not to mention that his lustful eyes always lingered on Lily's chest and buttocks. I really wanted to kick him out, Tang Qi thought with a smile on his face.
Lily led the priest to the deepest bedroom, and Tang Qi followed.
Pushing open the door, the sun was shining through, a warm sunny bedroom, the furnishings were clean and tidy, the inner wall was against the bed, a young man who was not a few years older than Lily was lying, his appearance was similar to Lily, covered with two quilts, and his face was as pale as paper.
The strong smell of medicine in the room made Tang Qi pinch his nose.
Brown had a solemn expression, came to the window, put a hand on the patient's forehead, and suddenly a warm light appeared, the light poured like flowing water, full of holiness, and looked at Tang Qi with straight eyes. This magic looks really powerful, a bit of a priest's demeanor.
"Yes, kid, you're taking good care of it. The warm light dissipated, and Brown was sweating lightly, holding the Bible in his hand, and holding Lily's hand in praise.
"Your brother has suffered a serious wound and has lost too much blood to see the wind, so you continue to help him cover the quilt, take the holy water I have given you every day, pray sincerely, and he will be cured in a few weeks. Brown clapped Lily's hand, "Poor child, may the merciful and good Lord bless you." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Brown. Lily was grabbed by his hand, and after two twitches, she didn't pull it out, and said with a red face: "My brother's injury has been yellow recently, you can see what's going on." ”
"Child, it doesn't matter if the disease wants to take your brother's life, you just need to pray sincerely, and your sincere prayer will be protected by the Lord, and the evil spirits of pain will be far away from those around you. ”
"What should I do?"
Brown paused: "You come to my house in the early hours of tonight, I pray with you, the early hours of the morning is the time for demonic activities, and you can take the opportunity to destroy him." ”
"This ...... How can this work!" Lily said in a lost voice, her hand retracting.
"Kid, don't you want to redeem your brother?" said Brown unhurriedly, he was very skilled in this way, and it was usually difficult for the other party to refuse the request when he said such words. However, all he got was a sudden punch.
Boom, Lily listened to the pain when she saw Pastor Brown being punched to the ground by Donkey.
Tang Qi couldn't listen to it anymore, where is this priest, he is clearly an old pervert, he actually asked Lily to wrap the wounded person in a quilt, causing the wound to pus, taking the opportunity to pull Lily to his house, and praying in the early morning, I have to bathe and change clothes before praying.
Thinking of this, Tang Qi kicked him again, this respected priest has the strength of the mid-term accumulation of source qi, but unfortunately in the face of Tang Qi, he has no power to fight back at all.
"Big Brother Tang Qi. ”
Lily watched Tang Qi knock the priest down, and after a slight hesitation between Allah and Tang Qi, she completely fell to Tang Qi's side......
The status of the priest is still very detached, and the church and the aristocracy are also closely related, Tang Qi kicked his feet and stopped, and the pastor Brown got up from the ground in embarrassment, holding his lower abdomen and pointing at Tang Qi: "You, you, you...... How dare you insult a priest, it's disrespectful to the Lord, and you will all be punished!"
His fingertips trembled angrily: "I was kind enough to heal the sick, and you actually did it to me! Even the most cruel butcher would not hurt a priest who heals people." ”
"Heal, you?" Tang Qi plucked his ears: "Is it by prayer and holy water, or by your healing method of wrapping in a quilt?"
"Are you questioning the pastor? poor sinner, do you know what healing is, are you a physician or a pastor? ”
"Neither. ”
Jesus has said that taking ignorance for reason is the evil that obscures the way of truth. And your ignorance will murder a poor life, and all this, you just want to show yourself in front of his sister. Brown held the Bible and said: "Lost man, you are deceived by the devil of ****, delusional to get her body by despicable means, your soul and body are full of filth, only the merciful and forgiving Lord can save your soul, and it is still too late to repent." ”
Looking at the solemn priest, Tang Qi thought for a moment and slowly pulled out the dagger from his waist.
"What do you want to do!" Brown shouted in a high-pitched voice.
"Nothing. Tang Qi threw the dagger and said lightly: "I heard that the priest has magical healing powers, and it just so happens that I can also use a little healing method, so it's better to do this." We each make wounds and then treat them, and if you work well, I admit that your treatment is right, and if I work well, you admit that you are a liar. ”
"This ...... Healing is a sacred thing, how can I do that as a pastor. Brown stumbled.
"I don't dare, I'm a liar after all. ”
"You! Brown said angrily, but with a little trick.
Tang Qi raised his eyebrows, did not hesitate, flicked his fingers, and threw the dagger violently.
Brown screamed, his arm was cut open, the blood instantly soaked through the priest's robe, the pain made his mind blank, but he heard Tang Qi say slowly: "Everyone has a different ability to recover, since it is a competition, of course you have to choose an injured person." ”
Brown was about to scold when he heard this, but suddenly felt the wound itch, and then visibly stopped the bleeding.
The miraculous scene made him shut up instantly, how could it be! He looked at Tang Qi in shock. I saw Tang Qi holding a wooden stick like a cane, which was carved with strange patterns and emitted green light.
The knife wound healed quickly, Brown muttered to himself, and when he came back to his senses and saw Tang Qi's cold eyes, he shuddered, quickly copied the Bible and the cross, and ran out of the room.
Standing side by side with Lily in front of the window, watching Brown disappear into the streets.
The hand was suddenly held by a pair of soft and boneless hands, Tang Qi smiled lightly and looked at Lily's pleading eyes:
"Don't worry, I'll treat your brother, and don't trust this kind of guy in the future. “
"Well, definitely. ”
