353 Twisted and corroded
There were no more prayers in the ascetic's head, and the words "the edicts issued by the current pope were all done by the archbishop" and "the children of darkness who usurped the world" were like thunder and rumbling like an undersea volcano erupting in his consciousness, disturbing him without a trace of peace.
He had always known that his cousin was running with the whole of Neustria into the abyss of depravity, and that the Pope was also in Neustria, but he had always been concerned about his cousin's depravity, and had never specifically linked the two, and now he realized that his dear cousin might have taken the Pope hostage and issued an edict in the name of the Pope—to all of Neustria, oh my!
He had been immersed in this distress for a long time, disturbed by the terrible prospect that had just come to mind, and his senses could feel the laughter and the singing of birds and flowers outside, but his heart felt nothing of it, and his physical eyes could see bright sunshine and pleasant greenery, but his spiritual eyes saw only an infinite flame that would burn his cousin and all of Neustria, forever and ever.
The bell rang again, reminding everyone in the hospital that their lunch break was over and they should go back to work, and the nurse who had just delivered the food came to collect the food cart and saw the ascetic kneeling on the floor with his eyes blank, and the food and drink next to him were already cold and did not move at all.
When he was hungry, he would eat, the nurse thought disapprovingly, of course, she was going to take most of it...... Leaving a few slices of bread for this little tsundere should be enough......
"What are the Light and Dark Twins?" As she covered the plates in the dining cart with a silver cover, the ascetic suddenly asked.
He really asked a good question, the food delivery nurse was a very devout - for a Neustrian church - a believer. She was the golden rule for every word the church had promulgated. Well, limited to those promulgated by the Church under the reign of Her Majesty the Queen. Before the Church promulgated because neither could the land be harvested. Nor can it help women through the difficulties of production, so they are directly ignored by the simple dialectic of the working people below. On the contrary, those with Neustria's characteristics are all memorized by her, but in today's Neustria, there are really not many people who are not familiar with it, firstly, this is closely related to their lives, and secondly, there are many special effects, the plot is very simple, and the most important thing is the popularity of miracle dramas that do not require money.
She immediately cleared her throat with a snort. Then he poured out and recited like a stream: "When the first flames were extinguished, and the earth cooled down and was soaked with the waters of the primordial sea, the head of God came into the world, and his presence came to the surface of the sea like a meteor streaked across the heavens......"
By the time she had finished the general contents of the book of Genesis, the archbishop's cousin had gone from one state of confusion to another, and she automatically made up the other person's expression to that of a country man who was stunned by her own knowledge (such a person is very common among foreign pilgrims), and pushed the food cart away contentedly, with the sense that I had enlightened the church today with the preaching of another believer. He also thoughtfully left this teachable young man with a pigeon meat pie that was delicious even when it was cold, instead of the bread slice that had been originally ordered.
This is critical.
The ascetic, having recovered from his stuporous stupor, was stunned by the new Genesis contents, instinctively grabbed what he was holding and bit out of anger, and when he found himself eating the fast that the Brothers of Geoffrey had decided to fast—and that there was little left of the delicious oily pie and it was too late to induce vomiting—he became more and more sure that Neustria had fallen into the abyss of demons.
Even himself......
No way! Absolutely not! Degradation is absolutely not allowed!
His eyes flashed across his mother's modest robes. He followed her to fetch water and pray, the dark church, the golden altar and the flame of the burning candles. The funeral bells, "She is in heaven." Attainment in the kingdom of heaven and eternal happiness and peace. Praise the gods with your father", Aunt Margaret, "You are my child from now on" "He will live with us from now on?" "Yes, my child" "Why?" "He's your brother...... Then, the splendid costume of the archbishop from last night flashed before him...... Also, the gaze that looked at him on that beautiful face was as awe-inspiring as a blade...... He can't go on like this! He had to find a way!
"Oh? That stupid cousin of yours, you say? You know - we registered as soon as he came ashore, how? "The Chief of Staff has always been perfect in terms of provocations, "Although he has no signs of violence, we have always kept him under surveillance, and this is all because he is your relative, and to be honest, fortunately you are such a relative, otherwise we would have been bankrupt long ago if we had spent all our manpower on such inconsequential aspects--Your Majesty, I think I will first ...... appropriations and staffing."
"I'll talk about appropriations and personnel at the meeting!" Her Majesty the Queen roared at the Chief of Staff in a loud voice, not because she wanted to show her authority, but because she still wanted to catch up with the meal, and she didn't want to sacrifice her stomach after sacrificing sleep for the Chief of Staff, "Since you have given surveillance, why don't you report it?" ”
"Well, you ordered a month ago that you don't have to report anything unless there are suspicious people with violent tendencies......"
"Is there such a thing? Well, I don't remember. After this reminder, Her Majesty Xià, who was busy with official business, and dressed up as handsome guys and beauties, and read gossip and ran tabloids, only vaguely remembered that there was indeed such a thing, and she glared at the chief of staff in annoyance, who was not at all pained by this, "But he really has no violent tendencies?" His remarks ......"
"Isn't he already in prison? I don't think he's good enough to run out of prison on his own, in that case......," the chief of staff was about to say, "I'll admit that I lost my eyes when I was classified," but he squinted his eyes and saw the unnatural look on the other side, "Aha, don't you sue me, he's already gone?" ”
"No, he's hospitalized." The archbishop snorted unhappily, admitting that he had not had the upper hand in the encounter.
"Oh, that's so unfortunate." The Chief of Staff expressed his concern for the hospitalization of the only relative of the leader of the Church in Neustria in a voice that even a fool could hear, "Does he matter?" ”
"Unfortunately, he's fine," said the archbishop in a stern, cold, dry voice, "as long as he's willing to eat, he'll be alive and kicking off soon." ”
He said all that, and so, after receiving reports that his dear cousin had eaten a large piece of fragrant pigeon meat pie, threw the note out in fright.
What a miracle! (To be continued......)
