Chapter 58: The Seven Days of Talks (Part II)
Robert didn't notice anything different, he walked to the center of the crowd and asked the man next to him, "The gospel has begun?"
"Not yet, it'll start in a while. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"Oh, thank you. ”
Then he turned to Liu Zijin and said with a smile: "You are lucky, you can see the spread of the gospel as soon as you come." ”
"Oh, is there anything special here?"
"Do you remember what I told you last time, when you really can't do anything, come to church, and the church will give you money and food. And now, that is the time. ”
"Aren't there any jobs in the neighborhood?"
"Not necessarily, in fact, anyone can come and get it, but some people don't want to come. ”
"That's ......"
"Well, there are some other things, I directly explained that you may not understand, and when you read it, you will understand it all. You see, it's about to begin. ”
Robert was referring to the nun who had just walked out of the church, dressed in a special uniform and black, and when she smiled, she felt warmer than the soft sunlight in the sky. As soon as she walked out, a glutinous aroma made people's bodies relax.
"Hello everyone, another twelve days have passed. Today is also a good day, and I sincerely thank you all for taking the time to come to church and listen to me spread the gospel in this beautiful weather. Without further ado, let's get straight to the point. ”
As she spoke, a pink fan appeared in the nun's hand, and she smiled sweetly with the fan and danced with it. Her dancing posture is elegant and moving, at first glance, it is a magnificent dance posture that has been passed down by the times and her own hard work, and in the flip of her wrist, a faint red light slowly escapes, enveloping the people and the church.
The more she danced, the brighter the light became, and the brighter the light, the darker it became, until after everyone was shrouded in the light, leaving only them as black churches, the nun stopped dancing. She put down her fan and prayed with her fingers crossed: "Great Lord, please give us again what is in remembrance of us, what is loved for us, and what is remanded for us through your gifts." ”
The red light began to flow rapidly, as if looking for its master. After all the lights were in place, with the sound of a nun's fan, something slowly appeared in the red light.
In front of some people are priceless gold and silver treasures, some people are in front of wonderful works of art, and some people are sharp weapons in front of them. And others, with a pitiful amount of paper money in front of them, scattered pamphlets, and tattered paper weapons. The only thing that can comfort them is the food that everyone has in front of them, the food that makes people appetize at the first sight.
There was only one exception, there was no red light on him, nothing appeared on him, and everyone around him was only concerned about what he had gained today, and no one noticed him except the nun. The nun kept looking at Liu Zijin with meaningful eyes, even though Liu Zijin was well disguised and deliberately approached others, but the nun still found out.
She sang the hymn, and everyone closed their eyes and thanked the Lord for the gift. And Liu Zijin secretly exposed a slit, and he saw that the red lights in the air were colliding, crossing, and finally turning cyan and disappearing invisibly.
After the hymn, the nun smiled and said, "Today's gospel is over, if you want to come again, there will be a small gospel in six days, and if you don't need it so much, you are welcome to come again in twelve days to bask in the glory of the Lord." Goodbye everyone, and I wish you all a happy day. ”
"Hey, bro, what did you get today?"
Robert asked Liu Zijin with great interest, and Liu Zijin was just about to take out something from the carry-on space to prevaricate when he saw the nun coming over.
"Hello, stranger, I'm Sister Carlisle here. May I ask who you are?"
"I'm Liu Zijin, and I just came to Fuxiao City yesterday. ”
"Oh...... So it is, I have come because I have found that you are not covered by the gifts of the Lord. But now I understand why, don't worry, you have just come, and in twelve days at most, the glory of the Lord will surely be given to you. ”
"Doesn't the Lord approve of me, a newcomer?"
"The Lord created every human being, but only the people here have a special love. He doesn't have time to look at you yet. ”
"That's right...... Then I will take your good words. ”
"Since it's your first time, do you want to come to the church?"
"Okay. ”
"Then please come with me. ”
Liu Zijin turned his head to look at Robert, who was eager to try the gold and silver treasures in his hand, and said with a smile: "You go do what you want to do first, I'll go inside and have a tour, and in thirty minutes, we will meet at Sbiro Restaurant." ”
"Thanks, buddy. ”
As he spoke, Robert disappeared with a puff of smoke. Liu Zijin smiled and followed Carlisle, who was smiling and waiting for him not far ahead.
Inside the church, there are two rows of tall stone pillars, which are proud, and the stars and lights hang under the continuous triangular dome, like a bright night sky. Under the night sky were two rows of benches, and they sat quietly, like quiet watchmen. What are they watching? of course their great goddess.
Liu Zijin stared at the statue of the goddess in front of her, like all goddess statues, the goddess had a loving expression on her face, looking at the suffering beings with pity. It's just that this statue of the goddess deliberately painted the eyes of the goddess black and shiny, as if to imply something.
"We don't know the specific form of the goddess, and we can only look for answers in the book of Revelation. And everywhere in the book of Revelation it is implied that the goddess has a pair of dark eyes. Her eyes pierce the darkness and bring light to all. ”
Carlisle explained quietly.
"Seeing the scene just now, I thought you could communicate with the goddess. ”
"It would be the privilege of my life to listen to the Lord's teachings, but the Lord has no intention of communicating with me at the moment, and this is the function of the kara and hymns that we have handed down. ”
"I see, then why can you be sure that I will receive the Lord's gift in twelve days? ”
"This is true of everyone here, and the Lord never forgets a person for more than twelve days. ”
"I see. Is there any other special story here?"
Carlisle smiled and shook his head, "If you want to hear the Lord's miracles, I'd be happy to come for you." But if you want to hear something interesting, something special, I can't do anything about it. ”
"I thought you would tell me the story of the goddess. ”
"The Lord doesn't want us to be fanatics, and those who honor her will always honor her, and so do you. After that, I will tell you about the signs of the Lord. ”
"What a benevolent goddess. ”
"Yes. ”
Carlisle squinted and smiled slightly.
Liu Zijin waved his hand and said goodbye: "I still have an appointment with a friend, so I won't bother much, if I have the opportunity, I'll see you in twelve days." ”
"Goodbye. ”
After walking out of the church, he looked back again, the black church, the red hydrangea, and the dark and shining eyes of the goddess. There are obviously a lot of interesting stories hidden in it, waiting to be discovered one by one. Liu Zijin's eyes lit up, he thought of a lot of things, and couldn't help laughing happily.
That's one of the greatest joys of exploring the unknown, and now put those doubts away and go see what that famous Spyro restaurant is.
Liu Zijin walked across the street and easily saw Spyro Restaurant. Most of the buildings in the city are clean and elegant, but this Spyro restaurant is a brown square building, it is a little dirty and dim on the surface, and the windows are hung with thick curtains, and only a glimpse of the interior can be seen.
It's clearly not a very impressive restaurant, and one might even suspect that it will serve rotten food and greasy cutlery from centuries ago. However, since Medea recommended it, Liu Zijin still pushed open the door with anticipation, and what greeted her was a flickering kerosene lamp.
With the sound of him opening the door, a faint but piercing rattle was heard. The waiter immediately greeted him, and there was a tiredness on his face, but he still showed a smile, and a row of white teeth shone brightly.
"Hello, how many people may I have?"
"Two. ”
"Okay, please come with me. ”
Liu Zijin followed the waiter, casually looking at the diners on both sides, they were really as happy as ever, and they were only happy when they chatted together, without complaining.
"Are you here for the first time?"
"Yes. ”
"Okay, then this way, please. ”
The waiter did not take Liu Zijin to the spare table, but came to a small foyer. Only a high-hanging kerosene lamp in the foyer provides a little dimness, and this dim atmosphere reminds Liu Zijin of the coffin-themed restaurant she used to eat. The waiter led Liu Zijin to sit down and left quietly, and the door he brought refused the last ray of light.
Liu Zijin noticed that the waiter didn't bring the menu at all, and he didn't ask what he wanted to eat.
"Is food the same for all...... I'm a picky eater......"
He muttered to himself, all the while quietly looking across the table. His eyes quickly adjusted to the darkness and saw more clearly than the average person, and he realized that what he had been staring at was a large floor-to-ceiling mirror.
"What kind of atmosphere is this trying to create, do you want to talk to your heart?"
He thought casually, and at the same time began to secretly look forward to the dishes that would be served.
After a while, the door opened again, and he thought it was Robert who had come looking for him, only to find that it was the waiter.
"Hello, guest, we happen to have a signature dish in our store today, do you also need one?"
"Of course. ”
"Okay, please wait. ”
The waiter turned around and was about to cover the door, but Liu Zijin stopped him: "Please wait a minute, I still have a companion, his name is Robert." ”
"Okay, I got it. ”
Liu Zijin waited quietly in the dark, and suddenly, he heard something special, and those movements came from the kitchen. In the chef's neat chopping sound, there were a few crisp sounds, and this crisp sound was very familiar to Liu Zijin. Liu Zijin suddenly smiled: "It's fun now, should I go over and have a look now, or do I see what the dishes are like first?"
"Just look at the food, if I'm wrong, it's not good to be charged with trespassing in the kitchen. ”
"You can't be wrong, though. ”
Click, click, he always hears this when his sword cuts through the bones of his enemies.
