Chapter 568: The Altar and the Woman in Red
In the face of the aggressiveness of Gao Jingfei and others, Stefan Flick could only suppress the fear and anger in his heart, and his inward-looking attitude made it easy to see.
Among the onlookers were not only ordinary people, but also many people of the three religions and nine ranks, as well as some intellectuals and wealthy people with status, and most of them could see the weakness of the church.
Behind the foreign priests, there is a businessman who is more pious in faith, or who is good at doing business with the back of foreigners, and at this time he stood up to speak to Father Fu.
"Are you here to talk about the scriptures in church? If you want to incite the crowd to storm the church, you should consider the attitude of foreigners and officials from Hunan Province! ”
The threat between this person's words was obvious, and there were a few wealthy businessmen dressed similarly on the side who regretted not speaking first. In their opinion, this can undoubtedly win the favor of foreign priests and foreign adults.
Gao Jingfei was disdainful of the threat of this kind of two devils, and with a wave of his hand, a loud slap sounded, and the middle-aged businessman who stood up suddenly flew up and turned around three times before falling to the ground, and when he covered his face and sat up and couldn't speak with a look of shame and anger, half of his face was already swollen like a pig's head.
This slap in the air immediately scared off several merchants who wanted to speak, as well as the church-raised dogs who wanted to come up and teach these people a lesson.
Gao Jingfei just threw down a sentence disdainfully: "I'm talking to your master, and it's not the dog's turn to interject." ”
These words were simply heart-wrenching, causing the crowd of onlookers to burst into laughter.
The few wealthy businessmen and believers present, whether they were truly pious or falsely pious, were the kind of people who relied on the power of foreigners, foxes, and tigers, and made their fortunes by selling their own national interests.
In fact, there are many businessmen who do business with foreigners in this era, and it is understandable that some people choose to use the identity of foreigners in order not to be exploited by the government, but those like them who have sat crookedly and are really willing to be dogs to foreigners in their hearts are really disgusting national scum.
In fact, since ancient times, Middle-earth merchants have paid attention to Confucian benevolence and righteousness, and there are many profiteers, but many things must at least look at the past on the surface, after all, they must also be worthy of their clans and ancestors.
Moreover, there are indeed many Confucian merchants and benevolent merchants, and there is no shortage of patriotic businessmen who have moved their families to fight against foreign enemies in history.
So these people were humiliated in public, and they were immediately embarrassed and indignant, but they didn't dare to speak, so they could only let the surrounding crowd laugh and point.
Everyone actually despises such people in their hearts, but on weekdays, these masters all have status, if the people in the market dare to point fingers like this, they will have been beaten by domestic servants sent by others, or find a reason to throw them into the police prison for a few days to eat prison food, so if you want to come out, ordinary people will have to shed their skin if they don't die.
But now that there are Mao Daochang and those masters, there are people who have been bullied on weekdays, and they suddenly speak a lot louder as if they have the backbone.
Gao Jingfei didn't pay much attention to those profiteers, such a person with a crooked ass can no longer be called a Xia person, but a Xia traitor, if it weren't for the fact that it was not easy to do it in front of everyone, he didn't mind giving these Xia traitors a little punishment at all.
It's still the church thing that matters.
I saw him look at the foreigner priest Fu Sifan with burning eyes, and said in a cold voice:
"Are you going to tell me what is going on under this church, or are you going to let me reveal it myself?"
As soon as these words came out, Stefan Frick's face suddenly changed greatly, and cold sweat brushed down.
How does he know? How could he?
Like an ant on a hot pot in his heart, this foreign priest has lost his former calmness.
"Hu, nonsense, the church is the holy place of the Lord, it is a sacred place, how can you be allowed to slander like this?"
"Thou heretic, thou wilt thou not fear the condemnation of the Lord?"
Listening to Father Yang's stumbling rebuttal, the crowd of onlookers felt more and more that there was something really wrong with this church.
"It seems that you are toasting and not eating and drinking!"
After that, Gao Jingfei waved his hand, and the foreign priest suddenly flew out more than ten meters away as if he had been hit head-on by a car traveling at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour.
Stefan Frick felt his intestines tumble for a moment, unable to speak in pain, and could not even stand up.
A group of people in the church hurried over to help, but Gao Jingfei ignored these, and after confirming that there was no one in the church, he raised his hand and shouted:
"The wind is coming!"
Suddenly, a nameless wind swept in, destroying the tall and sturdy structure of the entire church in just a few breaths, and the masonry materials were blown away without knowing where they were blown, leaving only the bare foundations of the church.
And in the middle of this foundation there is a square underground passage with a pitch black inside.
In a dazzling audience, such a big change took place in front of them, and suddenly the crowd rang out like hot water boiling in a pot.
The art of calling the wind and rain has always been the impression of the people of Middle-earth on immortals, believing that only immortals who have attained the Tao can do this.
This is actually derived from the inherent concept of the ancient farming nation, because rainfall is an important celestial phenomenon related to grain production, so the gods worshiped since ancient times, the ancient wind god rain master, the ancient Wuyue water god dragon god and Hebo faith, down to the later dragon king and Mazu and other gods, and even the city god land, seems to have the priesthood of controlling the wind and rain weather, which is derived from the people's expectations for the wind and rain every year.
Father Frick and others, who were frightened by this gust of wind, were even more shocked when they saw this scene, especially Frick's own face changed wildly, because only he and his two henchmen in the church knew the secret, and even the two henchmen did not know the details.
This is a secret that must not be exposed, once exposed, not only will he face the fate of death without a place to be buried, but even the entire Bright Holy Court will be stained with a stain that is difficult to wash away.
Those few Protestant countries and the filial sons of light definitely don't mind continuing to suppress the power of the Holy See, once such a scandal occurs, it will definitely be a great time for them!
So out of nowhere, Stefan Frick rose up to the courage to recite the scriptures in his mouth, and with a frenzied face he was about to pounce on it and try to destroy the exposed entrance and bury the secrets below.
But how could Gao Jingfei allow this guy to cover up his crimes?
"Get out of here!"
With a shout and scolding, everyone saw that the foreign priest was swept up to the sky by an invisible force, and he couldn't get down for a long time. And the white light on his body flashed and disappeared, and it was not conspicuous in the daytime, and he was not seen by a few people.
And Gao Jingfei didn't stop moving, the masonry where the church foundation was located began to split and float in pieces against gravity, and when the structure under the foundation was emptied, the secrets under the church were completely exposed to the sun.
In the middle of the pit appeared an altar made of bluestone, and on this circular altar of stone and copper wire stood a cross, on which hung a woman in red clothes.
Outsiders don't know, but in Gao Jingfei's eyes, the means of the entire altar layout are clear at a glance, whether it is the black-red spiritual power of the woman in red as the source, or the copper wire network buried deep in the ground of the altar, and the pure white holy light flickering from the ancient scriptures engraved on it, all of this makes Gao Jingfei understand the role of this altar circle.
"What's this?"
"Isn't this the little concubine that Master Li married a few years ago in the Li Family Wine Workshop?"
"Yes, I heard that she was bullied by the eldest woman of the Li family, and she couldn't bear it and hanged herself, and her body was haunted when she stopped in the wine shop!"
"Yes, I remember right, Liu Laosan, who played the watch, told me in person that he heard a ghost crying in the Li family's wine shop on the night of the bonus's death, and then the Li family hurriedly buried the body, but how could this red corpse appear here? ……”
Suddenly, someone with good eyes in the crowd saw the appearance of the woman in red clearly, and immediately caused a burst of exclamations and discussions.
