"I want to save someone."

He looked at me in surprise, with a slight teasing on the corner of his mouth, "I can't see that you are still kind-hearted." ”

"But you might as well give up." His face was calm, but his words revealed a little sadness, "You and I are just two wandering spirits, how can I interfere in this world." ”

"One person, I just want to save one person! Is there really no way? ”

Thinking of the person who was sick when I saw him again yesterday, with a pale face and vain steps, I only felt very confused in my heart, and asked eagerly.

He frowned and looked at me, with a little pity in his eyes, a little mockery, "Alone? What a ridiculous thing you say! You know what is going on in the outside world, and if you save only one person, the next day that person will be arrested and beaten to death by the sick man. If you want to save, you will save the world; If you can't do it, just watch it obediently! ”

His words were so cold that they made my heart burn.

I clenched my fists, trembling and wishing I could punch him.

After a while, I let go of my fist.

He's sensible, he's right.

It's me who is impulsive.

Wenshi, how can I save you......

"Why, you've always been so cold, don't you have someone you care about!"

Of course, this is not reasonable, and from the perspective of today, I was not capable at that time, but I wanted to do what only capable people can do, which is of course impossible.

That's why they are unwilling, angry, and angry with others.

"Is there one?" He raised an eyebrow and looked at me: "I care about you, my friend, you and I are one and the same, we are brothers." ”

"I mean somebody else!"

His eyes changed as he looked at me, with sympathy, with indifference, with mockery, like an adult in the neighborhood, looking at a child who did not belong to him!

"I still care about Wenchi, and I've always cared about when he will die for sure." He looked at me with a crazy smile.

I've only seen this kind of smile on Wen Mantra's face, and it was a smile that mixed extreme longing and extreme fear when he changed himself into a demon beast heart and tried to seize the power of a demon beast.

I looked at him: I was looking at a madman.

But he obviously didn't care what I thought of him, and just said to himself: "I also care about the Wen family, I want to know when the world will think that the Wen family is to blame for this plague, I want to know when they will fight the Wen family." ”

"You don't know what I'm asking." Looking at his crazy appearance, I calmed down instead.

"Aren't you better than anyone else?" He quickly took a few steps forward, pinched my collar with both hands, and stared at me with his eyes as if they were about to protrude, "The people I care about have never been in this world!" ”

……

A new sect has arisen in the outside world, called the Neotheistic Cult.

They preach that there is no cure for the demonic disease, and that people should accept it and live with it.

They believe that the so-called holy demon disease is just an ordinary test given by God to sentient beings, and the essence of this test is no different from the flood that broke the city in ancient times, and the occasional demon that disturbed the people.

It's insane!

"That fellow Daoist thinks, what is normal in this world now?" In the dream, the Supreme Bishop of the Protestant Church smiled softly and asked me softly.

I don't understand, and it's because I don't understand that I'm here to see him.

But, instinctively, I felt that the path they were taking was not the right one.

But what is needed in troubled times is really the so-called right?

Maybe in this world, only a madman can lead the world?

He didn't seem to expect me to answer, and said to himself, "The Holy Demon Disease is indeed a terrible disease, it spreads rapidly and is incurable, and most of the people who suffer from it fall into despair and become radical and insane. ”

"I once passed by a small mountain village, which is not big, but it looks like it can accommodate hundreds of families."

As he recalled, the scene in his dream quickly changed into a ruined village.

I pushed open the door of a house and saw a man in the prime of life lying on the ground, covered in blood.

He held a knife in one hand and a wooden stick in his mouth, and he stabbed himself in the heart.

Commit suicide?!

People will not only be killed by others, will not only be born, old, sick and die, but will also seek death themselves?

Why did he give up his life?

Is it because of the Holy Demon Disease? Because we're here......

I felt something explode in my head, and it made me groggy and unsteady on my feet.

An emaciated black dog tore at the man's corpse, causing half of his body to be a blur of flesh and blood.

Is this a wild dog, or is it a domestic dog that is unfed and hungry?

I opened another door, and I saw a white silk horse hanging from the beam, I saw a stool that had been kicked aside, and I saw a plain woman with her feet dangling in the air.

It was another room, and I saw two men of little different ages writhing together, and they gave each other a fatal stab.

As the doors were opened, my heart became more and more numb.

Gradually, when I saw a corpse again, I no longer had any sympathy, but a disgust from the bottom of my heart.

It's really, disgusting.

"This is the Holy Demon Disease, this is the human heart." The bishop came to me and spoke slowly.

"It's incurable, it's more and more painful, and it can hurt those around you, so much so that some people commit suicide as soon as they get sick."

Yes, if you can't see hope, you will suffer if you live, and you will kill others, so why die?

Perhaps we who do everything we can to hang the lives of the sick and let them continue to suffer are the truly selfish ones!

"It's so terrifying that everybody is so frightened that when a new patient comes around him, the new patient hates the original one and thinks that someone else has harmed him, and kills the poor person who is unlucky enough to be sick."

"Human beings are not inferior animals that can survive with material materials such as eating, drinking, sheltering, and transportation. On the contrary, they must first want to live before they can live. ”

"And when people really want to live, you find that people are actually very tenacious. As long as you want to live, you will see people in the midst of famine digging grass roots and gnawing tree bark. As long as you are still alive, you will see people in the flood desperately cling to what they can hold onto, doing everything in their power to ensure that they are not swept away. As long as you are still alive, you will see the unfortunate landslide and a broken leg crawling all the way with the stump dragged along the way, and finally was rescued by someone......"

"As long as you want to live, you can always think of any way to live, even today when the Holy Demon Disease is raging."

It makes people want to live! This is the doctrine of the Neotheon, the faith.

They want to be light, they want to be hope, they want to restore order, they want to settle the twisted hearts of people in this troubled world.

Is this possible......

I really did it for them!

"People like thrills, so they go out on adventures, crave chaos, and cause killing. But more often than not, people like stability, and stimulation is far more consuming than stability. Therefore, when the war lasts for a long time, people will yearn for peace. But the war has stopped for too long, and the energy of the people is too strong, and the war will be waged again. ”

"So it's not a miracle, it's just a cycle of human nature."

Are you so sure you're going to make it?

"Absolutely." He chuckled, "Because I have no selfish motives, and I will definitely die." ”

"I'm no different from everybody else, and I'm able to give people what they need right now, so people will follow me. And as long as I suffer from the Demonic Disease and die with others, people will not think of me as a conspirator, and they will not turn their backs on me. In addition, everything I do is for the sake of the world, so as long as I live long enough, even if I die, people will still follow the order I have established. ”

"As long as the troubled times continue, as long as the order I have established can still guarantee a pure land, it will never disappear."

"This is the Neotheistic Church, the order I want to create."

Because of the Holy Demon Disease, people no longer grow food; Because of the Holy Demon Disease, people no longer make food into meals; Because of the Holy Demon Disease, people "learned" to burn, kill, and loot, and they never tired of it.

But food will not be produced out of thin air, if it continues like this, the holy demon disease will not destroy the human race, and the human race itself will also destroy itself!

Under natural disasters, man-made disasters often follow.

Man-made disasters often follow......

But under great difficulties, human nature often shines to the extreme.

People enjoy the thrill of destroying everything, but they also want a stable and orderly life.

All they need is a guide.

And now the facilitators have stepped forward!

There are so many people in this world who are afraid of death, so he can guide them.

And because people need material means to live, the first thing the archbishop did was to resume production: he scattered all his wealth in exchange for food to distribute to the people, and verbally agreed with them that they would come tomorrow to help with production.

Oh, you don't want to come? Then of course you are not my friend, and if you are not a like-minded friend with me, you will not be able to get food from me!

In this way, he relied on food to guide the people step by step and gradually establish order.

At the same time, he gradually tells people two obvious facts:

1. The Holy Demon Disease is not so terrible, it will not kill us immediately.

2. The Holy Demon Disease is so terrible, so it is useless for us to fear it.

"No catastrophe can completely bring down humanity!" He announced loudly to the congregation.

It's like, this is exactly the same as what Li Wenshu meant to me.

I floated high in the air and looked down, watching the crowd shout along with his words. It seems that by doing so, they can forget their fears for a while.

No, they did forget their fears for a while, they forgot about the Holy Demon Disease, they forgot that they were in troubled times.

They shouted with a loud voice, and their eyes lit up.

Oh, the Holy Demon Disease is the same as the ancient wildfires, and the same as the occasional flood.

Believe it all, what a group of naïve people.

"It may take the lives of a few people, but it can't destroy human beings, and it will never kill our will to survive!"

It's really good to be naïve, I want to shout along.

But it's useless, the holy demon disease still exists, and the sick people will still die.

Finally, he faced the death of his congregation.

Contrary to what I expected, he didn't face the trepidation.

I saw the people of the Church of the New God gather together their dead companions and light a fire.

The flames raged, and one by one they sat cross-legged around the flames, all of them closing their eyes, their hands folded, and silent.

They were praying for their dead companions for their well-being in the next life.

Everyone knows that everyone dies.

However, when they feel that their companions around them are praying with them, and may their friends who have unfortunately left them happy in the next life, it seems that even death is no longer terrible, and it seems that even death can be faced calmly.

Li Wenshu told me before that most people are afraid of death, but they are not afraid of death itself. What they fear is the unknown, loneliness, regret, and forgetfulness!

So when all these things he enumerated were no longer terrible to the people of the New Gods, was death really no longer terrifying, as he said, but merely life became another form?

……

I came to the man's dream again, and he smiled and praised me: "Daoist friends have unique ideas, and they are really strange people!" ”

"Death is not the end of life, but just another form of life. Yes, there is life and death, and death is not another form of life. ”

"Thank you Daoist friends for informing me of these principles, and I will inform the congregations of this matter tomorrow."

He finally asked me about my identity.

He confessed that when he first talked to me, he only thought it was an ordinary dream, and he thought that he was not firm enough, so he dreamed that he was convincing others, and he thought that it was just the brain that made him convince himself again, to make him more determined.

He also wondered if he had been too tired lately and had too many things to deal with, so he thought about it day and night.

But now, convinced that I was a different person from him, he began to ask me about who I was, what I thought of him in founding the New Church, and where he didn't see him doing enough.

What an out-and-out good man.

But you're mistaken, I'm not the person you think I'm the person I think I'm just a ......

"There are still regrets about the world, and it's just a wandering soul that is stagnant."
