(Say two chapters today, two chapters today)

"My lord, Longinus is missing."

"I see."

After retiring from his lieutenant, Pontius Pilate pushed open the door and looked at his wife, Procula.

At this moment, Procula's face still had tear stains, and the loss of his beloved son made him painful, and when she saw Pilate come in, she first raised her eyelids, took a deep breath, and asked, "How is it?" ”

"He said that Perat was a sinless man, and that he was now enjoying happiness in the kingdom of heaven."

Pilate walked up to Madame's side, took Procula into his arms, gently stroked her hair, and said in as gentle a tone as possible: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." ”

"You damn it! I said it all at the beginning, don't put him to death, don't! Why do you want to put him to death! ”

Procula broke free of Pilate's embrace and wanted to taunt her husband, but she couldn't say anything when she looked at her husband's very haggard face.

She knew that her husband's position was no different from roasting on the fire every day.

This region is too chaotic, almost every day there will be big and small problems, one is not well handled, it will turn into a bloody ethnic conflict, seriously disrupting the law and order of the region, and the divided king Herod is that virtue......

Pilate had to respect the traditions of the locals while preserving the dignity of the Roman Empire...... It's hard to think about.

I remember that when I first came to this place, because I wanted to build an aqueduct, I used the funds to repair the Jewish Temple, and the Jews quit doing it, and it ended in bloodshed...... Don't these people know that the canal is being built for everyone's good?

Procula was helpless, since her husband became the governor of the place, the couple had not enjoyed the life of a nobleman for a long time.

The slave gladiators raised at home are useless, and the fat and strong ones are raised one by one......

She blamed her husband for his wrongdoing, but she didn't know how to speak.

The saint had returned, but not her son.

And now, her husband is going to hunt down the devil...... Is the devil that easy to catch?

She wanted to comfort her husband, but the death of her son made it difficult for her to speak, and for a moment the air was depressed and dreary.

After a long time, Pilate broke the silence: "Madame, where do you say, where will this devil be?" I sent troops to see the city gates, the slums, and the sewers, and you have always been smart, and you say, where do you think he will be? ”

Procula thought for a moment and said, "Look at that candlestick. ”

"Candlesticks, what's wrong with candlesticks?"

"The flame illuminates the room, but it does not illuminate the shadow at the foot of the candelabra."

"I see, Jewish Temple......" Pilate stood up, pondered for a moment, and asked, "What shall I say to those Jews?" ”

"It's better to be the will of the One, if there is no will, you don't care, it's the land of the Jews themselves, and they haven't settled the account about the burning of the temple last night."

"yes, haha, what Lebanese cedar do these bastards want, where can I get them for them." Pilate smiled: "What kind of bullshit building materials...... Forget it, let them figure it out for themselves. ”

After laughing a few times, he sighed and said, "But this matter can't be ignored, forget it, I'll go for a trip." ”

"What is the Messiah doing now?" Procula asked.

"He's ...... He practiced medicine and treated people free of charge, while his disciples served as missionaries under the protection of soldiers. Pilate thought for a moment, then said, "Unexpectedly, the Jews who had kept saying that they were going to put him to death a few days ago are now his followers. ”

"After all, it is the Messiah, whom the Father sent to save the world." Procula smiled and said, "You can't stop him. ”

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid." Pilate smiled bitterly and sighed: "I didn't expect that my activities in Rome also need the approval of others, and I am the governor of the province." ”

"This is also the world created by God." Procula said, "Assisting the Messiah is the innate mission of those of us who are created. ”

"Look at the way you look, you're like a fanatic."

"He's all resurrected, don't you believe it?"

"I don't want to talk to you about religion, I owe only allegiance to Emperor Tiberius." Pilate smiled and walked out the door.

After Pilate left, Procula's face sank.

When the lights are dark, it's not about the Jewish Temple, it's about ...... This room.

After Pilate left, Geng Lin's petite figure stepped out from between Procula's hair, like an elf.

Geng Lin then jumped from Procula's shoulder, slowly growing larger as she jumped, and landed steadily on the ground, without making a single sound with the help of the anti-gravity core.

"Your abilities are truly amazing." Procula sighed, then asked, "I really should have asked my husband to kill you." ”

"In that case, a lot of people will die." Geng Lin said with his eyes as usual.

Looking at Geng Lin's cold expression, Procula did not doubt the truth of this sentence at all, she thought for a moment and asked, "Can you really resurrect my son Piro?" ”

"Your son's neural blueprint is in hand, we have nanobots and professional medical equipment, we can transfer Perlo's consciousness at any time, as long as you provide a body that can match, preferably a child, their nervous system is not yet perfect, and it is not difficult to guide the transformation."

Although Geng Lin's descriptions were very professional, and many of the terms were out of the vocabulary of the local language, making the translation difficult, the clever Procula understood what Geng Lin meant.

She was able to transfer her son's mind and resurrect it as long as ......

Just sacrifice yourself a healthy child.

This is not difficult for her.

The nobles of Rome kept slaves in captivity, and she only had to find one of the slaves' heirs.

But this kind of behavior made her instinctively disgusted.

She had done good all her life and had done nothing evil, and now she was going to sacrifice a strange child for the sake of her son...... This is evil and unrighteousness.

To be reviled by everyone!

If she had agreed, she would have felt no different from the crucified scoundrels.

But...... The hidden desire in her heart told her to agree to it.

Promised her.

His own son will be resurrected!

Procula closed her eyes, she was extremely ashamed of her thoughts, and she couldn't help but think of the villains who had been crucified, and she felt that she should also carry the cross and walk all the way down the street to the execution ground.

But after a while, the desire in her heart grew bigger and bigger, like a flood that burst the embankment, and broke her reason.

"Is this the price of walking with the devil?"

At the moment, she didn't care what would happen to her when she died, whether she would suffer forever in hell or if it would dissipate like smoke, she just wanted her son to come back.

Perro, the only son of her and Pilate, has been sick since childhood, has been bedridden all the year round, has never enjoyed the sun, the grass, and has never smiled happily in his life.

And the moment Jesus saved her son, she saw that knowing smile on his son's face for the first time, which she will never forget.

She really, really wants her child to live again, to have a normal childhood, to be able to play happily, to breathe fresh air, to be able to come over by herself and give her a hug.

She is willing to sacrifice everything she has for this.

"This is the price of the resurrection." Geng Lin said: "What about your decision? ”

"Well, I'm willing to resurrect my child, I'm willing." Procula said, "I'll get ten children together as soon as I can, and give them to you, and you just need to give me one back." ”

"We don't want children, we want your husband." Geng Lin said: "You misunderstood, we are not devils. ”

"You want my husband?"

"Yes, I want you to think of ways to influence his choices."

"What to choose? Are you allegiance to the devil? ”

"No, let him choose to remain loyal to Rome, 'Jesus' is stripping him of control over the army, Pilate will not tolerate this, he will consult with you......"

Geng Lin didn't finish speaking, and Procula understood what she meant.

"I see, I'm not going to let my husband choose the Messiah......" Prokula's voice became extremely difficult, "I will." ”

"Okay." Geng Lin nodded, and then received Ning Yuan's notice, and turned his head to repeat Ning Yuan's words to Procula: "I know what you are thinking, you are afraid that your husband will not be redeemed, rest assured, he will not be redeemed in the first place." ”

"What did you say?"

"He is the one who judged the Son of God! Do you think he'll end well? Geng Lin said: "God will not tolerate him, the Jews will not tolerate him, and the followers of Jesus will not tolerate him. ”

Procula's eyes widened in shock.

"Maybe the emperor can protect him, but ...... How many years do you think Tiberius will live? Geng Lin asked expressionlessly: "Do you think that after changing the emperor, you will still take care of your Pilate family?" After you die, your husband's reputation will be set on the pillar of shame for a long time. ”

This is the case in real history, when Pilate caused a revolt against the Samaritans because he had seriously hurt their feelings of faith.

After being suppressed, the Samaritans complained to the Syrian consul Viterius, accusing Pilate of his atrocities.

Emperor Tiberius feared the unstable situation in the East, so he summoned Pilate and asked him to go to Rome to explain, which could be regarded as a kind of protection.

But soon Tiberius died. The new emperor, Caligula, in order to stabilize the situation, pacified the Jews and Samaritans. Pilate was sentenced to exile in Gaul. In the 41st year of the Lord's calendar, Pilate burned himself to death in present-day Vienna under the ashes of all hopes, and ended up like the king of the Emperor.

When people die, there is no fame left.

Procula took a few deep breaths, and the thoughts of mediation in her heart vanished.

She wanted to tell the Messiah about it, but now, she didn't dare to.

"Once you've found the child, use this to contact me." Geng Lin handed a tablet to Procula's hand and said, "If you click this, you can contact me, click on this to watch dramas or something, and click on this to play mini-games...... If you really don't know how to use it, you can click on this, this is the use of help, I have translated it......"

After introducing the use of the terminal, Geng Lin said to Prokula, "You...... Shape up or ship out. ”

With that, she vanished from view, leaving Procula alone stunned.

"Watching dramas...... What is it? ”

……

In the streets, the Jews held a grand rally to celebrate the coming of the 'Messiah'.

Thousands of Jews gathered in the center of the square to listen to the sermon of 'Jesus'.

In the Jewish faith, there has always been a Messiah, and Jewish legend says that a Messiah will come out of the crowd and help the Jews restore their kingdom.

And now, after Yomilton showed the power of God, their teachings have quietly changed.

They will restore their kingdom, but this kingdom is not in the mortal world.

At this moment, 'Jesus' is sitting on the statue of the fallen emperor, constantly proclaiming the words of God's love for the world, and his disciples are sorting out the order, recording the words of Jesus and sorting out the books.

Some Roman soldiers surrounded the disciples as if they were their men.

Pilate was very upset by this, but even more upset was that Jesus was sitting on top of the statue of the emperor!

He clenched his fists, the idea of the monarchy over theocracy in the Roman tradition spread in his mind, and he wanted to take this saint down from the statue, but because of the divine power of Jesus, the believers on the earth, now he could only endure it.

No way, the situation is stronger than people.

He pushed his men through the crowd and walked over to Yumilton's side, saying, "This ...... Messiah, I have something to tell. ”

"Oh, Pilate, what's the matter?"

Pilate gritted his teeth, he had never been so low-voiced except for the House and the Emperor.

"I suspect that the devil may be lurking in the Jewish temple, and I hope you will ......"

Before he could finish his sentence, the Jews below became furious.

"you! Why don't you say the devil is at your bedside? ”

"That's God's palace on earth!"

"The Lebanese cedar in there was planted by my god himself!"

"Are you looking for death!"

The overwhelming invective swept across the square, causing Pilate to regret the pain of his back molars.

I should really listen to my wife, why do I have to wade into this troubled water, if it weren't for ...... In order to give you grandsons an explanation, Lao Tzu's idle eggs hurt!

However, he had no hope of searching for the temple.

It is impossible for the Jews to agree to this.

In this way, as long as the devil cannot be found, the blame can be put on these Jews, and he can be regarded as having an explanation on the emperor's side.

"The fireworks of candlesticks do not illuminate the shadows under the candlesticks." Pilate explained aloud: "Don't you understand this? Today, my army has turned the city upside down, and it is your temple! ”

"Fuck you! It is you, Pilate, who are incompetent, that depend on us! ”

"We are God's chosen people! How can the devil be hidden! ”

"You're crazy!"

“……”

Pilate shook his head helplessly, he really wanted the army to gather a phalanx and send these grandsons into the kingdom of heaven, but for the sake of stability, he couldn't do so.

Depend on!

Jesus doesn't sit here, do they dare to shout like that?

Pilate's face was not very good, but he was a little happy in his heart.

Say no.

After refusing, you can go back to sleep peacefully!

After hearing Pilate's words, Jumilton on the statue also pondered.

He knew that there was an automatic turret in the temple, and if he lured people there, he would use some small means...... Definitely going to kill a lot of people.

Dead people, bloodshed, will make the faith stronger.

At the moment, this group of believers is still divided, and if they realize the strength of the external enemy, they will definitely be able to unite them.

There are many benefits to searching the temple.

But before that, there's one more thing to do.

Jumilton held out his hand and motioned for everyone to stop arguing.

"My father condemned me to come here to redeem the world, to put an end to strife, and now there is indeed a demon lurking in the world, and since Pilate suspected that the temple was not clean, why don't you open the door and prove it?"

"There is God's ......"

"I know that it is the Father's earthly palace, but it is also only on the earth, and there is a possibility that it will be defiled by the devil! Do you not want your father's house to be defiled. Yu Milton said.

After these words, everyone present fell silent.

If this was said by someone else, they would definitely be able to spray this person without even knowing his mother, but this is said by the Messiah......

The High Priest stepped out of the crowd and bowed respectfully to Yomilton.

"Messiah, we should obey your will, but can we ...... it ourselves?"

"If you really encounter the devil, can you fight it?" Yumilton laughed and said, "They are all professional soldiers and believers in God, so what are you worried about?" ”

"I ......" the high priest wanted to say something, but remembering the scene of last night, he lowered his head again: "We should obey the will of the Messiah." ”

"But I know what you're worried about, so ......," said Yomilton, pointing to his disciples, "Peter, John, you two supervise the soldiers in searching the temple and make sure that the soldiers follow the Jewish rites, Pilate, how about that?" ”

Pilate's eyelids twitched.

It's ruthless.

This is to ask for power.

It is called supervision...... Isn't it just for the right to manage!

As long as he opened this mouth, Jesus would have an interface to interfere in the operation of the army in the future...... But can you not give it yourself?

The words have been said by themselves, can they still be taken back?

But...... This sentence of Jumilton made Pilate extremely vigilant.

It seems that this saint ...... It's not just for missionaries.

"Okay." Pilate nodded in agreement and began to gather his soldiers.

At the same time, Ning Yuan, who was hiding in the crowd, also felt something strange, and the phalanges in his body twitched wildly.

In a trance, he seemed to see that heavenly kingdom again.
