Chapter 62: Licking
Enter Jerusalem, which is a very different world.
Wandering merchants, travelers, believers who chant words, people in uniforms with iron rods in their hands, children running around;
The shouting, the shouting, the begging, the prayer, the weeping, the chanting, the total voice merged into Jerusalem.
There were always a few men in pure black cloaks kneeling on the ground, looking in a certain direction with mad sincerity in their eyes.
No, it's not just them, everyone here, their eyes, more or less crazy.
If you look them in the eye, you see a completely different world, a world that you have only seen in news reports and Twitter photos before, but here, you can smell them from the inside out, the smell of faith that runs through the blood.
Himeno felt a certain creepiness from this scene, and couldn't help but find a topic to talk to the people around him, "Do you know what the three major religions of the world are?" ”
Hayakawa Aki said, "Demon Cult, Devil Cult, and Ancient God Cult. ”
"Yes, I don't know the specific teachings of them, but I've only heard a little." Himeno pointed his finger to his temple and recalled:
"The Demon Cult worships demons, and feels that demons are the creators of this world, the original masters of this world, and human beings appeared after demons, and demons eat people because humans have caused great damage to the environment of the earth, the home of demons."
"The Devil's Cult believes that there is a devil in the world, who is actually the dark side of God, and he created demons to punish mankind."
"The Cult of the Old Gods says that the whole world is made of an ancient god, the demon is the evil side of the ancient gods, the human being is the good side of the ancient gods, the good will fight with the evil, and when both the demon and the human race are extinct, the old gods will awaken."
Gu Zero finally rolled his eyes when he heard this, "Have you heard of the theory of relativity?" ”
The crowd shook their heads.
"What about black holes? What about the Big Bang? ”
The crowd shook their heads.
"It's over! This world develops pure theology without science! ”
The crowd didn't understand what Zero was talking about.
Thinking about it, how can there be such a bug in the scientific world, and there will be demons that can circulate indefinitely, which obviously violates the law of conservation of mass.
What is the world made of?
"Our mission this time is to investigate the causes of death of 100 demon hunters, now let's go to the temple first."
I really want to complain, these 100 demon hunters are Machima, you pinched them to death.
Aren't you tired of pinching a hundred pieces of sushi?
……
The Temple of Jerusalem
"O Lord! What should I do to trust you? ”
"Lick my feet."
"Is it okay to just lick your feet?"
"Lick it carefully and cleanly."
At this time, on the highest chair in the temple, an old man with a kind face was sitting.
He had shoulder-length flowing white hair, a white beard on his chin, and wore a tattered outfit that looked like a sackcloth bag, and he held an old yellow book with an old yellow cover in his arms.
His eyes were filled with tears, and two clear tears flowed forever on his face, and on his face, which had not been washed for many years, two lines of cool roads were forcedly brushed.
His feet lay naked on the ground, stained with dust.
Not only that, but it looked like the feet hadn't been washed in years, and the sour smell could be smelled from ten meters away.
In front of him knelt a female believer, dressed in a pure black cloak and long braids, with a meek and serene face, with soft features, who looked at the feet of 'God' and felt that the door of heaven was open in front of her.
Her hands gently lifted the feet of God, the toenails on them were very long, I don't know how much dirt was hidden inside, they turned black and yellow, and the sour smell that rushed into the tip of her nose and scented her head made her feel melodious happiness.
That's what heaven tastes like!
She kissed lightly on the instep of God's feet, her lips touching the cold hardness, and her heart was filled with satisfaction.
These are God's feet!
She stuck out her tongue and licked it little by little, sincerely.
The other believers also showed longing glances, as if not letting them lick their feet would make their souls itch.
'God' understood what they meant and stretched his other foot forward.
Another believer threw himself up, picked up God's feet and licked them.
'God' glanced at the 'Bible' open in his arms while enjoying the believer's foot licking.
On the original blank old yellow paper, a piece of bright red handwriting appeared:
【God and Demon, do you feel happy like this?】 】
"Happy!"
God Demon said.
At the same time, his tears flowed non-stop, from the moment he was born, they were weeping, and they would flow to the end of the world.
His followers thought that he was happy to be licked, and licked it even more attentively.
Six dots appear on the blank paper of the Bible:
【……】
Slowly, the line disappeared, and another sentence appeared, particularly bright red, and the font was particularly thick, as if the writer was very excited:
[I shouldn't have told you the truth in the first place. 】
God and the devil ignored the Bible's confession, and it's too late to say anything.
Just as the God Demon was indulging in being licked, a female believer ran in from outside in a panic,
"Oh God! The devils are coming again? ”
"What? The devils who insulted God are coming again? ”
Do they want to charge admission to God as an attraction? Sin deserves death! ”
"How dare they come! My God! Grant them heavenly punishment! ”
The believers began to talk one after another, and even though they were emotional, the voice was soft, as if they were afraid that a loud voice would disturb God.
And the heavenly punishment in their mouths undoubtedly refers to the sudden disappearance of a hundred demon hunters in Jerusalem before.
But God the devil knows that they did not disappear suddenly.
Instead, it was directly run over.
Human beings are really evil, they can do anything for their own selfish desires.
God said, "Heaven will punish you without me." You are the heavenly punishment of the devil. ”
The believers were stunned for a moment, and then they heard that God had given them the means to enter heaven.
……
As you get from the outskirts of Jerusalem to the temple in the center, the closer you get to the temple, the more people kneel.
Their mouths, eyes, ears, noses are clogged with their own beliefs.
When they arrived near the door of the temple, everyone was already very careful in their steps.
Because if they accidentally step on the finger of one of the believers, they will scream and then shout with a look of emotion:
"Ahh This is the training God has given me! ”
Machima suddenly said, "Angel, can you sense the God Demon?" Is he in there? ”
The angel demon looked confused when he heard this, but he still did what Machima said, 'sensed' for a while, and said, "I can't sense the God Demon, although I am an Angel Demon, I have no connection with the God Demon." ”
Machima doesn't speak.
Descending to the ancient zero, Machima brought the angel demon to want to know if there is a special connection between the angel demon and the god demon.
Everyone stands in front of the temple, and the quaint and towering stone pillars seem to stand with the weight of history, typical Athenian-style buildings.
Himeno touched her arms uncomfortably, and for some reason, she felt a little cold, and she unconsciously turned her head.
Behind them, every believer on their knees raised their heads and looked at them with extremely cold eyes.
The air, which had been murmuring with prayers, suddenly fell silent.
Even the passing wind crept up, not daring to blow boldly.
There was a chattering sound, and the temple door was pushed open from the inside.
When the people saw it, the back of the door was full of believers, and they were like sesame seeds in it.
A pair of eyes seemed to freeze, staring at them without blinking.
Standing in a row of believers closest to the door, they said in unison:
"Devil, we are here for you, if you go one step further, there will be heavenly punishment!"
