Chapter 23: Church Assemblies
The Twilight Sect has an ancient history, and its roots can even be traced back to the Yuan of the Extinction Yuan when the Spirit Race had just arrived.
Over a long period of time, many tedious but solemn ceremonies were left behind.
For example, before entering the assembly hall, you need to meditate. Quietly remove the dust, a little simpler can wash your hands at the lobby door, and then enter a special small room to stay alone for half an hour. Most of the devout believers bathe and change their clothes at home, and then come to the meditation room to be alone.
Yu Yi followed Lin Shu's reminder, washed his hands in the so-called holy water basin, and then walked into the meditation room.
After spending half an hour in the meditation room, Yu Yi walked out of the room, feeling relieved.
Lin Shu waited early and led him into the lobby.
There were already many people in the lobby, and Lin Shu did not take Yu Yi into the crowd, but took him around to another large room.
"What are we doing here?" Yu also asked puzzled.
"You are a son of God, you need to prepare." Lin Shu said with a smile.
"Prepare what?" Yu was also a little puzzled, his identity as a god son, in the final analysis, did not have much to do with the Dusk Sect. Mainly because he may have been involved in the Great Council's god-making project.
Lin Shu smiled and said nothing, raising his hand to press a button on the wall.
Soon, a group of girls walked into the room.
The girls at the head were each holding white clothes, shoes and socks, and a mask.
"Please ask Miko-sama to disguise herself." Lin Shu said.
Yu Yi was stunned, and said reluctantly: "Do you have to?" ”
Without waiting for Lin Shu to answer, Huang Sheng's voice came from the radio in the room: "Isn't Lord Shenzi ready?" ”
Lin Shu looked at Yu Yi: "This is your first appearance in the Dusk Sect, and you can't be sloppy, which is related to whether you can gain public support in the Holy See in the future." ”
Yu Yi lowered his head and thought about it, and then he nodded: "Okay." ”
Seeing Yu Yi nodding, Lin Shu clapped his hands, and the girls stepped forward to change Yu Yi's clothes.
Soon, Yu Yi changed into a white robe, and he didn't rush to put on the black mask in his hand, but looked at himself in the mirror first.
I have to say that his long hair is matched with a robe, and his whole person looks extremely dusty.
"How do I get popular support?" Yu also asked.
"The Divine Envoy will be ready, and you should just show your face when the time comes." Lin Shu stepped forward and took the mask in Yu Yi's hand and helped Yu Yi put it on seriously.
"Alright, I'm out with Miko-sama." Lin Shu picked up a walkie-talkie and said.
After Lin Shu finished speaking, he opened another door in the room, and behind the door was a black passage.
"Lin Shu, I'm a little nervous." Yu also said.
"It's okay, I'm here." Lin Shu pulled Yu Yi into the passage.
"Now, fellow citizens, the gift of God has appeared. Our Miko-sama has also come to the base, so let's have a glimpse of Miko-sama's demeanor! Still in the passage, Yu Yi heard Huang Sheng's voice outside.
As Huang Sheng's passionate voice fell, the people who came to the rally also let out enthusiastic cheers, and they looked forward to the location where the spotlight fell.
Soon, a young girl appeared with a long-haired young man in a black mask and a white robe.
"Worship the Gift of God to our Son of God!" Huang Sheng bent down and shouted.
Everyone also shouted excitedly, "See Miko-sama." ”
Looking at the fanatical crowd, Yu Yi swallowed his saliva, and according to Lin Shu's explanation in advance, he tried his best to say in a steady voice: "God said that we can reach the new world together!" ”
New world, what new world? Yu Yi complained silently in his heart.
"It is an honor for us to walk with Miko-sama!" Huang Sheng said.
Lin Shu gently tugged Yu Yi's hand and motioned for him to sit down at the top of the seat.
After Yu Yi sat down, Huang Sheng began to talk about the teachings of the Dusk Sect, what should be to unite and help each other, and follow the empty words of the gods.
Yu Yi listened, his brows couldn't help but furrow deeply, how can this Dusk Sect look like it is foolish? Although he was very dissatisfied in his heart, he still saniently did not interrupt.
He listened to Huang Sheng talking about the origin of the Dusk Sect and the gods that the so-called Dusk Sect believed in.
"The red god rises from the end of the slightest, divides the seat belt in the troubled times, and protects people from fire and water. We have dedicated to his gods, and we have not forgotten his merits......"
Huang Sheng's words were extremely cumbersome, Yu Yi's head was dizzy when he heard it, he sat on the chair and straightened his back, but he was actually dozing off, and he had a mask on his face, just to help him cover it.
I don't know how long it took, Yu Yi was gently woken up by Lin Shu, and everyone was cheering.
"The preaching of the doctrine is over, and now it's free." Lin Shu reminded.
In the lobby, there are already a lot of food and drinks.
Yu Yi swallowed his saliva when he saw it, but Lin Shu reminded him that he couldn't take off the mask, and if he was hungry, he could go backstage to eat at the end of the rally.
"Is that what you're sitting here now?" Yu also asked.
"Yes, but someone might come to you for your blessing, so I woke you up." Lin Shu said.
"Blessing? I won't. Yu Yi was stunned and said.
"It's okay, you can just talk about God." Lin Shu said lightly.
Before Yu could speak, a woman came up with a baby in her arms, and the woman said, "Lord Son of God, can you please bless my child?" ”
"The child's father, he was out of the base with us last time." Lin Shu whispered.
Yu Yi froze, he got up and looked carefully at the child's eyebrows.
The child sucked his fingers and looked at Yu Yi curiously, he reached out and tried to touch the mask on Yu Yi's face.
The people who left the base last time, except for Yu Yi and Lin Shu and a young man who was lying in the hospital, were all dead.
They all died in order to evacuate themselves.
Yu also felt panicked in his heart.
He reached out and took the child from the woman's arms.
"What's the child's name?" Yu Yi asked softly.
"Shang Yunwang." The woman replied respectfully.
Yu Yi took a deep breath, he was not interested in the so-called blessing in his heart, and even felt that this was a means to fool people's hearts.
But at this moment, he looked at the clear eyes of the child in his arms, and the softness in his heart was touched.
In the lobby, everyone fell silent when the woman asked for a blessing, and they looked at Yu Yi and no one spoke.
Yu Yi lifted the child up, and he said in a loud voice, "God will bless you!" ”
The child's clear eyes looked at the people in the lobby, and as if he was startled by their burning eyes, he began to cry.
Yu Yi returned the child to his mother, and then he put his hand on his chest and said in a deep voice, "God bless everyone." ”
Everyone cheered and praised Yu Yi.
Yu also turned away in the noise.
Lin Shu followed behind him.
Yu Yi walked quickly to the backstage in silence, and when no one was around, he ripped off his mask and held on to the table to gasp for air, as if a drowning man had surfaced.
"Miko-sama, are you alright?" Lin Shu said with concern.
Yu Yi raised his head, tears in his eyes: "That child-"
"I don't blame you. There are often people dying in the base. Lin Shu tried to comfort Yu Yi.
Yu Yi frowned in pain, and he tugged at his collar as if his clothes were restricting his breathing.
"I never thought that someone would die because of me." Yu Yi said bitterly, and the emotions he had pent up in his heart erupted after seeing the child.
Now Yu Yi only felt that it was pitch black in front of him, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"Miko-sama, you're tired, go back and rest. There's a lot going on. Lin Shu said lightly.
……
Huang Sheng sat on the sofa and didn't say a word.
Lao Liu, the person in charge of the base, sat irritably behind the desk, his fingers constantly tapping on the table.
"The transfer of the base is on the agenda, and it is time to arrange for someone to stand guard outside the base." Huang Sheng said lightly.
Lao Liu looked at Huang Sheng: "That Phantom Blue Spirit Clan? Didn't Lin Shu say no? ”
"Miko-sama said yes, that is, yes." Huang Sheng said lightly, "Your position is not low, so you can naturally understand Lin Shu's situation at that time, she said no, just because there were a lot of people at that time." ”
Lao Liu said unwillingly: "Could it be that if there is a Phantom Blue Spirit Clan, we will have to give up so many years of hard work?" ”
Huang Sheng glanced at him lightly and said, "The Blue Spirit Clan is very important, don't underestimate him." Tomorrow I will leave for the Holy See to give a message. ”
"Is it that serious?" Lao Liu's brows furrowed tightly, "What is the situation?" ”
"Can't tell." Huang Sheng shook his head.
Lao Liu's eyes shot a fine light: "Can't we hunt it down?" ”
"Yes. Just don't say I didn't warn you, it's costly. Not even an entire base of the city of Piety is not enough. Huang Sheng said lightly, "You remember to explain the situation to the sect members in Qiancheng and ask them to transfer together." ”
Lao Liu was stunned: "So serious? Is the Great Council also powerless to resist? ”
"Hmm." Huang Sheng nodded.
Lao Liu gritted his teeth and finally agreed.
"When the time comes, I'll leave, Shenzi, you take care of it." Huang Sheng said.
Lao Liu narrowed his eyes: "What is the origin of this divine son?" He appeared out of nowhere, and I didn't get any information about him. ”
"It is inconvenient for him to disclose his identity. But let me tell you this, he should be the most promising existence among all the gods in the Holy See at present. Huang Sheng said in a deep voice.
"Oh? At present, there are one hundred and three divine sons of the Holy See, and you are so confident? Lao Liu said lightly.
"Hmm. In the beginning, I just wanted to try my best to let him grow and follow the fate of the future. But the appearance of the Blue Spirit Clan made me understand that his potential is immeasurable. Huang Sheng's face flashed with heat.
Lao Liu looked at him with a puzzled face.
"You also know the Great Council's god-making plan, right?" Huang Sheng said.
"Hmm. Many of the Divine Sons of the Holy See have participated in the God-making Project. Lao Liu nodded.
"But you don't know that the god-making plan has something to do with the spirit, right?" Huang Sheng said in a deep voice.
"What did you say?" Lao Liu was taken aback, how could the human god-making plan have anything to do with the spirit race?
"You just need to know that Miko-sama is in some danger at the moment. It's best not to leave the base, or the blue Elf Clan will definitely do something to him. Huang Sheng admonished.
"Is it so serious?" Lao Liu muttered.
