Chapter 269: Qualifications for Admission to the Central Church
"The fact that we can come to the Monastery of St. Quin'an Lina shows that we are also an outstanding presence in the Metropolitan Diocese of Farlon, but we are a little uncomfortable when we first come here." Looking at these guys who either looked down on them or persuaded them to quit, they wanted to give them a dismount, but in the end they held back.
"We'll stick to it." He said with a smile.
"I hope." The two wardens glanced at Dursley, who was lying on the floor and couldn't get up, and turned out of the dormitory.
"How are you?" When Madres saw the prison leave, he immediately went over to help Desley.
"I'm fine." Dursley got up, "When I came, I heard that the monastery is a place to exercise the soul, but it still feels more than I imagined, it's too difficult~"
"Here it is a practice for these pious people, and it is a tempering for the corrupt clergy." "We haven't officially started yet, and the bitterness and loneliness after that are still to come, so I can't stand you or go back." ”
"Go back?" Dursley stopped crying when he heard this, "We have lost a companion and our private property has been confiscated, these prices are not paid for nothing, I will persist even if I grit my teeth, I will choose the best church after graduation!" ”
"Ambitious." Hearing this, he gave a thumbs up, "It's just that I'm afraid you'll lose more." ”
"It's just a loss of strength, and I'm the only one left." Dursley said.
The next morning, as the monastery bell rang, they went downstairs to eat, only to see that the dining room was full, and after praying, they had no choice but to pick up the food and stand behind it.
There were a lot of people in the restaurant, only most of the people went to the teaching church to study, and the rest of the people saw that they were either going to meditate or go to the mill and weed, obviously those who had achieved great cultivation.
The instructor was Antony, a thin old monk who had a lot of lessons, and spent most of his morning on the theology of the struggle with Satan, in addition to explaining two geometric formulas.
At lunchtime, they took their place at the table, and they could make soup with bread with peace of mind, and the strange monk next to them quietly talked to their companions during the meal, and was almost crazy about the theology they had learned in the morning.
The same is true of the topics being talked about at the other tables, but at the end of the day, you can always hear the words of defeating the Eighth Demon.
"Do you know what the Eighth Demon is?" After eating, he asked Dursley.
Dursley, with his eyes downcast, glanced at him, "I don't even look at the nun, do you think I can care about this?" ”
Hearing this, he nodded, then looked at Madrids.
"I'm not interested in stories outside of lectures, and I can't tell them as well as I do, but even then we still have to copy them, and we have to work after they're done." Madrids shrugged, the arrangement of the monastery had left them with little energy.
In the library, the three of them were writing with all their might, and when they learned that they couldn't complete today's task and had no food, they finally wrote their own copy before the children finished copying, and the curator was slightly satisfied when he saw their speed, he cut off the wick, and then said to them, "Good performance, after a while, you can copy two books in one afternoon." ”
"Curator, why don't you be so cruel?" Dursley pointed to his forehead and said, "I'm still hurt." ”
"Copying is a kind of practice, you will feel it slowly, and as for your wounds, it will be almost healed at that time." The curator smiled, looked at the children who had already copied and said, "Let's go to dinner." ”
"Curator, if I want to see Sister Scarlet, who do I need to report?" Seeing that the curator was leaving, he hurriedly asked.
"Sister Scarlet? The canonized adult? Hearing this, the curator looked at her, "How did you meet her?" ”
"In the past, when I was out in distress, she saved me." Teaser said.
"And that kind of thing?" The curator's table was slightly weird, "So you want to thank her, don't you?" ”
"Yes, when I chose to come here to practice, I also meant to meet her." Teaser said.
"Oh." When the curator heard this, he looked like this, then looked at him and smiled, "Actually, it doesn't have to be like this, the priesthood doesn't ask for thanks, it's the same for you to thank God." ”
"You're not her, how can you know if she needs it?" Hearing this, she retorted, "I thank God every day, but she is not a god, if she has a grudge in her heart because she is not thanked for helping others, will she have an image of her faith in the future?" ”
"If a holy product is shaken in her heart because of this little thing, then she is not worthy to be called a holy product." Hearing this, the curator said coldly, "If you really want to see her, it's not that there is no way, you can see it when you enter the central church." ”
"How do I get into the central church area?" Ask.
"After passing the test and performing well, the monastery will regularly send a group of people into the central church to practice and cultivate, after all, for some reason, the monastery is very short of manpower." The curator said and looked at the priest, "But as the heart of the monastery, you must take an oath to serve the monastery for the rest of your life, don't you want to go back to Farlong to be a happy priest?" ”
"I don't have a problem." "I have sacrificed myself to God alive, and it is the same everywhere." ”
"What about you?" When the curator heard this, he looked at Dursley and the two of them.
"We... We just came here to practice, and after graduation, we will return to our hometown. Dursley hesitated for a moment and said, joking that he would choose to stay in the convent if he was sick of his brain, and if he was given a diploma now, he would leave now.
"That's the best, and to be honest, I see that you're suffering too." The curator didn't show any dissatisfaction when he heard this, he looked at him and said:
"Since you have a higher goal, you can't be like them, you don't have to copy from tomorrow onwards, but you have to read the scriptures several times the amount to enhance your knowledge, and in terms of physical fitness, the activities arranged by the prison are not enough at all, you should practice something else."
"All-round development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, art and labor?" Teaser said.
"That's right, that's what it means." The curator said with a teachable look, "Whether you are a monk or a nun, a warrior or an alchemist, you must be independent in all aspects, and even elevate yourself to the top, so that you can solve the world's problems for God and the monastery." ”
"Please rest assured, Director, I have nothing to fear." He looked up and said.
"Very well, no matter what your foundation is, as long as you have this thought, you will be invincible." The curator nodded with satisfaction, "Regarding martial arts, you can go to the prison for advice, and the same is true for tracking down heresies, when you gain enough knowledge, prestige, and power, you will step into the center of the monastery and learn more advanced things!" ”
"How long will the last test take?" Masturbation asked.
"It depends on when the news from the Cord border comes, and as for the number of places to test, it depends on how many people are lost over there." Curator said.
