Chapter 153: Pious Repentance

When I woke up, it was already noon, and I was hungry again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info is lazy, just clean up, and go out to find food. Naturally, the days off were very pleasant, and no one cared about them.

Most of the elven food is mainly fruit, there are relatively few grains, meat is imported, and only some young elves are willing to *** The spirit clan has a special building, called the moon well, the well water of the moon well is actually part of the sap of the ancient tree of life, as long as the entire elf jungle is functioning normally, the elves even only need to drink well water to survive.

The average human race will be very unaccustomed to the elves at the beginning, and the various lifestyles will be a little different. But of course, Kevin has long been used to it, so he casually found a moon well, fished out two sips of water to drink, and even after breakfast, no one asked him for money.

Walking back into the church, it was already in a state of judgment. The priest sat in the middle, with a row of bear children kneeling below, and behind the bear children were sparsely gathered around several parents, standing or sitting, and some even hid far away.

This scene is also very familiar to Kevin, every time the problem is basically solved in this mode, he was also one of the bear children kneeling below, let his mother take it back. Mother has always been unsupportive of Kevin's behavior, but she is not against it, after all, she is not religious, but it is also very irritating to come to lead people like this for a long time.

When Kevin was a child, he was beaten by his mother a lot, but his mother's logic was: "Can you do something and not get caught?"

Looking at these other parents now, maybe they have similar things in their minds. The 30-year bear child period is not good, if you come here to do things regularly, then you are psychologically prepared, and your parents are used to it after a long time.

The priest is still talking about the almighty creator god and the like, and from time to time warns these children that if they continue like this, they will grow up to go to hell, and hell is terrible, and so on. None of the parents here are religious, otherwise the children would have taken care of themselves a long time ago, but even if they are not religious, they can't directly refute anything as an adult, this is a matter of principle. The priest was very eloquent, but they didn't dare to do anything to the children.

The children have been locked in the confessional room since last night, and they have nothing to eat, but it doesn't matter, after all, they are all in their twenties, and they can't die of hunger.

When Kevin walked in, the priest stopped and nodded at him, "How was yesterday's headache?"

"Alright. Kevin replied.

"Well," the priest smiled and nodded, "remember, it's the boundless power of the Creation God that can make you recover so quickly, and of course it has to do with your own piety. ”

Kevin nodded: "Well, that's why I came here today to confess." ”

"It's good that you have that," the priest nodded with a smile, "but as you can see, I'm busy educating them right now, so please come back another day." ”

"Oh, what's wrong with them?" Kevin asked seemingly casually, the kids all with their heads down, and no one looking up at him.

"They made mistakes. The priest replied, and then, naturally, began to educate again, "It is a blasphemy against God that they have ruined our important rite of release." If it weren't for God's mercy, then they would ......"

For the next hour, the priest was again in a state of flux, and I have to say that listening to his non-stop nonsense was also a kind of torture. He doesn't quote scriptures like a bard, or have a little humor to set the mood in the middle, but he keeps repeating boring teachings. It seems that if you want to achieve the purpose of brainwashing, the key is that the people on the side can't interrupt casually.

After an hour, the priest finally had a dry mouth, so he drank his saliva. While Kevin was drinking water, he hurriedly spoke: "These children are really naughty, I think back to when I was a child. Alas, that's naΓ―ve. ”

The priest finished drinking the water: "Actually, it is normal for children to be naughty, but they should not be naughty for too long." You've not made mistakes once or twice, why should you?"

"Father," Kevin began, "or I will use my own experience to educate them, and I will also make a confession incidentally." What do you think?"

The priest pondered for a moment, these bear children have been doing things all the time, and if there is a new way, they can try it, so he nodded in agreement.

Kevin immediately turned around and said to the children, "You guys, you're so young. I won't say much more, the priest has already told you a lot. I'll tell you about my experience as a child. ”

Many children quietly glanced up at Kevin, obviously with doubts in their eyes, but immediately lowered their heads again, their parents were on the side, and they didn't dare to be presumptuous.

"When I was a child, I was like you, and when I was a child, I also had an inexplicable hatred for the Church of Light, why? Because of rebellion, adults say this, I want to be like this, but this is not right. I still vividly remember the first time I did something. Kevin looked up at the roof and began to remember.

"I remember the first time, it was winter, there was no howling wind in the forest, but it still snowed, and when the snow melted, it was bitterly cold. The snow is about as thick as the feet are over, but everyone knows that the trees in the forest can hold out a lot of snow, and it is a rare winter for the elves. Everyone hid in their homes to keep warm, and only a few rangers had to swim in the jungle. That day, I had been planning for a long time, and I finally started to implement it. "Kevin goes into storytelling mode.

"At that time, the Church of Light had just come in, the church had just been built, and there were not many believers, or the believers' faith was not strong enough. No one came to worship because it was too cold. The priest and the nun and the others worshipped in this way, and there was not a single elven tribesman, and it was very deserted. So I went. Kevin recreates the scene.

Before you know it, everyone is listening to Kevin's story and being drawn to it.

"The priest was glad to see me coming alone, and one was better than nothing, so he did everything he could to preach to me. I also had a lot of questions, and I asked, 'What does God look like?' and the priest replied to me, 'God is ineffable, indescribable,' I was amazed,' indescribable?, does it mean the state of animal mating? God looks like this?,' the priest patiently explained, 'God is beyond our imagination, we can't imagine what God looks like, so we can't describe it.'"

"I asked, 'Is he beyond our imagination?' and the priest replied, 'Of course there are people, the Pope and the Holy Maiden, but he can't describe what he looks like.' I didn't understand at the time, 'Why can't I describe it?' The priest was surprised, 'You know mosaics?' I replied, 'Of course I do, isn't it just a wall decoration?'"

Priest on the spot: "......"

"We talked for a long time, and we had a good conversation," Kevin recalled, smiling with satisfaction, "and we talked until the afternoon, and finally the conversation ended, and I went out to leave, and it was cold outside, and the priest told me to close the door." So I put a big iron lock on the outside of the church in order to close it well enough. ”

Everyone present: "......"

"It seems that in the end he didn't find out that I did it, and the priest couldn't get out, so he had to break the door. Kevin shook his head and sighed, "I regret it now that I think about it, I will repent now." ”

Priest: "......"

"God will forgive me, right?" Kevin turned to the priest and asked, "Legend has it that God will be slapped on the left side of the cheek and then stretch out the other half of his face for people to continue to hit as a sign of mercy. ”

The priest coughed dryly: "If you can sincerely repent, you will be forgiven." ”

"Okay, then I'll move on to the second bad thing," Kevin's memory was pulled away again, "I was greatly encouraged by the first success, and I immediately began to prepare for the second ......"

After three minutes, Kevin shook his head and sighed, "In the end, I regretted pushing the nun into the dung pit. But after the push, my conscience was condemned, but the matter was already done, and I couldn't do it, so I wittily threw a mask into the manure pit. But she didn't, alas! ”

Nun on the side: "......"

"The third time, I became more rebellious, and I started to unite some of my friends...... Eventually, we managed to push the priest into the pit as well, and for a moment our consciences were condemned, so we collectively threw a mask into the pit. But the priest did not answer any of them, alas! ”

Priest: "......"

"That time we were caught, and the priest who was covered in educated us, and not only was he, but he also spewed a little feces out of his mouth, and he probably ate a little when he fell into the dung pit. We were scared, we never thought that someone could actually spew feces all over their mouths?"

The priest glared, as if he had something to say.

Kevin hurriedly corrected: "I mean, the priest was able to continue to educate us under extremely difficult conditions. We were moved. ”

"Wait," the priest finally felt a little wrong, "these things don't need to be too detailed. ”

"Okay. Kevin nodded, "Then I'll start talking about the fourth trouble......"

Kevin's ability to tell stories is of course unquestionable, this is his profession, and these things are real people, I just reviewed them in my diary last night, and they are familiar. At the same time, the priest here has changed several times, and when Kevin was doing trouble, he was not this priest, so he had no impression of what Kevin was doing, and of course he had no impression of Kevin as a person.

"Twenty-third, we ......"

"Wait," the priest finally felt that something was wrong, but he said nevertheless, "your sins are too serious, and this little church may not wash away your sins, and I suggest you go to the cathedral." Find a bishop of a higher rank than me. ”

"Oh, then these children will have to go to the bishop to wash them later?" Kevin casually pointed to the children on their knees.

"This ......," the priest hesitated, "if they don't do it again in the future, then my side will be able to wash away their sins." ”

"What if they do it again? Do you think they won't do it again?" Kevin asked.

Priest: "......"

"Well, when they grow up, I'll go with them to the bishop. After all, we are all of one type of sin," Kevin replied, "and when the priest wants to give us a letter of introduction or something, it seems that ordinary people can't just meet the bishop, right?"

The priest was helpless: "Then you go on, and I'll see how much I can wash." ”

Kevin turned to face the child: "Do you see? If you continue like this, you will have to repent like me in the future, are you afraid?"

The child nodded: "I'm afraid." ”

Kevin then recounted: "Twenty-third, actually, was a huge failure for us. So I'm not going to talk about it, but I'll talk about it for the twenty-fourth time. ”

"Why don't you talk about failure?" The parents in the back listened energetically, and couldn't help but ask when they didn't talk about it.

"The lesser sin of failure, I will wash away the big sin first, and then it will be the turn of the lesser sins," Kevin replied, and the parents were immediately convinced, and Kevin continued, "Twenty-fourth time...... We finally set fire to the church house, which was our most successful. But we didn't expect it to be so serious, and we immediately participated in the firefighting operation. But we didn't know a lot of common sense at the time, and we actually threw the Bible into the fire, thinking that there was some magic in the scripture that would automatically trigger the fire to be extinguished. Unfortunately, no. ”

"The Bible was burned, the walls were blackened, the cross was blackened, and thankfully no one burned to death. But the priest's face was burned black, and his beard changed from a white beard to a black beard. The priest was twice as good as usual, and he kept talking to us, and we all felt that Blackbeard was much younger than Whitebeard. ”

Priest: "......"

"Since then, we've been fined for working, we've been working late, we've been working overtime. We were asked to paint the walls white, but the pure black walls inspired us to create, and I remembered that many churches have murals on the walls. At night, we painted a lot of indescribable pictures on the walls, such as animals mating, after all, the appearance of God is also indescribable. ”

"The next day, of course, we were punished and ordered to paint the walls white. But after all, we are still children, and it is inevitable that we will make mistakes in our work, and we accidentally get the wrong paint. At that time, although it was completely white, this white color was not long-lasting. Three days later, a rain washed away the paint behind it, revealing indescribable pictures on the walls. ”

"At that time we agreed that it must be God's will, that it was a miracle. We cheered, we were elated, we laughed. But the priest insists on denying it, and it is strange that we usually want to pray for something, once it succeeds, it can be called God's will, and once it fails, it is considered a lack of piety, or a test of God. But why not admit such a manifest miracle now?"

"Of course, we know now that it's the paint problem. I repent for our carelessness. Kevin sighed. Of course, the parents present remembered the arson case in the past, and at this time they had already seen who Kevin was, one of the former bear children. But no one said anything, everyone watched the play happily and laughed secretly in their hearts.

The priest could no longer hold back: "Are you really careless? You did it on purpose! If your confession is not sincere, then I have no ability to wash away your sins." ”

"Oh?" Kevin was surprised, "what will these children do in the future? I can't be forgiven for repenting so much, so can these children be forgiven in the future?"

The priest was stunned, there are children and parents here, if this person cannot be forgiven now, then I am afraid that these children will break the jar and break the jar and make things worse, not only that, but the parents will also be disappointed, and there will be a great obstacle to the mission.

Thinking of this, the priest couldn't help glaring at Kevin fiercely, Kevin lowered his head, still humble and respectful, but what he said was: "For the twenty-fifth time, we ......"

It wasn't until late in the evening that it was getting dark, and Kevin didn't talk about it for the 78th time, and the total of 349 battles was less than a quarter, and Kevin had to finish his story and score four days before he could act. The priest gritted his teeth in anger, but in order to preach, in order to show God's mercy, he had to listen to his confession.

It is also the first time for parents to know so many details about their children, and usually children do not tell their parents about any actions.

"Alright, that's all for today," interrupted the priest with a dark face, "your sins are too great, and you need to pray more and be more devout to be forgiven." ”

"Okay," Kevin nodded, then took out his diary, "This is my diary when I was a child, it contains all my troubles, and now I will give it to the priest." Hopefully, my sins will be washed away soon. ”

The priest took it with a dark face: "Well, you go back first." This sinful thing is placed here. Forget your sins and your soul can be sublimated, you see?"

"Okay, then I'll go. Kevin smiled and turned around.

Although the priest was angry, at the last moment, he was able to keep smiling and watched Kevin calmly walk out of the church. Suddenly, Leyson looked up and said, "Father, I'm going to repent." ”

As if commanded, the other elves all raised their heads in unison: "I will repent too." "I want it too...... However, their acting skills are not enough, and they still have smiling faces on their lips at this time, which makes people doubt their sincerity.

The corners of the priest's mouth finally twitched twice, and he casually threw the diary on the table: "Okay, that's it for today, get out of here!"

"Oh, let's go. "The elves are like amnesty, although they have been kneeling for a long time and are a little limp, but they are still jumping and jumping under the condition of limping.

The nuns and others on the side hurriedly comforted the priest, saying that they were children after all. The priest was angry, but he was still able to calm down, after all, he was old and not very angry.

After dinner, it was getting dark. The priest lit the oil lamp, picked up Kevin's diary and flipped through it, the first three were exactly the same as Kevin said, but the back was a large number of white pages, only a date, and the content was basically only one line, and even only the word "trouble".

The priest was puzzled until he turned to the last page, and when he saw the date, it was today!

"This will be the last time to do something, in the name of repentance, and to make the priest wise that I am doing something, but I can't stop it. Do you feel the gap between me and the children now? hahaha......"

The priest threw the book in anger, and the disciples outside the door heard the voice and hurried in: "Father, what's wrong?"

"Today's man is Kevin, bring him in!" the priest was furious.

"This ...... Now?" Living here is sparse, and the child's parents have to look for it the day before and arrive the next day. Who are you looking for in the middle of the night, and you're not a forest ranger or something, who cares about you?

"Find the believers! Find the most devout local believers!" the priest waved his hand, and the believers below had no choice but to go out and run errands. Of course, devout believers will not object, even if someone wakes up in the middle of the night, two words of "God will remember you" can fool the past.

After a lot of tossing and turning in the middle of the night, these people finally found Kevin's residence. The priest ran directly in the middle of the night with a few nuns, raised his hand and knocked on the door, but the door was not locked at all, and it creaked open automatically when he was knocked, and there was no one in the black hole in the house.

This scene made the priest and others feel chills, but this feeling was also fleeting. The priest drew a cross on his chest, strode in directly, and said again: "Kevin, come out!"

As a result, he didn't take two steps, and a thread hung on his foot, touching the mechanism, and a large pile of dust was suddenly sprinkled on his head. The priest and the others were also a bit level, and hurriedly opened the light shield defense, but the gray thing was scattered in the air. Come from all directions, how to prevent it from still getting a little touched.

subconsciously slapped it, but as a result, the ashes were raised again, and I only felt that the smoke was rising and I was gray. It's all the ashes left over from Kevin's cleaning of the house, and it's not lethal, it's just a prank.

Everyone was furious, and they really didn't believe that they could be killed with such a small mechanism? Everyone rushed in, but this time there were no more mechanisms and no one inside.

"Ran away?" muttered the priest, "where can I run?"

Suddenly, there was a shout outside: "Catch the thief!

The priest and the others were startled, and subconsciously wanted to go out, but found that the door closed automatically, and it could not be opened for a while.

The believer immediately subconsciously wanted to break down the door, but the priest calmly stopped him: "Okay, it won't look good if you run away, wait." ”

Sure enough, it was only a moment, and more than a dozen forest rangers hurried over, and the forest rangers of the elven clan were equivalent to the sheriffs of the human race, managing some trivial matters in the jungle. As soon as the rangers arrived, they saw several children standing outside the door, and the rangers hurriedly squatted down and asked, "What's the situation?"

The children pointed to the door behind them with their little fingers: "We caught a couple of thieves and locked them in the house." ”

The forest ranger's face was solemn, the front row drew a short sword, the back row drew a bow, and one person gently opened the children's locks, and pushed the door open, only to see that it was actually the priest and others.

The atmosphere was very awkward, and the children grinned: "Ah, why is the priest, the priest is a thief......!"

The rangers laid down their weapons, and of course they knew that these children had been causing trouble, but for some reason the priest was always in the middle of it. The priest defended with a dark face: "This is a misunderstanding, I can explain it clearly." ”

Of course, the rangers believed: "Yes, but ...... We also have our procedures, and since this is happening today, the priest has to go with us. ”

"Well," said the priest, helplessly, but still did not forget to ask, "what about Kevin? ”

The children laughed: "He's already out of the country!"

Priest: "......"

The ranger smiled and took the priest's hand: "We won't tie you up, but you have to cooperate." Let's go first. ”

Priest: "......" (To be continued.) )
