Chapter 261: Trauma
Obviously, Ron brought his wife over and didn't introduce him to him on the surface, but Ron didn't speak, and he wouldn't take the initiative to ask.
Looking at his fragile fawn-like wife, Yorks could only ask Erin, who was more demure and gentle, to accompany Ron's wife, Laura.
At this time, Irene's usefulness is evident here, compared to him, a priest with a strong sense of oppression, Erin is obviously more prominent.
He is like a green leaf supporting the little nun.
At least when Erin invited her to visit the church, the woman named Laura didn't look at her so much, but looked at Erin hesitantly.
"Go ahead."
Ron reached out again and patted his wife, and said gently: "I grew up here, the people here are all good people, it will be fine, I will come to you as soon as I go to the backyard with the priest to see how to renovate it." β
Laura silently glanced at the nun in front of her, she could feel that the nun in front of her haunting temperament could make her unconsciously settle down, which she had never experienced before, even her husband couldn't do it.
Of course, the priest in front of him also felt this way, but he seemed to be
After thinking about it, Laura nodded and whispered, "Okay." β
She knew what her husband was doing here, and no matter what, she didn't want to affect his work because she was affecting him.
This made Ron smile, his inseparable wife could do this, and he would have tried it too.
You know, even if you go to the doctor, those doctors can't get Laura to get half a step away from him.
Ron sensed that this time it might not have been in vain.
York glanced at Erin.
Erin understood in seconds, nodded and smiled, "Come on, Ms. Laura, please come with me." β
Laura took a deep breath, was mentally prepared, and turned around to follow.
Ron kept waving until his wife disappeared into sight with the nun, and then breathed a sigh of relief:
"Father, I'm smiling."
"It's fine."
York shook his head: "Come with me and see what you plan to renovate." β
With that, York strode towards the backyard, believing that Ron would always say it at the end.
"Yes."
Ron hurriedly followed.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Father York, I think I can leave it as it is, keep the structure unchanged, and the specific renovation will focus on the doors and windows, the roof, the faΓ§ade ......"
In the backyard, Ron began to turn into another professional, pointing at the backyard.
With pen and paper in hand, he wrote down the materials he might need, along with an approximate price.
"That's probably all you need."
Ron said, handing the paper in his hand to the priest.
Yorks has always been indifferent to these things, anyway, he knows that Ron must be the best service, and even the highest discount, down to the point of cost price.
"How many days?"
York just glanced at the papers, then looked away.
"Can it be done before Halloween?"
It's dragged on until now, and then it's Halloween.
This means that Ron will probably have to work overtime today.
"Yes."
Ron had a pride on his face: "Priest, I'm not alone, there are more than a dozen employees underneath. β
Hearing this, York smiled and returned the paper to Ron.
"Okay, there's someone living in the church now, and if there's anything you need, you can ask him."
Yorks gestured in the direction of John Wick, who was enjoying his leisure moments, leaning against a corner of the backyard with a book and quietly watching.
As a priest, as a boss, he is still quite humane, there must be a lunch break, if Erin has nothing else to do or doesn't go out, this god-killing time is actually very free.
Ron nodded, and he followed the priest's gaze in the other direction.
There, too, he saw John Wick, who was a burly man.
"Yes, Father."
At this point, Ron's expression began to change a little, because the work was over, but he still hesitated.
York was not in a hurry, but continued to return to the church with Ron.
Walking down the backyard side path to the church, Ron's procrastinating, apprehensive voice sounded behind him.
"Father York, may I ask you a question?"
Still can't help it, Yorks said gently, "Of course, Ron, if I can give an answer." β
"I heard you performed an exorcism on Lady Moissan's daughter, Sarah, before? Is it true? β
Ms. Moissan's was when he used the needle method to exorcise demons, although it is no longer needed.
"Hmm."
York didn't hide it.
Ron had been a member of the very devout community of believers at Pluto Church, much like Ms. Moissan.
"So...... So Sarah really, really possessed by a demon? β
Hearing this, York stopped and turned to look at Ron, who was a head shorter than him, only to see a strange look in his eyes.
"Ron, do you want to say anything to me?"
Ron looked up at the priest in front of him, who could envelop everything, and took a deep breath and said seriously.
"Yes, Father York, I would like to ask you to help me take a look at my wife, Laura, whom I suspect is demonically possessed......"
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
As a church with a certain age and passed down from the old times to the present, the area inside the Pluto Church is still very large.
There is an area that has been set aside by York as a quiet room where believers can settle down.
It is better to say that it is a quiet room than an alternative ornamental room, on which are hung some plants or grains, landscape and human murals.
The church can do without anything, and there is no shortage of such age-old frescoes, all of which Yorkes scavenged from the headquarters and placed them.
Each mural is lifelike, so that everyone has a different feeling about each painting, just like a thousand people have a thousand Hamlets in their hearts.
The most important thing is that this room is full of the majestic divine power that he can calm people with.
Erin could sense the instability and anxiety of the woman next to her, so she took her to the quiet room.
Here, too, there are some believers, but they don't bother each other, only nodding silently.
The effect of the quiet room was still good, and I was stunned to see the woman stop in front of a field mural illuminated by the fiery red sunset.
Erin stood silently beside her, waiting for a while before asking carefully.
"Ms. Laura, do you have something on your mind?"
Laura was stunned, her eyes were only fiery red, her lips moved, and finally she shook her head and whispered.
"Nope."
Erin didn't say anything anymore, she was all a silent companion.
The two stood in front of the mural for a long time, and it was not until York brought Ron over that the peace was broken.
Man your posts.
Laura was still more dependent on her husband, and when Ron came over, she came out of this stunned state, but it was much better than the frightened fawn state before.
York glanced at Erin and motioned for her to come out.
"Father, what's wrong with you?" Erin noticed something strange about the priest.
"How do you feel about that woman?" York Road.
Hearing this, Erin was stunned, her eyebrows frowning slightly.
"You're talking about Ms. Laura?"
"Hmm."
York calmed down: "Her husband suspects that she is possessed by a demon. β
"Demonic possession?" Erin shook her head, "Priest, I don't feel any signs of demonic possession on Ms. Laura's body. β
Yorkes smiled: "She was able to enter the quiet room without any changes, obviously not as simple as demonic possession." β
Erin recalled what she had seen, looked up at the priest who seemed to be able to suppress everything, and said seriously.
"Father, I think Lady Laura has something on her mind, she has a lot on her mind."
"Well, it really looks like it......" York's tapped his temple.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Confirming her thoughts from Erin, York began to find out what was going on with Laura.
From Ron's mouth alone, York knew that he had not encountered the supernatural situation, nor had he seen anything, and that all of this anomaly was Laura's personal condition.
This is not in line with the development of ordinary paranormal events, because no matter what, when a paranormal event occurs, the people around the victim are one of the most affected groups.
From this point, York can basically conclude that this is not a paranormal event or a paranormal phenomenon, but a real real case.
Ron's wife, Laura, is sick.
"Father, Laura, isn't she really demon-possessed?" The pain on Ron's face began to become very apparent.
"So it's all my imagination."
Yorkes sat on the bench and glanced at Laura, who was accompanied by Erin behind him, and only felt that the other party was like a glass bottle full of cracks, and he thought for a while:
"Ron, do you know Laura's past? For example, she has experienced something more exciting before. β
York's tone was more subtle.
"Generally speaking, a situation like her will only develop to this point if it is more stimulating."
"In the past?"
Ron stretched out his hand and rubbed his face, and said heavily: "She didn't say it, and the doctor also asked about her situation, because in this way, she can be more effectively groomed and treated.
But she didn't want to say it, and I respected her choice, because what Laura didn't want to talk about, it was something she didn't want to think about anyway.
And she told me seriously that she had forgotten everything and couldn't remember the details. β
York looked at Ron's heavy look and sighed.
"Ron, if it's really a psychological and spiritual illness, then she needs to learn to heal herself, and opening her heart is only the first step, if this first step can't be done, then ......"
The meaning is that it is very obvious that if the first step is not done, then there is no salvation.
Ron subconsciously looked back at his increasingly depressed wife, put away his pain, and nodded at her with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"I see, Father."
He whispered silently, "I'll figure it out myself." β
Yorkes heard the desperation in it, and it was obvious that Ron had nothing to do, after all, his woman didn't want to say what else to do.
"Ron, I have another way." York sighed.
"It's just that you have to be mentally prepared."
Ron looked at the priest suddenly.
York disagreed: "The process may make your wife miserable or hold a grudge against you, because it is tantamount to revealing her scars that are not yet good.
Do you want to try? β
Hearing this, Ron subconsciously licked his dry lips.
"Father, I have long been mentally prepared that as long as I can cure or alleviate Laura's condition, I am willing to accept all the consequences."
"Okay."
Yorks looked at Laura, who was dazed, and said calmly.
It seems that the long-lost injection is still going to reappear at this moment.
Without any extra nonsense, York shot Laura directly in the lounge with a set of needles inserted into the coma needle.
Then, with the help of Ron, who had been mentally prepared, and Erin, who looked confused, the unconscious Laura was carried to his personal lounge.
"Father, what are you?"
Erin looked confused throughout the whole process, not knowing what her priest's operation meant, so she directly stunned people.
"Treatment."
Yorks was concise and asked Ron to sit down, then looked at the confused Erin.
"Another means of teaching you psychic abilities."
As he spoke, York put his hand on Ron's shoulder.
"Of course, this requires the help of a magic circle."
Yorks looked at Erin and smiled, and with the magic that began to surge in his body, a crimson circle instantly formed under his feet.
Only Erin could see the circle swirling from the ground, a flame of light spreading along the lines.
"Psychic abilities are not only able to interpret messages and symbols, but also to provide relevant healing and psychological counseling."
York gestured to his shoulders for Erin to take over.
Erin understood what was going on, and began to reach out and put her hand on her priest's arm.
"We only need to connect with Laura's spiritual energy to experience her thoughts, memories, and even the most painful feelings......"
In the light of the circle, York's voice grew farther and farther as he stroked Laura's forehead with one of his free hands.
Suddenly, the space changed instantly.
Before Erin and Ron, who were even more confused, could see what they could do, they suddenly found themselves in a car.
Outside the car is a wide field with no edge in sight, and the setting sun in the sky casts a fiery red sunset, which is beautifully reflected.
"This ......"
Ron's eyes widened in an unbelievable look.
He sat in the back seat of the car, next to a man holding a baby, while his wife appeared in the driver's seat in front of him.
He felt like a bystander, a bystander that no one could see.
Ron looked blankly to the side, the priest and the nun happened to be sitting next to him, there were so many people crowded in the small back seat, but he didn't feel crowded at all, and even reached out and touched it and penetrated the car, the body of the baby man.
"Father York, what is this?"
"This is Laura's memory, her most memorable thing." Yorkes lay on his back in the seat, looking at Laura in the front seat and the man driving the car talking and laughing, and said indifferently.
"At the same time, it is also the source of her condition, it seems that she is not unwilling to say."
York looked out the window, at the wall-like sky, and continued.
"It's that she chose to close this memory, your wife didn't lie to you, she does seem to have forgotten the relevant details and this memory."
Erin subconsciously looked at Ron, and at this point, she understood what her priest was doing.
Ron was silent, and he subconsciously looked at his smiling wife, a smile he hadn't seen in a long time.
"Is that so, it seems that the man with the burn is ......"
Ron's perspective shifted to the man holding the baby next to him, and he said bitterly.
"I see."
Erin looked at her priest again to see what he was going to do next, only to see the priest staring at the radio playing in front of her, narrowing his eyes.
"Is there a situation?"
Erin subconsciously followed the priest's gaze and cast her gaze on the car machine that had been playing a certain station in front of her.
Something was being said inside.
"Flowing, flowing with clean water like never before, you can not only save money, but also filter out dangerous minerals......"
As the words came over the radio, the man holding the baby in the back seat said with a smile.
"Are we going to buy a water filter?"
Under the watchful eyes of the three of them, Laura, who was in charge of driving, replied, "Are you sure?" β
"Of course, the less garbage we consume, the better, isn't it? And it's better for our children that way. β
The man looked down at his child, his face full of tenderness.
"There's so much harmful stuff in the water, like minerals or what, uh, microchips?"
Laura glanced in the car rearview mirror, and seemed to have a helpless smile on her face because of this picture.
"Okay, we're going to buy a water filter tomorrow, and some tin foil, and by the way, blocking the government's garbage signal, which is good for our kids, right?"
"Right, very right." The man replied, smiling and reaching out to touch the child's little hand.
It's a happy family of three.
Both Ron and Erin fell silent, except for York, staring at the body of the car in front of him, which was still playing the radio, without any expression on his face.
In the next second, there were a few clicks on the car machine, and it seemed to be switched to a certain stage.
In the next second, a strange voice suddenly sounded.
"The Legion, the Legion, and other demons are hunting us down......"
Laura frowned, and reached out to switch to another station.
"This radio is broken." She said.
However, at this moment, the back seat was still quiet, and under the coaxing of his father, the grinning baby suddenly cried.
Then a phrase came over the radio.
"Why don't you think the gods answer your prayers? Because we are stronger. β
Laura's brows furrowed even tighter, and she heard her husband's voice coaxing the child, and looked back in confusion.
"Didn't you hear?"
"Huh?"
The man just coaxed the child and said.
"Hear what?"
It was as if I hadn't heard it.
Then, at the very moment when Laura turned to her head, in York's calm face, Erin's eyes widened, and Ron's heavenly scream, a van crashed into her head-on.
At this moment, Erin only had time to scream.
"Priest!"
"It's fine."
York's voice fell, and the truck slammed into the car Laura's car.
The violent recoil and inertia hit, and only Laura's family of three was affected, York and Erin, and the dazed Ron still sat firmly in place.
Rumble!
They just watched as the van and Laura's car exploded in a collision.
Turned upside down.
The huge movement startled the cars passing by, and the well-meaning car owners hurriedly stopped and ran over to each other, and they first pulled out Laura, who was fastening her seat belts and seemed to be conscious.
But as soon as these well-wishers pulled Laura out, the truck and the car directly ignited a fire, and the fire, which was even redder than the sunset, engulfed everything, devoured the owner of the truck and Laura's husband and children......
York got up from the back seat under his ass and looked down at Ron, who was watching everything.
"Now you should understand what is going on with your wife, right? Everything she sees, all the sources,
So she wasn't possessed by a demon, but the aftermath of trauma after a car accident, and the visions she saw were all knots in her heart that she couldn't let go......"
"Don't! No!! β
Laura seemed to be still awake, she stared at the explosion in front of her with her head full of blood, and her face was full of madness and wanted to rush over, but she was stopped by a few good Samaritans next to her.
"Don't!!"
She couldn't see Yorks next to her, she couldn't see the silent Erin, she couldn't see her future husband Ron, who was already in tears.
