Chapter 11: The style of painting is wrong

(PS: I'm going to the hospital for a review of depression on the 4th today, and I don't know if I can come back at noon, so I updated it in advance.) )

Lu Yuanming resolutely denied that he was the Messiah and all identities related to religion, and this resoluteness even exceeded the level of slight hints, leaving no room for speculation at all, and bluntly denied all this.

In fact, with the exception of the middle-aged and elderly man and the thirty-year-old woman, who were the most fanatical and religious, the rest of the people were full of doubts.

Even if the education in the United States is de-intellectualized, the so-called happy education, in addition to the high-level elite, the middle and lower classes of the people can flicker, and even in the 21st century, there are still many American people who think that the world is round.

However, these people at the scene are at least with basic education, and judging by what they are wearing, there are a few so-called elites, who have always had doubts about Lu Yuanming's existence.

But Lu Yuanming's sincere and resolute denial made these people have reverse suspicions.

Lu Yuanming said again and again: "I am really not a Messiah, and I have nothing to do with any so-called gods, and at the same time I am a materialist, and I absolutely do not believe in any gods. ”

The middle-aged and elderly man seemed to have automatically assumed the role of a devout believer, and he drew a cross: "Jesus Christ also only called the Lord his father, and when the Spirit entered the mortal flesh, he did not cry out to the fire of heaven to burn the world, you may not understand your mission for the time being, but you are undoubtedly the Messiah, the Savior who will save us mankind at the end of time." ”

Lu Yuanming didn't even move his expression, and he didn't even bother to continue to refute, when a man in his twenties who was wearing glasses and a suit in the crowd and looked like the kind of social elite suddenly said, "Mr. Lu, can you elaborate on how this hope came about?" ”

"It's faith!" The middle-aged and elderly man immediately shouted.

"Well, there's nothing wrong with calling it faith." Lu Yuanming spread his hands and said: "My next words may be a little strange, but I am to negotiate with you with the greatest sincerity, what I said is true, first of all, I am from five years ago, that is, the timeline of 2023, I am a Chinese, not Chinese-American, that is, a real Chinese, and then came to your timeline for unknown reasons, and then died in a supernatural event, similar to a curse, and then came to this afterlife, Then I found out that I could go back to the mortal world......"

The crowd immediately became uproar, and many people asked how to return to the living world, and only the bespectacled elite and Ang were silently meditating.

The bespectacled elite suddenly said, "Mr. Lu, my name is Cthun Espit, and I am a psychiatrist, is all this you saying confirmed to be true?" Instead of your fantasies? ”

Lu Yuanming immediately said: "Yes, I'm very sure, but my mortal body is in a vegetative state, and when I go back to the mortal world, I will fall into boundless darkness, I can't feel my body, I can only dimly hear the surrounding sounds, and this is ...... This belief is what I brought from the mortal world, I don't know how much you know about China, we will burn paper money to worship our ancestors, but also express our prayers for hope for the future, and hope for a better life, we usually burn paper money on major festivals, as well as during the Qingming Festival dedicated to our ancestors, and the time of my mortal body happens to be the Spring Festival, I estimate that when my relatives burn paper money, they have hopes and wishes for me, which is transformed into a power that can be used in the afterlife. ”

Most of the people were stunned, and the tall and thin man immediately said, "Yes, burn paper money, I have burned paper money, that thing came from China a few years ago, I think it's very cool, by the way, Lord, my name is Tom Theodore, and I will serve you religiously." ”

"Call me by name!" Lu Yuanming didn't have a good tone for Tom, whether it was Tom's previous behavior of abandoning the child, or his words and deeds similar to betrayal as soon as he entered the vault, Lu Yuanming was very wary of him.

"Yes, Lord, no, Mr. Lu." Tom had a feeling of being able to stretch and bend, he ignored Lu Yuanming's estrangement, and immediately said respectfully.

At this time, the second thirty-year-old elite woman who knelt down before said: "Mr. Lu, I am Martha Julian, a noble governess, I know that in many myths and religions, there is a consciousness of sacrificing to gods and the dead, and the same should be true of burning paper money in China, in the past, we only thought it was a religious ceremony, but now that we are all in the afterlife, will it be these rituals that cause you to awaken your divinity?" ”

"I am not a god, and I have no divinity!"

Lu Yuanming emphasized very resolutely: "We have to talk about science!" ”

Everyone showed strange expressions, and the psychiatrist Cthun suddenly said, "Mr. Lu, is this power of yours infinitely usable?" ”

Lu Yuanming shook his head and said: "It is impossible to use it indefinitely, we all know that matter is conserved, energy is conserved, my relatives burned paper money, and then made a wish and obtained this ...... The power of faith, and then I gained it in the afterlife, but there must be a formula for transformation, and to be honest, I can conjure food and fresh water three times now, and then I can't conjure it again. ”

Most of the people immediately showed expressions of disappointment and even despair, and the middle-aged and elderly man immediately bowed to Lu Yuanming and said: "My lord, please don't be so depressed, you pass through the underworld and the mortal world, which itself is a symbol of divinity, and now it's just a lack of believers, we are dead, and the dead are probably unable to provide you with faith, but the living can, you can go back to the mortal world to develop believers, tell them that the end is coming, the judgment day has come, you can preach your way, let the world walk in your way, Let your kingdom be on the earth, and this faith will bring you to this underworld. ”

"Yes, yes, you can go back and find someone to burn paper money." Tom immediately hurried.

The rest of the people said the same.

Lu Yuanming basically said all the truth, he kept in mind that sincerity is the biggest killer, but he didn't tell all the truth, for example, after killing a monster, he could absorb white light particles, and then rely on these white light particles to become stronger, he didn't say this.

Even a young man who has just graduated from college has already suffered a backstab, and seeing the dark humanity, he has already thought about it a lot these days.

Do not suffer from widowhood, only suffer from inequality, this is the teaching of the ancestors.

He can show his own peculiarity, as long as others can't see the colorless light particles and can't use the colorless light particles, then he is unique, and can bring food and weapons, which makes him qualified as a leader.

But at the same time, if only he can become stronger after killing the monster and let others know, then this is a huge hidden danger.

You can be the same ant, you can be a butterfly alone, so how do the rest of you think?

So Lu Yuanming didn't say that as long as he killed the monster, he could gradually recover from the vegetative state, he smiled and said: "Yes, I have this plan, but my mortal body is in a vegetative state, although it can be slowly recovered, and it has begun to have clues, but it takes time, and I also want to try it, in addition to burning paper money, my relatives, my friends, or more others chant my name and care about me, whether this will bring the power of faith, I can try these later." ”

Everyone was smiling, although Lu Yuanming said that he could only conjure food three more times, but there was no doubt that this was hope, and they were indeed witnessing some kind of miracle at this moment.

At this time, the middle-aged and elderly man said very seriously and respectfully: "My lord, I am Edward James, a preacher of St. John's Cathedral, please tell us your word, let us practice your word, so that we can be saved." ”

Lu Yuanming was a little inexplicable, but all the people around him had serious faces, even Tom, who had always acted like a gangster, they were standing around Lu Yuanming, even if they were still suspicious, they couldn't help but hold their breath at this time, and made a serious appearance.

(…… Are Europeans and Americans so devout about their faith? But I really don't understand any of these gods, and I don't understand Christ, Crucifixion, or anything like that. )

Lu Yuanming really didn't know what to say.

But he didn't know, because the ability he had shown, and the rescue of food in this despair, was really the only lifeline for these people in front of him, and the vast majority of Europeans and Americans were essentially atheists, they were more or less influenced by the Cross Religion, the Bible, Jesus Christ, and so on.

Even those who are still skeptical treat Lu Yuanming with the mentality of preferring to believe it.

What if?

What if the Rim Is Really the Messiah? It's just that he himself doesn't know who he is?

And when the Messiah preached for the first time, they were the equivalent of the twelve disciples of Jesus!

Lu Yuanming looked at everyone's expectant expressions, he could only cough helplessly, and then with the mentality that sincerity is the biggest killer, he began to say: "My way, that is ......"

"Prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness!"

"We must be serious and lively, united and fraternal, industrious and brave!"

"We want to use our hands to achieve our dreams and achieve our future!"

"We must not be afraid of hardship, not afraid of sacrifice, and use human strength to fight against all difficulties and obstacles!"

"There is no savior in this world, and the monarch and God cannot save us, we must save ourselves, find more human beings, unite them, and then form a collective, and use the collective power to open up this afterlife and destroy all demons and monsters!"

Lu Yuanming sincerely said to the stunned crowd: "This is my way, I hope everyone can practice it." ”
