It is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong
The billowing smoke obscured her vision, Yue Xiaomeng couldn't stop coughing, and her survival instinct prompted her to struggle to crawl out from under Lan En, the sudden change not to mention that she was a girl less than ten years old, even if she was a mature adult, she was afraid to be scared silly, she looked around, it was all smoke, the fire spread rapidly, and the air became hotter and hotter, Yue Xiaomeng covered her mouth and nose tightly, but she didn't know where to go.
Jingle ...... Jingle ......
Suddenly, the crisp wind chimes rang, a wisp of coolness blew by, and the cold wind mixed with drizzle washed away the smoke in front of her, Yue Xiaomeng was already hot and a little delirious, instinct drove her to follow the wind chimes, the slightest coolness came to her face, dispelling the scorching air, Yue Xiaomeng used all her strength to barely climb out of the window, and she fell to the ground weakly.
The last thing I saw was a drizzle and a black umbrella to keep out the wind and rain.
......
The blazing fire engulfed the church, and the open space outside the church was filled with soldiers, armed with spears and bows and arrows, led by a middle-aged man with blond hair, wearing black leather gloves, a tuft of hair on his black gold-rimmed top hat, a brown cane studded with gems in his left hand, and his right hand resting lightly on the shoulders of a blonde young man, and the servants held their umbrellas respectfully, even though the rain had already wet their backs.
"Why did you bring me to see this?, is it fun to kill?" the blonde boy turned his head to look at his father with a puzzled expression.
"It's not interesting, it's not interesting at all, it's just that they happen to be damned, and I happen to be able to kill them, Yaros, I want you to see not the result, but the process, I hope you can understand why I do it, don't always ask questions, try to think for yourself. The middle-aged man with blond hair said calmly, his dark brown eyes reflecting the blazing fire.
"Is it because of the deterioration of the relationship between His Highness Ye Bei and the Pope?" said after thinking for a while.
"Among the three princes, His Royal Highness Ye Bei is the illegitimate son of His Majesty, it stands to reason that he has no qualifications to inherit the throne at all, since he was born, no one has ever taken him in his eyes, the queen is mean, his brothers are bullied, and the ministers are cold-eyed, His Majesty turns a blind eye, but His Royal Highness Ye Bei never has a seizure, he endured it one by one in the face of humiliation, secretly cultivated his power, and encircled the major families, and when he first became a fledgling and emerged, the North Ye Kingdom became a complete hell for him, his brothers wanted to kill him, the queen wanted to kill him, and even those courtiers who supported the other two His Highnesses had to kill him, but he survived, do you know whyThe middle-aged man with blond hair stared intently at the flames that were gradually being extinguished by the heavy rain.
"Because his teacher is Huan, no one can kill his disciples in front of Huan, and no one is willing to blatantly offend Huan. Yaros said with a shrug.
"It is undeniable that Ye Bei did work hard to worship Yun as a teacher, in order to hope to protect himself with the help of the prestige of the human race, but as far as I know, Ye Bei has never protected Ye Bei even once, one of the reasons why Ye Bei survived is that he is talented, and Lingwu has succeeded in school, but the most important thing is that he is ruthless enough, his joys and sorrows are not shown in front of others, and he is suspicious and suspicious, even if it is a subordinate trained by his own hands, a person who is extremely smart and scheming, how can he die in the hands of those fools。 ”
The corners of the blonde man's mouth rose slightly, and the situation in the Northern Ye Kingdom gradually became clear, so he dared to say this kind of thing unscrupulously, His Royal Highness Ye Bei even dared to move the Old God Sect, but it is conceivable what kind of terrifying level his power has developed, and the trough is reluctant to pretend to be stupid, and when the edge is revealed, the shot will be thunderous, cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, this kind of person will not lose to those two fools.
"Just because he doesn't have the Pope's public support, he wants the Old God Cult to be wiped out?, Father, is such a cruel man really worthy of our allegiance?"
Alos looked at the church, which was burning more and more in the rain, and the crackling of the flames sounded to him like the most vicious curse in the world, and it made him uncomfortable.
"Although His Highness Ye Bei made a move against the Old God Sect, his original intention was to force the Pope to comply, not really to kill everything, but unfortunately, how can the world fulfill people's wishes, only with cruelty in his hands can he be qualified to be merciful. The blonde man said indifferently.
"Lord Logan, what are you going to do with a few imps you have caught?"
Three soldiers walked not far away, they were holding spears to drive away twenty children who were not yet ten years old, Yaros looked at his father with a gloomy face, his heart became more and more depressed, he involuntarily raised his voice and asked, "Father, what are you going to do?"
"Do you know these children, Lady Derene?"
Count Logan smiled and didn't answer, he turned to look at the woman behind him, she was wearing a nun's black robe, standing alone in the rain and shivering uncontrollably, looking at the church engulfed in flames with a dull expression, the soldiers around him were subconsciously far away from her, and the eyes cast from time to time were full of disgust, even if they all understood that if it wasn't for this woman betraying Lan, they would probably all die here.
Mother Teresa was surprised at first when she saw the group of children, but when she saw the frightened and miserable appearance of the children under the steel spear, she almost broke down and rushed towards Logan, the hysterical anger was despair, and even more dazed, the guards in front of Logan immediately stopped the mad woman, and the sword forged of steel stood in front of her, like an impassable moat.
"You promised me to let the children go!" Sister Teresa questioned Logan in a trembling voice, her hands clutching the blade in front of her, blood and rain dripping down like a stream.
"Oh, I...... No, I promised to save these children from Lan En so that they wouldn't die under the witchcraft, but I never said I'd let them go, you don't have to feel guilty, if you don't, you'll only kill more people, oh yes, you haven't told me who the person who taught Lan En the magic is, if you tell me, maybe I'll let these kids go. ”
"You're a liar! You're a complete liar! You're planning to kill everyone in the church! It's my fault, I should have trusted Lanne, I knew he wouldn't do it......"
Count Logan's smile was so hateful in Derean's eyes, but it was clearly in front of her, but she couldn't connect nearly half a step, she couldn't tell whether it was tears or rain, Mother Teresa fell to the ground, she obviously just wanted to protect these children, but why did this happen......
"Yaros, do you see? This is a living example, she regrets, regrets everything she did, she really feels that she has done wrong, but in fact, she doesn't know what is right and what is wrong, and the basis for her judgment of right and wrong depends entirely on her mood, as long as there is the slightest disappointment, she wants to go back in time and start all over again, so even if she does it again, she will still be wrong, and it will be more outrageous, this kind of person can be summed up in two words. Count Logan smiled at Arros.
"Idiot. Alos glanced at Mother Teresa in disgust.
"I'm sorry Lady Derene, but I don't have time to appreciate your self-pity, tell me, who is that man who taught Lann sorcery? Where is he? Of course, if you don't know, just go, while I haven't changed my mind. Logan shrugged his shoulders absently, he stepped past the protection of the guards, walked up to Mother Teresa and looked at her condescendingly, and the servant with the umbrella behind him hurriedly followed.
“......”
Mother Teresa opened her mouth but couldn't say anything, she also wanted to know who the person who instigated Lan En was, but that night she only heard the conversation in Lan En's house, the man's voice was very neutral, she couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, but she still remembered what Lan En said, "I will definitely make them pay, even if it goes to hell!"
She didn't dare to rush in to accuse Lan En, because she was too afraid that she quietly went back to the room, and the next day she pretended not to know anything, one was the church, Lan En's revenge, the other was the child's life, and it was the goodness she had always believed in, so she betrayed Lan En without hesitation and did what she thought was right, even if Lan En informed all the clergy and frequent believers as soon as she learned that someone was going to attack the church......
"It seems that you don't know, forget it, what can a mere spiritual priest change? Take them all back, and I'll give you a day to ask who their parents are and where their home is? Oh yes, if you have any suggestions or ideas, just ask them. ”
Before the words fell, the ablated church collapsed, and the flames that seemed to be extinguished rose into the sky again, and sparks flew everywhere, but after a while, it was completely drenched by the rain, and the surrounding soldiers hurriedly retreated, the pungent smoke was so smoky that it was difficult to disperse even if the wind and rain were blowing.
"The Old God Cult manipulates people's hearts with sophistry and vainly tries to promote the supremacy of theocracy, it is simply a cult, Lord Logan, the example of the Rising Sun Sect is still in front of us, we must not repeat the mistakes of the past, you don't need to worry, anyone in the town who has anything to do with the Old God Cult is at your disposal. ”
The mayor of the town looked righteous, after all, he learned the news of Ye Bei's friendship with the Pope from Rogan a few days ago, so he began to strictly prohibit people in the town from interacting with the church, he did this to protect the townspeople, and secondly, to show Logan.
"Lord Logan, I'...... I'm not against you, it's just that the people in our village have never seen the world, don't know what theocracy, what sophistry, and they send their children to the church because they don't have time to take care of ......."
The village chief nervously rubbed his calloused hands, he naturally couldn't say the same righteousness as the mayor, more than half of the villagers in Sweetwater Village were very busy during the day, so they would talk about the children sent to the church, this sentence is at your disposal, he really can't say it.
"Huh?"
Count Logan glanced at him, and the village chief swallowed his saliva involuntarily, forgetting all the words he had thought of, and said helplessly, "It's nothing......
"I'll send them to my family, don't worry, I never said I'm going to deal with them, the real executioner is not me, it's Lan, it's the Old God, what do you say?" Count Logan took the umbrella from the servant's hand, and walked unhurriedly past the village chief, his voice as calm as water was colder than the dark sky.
