Chapter 187: Chapel
The white stone brick house on the other side of the river turned out to be a small church.
Hao Ren took the kettle to the door of the white building. On the closed door, he saw the familiar Leta rune and a coat of arms consisting of circles, triangles and lightning. The latter is the world's glory. The sect's logo, when he heard Vivian's introduction to the fascinating sect, he learned about this mark and knew the meaning of each part of it: the circle represents the church's interpretation of the world, that is, everything is both perfect and chaotic, in the cycle. Forming a world, the triangle represents the authority of the goddess. It is located inside the circle. The three vertices support and determine the shape of the circle, which means that the power of the goddess determines the rules of the world. The lightning in the center of the pattern is the church. It is one of the vertices of the triangle, meaning that the authority of the church comes from the power of one third of God. This is a very interesting sect. They have precisely defined their own terms of reference, that is, "one-third of the divine right." Hao Ren is the first to hear that a sect of the sect will specifically indicate that he can only represent three. It's a god, so remember this point very clearly.
If you didn't see the mark at the door, Hao Ren really couldn't connect the little house to the church: it was too small, and it wasn't the characteristic spire building, and there were no gorgeous stained glass windows outside. And religious decoration, it seems that the church in the small village of the country can not be compared with the town, this should belong to the economical church.
The light that had just been shot at the river had disappeared. The chapel was dark, but Hao Ren remembered that the light was released from the round hole above the main entrance of the church. He let the data terminal float up and look at it. The small round hole is a decorative hole in the wall. It has direct access to the interior of the church and there are no fixtures installed.
It seemed that Guanghua had made a small meeting in the church when the light appeared. Just because it closed the door, the main window was on the side. Hao Ren did not find the strangeness in the church in the direction of Xiaohe.
Hao Ren put his hand on the church door and found it really motionless. He frowned. "The door is locked."
"Want to go in and see?" The data terminal floated next to Hao Ren and seemed to be very interested. Because now I have to do business, it is not playing with the mermaid for a while, Peas is honestly smashing into a group at the bottom of the pot: the scene of the horror in the river just made the little bit a little scared, she should be quite quiet in a short time. It is.
When I think of this little guy, the little guy is trying to make a splash in the torrent, Hao Ren really wants to laugh!
"You go in and set a standard, and then send me over." Hao Renzhen made a good idea: high-tech gadgets should be flexible. The data terminal's calibration transmission function is really a stealth miracle, no matter where the defense is strict, but there is a gap larger than the mouse hole Hao Ren can "sneak into"!
The data terminal was also nonsense. It floated into the round hole above the main entrance of the small church. After a while, Hao Ren was sent into the church without any sound or damage to the door.
There is no one in the church, the rectangular empty room is covered with a solemn dark red carpet, and there is no such thing as a seat: the Huiyao church is not set up as a believer like the church on earth. Hume and listening to the bench, because this sect preaches "human atonement." So even the Pope can't enjoy a seat in the church.
The tall preaching station not far from the front is the only furnishings in the room.
Hao Ren came to the preaching station and stepped over the four steps. He has noticed that the number of "four" seems to have special significance in this world. The kingdom of Holleta has four relics of the four holy places. The sacred jewels will stay on the blood lake for four days, and now the steps in front of the church evangelistic platform are exactly four levels. What does this mean? He has not heard of religious explanations related to it yet.
On the preaching platform is a black book that looks rather heavy. The deep black of the cover seems to be mixed with a little dark red that is extremely difficult to detect. Hao Ren opened the big book. It was just a very common "Bible."
He opened the chapter about the goddess' merits. It narrates the empty and boring story in his grammatical way: "...the heavens and the earth begin to open. He sleeps in the heavens and the earth, and there is spirit and inanimateness. The mortal can't interpret... He is the original water, the original sea, the original source, the original storm, the thunder, the birth and the place of the promise... Because it is the mother of all kinds of life, it is regarded as the goddess... He is the embodiment Tens of thousands of people exist in the stars, and he sculptures the world, sowing hundreds of millions of mortals like dust and ants. This is his authority and compassion..."
"Half do not understand." Hao Ren looked for a long time and felt that he had no way to go, so he turned to the back of the Bible. This time it was the chapter of the goddess' destruction. "...the mortal pursues the truth and goes astray, facing the warning of God. Without repentance, there are ancient wolves, blood races, elves, and human beings. They want to take the sea of origin to be their own back garden, so God is angry and says: 'It is a big mistake to make you spiritual. If you have to correct it, you will burn out the old world. But there are sages of all ethnic groups who bow down...so everything is able to survive."
Hao Ren looked at it for a long time and felt that he could not understand it.
However, after a few more rounds, he summed up one point: although this glory sect respects a clear deity, it seems that their teachings never mention the image of this god.
The passages mentioned in the Holy Scriptures all describe the gods with ambiguous sentences such as "origin of origin" or "original xx". They have never clearly or vaguely pointed out how the gods are like other belief systems. The appearance is whether it is a double-winged or a tall one. Whether it is full of light or majesty, these elements are not involved in this religious reading. The goddess seems to have no entity, even a fuzzy abstract image description. None, this gives the impression that the Shining sect is worshipping a symbolic thing.
Although he is called the "goddess", what Hao Ren sees from the Holy Scriptures seems to be a natural phenomenon.
What they are worshiping is a certain phenomenon of "creating everything in the world" itself.
"They think of the gods very interesting," Hao Ren couldn't help but think of the Raven 12345, then shook his head hard. "There is no comparability."
"Where did the light came from?" Putting down the holy scripture, Hao Ren looked around curiously at the empty chapel, which was everywhere, but did not find anything that could be called a light source. He turned back and looked at the mural behind the preaching platform. It is reasonable to say that this position of the church should be placed with a statue or other religious symbol, but the Huiyao sect placed behind the preaching desk with a pair of distorted shadows and red fog. The weird picture of the light, do not know whether other churches are the same, anyway, Hao Ren feels that this small church is quite weird.
After searching for a long time, I still found nothing. I remembered that others were still waiting for myself at the head of the village. Hao Ren could only give up the exploration here and hurried back to the village of the mountain people.
The chapel was once again in the darkness, only the twin moonlight slanted into the room from the stained glass window, and a moonlight fell on the strange mural behind the preaching platform. The moonlight shone, the twilight on the mural Black and red continue to swell up at a speed that is almost invisible to the naked eye.
Between the black and red strips, the bright shades of light are a little darker than before.
Hao Rengang greeted him as soon as he returned to the house: "Where have you been, don't come back for so long... How much is your pants?"
He hadn't had time to explain it, and Lily groaned over it: "Yeah! You landed in the landlord?"
Hao Ren’s stomach made the siberian hustle smothered. The first time he couldn’t help himself, he rushed to pinch Lily’s ear and pulled it to the sides: “You can’t live your mind when you speak! You can’t live your brain!!”
Lily’s painful squat jumped down and screamed: “Oh, oh, it hurts... I’m wrong, I’m wrong... I forgot that people shouldn’t be able to urinate so much all day...”
Hao Ren: "..."
He threw the incomprehensible huskies aside: "I just went to the river to wash my hands and accidentally slipped my feet. Is it a small church on the other side of the river?"
He casually mentioned the church on the other side of the river, but did not say the strangeness of the church and the way he went in and inquired.
"Oh, that was the construction of the priest of Lumber," the village chief did not suspect him. "Oh, the mountain people believe in the spirit of the forest, but they do not contradict the glory. The pastor will come to the church every month. Sermons, and then help the village people to see a doctor, but the church is closed. You are a believer? If you want to go in and pray, I have a key here, but I have to do it tomorrow."
There are two rounds of bright moonlight over this land. The larger moon is called "the main moon", and it is also called the big moon or the big moon. The smaller moon is called "the next month", and the next month's round cycle is ten. Seven days, it happens to be half of the main month's lack of cycles. Many religious activities of the Huiyao sect are linked to the main month and the next month's vacancy cycle. The full moon next month is one of the more meaningful days.
"Amount, no, I just asked, I didn't expect there would be a church here." Hao Ren smiled and waved his hand, showing no abnormal expression at all.
"Hah - I am sleepy," Becky yawned at this time. "The village chief arranged for us to rest in the two houses next to it. The girls would squeeze it. You two great men can A little bit of light."
Hao Ren thought for a moment and felt that the sects of the glory of the world could not run in this world. There are many opportunities to explore the mysteries of this world myth, so I will temporarily let go of this matter and find myself under Becky’s instructions. Room, recharge your batteries and prepare to continue on the road tomorrow. (To be continued.)
