The Record of Unusual Creatures Chapter 187: Little church

Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!

The white stone brick house on the other side of the river turned out to be a small church.

Hao Ren came to the door of this white building with a water bottle. On the closed door, he saw the familiar Leta runes and a coat of arms composed of circles, triangles, and lightning. The latter is the world. The symbol of the radiant sect, he knew this symbol when he heard the Vivian introduction to the sect of the radiant sect, and knew the meaning of each part of it: the circle represents the church ’s interpretation of the world, that is, everything belongs to perfection and chaos, 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 located in the center of the pattern is the church. Its top It is one of the vertices of the triangle, which means that the authority of the church comes from the blessing of one third of the power of God. This is a very interesting denomination. They precisely delineated their terms of reference, that is, "one-third of the theocracy". This is the first time that Hao Ren has heard that any priest of the denomination will specifically indicate that he can only represent three points. One of the gods, so I remember this very clearly.

If you do n’t see this mark at the door, Hao Ren really ca n’t connect this small house to the church: it ’s too small, and it ’s not the kind of characteristic spire building, and you ca n’t see the gorgeous colors outside. With glass windows and religious decorations, it seems that churches in small villages in the countryside cannot be compared with those in towns. This should be an economical church.

The light that had just hit the river has disappeared, and the small church was almost black, but Hao Ren remembered that the light came from the round hole above the main entrance of the church. He let ASanbaA float up and take a look Make sure that this small round hole is a decorative hole in the wall, which can directly lead to the interior of the church, and there are no lamps installed in it.

When the light appeared, Guanghua seemed to have made a brief moment in the church, only because its door was closed and the main window was on the side. Hao Ren did n’t find the abnormality in the church from the direction of Xiaohe for the first time.

Hao Ren put his hand on the door of the church, and gently pushed it to find that it did not move, he frowned: "The door is locked."

"Want to go in and see?" ASanbaA fluttered beside Hao Ren. It seems to be very interested. Because it has to do business right now, it is not playing with the little mermaid for a while. Lil Pea is now honestly curled up in a pot at the bottom of the pot: the scene of the horror in the river just a little surprised her, and she should be quite quiet in a short time .

Sometimes I think of the scene where the little guy thumped on the spot in the rapids with the power of feeding. Hao Ren really wanted to laugh!

"You go in and set a standard, and then send me over." Hao Ren figured out a good idea: high-tech gadgets should really be used flexibly. ASanbaA's standard transfer function is really a sneaky miracle. No matter where the defense is tight, wherever there is a gap larger than the mouse hole, Hao Ren can "sneak in"!

ASanbaA is no nonsense. From the round hole above the main entrance of the chapel, I floated into it, and after a while I sent Hao Ren into the church without making any noise or damaging the gate.

There is no one in the church. The rectangular empty room is covered with solemn dark red carpet, and there is no such thing as seats: the church of the Huiyao sect is not set up like the church on earth. There are benches for believers to rest and listen, because this sect preaches "human atonement", so even the pope cannot enjoy seats in the church.

The high preaching station not far in front is the only display in the room.

Hao Ren came to the preaching stage and raised his legs step by step through the four steps. He has noticed that the number "four" seems to have a special meaning in this world. There are four relics and four relics in Kingdom of Holletta . Orb of the Holy Synod will stay on blood lake for four days, and now the steps in front of the church evangelistic platform are exactly four steps. What does this mean? He has not heard of any religious explanations related to it.

A large black book that looks quite heavy is placed on the sermon. The deep black of the cover seems to be mixed with a little dark red that is extremely imperceptible. Hao Ren opened the big book and found that it was just a book. Very ordinary "Bible".

He just opened a chapter about the merits of the goddess. The grammatically obscure way of telling a story that seemed empty and uninteresting to him: "... The heavens and the earth opened at the beginning, he slept between the heavens and the earth. , The supreme existence. The mortal cannot interpret ... He is the first water, the first sea, the first source, the first storm thunder. The place where life is born and promised ... because it is the mother of all kinds of life, it is regarded as a goddess ... … He has millions of incarnations, exists among the stars, he sculpts the world, sows hundreds of millions of mortals like dust ants, this is his authority and compassion ... "

"I don't understand it." Hao Ren looked at it for a long time and felt it was not essential. So he lazily turned to the back of the Bible, this time it was the chapter of the goddess of destruction: "... mortals pursue the truth and go astray, face the warning of God without repentance, and there are the ancient Werewolf, Blood Clan, elves, human four families Wang Kuang was absurd and wanted to seize the sea of ​​origin as his back garden, so the **** was furious and said, 'It is a big mistake to make you spiritual, you must be corrected', and you burned out the old world. But there are various races. The sage bowed down ... so everything could breathe. "

Hao Ren looked at it for a long time, and I felt even more incomprehensible.

However, after turning a few times, he summed up one point: Although this radiant sect respects a definite deity, their doctrine never seems to mention the image of this deity.

The passages in this holy scripture that mention the goddess all use vague sentences such as "place of origin" or "initial XX" to describe the deity, which has never been clearly or vaguely pointed out like other belief systems. What kind of appearance does the deity have, whether it is with wings or height, whether it is covered with holy light or decency, these elements are not involved in this religious reading at all. The goddess seems to have no substance, even vague abstraction There is no description of the image, which gives the impression that the Shining Sect is worshipping a symbolic thing.

Although he is called the "goddess", what Hao Ren sees from the scriptures seems to be a natural phenomenon.

What they worship is a "phenomenon that creates everything in the world" itself.

"Their views on the gods are quite interesting," Hao Ren couldn't help but think of Raven 12345, then shook his head vigorously, "There is no comparison at all."

"Where did the light come from just now?" Putting down the holy scripture, Hao Ren looked curiously at this empty, clear-cut chapel everywhere, but found nothing that could be called a light source. He turned around and looked at the mural behind the preaching platform. It stands to reason that this place of the church should be placed with idols or other religious symbols, but the Huiyao sect placed a twisted black shadow and red fog behind the preaching platform. , The weird picture composed by the light, I do n’t know if other churches are the same, anyway, Hao Ren feels that this little church is very strange.

Having found nothing for half a day after looking everywhere, remembering that other people are still waiting for themselves at the village chief ’s house, Hao Ren can only give up the exploration here and hurriedly returned to the village of the mountain people.

The chapel is once again in darkness. Only the dim double moonlight illuminates the room diagonally from the stained glass window, and a moonlight is placed on the fresco mural behind the preacher ’s platform, and the moonlight is shining. The twisted grotesque blacks and reds continue to rise slowly at an almost imperceptible speed.

And between the black and red bands, the bright tones that represent the light are a bit darker than before.

As soon as Hao Ren returned to the house, Vivian greeted him: "Where have you been for so long and you will not come back ... um, what's wrong with your pants?"

He did n’t have time to explain, Lily jumped up and jumped: "Yeah! Landlord are you diarrhea?"

Hao Ren's full stomach made this husky pierce the smoke, and he rushed up uncontrollably for the first time and pinched Lily's ears to the sides: "You can't pass your mind when you talk! ! "

Lily jumped up and down painfully, yelling miserably: "Eh, ah, ache, pain, pain ... I was wrong, I was wrong ... I forgot that people should not be able to urinate so much all day ..."

Hao Ren: "..."

He tossed the irreparable husky aside: "I went to the river to wash my hands and accidentally slipped my foot. Is that a small church across the river?"

He casually mentioned the church on the other side of the river, but he didn't say anything about the church's shape and the way he went in to explore.

"Oh, that was built by Mr. Lembert ’s pastor," the village chief doubted him, "Hehe, the mountain people believe in the spirit of the forest, but they do n’t resist the Huiyao sect. Mr. Pastor every month I will come to the church to preach and then help the village people to see a doctor, but the church is usually closed. Are you a believer? If you want to go in and pray, I have the key here, but it will be tomorrow. "

There are two bright moons shining over this piece of land. The bigger moon is called the "main moon", and there are also commonly known as the big moon or the big moon, and the smaller moon is called the "second moon", the lack of the next month The period is seventeen days, which is exactly half of the cycle of the main moon. The many religious activities of the Huiyao sect are linked to the cycle of the lack of the main month and the next month. The full moon of the next month is one of the more meaningful days.

"Uh, no, I asked casually, I didn't expect there will be a church here." Hao Ren smiled and waved his hand, showing no unusual expression at all.

"Hah-I am sleepy," Becky yawned at this time, "The village head arranged for us to rest in the next two rooms, the girls would squeeze a bit, you two masters We do n’t have much light. ”

Hao Ren thought for a while, and felt that the Shinyao sect ca n’t run in this world anyway. There are many opportunities to explore the mysteries of this world ’s myth, so I temporarily put this matter down and found the genre under the guidance of Becky. In his own room, he is prepared to continue his journey tomorrow. (To be continued.)
