Celestial night

Chapter 13 Page 3

They quickly made plans to go to church.

The desperate people in the city were looking for spiritual sustenance, and people rushed to the church in an attempt to find God's protection and spiritual relief.People think that the Lord is immortal, and devout people go to church to pray in groups or sporadically.

When they arrived at the church, they didn't expect that there would be a long queue at the gate of the church, all of them were civilians, and they didn't know how long they had been praying at the gate.But they were all turned away, and they had to pay a sufficient amount of money before they could be put in.There were even pregnant women kneeling at the door, alone and penniless.They have nothing left, no money, no food, no family, all alone, outcasts.

The devil thought of the absurd atonement rolls on the street, all the crimes were listed in thick dictionaries with clearly marked prices, and during this period, the atonement rolls were sold for three times the price.As long as the money for buying indulgences hits the cash drawer, the sinner's soul can immediately ascend from purgatory to heaven, avoiding all diseases and disasters.

The church earns real hard-earned money, and there are endless tricks to collect money.There was even a future redemption scroll, a redemption scroll bought for dead family members and friends.Even so, everyone was willing to buy it with gold coins and silver coins at the beginning, and gradually turned into metal. In the end, even the clothes on the body and the little food left were exchanged for one, which is enough to make people lose their fortunes. Many people still flock to it, like a fantasy of immortality, a ticket to heaven.

All the poor are praying, and there is only one step away from the door. As long as the door of the church is opened, they can go to the Holy Land like the nobles.

The priest said nothing the whole time.

With the status of priests and the gold coins on the previous carriage, they entered the church smoothly.Without the slightest hesitation, the prince cooperated with Morgana outside and opened the door of the church.

The magnificent scene in front of him was so shocking that he was speechless.

The nobles ate exquisite food, drank fine wine, surrounded by clouds of beauties to indulge in joy, drank and sang, indulged day and night, all the tables were filled with food, redemption rolls were everywhere, even in critical moments they still Such extravagance and waste, some food even spilled on the ground they don't care.

This is the so-called church sanctuary.

The so-called heaven redemption volume is simply a blank sheet of paper, and everyone is nothing but ants in the eyes of the church.Buried under the ancient and beautiful soil of Kamal is countless dirt and filth.Intricate political system, multiple authorities intertwined.

All believe that the divine right of kings is the will of the Lord.

The kingship of the country is limited by two kinds: nobles and priests.Among them, priests are the most powerful.The king is the spokesman of the Lord, whose authority is delegated by the Lord, whose representatives are the priests.In the eyes of the people, if the ruler does not receive the crown from the priest, he cannot be called righteous.The church gains wealth from the Lord, gains power because of wealth, and becomes a privileged class in society.

The religious power overrides the supremacy of the royal power and becomes the arbiter of the country.

Under the slogan that people must suffer the pain of death, just as they suffer the pain of birth, the church blames people's original sin and explains all suffering.

When the aristocrats were still intoxicated, the people outside were precarious and hopeless, they were nameless people.Angry people rushed in and snatched what was supposed to be theirs, money, food, everything.The prince and Morgana cooperated internally and externally, and took advantage of the chaos to transport the food out smoothly.

The priest had collapsed to the ground, and the faith in his heart had collapsed.The priest's pupils vibrated, as if something that had been concealed for many years collapsed in front of it, revealing the bloody and hideous reality. He was just avoiding and choosing to turn a blind eye.

The prince looked at this scene mockingly, and asked the priest softly.

"If you ask the church master why he doesn't strike sinners with lightning." The prince's smile was full of malice.

"They will say that the Lord does not want sinners to die, but would rather let them live to pay." The prince's mouth highlighted the cruel truth.

The prince said to the priest: "Maybe the Lord loves the world, but the church is just a money-gathering institution with hidden activities."

The affairs of the church were quickly exposed, like the last layer of fig leaf, which was ruthlessly pulled down, leaving only old dirt.It was realized that the church was useless to prevent the spread of disease and that the church only served the nobility.

The heart is in turmoil, something in my heart begins to shake, there is some commotion in the inner circle, it seems that something has broken out of the ground faintly, and rumors are everywhere.

People say that the church can't save people at all, everything is fake, and the redemption scroll is a joke.

In the church, the disappearing carriage and the faint turmoil in the inner circle soon spread to the ears of the temple priest, who gave orders to the church.

“Heretics are thorns in the truth, against the will of our Lord, and must be killed.”

The moon is dark and the wind is high, the night is a day of murder and arson.

The mansion was in chaos, and by the time the devil realized, the assassins had already surrounded the prince and the others.They are coming for the prince!

This is the assassin who taught Gu!The scene was chaotic for a while, but it was quickly suppressed by them.

As soon as the devil breathed a sigh of relief, he saw a dagger directed at the prince.The demon's body moved first.The prince heard a "puchi", his eyes turned red, and finally killed the assassin.

Blood dripped down the demon's arm, and the white robe was stained red with blood, which was shocking.Morgana saw it and frantically went to find a bandage.

The prince pinched the devil's arm tightly to stop the bleeding, and took a bandage to help the devil treat the wound carefully. The prince's face was tense, his whole body was full of hostility, his eyes were extremely fierce, but his movements were very gentle. Everyone retreated silently.

The devil looked at the prince, sighed, and stroked the prince's hair.

"Actually, the injury is not serious, but it looks a bit scary." The devil said.

"And it will be all right soon."

The prince frowned, and the devil was slammed against the wall. The cold wall hit his shoulder blades, and his whole back hurt.

The wall next to it was smashed into a small hole by the prince, and the devil was blocked by the prince on the wall, looking down at him, and hugging his waist, no doubt about it.

The prince buried his head in his neck, feeling the beating of his pulse.The devil's ear was breathing heavily, and the prince's forehead was against his, and the breath was exchanging with each other.

"Does it hurt?" the prince asked

"It doesn't hurt much," said the demon.There were some tears in the wound again, and the blood seeped through the gauze.

This time is not like last time, the distance between them is closer, physical wounds and mental tension, all senses seem to be developed to the extreme, every friction of the robes makes the devil a little bit unable to parry.

How could it not hurt.

"You liar," said the prince.

The prince's tense body suddenly let go of him, and the corner of his mouth seemed to rub against his.I didn't react, the prince has already left, I will let others change the medicine for you.

The demon took a deep breath and sat down slowly along the wall.He has a sense of powerlessness.This feeling has intensified since I came out of the desert, as if something has gone off track.

Worried about the devil's injury, the prince burned his feathers just in case and called the poet over.The poet looks at the demon intact.The demon looked at the only feather left on the poet's head, ready to move.

The devil has been healed for a long time, but the prince still won't let him go out.The prince entered the room.The female slave looked at the expression in the prince's eyes, and then at the ignorant devil, as if she had discovered some big secret. The prince made a shh gesture to her, and the female slave suddenly blushed and ran out quickly. Forget to take it to the door.

The demon looked at the prince suspiciously.The prince looked at him with a smile without explaining.

The devil finally compromised.

"The poet is gone?" the devil asked

"Yeah," the prince replied

"I'm ready." The demon hinted at the prince.

The prince raised an eyebrow.

"So." said the prince

"These can't hurt me." said the demon

This time, it was obviously someone from the church. This was the church's blow to him. All those who challenged the church's status must disappear, and they would not let it go.

"Well, I know." The prince nodded.

"They can't live that long." There was no smile in the prince's eyes.

The demon sensed the prince's emotions.

"You know I'm different from others." The demon continued with a sigh.

The smile in the prince's eyes disappeared completely, as if holding back something.

"It's because it's different." That's why I'm afraid.

The prince remembered what the poet had said to him before he left.

"Your Majesty, I am here to give you the last prophecy. You have received the blessing of the angel. Not only will pain and disease not come close to you, but you will also live a long life, but..." the poet turned around, tactful opening

"You will die alone," said the poet.

"And him?" the prince pointed to the demon in the distance.

The poet shook his head regretfully.

The prince came back to his senses and looked at the devil deeply, as if he wanted to describe it to death.

"What about you?" the prince asked.

The devil heard a sentence unexpectedly.

"You said they would all be by my side to help me, what about you?" said the prince.

The poet said that the demon god is immortal, so will you stay by my side until my death?

The devil felt that the prince's hands were shaking a little, as if restraining something.

"I will always be by your side." said the demon.

As if he couldn't bear it anymore, the prince held the devil's hand and kissed him deeply.

The prince made a third wish to the demon.

"You can't die one second later than me," said the prince.

The devil looked at the prince, only seeing the moonlight casting light and shadow in his eyes.

A golden light filled all the hexagrams on Solomon's ring, and God validated the wish.

This prophecy will not be fulfilled.The prince raised his eyes and said to the devil with a smile.

"Prove it to me with your oath, Bai Dulun."

The author has something to say:

As we all know, this is a little sweet article about serious love.A certain white is afraid that there will be no interrogation later.

It’s time to popularize science again~ The prototype of the city of Kamal is a Greek city-state. Athens is on the verge of the Aegean Sea, and the sea transportation is convenient.Merchants here can sail far to Egypt and other places, and commercial trade makes the city-state prosperous.On the one hand, the democratic system in Athens is amazing, and on the other hand, slavery coexists with the democratic system.At the same time the democracy was tightly restricted to male citizens of Athens so women, slaves and foreigners had no right to vote.The huge gap between the rich and the poor coupled with the rise of handicraft merchants has led to class contradictions among the people.
