Seeing that Terence became serious, Shang Jianyao no longer "haha", and asked seriously:
"What sect are you from?"
"The 'Beyond Spirituality' Order." Terence said with a reverent look.
Jiang Baimian couldn't help but join the discussion:
"You disagree with the 'Sacred Desire' sect, uh, what misinterpretation of the old age teachings did they make?"
The latter half of the sentence made Terrence feel relieved, showing a slight smile:
"We all believe that everyone has a spirituality that transcends everything, that's an innate light that lurks deep in our hearts."
"Is this the gift of the 'Mandala' of Zhisui?" Jiang Baimian had seen some descriptions of the teachings of the "Sacred Desire" sect in the materials provided by the company, but they were not so detailed, and there was no such thing in those materials." An introduction to Beyond Spirituality.
"No." Terence shook his head.
He said solemnly and reverently:
"God is the spirituality that transcends everything. God is called 'Mandala'. God is in each of us."
"Aren't we born to be believers of 'Mandala'?" Shang Jianyao made a fuss.
Terrence nodded in relief and replied with the teachings just now:
"God is in each of us."
"God is in the heart of each of us." Shang Jianyao responded without looking at all.
Then, he asked expectantly:
"Does your sect have no way of praying or salute?"
He reinforced his tone with a gesture.
No congratulations are complete without prayer gestures!
Terrence laughed, raised his right hand, and gently stroked his lips with his index and middle fingers.
After stroking, he opened his mouth and blessed:
"May your spirituality transcend all things."
"May your spirituality surpass everything." Shang Jianyao followed suit.
It seems to have the taste of "Lord of Desire" and "Mandala" believers... Jiang Baimian muttered silently.
Terence then laughed:
"This is actually a gesture of prayer, and it is also used in front of people who are not familiar with it. Hehe, although we are very familiar with it, you are not members of our sect.
"We salute each other by kissing each other on the cheek, which is also a form of etiquette in the old world."
I'm really not used to it... Jiang Baimian brought the topic back to the right track:
"Go on."
The bloated Terrence took out a small item wrapped in tinfoil from his pocket and slowly unfolded it.
Inside is a dark brown chocolate.
Putting the chocolate in his mouth, after chewing and swallowing it, Terrence closed his eyes and said very relaxedly:
"Everyone has a spirituality that transcends everything, but it's hard to feel Him and see Him, because we are always surrounded by various desires, the desire for food, the desire to go to bed with the 'prey', the desire to compare, the desire to enjoy Desire, desire to communicate, desire to be lazy, desire to pursue mental stimulation, etc., etc.
"These desires blind our eyes and envelop our hearts, preventing us from seeing and feeling the transcendent spirituality within us..."
When he was telling the teachings, because his eyes were half closed, he seemed to be feeling the spirituality that transcended everything, so he didn't notice Shang Jianyao's lost expression.
Shang Jianyao looked at the tin foil carrying the chocolate, and withdrew his gaze regretfully.
Jiang Baimian tentatively asked:
"So, you need to restrain these desires and let the spirituality beyond everything emerge from the bottom of your heart?"
To be honest, she felt that this should not be the concept of the "Beyond Spirituality" sect. After all, Terence's figure and the performance just now showed that he was not a person who restrained his desires.
"No." Terrence smiled and opened his eyes, "That's the wrong perception of a heretic sect. They call it a 'return sect' and are active in other places. Madam, don't restrain yourself, desire cannot be eliminated, only vent."
He carefully explained the concept of the "Beyond Spirituality" order:
"Desires cannot be eliminated. As long as you are alive and have not become a vegetative person, desires will inevitably arise.
"We can't be afraid of it, we must learn to recognize it correctly and deal with it. Think about it, every time you have sex, will you enter a wonderful state, where your body and mind are peaceful, your mind is clear, and you are no longer distracted by each other. Are you troubled by desires and feel disconnected from reality?"
Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian were taken aback for a moment.
They didn't answer, and couldn't answer, and their expressions were quite the same.
Terence didn't even think about asking them to tell him the answer to this question, and said to himself:
"That shows that you are close to transcendent spirituality. In some old world texts, this is called 'sage time'. The name of my awakening ability is also called this, which shows that it has been approved by the gods.
"Sage, you can tell from the name that he is very powerful. He is a person who can feel the true spirituality. From this perspective, we have a way of how to see and how to tap the inner spirituality. That is to indulge our desires and vent them one by one. Then, in the ultimate detachment in the ultimate calm, to feel, to find.
"Our way of praying is to indulge our desires at that moment. If you want to have sex, you will find someone to sleep with. If you want to smoke, you will have a pack. If you want to drink, let yourself have a good meal. If you want to eat sweets, don't think This will damage the body, those who want to eat meat, try their best to satisfy their needs, and those who want to beat someone, don’t hesitate to shoot…”
This might lead to sudden death... or being beaten to death... Jiang Baimian was too full of words to say.
She turned to ask:
"What does the 'Holy Desire' sect think?"
Terence's expression became serious again:
"They actually think that all kinds of desires and spirituality that transcend everything are inseparable, that you have me, I have you, and it is the other side of the gods.
"how can that be
"So, they believe that as long as all kinds of desires are burned and boiled, they can feel and grasp the spirituality that transcends everything."
Jiang Baimian suddenly realized:
"In other words, do you think that desire is an obstacle to seeing your own spirituality, and that venting is the most reasonable and effective method, and they think desire is also sacred?"
"Yes." Terrence said in a deep voice, "They are blaspheming the gods."
If this is blasphemy, in the case that Zhi Sui does exist, they are not destroyed, it means that "Mandala" still recognizes their ideas to a certain extent, or does not care about these inexplicable things at all... Jiang Baimian in his heart responded.
Seeing that Terence had finished speaking, Shang Jianyao couldn't wait to ask:
"What is your sacrament?"
Terence laughed:
"It's something that can satisfy a certain desire or addiction, such as coffee, such as red wine, such as a special drink left over from the old world, and now only a few factories can still produce it."
During the conversation, Terrence stood up, walked to an old-world style but relatively new refrigerator in the living room, opened the upper door, and took out two bottles of dark liquid.
Then, he used the utensils to get some ice cubes from the freezer below.
He quickly sat back across from the coffee table and asked Auger to bring three glasses from the kitchen.
With the sound of puff, Terence pried open the lids of the two black drinks and poured the liquid inside into the water glasses.
The rumbling movement continued, and the black drink in the cup continued to bubble up with coffee-colored bubbles.
The last step is to put the ice cubes in and let them soak into the liquid.
Raising his right hand, he gently stroked his lips with his index finger and middle finger for a while. After completing his prayer, Terence picked up a cup and paid homage to Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian:
"You can drink."
He immediately raised his head slightly, and Gulu drank the black drink from the cup with a contented expression on his face.
Shang Jianyao responded without hesitation, and then took a big mouthful of the ice-filled liquid.
After a few seconds, he lowered the cup that was only half-full, looked at the beverage bottle on the table, and nodded sincerely:
"Your sect is very good."
Isn't this a cola... Although Jiang Baimian had never eaten pork, he had seen a pig walk, so he controlled his expression and took a sip of his drink.
The refreshing feeling, the unique taste, made her quite satisfied.
After sharing the sacrament, Terence raised a question:
"Why did you just guess that I'm from the 'Sacred Desire' sect? Have you contacted them before?"
"Yes." Jiang Baimian replied calmly, "Our friend in Weed City was tricked by a woman named Christina. She is suspected of being a member of the 'Holy Desire' sect."
"The Hunter Guild?" Terrence suddenly realized, "She is a relatively active suspect. Don't be in a hurry to get revenge on her, the 'Sacred Desire' sect has a deep relationship at the top."
"Is that so..." Jiang Baimian didn't expect to get such an unexpected piece of information.
After dealing with the people around Terence and confirming that the "reasoning clown" can make circular arguments for a period of time, Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian took Auger out of No. 25 Stern Street and boarded their own jeep.
"The first city really has many awakened people, and various religious organizations can be seen everywhere, either open or dark." Jiang Baimian sighed while driving, "This also indirectly shows how strong the 'first city' is, and it can actually suppress I survived the situation, and I haven't caused any major trouble in the city for so many years."
Shang Jianyao looked at the road ahead and sighed:
"Now Xiaohong is here..."
"Don't be old black and red!" Jiang Baimian smiled.
…
In the first city, in the hall of the Hunter Guild.
Bai Chen, Long Yuehong, and Genova, who didn't hear from Han Wanggao, returned here from the second floor.
Suddenly, Long Yuehong pointed to a place and said:
"That, is that the former vice president of the Weed City Hunters Guild, called Christina?"
Bai Chen and Genova followed his gaze and saw a woman in her thirties with blonde hair and blue eyes.
Aside from the rough skin and slightly larger pores, the woman in the white shirt and blue denim trousers is really very tasteful, the kind that is directly reminiscent of a bed.
She was the former vice president of the Weed City Hunters Guild, Christina.
