"It's just in time, please help me draw." The prophet did not feel ashamed at all, but asked for help frankly.
Qi Le people are caught in all sorts of entanglements, how can we help? Go over and pick up the eyeliner and help him draw the inner eyeliner? Wouldn't Ning Zhou have a strange opinion of him if he was so proficient? ! No, this is not helpful!
Qi Leren, who had made up his mind, pretended to be looking at the scenery, while the illusionist on the side had already walked over, and generally picked up the eyeliner and said in disgust: "How many times have I taught you, can you grow up as a teacher? I'm almost done seeing Si Lin."
"..." Si Lin's expression at this moment seemed to want to explain that he didn't have such a habit, but seeing his long black hair that was left behind by the teacher's request, he didn't speak in the end.
"I'm afraid I'll poke my eyes," said the Prophet.
"Even if you poke your eyeballs, they can still grow well, so why worry?" said the illusionist.
"Hiss... don't talk, your eyes hurt." The prophet covered his eyes and grinned.
The illusionist painted his eyeliner, and the Prophet was free, glanced at Qi Leren and Ning Zhou from the corner of his eye, and said with a smile, "Isn't this mission rewarding?"
"Hmm..." Qi Leren replied hesitantly.
"Okay." The illusionist covered the eyeliner, held the prophet's face and looked at it, "Okay, I think it's okay."
"Thanks." The Prophet picked up the mirror and took a good look, and asked the illusionist, "Miss, what do you think of me?"
"I think you are perverted, teacher." The illusionist said coldly.
Qi Leren was speechless watching from the sidelines, why did you two transvestites hurt each other
The Prophet didn't care about the illusionist's ridicule at all, he put down the mirror and said to several people: "I have something to talk to you, especially you, Qi Le people."
As he spoke, the Prophet snapped his fingers, and the surrounding environment changed instantly, from a pink room to a sandy beach on the coast of Twilight Township. The Prophet, who had returned to normal clothes, was sitting on a bench by the sea, standing blankly on the beach. The Qi Le people on the board waved.
"Where are the others?" Qi Leren looked around and found that Ning Zhou was gone, and so were the others. Only he and the Prophet were on this peaceful beach.
"Let's talk separately, come, sit here." The prophet patted the empty half of the bench.
Qi Leren walked over and sat down beside the Prophet. The two sat side by side, watching the never-ending sunset in the distance.
"You have been in the nightmare world for a while, and now you have some understanding of the forces of the devil and the Holy See, right? What do you think of the camp?" asked the prophet.
This question is very complicated, and the people of Qi Le didn't have time to think too much, so they just said based on their feelings: "I don't think you can simply use the camp to distinguish a person, just like Ning Zhou, although he has now awakened the blood of the devil, but I believe him Will not do anything to harm innocent people.”
The Prophet smiled: "Then what if he did?"
Qi Le was dumbfounded.
"The trust you gave him and the pressure he put on himself are two sharp weapons to torture him. You are all trying to endure, but there is a limit to what you can endure. Leren, you will face this day sooner or later. What is your choice? ’ the Prophet asked softly.
"Is there no way?" Qi Leren's heart throbbed, and he asked in anger and despair, "Ning Zhou did nothing wrong? But why is it him? He is so good, so kind , so pious, he almost died in the lake of fire, just not to hurt this world! Is there no way to keep him alive?"
"He is inseparable from the fate of this world, and so are you. Le Ren, when you ask 'why is it him', I also want to ask you, why can't it be him? When fate befalls a person, you Call this torture, but fate has no intention of torturing anyone, it just... chooses the only hope among the billions of roads leading to despair. Have you ever thought that this may already be the most gentle "torture"? "The prophet looked at the sunset and asked softly.
Qi Le was stunned, half understanding.
"Do you know the 'original sin' in the teachings of the Holy See?" asked the Prophet.
Qi Leren nodded.
"On this point, the teachings of the Holy See and Christianity in the real world are very similar. Christianity believes that Adam and Eve were lured by snakes and ate the forbidden fruit. This crime atones, because of this original sin, man and God will never be able to communicate." The prophet moved his finger, and a bright red apple appeared in his hand, he lifted the apple and overlapped it with the sunset in his vision .
"There is also a story in the "Teaching Book". The gods from outside sowed the seeds, and only one of them gave birth to the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, birds, animals, and humans. God created humans with his own appearance and talents. , However, this kind of divine favor breeds the greed of human beings. Human beings deceived God, tried to defeat God in vain, and were finally punished by God. The sins of deception, greed, and rebellion have been engraved on human beings since then, from generation to generation. According to legend, it taught human beings to restrain their desires, and to atone for sins by doing good deeds, in order to gain God’s favor again.” The apple in the prophet’s hand disappeared, replaced by a small ball of light, and he looked at the light gently, It's like looking at your own child.
Qi Leren nodded: "I have read the scriptures and heard about this story."
"Actually, among the demons, there is another version of this Genesis story." The prophet said.
This Qi Le man didn't know, he asked curiously: "What version?"
"That overreaching human deceived God and killed God. The crime of killing God has been imprinted on human beings since then, but the rights and glory brought by killing God have also been imprinted on human beings. The human beings with the blood of the gods have fallen into demons, and they are in charge of this world—you see, the gods have never appeared again, because they have long since died. Therefore, compared with human beings, demons are more greedy and arrogant, and they follow their own desires Acting, redemption is nonsense for them, what they have to do is to become stronger in the blood and fire, and then replace the god. For this reason, the strongest among them challenged the god again and again. "
"... Which one do you think is true?" Qi Leren asked.
The prophet turned his face and smiled at him: "It's just a story. Although the relationship between the court and the Holy See is better, I don't agree with many teachings of the Holy See, like this sentence: 'I was born in sin Yes. I was guilty when I was in my mother’s womb’. It can be said that Ning Zhou must have felt that his whole life was a reflection of this sentence. At that time, Maria sealed one-third of the demon crystal that destroyed the demon king in her body. In her body, she did not expect that she would be pregnant. The demon crystal and Ning Zhou gradually merged. Maria tried various methods, but she still couldn't stop it. Before Ning Zhou was born, she felt it even more in the dark. The future of this kid. She almost...almost killed him."
The people of Qi Le were terrified.
The prophet looked at the sunset, as if he was thinking about something, and his tone gradually softened: "But at that time, the Demon King of Destruction was dead, and Maria was on the verge of collapse. She pinned all her guilt and expectations on this child , she had already killed her lover, and was unable to kill her own child anymore. In order to avoid that future, Ning Zhou was told not to follow the same path as his father. After her death, Ning Zhou was sent to the Holy See...at least On the day she left, she still believed that Ning Zhou would have a good future... because I lied to her like this."
In the puzzled eyes of the Qi Le people, the prophet smiled slightly: "At that time, Maria had just given birth to him, and the army of demons who were chasing him had just retreated. We landed on the coast, and this is the place now, the land of dusk in the future, full of sky. They were all golden and red sunsets. I hugged Ning Zhou and prophesied for him, and I told Maria that this child would have a bright future, and he would live a pious and happy life.”
"But it's a lie." Qi Leren exposed him.
"Yes, this is a lie. In fact, what I saw was boundless pain and destruction." The prophet said.
Qi Leren's heart sank, despair made him bend down, his arms were propped on his knees, he was so decadent that he didn't want to move.
"Don't be too upset, I'm not telling you this to make you sit here and cry," said the Prophet.
Qi Leren raised his head and looked at him expectantly: "What else can I do?"
The Prophet gently placed the dancing ball of light in his palm, and asked:
"Leren, are you willing to inherit Twilight Land?"
