The artist pulls out a weeping willow tree

Chapter 209: Good Luck, Bad Omen

Xiang Xiang fell asleep early that night and woke up at dawn the next day.

The lighting equipment inside the church hall was turned off, and the room was slightly dim. The stained glass windows were covered with a layer of ink-like bright colors by the dawn light, exuding a hazy and gorgeous feeling...

The rule of the Creationist sect is to pray three times a day, and morning prayer is the most important prayer schedule. During the period of living in the church, morning prayer must be held in the church hall every day, while noon and night prayers before going to bed can be arranged by oneself.

The saint kneels at the front of the crowd closest to the relief, followed by clergy, people who have registered for the selection ceremony, and believers.

Xiang Xiang arrived early, so he naturally occupied the best position in the registration line, with a distance of a clergyman between him and the saint.

The morning prayer ceremony ends when the sun rises to a certain height and the sky becomes bright.

After the end, it was time for breakfast, and Xiang Xiang still chose the nutrient solution.

After the meal, everyone can arrange their own time.

This private forest park covers a large area and is open to the public free of charge around the clock. It is a not very popular but not unpopular tourist destination on Planet 1987. Or to be more precise, it is more like a place that is well known by the locals and is suitable for traveling. Strangers can easily find it if they actively look for it, but in the eyes of the locals, it is nothing special.

It disguises itself as an ordinary person very naturally, and believers and ordinary people coexist harmoniously here.

Xiang Xiang curiously walked out of the church and strolled in the vast forest, with birds chirping in his ears. This is a kingdom belonging to birds.

Xiang Xiang walked in the forest for a long time before he finally stopped, still wanting to go back. A few birds flew in from nowhere and just landed, then frightened by Xiang Xiang's passing, they flapped their wings and flew away again, disappearing into the depths of the mysterious forest in the blink of an eye...

Just like the way here, we didn't meet many people on the way back to the church. It was the first time for the frail Xiang Xiang to participate in such a long and free outdoor activity. Although he was tired, he couldn't hide his excitement.

Unfortunately, he ran into the arrogant woman with whom he had a conflict yesterday at the church door. The arrogant woman reflexively raised her eyebrows and looked disgusted and angry when she saw Xiang Xiang for the first time.

The arrogant woman opened her mouth as if she was about to say something unpleasant, but in the end she seemed to be hesitant about something and finally closed her mouth. The arrogant woman looked at him with contempt, and her expression was very exaggerated, as if she had seen something dirty. She covered her mouth and nose with one hand, glanced at him sarcastically, and then left.

Xiang Xiang lowered his head, and his back, which was not straight to begin with, became even more bent.

The gatekeeper at the church door watched all this with a smile...

Xiang Xiang seemed to be a naturally unpleasant person, or maybe it was because she was the only one who was particularly cared for by the saint. In short, the applicants who were being screened had a very bad attitude towards Xiang Xiang. Inexplicable malicious eyes pierced Xiang Xiang's thin and weak body. In Xiang Xiang's eyes, it seemed that everyone except the clergy was a devil.

"Relax, kid, this world is not scary." The saint looked at Xiang Xiang with pity, his nerves were tense and he seemed to be in a state of collapse.

"Yes, I'm sorry, but I don't know, I haven't seen it..." Xiang Xiang spoke incoherently as if he wanted to express something.

"...It's okay, it's just because you are too unfamiliar with the outside world." The saint who knew Xiang Xiang's past gently comforted Xiang Xiang who was kneeling in front of the relief.

"They are all devils..." Xiang Xiang muttered to himself unconsciously.

"Yes, they are all devils." The saint's mouth curled up.

"What should I do?" Xiang Xiang began to ask the saint for help.

"Forgive them, purify them, and let them feel the power of God." The saint smiled.

"Forgive them, purify them, and let them feel the power of God."

"Yes, you are a gifted child. God's light will always shine upon you..."

The sun shines behind the saint, and an invisible barrier seems to separate the two worlds of light and darkness. A strange smile blooms on the dim face, like the prelude to a carnival...

Xiang Xiang, whose heart was severely traumatized, returned to his room in silence.

Huang Dou, who was lying in the backpack pretending to be dead, pecked open the zipper carefully, and his yellow chicken head looked around vigilantly.

"Jiji!" Huangdou cried out like a thief.

Hearing this, Jixiang fiddled with the space ring on Huangdou's neck and said, "There's a place you can go to for me."

"Jiji?" Huangdou stared at him with his big eyes, looking stupid and ignorant.

Jixiang tapped Huangdou's little head with his fingers and said, "Don't play dumb. I know your ability. Your work is not in vain."

After hearing the last sentence, Huang Dou rubbed Jixiang's fingers with his sticky fingers.

"Ji!" No problem!

After another morning prayer, Xiang Xiang once again went into the forest alone. Unlike yesterday, this time Xiang Xiang was followed by many people who also signed up to go into the forest.

Xiang Xiang pinched his fingers and palms nervously.

The sound of talking and laughing came from behind, far away as if it came from another world. Xiang Xiang felt restless all over, with a faint feeling of suffocation that made it hard to breathe.

There was a "splash" sound of someone falling into the water.

"…What's wrong?" someone asked.

"Nothing." the man replied.

The eyes of several people scattered nearby swept over Xiang Xiang, who had just struggled and finally collapsed in the shallow water.

Xiang Xiang curled up his trembling body, trying to hide his own embarrassment and to resist the mixed gazes from the outside world.

The man who deliberately pushed Xiang Xiang into the river had a look of regret in his eyes and said, "Merciful God, please forgive me for not being able to offer you joy."

The people watching smiled oddly.

After all the onlookers left, Xiang Xiang finally climbed out of the river.

Joy? If I remember correctly, this is the most classic passage in the Holy Scriptures. After the Holy Father suffered torture in the human world, he finally began to awaken. God was extremely happy for the growth of his only son.

What a bunch of psychopaths! Xiang Xiang was so angry that he was shaking.

Everyone's life story is no secret, and the clergy even secretly guide the applicants to understand it all. There is no doubt that Xiang Xiang is the most miserable and the easiest to bully. Everyone is testing the attitude of the clergy. According to the content of the Holy Scripture, these people are trying to find a breakthrough point.

In the chapter of God's Joy, the people who tortured the Holy Father finally confessed deeply to the Holy Father and were forgiven. The forgiven torturers became the Holy Father's guardians in the world. This is the doctrine of the Creation God Church that encourages the evildoers to rationalize their evil deeds...

There are many similar contents, and different belief packages are formulated according to different people. The ultimate goal is to trap people, brainwash and enslave them, and squeeze profits from these people...

The Holy Scripture is nothing more than a cover created for their greed...

Xiang Xiang's falling into the water really became a trigger, and the eager applicants began to show their fangs hidden deep in their hearts...

The clergy watched the farce in front of them with dignified expressions. In order to avoid conflict and harm, Xiang Xiang had to spend more time praying in the church, because only in the church hall would these people remain silent.

However, on the third day of the observation day, after the morning prayers, the church hall was closed.
