High blood pressure was not a problem. It did not happen often. He would be fine after a short rest. Don't, don't go. Let's finish today's work first. Trust me, it's fine. It's not a big deal. Don't forget that I'm an old man, a very old man. A lot of people would have died long ago at my age. It's already very rare for me to live a few more years than them. I would do this if I stood up suddenly, so I tried to do everything slowly. I used to be an impatient person, so I've learned to accept a slow life. We were all changed by life. Fortunately, I was changed by my own life and not someone else. To others, we are too weak. We can't say it because others don't say it, and we can't do it because others don't do it. How strong must this person be to stand there and not yield? This kind of suffering was not as easy as one imagined. Those who had never experienced it would never be able to imagine it. Stealing fire and tasting hundreds of herbs were not difficult, but telling the emperor that he was naked was the most difficult because you were not fighting against the emperor alone, you were fighting against the whole world. Don't you understand what I'm saying? Oh, young man, I meant telling the truth. And there was something more difficult than fighting against the entire world, which was to defeat oneself. In my life, I have seen a few people who have defeated themselves, but only a few. Most people lose the battle. If you want to win, you have to have faith, and this faith can be anything beautiful.
His brothers looked at him with harsh eyes and scolded," Thieves, lying children, traitors, cowards, hypocrites!
Dwarf: If you think this is fair to an honest child like me, then say it. I don't care at all. I'm not wrong. If there was anything wrong with me, it was that I treated companionship as friendship, blind obedience as friendship, sympathy as kinship, and others as myself. Those who love me will eventually love me, and those who don't will eventually abandon me. It's not because they misunderstand me or hate me, but because they don't love me. Love me or abandon me, it's up to you.
……
The Cowboy shouted happily, Look, the evil spirit has become a human!
Everyone looked over and saw a happy dwarf wearing a black guard uniform running over. The king hugged him and lifted him up. After understanding what was going on, the dwarf danced with excitement. It was very cute.
I continued to explain, and everyone listened attentively.
I said,"…" The brothers fell silent. After the dwarf left, everyone broke the silence and started discussing. They felt that this was unfair to the dwarves. The dwarves had good intentions, but they had done something wrong. Then they accused each other of not taking the dwarves seriously. Later, everyone blamed themselves and felt that they owed the dwarves. The dwarves finally received the love of their brothers and became strong and free.
When they grew up, the brothers brought the dwarves to do business together and made a lot of money. Although they inevitably parted ways in the end, the dwarves 'fate was very happy. He had married a tall wife with a crippled left hand. So what? Life was never perfect. They lived a good life and had a tall daughter. When they went shopping together, people would misunderstand that they were two women holding a child's hand. The dwarves even deliberately dressed up as children to make others happy.
Everyone listened attentively, smiling as they immersed themselves in the happiness of the dwarves.
In the square in front of the palace, Gong Gong was sitting on a high throne on the steps, playing with a Rubik's cube. The square was filled with silly people.
Viper came up to him and said,"Your Majesty, I didn't expect the Boy Scouts to have passed five forts. They really have some skills."
"Don't play too fast. It's not fun to play too fast. Give them some problems."
"I have a good idea. Do you want to hear it?"
"As long as no one dies and it doesn't violate the rules, let's take action. Just tell me the results when the time comes.”
"Then I'll take action. Oh, Your Majesty, today is the New Life Ceremony. You have to give a speech later.”
" What New Life Ritual?"
"It means that the brainwashing is complete. I gave it a name, the New Life Ritual, which means to be reborn.”
"The name is pretty good. You've improved.”
"I've learned a lot from my studies recently. There's a saying in the ancient times that goes,'Give a good name.' There's also a saying that goes,'If the name is not right, the words will not go smoothly.' There's also a saying that goes,'A teacher without a name is a way to endanger oneself.' Therefore, I'm quite concerned about names now.”
Gong Gong laughed,"Oh, I underestimated you." Then what names have you come up with?
"Please don't laugh at me. I'm just a beginner and I'm afraid of being affected.”
"Tell me, I won't laugh at you."
Viper took out a small notebook and chuckled," Humans are called people, which means that you love your people like your children. The prison was called the confessional, the guards were called the Patronus, and the prisoners were called the Atonement, indicating that they were guilty. The concentration camp was called a nursery to show that we loved the children. Whipping is called encouragement, scolding is called reminder, abuse is called discipline, killing a child is called a rite of passage, killing an adult is called going to heaven, showing that we care for them. Deception is called an intelligence test, plunder is called free hosting, coercion is called a stress test, temptation is called a vaccine, toying is called caressing, and ridicule is called attention. It shows that we educate and protect them. The palace was called the Parliament Building, and the Colosseum was called the National Theater…
"I didn't expect you to be so creative.”
"I would have liked to make these names more elegant, but human rhetoric is too profound for me to grasp.”
"It's good enough. It has to be simple and practical.”
"Your Majesty is right."
"People call you prime minister?"
"I think I should call you wangye."
"Then what should I be called?"
Viper said enthusiastically,"You'd better not be called God of War. You'd better be called Cosmic Monarch!" Ah...
Isn't that the title of Fuxi?"
"I've thought about it and only this title suits you best. You can ask Fuxi to change his name."
"That's a good idea. However, he had to find a reason to change his name.”
"Humans have a law called the intellectual property protection law. If you register first, he won't be able to use it.”
"That's good. I've never studied human laws before. I've always thought that human legal intelligence is very low. I didn't expect it to be so useful.”
"Many laws have loopholes that we can exploit. Especially the national constitution. If the rights of the people stipulated in it were changed to ours, everything would be justified.”
"Very interesting. Then let's change it."
"But there are many constitutions. Which one should I refer to?”
"Which country was the strongest in the past?”
"It's said to be America."
"Then change it to theirs."
"But the United States is a democratic country. There are too many things that need to be changed.”
"Then choose a simple one."
"Then let's choose the Ming Dynasty."
"Alright, I have a good impression of Ming Dynasty.”
"Alright, I'll do it. Your Majesty, the ceremony has begun. It's your turn to speak.”
Viper took out his notebook and shouted into the microphone," People, let us welcome the great head of the Empire, His Majesty the God of War, to give us a speech.
The square was filled with thunderous applause. Cheers rang out.
Gong Gong picked up the Rubik's cube, waved at the crowd, and said with a resolute face,"
Our country is a great country. We have worked hard to restore peace from war and rebuild our homeland from destruction!
The applause was thunderous.
The history of mankind was filled with blood and cruelty, racial discrimination, territorial disputes, arms races, and the threat of nuclear weapons. But today, we finally realized our long-cherished wish of thousands of years, becoming a nation, a country, and a monarch! The terrifying history of mankind had come to an end!
The applause was thunderous.
Any country had pursued eternal peace and stability, but it had never been realized. Political parties can only create corruption, and democracy can only create disputes. To end all of this, a great monarch is needed, and that is me!
The applause was thunderous.
I am your father, your god, your reliance, your faith. I give this country, this civilization, and you a new life!
The applause was thunderous.
From this moment on, don't doubt, don't hesitate, don't be afraid, don't worry. I will take care of your lives. I promise you heaven!
Gong Gong spread his arms and released his divine power. Immediately, a dazzling light wave covered the crowd on the square.
Applause rose and fell, shaking the heavens and earth. The people cheered and received the divine light, intoxicated by it.
Viper was extremely excited when he saw this scene. It was as if he had seen blood. He bared his poisonous teeth and stuck out his tongue.
The advance party was full of morale. Without any wounded soldiers, they advanced very quickly. Suddenly, the Cowboy came over and reported that an old man in white was blocking the way on the suspension bridge. Leo went over to take a look. There was a mountain stream in front of him, and at the bottom was a surging river. There was an iron chain suspension bridge in the middle of the mountain stream, and many of the wooden planks on the bridge were missing. On the other end of the suspension bridge, an old man in white was sitting with his eyes closed. His beard and hair were unkempt like weeds, and beside him was a wooden cane.
Leo wanted to walk over but was stopped by the King, who reminded him of the danger. He asked the Mirror Demon Elder if he was an evil spirit, and the Mirror Demon asked him to cast two spells to see if he could tell. Leo probed. The old man said,"Come here and I'll show you."
Leo was shocked. He hesitated for a moment and moved to go over. The Cowboy stopped him, reminding him of the danger.
Leo had no other choice. Just as he stepped on a wooden plank, his foot fell off. Fortunately, he grabbed the iron chain. He stepped back, extremely surprised. He had clearly stepped on the wooden board, so how could he have missed it? He tried another wooden plank, and it was indeed empty.
Leo asked the Mirror Demon,"Why is this plank empty?"
"I'll look it up. Oh, the book says it's a kind of blind-blocking magic. What the eyes see may not be true; What can't be seen might not be fake."
"Does that mean that the wooden board is hollow, and the incomplete space is the wooden board?”
"You can try. I'm not sure either.”
Leo stepped on an empty space and indeed stepped on something solid. Leo walked onto the suspension bridge. Everyone was frightened when they saw him stepping on the void. Their hearts were beating with Leo's every step.
Leo walked on the bridge and shouted at the evil spirit," What tricks do you have? I'm not afraid of you.
The evil spirit raised its staff and pointed at Leo. The staff emitted a strong light and hit Leo. He fell unconscious in the empty space of the drawbridge.
I exclaimed, Leo!
Mirror Demon: He's been hit by the Hollow Spell. The victim's entire body was weak, and he fell into a deep coma and laziness. You must help him.
I entered Leo's consciousness and asked him, What's wrong with you?
"I'm fine. I just don't want to do anything. I don't want to do anything."
"Are you sick?"
"I'm not sick. Mom was dead, but it had nothing to do with this. After a few days of grief, it's all over."
"You should go out with your companions and relax. You'll feel more comfortable.”
"I'm fine alone."
"Have you eaten?"
"I haven't eaten for two days. I'm not hungry and don't want to eat.”
"How can that do? That's too abnormal."
"If Mom can die, what can't happen?”
"It's inevitable that people will have misfortune and fortune.”
"You haven't experienced my pain, so you can say anything.”
"I can understand how you feel. When I was young, my puppy died and I was very sad.”
What are you talking about? That's my mother. How can it be the same? Leo was furious.
"I'm sorry. I said the wrong thing. Don't be angry. I feel sorry for her."
"It's nothing. It's all in the past. Mom died very peacefully."
"Does she love you?"
"Of course, she loves me more than her father.”
"Then she must be very sad to see you like this.”
"She won't be sad. She's dead. When she dies, there's nothing left.”
"She must have gone to heaven. She's very happy now."
"Is there a heaven? Where is heaven?"
"Another dimension."
"Are you dreaming? Why do you sound like it's real?”
"I've seen the Sun God. Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Leo, you should get rid of your grief.”
"I no longer have any grief. I just feel that living is meaningless."
"You've fallen into a dilemma. Tell me, do you have a dream?"
"I dream of being a sailor and visiting every corner of the world. But that was in the past. I don't want to do anything now.”
"You hate that your mother died too early. You hate that you didn't treat her well, so she died. You didn't have the chance to repay her love.”
"I don't hate you. You're lying!"
"You're jealous that other children have a mother, but you don't have one now. You hate them.”
"I don't hate, I don't hate! Stop talking, stop talking!"
"You don't know what to do in the future. Your family is broken, and you give up on yourself!”
"I didn't, I didn't!"
Leo cried in pain and shook his head.
"You're an inexperienced child who doesn't understand anything. Because you don't understand, you're confused. Because you lost something, you're resentful.”
"I miss Mommy! I want him to accompany me! I don't want to do anything else, I don't want to!”
"How can you be so stubborn?”
“……”
"You have to pull yourself together and welcome a new life. You still have a father. Haven't you thought about how Dad feels? Daddy also needs your comfort."
"Why would he need my comfort? I need his comfort, but he only knows how to drink.”
"It was because he couldn't cry like you that he went to drink. Like you, he doesn't know how to free himself.”
"He is an adult, he can comfort himself.”
"No one can be so strong. Because you've always been loved, you don't know that others need love too.”
"Does he need love too? I never thought about this, and I didn't know how to love Dad. All I know is to do as he says, study hard, and don't be naughty.”
"Don't you want to love Daddy?"
"I want to, but I don't know how to love.”
"You just need to comfort me like this. Daddy would be very happy. He'll think you've grown up."
"I've forgotten what you said.”
"Hugs and kisses are the best language.”
"I'm so happy! I'll do it immediately."
……
Leo woke up and hurriedly ran back. The Cowboy touched Leo's forehead and thought," You scared me. Are you okay?"
Leo: I'm fine. I've never seen you so scared before.
Cowboy: You fell in mid-air, can you not worry? We don't dare to go over.
King: What is the background of the evil spirit?
Liar: Don't you think he looks like your old buddy?
King: Who? Oh, Lord Bishop!
I said, Yes, I saw him. He used to be a bishop. You rule actions, he rules thoughts.
Liar: Then who is older? Can you control his actions, or can he control your thoughts?
Beauty: Stop fooling around. Serious business was more important!
I said,"He was smart since he was young, pure in his thoughts, and well-behaved. His parents sent him to the monastery to study mythology." He was deeply engrossed in theology, and he endured a lot of hardships and suppressed many emotions. His performance was outstanding and he had virtue, so he was chosen as a missionary and sent to the East with a companion. Along the way, his companions disappeared, and he suffered all kinds of unfortunate fates alone. After going through all kinds of hardships and narrowly escaping death, he finally returned to the church and found out that his companion had become a bishop. He was framed by his companions and took the wrong path. The reason was that only he could compete with his companions for the position of bishop. He took revenge on his companions, exposed his conspiracy, and made him abandoned and sent to prison. He was appointed bishop. Because he fell in love with the talent and beauty of the female poet, he wanted to take it for himself. He announced that the invention and science of the genius violated the will of God and executed the genius. At the prayer meeting of the dead king, the poetess exposed the bishop's lies. The bishop died of shame…
King: My old friend is a determined man. How could he die of shame because of a few words from a poetess? Unbelievable!
I said,"The poetess was very excited at the time. This is what she said to the bishop. My dear bishop, do you think the king will go to heaven?"
"Of course. Why would you ask such a question?"
"What qualifications do you need to go to heaven?”
"It has to be someone without sin.”
"Then can you go to heaven too?"
"Of course, I am a bishop. Oh, not only that, I didn't mean that. I mean that I'm also a sinless person.”
"What kind of person is not guilty?”
"Pure heart, love others, never harm others, everything is fair and benevolent, and so on.”
"What if he harmed someone out of kindness?”
"It depends on the consequences."
"That person was killed."
"That won't do."
"What if you harmed others for evil purposes?”
"That's even more impossible. Then he would definitely not be able to enter heaven. Not only would he not be able to enter, but he would also go to hell.”
"Then for what purpose did you kill the genius?”
The bishop's tongue trembled as he said,"I did not kill him. I gave him a fair trial."
"No one can prove that a genius intentionally killed a liar, but I can prove that it was an accident.”
"You can't prove that you're his lover.”
"Who can prove that it wasn't an accident?”
"Not just an accident, but his invention violated God's will and authority.”
"Which page of the Bible says that medical machines are not allowed to be invented? What sentence did you use to convict him?”
"Although it's not explicitly stated, I have the right to explain the Bible. If I have to explain it, I can write a paper to prove it in a few days.”
"Where did you get your authority?”
"The Church."
The poetess smiled and said,"Fortunately, it's not from God."
"It's equivalent to the power obtained from God.”
"Are you saying that the Church is equivalent to God?”
" No, he's God's organization."
"Then you won't make a mistake? Just because the Church gave you the authority?”
"I won't make a mistake. I've gone through a strict theological education. I've spent my entire life in this kind of constant education.”
"Do you think you can be compared to the disciples of Jesus?”
"I can't compare. I'm still far from being a Divinity.”
"Everyone makes mistakes. Even the disciple of Judas betrayed Jesus. Why do you still say that you won't make mistakes?”
"Even if I make mistakes, I will never make mistakes in the face of such a major issue.”
The poetess roared,"Lies!" Liar!
"Are you crazy?"
"You've been lying your whole life! Deceiving the ignorant people, deceiving the king and his subjects, deceiving yourself!”
"You are indeed crazy. There are consequences for insulting me! Even if the king dies, the officials will not let you off.”
"Then let them come. Let them see the true colors of a liar like you!”
"I do everything with a benevolent heart, according to God's will!”
The bishop's trembling hands drew a cross, and his trembling lips kept chanting prayers.
"Lies! Your judgment process was so weak that it was almost a blow. Your words were filled with absurdity. You used the name of God to achieve your despicable goals!”
"You're slandering me! What motive could I have?"
"You wanted to have me, so you killed the genius!”
"Nonsense! I'm a bishop, I can't have sex with women, how can I have you?”
"How many times have you peeked at my beauty and body? Your eyes are anxious, your language is chaotic, your words are not clear, your rationality suppresses your inner desires, and you are constantly struggling and resisting. In the end, the two of them reached a consensus. Alright, if she couldn't have it, then she wouldn't be owned by anyone. Then you killed my husband!"
"Whatever you say. What evidence do you have?”
"I have no evidence, and I don't need it. Judge yourself now. Come on, practice before God judges you!”
"I judged Genius because he violated the rules of the Church.”
"You're affecting your authority because of him. His machine can heal the wounds of the heart, but you're useless.”
"Soul and faith belong to God. Humans can't touch them!”
"What's your reason? Which disciple? Who said that?"
"I said it. Wasn't it? The body belonged to the doctor, and the soul belonged to the church.”
"Everything can be done. Not everything is good for you. Who said that?"
"Jesus. This sentence was not explained in that way. It had nothing to do with this matter.”
"But can you find a sentence to refute it?”
"This…Then can we even steal and rob?”
"That's why there are laws in the world. Other than the law, no one had the power to sentence someone to death.”
"Is the law enough? Then who would be the judge for crimes outside the law?”
"They themselves. They came to judge themselves, to suffer the condemnation and torment of their conscience, to repent, to obtain forgiveness. Didn't you also judge yourself like this? Oh, right, I forgot that you're a bishop. You have immunity.”
"No one has immunity before God.”
"Which God? Was it a dignified monarch who killed the innocent, or an uncrowned king who sacrificed himself on the cross to save mankind? You have gained his name, but lost his sacrifice; You have acquired the scepter, but have forgotten his mercy. You're just hypocrites who use his name to make a living!”
"No, I've never thought of it that way. I dedicated my life to him. Can't I get his blessing?”
"You can come up with the result yourself. Blessing or judgment, heaven or hell?”
The bishop's face was pale, and his eyes were blank.……
"Geniuses have at least loved. What about you? Geniuses are free, what about you? Geniuses have been created, what about you? I pity you, and I hope your God is the same.”
The poetess turned around and left. The bishop was left standing there alone in a daze.
"Love? Freedom? Creation? Freedom? Creation? Love? Creation? Love? Freedom?"
……
King: No wonder you are a poet? My old buddy is so pitiful. She hit his soft spot.
Liar: It's interesting to die like this. Is it suicide or murder?
Beauty: I'm afraid it's murder. Haha.
[Genius: You guys are too numb. You can't joke about other people's deaths.]
Cowboy: It doesn't matter. He'll come back to life soon.
Leo: Yena, where do you think his keys are?
I said,"I haven't figured it out yet. I don't know him very well."
Beauty: Yes, he is a profound bishop.
King: Humans are understandable. Let's analyze it.
Genius: I think he won't die if he doesn't kill me.
Liar: Even if I don't kill you, I will kill others. The result was the same.
Genius: But if he kills others, he won't meet the poetess and go crazy.
King: He's not mad, he's ashamed, or remorseful.
Leo: Why is he ashamed and remorseful? Did he think that he was a murderer?
Beauty: This is only one aspect. He also regrets wasting his life on mistakes.
Liar: Yes, that's why there's resentment.
Genius: Does he hate his church? The Church had given him glory and status, so he would not hate the Church.
King: He will, even if he gets a lot. It depends on what he values more. I don't care about glory and status.
Liar: That's because you have everything. People won't cherish what they have.
King: That makes sense, but I value spiritual salvation more. Dwarf, why aren't you saying anything?
Dwarf: I'm still thinking, I don't quite understand. Go on, I love to hear it. It's fun.
Beauty: Maybe he hates his parents. He had been sent to a seminary at such a young age and experienced a harsh education that suppressed the emotional impulses of many normal people. This caused him to live in the conflict between rationality and emotion all his life, unable to extricate himself.
I said,"I understand a little." Let me see if I can restore his freedom.
I want to start with his preaching. After he came back, he was very stubborn and firmly believed in God. From the past five cases, I found a trick. I could always find the answer by starting from the time when their stubborn character had not yet formed.
I entered the bishop's past. The bishop had just returned from the east and was packing his things.
"What about the East?"
"He's very different from us. He's different in every way.”
"What's your next step?"
"I want to expose my companion's mask. He evaded his duty to preach. He thought that I had gone on a dead end, so he hid for a while and came back. He didn't preach at all. When he came back, he was lucky enough to become a bishop.”
"Fortunately, you're back too."
"It wasn't luck that I came back. It was God's arrangement.”
"Have you seen God?"
"No, I haven't. But I received help and hints from God. I passed through the uninhabited desert and didn't eat for three days and three nights. He gave me food.”
"What delicious food?"
"A wild wolf."
"How terrifying. How could that be given to you by God? It's the wolves who want to eat you.”
"When I encountered bandits who wanted to kill me, God saved me.”
"Then what's going on?"
"There was a sandstorm, and they couldn't find me.”
"That's a very natural thing."
"Also, the King of the East did not allow me to preach. He was the one who made the King immediately change his mind.”
"What happened?"
"Lunar Eclipse."
"Isn't this too much of a coincidence?"
"These are all miracles. It was God's arrangement that allowed me to live until today and successfully complete my mission. In the future, I will wholeheartedly fight for God's cause, at all costs.”
"Any price?"
"Even if I have to sacrifice my life and happiness.”
"What about the others?"
"If it's beneficial to the cause, it has to be sacrificed.”
"Isn't this too cruel?"
"Only with God's guidance can people not be lost. God's cause is the greatest cause. This cause would bring happiness to millions of people. What was a little sacrifice for this cause?”
"Wouldn't it be sad for those who innocently sacrifice their happiness and lives? They also have rights and freedom."
"Abandoning God's life is useless. Human freedom will only lead to corruption, loss, and depravity. Human rights cannot be compared to God's rights.”
"How did you realize this?”
"Hunger, loneliness, danger, helplessness, all these made me realize.”
"So it's because you took the wrong path and encountered misfortune.”
"I didn't go the wrong way. I went the right way. Or rather, I chose my own path, but I chose the right one.”
"You chose it yourself? Didn't the Church give you a map?”
"I didn't use a map."
"Why? It was very dangerous to take an unfamiliar path.”
"I originally wanted to atone for my sins with death, so I chose a dead end. My companion didn't agree, so he ran away.”
"Do you want to atone for your sins?"
"I'm not guilty. Don't ask."
"Why don't you let me ask?"
"How annoying! Go away, I still have to pack my things.”
I said to everyone: He is really stubborn. I can't persuade him.
Dwarf: There must be a reason for his atonement. That was a no man's land, and those who went in had a slim chance of survival. He must have wanted to die.
I said,"I understand. I'll find the reason."……Before he left, nothing happened. He worked, sang, and went to class every day. It was very good. Sigh, he seemed to be two people, one in the day and one at night. Or should I say, he was one person in front of others and another person when he was alone.
When he was alone, he was very unhappy. He often lost his temper and abused himself, hitting his thigh with a ruler. Why did he do that? It hurt so much, but he still held it in and didn't let anyone hear it. It was so uncomfortable.
Mirror Demon, look ahead and see what happened."……Well, he was also rewarded. Let me see what reward it was... A medal of valor from the Pope.……This should not be an ordinary reward.……The Pope kissed his forehead and personally put it on his chest, smiling approvingly at him. He felt very nervous. The Pope said he was a brave warrior who had the courage to put out fires.……Fire? Mirror Demon, look ahead. The fire.
Well... the library was on fire, he was fighting it, and a boy ran out in fear. His hair and clothes were on fire. Fortunately, the rescuers put out the fire on his body. He was still injured and his thigh was scarred.……Sigh, that was the scar he had hit with the ruler just now. Mirror Demon, go forward and see why the fire started.……
Alright.?He was reading in the library with the boy who had run away. It was very late, and there were only the two of them. They might have to prepare for some exam. The boy was asleep with an oil lamp beside him. After a while, the bishop put down the book and went to wake him up, but he did not get up. The bishop pushed him and knocked over the oil lamp, which fell onto the carpet and caught fire. The bishop was extremely anxious, but there was no water. He used books to beat the fire. The fire grew bigger and bigger, and soon the whole house was on fire. The boy suddenly woke up and ran away when he found that everyone was frightened.……It turned out that the oil lamp that the bishop had touched had caused the fire.
Beauty: Then it's clear. He started the fire and tried his best to put it out. He was regarded as a hero. The boy ran away and was regarded as an arsonist and a deserter.
[Dwarf: He didn't think he was a hero, so he was very nervous when he was awarded the honor. Later, he whipped his thigh as a sign of shame and self-blame.]
King: Not only was he ashamed and blamed himself, but he also felt guilty for not having the courage to confess. These people were too muddle-headed. They didn't investigate clearly and just randomly gave out medals.
Liar: Anyone would encounter this kind of thing. Anyway, it's all in the past. Just pretend that it never happened.
Beauty: Do you think he is as numb as you? He was a good boy and a devout believer.
Genius: Not only that, he might also be a perfectionist and think that he shouldn't make any mistakes. It's very likely that he really hasn't made any mistakes.
Leo: How can we help him?
King: It's very difficult. This kind of child was the hardest to change. The two extremes of children were the hardest to change. One was very bad, and the other was very good.
I said,"No matter what, I have to try. I think this is the key."
Beauty: I think so too. Before this, he had been living a very happy life. His life was orderly and he did not have any burdens in his heart. After that, he became very depressed and irritable. He even had the tendency to abuse himself. You can change him from now on.
King: I agree.
Liar: We rarely form a tacit understanding, bro.
I entered the bishop's past and said to him, Does the wound on your leg still hurt?
"It hurts, but not as much as the pain in my heart.”
"What hurt you?"
"I am a sinner."
"It wasn't your fault, it was an unintentional mistake, and you made up for it by putting out the fire.”
"But people put crowns and medals on me and I don't deserve them.”
"Then go back. It'll be fine if you go back.”
"There's no way to return. The ceremony has already ended.”
"Then tell them what happened.”
"No one will believe it, not even the boy who ran away. He remembered knocking over the oil lamp in his sleep.”
"He remembered wrongly. He touched your hand.”
"But he has already admitted it, so I can't say anything more. If I say anything else, others will think that I'm lying to protect him.”
"They'll believe you if you try your best to explain, unless you don't want your honor to go back.”
"I want it. It was given by the Pope. Not everyone can obtain such a high honor. Besides, I've tried my best, and I'm injured.”
"That's what you shouldn't have. Didn't you say so too?”
"Mom and Dad will be proud of me.”
" Even if it's a fake honor?"
"No one knows it's fake."
"You know it yourself."
"Won't it be fine if I forget?"
"Can you?"
"I can't. But I'll do something good to make it up to you."
"You can make it up to yourself and that boy now.”
"He escaped. He's a deserter.”
"You started the fire. He shouldn't have taken the blame for you."
"I will compensate him."
"Who will compensate you?"
" I'll use my entire life to make up for it. I'll offer myself to the world, to the Church.”
"Then why did you abuse yourself?"
"I am a sinner. I should punish myself."
"Is it okay after being punished?"
"Yes, it's not a big mistake. I didn't hurt anyone."
"You hurt yourself."
"I will recover."
"Really? Become numb or become hypocritical? You're a good child. You should know to correct your mistakes.”
"But it's too late. I didn't admit it before the award. If I admit it now, I'll be laughed at.”
"It's never too late to admit your mistakes. So what if he was laughed at? Who hasn't made mistakes? Besides, you're just a child."
"I'm not a child anymore. They treat me like an adult.”
"You're still a child. You're just imitating adults. There are many things you don't understand.”
"Can't I just repent to God?”
"Fine, but you have a chance to correct yourself. Don't use repentance to escape.”
"Why are you targeting me like this?"
"I'm not targeting you. I want to save you.”
"This is just a small mistake. I don't need to save it.”
"But this small mistake will affect your entire life.”
"Is it that serious?"
"Your life has been completely changed by this little mistake, hasn't it?”
"Yeah, I'm not that happy anymore. I hate myself. I don't want to talk to anyone. I know, but what am I going to do if they find out I don't deserve the medal? Will I be miserable?"
"At least it's better than this. There was a saying that went,"If you can pick it up, you can put it down."”
"What if I am expelled from the academy?"
"That means that there's nothing here for you to learn.”
"Then I will lose my faith."
"Faith is in your heart. If you don't want to lose it, it will always be there.”
"That's far from God."
"If you hide your mistakes, that's the only way to stay away from him. And you corrected him, you are approaching him."
"Then wouldn't my injury be meaningless?”
"Your injury will remind you to correct your mistakes in the future.”
"I understand. I'm too timid."
"You're brave. You're not even afraid of fire. However, brave people would not dare to admit their mistakes. You're not the first, nor will you be the last. This is a human weakness."
"Will I be forgiven if I correct my mistakes?”
"Definitely. Stop torturing yourself. You don't deserve this pain.”
The bishop shed tears of relief, and his expression was no longer nervous." I let go.
The bishop confessed to the headmaster, who took back his medal and threw it into the fire, saying, You have to keep it a secret and not tell anyone. If we let the people know that the Pope and the Church have made mistakes, they will lose their trust in us and their faith.
The bishop said,"We are far away from God by doing this."
The principal smiled and said,"Silly child, we're doing this for God." He would understand.
"God won't let us do that. This was equivalent to stealing from the inside. We are God's servants. We must dare to admit our mistakes. If even we can't sincerely repent, how can we count on the faith of others?”
The principal was angry and said,"You've only been studying for a few days, and you dare to talk back to me!"
"The truth doesn't necessarily lie in your hands. Anyone can defend him."
The principal waved his hand and said,"Go away. It's all burned anyway." I want to maintain the authority of the Church. A small price is worth it. If God punishes me, let him punish me.
"I will let everyone know that you burned the medal to cover up the truth.”
"Don't you want to stay any longer?"
"If this place is no longer pure, yes.”
"Well, I hope you find a pure land.”
So you don't believe in God."
Principal: Who said that? I spread my faith for a living. I'm a shepherd dog. I'm doing the cause of faith, and there's no cause that doesn't require us to sacrifice our freedom, including purity. When the business succeeds, we will take it back double!
"Oh, what do you know? You don't know how difficult it is. We have to occupy the hearts of the people before Buddhism and islam. If everyone did what you did, our careers would have been over long ago.
The bishop smiled bitterly,"I understand." May God be with you.
The Cowboy shouted, The evil spirit has transformed!
And I'll finish the story. The Bishop left the Academy and became a free-thinking writer, but he still believed in God. He felt that his pen might be more powerful in soothing people's hearts and establishing people's faith. He felt a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
He later died peacefully, leaving behind some valuable works. On his tombstone was written, A Preacher.
……
An old man in white with a kind face and deep wisdom walked over with a cane and said," What are you looking at? Is the girl in the bronze mirror talking about me?
Everyone came to chat with the old man.
Suddenly, a golden eagle appeared in the sky and grabbed two people. Viper rode on it.
The Cowboy recognized his parents at a glance and shouted at Viper," Let them go!
