Chapter 104 The Man in White
In response to Lin Feng's question, Aurora nervously grabbed the corner of her clothes and wrinkled it.
"I'm sorry..." Aurora lowered her head and bit her lip tightly, "She is my mother."
"You said she was going to sell you to the men in white. What's that about?"
The real reason why Lin Feng chose to take the little girl away just now was not her mother's bad attitude towards him, but the little girl's words.
During this time, the only people wearing white clothes were priests from the church.
"More than a month ago, the group of people in white clothes came to the city, and went door to door to deliver some food and daily necessities, and also provided us with free medical treatment. With their help, many sick people in the city recovered. Then, half a month ago, those people suddenly came to our street, wanting to pick some children and take them back to learn doctrine.
Because they helped us a lot during this period, some people were happy to let their children go with them. I had a friend who went with them and said goodbye to me happily when he left. He also said that the people in white clothes gave their family a lot of supplies, which could keep them fed for several years.
But since then, I haven't seen my little friend again, until a few days ago, when I ran to the city and saw him walking behind a group of people in white clothes, and there were dozens of other children like him.
I ran over and called his name, but he ignored me. I ran over and pulled his hand, but he pushed me away. Then a man in white clothes came up and helped me up, asking me if I wanted to go with my friend.
I was very scared, so I ran back.
Yesterday, the group of people in white clothes came to our street again, asking if anyone was willing to go with them.
Because the families of the children who went with them were generously rewarded, the news spread, so some people, including my mother's family, wanted to send us all to study.
I didn't want to, so I ran out. Brother, I don't want to be like my friend, whose eyes are like those of a dead person, staring at me, I'm so scared! "
Aurora seemed to remember something and curled up with her arms folded.
Lin Feng looked around. Several people in the temple were looking at him blankly. One or two people were listening with their ears perked up, but they turned their heads away when Lin Feng looked at them.
"Do you know where those people in white clothes are?" Lin Feng asked in a low voice.
"They are all in the city. We are in the outskirts of Shadow Moon City, and there are not many people in white clothes. There are more people wearing white clothes in the city, and there are hundreds of people wearing purple and red clothes. They are building some building right where the Conferred God Platform used to be." said the little girl.
Lin Feng exhaled heavily.
But instead of relaxation, I felt inexplicable pressure.
Obviously, this Holy Spirit Festival is extremely important to the Caesar Empire. Not only are there numerous white-robed priests, but also purple-robed cardinals and red cardinals from all over the country have been mobilized, and the scene is quite large.
Hong Zhou caused a lot of trouble to the Holy See some time ago, but for the huge Holy See, it did not cause any fundamental damage, and only some middle and lower-level personnel died.
To the shame of the Holy See, to this day, they have not found the Red Day's base camp.
This Holy Spirit Festival is most likely a way to lure the snake out of its hole by using itself as bait.
Since Red Day is an organization whose goal is to overthrow the Vatican, how could they miss this great opportunity?
The Holy See is doing this at this moment, making every effort to catch Red Day in one fell swoop.
However, Lin Feng felt that there might be more to it than that.
Pope Gabriel colluded with the undead and asked the Pope to prepare what he wanted. However, the Pope announced that he would attend this Whitsunday. It is absolutely impossible to say that this Whitsunday has nothing to do with the undead.
What do the dead want?
It's life and sacrifice. Could it be that there will be a brutal massacre here? !
Thinking of this, Lin Feng felt a chill down his spine.
"Where is the Conferred God Platform?" Lin Feng noticed the place Aurora mentioned.
"The Conferred God Platform is located in the center of Shadow Moon City. After entering Shadow Moon City, the yellow sand there will be less, and you can see a staircase leading to the sky. That is the Conferred God Platform. Thousands of years ago, our God of Magic and Sword Saint would undergo the transformation of divine power there and become unparalleled beings."
"Will a god really appear?"
"Maybe there were some in the past. If there are still gods now, how could we, the children of God, be forgotten by them? Our life span is only 50 or 60 years. If we get a serious illness, we are on the verge of death."
Aurora is young, but she has a deep understanding of life and death.
Perhaps it is due to the indoctrination of ideas by elders over the years, or perhaps it is the disappointment in God that runs in his bones and blood.
You brought glory to the people of Shadowmoon City thousands of years ago, but forgot their descendants who are wandering in pain and disease thousands of years later.
"Humph! How dare you, a child, blaspheme the gods! The god of Shadowmoon City is the Lord! It was the Lord who guided us here. He will save the world from all suffering! He will lead us to a new life!"
At this moment, a very angry voice suddenly erupted from under the same roof.
I saw a strong man standing up, and at his feet lay a critically ill patient with a black face and purple lips.
He had a cross hanging around his neck and made an Amen gesture after he finished speaking, trying to get God's forgiveness.
After being yelled at, Aurora shrank her neck and leaned closer into Lin Feng's arms.
"Don't be afraid, brother is here." Lin Feng patted Aurora on the back and comforted her.
Then he looked at the strong man who stood up, and glanced at the patient on the ground: "Do you think those people in the church can heal everyone in the world?"
"Isn't it?" The sturdy man stared at Lin Feng, but when he met Lin Feng's sharp gaze, his attitude became a little weak.
"Where are you from?" Lin Feng asked back.
“I’m from the South!”
"The south is quite far. Isn't there a church station of the Holy See in the south? If they can save your family, why would you bring your family all the way here?"
Lin Feng's question stunned the strong man.
He still remembered what the people in the church said to him when he went to church before.
The pastor said, "The reason your family has not recovered is because your faith in the Lord is not strong enough. The Holy Spirit Festival is about to begin. If you are devout enough to the Lord, then go there to prove your faith in the Lord."
Thinking of this, the sturdy man straightened his expression.
"That's because my faith in the Lord is not devout enough! I'm here to prove it all!"
