Chapter 2 Exchange Transfusion Therapy
The town of Agate Lake is located in the heart of the Principality of Gran.
The thick linen clothes and the biting cold wind from the extreme north made Lei Luo curl up and left the church in a daze, thinking about how to face his father's disappointment when he went home.
Depressed, sad and sad.
Before he knew it, Lei Luo walked to the door of Bob's bakery in the town and stood behind the queue.
Raising his head, Lei Luo looked at the two-headed parrot in the cage at the store.
"Hey, you can't eat less when you eat, you know how to eat every day. It's because of you that I have become so fat, you can't eat less when you eat!"
Another bird head of the parrot who was eating bread crumbs replied, "Shut up, you long-winded ghost, I will peck you to death."
The bird who likes to nag her head shrank its neck and turned its head and found that it was looking at Lei Luo who was dazed, and said angrily: "Look at your father? Have you never seen such a handsome Digo parrot!"
A black line appeared on Lei Luo's forehead.
Fortunately, fewer and fewer people were queuing up to buy bread in front, and soon arrived at Leiluo.
The bakery owner is a tall and fat man with a beard on his cheeks. He looked down at the person who was buying bread in front of him. He was Bob, who was qualified as a missionary in Lei Luo this year, and the bright gentleman of the town by donating gold coins.
In the glass window, there were soft and sweet white bread. Lei Luo's stomach was croaking, but he couldn't help but point to the piles of black bread beside him and said, "I want a kilogram of black bread."
He took the twenty copper coins handed over by Lei Luo and took out a cold and hard black bread. Bob glanced at the person behind him.
Lei Luo picked up the black bread and hugged it tightly in his arms, hoping to make it softer through his body temperature. He curled up and ran towards home in the biting cold wind.
Squeak.
Close the wooden door, Lei Luo took out the black bread from his arms and hung it on the wall, and added two pieces of firewood to the fire. The warm fire made Lei Luo shiver twice.
Cough cough cough.
The father on the sickbed looked at Lei Luo, tried to make a prayer gesture, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, God of Light, to send my son back safely."
"Father."
With a strong smell of blood, Lei Luo looked at his father who was receiving bloodletting treatment from the doctor, looked at the doctor with a focused look on the side, and said with concern: "Doctor, how is my father?"
The doctor released the blood from his father's body through the syringe and flowed into the wooden tub.
Tick, tick, blood keeps flowing, it seems that only in this way can we take away the dirt in the body, welcome new blood through future faith, and overcome illness.
In this era, bloodletting therapy is the universal treatment method for all rural doctors, and it is also the only treatment method for civilians who cannot afford to invite priests to perform the blessing of light in remote areas.
The doctor wiped the bloody needle and said calmly: "I have released the dirt in his body. Let's see if his faith in the Lord is devout enough."
"My father will definitely recover!"
Lei Luo said firmly.
The doctor left the wooden house with silver coins without saying much.
Leiluo's father was a famous hunter in the town. Only in this way could he spend silver coins for Leiluo to go to church to study and learn to read and try to pass the preacher qualification.
Unfortunately, my father was attacked by a monster this autumn. After returning, his wounds did not heal for a long time. Even though he asked the doctor to bleed several times, he still failed to heal his injuries. Instead, his body became weaker and weaker. Many people in the town secretly said that he was not pious enough to believe in the God of Light, so he did this.
It is precisely because of this that Leroy begged the pastor to make himself a missionary to prove that his father was a devout believer of the God of Light.
"How is the assessment result?"
The room was terriblely depressed, with only the crackling sound of the fire burning.
Facing his father's inquiry, Lei Luo did not respond and did not dare to look at his father's disappointed look.
After busy and silently pouring out the blood of his father in the wooden basin, Lei Luo returned to his room, closed the door, and sat on the bed. Only then did he cry sadly because of his guilt towards his father, blame himself for not becoming a clergy and let his father get the mercy of the God of Light.
With his hands stretched out, Lei Luo looked at the trace of warm light gradually emerging from his palm, and his eyes were lost.
The power of prayer is also called the power of light.
The God of Light is not an illusory legend. Every devout believer can feel its existence. Some clergy can even summon part of its power and descend to the world, which is what people usually call the power of light and blessing technique.
The only way to summon this power is devout faith.
Continuously expand believers and inspire confused people to join the faith of light, they will be more favored by the God of Light.
Human beings live in a region called the Stars. There are many principalities in the territory. In addition to the God of Light, there are many of their own local believers, but they are all the gods of the God of Light.
Near many human priests, there are also some familiar aliens living in the world, including elves, dwarves, dwarves, barbarians, etc., but most of them have been included in the rules of the human system, integrated into each other, and their beliefs do not conflict.
But on the other side of the vast melting pot desert, a terrifying area called the nightfall, lives a group of terrifying heretics. Humans know very little about it, only knowing that it is an evil place where all the popes will launch the crusades after they ascend the throne.
In addition, some pirates have spoken word by word of mouth in the vast and endless sea areas where terrifying giant marine creatures are raging, and there is a vast continent ruled by other intelligent creatures. Some people even rumored to have seen cities floating in the sky, which were later considered nonsense.
However, there are some terrifying creatures that ordinary people cannot imagine in the depths of the ocean, which is true.
Sobering from the loss of mind, the light in Lei Luo's hand gradually dissipated, and he was a little tired and gasping for breath.
The summoning of divine power by mortals is a great burden to the body. Although the divine power summoned by Lei Luo has almost no combat ability and cannot display blessings. He can only show the existence of the God of Light in front of some foolish people without faith, comfort the soul, and use it to spread faith, it still makes Lei Luo feel a little tired.
From this we can imagine the burden that the successive popes have suffered to summon the divine power of light.
Shaking his head and dispelling his fatigue, Lei Luo took out the "Great Festival of Light" and recited it over and over again, constantly strengthening his beliefs.
"The Creator of the God of Light created the kingdom of heaven. The human beings who lived in the kingdom of heaven opened the box of original sin because of desire, causing human beings to fall into the box of demons and come to the world of star curtain. Only by selfless dedication to light and completing self-salvation can they return to heaven..."
"Lei Luo!"
The call from his father came from outside the door. Lei Luo, who was reciting the "Great Festival of Light", hurriedly got up and ran towards his father's room.
"Cough cough cough cough cough cough cough."
My father sat upright against the bed and placed a few items neatly on the bed.
With the light of fire, Lei Luo saw these things clearly, namely a book, a strange necklace, and a badge.
Lei Luo held his father and complained: "You should have a rest."
My father is a stubborn person. Although his body has been thin after several bloodletting treatments, and he is even trembling when sitting on the bed, the stubbornness in his eyes is still alive and he said in a low voice: "My own body, I know that it is impossible for me to survive this winter."
"No! The kind God of Light will surely give mercy on your pious faith. Even if you are misunderstood by many people in the town, the God of Light knows your piety!"
Lei Luo has been doing his best to avoid this topic.
On the contrary, my father's eyes looked at Lei Luo became soft and loving than ever before, as if he was looking at his lover who died seventeen years ago.
"Your mother is the most devout believer in the world and the most beautiful woman in the world. She dedicated everything to the God of Light she believed in. In the last moment of childbirth, she chose to dedicate herself, sacrifice herself, and leave all her love to you."
Lei Luo lowered his head and kept silent.
For seventeen years, Lei Luo has never celebrated his birthday because it was his mother's day of worship.
"As for me...hehe, the mercy of the God of Light?"
Suddenly, my father's dignified and pious face turned into pain and self-deprecating, and tears were everywhere, looking at Lei Luo with guilt.
"How could the great God of Light give mercy to a descendant of a wizard whose body is flowing with the dirtiest blood in the world?"
wizard?
Didn’t that kind of thing be crucified by the church and burned to death? Has it become a legend?
Lei Luo looked at his father in disbelief. Is this the father who even comes back to thank God of Light? He actually said that he is a descendant of a wizard!
"You heard it right, Lei Luo, you and my ancestors were the wizards who spread the Black Death in that dark age, and were terrified and eventually were nailed to the stolen rack and tried by the church one by one!"
Thumb thumb!
Lei Luo kept retreating, constantly denying his father's words. He was a devout believer of the God of Light. How could he be involved in connection with the wizard? This is impossible!
legend……
It was a dark age that was shrouded in death and terror. The wizards controlled the power that ordinary people could not resist. They collected the blood and eyes of children to conduct evil experiments. They attacked all clergy of the Church of Light at will. In the peak years of darkness and terror, they even released the plague of death. The terrifying Black Death raged, which once put humanity on the verge of extinction!
There are corpses everywhere in the city, and there are not one ten villages left.
It was not until later that as one wizard after another was crucified by the church, they cursed everyone, until the flames burned their bodies and the shrill wailings continued for a long time that humans gradually survived and multiplied, and established one principality after another.
"This is impossible!"
Lei Luo's face was pale.
"Ahem! I have also questioned my father, and he only left one sentence."
Chapter completed!
