Chapter 42: Flickering Lame

church.

The most prosperous place in the safety zone.

White walls, spire-topped halls, gorgeous and complex carvings, Ukiyo-e stained glass. All of this is full of sacred atmosphere.

Faith is a point that a person firmly believes in, and at the same time, the understanding of everything else in this world is based on this point.

The collapse of faith is a very terrible thing, which makes people involuntarily doubt the entire world.

But fortunately, faith is a very strong thing.

Rollin walked past the ornate bronze sculpture door of the church, with flying angels and hideous demons carved on it.

Since it is a weekday, there are almost no people coming to worship in the church, and only some of the temple's affiliated personnel are cleaning and preparing for the arrival of people in the safe area after get off work.

The roar of the hustle and bustle of machines in the power plant in the distance intertwined with the elegant symphony in the church, giving people a strange feeling.

It seems extremely quiet, but it seems to be trapped in boundless chaos.

It seems that this place should not have appeared in the end of the world.

And just as Luo Lin was lost, a vicissitudes of voice came from behind Luo Lin.

"Order is the basic rule of survival of all things."

Luo Lin turned around suddenly and saw an old man with white beard and kind-looking eyebrows standing behind him looking at him.

The old man was obviously also a staff member of the temple, holding the cross on his chest in one hand and a book of oracles in the other. Although he was quite old, he was in good spirits and seemed to have a breath that could inspire people.

Especially his eyes, it seemed that this was not the eyes that an old man should have. He just looked at Luo Lin calmly, and it shone like the stars at night.

A word in short.

This kind of person can be convinced just by standing there and saying nothing. This is a natural material suitable for being a charlatan.

But who is Rollin?

It was an outstanding young man who was influenced by the great Marxism-Leninism-Mao ideas in the old era and was the successor of socialism!

Let’s not talk about whether we can succeed socialism, but at least we are working hard to build socialism and the great proletariat.

A demon?

Christ Amen?

Sorry, I don’t believe it after nine years of compulsory education.

As a great materialist, Rollin was not very interested in these religions. He always felt that the meaning of religion was just an excuse to deceive people and bring so-called hope to despair.

This is the reason for religion, and its essence is to make unnecessary whitewashings of the world. The so-called missionaries who bring hope are nothing but liars who spread lies of nothingness to comfort people and thus seek benefits.

Perhaps the religious church in this world is different from the original old era, but its essence will not change, because faith represents power, wealth and status.

so.

When Luo Lin heard the old man say something about order and rules, he wanted to be sceptical.

Who are you with? I, Rollin, look like I'm a fool?

Sorry, not like it.

"Have you learned dialectics?" Luo Lin sneered.

The old man was stunned, his mouth slightly opened, and he didn't come back to his senses at all.

In the alternation of the old and new eras, a lot of knowledge disappears and perishes.

After all, in the face of a cruel new era, when humans are still weak, the sense of security brought by a book is not as good as a bread.

So it was very embarrassing at this time. The old man who originally wanted to show off was stunned and didn't know what to say or what dialectics.

Facing the old man's confused gaze, Luo Lin cleared his throat: "Do you think order is the basic rule of survival of all things?"

"Yes." The old man frowned slightly, nodded, and said a large number of doctrines like a machine gun, "Even in the chaotic end times, only eternal order can bring survival, which is also the true meaning of the universe. There has never been eternal chaos, the end times will eventually pass, and eternal order is about to come. On the day when God came, the prosperous era..."

"Stop, stop," Rollin waved his hand, "Come on, let me tell you what order is and what chaos is."

Luo Lin made up his mind to turn the charlatan into a leap. He frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Movement and stillness are opposite, you know this."

The old man nodded. This is the most basic physical law. Even when we arrived at the new era, these basic knowledge still did not disappear.

After all, it still requires learning physics and chemistry to make machinery and missiles.

"Okay, since you know this, it's easy to do." Rollin nodded, "We can use analogy to see order as static and chaos as dynamic."

"The static that takes something as a reference standard is likely to be dynamic for others. If we bring the concepts of order and chaos into it,

The order in your eyes may not be the real order, it is likely to be the chaos in the eyes of other people or animals. The chaos in your eyes may be eternal order and tranquility for other people or animals."

The old man was stunned.

Luo Lin smiled coldly and was self-sufficient.

The old man took a deep breath, and his calmness and calmness disappeared. He opened the book of the oracle with his hands trembling, constantly turning the pages, and his eyes scanned it.

It seems like I want to find something.

But he couldn't find it. After a long time, he just raised his godless eyes and looked at Luo Lin blankly.

"Okay, I'll continue." Rollin smiled and continued, "You said order and chaos are opposite, because they mean the opposite. But have you ever thought that the tranquility brought by order is hidden in the tranquility brought by order, and the tranquility hidden in the tranquility. And only the order created by chaos is the order that can truly bring tranquility."

"So, what you said before was wrong. They are not relative, but are entangled with each other. Movement and stillness, life and death, blessings and misfortunes, chaos and order, conflict and tranquility... Reincarnation is endless and interdependent. If there is no chaos, there will be no real order and so-called tranquility." Luo Lin laughed.

I was very happy now.

The old era has been around China for five thousand years. How could the new era be comparable to that of the new era?

To be honest, Rollin himself doesn't know what he is saying. Anyway, it's right to just talk casually.

The old man's breathing became rapid, the light in his eyes kept flashing, and his frowning brows seemed to be thinking about something.

But his whole body looked into the distance in despair.

At this moment, the point of faith in his heart trembled.

What is faith?

As mentioned before, faith is something that a person firmly believes in, and his understanding of other things in the world is based on this point.

Now, the cornerstone in the old man's heart began to shake.

What comes from it is doubt about the whole life, doubt about the whole world and all one's own cognition.

"Order... tranquility... chaos... conflict... entanglement... are they not opposite each other... How is it possible? Chaos and order are originally two extremes, how can they depend on each other... What we pursue is the ultimate order. Will this also bring chaos?" The old man stood there and murmured with a tangled look on his face.

This has been completely fooled by Rollin.

Luo Lin was about to appreciate the old man's entangled expression, but suddenly several angry voices burst out behind him.

"nonsense!"

"How dare you slander the doctrine! How can tranquility and order stand with chaos! This is the opposite!"

"Bold civilians, bomb the church out of me! It has simply defiled this holy place of order!"

[There will be another chapter updated later, which will take about two or three o'clock. I have been too tired recently, so I will update two chapters every night from now on.]
