Chapter 612: Everything will be fine, mother.(1/2)
"Sir, you said..."
Maria said terribly.
"Let everyone below go back, don't worry about me," he murmured to himself hoarse and vaguely, "I will watch you in heaven."
"Sir..." Maria wanted to say something else, but Mo Yu could no longer speak, and just looked at her blankly, "Sir, I'll go, I'll go."
Maria immediately went down the hillside, walked into the crowd, and told them Mo Yu's words.
A whole lot of crying came from the crowd, and some people were determined not to leave, so Maria could only persuade them one by one.
"This is the true Jewish king."
Longinus looked at the scene and sighed.
Unfortunately, the Jewish king was destined to be the enemy of Rome.
These Jews did not follow Mo Yu because of the name of a prophet, but because they received Mo Yu's kindness and firmly believed that Mo Yu could lead them to a better life.
This is the personality charm of a leader.
Even Tiberius, far away in Rome, was shocked by Mo Yu's influence and power.
That's why he wanted to get rid of Mo Yu without any means.
When the sun sets, the sky is completely dark and the Passover has begun, the people below have completely left.
Maria watched as the last man was hidden in the dark night before turning around and heading towards the hillside of the Skeleton Land.
The dried corpses nailed to the cross were shaking in the dark night wind, like resentful souls.
Maria walked between these corpses and finally walked to where Mo Yu was.
At this moment, the soldiers had already lit the torches, and the cross that nailed Mo Yu was surrounded by these torches.
The beating flames shone on his body, like a devout servant serving his monarch.
Even when he reached this situation, he still maintained calmness and peace, which made him not like a prisoner who was executed, but like the leader of these Roman soldiers.
Maria walked through the encirclement of these Roman soldiers and walked to Mo Yu, "Sir, they all left."
Mo Yu looked at her in confusion. He could hardly see things clearly and his brain could not think.
He smiled and said softly, "Okay... Thank you..."
Before he finished speaking his last word, he turned into a faint sound of breath.
His head drooped heavily and never got up again.
"Sir...Mr.!"
Maria lay on Mo Yu in pain, and the blood wet her dress.
Joseph also stood up, "Brother Joshua, don't scare me, wake up! wake up!"
As the two cried, Longinus turned his gaze to Mo Yu's instep. The silver spike had disappeared at no time, which meant that the soul of the inmate had completely disappeared.
What remains here is just a dead body.
Mo Yu's pierced feet were released from the confinement of the cross and the silver nails, swaying weakly in the night wind, beating the wooden pillars of the cross.
"Um--"
Longinus winked at the demigod beside him, and one of the demigods walked up, captured Joseph and Maria, and dragged them backwards.
"What are you going to do?"
The surging golden power surged out from Joseph's body, almost breaking free from the demigod's shackles.
"Don't hurry," Longinus looked at Joseph in surprise. Joseph's performance surprised him, but he was not particularly surprised. The Roman Empire was so big that he had seen many geniuses who were better than Joseph.
Talent does not necessarily make a person last, sometimes luck is also important.
"I need to check if he is dead. If he is really dead, you can take him to bury him."
Hearing Longineus's words, Joseph calmed down and seemed a little depressed. He grabbed his mother's hand and tried to get some comfort from her.
Maria held his hand tightly.
Longinus did not pay attention to Joseph and Maria anymore. He walked to Mo Yu's corpse and took out the spear in his hand.
This is actually a magic weapon, a magic weapon specially created by the Empire for Longines. It is extremely strong and sharp, and can cause great pain to the piercing people.
Langhinus shot into Mo Yu's sideways, and the bright red blood immediately flowed down, soaking the gun body. A drop of blood splashed out and sank into Langhinus' eyes.
Longinus rubbed his eyes and found that there was nothing abnormal. It seemed like a drop of ordinary blood, so he raised his head and looked directly at Mo Yu.
There was no reaction, this person was indeed dead.
Longinus sighed. He actually admired Mo Yu very much, but the enemy was the enemy.
If Mo Yu exerted all his strength, they would not be able to catch Mo Yu at all. However, the battle between the thirteen demigods in Jerusalem means that most of the entire city of Jerusalem would be destroyed, and countless people would die in the daytime before the Passover.
Although Longinus also felt that Mo Yu had his own purpose to surrender, at least at that time, he could feel that Mo Yu was really pitying the people in Jerusalem.
This is in sharp contrast to the Roman emperor who killed wantonly and the first citizen of Rome.
Caesar was once a heroic leader at that time, but now her family descendants are not as good as those of the other generations.
If Joshua was born in Rome, he should be a hero like Caesar.
For some reason, Longinus suddenly became a little curious about the religion and doctrines that the man in front of him founded. He decided that after the matter was over, he would learn about what the man did.
"He is dead," Longinus turned around and looked at Joseph and Mary, "You can take him to bury."
According to Roman tradition, the tortured persons on the cross must be nailed for at least three days until wild birds come to peck at their bodies, so as to show the power and invincibility of Rome to the people of the colonies.
But when it comes to Longines' status, there is still the right to decide a corpse.
Joseph was put down, and he walked to Mo Yu's corpse and whispered to Longines beside him, "Thank you."
Then he began to put down Mo Yu's corpse, which was not difficult for a legendary strong man. He took off the nail that nailed Mo Yu and let Mo Yu's body lie on him along with the gravity.
Maria silently picked up the cup on the ground with Mo Yu's blood and took the two nails from Joseph.
The two of them saluted at Longinus with Mo Yu's corpse and walked out.
The Roman soldiers surrounding them naturally made way for a road, and the long torches formed a path of light, guiding Joseph and Mary toward the depths of the night.
All the Roman soldiers watched the two of them, not saluting Joseph and Mary, but saluting the corpse carried by Joseph.
——
When Peter and Judah came back from spreading the gospel, the situation was not optimistic. Even near Jerusalem, where the Protestant denomination had been running for a long time, many devout believers did not believe his words. One reason was that the news was too bizarre, and the other was that they had no evidence.
After all, Mo Yu is dead, so they can do whatever they want. Although Peter firmly believes that Mo Yu is definitely not dead, or exists in another form, he has no way to explain it clearly.
They also need a miracle, a miracle that can confirm their statements, such as the resurrection from the dead.
Moreover, the statement of eternal life is actually inappropriate. If all the people in the world are exempted from sin and gained eternal life after Mo Yu's death, then those who should be sick are still sick, and those who should be dead are still dead. This is still a bit far from the legendary eternal kingdom without illness and disaster.
Even Judas began to doubt whether his thinking had deviated. Mo Yu was actually not trying to atone for sentient beings, but had other strategies.
But the question now is that Mo Yu is dead, and they can't find anyone who can ask the answer to this question.
Compared to Judah, Peter must be much more determined. He firmly believed that their ideas were not a problem, and that the prophets sacrificed for the world.
The two felt that the Romans should not have been guarding this time, so they wanted to go to the Skeleton Land to see Mo Yu to see if they could see Mo Yu for the last time.
Then they ran into Joseph and Mary who were returning with Mo Yu's corpse.
Joseph glanced at them and walked directly past them without saying a word. Maria just nodded to them and then quickly left with her son.
Peter and Judas were caught off guard by this sudden scene, and then they fell into a brief silence.
They followed Joseph and Mary from afar, covering their figures in the night.
Maria, the thirteen disciples, took care of Mo Yu without fear of danger, while the other twelve, including Peter and Judah, who usually enjoyed the most sect resources, became turtles at this moment.
In fact, it is not certain that they have done something wrong. After all, as Mo Yu's disciples, they are accomplices in a sense. Once they go to the execution ground, they may be crucified by the Romans as prisoners who come to the door.
But in the same way, as Mo Yu's disciples, they seemed like cowards without even seeing their prophet for the last time.
Peter felt that Mo Yu had entrusted the sect to him to keep a useful body, while Judas was dissuaded by his wife, and the other disciples had different thoughts.
Human nature is complex.
But the two of them were indeed in a disadvantage and did not even dare to go up and say hello to Maria, so they could only follow her and Joseph from a distance.
During this period, Maria returned home and brought myrrh and agarwood. According to Jewish customs, they wiped myrrh and agarwood on Mo Yu and then wrapped the corpse with fine linen.
Joseph found a rock and cut out a sarcophagus. Judas and Peter wanted to come forward to help, but Joseph was busy at his own expense as if he had not seen the two of them at all.
He carefully polished the sarcophagus to a smooth and delicate state, and put Mo Yu's corpse in with Maria.
Then they took the coffin and Mo Yu in the coffin to a cemetery not far from the execution ground.
Joseph quickly built a new tomb, put Mo Yu's coffin in, and then prepared to seal the tomb door with a huge stone.
"The boss may be resurrected..."
Seeing Joseph sealing the tomb door, Judas hurriedly went up and said, and then he explained Mo Yu's "Golic of Atonement" they understood to Joseph.
At this time, Joseph finally raised his head and looked at Judas. He did not speak, but did not continue to seal the tomb door, but sat at the tomb door and guarded.
To be continued...
