Chapter 505 Niu Gan Dang wakes up
How come there are over a hundred such impressive-sounding titles as “Saint”?
Whose family can have so many saints?
Throughout the ages, no matter whether it is a decent sect or a cult, as long as there is a saint, isn’t there one in every generation, passed down from generation to generation?
This Church of Light seems to be dealing in wholesale of saints.
and……
Annan asked whatever came to his mind: "How can we still find so many beautiful women nowadays?"
It has been three years since the end of the world. Even a beautiful woman who looks like a fairy cannot withstand the ravages of malnutrition and life pressure.
Dry and frizzy hair, a skinny body, a pale complexion caused by excessive mental stress... No matter how delicate your facial features are, you can't help but look like this.
This is not a TV drama. Even if a beautiful female star puts some dust on her face and draws a few scars, she still looks beautiful. The withering of vitality in the end times radiates from the inside out.
But the eldest sister explained: "Of course we can find one! After being chosen as a saint, a beautiful woman with good facial features will soon become more and more beautiful with the Mother Goddess's inspiration and nourishment!"
Annan was a little surprised. So magical?
If it were that easy to be beautiful, why would those rich ladies spend so much money on maintaining their faces? They should just believe in God.
Could it be some evil beauty snake or something?
The elder sister said, taking a closer look at Annan's face: "Just like you, with plump, translucent and shiny skin."
Then she touched her face and sighed, "It's a pity that my sins are too deep. I can't become a saint and serve the Mother Goddess."
Looking at her expression, it seems that serving the God of Light is more important than having a healthy and beautiful body.
Annan also took a look at her. The elder sister's facial features were still very pretty. She must have been considered quite good-looking when she was young.
Now that I’m older, my eye corners and skin have sagged, and I’ve become skinny, so I’m no longer beautiful.
Speaking of skinny, Annan noticed that everyone here was extremely thin. Regardless of gender, they all had skinny faces.
His cheeks are sunken and his eyes are bulging. If he hadn't worn thick clothes to make his body look rounder, he would have looked like an alien in a science fiction movie.
It's clearly a lively and peaceful place, but it looks like they are not as well fed as the survivors in other cities.
Like Sheng Xia and Fang Yaoyao whom she met in Qingcheng before, although they were also very thin due to hunger, they were not as exaggeratedly thin as them. They looked like a skeleton covered with skin and stood up.
But these people are in very good spirits, and all of them are full of energy. The dry appearance and full spirit form a sharp contrast.
Maybe this is the power of faith?
Annan felt that he had learned almost all the information he could from his elder sister, so he prepared to leave.
Before leaving, I asked, "Can I enter your church if I'm not a believer?"
The eldest sister nodded: "Of course you can. If you are not a believer, you can't just come in casually, but if you become a believer, you can't."
Annan was surprised: "Why is this?"
The eldest sister explained, "The auditorium can only accommodate a limited number of people, so we can't let all the believers squeeze in at once. We need to arrange shifts when we worship the Mother Goddess and listen to the leader's sermons."
Then he pointed in the direction of the auditorium and said, "Today, there are ten groups listening to the sermon. Yesterday, there were nine groups listening."
Annan asked: "The Puan area is so large, what about the believers who live far away?"
The eldest sister said with pride: "You can think of this problem, how could our leader not think of it? There is certainly more than one auditorium in Pu'an District. The leader has a car and will take turns to give lectures in various places."
"Don't worry, once you become believers, you don't have to worry about these problems. You just need to listen to the leader and worship the Mother Goddess well."
Annan asked again: "Is the official leader also from Group 10?"
The eldest sister replied: "That's not the case. Although they are very busy with official duties, they still have certain privileges. They can attend classes whenever they want, without being divided into groups."
Annan: "Then how do you know he will be there today?"
The eldest sister explained, “When I went to worship yesterday, I heard someone casually say that he was going today.”
He paused and emphasized, "Although it was just a casual remark, we believers never dare to speak nonsense."
After Annan asked all the questions he wanted to ask, he said hello and pulled Gu Zhiyu away.
Gu Zhiyu suddenly turned around and asked the elder sister: "If your leader asked you to beat up an official leader, would you do it?"
The mother didn't even think about it and blurted out, "Of course! The leader is delivering God's will. I will do whatever he tells me to do."
Gu Zhiyu glanced at her, said nothing more, and left with An Nan.
As soon as the two of them got back into the car, the three little ones immediately rushed over happily.
Annan stroked his dog's head twice, then reviewed the information he had just obtained with Gu Zhiyu.
At present, it seems that the people of the entire Jishan City are concentrated in this Pu'an District, and have joined an organization called the Church of Light.
However, the submarine the two wanted should still be in the hands of the government. According to what the elder sister said, the government still controls the resources of the army.
But other powers should be hollowed out.
Looking at the appearance of those people today, Annan estimated that if it weren't for the fact that the government still had hot weapons in its hands, there might not be an official base in Jisan City at all.
But she didn't understand, since the official leader was already a believer, why was he still able to guard the military's weapons and resources?
Judging from the reactions of the big sister and the group of people on the street, these believers are completely blindly obeying their leader.
Let alone asking for something from the leader, even if it meant asking for their lives, they would respectfully offer their hands to the "Mother Goddess". How could the leader, as a believer, not completely hand over the resources and power in his hands?
Could it be that this Church of Light was really created by the government? Or maybe his belief in religion is just a veneer, and there are other considerations...
As I was thinking, a shout suddenly came from behind.
"Oh my god! Why is it so dark? Or am I blind?!"
"Ouch! Why can't I move? Is there anyone here? Help!"
Annan and Gu Zhiyu looked at each other. Niu Gandang woke up.
He really lives up to his name, strong as an ox! He drank a whole packet of drugs, but he woke up in just over a day.
Then he quickly opened the trunk before the other party screamed even louder.
The sunlight suddenly shone over, and Niu Gandang was blinded by the light and closed his eyes subconsciously, but he heard a cold female voice in his ear:
"What are you shouting about?!"
