A warm feeling surged through Moses' heart.
Just as he was about to express his thanks, the scepter in his hand suddenly emitted a soft and dazzling light.
Like the brightest star in the night sky, it made his face sacred and solemn.
He was stunned for a moment, then a relieved smile appeared on his lips, and he turned to everyone and said:
"I'm sorry, brothers, it seems the gods are calling me at this moment."
"But rest assured, I know a hidden place that is absolutely safe and will never be found by the Egyptians."
"Take care of yourselves first, I'll be back soon."
No one dares to relax when it comes to matters concerning the gods.
Everyone nodded in agreement and dispersed quietly.
Only an empty space, Moses, and Feng Feng and the other six people who were hidden in the invisible space were left.
"Can we really see God in this illusion? Can He see us?"
There was a hint of disbelief in Feng Feng's voice. His fingers gently stroked the air, trying to capture the miracle that was about to be touched.
It would be ridiculous if even the gods couldn't see them.
Mai Xuan's eyes flashed with exploration. He patted Feng Feng's shoulder with a firm tone.
"Never mind him, let's follow him and see, maybe we'll get something unexpected."
The group quietly approached the mysterious Nile River, and every step seemed to be on the edge of time.
Moses slowly knelt down in front of a seemingly ordinary stone by the river.
Although his voice was soft, it seemed to transcend the boundaries of time and space.
“Lord, I have come, please guide me!”
At this moment, a miracle happened quietly.
Behind the stone, a figure gradually emerged. It was a child.
His eyes were like the brightest stars in the night sky, sparkling with dazzling golden light.
That light contained an indescribable sacredness and majesty.
Jin Shile was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped to the ground and he screamed out loud.
"Oh my god, the god... is actually a child?!"
Mai Xuan quickly came to his senses and explained.
"Don't get me wrong, this isn't a true god descending. This is more like a messenger or spokesperson for the god."
Yes, God, how could he easily come to meet a human in person?
Feng Feng tried to wave his hands in front of the child in an attempt to attract his attention.
But the angel child seemed to be in another world and was unaware of their existence.
"It seems that this divine messenger can't see us either?"
He muttered to himself, his tone mixed with disappointment and relief.
Yunyang frowned and raised his doubts:
"So this illusion is really just for us bystanders to see?"
Just wait until the story is over and then kick them out without them having to do anything?
Tanai seemed unusually calm. He shook his head slightly.
"Don't be impatient, the fun has just begun. Let's wait and see, maybe we can find out more information."
Then the six of them stopped talking.
It was so quiet that only the whispers between Moses and the child of God could be heard.
In the light of the fire, Moses' face was firm and pious, and his eyes were shining with infinite longing for the future.
"Today, I, Moses, will use the will of the Lord as a sword to lead the warriors of my people to sneak into the place where the Egyptian soldiers hid their wine."
"Like a storm in the dark night, it brought unprecedented chaos and unrest to the invincible army."
"Day and night of training, sweat and tears, finally paid off!"
"This is not only a victory of strength, but also a triumph of faith."
"I firmly believe that under God's guidance, the Hebrew people will eventually break free from their shackles and embrace the dawn of freedom. That day will surely come!"
Moses' words were full of passion, as if he could already see the land of freedom spreading out before him.
However.
The voice of the messenger child was like ice, interrupting the excitement.
"Your small victory is but a speck of dust in the world to me."
“What I care about is when can we see real change and when can this long wait end?”
His tone revealed obvious impatience and urgency.
Moses was shocked when he heard this.
He knew what kind of existence he was facing, but he could not help but fight for the future of the Hebrew people.
"Sir, the road to reform and rebellion is thorny and will not be accomplished overnight."
"Although I say decades, that's actually my most optimistic estimate based on the current situation. Every brick and tile that collapses requires the accumulation of time and the persistence of faith."
The envoy's brows were furrowed, and his voice became more stern.
"Decades? The Lord's patience is limited. If the Hebrews continue to stumble forward like this, they may miss the opportunity for salvation!"
When Moses heard this, he felt an unprecedented anxiety and uneasiness in his heart.
He knew very well that without God's protection and guidance, the future of the Hebrew people would be dark.
He argued eagerly, with a barely perceptible tremor in his voice.
"My lord, please listen to me. My people have been enslaved for four hundred years."
"Four hundred years! What a despair and struggle!"
“Now, even if it’s just a few decades of struggle, it’s a great hope and encouragement for us.”
"We long for freedom, dignity, and rebirth under the light of the Lord. Isn't this desire enough for you to see our determination and courage?"
"Decades may seem like a long time to us, but to the Lord, they are just a blink of an eye. Please give us enough time!"
He argued eagerly:
"We, the Hebrews, have silently endured four hundred years of slavery and humiliation in this foreign land."
"In these four hundred years, we have never given up our desire for freedom and our pursuit of justice."
"Now, we finally see the dawn of hope. Are these few decades not enough for the Lord to wait patiently?"
Moses' words contain both a complaint about past sufferings and an earnest expectation for the future.
There is also an implicit meaning of complaint.
The Hebrews were enslaved by the Egyptians for more than four hundred years, and the gods did not care.
Now he comes out to take charge, but he can't even wait for a few decades.
He tried to awaken the compassion and understanding in the heart of the messenger, but the messenger's answer was like a cold judgment.
"That's because the Hebrews themselves are not up to the task and are not qualified to be saved!"
"It is you who, over the long years, have lost your fighting spirit and forgotten your faith."
"If this were not the case, why would I come here in person to remind you not to forget your original intention? Hebrews, if you want to be saved, you must first save yourself!"
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Moses' heart hard.
…
Jin Shile lowered his voice and complained in a manner that was almost whispering, with a bit of joking and helplessness.
"The Hebrews were not up to standard, of course, because they believed in a God who was not up to standard."
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
Everyone was stunned at first, and then the corners of their mouths rose unconsciously.
With a chuckle, laughter gently spread in the night.
But he also deliberately kept a low profile and did not block the conversation in front.
