Chapter 68 Talking to God
After leaving the Church of the Storm, Irene did not go directly back to the Fisher family, but went directly from the North City to the East City of Nasir, where the poor lived.
Her spiritual energy was almost exhausted today. She could no longer continue to monitor through the "Mystic Ear Technique" and could only do other things.
"Hello, Ms. Irene."
"Thank you very much, Ms. Irene."
"Ms. Irene, it's great to meet you."
The poor people kept greeting her, and Irene responded calmly and skillfully.
I have come here again and again, how many times have I come here?
I can't remember.
Over the past ten years, Dongcheng District has undoubtedly become an area she is extremely familiar with, and almost everyone here knows her.
Dongcheng District is full of shanties and people are struggling to make ends meet. There were many children who used to make a living by stealing and begging, but now they have all become part of the orphanage.
Her shoes stepped on the muddy ground, not caring about the dirt, and she calmly came to the wooden house where Grandma Nada lived. The old woman's eldest son, Moore, the leader of the largest thieves gang in Nasir, bowed his head in salute.
"Ms. Irene, you are here again. Do you want to talk to my mother about something?"
Irene shook her head and said calmly:
"No, I'm here to find you. I've been asking your subordinates to investigate the Isaac family. Don't you think you've found nothing?"
The old woman's eldest son, Moore, was short and thin with a hot temper, but he was very respectful to his mother and Irene. Not only was he never angry with them, but he was also willing to do almost anything they said.
"There is actually a new discovery recently. Mrs. Isaac's son has disappeared for a few days. At least the people who were watching outside haven't seen him during this period of time."
He paused, bent down slightly and continued, "Of course, he could also be sick and has been resting at home. Apart from this information, there is no other news worth reporting."
"Understood."
Irene nodded and was about to leave, but Moore stopped her hesitantly and respectfully, smiling apologetically:
"By the way, Ms. Irene, you should go in and take a look at my mother. I feel like she hasn't been doing well lately."
Of course, Irene would not mind this request, so she entered the wooden house and looked at Grandma Nada. The old woman was sitting in the house eating beans. She was very happy to see Irene, and the two chatted for a while with smiles on their faces.
Irene also discovered that old lady Nada's mental state was not right. She was clear-headed, even a little excited, and kept talking incessantly.
After the examination, she found that old woman Nada was not sick. Instead, she was too excited because her body became healthier and stronger after gaining extraordinary powers.
"It's okay, she's just too happy. Maybe it's because you three are so filial." Irene said to Moore before leaving.
“I see.”
Moore breathed a sigh of relief. He thought there was something wrong with his mother, so he finally felt relieved.
In his eyes, Ms. Irene was simply a messenger sent by God. It was a blessing from God and he and his mother were extremely lucky to meet her!
"In fact, my mother is old, and I'm afraid she won't be able to accompany us for much longer. My brothers and I are fully prepared for this."
Moore smiled sincerely and said:
"But even if there is not much time left, we still hope that she can be happy. Ms. Irene, you can give our mother a wonderful old age without any illness. This is a great favor to us."
Irene smiled calmly and responded calmly: "This is what I should do. The power God has given me should be used to save the world."
Moore continued with a smile, "Well, I guess the Lord of Redemption has also been watching and affirming your actions. He will bless Ms. Irene to live to be a hundred years old."
Irene was stunned for a moment and forced a smile.
Afterwards, she still did not return home directly, but went to the orphanage in the town to check on the children's health and education, and finally returned home when it was getting dark.
Even though Irene was very tired, she did not sleep. Instead, she checked on the servants and guards and the progress of their work.
Because her life was too busy, she did not have dinner with her family, but ate something casually by herself.
Before going to bed, Irene knelt down in the basement, calmly raised her head and stared at the black transparent bottle, recalling that moment in the past.
I will never forget the experience of that night.
"Will you forgive me, my Lord?"
"I have reported the Isaac family. As a result, they will be investigated by the Storm Church. At that time, the mysterious object you want may also be taken away..."
"But I have no other choice. The Fisher family is still very weak. Going against the extraordinary people of the Poseidon Cult alone is simply a suicide act."
"Please forgive my willfulness..."
She was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "Actually, I, I feel very tired too."
"There are so many things to do in the past ten years, and they are endless. There is no way I can finish them all."
"But the Fisher family is still very weak, just like Chris in my arms, fragile and fragile. I must always take care of the entire family."
"But I sometimes thought about escaping, leaving everything behind, even abandoning Chris, and leaving Nasir alone to start a new life."
Irene was silent for a while, then shook her head and said:
"But that would be too selfish. I could never be that kind of person."
There was no response from the basement. There was no sign of the so-called punishment or the comfort that was impossible to come.
Irene suddenly showed a helpless and relieved smile. Byrne and Chris must have thought that she had been praying in the basement.
God, listen to everything in my deepest heart.
"In fact, at the beginning I thought I was not afraid of anything, and I felt that sacrificing for my family was something I should be proud of. When I gave up my life, I felt extremely satisfied."
"But as the Fisher family continued to develop, Chris gradually grew up, and everything became more and more regular... I couldn't help but imagine what the Fisher family would be like in the future.
She gently stroked her dyed black hair, which had actually turned white long ago, constantly reminding the girl that her life was forever passing and that she no longer had a future.
"In the dead of night, I felt an extremely great fear, tears streaming down my face. I understood that it was because I had more expectations that I was more afraid of the future that was about to end."
“I don’t want to die.”
She gradually changed her body posture, no longer kneeling but sitting on the ground, lowered her head, hugged her legs, and sighed.
"I have looked up many books, trying to find a way to restore my lifespan, but it seems that there is really no way..."
“I want to live.”
The next morning, Irene immediately asked the captain of the guard, Theo, to be the coachman and take her to the streets near the Isaac family, and continued to monitor through the "mystical ear technique" in the carriage.
Captain Tio's guard also had great respect for Irene, who managed family affairs in an orderly manner.
He used to think that the girl would not be as capable and sophisticated as Lucius, but now he completely understood how strong and wise she was, she just lacked experience.
After a night's rest, her spiritual power was fully restored to full. Irene sat in the carriage and calmly consumed her spiritual power to activate the "Mystic Ear Technique" and continued to monitor the situation of Isaac's family.
After a long period of monitoring, when Irene was almost running out of spiritual energy, she was suddenly shocked by what Mrs. Isaac said.
"We only have two days left. Once the ceremony is complete, let's reconfirm our route out of Nasir and the East Coast."
"By then, the entire Nasir will have suffered heavy casualties. The bishop of the Storm Church will have to provide disaster relief on the one hand, and search for our traces on the sea on the other. It should be impossible for them to find us."
Two days?
Erin swallowed, feeling a strong sense of uneasiness deep in her heart.
The last two days?
If you are born immortal, why do you need to practice cultivation?
As soon as Lu Changsheng entered the immortal gate, he suddenly remembered his past life. He was unexpectedly reborn in a love game with the background of cultivating immortals, and he was the reincarnation of the ultimate villain BOSS in the game - the Six Desires Demon!
As the reincarnation of the devil, he was born with endless lifespan and immortality.
But once a thought arises, a hundred obstacles arise. Once you have evil thoughts, you become a demon. Once you become a celestial demon...
In this era when the immortal sect is at its peak and all things are returning to their origin, no demon can survive!
“But if you don’t get involved in cause and effect, don’t get involved in dust, and don’t fall into the devil’s way, you can live forever.”
"You cultivate immortality to achieve longevity, but since I already have longevity, why should I cultivate immortality again?"
…
"You have reincarnated three times, and you should have achieved a happy ending with him. Why are you obsessed with me?"
"The secular world has nothing to do with me; the demons and monsters causing chaos are not my wish."
…
"Big Brother, that evil woman has come to your door and wants to ask you for the Three Thousand Questions!"
"Tell her to come back and ask again in three thousand years."
