Chapter 98 Attack: Truly full of mercy.
The feeling of being stared at was so strong that it burned Li Zi's back.
Li Zi secretly thought that the spy who failed to hide his tracks yesterday might be at work again.
While pretending not to notice anything.
As if the quarrel between those people had nothing to do with her, she continued to walk forward slowly.
The dull daily life finally seems to have some excitement.
She was so excited that she couldn't help but want to make things bigger.
Along the way, she tried hard to resist the urge to look back, wanting to see if she could find the person.
It would be fun if we could actually figure it out.
She couldn't help but want to see the temple deacon's frustrated expression.
Along the way, Li Zi looked up at the bird perched on the eaves, and then squatted down to pick up a few intact leaves. She seemed to be very busy, showing the girl's naive nature.
Hiding in her shadow and following the figure walking out of the house, looking at all this, she felt a lot of curiosity and confusion.
She doesn't understand.
She has heard countless believers' private prayers and seen the cries of many frustrated people, and she knows human emotions well.
Naturally, I know that this girl is at the center of the storm at the moment.
Betrayal by friends, oppression by teachers, indifference by family members...
The many emotions intertwined with each other, putting her in shackles that led to death and abuse.
According to common sense, if most people were to feel the same emotions as her at this moment, they would probably be very sad and heartbroken, and would want to hide in a dark corner to lick their wounds.
If one has a slightly more intense temper, he or she will force himself or herself to stand in the center of the crowd, defending himself or herself with anger and despair.
No matter how strong a person's inner resistance is, he will be extremely sad when he is abandoned by his friends and relatives.
However, when these things happened to Li Zi, she seemed like an outsider.
It seems that all the bad comments in the world will not be taken to heart and will not affect her mood.
Why?
Li Zi couldn't see that there was a cloud of mist hidden in her own shadow.
She did these insignificant things purely to catch the person who was monitoring her out of the corner of her eye without alerting the enemy.
All her leisurely appearances were fake. In fact, she was in a highly sensitive state, trying hard to pay attention to the changes around her.
But this time, the person who was following her seemed to be hiding very well. He was about to cross the bridge and return to the bedroom, but she had not caught him yet.
In desperation, Li Zi gave up the idea of catching anyone and decided to go home directly.
Unexpectedly, just as he reached the middle of the bridge, a girl in a white robe with her face covered rushed out and blocked his way.
She seemed like a madman, screaming and stumbling, stabbing Li Zi again and again with the knife she had just stolen from the restaurant.
This was the first time Li Zi had seen such a scene since she was a child.
She was so frightened that her hair stood on end. She didn't understand what was going on, so she ran towards a safe place.
After running for a distance, Li Zi finally recognized the man based on his posture and habits.
As she ran away, she yelled, "Wan Fangfei? Are you crazy? We have no past or present grudges, why are you trying to kill me?"
In fact, when she shouted these words, she already vaguely knew the answer.
Wan Fangfei is the first-in-line nun, that is, the first choice when a formal nun needs to be replaced. She is recognized as the most qualified new generation to become a deacon of the church.
In order to get closer to God, this girl has become very strict in her self-discipline on a daily basis.
In addition to the scriptures arranged in the church, she also adds lessons for herself in private.
He is also very pious when worshipping gods, and his head is often swollen from bumping it. However, he treats people gently and calmly, and his appearance and inner qualities are consistent...
It can be said that she can do all that God requires of her: cleanliness, humility, and loving the world.
Unlike the hypocritical deacon of the temple, she truly respects and loves the Goddess of Daydream and respects her in everything.
Wan Fangfei has a maturity and stability that does not belong to her age group, and usually the group of nuns in preparation follow her lead.
Such a good person, but at this moment he had an emotional breakdown.
He abandoned all propriety, righteousness, integrity, and all his beliefs and persistence, and was madly trying to kill Li Zi, who was chosen as a sacrifice.
Why is it so crazy?
Li Zi understood a little, but she found that if it were her, she would never do that.
But she and Wan Fangfei usually have a good relationship, although not as close as Yao Xinyue.
However, when faced with her obedient behavior, Li Zi did feel an inexplicable sense of respect for her teacher.
People always admire characteristics that they don't have.
Because of these relatively good impressions, even though she was being assassinated at this moment, she still didn't want Wan Fangfei to hurt herself with the dinner knife when she lost control, nor did she want to be stabbed while hiding.
I had to hold my breath and dodge left and right flexibly.
While hiding, she was glad that this was where she lived. In order to prevent Li Zi from becoming a young lady, her mother did not provide her with any servants.
She lives here alone.
Apart from the daily patrols, there are usually no people passing by.
Otherwise, their embarrassment would be seen by others.
Li Zi didn't want that.
Facing the crazy girl in front of him, Li Zi unleashed great potential, dodging left and right and going around behind.
Try your best not to hurt yourself or Wan Fangfei.
She spent a long time trying and finally found the right opportunity to grab Wan Fangfei's wrist.
While she was still not reacting, he dodged the dinner knife and threw it far away onto the lawn.
Seeing Wan Fangfei was so blood-thirsty that she was about to go over to pick up the knife, Li Zi cursed inwardly, turned around and threw her to the ground, pinning her down so that she could not move.
She rode on Wan Fangfei's waist, holding her wrists with both hands.
Seeing her struggling to kill herself, Li Zi's bad temper was also aroused.
She shouted at Wan Fangfei, "If you want to offer a sacrifice, then it's your turn. I don't want to be a sacrifice at all!"
Wan Fangfei was sitting at the long table next door. She was very close to Li Zi and did hear her mumbling that she didn't want to be sacrificed.
But in her opinion, it was a kind of boasting statement after enjoying preferential treatment.
He didn't take what Li Zi said seriously at all. He looked at her with anger in his eyes.
She struggled and cried out in despair, "Why should all the grace of God be yours? I don't accept it, I won't allow it!"
"Do you think this is a good thing? Did you know that the sacrifice they are talking about will kill people?"
Li Zi sneered for a while, then lowered her head and her expression became very ugly.
"When the time comes, my body, my bones, my flesh and blood will all become the medium for the gods to descend. I don't know where my soul will go; it might even disappear. Do you want this honor?"
Wan Fangfei understood what she meant this time. She was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.
"Can you please stop thinking about harming me?" Li Zi felt a little tired of keeping the other person under control, so she started to negotiate with Wan Fangfei.
The latter was horrified by the death she described.
He was also saddened that the God he believed in was actually a bad guy who wanted to kill people, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Li Zi glanced at her and found that the girl was in a very depressed mood.
However, his jealousy and hatred towards himself had disappeared, and he probably wouldn't think of killing her for a while.
So he sighed softly and turned over and sat up.
Hugging his knees, he asked, "Didn't the deacon of the temple agree to a new vote? There won't be a pre-selection this time, so it should be fair. Why are you looking for me instead of canvassing for votes?"
"I heard it..." Wan Fangfei felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and she was unwilling to even get up.
Just kept lying on the ground like a dead body.
Li Zi was intrigued by her. After waiting for a long time but seeing no response from her, she couldn't help but urge her, "What did you hear? Tell me."
Wan Fangfei raised her hand to wipe away the tears that she could not control, then sat up and looked at Li Zi.
She sniffed and said, "When I was helping the deacon deliver something, I heard people chatting inside. They said that this vote was just a cover...
You are the only one who can be sacrificed.
No matter what the process is, the final votes will definitely choose you to be sacrificed..."
So this girl who had always been obedient and well-behaved completely lost her mind when she found that she could never get close to the god she believed in.
After hearing this, Li Zi was silent for a long time.
She thought that after a month of receiving the news, she would be able to accept the fact that she would eventually die calmly.
But after discovering that he was the only one who could offer the sacrifice.
The anger and shock in my heart still spread out layer by layer.
This made Li Zi feel as if her whole life was fake.
The more than ten years of peaceful and smooth life before were just a greenhouse deliberately created by others.
All the sunshine and rain that nourished her growth were actually fabricated to allow the gods to come to the world.
Li Zi couldn't help but clench her fists and muttered, "Daydream God...what exactly are you? Since my body is prepared for you, why have you never appeared in my dreams all these years?"
Hearing this, Wan Fangfei was stunned.
She didn't even have time to doubt her life, and couldn't help but come over and ask, "What did you say? You've lived in the base for so many years, haven't you ever had an oracle dream?"
I remember that during prayers, the deacon would sometimes ask you about your dreams, and you always answered them well."
The reason why the people in the Dawn Base believe in the God of Daydream wholeheartedly.
It’s simply because they can truly feel God’s presence with them.
When they have doubts in their daily lives, they just need to recite the corresponding scriptures and offer food and wine as sacrifices.
In less than a week, you will hear the oracle in your dreams.
From small things like which store to celebrate a birthday at and naming a child, to big things like whether to leave the base to preach and whether to marry and have children.
As long as you are pious enough, you will get the corresponding omen answers in your dreams.
When the base was first established, those who could not hear the oracle were optimized layer by layer because of their dull perception and inability to receive divine guidance.
Some people simply could not offer their faith to something so illusory and inexplicable, so they took the initiative to move out of the Dawn Base, which had a very strange overall atmosphere.
Some of them insisted on taking various jobs that required them to leave the base without any guidance, and unfortunately died.
After layers of screening, almost all the people living in the base today have the ability to dream.
Especially those nuns who are not yet adults, who are pure enough and sensitive enough, are especially favored by the God of Daydreams.
Wan Fangfei is like this.
Ever since she could remember, the gods in her dreams had been her guiding light.
Especially after her twin sister passed away, she prayed to God, hoping to see her again.
And her sister really returned to her dream that night.
This time, the look she gave Li Zi was truly filled with pity.
During this period of time of thinking, Wan Fangfei found that she didn't feel anything about Li Zi's impending sacrifice and loss of her life.
I even vaguely feel that this is a very great thing.
If the gods chose her, she would be willing to sacrifice herself.
Of course, now that she has chosen someone else, it would be nice if I could live a few more decades.
Li Zi sighed heavily: "...Actually, I don't dream. I made all that up."
Over the years, she had been chosen by the deacons of the temple to interpret her dreams hundreds, if not thousands, of times.
However, Li Zi never discovered that the dream was fake.
Sometimes I just say I didn’t pray the night before and get away with it.
Sometimes I would make up some irrelevant things as answers based on what others said.
Sometimes, the writing style of the Spring and Autumn Period is used to regard things that have happened before as guidance from dreams.
The mist hidden in her shadow, upon hearing this, suddenly understood why she had regained consciousness without accepting any sacrifice after her resurrection this time.
In her territory, there actually appeared a person who could not be controlled, had no desires, and possessed a true self.
