Chapter 1395: Foreign Monks Can Chant Scriptures

The priest's words made Zhang Zian a little confused. He had heard rumors of cat abuse nearby from an old woman who scavenged waste, and it was not the first day that cat abuse happened. There were sporadic cases all over the country and even around the world. The related reports are not new, but what is new is...why did this priest want to report to the Catholics in the United States when someone abused cats in Binhai City, asking the American Catholics to solve the matter?

Could it be...the American Catholics that the priest refers to are the internationalist fighter Bethune? But they are Canadians!

To Zhuang Xiaodie, the priest's words were like a bolt from the blue, because this was a memory that Zhang Zian did not have!

Cat abuse incidents, or incidents of malicious abuse of small animals, have existed since ancient times. It would be abnormal and illogical to remove them all, so she reserved some common sense about cat abuse incidents for Zhang Zian, but only limited to Common sense, the memory of "a large-scale cat abuse incident in Binhai City" has been blocked, otherwise it will remind him of the statue of the cat god and the Russian blue cat.

But the priest said just now that cat abuse incidents occurred frequently in the neighborhood, which is actually very close to "massive cat abuse incidents".

Even in his dream, Zhang Zian tends to greet people he has known in real life, because he feels that they are familiar and naturally friendly, so except for those passer-by characters who can only chat with each other for a few words, such as taxi drivers, Most of the people he talks to are people he once knew.

However, she checked his memory repeatedly to confirm that he had never seen this priest in reality.

When he came to this street for the first time in reality, he also met this photography club and that guy named Luo Qingyu at the gate of the church, but he didn't meet this priest, nor was he stopped by him for a chat.

How is this going?

The dream was modified by that dog again?

"Son, your complexion is not very good. Do you want to come in and have a rest?" The priest noticed Zhuang Xiaodie's ugly face and pointed to the church. He was much older than Zhang Zian and the others, and it was normal to call him a child, although in his capacity, calling him a child had another meaning.

Xu was afraid that Zhuang Xiaodie would think elsewhere, so the priest hurriedly explained: "Just sit for a while, we will not preach the doctrine to you against your will."

Zhang Zian asked her: "Do you want to go in and sit for a while?"

"No need." She glanced at the church and always felt that there was something... strange feeling in it, "I really want to know about cat abuse, can you tell me more?"

The priest glanced at the black and white kitten again,

According to the usual thinking, she thought that she was so concerned about the cat abuse incident because she was worried that her cat would be harmed.

"Of course. The sporadic incidents of cat abuse were discovered by the church members nearby. At first we thought it was just a case, but since this time, the incidents of cat abuse have become more and more frequent, and the methods have become more cruel...It is inevitable It scares you, so I won’t go into details, but it’s outrageous, and it doesn’t seem like human beings.”

The priest finished speaking in a compassionate tone, sighed again and again, made the sign of the cross on his chest, and moved his lips slightly, as if he was meditating on something.

"It's so serious..." Zhang Zian frowned when he heard that, what does it mean that it doesn't look like a human being?

Now that the cat abuse incident has been exposed, Zhuang Xiaodie can't hide it anymore, she wants to find out how this non-existent memory appeared.

"So, you said that you are going to ask American church members to solve the cat abuse incident, what's going on?" she asked.

Zhang Zian is also very interested in this topic. He knows that the cat abuse incident can hardly be solved by the government in a short time, but why did the priest ask for help from abroad when it happened in Binhai City? Is this the so-called ——Do foreign monks know how to recite scriptures?

The priest smiled confidently, his eyes lingered alternately on the faces of the two of them, and said, "Children, if you want to know, I have nothing to hide, but this will involve some... past events that may sound incredible to you , you may think that I am using this to preach teachings to you, and feel disgusted, which is contrary to my original intention of talking to you. Even so, do you want to listen?"

"I'm nothing..." Zhang Zian didn't take it seriously. After all, he is an adult and should have his own opinions. This world is full of temptations. If he is tempted by someone with a few words, then in the end it is his own weak will and ears that are to blame. soft.

In addition, he is basically an atheist, he believes in science more, and he doesn't believe in religion and other gods and ghosts.

"I don't mind either," Zhuang Xiaodie said.

"Okay, then let me talk about it." The priest restrained his smile and said solemnly: "According to the feedback from the church members, it is not easy for us to judge a series of cat abuse incidents nearby. More than one abuser later claimed that he was Bewitched by an evil statue, he committed heinous acts against stray cats. We have also conducted private investigations, and the common characteristics of the abusers are introverted and unsatisfactory lives, but they have not acted aggressively before."

Evil Statue?

A certain nerve in Zhang Zian's brain suddenly jumped, and some dusty memories seemed to be coming out soon.

The priest continued: "Actually, this is not the first time that a similar incident has happened. We immediately remembered what happened before - that was in the 13th century when the Germans dug up an equally weird statue underground. , and carried out evil sacrificial activities on it, which aroused the wrath of the Holy See, and Pope Gregory IX promulgated the "Voice of Rome" teaching, which is equivalent to issuing an order to slaughter cats..."

He had a sad face, "God is omnipotent, but we followers may misinterpret His meaning and make irreparable mistakes because of this. I have no intention of defending past mistakes, but this incident is very different from that one." Similarly, we don't want the same mistake to happen again."

Zhang Zian has an impression of this rumor, and seems to have heard it somewhere, but the several versions he heard have a common flaw, that is, it is not clear how this matter ended, the one that was dug up by the Germans What happened to the statue in the end? Regarding this point, different versions of legends are vague. It is not known whether it is deliberately concealed or it is really unknown to outsiders.

"Then how was this matter resolved?" Zhuang Xiaodie asked the question he also wanted to know.

The priest smiled, made the cross on his chest and looked up at the sky piously, "God Almighty did not abandon his children, and sent us an exorcism relic to suppress that evil statue."
