Chapter 547 Extra, Yuan Kongye [4000 words]
June 2046 in the Western calendar.
In early summer, the temperature in Tianhai City becomes very hot.
The monsoon wind blowing from the east coast cannot dispel the high temperature of the subtropical climate, but it brings humid air.
Summer in the south always comes earlier than in the north.
Even the cicadas on the banyan trees are more diligent than those in the north, climbing up the treetops early and making upsetting cries of "Cicada~Cicada~".
This voice lingered outside the courtyard of the Theological Church, impatient and slightly impatient.
It looked like a group of people arguing about something in a hurry.
In a Japanese-style courtyard, a girl in a witch costume sat under the eaves, her hands quietly placed on her sides, looking curiously at a green cicada on the treetops outside the courtyard.
As a saint of the Tianhai branch of the Theological Sect, Yuan Kongye was trained as the successor of the church from childhood to adulthood.
Her parents claimed that she had some extraordinary abilities.
Therefore, every member who joins the church will be baptized and blessed by her.
When she was very young, she only found this ritual very interesting.
Although she didn't understand why those believers looked at her with such pious eyes, she didn't hate the feeling of being respected and loved.
However, as she grew older, she began to realize that she did not have any special abilities.
The so-called blessing ceremony is just a way to comfort the believers, and it is even a tool for her parents to make money.
Gradually, Yuan Kongye no longer liked this kind of thing.
She couldn't bear the way the believers looked at her anymore.
It was like the eyes of a drowning swimmer grasping at straws.
The growth of age made her feel rebellious.
However, she could not resist her parents' request.
Perhaps from the bottom of her heart, she also enjoyed this feeling of being respected and loved.
But once people know that she is just an ordinary girl and not a saint with extraordinary abilities, she will lose all the identity and status she has now, as well as her superior life.
Therefore, Yuan Kongye, who was in adolescence, has always been confused in this kind of comfort and self-blame.
She kicked the wooden clogs on her feet, and the white socks wrapped her feet tightly.
The Divine Religion originated from neon, so she always wears the clothes of a neon witch.
The red and white clothing has a conspicuous and weird taste.
At least in Tianhai City, she rarely went out wearing this outfit.
The church behind me was very noisy.
She didn't know what they were arguing about, because this group of people always did strange things.
So she went to the courtyard to get some fresh air.
But when I raised my head, I saw layers of white clouds in the sky moving slowly like mountain peaks, pressing towards my head.
The air is dull.
Yuan Kongye's chest felt uncomfortable.
It seemed that something was about to happen. She put her right hand on her chest and could feel her heart beating faster.
"Did...something bad happen?"
Yuan Kongye said to himself.
At this moment, the wooden door behind him was pushed open with a crash.
Yuan Kongye turned around suddenly and saw the great elder of the Divine Sect, Uncle Tan, who had always cared for her since childhood, looking at her seriously.
"Holy Lady, I have something to inform you. Just two hours ago, the plane the leader and his wife flew to Kyoto crashed over the East China Sea."
boom!
It was as if something exploded in Yuan Kongye's mind, leaving her brain blank.
As for what the great elder said later, she couldn't hear clearly.
I saw that the great elder's face was more serious and cold than usual, and even his funny bald head looked like a cold stone.
In the summer of 2046, Yuan Kongye's life trajectory changed dramatically.
From heaven to hell.
……
……
The funerals of Hara Suiyun and my wife Kamiko were held a month later.
Their bodies were never found.
However, with their deaths, Theological Religion also faced a huge crisis.
In the past, as the leader and high priest of the church, Yuan Suiyun and his wife claimed to their followers that as long as they believed in theology, they would be able to achieve happiness and avoid disasters.
Countless believers are obsessed with the fantasies they spin.
There are down-and-out people who are frustrated in life, there are patients suffering from chronic diseases, there are family members seeking medical treatment for their wives and children...
In order to make false promises, they donated all their property to the Theological Sect, and even defrauded their relatives and friends to donate their money to the two of them.
When Yuan Suiyun and his wife died, their dreams instantly shattered. Many people woke up and realized that they had been deceived.
At their funeral, Yuan Kongye wore black clothes and knelt before the soul.
No one came to express condolences, but the angry congregants came over and angrily insulted the whole family.
Those once friendly and gentle faces have now become extremely twisted and terrifying.
Only her childhood sweetheart Zheng Yixian, wearing a black suit, stood firmly in front of her.
However, Zheng Yixian's strength alone is too weak.
Hundreds of angry congregants at first just insulted Yuan Kongye and his family.
But soon, this emotion turned violent!
They angrily smashed and smashed Yuan Kongye's home and took away everything they could.
Some people even had nowhere to vent their anger, so they rushed over and kicked over the memorial tablets of Yuan Suiyun and his wife.
Yuan Kongye watched all this in horror. She cried and begged them not to do this.
"Please, take whatever you want. But keep the photos of my parents, please!"
Seeing Yuan Kongye's pleading appearance, those believers felt the pleasure of revenge.
Someone slapped her in the face.
"You damn liar, your whole family deserves to die, even if you die a hundred times it won't make up for your sins!"
Yuankong's face bulged in the middle of the night, but he protected the photo of his parents and hugged it tightly in his arms.
Zheng Yixian stood in front of her and begged in a humble tone: "Aye is innocent. If you have any grievances, just vent them on me. Let her go! She is still a child."
Naturally no one would refuse such a request.
What's more, the anger in their hearts has been burning brightly, and they must have a place to vent.
As a result, Zheng Yixian was quickly knocked to the ground by a group of people, and fists and kicks rained down on her.
Yuan Kongye held the photo of her parents and looked at the scene in front of her with a horrified expression. She was trembling and her body was like sieving chaff.
Among the crowd, someone suddenly reached out to her.
"Father pays his debt to his son. Since you are alive, you little liar, you must atone for everything your parents have done!"
Yuan Kongye's mind went blank, and she only felt that her body quickly became cooler.
"Stab--stab--"
She was pushed violently to the floor.
Countless hands stretched out towards her body.
She had never felt like this before. The excessive stimulation made her mentally numb and her body even lost feeling.
All she knew was that every part of her body seemed to be crawling with countless ants.
Even if she wanted to open her mouth and scream for help, she couldn't.
At this moment, she was like a doll being played with by countless people.
The bald head she once loved to caress also crawled onto her body.
-----------------
Yuan Kongye once thought she was dead, but she survived after all.
But what about surviving?
She lost everything she owned.
During the two years she spent recuperating in a sanatorium, she thought about ending her life numerous times.
It was Zheng Yixian who stayed with her all the time, telling her that nothing was her fault and that she was the best girl in the world.
But for Yuan Kongye, this warmth was not enough to fill the huge hole in his heart.
"Now, Zheng Yixian, do you think this world is too dirty?"
Yuan Kongye sat in a wheelchair and looked at the snowy scene outside the window, and said to Zheng Yixian calmly.
"If gods really exist, why don't they cleanse the world?"
Zheng Yixian came over and slowly knelt down in front of her, his eyes filled with pity and sincerity.
But he couldn't answer Yuan Kongye's question.
Yuan Kongye smiled weakly.
"That's right, there are no gods in this world. Everything is just a matter of human suffering."
"My parents are liars who play with people's hearts. The members of the Theological Sect are greedy and ignorant believers. Even I... am a cowardly and incompetent doll who is at the mercy of others."
She suddenly straightened up her expression.
"There should be no such thing as humans in this world."
Zheng Yixian held her cold hand and comforted her silently.
It's just that the heavy snow fell harder and harder and never stopped.
……
The snow disaster came without any warning.
The blizzard continued, as if it would never end, and the world finally became chaotic, with desperate cries everywhere.
But Yuan Kongye didn't feel scared, she was even a little happy.
Because the gods finally heard her voice and came to purify this ugly world!
In the last days, the ugly side of human nature is fully exposed.
She has seen with her own eyes children abandoning their parents for food; husbands and wives living under the same roof have to put knives under their pillows every day.
Yuan Kongye smiled happily.
She thought she was going to die in this cleansed world.
When the end of the world came, everything was in chaos, and she and Zheng Yixian, who were weak, were also separated.
She should have died.
But just when she was about to die of cold and hunger, a special voice suddenly sounded in her heart.
She awakened the ability called [Death Return].
It's like a person has an extra arm, and he naturally understands its function.
A glimmer of light finally appeared in Yuankong Yekong's eyes.
Isn't this the guidance given to her by the gods?
This must be her mission as an apostle of God.
To bless others, to seek the strength of the unfaithful, and finally grow into a god to punish all the filth in the world!
She thought about everything that happened in the mourning hall that day.
If she had been strong enough back then, nothing would have happened.
People, if you want to change the world, you must have a power strong enough to subvert everything!
Yuan Kongye survived.
Her life is no longer confused.
She was willing to sacrifice everything in order to accomplish the goals God had given her.
The first person she killed was a nun named Chen Rou.
In the cold apocalypse, Chen Rou adopted many orphans and distressed people in St. John's Cathedral.
Provide them with food and medicine, and comfort them to survive with hope in the end times.
Chen Rou was like a beacon in the apocalypse, bringing warmth to many people, including Yuan Kongye, who almost died for a time.
Just because she has a special power [the gift of Jehovah].
For those whom her hands touch, any physical pain will be healed and any mental uneasiness will be soothed.
Yuan Kongye felt the long-lost warmth by her side.
Chen Rou is a true believer, with a devout heart and mother-like kindness.
Yuan Kongye needs her power.
That is the best power to use to summon foolish people in the last days.
So she took advantage of Chen Rou's lack of defense and tricked her into using Bing Po, and then killed her with a sharp kitchen knife.
Everything is for the will of the gods and everything is sacrificial.
"Sister Chen Rou, you will forgive me, right?"
She covered her cheeks with her blood-stained hands, and two lines of muddy tears flowed from between her fingers.
Chen Rou's death made many people feel sad and uneasy.
But soon Yuan Kongye appeared and showed that he had the same abilities as Chen Rou.
As a result, people quickly forgot about Chen Rou.
They were so cold and so hungry that only their minds could see what was in front of them.
So they quickly knelt down at Yuan Kongye's feet.
The prototype of the Snow Worship Sect began to appear from this moment.
At first, Yuan Kongye was not willing to accept male believers.
Because of that incident, she rejected any man from the bottom of her heart.
She thinks men are dirty pigs who only act on lust.
Let her not mention touching, not even wanting to look at it.
The way any man looked at her would remind her of that night of pain that seemed to last forever.
However, when Zheng Yixian found her, everything changed subtly.
When Zheng Yixian found Yuan Kongye, he was as embarrassed as a wild dog that had lost its home.
But when he saw Yuan Kongye, the joy in his eyes was like the brightest starlight.
"Aye, it's great to see you are okay!"
But what Yuan Kongye gave him back was only cold eyes.
"You go!"
She rejected him coldly.
It seems that in order to implement her beliefs, she does not allow her heart to loosen in any way.
She will instinctively reject any person or thing that may change it.
Zheng Yixian asked in horror: "Why? Did I do something bad that made you hate me? I know, it was my fault to lose you after the heavy snow came."
"But please forgive me! If I lose you, my life will have no meaning."
Yuan Kongye frowned, and in order to let this man who would shake her heart leave, she said: "I hate all men in this world! So, you'd better stay away from me, the further away the better!"
Zheng Yixian's heart almost collapsed.
He smiled bitterly and said: "In the past, you were in Neon and I was in Tianhai. We were thousands of kilometers apart. I sent you messages every day. At that time, I felt that you were right next to me."
"But now that you are in front of me, I feel as if you are on the horizon."
So, how far is far?
Once two hearts are separated, there will be no end of the world.
Yuan Kongye didn't answer him, but left coldly.
But the next day, Zheng Yixian found him again.
His body was covered with donated blood, and he looked so weak that he looked like he was about to die.
But he looked at Yuan Kongye with a smile on his lips.
"You hate men, but I don't anymore. So I will never hurt you."
"Now, can I stay with you?"
