005. This is human nature
A bloody light emerged from the hexagrams and rushed into the sky.
Endless blood-colored mist lingered in the sky, and gusts of fishy wind were blown by the strong wind, which was disgusting.
Scarlet blood gathered into a river.
Since the strange hexagram pattern as the center, the entire earth has been like a red iron block, emitting a red color.
All buildings flashed with terrifying blood at this moment.
In the whispers of believers, the gloomy and terrifying church was instantly filled with endless smell of blood.
The sky is no longer blue, and all the scenery in the world is covered with a faint blood color.
Lightning suddenly burst out from the thick clouds.
Is this hell?
Maybe yes.
The believers around the hexagram only know that this is their first step in atonement.
Just like the words believed in the believers—
"There are no absolutely good people in this world, nor are there absolutely bad people, but the essence of human beings is the atonement."
They believe in it.
They whispered.
Everyone is to welcome the arrival of this ceremony.
They captured the offerings.
They slaughtered creatures.
Just to come here and serve their gods.
There was once a statue of Jesus nailed to the back wall of the church, but at this moment, under the scarlet light, it was like a skeleton struggling, twisting and wailing on the cross.
They were listening to wonderful songs, remembering the screams and howlings of the endless creatures in their hearts.
The dry bones and heads surround the hexagrams under the flow of the blood river.
The bones eventually formed a bone mountain, standing in this gloomy purgatory.
Suddenly, the believers were in a daze.
At the top of the Bone Mountain, a smaller figure stood.
They know that that is-
The gods they believe in.
"thump."
As a believer kneels down, dozens of believers kneel down in turn, worshiping their gods.
But amid this extremely neat kneeling and worship, a sound of metal falling on the floor was mixed inside.
The believers couldn't help but look for the source of the sound in confusion, and saw a boy wearing a black tunic dress retracting the silver pendant hanging on his wrist into his cuffs and continuing to worship.
Bloody sky.
Shura Hell.
Is this the world they see?
Is this the world they want?
Is this the purpose of their killing?
Probably, maybe, maybe.
......
The strange hexagrams and words written in terrifying red handwriting.
"Atonement".
"repent".
Feng Yangshu didn't know what these meant, so he could only infer based on the original meaning of the pattern.
The hexagram, also known as the Solomon Seal, in a sense, this pattern is related to magic and other things, and it also involves curses.
In short, the people who use it or draw it are very strange, perhaps belonging to a certain sect or an organization in a dark place.
Feng Yangshu didn't know what An Yan's life experience was, so he didn't know what these words and patterns meant to An Yan.
He looked back and found that there was no record behind the entire notebook except for the three pieces of paper in front.
An Yan is taciturn, but he doesn't just write this little in his notebook, right?
It has been almost four months since December, and there are only three articles in December. Is there no record in the middle three months?
Feng Yangshu was a little disappointed. After closing the notebook, he threw it on the table, but this throwing it out made a big deal—
A piece of paper popped out of the mezzanine of the notebook. The paper turned slightly yellow, but it was very flat by the two pages. The handwriting became a little blurred as time passed, but it could still be barely read from the sloppy handwriting.
"Since I was born, our family has been a member of the True God Cult for generations. Before the full moon night of a month, everyone in the True God Cult will hunt prey. The so-called prey is their closest relatives, even if they are also members of the True God Cult."
"My parents were taught after I was born that I must not show mercy. On the full moon night of the next two months, they made them my prey and finally sent them to the guillotine."
"I don't know what the meaning of this ceremony is, nor do I know why I want to kill my closest relatives."
"As they say this, everyone is atonement, and are they using high-sounding excuses like this just to cover up the crime of murder?"
"Fortunately, there are not many true gods in the village, so I don't have to chase and spend my remaining life."
"I know, I know very clearly that if I continue to live in that village, I will only become two kinds of people and have no choice."
"One is a cold-blooded person who only knows how to kill and has no humanity."
"And the other is a cowardly person who can only escape and be slaughtered."
"So I left that village, left there, and I hid all my identity about me, including the identity of being a true god, and I met a good friend, a good brother, and a brother who can reassure me."
"I thought I could have a friend like an ordinary person, find a girlfriend, and have a job, and spend this ordinary life, but everything ended in that letter, the letter with the symbol of the True God Cult."
"I had no choice but to go back to that small village, but I didn't tell my friends, but I was told that as a member of the True God Cult, I have not brought my prey back for more than ten years. My current mission is to hunt a prey."
"I don't know why, but I thought of my friends."
"I told myself that I can't think so, but as the time limit is approaching, I must bring back one prey, otherwise I will die, no, both of them will die."
"Death may be more important than friends, but as long as an ordinary person, they will choose to kill him."
"If you kill someone, only one person dies. If you don't kill them, two people die."
"This may be an excuse, an excuse to be free from death, but this is human nature."
"Since then, I knew one thing, that I never had any real friends, and everyone would think about themselves in times of crisis, even if they were considering others, it would be temporary."
"And this is human nature."
The words on the paper end here. Feng Yangshu felt a sudden enlightenment after reading it, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he didn't know what it was for understanding An Yan's life experience, he just felt an inexplicable pleasure.
"Is this human nature?"
