Chapter 678

The middle-aged man laughed.

He laughed as if he had heard a child's funny question.

He still didn't answer Crete's question.

"Then, will you?"

"Of course..." Crete scratched his head. "But what does a priest do?"

"Pastors, they are people who walk in the world on behalf of God. They bring new life into the world and send the dead away peacefully. They witness the joys and sorrows of the world. They are God's eyes and hands. They also redeem all sins with God's heart..."

“……” Crete didn't seem to understand.

"I'll teach you how to read first." The middle-aged man didn't understand.

Thank you Crete had a weak body, but his eyes were full of hope.

The next step is to dock again and again, as time goes by

The two men are like father and son. The middle-aged man teaches him to read, recite all kinds of prayers, teach him to sing poems, and go to pick up food and fresh water together. They also rush to the places where people die to pray for them and send them away from the world.

Since he was saved by a middle-aged man, Crete's children in Wuguang Street don't seem to have such a bad life. Instead of thinking about how to live every day hungrily, they live through every difficult day peacefully with compassion for the world

A lot of people die in Wuguang street every day.

However, many people come to Wuguang street every summer.

Some of them are children who have stolen two steamed buns, some are murderers, some are women with special occupations, and some are criminals such as "economic crimes", "divulging business secrets" and so on.

Every summer when new criminals arrive, autumn is the peak time for Crete to work. Sometimes people die from morning to night.

They found two black robes that they would not take off even in the summer.

They also dug out a few crosses in the garbage, big and small, including a necklace inlaid with precious stones - of course, no one was interested in this thing in Wuguang street.

Over time, walking in the street without light, a large and a small two priests, has also become a landscape.

For the people who have the ability to settle down in Wuguang street, their existence is still necessary, because if they clean up the corpses, at least the plague in Wuguang Street will be reduced a lot. We should know that in this place where there is little medical treatment, once they get sick, they will almost die.

Crete thought his life would go on like this.

Until they get old, they die

But another summer, the middle-aged man disappeared.

Middle aged men never go anywhere without Crete, and even when they are busiest at work, they never go to two separate places to clean up bodies.

Crete panicked. He looked everywhere and asked.

Wuguang street is not big, but small is not small. One day, he didn't drink a drop of water, but he still couldn't find a middle-aged man.

Of course, he didn't give up. The next day, after he added some food and water, he set out again to look for a middle-aged man

The middle-aged man saved his life and taught him to read. In this dirty place, it brought him only a little bit of beauty, and also gave him a career and the power to survive.

Middle aged men are very important to him.

In addition to his parents who have been blurred in his memory, he is the most important person.

……

Crete was the middle-aged man he found a week later.

At that time, the middle-aged man was dying.

But next to him lay more than a dozen corpses, all of which were miserable and dead to subvert Crete's outlook on life.

Crete stepped back a few steps.

"You did it all?" he asked, trembling

His eyes are wide open, because he hopes to get a negative answer from the middle-aged man

Because the middle-aged man in his impression is not like this!

Not at all!

The middle-aged man he knew was a gentleman who taught him to pray for the bodies of criminals and wish them a peaceful departure.

Unfortunately, the middle-aged man nodded his head and said, "yes."

"They are Who is it? " Asked Crete.

"People who have done harm to my daughter." The middle-aged man still smiles calmly, just as he did when he first rescued Crete.

"How did you find them?"

"We are priests, and anyone will pour out their sins to me."

“……” There are several scenes on the screen. Crete and the middle-aged men listen to the confessions of the criminals who have settled down in the dark street. They may not be true confessions, they may just want some salvation.

"In fact, what they believe is not me, because I take you with me. Your eyes are very clean, and there is an instinct that can make people spit out all the evil in the bottom of their heart." The middle-aged man grinned at him.Crete's body seemed to be pounded by something. He shook hard and continued to retreat

He looked for a middle-aged man for seven days.

Now he was so hungry that he almost fainted, but what he saw and heard was this.

"If you want revenge, I will help you! I will definitely help you... " Crete didn't know whether he was talking to a middle-aged man or to himself.

He was born and raised in the dirtiest place of crime in the world, and saw all kinds of crimes. It was the middle-aged man who saved his life and his outlook on life, but now it is also the middle-aged man who gave him the heaviest blow.

It turns out that the middle-aged man only wants his eyes, which are still clean in the most filthy place.

Under the guidance of the middle-aged man, his eyes are getting cleaner and cleaner day by day, and it's easier for people to keep themselves in front of him and pour out all their sins.

The middle-aged man is shaking his head, still smiling.

"Yes, you killed them You know the weakness of each of them, so So you can easily kill them. " Crete said, "but you're going to die, too."

"I've been dead since the day I came to Wuguang street." The middle-aged man smiles and says, "but don't worry, kid I have redeemed their sins, and I have also borne their sins. Death is their final salvation, and it is also my final salvation. "

"You..."

"As I have said, you are the only priest in the dark street. Because I am not the Lord who betrayed me when I planted the seeds of sin in my heart. I haven't been for a long time. "

“……” Crete's life was overturned at this moment. He knelt down feebly and could do nothing but cry.

"I really I really like seeing the dead off, because the dead can't do any bad things any more. "The middle-aged man is dying, and his expression is very peaceful." no matter what I have done Boy, take me away, corpse It's the cleanest... "

"Corpses are the cleanest..." From his neck, Crete took out the cross inlaid with precious stones that they had dug up in a bag of rubbish and began to pray intermittently
