Along the way, Lin Bai had been recovering his energy. He turned a deaf ear to the famous sights on the streets, and only opened his eyes after the carriage slowly drove to the border of the Vatican.
"Zhuo Cai, bring your wife to find a place to rest. I'll go take a look at the Vatican first!" Lin Bai looked at Shang Zhuocai and said.
When Shen Xiaoyi thought about what happened in the Zurich Cathedral earlier, he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive. He looked at Lin Bai and asked softly, "Lin Bai, are your words okay?"
"It's fine. You don't have to worry about that. Find a good place to settle down and wait for me to come back!" Lin Bai waved his hands and after comforting Shen Xiaoyi a little, they strolled leisurely towards the Vatican.
The Vatican is the world's smallest sovereign state and the world's most populous country. High above the Vatican in the northwest corner of the Italian capital, Italy is a "China". The territory includes St. Peter's Square, the St. Peter's Cathedral, the Vatican Palace and the Vatican Museum.
The country was roughly triangular, with the borders marked by the ancient walls of the Vatican, except for the St. Peter's Square, in the southeast of the city. Vatican City itself was a great cultural treasure, with many of the world's most important works. Although the Vatican is a small country geographically, Catholicism, with its vast global population of believers, has worldwide influence in areas such as politics and culture.
The majority of the citizens of the Vatican were clerics, including bishops, priests, nuns, and the famous Switzerland Guard. There are currently only 32 female citizens and 540 male citizens in the country. There were 306 diplomats among the 572 Vatican men, 86 more members of the Switzerland Guard, 73 more Cardinal, 31 civilians and one nun.
It could be said that the Vatican was the place with the most power in the world, and its security measures were extremely tight as well.
"The Vatican is indeed an extraordinary place!" Although he was prejudiced against Benedict XVI, Lin Bai didn't have any ill feelings towards Christianity.
There were too many faith-based sects in the world. Other than the Buddhism and Christianity in China and Europe, there were also Islam in the Arabian countries in the Middle East, and also religious worship in Africa and Latin America.
All of these sects had a deep background, and they had truly drawn their lines in thick ink throughout history. For example, the Taoists' father rode the Cyan Ox to transform into a Hu, the Buddhist Shikakamuni sacrificed himself to feed the falcons before becoming Buddha under the Bodhi tree, Jesus was crucified, and Muhammad unified all the tribes of the Arabian and established the rudiments of the Arabian Empire.
Although Benedict XVI's actions and behavior caused Lin Bai to feel disgusted, these were all reflections of his nature, and had nothing to do with the religion he worshipped. Therefore, Lin Bai did not feel that Christian worship was repugnant to him.
The Vatican was not very big. After walking for a while, Lin Bai arrived near the St. Peter's Cathedral.
St. Peter's was surrounded by two semicircular corridors, each supported by tall, round pillars. At the top of the corridors were sculpted sculptures of the most famous holy men and women in the history of the church. In the middle of the square stood an Egyptian obelisk carved from a single piece of stone. On each side of the obelisk was a beautiful fountain, a trickle of clear water that symbolized the water of life God had given to the believers.
St. Peter's Cathedral was a rectangular church, the entire structure was a Latin cross. Its shape was very traditional and sacred, at the same time, it was the largest church in the world.
To the left of the door of the St. Peter's Cathedral stood the tall statue of St. Peter, calm and smiling, holding in his right hand the two golden keys to heaven that Jesus had given him, and in his left hand a scroll of the edict Jesus had given him.
Peter was the first of Jesus' twelve disciples. Before Jesus returned to heaven, he gave him the golden key, and Peter became the head of the Catholic Church. He went to Rome to preach. The St. Peter's Cathedral was built in memory of Peter.
To the right of the church door stood another tall and beautiful statue, another important apostle of Jesus: Paul. He had been one of the culprits in forcing Christians, but Jesus had covered him with light and spoken to him so that he would know that Jesus was a true God. He then transforms from a Christian villain to an apostle of Christ, and is the most important Christian preacher besides Jesus.
But just standing in front of these two statues, made Lin Bai frown. For some reason, he felt that although this St. Peter's Cathedral was majestic, it was as if it was shrouded by a baleful aura. It did not have the slightest holy aura, but instead carried a strange aura!
"Something is wrong. This is the center of the world's Christianity, and also the symbol of heaven in the hearts of Christians. No matter how sinister the people who built this church were, they couldn't make it be called the place where the evil aura is accumulated!" Looking at the scenery in front of him, Lin Bai felt some misgivings, "Forget it, I should still go in and take a look.
Although it was winter, the Vatican was still hot and humid under the climate of the Earth Zhonghai. Furthermore, the Vatican was near the sea, looking like a steamer in the evening, making it hard for people to breathe.
"F * ck, there's really such a damn weirdo!" Just as he entered the church, Lin Bai felt that the scorching feeling in his heart had disappeared without a trace. However, an incomparably cold and gloomy aura filled Lin Bai's body, and that kind of extremely familiar feeling caused Lin Bai's back to be drenched in cold sweat.
After opening the Heaven's Eyes, Lin Bai looked around, his scalp going numb, his surroundings were filled with an extremely dark and dense baleful qi, he could not help but stand there blankly, and said with a trembling voice: "Is it that the ancestors of Christianity have gone crazy, causing the church to look like this, or has Benedict's brain gone crazy, wanting to destroy this place where the thousand years of treasure are located?!"
Lin Bai was secretly shocked, but his eyes kept looking around, the more he observed, the darker his expression became, to the point where water was almost coming out.
The interior of the church was resplendent, dark, and mysterious. It was built of marble, and all the pictures inside were made of different colors of marble.
The interior of the hall was shaped like a cross. At the crossroads was the center of the church, and at the center was the mausoleum of St. Peter, with the papal altar on the ground, and above the altar was the golden canopy, and above the canopy was the dome of the church.
A ray of sunlight shone into the hall from the dome, adding a mysterious color to the solemn and gloomy church. To most people, the dome looked like the gate to heaven. However, in Lin Bai's eyes, the round dome was filled with dense Baleful Yin Force. It was so thick that it was almost solid, almost comparable to the land of extreme yin s.
"Crazy! He must be crazy! Otherwise, such a thing would never have happened!" Lin Bai looked at the arrangement of the hall and his heart was filled with shock. On the faces of the Switzerland Guards who were guarding the Church's internal equipment, he could see an aura of death, the whole church was filled with a ghastly aura, which made them extremely creepy.
Following the direction of the flow of the Baleful Yin Force in the Heaven's Eyes, Lin Bai could clearly see that all the Baleful Yin Force in the church was leaking out from St. Peter's grave. It was fortunate that no tourists were allowed to come in contact with the St. Peter's grave, otherwise, as long as someone stood there for a long time, they would definitely be attacked by the Baleful Yin Force and turned into a fool.
"F * ck, this must be something that Benedict 16 did. What is he trying to do? Is he trying to concentrate all the Baleful Yin Force in the world into the Vatican, turning this heaven in the hearts of Christians into hell so that he can completely overturn the faith of the Christians?" Lin Bai muttered, his eyes full of confusion.
After being silent for a while, Lin Bai did not hesitate anymore. He found a place with fewer people, took out a few copper coins from his pocket and started to calculate the purpose of the church's actions.
"From the top to the bottom, there exists an earthquake, the Japanese side wants to shine, magnificent light, the text is lightning, rain falls, this divination has many negative elements, causing the yang energy to be dried up by the evil energy, the yin and yang cannot stand on its own, it hurts its own brightness, the sunset and the earth falls, its glory to me, the gentleman gets it, it is the clear and unfathomable image. Those who understand are injured, and this is the seventh divination of the palace. It's called the wandering soul's divination! "
Looking at the divination, Lin Bai muttered to himself: "Brilliant light, sunset, flat ground. This is exactly the turning point of turning from prosperity to failure, and the existence of this Baleful Yin Force is also right!"
"That's not right, there's more yin than yang, could it be that the owner of this church is going to change his gender, and the divination should be on Ai Weier, the former descendant of the female Pope?!" Ai Weier's figure suddenly appeared in Lin Bai's mind, and then he felt a chill down his spine.
Crazy, absolutely crazy! Although Lin Bai did not dare to say that the divination was aimed at Ai Weier, he felt that there was a high chance that he would not miss a single one. Thinking that Ai Weier could dig out his eyeballs raw for revenge, and how the fetus in his womb used them to stir up the Yin Sha, cold sweat kept rolling down Lin Bai's back nonstop!
