Kachi Kachi.
Under the light, Father Miro threw a handful of beans into a utensil and carefully ground them with tools. A moment later, a fragrance wafted through the room. Angeloni took a few breaths. This was a fragrance she had never smelled before. When she pushed open the door and entered the room, she said that she had a problem to ask Miro, but she didn't seem to be in a hurry. She even looked at Miro's work curiously. Very quickly, the beans were ground into powder. Miro put the powder into two cups and poured hot water to stir it. The fragrance became even stronger. Miro walked into the kitchen and brought a jar a moment later. He removed the lid and scooped out a spoonful of milky white liquid into the cup. The white liquid mixed with the dark water, and the fragrance became even stronger.
"This is?" Angeloni looked at one of the drinks that Miro handed over and couldn't help but ask.
"This is coffee. Try it." Miro sat down on a rattan chair with a cup of coffee in his hand and took a sip.
Angeloni tried to take a sip, and it was bitter. But very quickly, the bitterness turned into a strong fragrance, and his spirit was shocked, "Coffee? This is the first time I've had such a drink in this world. "
"This world, or rather, this universe, is incomparably vast. There are always novel things happening in every corner. It's not surprising to see new things occasionally. "Miro took another sip and asked," Well, what's the problem with you that you have to visit so late at night? "
Angeloni held the cup in her palm and the fragrance lingered in front of her nose. This feeling made her very comfortable. Smelling this fragrance, it was as if the exhaustion of a day's journey had disappeared just like that. She adjusted her sitting posture and said, "Just as you said, Father. This world is indeed very vast, and there are always novel things happening at any time. It is precisely because of this that life is so beautiful and precious. "
"Sounds like your problem is related to life? If you want to discuss this topic, I think it would be more appropriate to talk about it tomorrow. After all, this topic is incomparably vast. Even if I talk about it for three days and three nights, I might not be able to finish it. "Miro said.
"That won't be necessary." Angeloni thought for a moment and said, "Father, do you believe in fate?"
"Of course."
"What do you think fate is?"
Milo narrowed his eyes and revealed a wise smile. If Allen was here, he would definitely be very surprised, because he would never believe that a guy who regarded money as his life could actually smile so intelligently. At this moment, Milo was not a priest at all. He was more like a Pope who had seen through the ways of the world.
"Fate is a thread." Milo made a rubbing motion with two fingers, as if there was an invisible thread between his fingers. "One end of the thread is connected to us, and the other end is in the hand of the Father in heaven."
"Do you mean that our fate is decided by the gods?" Angeloni asked.
Milo shook his head and said, "That depends on what kind of existence you think gods are. In my opinion, God is a kind of power, a kind of rule. It had existed since the birth of the universe, and all living things were within this kind of power and rules. Therefore, no matter how it changed, it was still the same. Therefore, our fate is also in it. The water flowed downwards, and the fish could not leap into the blue sky. This is the rule, and it is also the fate of the water and the fish. "
"The water can't go up, and the fish can't leap into the blue sky, so their fate has been decided from the beginning, and it can't be changed?" "What about people?" Angeloni asked.
Milo looked at her and looked at her carefully. He gently stroked the cup with his hand, and the heat from the coffee at the mouth of the cup drew an unpredictable pattern in the air. After a long time, the priest said, "I really want to tell you that man can conquer nature." But in reality, how many people could really change their fate? A person's fate, from the moment he was born, had already determined the general trajectory of his life. For example, children born in peasant families and children born in noble families could roughly see the trajectory of their destinies as long as they were slightly sober. A child from a peasant family might be able to walk out of the background of his family through his own efforts. He would leave the village and go to a big city. Through his own efforts, he would obtain a good job and escape the fate of being a farmer. But would this really change his fate? Because he was born in a peasant family, that environment had already determined his knowledge, the people he came into contact with, and the knowledge he could learn. He might become a good baker, or a good sewing artist, or even a tax official. However, it would be difficult for him to become a noble. Why? Because he didn't grow up in that environment. He wouldn't know what art was, much less what high society was. He couldn't come into contact with nobles and high-ranking officials, let alone ride horses and swordsmanship. Of course, you will say that all of this can be learned, but there are some things that even the smartest person can only learn and lose sight of. You have to know that there are many things that require the accumulation of foundation, and the children of farmers lack that kind of foundation. "
"But there are billions of living beings in the universe. Is there no one who can jump out of the long line of fate at birth?" Angeloni asked.
Milo sighed, "Yes, but very few." And even if he changed his fate, the price he paid would not be small. And after changing, was that new fate really suitable for him? In other words, he had just jumped from one line into another. Or perhaps, in the eyes of the gods, that new line of fate was his true fate. Then, did he really change? Or perhaps, all of this is still fate. "
Angeloni shook her head and said, "If that's the case, then what's the point of living? To be the puppets of fate and actors on the stage in the eyes of the gods?"
"Miss, you must know that everyone lives for a different reason. For a king, the meaning of his life is to govern his country and ensure that his descendants can sit on the throne. For a farmer, perhaps his meaning is to plant his own three acres of land. Do you expect the king to farm and the farmers to govern? "
"Alright, Father. Then let me ask one last question. "Angeloni gritted her teeth and said," If there is one person you will die if you see him. If you don't see him, you have a chance to live. Then do you choose to see him or not? "
Milo sat up slightly and said, "I don't have an answer to this question, but I want to ask you, are you sure he won't see you if you don't see him? If you and he are connected by fate, then no matter what you choose, the two of you will eventually meet because of this line. If only one person can survive at the two ends of fate, then no matter whether they see each other or not, only one person will survive in the end. "
"What if I want to break fate?" Angeloni's eyes shone brightly.
Milo looked at her and said indifferently, "First, you have to touch the boundary of fate."
