Holy exorcism artifact?
Zhang Zian's first reaction to this word was to laugh. He remembered the various amulets that the monks in the temple had blessed, but in front of the priest, he resisted the urge to laugh.
Zhuang Xiaodie wanted to know what the so-called holy exorcism artifact was, but the priest did not explain further. It was obviously a very secretive thing.
The priest glanced at the black-and-white kitten again. "More and more people in China are raising cats, and there are more and more stray cats. This time, in order to avoid further deterioration of the nightmare of hundreds of years ago, we decided that we could not sit back and do nothing. We must stop the devil from hell, so we immediately sent a request for help to our fellow believers in the United States. You must be wondering. Why the United States? Because … because of some very complicated reasons, the holy artifact has been in the United States from Europe many years ago. "
Zhuang Xiaodie said, "Since there is such a powerful thing, it must be able to solve this series of events quickly. We should be relieved."
She actually said this sentence to Zhang Zian, so that he would not think too deeply about it.
The priest hesitated a little and said cautiously, "We are sure that as long as the holy artifact arrives here, we can suppress the devil in a short time, but … to tell you the truth, in addition to the United States, this matter must also be approved by the Vatican. Because of the many problems that have occurred before, the Vatican is now very strict about holding exorcism rituals. They often need to send people to investigate and collect evidence before they agree, so the back and forth procedures may take a lot of time … So before the holy artifact arrives, you should be careful and take care of your cat. "
Hearing this, Zhuang Xiaodie seemed to understand the gist of the matter.
Zhang Zian was not the only smart person in the world. After the large-scale cat abuse incident in Binhai City, it not only attracted the attention of Zhang Zian, but also the attention of the church. The two did not know each other and each took different measures to deal with it.
The church sent people to the United States to obtain the holy exorcism artifact and applied to the Vatican for an exorcism ritual, but this series of bureaucratic procedures was time-consuming and not completed.
At the same time, Zhang Zian, by coincidence, went north to the capital to obtain the Warding Off Evil Cat and returned to Binhai City. He solved the cat abuse incident before the church and calmed the storm.
This raised another question — before and after the cat abuse incident subsided, did the holy exorcism artifact arrive in Binhai City according to the church's plan? Or did the church discover that the cat abuse incident had unexpectedly subsided ahead of time, and there was no need to make a big fuss, so they stopped the operation and left the holy relic in the United States?
Both situations were possible, and he couldn't get an answer in the dream at the moment.
Even if he returned to reality and came to this church to ask the priest, the priest would probably be secretive because the cat abuse incident had subsided.
In fact, it was none of her business. She just needed to make sure that this unexpected interlude was not Famous's modification of the dream world.
"Thank you, we will be careful." She thanked the priest politely, then pulled Zhang Zian. "Let's go."
"Alright. Father, thank you for the reminder. "
Zhang Zian nodded and walked down the stairs with her.
The priest smiled as he watched their backs, silently praying to God to bless the young couple.
Since the two of them had been lingering in front of the church for quite some time, the photography club and the old mages had already scattered to chase after their new prey. The surroundings were now quiet.
"You said that you hate cats, but I didn't expect you to be so concerned about the cat abuse incident." It was not good to always be silent, so Zhang Zian tried to find something to talk about.
"I'm just a little curious about the holy exorcism artifact." She casually changed the topic.
Zhang Zian only listened to the priest's words as an anecdote. As for holding an exorcism ceremony in Binhai City, it was really not in line with the core values of socialism, so it was best not to hold it.
"Holy relics, the holy relics of the church, probably like Holy Communion and Holy Water …" he laughed, wanting to show off his knowledge and explain to her the origin of Holy Communion and Holy Water.
He wanted to show off his knowledge and explain to her the origin of Holy Communion and Holy Water.
"Quack? Holy Water? Is the second cup half price? "
To his surprise, a sudden and hoarse scream came from the side, interrupting his words.
Zhang Zian was speechless. What a cheap voice!
"Sorry, sorry."
On the side of the road, a young man with a very artistic temperament had just gotten out of a taxi and was paying the driver. There was a large birdcage at his feet. The whole birdcage was covered with black cloth, and the contents inside could not be seen.
The young man looked worried and had two dark circles under his eyes. At first glance, it was obvious that he had not slept well recently. After paying the fare, he hurriedly apologized to Zhang Zian and Zhuang Xiaodie.
Was this young man the one who answered Zhang Zian's words just now? It didn't seem like it. Apart from the different timbre, this young man seemed very calm, not like the kind of frivolous character who would casually answer strangers' words.
"Sorry, sorry! I just bought a parrot. I didn't expect it to suddenly come out with some … uh, inexplicable words. "The young man was very embarrassed, nodding and apologizing repeatedly.
"Parrot?" Zhang Zian's heart inexplicably moved. "What kind of parrot can speak so well? I just thought it was a human talking. I didn't know it was a parrot at all. "
The young man shook his head and smiled bitterly. "I bought it in a pet shop in the distance. I said that I wanted to buy a talking parrot. The owner mysteriously took out this one and vowed that it could talk very well. It seemed that he was eager to get rid of it. The price was not expensive, so I paid for it … Who would have thought that after I bought it, I found that this parrot could talk. The problem was that it was not a lie. The words it said were not serious. All of them were dirty words …"
He was full of complaints. Since he had returned home, his mood was a lot more relaxed. He finally found an opportunity to complain. He sighed and continued, "Along the way, it has caused me a lot of trouble. Because I bought it in a hurry, I didn't sign a contract. I couldn't return it even if I wanted to. It would be a pity to throw it away. I don't know if it can survive in the wild, so I could only bring it back first. Now that I think about it, the owner was so eager to get rid of it. It may be because this is someone else's lost parrot. He was afraid that the original owner would come to find him, so he sold it at a low price. I don't know what kind of strange owner can teach such a dirty parrot … "
"Achoo!"
Zhang Zian suddenly felt itchy in his nose. He turned to the direction where no one was and sneezed.
"Did you catch a cold?" Zhuang Xiaodie asked.
"No, maybe someone is talking behind my back." Zhang Zian rubbed his nose, and the sour feeling disappeared a little.
