Chapter 289: St. Peter's Basilica
At this time, it was noon, the sky was bright, and the reflection of the airport glass was strong, which illuminated the old man's wrinkled cheeks a little white. If Shen Lingfeng was present at this time, he would definitely recognize that the old man who suddenly appeared at the Rome airport was Akashi Zhenren on Longhu Mountain.
"Old man, hurry up and open your bag and show me what's inside, or I'm welcome!" After seeing Masato Akashi dodge his hand to grab the bag for inspection, a security guard scolded him with an electric baton.
Akashi Masato didn't move, his hand holding the bag shrank behind him, his fingers kept moving, and then he looked at the two with a smile on his face, and his mouth made an extremely slight sound.
When the two security guards heard Akashi's sudden speech, they leaned closer to hear what the old guy had to say. But as soon as his head approached Akashi's real side, he felt an eerie aura rushing into the two of them along the old man's smiling eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his back.
But before they could retreat, two cold breaths invisible to the naked eye came out of Akashi's hands behind him, and they quickly burrowed into the bodies of the two security guards.
The two security guards from the Marine Corps only felt as if they were covered in a cloud of mist, and their bodies were numb one after another, and then their brains began to dizzy, and the figure of the old man standing in front of them began to gradually become blurred.
Then the two security guards looked stunned and stood blankly, staring at the horizon in the distance.
Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Akashi Majin sighed lightly, bypassed the two and then turned around and rushed to the guardrail of the airport, stretched out his hand to hold the wire, without the slightest sluggishness of the old man, jumped over with great lightness, and then waved his hands while walking towards the outside of the airport without hurrying.
After a long time, a cold wind blew through the airport, and the two security guards woke up, but turned around and couldn't find any trace of the old man.
"Oh my God, are we two meeting ghosts?" The two security guards looked at each other in amazement.
Along the way, Lin Bai was recuperating, ignoring the famous sights on the streets around Rome, and it was not until the car slowly drove to the border of the Vatican area that Lin Bai opened his eyes.
"Zhuocai, you take your master and wife to find a place to stay, I'll go to the Vatican here first!" Lin Bai looked at Shang Zhuocai and said.
Shen Xiaoyi thought of what happened in Zurich Cathedral before, and he was inevitably a little apprehensive in his heart, looked at Lin Bai and asked softly, "Lin Bai, it's okay if you are alone, right?" ”
"It's okay, you don't have to worry, find a good place to stay first, just wait for me to go back!" Lin Bai waved his hand, and after a few words of relief to Shen Xiaoyi, he walked towards the Vatican leisurely.
The Vatican is the smallest sovereign state in the world and the least populous country in the world. Located in the northwest corner of Rome, the capital of Italy, on the Vatican Heights, bordering Italy on all sides, it is a "national China". The territory includes St. Peter's Square, St. Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Palace and the Vatican Museums, among others.
The territory is roughly triangular in shape, with the exception of St. Peter's Square, which is located in the southeast of the city, and the border is marked by the ancient Vatican walls. Vatican City itself is a great cultural gem and is home to many of the world's most important works. Although the Vatican is a small country geographically, Catholicism has a worldwide influence in the fields of politics and culture due to its large faith population around the world.
The majority of the Vatican's citizens are clergy, including bishops, priests, nuns, and the famous Swiss Guard. There are currently only 32 female citizens and 540 male citizens in the country. Of the 572 Vaticans, there are 306 diplomats and 86 members of the Swiss Guard, in addition to 73 cardinals, 31 civilians and one nun.
It can be said that the Vatican is the place with the highest concentration of power in the world, and the security measures are extremely strict, and it is thanks to Lin Bai's 'blinding method' that he slipped in from under the noses of those Swiss guards.
"Sure enough, the weather is very diverse, and it is also an extraordinary place to come to this Vatican!" Although he was prejudiced against Benedict XVI, Lin Bai did not have any ill feelings towards Christianity.
There are too many religious sects in this world, in addition to the two religions of Buddhism and Taoism in China and Christianity in Europe, there are also Islam in Arab countries in the Middle East, as well as some religious totem worship in Africa and Latin America.
These sects all have a profound heritage, and they have been painted with real ink and color strokes in history. For example, the Taoist Lao Tzu rode a green ox out of the valley to turn Hu, the Buddhist Shakyamuni gave up his life to feed an eagle and then became a Buddha under the Bodhi tree, Jesus was crucified, and Muhammad unified the Arab tribes and laid the prototype of the Arab Empire......
Although it is said that Benedict XVI's behavior and behavior made Lin Bai feel disgusted, these are the reflection of Benedict XVI's heart, and have nothing to do with the religion he believes, so Lin Bai does not feel that Christianity is hateful.
The Vatican was not very big, but after walking for a while, Lin Bai walked to the vicinity of St. Peter's Basilica.
St. Peter's Church is surrounded by two semicircular galleries, each supported by tall round stone columns, topped by statues of the most famous saints and saints in the history of the Church, with lifelike figures. In the middle of the square stands an Egyptian obelisk carved from a single block of stone. The obelisk is flanked by a beautiful fountain, a trickling spring that symbolizes the water of life that God has given to the faithful.
St. Peter's Basilica is a rectangular church with a Latin cross in the shape of a traditional and sacred shape, and it is currently the largest church in the world.
In front of St. Peter's Basilica stands a tall statue of St. Peter, smiling, holding in his right hand two golden keys to heaven that Jesus gave him, and in his left hand a scroll of Jesus' decree to him.
Peter was the first of Jesus' 12 disciples, Jesus gave him the golden key before returning to heaven, Peter became the head of the Catholic Church, he came to Rome to preach, and later, in order to blame the Catholics, the Roman emperor set fire to the city of Rome, and then blamed the Catholics, and executed Peter. St. Peter's Basilica was built in honor of Peter.
On the right side of the front door of the church stands another tall and beautiful statue, another important apostle of Jesus: Paul. He was one of the chief sins of persecution of Christians, but he was later covered by Jesus' light and spoke to him, so that he knew that Jesus was the true God. Then he was transformed from a plaguer of Christianity to an apostle of Christ, and the most important preacher of Christianity besides Jesus.
But standing in front of these two statues made Lin Bai frown. Somehow, he always felt that although this St. Peter's Basilica was full of weather, it seemed to be haunted by evil spirits, without the slightest holy aura, but with a kind of weirdness!
"Something is wrong, this is the center of Christianity in the world, and it is also a symbol of heaven in the hearts of Christians, even if the intentions of the people who built this church in the first place are sinister, it is impossible to make this church a place where evil energy accumulates!" Looking at these scenes in front of him, Lin Bai had some doubts in his heart, "Forget it, let's go in and have a look, maybe there will be something to gain!" ”
Although it is still winter, the Vatican is still relatively hot and humid in the Mediterranean climate, and its proximity to the sea makes it more like a steamer in the evening, making it impossible to breathe.
"Fuck, it's fucking weird!" As soon as he walked into the church, Lin Bai felt that the hot feeling in his heart disappeared without a trace when he was outside the church, but a cold and incomparably cold aura filled Lin Bai's body, and the familiar feeling of the yin and evil aura made Lin Bai's back break out in a cold sweat.
After opening the Eye of Heaven, Lin Bai looked around, his scalp was numb for a while, and there was an incomparably dark and heavy aura all around, and he couldn't help but stand there in a daze, and said in a trembling voice: "Is it the predecessors of Christianity who are crazy to make the cathedral look like this, or is Benedict XVI crazy and wants to destroy the place where this thousand-year-old treasure is located!" ”
Lin Bai was secretly surprised in his heart, but his eyes kept looking around, but the more he observed, the more gloomy his face became, and in the end, he was almost dripping water.
The interior of the church is splendid, dimly lit and mysterious, made of marble masonry, and all the portraits inside are made of marble of different colors.
The interior of the whole nave is in the shape of a cross, at the intersection of the cross is the center of the church, the ground of the center point is the tomb of St. Peter, the ground is the altar of the pope, above the altar is a splendid canopy, above the canopy is the dome of the top of the church, around the dome and the top of the whole nave is covered with beautiful patterns and reliefs.
A ray of sunlight shines into the temple from the dome, adding a mysterious color to the solemn and dark church, which seems to ordinary people to be a gate to heaven. But in Lin Bai's eyes, the dome was filled with a thick yin and evil aura, and even some places were about to form a substance, almost comparable to Panyu's extreme yin land.
"Crazy, it must be crazy, otherwise there would never be such a thing!" Lin Bai looked at these layouts in the main hall, and his heart was inexplicably shocked. On the faces of the Swiss Janissaries who were guarding the heavy weapons inside the church, he saw a dead air, and the whole church was gloomy and creepy, like a ghost!
According to the direction of the flow of the yin qi that the eye of heaven saw, Lin Bai clearly saw that all the yin qi in this church was overflowing from St. Peter's tomb, and fortunately, St. Peter's tomb was not allowed to be touched by tourists, otherwise as long as someone stood there for a long time, they would definitely be invaded by the yin qi and become a person with dementia.
"Damn, this must have been done by that kid of Benedict XVI, what the hell is he going to do, could it be that he wants to concentrate the evil spirit of the whole world in the Vatican, turn the heaven in the heart of this Christian into hell, so as to completely subvert the Christian faith?" Lin Bai muttered to himself, his eyes full of puzzlement.
