"If you really received the oracle, why didn't you tell it before and why did you wait until now?" The priest was still angry and asked Xia Qimiao.
"Because God foresaw this moment, and He allowed me to tell the truth at this moment."
The priest wanted to say something else, but the old man in red stopped him by raising his hand.
“Did God tell you whether you were going to die today or live?”
What a tough question.
If she says "survive", then he will kill her on the spot to prove that what she said is false, and falsehood is naturally not an oracle.
If she said "die," then he could say he had obeyed the oracle and killed her on the spot.
No matter which answer you give, you cannot escape the word death.
"God said, there is a traitor among you who will go against His will, and He is going to set a test on me."
"God says that whoever kills me against His will is a rebel against God; whoever puts me down in obedience to His will is a loyal believer."
"I am willing to devote myself to God and help Him get the answer He wants. I wonder which of you is the traitor to God?"
Another big hat was slapped on.
"In the final analysis, it's just your words." The priest was still angry, but his voice was a little softer than before, and he even stayed away.
"I said, God will prove my authenticity," Xia Qimiao felt like the world was spinning at first, but now she has calmed down and feels that it's okay to look backwards, "He has sent blessings."
"What blessing?" the old man in red asked.
"He blessed the holy water in the church. If you sprinkle a little on the vampires, they will burn."
"As long as you go and get it, you can prove my identity and the authenticity of my words."
"Why don't you go? Is there no holy water in your church?"
Xia Qimiao was fearless. If there was holy water, and she was not a vampire or other evil thing, and the holy water was useless to her, there would be nothing to be afraid of.
If there is no holy water, the church staff will get ordinary water and pretend that they have it. After all, this is a matter of authority. Don't be afraid of ordinary water, it can't burn anyone.
Everyone at the scene was frozen and motionless.
She turned to the blonde woman and asked, "How are you? Are you satisfied with my answer?"
The blonde woman said coldly: "Do you know what will happen if you cheat in the name of God?"
Xia Qimiao didn't take it seriously: "If I am guilty, God should send down His divine punishment instead of letting people unjustly accuse me, frame me, or burn me to death."
"Since He has not sent down divine punishment, it means that I am not guilty. Since I am not guilty, why should anyone judge me?"
"These people have never seen God in their lives. At least I have received oracles from other gods."
She thought of the thank you letter that was set to be sent regularly, and wondered if Shen Baixian had received it.
The blonde woman thought along Xia Qimiao's words and frowned: "How do you know they have not seen God?"
"Of course it's because this is your fantasy. These people are just characters you created. They think what you think and say what you say. You must have never seen God, otherwise your death will not be in vain."
While Xia Qimiao was fooling people, she was thinking about the purpose of setting up this illusion.
This woman probably had no intention of attacking, or had no intention of actually attacking her, because the [Passive-Early Warning] did not sound either last time or this time.
Judging from the fact that she was called "salad" by this woman, the blonde woman should have the ability to observe downstairs.
Lin Jiangdan once called her "host", and fried ice cream called her "contract wife", but in the end she chose the nickname "salad".
This shows that she either cannot pay attention to the things below in all directions at all times, or the first two names are beyond her cognitive scope, so she chose the one she can understand and fits the background of her world.
Both are possible.
"Furthermore, when I said that I received an oracle, the priest, or rather, your first reaction was that I was lying."
"It's like if I say that I can eat ten loaves of bread in one meal, only people who have never been able to eat so much will subconsciously think that I am lying. People who have eaten will not have this reaction."
The blonde fell silent.
"So, what do you want to do by setting up this illusion? Do you want me to experience the grievance of being wronged, the hatred of being betrayed, and the pain of being burned to death?"
Her eyes widened instantly when she heard this, and her already round eyes became even rounder.
"How do you know I'm the one who was betrayed?"
"Because you... have average eloquence," Xia Qimiao expressed her true thoughts tactfully. "It's easy to follow other people's ideas. It doesn't seem like you have the ability to jump out and make excuses."
"You are right, I am the role you played, the one who was pushed out by 'good friends' to die for her." The blonde woman sighed.
Now that she's here, she will definitely tell the key story. Xia Qimiao braced herself and prepared for the attack.
"At the beginning, a very strange disease appeared in the town. Everyone who was sick would itchy all over their body and couldn't help but scratch themselves. When the disease got serious, they would cut it with a knife to relieve the itching."
"All doctors and priests are helpless. No one knows how this disease appears, and there is no way to cure it."
"My sister also suffers from this disease. I have no choice. In order to prevent her from harming herself, I can only tie her up and try to find a treatment method as much as possible."
"At this time, my 'good friend' came to me and said that she actually knew a mysterious way to pray for the power of 'another god'."
"I knew at the time that there was something wrong with the god she talked about, but I was really desperate, so I pretended not to know and used her method."
The blonde woman recalled when she saw the bloody castle. She knocked on the door, but no one responded.
The deathly silence overwhelmed her. She thought of her sister who was covered in scars and blood scabs, but she mustered up the courage and walked through the door.
There was no one inside, and there was no sound. There was only her breathing and heartbeat. She walked slowly inside and entered the hall.
There was a person sitting on the high seat. No, he couldn't be called a human. The broad bat wings on his back proved his inhuman status.
After hearing her purpose, he extended a helping hand to her.
"The disease disappeared just like that. I never saw him again, but I thought I should thank him, so I publicized his deeds. Unexpectedly, he was regarded as the spokesperson of a cultist and vampire and was burned to death."
"I have thought many times, if time could be turned back, what should I do to get out of the predicament at that time and survive."
"But I never thought that you could do this... What are you thinking?" The blonde woman noticed that her audience was silent.
Xia Qimiao asked: "How long ago was your beginning?"
"About ten years ago."
