Chapter 525 Slaier’s Fun
Religious groups often preach in cities with a large number of true believers. In that case, the preaching will be much smoother and often get twice the result with half the effort.

The reason why Verdo and others went to Kalad City was because some believers they met on the road told them that Kalad City was easier to preach, so the entire religious sect went to Kalad City.

It is obvious that there are indeed more true believers in Karad City than in ordinary dwarf cities, but not much more, far less than what the believers met on the road claimed.

But the members of the sect were not discouraged. They had been accustomed to a life of poverty and prosperity for a long time. Under the leadership of the priests of the sect, the sect temporarily settled in Kalad City.

The life of the religious order is often boring. They gather together to pray during the day, and then send experienced monks out to solve problems for the true believers in the city, help hold funerals, teach prayers, write letters, read letters, and sometimes do For some errand work, after doing so much, the monks received pitifully little reward. Most of them were some bread, fish, cloth, a few copper coins, or a blessing. Sometimes, the price paid by the monks was beyond imagination. , Verdo heard that several times, the cult would go to raise ransoms for some true believers who were imprisoned, and those true believers were often imprisoned in order to be redeemed and avoid prison. Those who convert to the true religion only after disasters often only know a few verses of scriptures and do not understand any doctrine at all. Some even cannot figure out where they will go after death.

The Order has many complaints about this kind of behavior, but even if those people turn against each other after being redeemed, or immediately abandon the religion, the priests of the Order will forgive their sins and have no regrets about it.

In the boring religious life, sometimes strange things often happen.

Unfortunately, this happened to Verdo.

The reason is this. A couple of true believers came to the location of the sect and begged the sect to send priests to exorcise ghosts.

"Exorcism... Are there any ghosts causing trouble there?"

Verdo said in surprise.

At the same time, he felt a little nervous.

After living in the sect for so many years, they have never encountered any exorcisms. At most, they only appease the dead at funerals.

"We also guessed. In our area, more than a dozen people have disappeared inexplicably recently. Everyone said that they either fled or died somewhere unknown. May God bless us. It's really too much for so many people to disappear. It’s disconcerting.”

The man narrated this.

Verdo breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It didn't sound like it was really haunted. It was just that many people had disappeared within a period of time, and no one really saw any ghosts at work.

"Maybe that's just a coincidence...but we'll go over and have a look in two days."

Verdo made the promise and blessed the couple.

After sending the couple away, Verdo told the priest about this. This experienced priest had done four ghost exorcisms, three of which were made out of nothing, and only one was a real ghost exorcism. .

After listening to Verdo's story, the priest of the religious order concluded that this was most likely a farce. He told Verdo not to be afraid and to just go and he would pray for him in the religious order.

"There is no danger here. Even if there are ghosts, they are probably just ghosts that don't want to leave."

So said the priest of the order.

After hearing the words of the priest of the order, Verdo was completely relieved. He found his friend Gomu and planned to go there in two days to find out.

The above is about the reason why Verdo mistakenly entered the town after death.

The haunted area that the couple told about was actually Valli, the agent of lies and tricks, who deceived mortals into the town after death.

It's full of mistakes.

Maybe there was an accident at some point, such as a sudden stomachache, but Verdo would not accidentally enter the town after death.

But the most unfortunate thing is that there was no accident at any stage.

At that time, as soon as Verdo and Gomu entered the haunted area, the changes started.

Vali didn't know the identities of these two true believers. He just used the power of lies and tricks on these two people as usual and extradited them to the town after death.

He carefully presented the illusion he had prepared for a long time. When Verdo and Gomu entered this area, they suddenly encountered robbers. Then the robbers not only took away all the money, but also killed them all.

Verdo was stabbed in the abdomen and died, while Gomu was beheaded.

The illusion constructed with the power of lies and tricks was so real that neither of them noticed anything strange.

When they opened their eyes again, they found a boy standing in front of them.

"Hello, welcome to the underworld."

Vali bowed politely,
"I am Vali, the loyal servant of Nakbet, the god of death, and I am the guide for you newcomers."

Verdo and Gomu were stunned, then they looked at each other and exchanged glances. After that, Verdo couldn't help shouting:
"Underworld, did you make a mistake?"

Wally spread his hands,

"I know that you don't believe that you are dead, but you are indeed dead. This is the underworld. If you don't believe it, you can look at yourself and around you."

Vali thought that these two people were the ones who didn't believe that they were dead. He had seen many of these people. After they stayed in the town after death for a while, it wouldn't take long for them to believe that he was really dead. 's dead.

After all, the world created by the town after death is all too real.

"No, it's not that we don't believe that we are dead, the problem is, the problem is..."

Verdolian said "the question is" several times, and he looked very excited.
"The problem is... we are true believers. We should not go to the underworld. After death, we will either go to hell or go to heaven. How can we go to the underworld?"

Vali was stunned for a moment when Verdo's words fell into his ears.

Of course, this little boy had heard of the existence of True Christians, and also knew that in their legends, after death, one does not go to the underworld, but to heaven or hell.

It's over, it's over.

Wally suddenly felt nervous. Slaier had warned him beforehand that he must not be a gangster and must not let those people discover that he was not dead so early.

But soon, after thinking quickly, Wally calmed down.

What's the best way to deal with a gang?
Of course it's a lie.

Tell an extremely true lie until those people believe it.

After reacting, Vali quickly organized his thoughts, and after a moment, he explained without blushing:
"You are right, true believers will either go to hell or heaven after death, and will not go to the underworld.

But you should also know that some true believers converted from other religious beliefs, that is to say, they believed in other gods before believing in the Lord.

How do you think we should deal with such true believers?
The great god of death, Nakbet, was also confused, so he asked his father and finally came up with an answer. First, these converted true believers would be allowed to live in the underworld for a period of time, and then they would be judged by the law. Going to hell or heaven. "

Vali had a nose and an eye for what he said, and his ability to lie was extremely proficient. Even if Verdo and Gomu pressed for details, they could make up an answer on the spot.

Verdo and Gomu looked at each other in confusion. Valli's explanation was quite reasonable. They went from completely disbelieving to being somewhat dubious.And the most important thing is that they were indeed converted.

Vali saw the two of them wavering, so he took a tough stance and said:
"Whether you believe it or not, by the time I explain it to you, I have done my best to be benevolent and worthy of the great God of Death.

When you live here for a while, you will know how correct what I said is. "Valley's tough attitude forced Verdo and Gomu to accept the reality. Whether they liked it or not, they had already arrived in the underworld.

"Well, I hope you can tell me what we should do next to get to heaven."

Gomu asked proactively.

Of course, Vali wouldn't tell him that he hadn't finished it yet, so he said:

"With your current status, you don't deserve to know. All in all, just wait patiently."

After finishing speaking, Vali stopped explaining any more. He began to take the two people to visit the afterlife town in front of them, introduced them to the various residents in the town, arranged corresponding accommodation for them, and issued them afterlife certificates. The currency of the world, advising them to enjoy the afterlife with peace of mind.

After settling the two true believers, Vali left quickly. At this time, he finally felt upset again.

"Slaier, I actually let two true believers in!"

Running to the temple of lies and deceit, Vali shouted in panic at the statue,

"I've calmed them down for the time being, but...but...what if they get betrayed?!"

Hearing Vali's shouting, Slaier slowly walked out from behind the temple. He was holding a bunch of grapes in his hand, slowly tasting the watery sweetness.

"This is simply the biggest mistake! I'm going to mess up your plan!"

Seeing Slaier, Vali rushed forward, and then knelt down in panic.

"Get up, kid, don't dirty my clothes, get up quickly."

Slaier spat out grape seeds at his own idol.
"It's nothing."

Vali was shocked when he heard this and said in disbelief:

"It's nothing? Those true believers will either go to heaven or hell after death, but now they have come to the 'underworld'. Isn't this nothing?! I have messed up your plan!"

"Fucked up?"

Slaier sneered,

"No, I think it's funny."

After Vali heard this, his jaw almost dropped.

"I forgot to warn you not to deceive the true believers, but now that I think about it, luckily I forgot that the arrival of the true believers will make this afterlife more interesting."

Slaier said slowly, with anticipation in his eyes.
"I have thought of more fun things, and soon I will put them into practice and present rich content to this group of... 'players'."

Vali swallowed his saliva and nodded nervously.

Immediately afterwards, he asked:

"In other words, you don't need to worry about those two true believers?"

Slaier said of course:
"Otherwise? The more you take special care of them, the more they will suspect that they are not actually dead."

After hearing this, Vali finally felt at ease and understood what he should do.

"But I'd like to remind you, except for the two of them, don't let other true believers in, otherwise it won't be fun."

After saying these words, Slaier swept the grape seeds off his statue, turned around, and walked back to the depths of the temple.

..........................................

Verdo suspected that he was not dead.

Although Valli's explanation was reasonable, he still could not convince Verdo.

You must know that Verdo's godfather passed away not long ago, and he later converted to Christianity. Could it be that he also stayed in this underworld for a period of time before going to heaven?
If this is the case, then everything that happened will definitely leave traces.

But Verdo spent several days traveling through the town behind him, but could not find any trace of the godfather.

"If my godfather has been here, then there is no way I can't find him. That Vali should be lying."

Verdo said to Gomu.

"How about asking the man named Vali directly?"

Gomu suggested.

Verdo shook his head,
“There is not enough evidence, and asking him now will only alert the enemy.

If I question him about this, I can already guess what he will answer me.

He would say: 'The underworld is so big, this is just a small part, my godfather is in a different area. '"

After finishing speaking, Verdo looked at Gomu and asked:
"Do you believe that we are really dead? Have we really arrived in the underworld?"

Gomu wavered and said:
“I kind of believe it.

Those robbers killed us, the pain is so real...

Moreover, the environment here is exactly the same as the legendary underworld. This should be the Sighing Plain of the underworld. "

Gomu was right.

Although there are many doubts, there is also a large amount of evidence that proves that this is a corner of the underworld.

For example, the five senses of Verdo and Gomu have weakened since they entered death, and their bodies have become as ethereal as their souls, showing a pale white transparent luster.

For another example, other people here are convinced that they are dead and this is really the underworld. They sigh day and night.

For example, the sky is always dark, the earth is barren, there are skeletons everywhere, the dark forest surrounds the town, and they can even hear the snoring of a three-headed dog in the distance.

There are many, many more such examples, and all signs indicate that this is really the underworld, a kingdom after death created by Nakbet, the god of death.

Where else could this place be but the underworld?

What's more, in this afterlife town, almost everyone believes that they are really dead and have really come to the underworld. Only two of them don't believe it. Could it be that everyone has a problem, not just the two of them? ?
