The cathedrals in the imperial capital were not well-known. In the past, there were two sacred cathedrals in the imperial capital. At that time, it was indeed called the sacred cathedrals.

Later, due to various reasons, the night patrol of one of the sacred cathedrals inadvertently ignited the ornaments in the church, and the most terrifying fire broke out. The entire sacred cathedral was left with ruins and was razed to the ground soon after.

Another sacred cathedral is relatively well preserved, but if you ask a believer who is not a Tianzheng Church on the way, he will most likely not know where the cathedral is.

Since religion has withdrawn from the political stage, its style of conduct has become much more low-key. The only church in this imperial capital that can be called a "cathedral" is in the old city of the imperial capital.

The current urban planning is much more complex than before, and there are many buildings. If it were hundreds of years ago, then standing at the west gate of the imperial capital, then looking east along the road, and behind the spire of the watchtower tower at the easternmost end of the palace wall is the cathedral.

Every morning when the sun rises from the east, the sun will penetrate the stained glass of the cathedral, dyeing this road that runs through the east and west into colorful colors, which naturally includes the palace.

At that time, believers would get up before dawn, and then kneel down on both sides of the road in accordance with the order and the conventional rules, and quietly wait for the moment when the sunlight appears.

They call this "baptism of holy light". Some people believe that those gorgeous colors are not simply colored light, but projections of the kingdom of God. As long as you are often in this halo, you will definitely go to the kingdom of God to enjoy joy and well-being after death.

Later, with the continuous changes of power and the several transformations and expansions of the imperial capital, it is difficult to see the scenery that once seemed to be in a mythological story today. We can only sigh at the magic of human skills from one paragraph of description.

Dulin and Kubar briefly explained and left. He took the car to ask the driver to take him to the cathedral, and Kandy was already waiting for him at the door.

Kandy did not let Dulin get out of the car, but took the initiative to meet him and opened the car door, then sat in, "Look for a meal, I'm about to starve to death, I have to get something to eat!"

The driver did not start immediately, and the car did not start moving until Dulin said to drive.

Kandy didn't pay too much attention to these little things, and he couldn't help complaining, "I should really bring a chair by myself. Do you know, I stood there for at least four hours. It's so scary. This is the most... no, the second terrible thing I've ever experienced in my life!"

He used his exaggerated expressions and movements to express his hatred for the time just now, "Can you imagine it? Four hours, four hours! I couldn't move or talk for four hours. They didn't prepare anything for food. I was hungry and tired. If the old man asked me to go with him next time, I would definitely bring a chair and some food."

While Kandy was complaining, Dulin kept examining him. Dulin couldn't figure out how Kandy's somewhat "rebellious" talker successfully squeezed out other competitors and became the next pope.

Many people believe that the church, a bright place, must be bright inside, and everyone is really a happy family as mentioned in the scriptures.

In fact, these are all bullshits. The struggles within the church are even more intense and cruel than political struggles.

Every sect dispute means that thousands of "dissenters" are secretly hanged or burned to death, and most of the time they are burned to death. This is their way of treating losers and the only outcome for losers.

There have been several very cruel sectarian struggles in the history of the church, especially the Blood Sect, which advocates blood and killing and strengthens its own sect by plundering the essence of other lives. In the process of taking office, it massacred at least 200,000 "dissidents" believers who are both believers but advocate different doctrines.

The battles on the political stage are all back and forth, and winning or losing for a while does not represent anything. Sometimes, some losers have a chance to turn defeat into victory after hiding for more than ten years.

But in the church, there is no such situation. No one can get up after failure. Just as someone is so powerful that someone even has the idea of ​​slaughtering false gods and strange gods, they are eventually killed by the new sects, and even the doctrine and so-called divine arts are completely erased.

Including the current church, basically everyone knows that its full name is "Celestial Church". Before it, the church had other names. It was precisely because the denomination of the Lord of Heaven successfully suppressed other sects that today's church was found.

Those priests who often show their kindness in others' faces have actually been immersed in blood donation for a long time and cannot extricate themselves.

These real pasts have been completely buried by what people think of as "truth". The church also claims that the things recorded in the notes do not have any reference meaning, because the world where people and gods coexist does not exist, so it is more likely to be a conjecture, a story that monks within the church use some folk stories as references based on the content of some scriptures.

Even now, the struggle within the church is very fierce, which represents the peak of the empire and even the surrounding areas in the field of faith. There will be no higher mountain peaks. Whoever chooses will be the first person.

This guy Kandy doesn't look like a very powerful character. Why can he "accomplish the throne" because he can keep nagging?

The one who drove for Du Lin was the nephew of the local Affiliate Association. The president of the Affiliate Association regretted that he did not become the president of the Affiliate Association, but his current position is also very important.

His nephew has served Dulin more than once. Young people are very familiar with the emperor and are reliable enough. Therefore, whenever Dulin comes to the imperial capital, he is the driver.

After listening to Kandy's nonsense for more than ten minutes along the way, I finally arrived at a very distinctive restaurant before nine o'clock. The owner, chef, and waiters were all Oriental.

In the past two years, the connection between the empire and the East has never been broken, but more of it is in the exchanges between the people, mainly highlighting the aspects of culture and trade.

Some businessmen from the East have also begun to appear one after another, which always makes people feel very fresh. The mystery of the East tempts everyone. Even if it is just a restaurant, people want to try to feel some mysterious atmosphere of the East from here.

After entering the restaurant, there was no table in the spacious hall. The president's nephew whispered that this restaurant called "The Special Meaning of Bamboo" did not have an open way of dining in the hall. They advocated eating in a private environment.

This style is very popular among the upper class, especially those who need to talk about some secret matters. Now most restaurants in the imperial capital have private rooms, which are dedicated to entertaining customers in need.

Du Lin looked up and saw Zhuyun, the name is good!

After waiting for more than thirty seconds, a young oriental woman, who was only about 24 or 25 years old, came up wearing an oriental-style neutral gown, with a black background and a very complicated square character written on her chest. Du Lin didn't recognize her, but she looked like...Tai or Qin?

It may also be a music, but in short, there is some ancient style.

The girl with a distinct appearance spoke fluent lingerie and she knew Dulin, which made Kandy a little jealous, so that he was still talking about it while eating.

Under the girl's leadership, the group entered a room called "The noble style of bamboo". This sentence was translated by the president's nephew. The girl used a pure oriental language, with a very short pronunciation and elegant bamboo.

After ordering eighteen dishes, everyone else retreated, leaving only Dulin and Kandy in the room.

The two sat at the table, and Kandy suddenly stopped talking nonstop. He frowned and seemed to be thinking. After a while, he smiled and apologized for his loss of consciousness. "I'm very sorry, I just thought of a very important thing, and then I thought too much. You know that most successful people will have the habit of "focusing", and I have..."

Starting from concentration, he talked about the weather in recent days, then the weather forecast for the next few days, and then talked about the tourism and charity in Ambiluo State. During this period, he stopped several times because of the dishes. After all the dishes were served, he finally talked about the previous top council.

"Did you hear that they actually discussed the matter of subverting another country's regime so openly. The old man of God may fall from the sky when he knows it. I always thought we should discuss some good things."

"For example, charity events and donations, or somewhere to go for a trip, because spring is coming. I like spring, it's not that cold or hot, you know I'm a little fat, for me, summer is simply hell, and of course winter is not that comfortable because I have to wear a lot."

"I especially like my piece..."

Du Lin couldn't help but tap the table with his knuckles a few times, "Tell me the point, my friend."

Kandy was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses and used a shy smile to hide his little embarrassment. "Sorry, I changed the topic again. I mean they are too terrible. Everyone in that room lived in their hearts, and there was a demon everywhere..." He was stunned for a moment and laughed dryly again, "I didn't say you, I mean the others."

Dulin nodded slowly with his eyes closed. He felt that Kandy could become the pope because no one could convince him, and he was often convinced.

"The atmosphere there is very bad, lack of friendship, and everyone's heart is very dark. Look, you must know that you are not among the people I mentioned, so I think we should unite, only in this way can we fight against darkness and evil." After he finished speaking, he looked at Du Lin with anticipation, almost saying the prompt "No, hurry up" on his face.

Dulin kept silent all the time. He skillfully picked up some food with chopsticks, then glanced at Kandy, "Is this your real idea?"

"Just because of this?"

He placed the chopsticks on the chopstick stand. The environment here gave him an inexplicable sense of loss of control and disorder. He leaned back, pressed his hand on the edge of the table, and pressed his other arm on the back of the chair. He leaned his legs and looked at Kandy calmly. The two different periods of time and space seemed to have overlapped for a moment at this moment.

"There is no one else here, we can tell some truth."

In a daze, before Du Lin could come back to his senses, Kanti moved his eyes away first. He quickly turned his eyes back in discontent and met Du Lin's gaze, "This is the truth. Those people think too much, and they all look very difficult to touch. I don't like the style there, nor do I like the personalities of those people, except you."

"We are friends, we should help each other, and I only know you and can only contact you." He looked at Dulin sincerely, "We are friends!"

In fact, when this sentence was said, Du Lin wanted to laugh. Is an archbishop who can sit quietly and firmly in the struggle within the church, a fool-like talker?

If you think about it with your butt, you will know that this is absolutely impossible. The only explanation can only be said that all this is an illusion created by Kandy. He hid his true self in a place where no one can see it.

Such a person with means, ability and strategy showed that after the first participation in this meeting, he looked like "I'm having sex with you". It would be impossible to say that Du Lin had no doubt at all.

But at the same time, he was also confused. What was the purpose of doing this?

He nodded quietly, then stretched out his hand, "You are right, we are friends!"

Kandy looked at his hand, then looked at Dulin's smiling eyes, stretched out his hand and shook Dulin, "Then have we reached a covenant?"

Dulin nodded again, "Yes, offensive and defensive alliance!"

Kandy then felt relieved, "This is what I need. To be honest, I'm so hungry. Can we do it now..." He looked at the dishes on the table, and after Dulin nodded, he smiled and started eating.

Neither of them seemed to have any doubts about the covenant that had just happened to be like a child's play, as if it was true.

Of course it is indeed true!

While having a meal, the two talked about the people in the conference room and the issues, as well as today's unique meeting.

This meeting has absolutely different meanings for their lives, and it can even be said to have opened a new page for their lives.
Chapter completed!
