Mo Shouchen threw the bottle filled with blood on the ground. Karen on the side asked doubtfully: "Brother, why did you throw away the holy water?"
Mo Shouchen took out a piece of paper to wipe his hands and said, "The water in this pool is not holy water at all, but blood!"
"Blood? Impossible. When I attended my grandma's funeral two days ago, the priest sprinkled holy water on my grandma's body. I could see clearly at that time that there was clearly transparent holy water in the pool."
"For some reason, this church has undergone terrible changes, so it is not surprising that the holy water has turned into blood. Since there is no holy water, we have to rely on ourselves. Let's go upstairs."
After speaking, Mo Shouchen walked towards the wooden door on the right side of the hall. Karen said that behind the door was the confession room, and through the confession room was the staircase leading upstairs.
He walked to the wooden door and opened it. The space inside was not too big, and there was a wooden room like a telephone booth in the middle.
He had seen this thing on TV. There was a compartment inside, and people who needed to confess could tell their sins to the priest through the compartment and pray for God's forgiveness.
Mo Shouchen had no interest in the confession room, so he went around to go to the innermost stairs.
But after bypassing the confession room, he found a figure standing at the stairs in front of him.
He immediately shook the keyboard in his hand and walked cautiously towards the figure.
As the distance got closer, Mo Shouchen felt more and more pressure on this figure. This thing was not at the same level as the group of prayers he had just encountered.
Just when he was considering whether to take the initiative, Karen, who was following him, suddenly said: "Father?"
Mo Shouchen stopped, then turned around and asked, "Do you know him?"
Karen nodded and said, "He is the priest in the church and he is easy to talk to. We can ask him what happened here."
"The priest in the church?"
Mo Shouchen turned around and looked at the figure standing at the top of the stairs warily. A closer look revealed that he was indeed wearing a priest's black robe.
But even the holy water in the holy pool has turned into blood. Will the priest in the church still be the same priest?
"You guys wait here, I'll go over and take a look."
Because there wasn't much space here, Mo Shouchen didn't let anyone else follow him. He swallowed and then walked towards the priest cautiously.
When he was only four or five meters away, he finally saw the priest's face clearly. Except for his cold expression, the priest looked no different from ordinary people.
However, the priest just stood there, looking directly at him without saying anything, which made people feel chills on his back.
The other party didn't make any moves, and Mo Shouchen couldn't make the first move, and the aura emanating from the priest made him feel a little wary, so he decided to say hello first and explore the other party's true identity.
He said politely: "Hello, I'm Karen's friend. Karen said that this place looks different from the daytime. Do you know what's going on?"
After waiting for a long time, there was no response from the priest, so Mo Shouchen had to change the question and asked: "Karen said her grandma put the red dancing shoes here. Do you know about this?"
As a result, the priest still didn't react at all. If he hadn't seen his eyes blink occasionally, Mo Shouchen would have doubted whether what he saw in front of him was just a wax figure.
The priest was standing there, and Mo Shouchen couldn't stay here forever, but the staircase was very narrow, and the priest was standing in the middle, so he had to press against his body to pass.
If the priest suddenly attacks when passing by, that would be too passive.
So Mo Shouchen decided to ask the last question. If the priest didn't respond, he could only give the priest a touch of the keyboard to see if the priest really wouldn't move.
"Father, we want to take a look upstairs. Can you move out of the way?"
This time the priest actually reacted. He focused his eyes on Mo Shouchen, stared at it for a moment, and then said: "Go to the confessional and tell me about the crimes you committed. As long as God forgives you, I will let you go upstairs."
.”
Mo Shouchen looked back at the confessional. He always felt that the priest asked him to go to the confessional, not just to make him confess his crimes.
Who knows if something terrible will happen after entering.
It seems that this battle is inevitable.
Mo Shouchen took half a step back, ready to fight, but before attacking, he suddenly asked on a whim: "Father, I'm in a hurry. Do you think you can put the confession aside for a while?"
"Okay, then I'll wait until you come back to repent!"
Mo Shouchen just asked casually, but he didn't expect the priest to actually agree. It seemed that Karen was right, the priest was really easy to talk to.
Of course, this could also be a trick by the priest. Maybe he wanted to trick himself into getting closer and then launch a sudden attack.
However, Mo Shouchen quickly dispelled this doubt, because after the priest finished speaking, he walked directly to the side and gave up the entire staircase.
He held the keyboard and slowly walked against the wall towards the stairs, paying attention to every move of the priest. As long as the priest moved even slightly, he would swing the keyboard and smash it over without hesitation.
But until he walked up the stairs, the priest stood there motionless, and it seemed that he really planned to let them go upstairs.
Mo Shouchen walked up a few steps, then turned around and waved to the people below, telling them to come up quickly.
They followed Mo Shouchen's example and walked up the stairs, leaning against the wall. When Karen walked over, she bowed to the priest and said "thank you".
Several people went upstairs safely, but unlike the first floor, the second floor was completely dark with no moonlight at all.
Mo Shouchen took out the flashlight from his bag and turned it on to take a photo. He saw that the second floor was a long and narrow corridor, with rooms on both sides of the corridor.
I guess the windows are all in the house, so there is no light in the corridor.
Mo Shouchen asked Karen: "What are these rooms on the second floor used for?"
Karen replied: "I heard from my grandma that the previous priest had medical skills, and the second floor was used to house patients. However, there was an outbreak of plague, and he was infected, and he was overworked, so he died not long after.
.”
"The current priests don't know medical skills, so the second floor is of no use, so it can only be used as a dormitory, but most of the rooms are empty."
"I know, let's go!"
Mo Shouchen nodded, and then walked forward with a flashlight. Because he felt that something might rush out of the rooms on both sides of the corridor at any time, he kept his attention on the doors on both sides.
But after passing a few rooms, his hand suddenly trembled because he saw the flashlight beating in front of him illuminated a pale face...
