The admissions teacher was a black man. He chatted with me very friendly. The first thing he said was, why do you want to apply for a seminary? How do I know? You asked me to come. I asked honestly if I had made a mistake.
The teacher checked on the computer, probably my student number, and then told me that I submitted the application online and had recommendations from local churches, and had already paid tuition for 5 courses, and asked me if I was
I made a mistake myself, so I was advised to prepare well for class, and if I have any questions, I can contact him.
In short, even he didn't know. He also kindly helped me choose courses, one was New Testament studies, and the other was the history of monotheism. He also specifically told me that you haven't studied for a long time, and you should slowly start to adapt.
, it’s enough to choose two. This and what, I don’t want to choose any of them. If I ask about other things, he won’t know anything.
Seeing that there was no result, I had no choice but to come out. Not only did I not understand it, but I also got two extra courses inexplicably.
Yuzi told me with envy that she still wanted to be an international student and prepare to apply to the seminary, but I was admitted directly. It was really annoying. The problem is that I am angry now too, which made me face it in advance for no reason.
There are two things I don’t want to face: study or the Holy See. I’m not sure who is more troublesome. On the way home, I thought about it and probably asked the local church that recommended me. But, who recommended me? The church
Now, who should I look for? Forget it, let’s go home first.
When I got home, Kui came again and was instructing some workers to move the sofa into my room. It seemed that he couldn't wait any longer. The problem is that you didn't tell me, and I didn't tell you how he came in.
What's the password for his electronic lock?
"You're back, let's see how this sofa looks like. It's made of leather and fabric. It's wide enough and very comfortable to lie on." Kui started to introduce it when he saw me.
"Real leather? Whose leather? Aren't you afraid that the Bull Demon King will come after you?", I thought maliciously.
"You stop farming when you hear the cries of crickets? Besides, he won't come. He's not so narrow-minded. By the way, what are you doing out there?" Kui looked at Yuzi behind me.
"I'm going to university, and I'm looking for you." Ask him first and see what he says.
I told the story again, and after thinking about it, Kui said, "You should go to class first. It is probably done by the Holy See. Maybe it is a show of goodwill, maybe it is a test. But you are not at a disadvantage at the moment."
"Can I refund the tuition fees to my own account?" The church showed kindness to me and it would actually be better to give me the money directly.
"What do you think? You also work in the school." Kui looked at me playfully.
"Okay." I still understand the rules here. If you can't get a refund, you won't be refunded. If you do, a handling fee will be deducted.
"By the way, if you bring a coin with you when school starts, it may have unexpected effects." Kui added.
"School has started and I still have to go to work." Actually, I want to go to work more.
"You don't have to worry about this. As the new leader of the school, I will let you take classes with pay. Anyway, it's the same with or without you." He curled his lips.
"You don't talk like that! Even if it's the truth, it should sound nicer." Angry!
"Then let Shanshi continue to work part-time." If he couldn't beat him, I really wanted to give him a few slaps.
With a word from the new leader, I went to school with honor.
The first time I went there was to listen to the history of monotheistic religions. It basically talked about the origin of monotheistic religions from the Judean religion, a brief introduction to the time and circumstances of the establishment of monotheistic religions, and the subsequent split into the Celestial Monotheism and the Eastern Orthodox Church, and then the separation of new monotheisms. Chapter 1
There are many things that can be said in one lesson, but history is still very interesting. I just listened to the story of one lesson. There are only a few students in this class, and there are 16 people in the class including the teacher. It is basically difficult to fall asleep or skip class.
The teacher can remember everyone at once.
The second class is on the next day. Here is a brief introduction to the universities in Maple Leaf Country. In fact, the undergraduate universities here are based on the credit system. Each course has a credit. You can apply for graduation after completing the required number of credits. Among all the credits
Some are required courses, and some are electives. But this is not the case when you are a graduate student. Graduate students have research directions. Currently, I am mainly taking theology courses, and there are 5 compulsory courses.
Moreover, the university time in Maple Leaf Country is relatively loose. Each course is taught by more than one teacher, so students can choose different classes according to their own time. For example, if you choose Professor A’s class, he may only take it every week.
Last week on Wednesdays and Fridays, you had 2 hours of classes every day, so your class time is the same as his. After class, you go home and do your homework or projects. At the end of the semester, some teachers give you exams, and some ask you to hand in papers.
, 70 points is enough to pass.
The rest of the time is your own. You can do research, go to the library, go home and cook, or do anything else. As long as your homework and papers are submitted in time, it will be very easy. My second course is New Testament.
The research is done on different days, so I actually come here 4 days a week and only spend 2 hours a day.
The course on the second day was relatively boring. The content of the New Testament was not as good as the Old Testament. It was a bit like Buddhist scriptures or Taoist scriptures, one by one, so I stayed up until the end of get out of class in a daze.
I was just about to pack my things when the professor suddenly appeared in front of me.
"Child, do you think the New Testament course is difficult? I see that you are listless. Does it mean that my course is not attractive?", he asked me softly while holding the Bible.
"No, I didn't sleep well yesterday. Your class was still very exciting. I'm looking forward to the next class." If you ask anyone who is not good, they are looking for me.
"Really, kid, it's not a good habit to be duplicitous. Especially as a Taoist, it's really difficult for you to study the Bible." The professor continued to squint his eyes and look at me with a kind face.
"!!", how did he know if he was the one who was looking for me? I immediately became alert.
"Yes, kid, you should know who I am. You took 33 silver coins from us. When Judas betrayed Jesus, it was only 30 silver coins. We gave you 10% more." The old man started counting with me on his fingers.
Already.
"What do you mean, who do you want me to betray?" The meaning is too profound.
"Don't say it so harshly. It's not a betrayal. We just want to talk to you. I am Thomas, my Chinese name is Guo Liansi, a bishop of the Diocese of Big T. Don't be nervous, it's just an ordinary conversation. Let's go here.
, it’s easy to relax in the classroom.”
"What do you want to say?"
"Don't be nervous, kid, I can feel your nervousness. I'm not here specifically for you today, I'm just curious about who can take away so many of our Holy Gong silver coins at once. You must know that no devil can touch them."
I took out the one I carried with me from my pocket and asked, "Is this it? I don't see anything special about it. There are no patterns or markings."
"Child, if you can touch it, it means there is no evil power in you. If you have holy power in your body, it will show more miracles. Now I will demonstrate it for you."
