Chapter 9 Chu Zihang: I want to believe in the emperor!
Chapter 9 Chu Zihang: I want to believe in the emperor!
This super typhoon did not cause too much panic in this coastal city, and most people happily enjoyed the unexpected three-day vacation at home.
After the wind speed dropped early in the morning, trailer trucks drove onto the elevated road to rescue those vehicles that were trapped when the typhoon made landfall.
Everyone who was rescued was ecstatic about having escaped from death.
They spent a thrilling night in the closed car, thanking God for the car not being overturned by the hurricane.
In the end, there were only two teenagers standing silently in the wind and rain standing guard at the exit.
The clothes on the slightly smaller one were in tatters, revealing beautiful muscle lines, presumably from regular exercise.
He just stood there, unafraid of the low temperature and wind and cold, his face was serious, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The older one was drenched, as if he was about to freeze, his body trembled slightly, but he didn't move his feet.
He stared sadly and hopefully at every car that was towed down, until all the tow trucks and the police had evacuated, but none of them found the person he was waiting for.
He squatted down slowly, as if hope was completely extinguished.
"Don't be so sad...your father should still be alive."
"Since he has said so, then we can only believe him."
Lu Mingfei sighed and wiped off the cold rain on his face.
Chu Zihang didn't answer.
"Don't worry, I owe your father a favor."
"The next time I go in, I will cut off the head of that false god and save your father."
Lu Mingfei sat down on the wet ground and looked up at the sky.
The two were silent for a long time in the cold wind, until Chu Zihang turned his head to look at him, and said softly:
"The god you believe in...is the title the Emperor?"
"..."
Lu Mingfei lifted his spirits, and immediately sat upright, with a pious and serious expression on his face:
"Emperor is not a title, but a great symbol."
"He is the patron saint of all mankind, he loves all living beings, and is the tower of hope for mankind in the dark galaxy."
"He is immortal and existed long before the first human city was built, guiding mankind forward in different identities in different eras."
"His splendor shelters valiant souls to the golden throne, rather than sinking into the abyss of filth..."
Lu Mingfei was eloquent, praising the will of the great emperor, like a fanatic.
Virtually all Astartes are fanatics of the Emperor.
"You became an angel... because of Him?"
Chu Zihang asked seriously.
"Yes, that is a psionic blessing from the Great Emperor."
"Can everyone who believes in him receive this blessing?"
Lu Mingfei saw the flame of revenge burning in Chu Zihang's eyes.
He shook his head gravely, and said:
"We were never loyal to the Emperor for the blessing of his power."
"His existence itself is the guiding light of human beings. We will serve him everything and protect his loyal human beings for him."
"I have seen countless mortal soldiers who do not have the physical strength and power armor of the Astartes warriors."
"But in the face of those horrible alien enemies, they never flinched, and fought for the emperor with the most steadfast loyalty and belief to the last moment."
……
While talking, Lu Mingfei realized that he had slipped his tongue.
He inadvertently shared some experiences of his soul fighting in that icy universe——
This is the biggest secret in his heart.
Fortunately, Chu Zihang's expression didn't change much. After witnessing the epic scene last night, the world he knew had already collapsed.
"……I understand."
After listening, Chu Zihang got up silently and walked down the viaduct entrance alone.
Lu Mingfei really wanted to catch up and ask him a few more questions, but after thinking about it, forget it.
This child has experienced such a great stimulation, it is better to let him calm down alone.
"Praise the Emperor."
Lu Mingfei looked at Chu Zihang's retreating back and prayed in a low voice.
After leaving the elevated road, the remaining radiance of the Emperor cleansed his hands contaminated by the spear of false gods.
After a while, his expression became gloomy again.
He's ignoring a pretty big problem.
The Emperor's eyes can reach here, doesn't that mean that his hometown is also in that cold and dark universe?
Those aliens - war mad greenskins, ravenous and hungry zerg, weird and evil Eldar...
Will their dirty claws touch this beautiful planet one day?
Lu Mingfei's thoughts began to fluctuate violently.
But after a while, it calmed down in the sound of prayers.
"First remove all the false gods and aliens here."
He whispered to himself, his eyes firm.
……
The fifth day after the typhoon.
Chu Zihang knocked on the door of Lu Mingfei's house.
"Who, came to visit the door when it was almost time for dinner..."
My aunt put down the kitchen knife in her hand and ran to open the door, only to see a ruthless boy wearing sunglasses.
"Hello, Auntie. My name is Chu Zihang..."
My aunt froze for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise:
"Chu Zihang? Are you that Chu Zihang from Shilan Middle School?!"
Even the aunt of the housewife has heard of the number one person in Shilan Middle School from Lu Mingze.
"What? Chu Zihang came to our house?"
The chubby Lu Mingze also rushed out of the room when he heard his mother's voice.
This is big news, let the students in the school know, then you will be very powerful!
He desperately wanted to find a camera in his father's room and take a picture of this memorable scene.
"Yes, I'm looking for Lu Mingfei."
As soon as Chu Zihang said this, Lu Mingze was immediately discouraged like a rubber ball.
Auntie's face suddenly became a little strange:
"Look for Lu Mingfei...he's here now...uh, pray, do you want to come in and sit down?"
"Pray...Then I'll wait for him here. Please, Auntie."
Chu Zihang's expression remained unchanged, and he thanked his aunt politely.
After a few minutes, Lu Mingfei appeared in front of Chu Zihang calmly:
"what can I do for you?"
"Well. I want to worship the Emperor."
Chu Zihang also responded calmly.
"puff!"
The aunt who pretended to be drinking water was actually eavesdropping and sprayed Lu Mingze all over the face.
She has seen the changes in her nephew in the past few months.
In addition to the rapid progress and getting up on time at four o'clock in the morning every day to go out to exercise, he burns incense at home every day and prays at home like an old monk.
Even before eating, I have to say "Thank you aunt for preparing delicious meals for us, may the emperor bless us".
Then she and her husband searched through Journey to the West and the list of gods overnight, but they couldn't find the god named Emperor.
After the idea of "being possessed by dirty things" was rejected by his uncle, "Our old Lu family are all staunch materialist fighters", my aunt suspected that Lu Mingfei believed in some messy things that the country is still cracking down on.
But fortunately, Lu Mingfei's usual behavior was as perfect as "other people's children", and he was worried that the monthly support payments would be sent to other places, so his aunt did not immediately call the police.
But now even the star student Chu Zihang said that he must trust some emperor, and if his parents came to find him, he would be in great trouble!
She wanted to speak out to dissuade her, but she heard Lu Mingfei agree:
"Ok."
"Is that all right? There is no... initiation ceremony?"
"Um……"
Lu Mingfei thought for a while, then grabbed Chu Zihang's hand, and said seriously:
"Now you are my battle brother."
