Harry Potter Morning Light

Joseph was guided to the restaurant.

The restaurant in the Apostolic Palace was not decorated the same way as the Last Supper, but it also had a walnut dining table that could accommodate twelve people. Corrado Baducci and American Archbishop Harvey sat on the left and right of the Pope.

Even though the restaurant is very luxurious, if the food in front of you is lackluster, it cannot be called a banquet. The Holy See who has just been discharged from the hospital can only eat liquid food. The seafood porridge prepared by the nutritionist is easy to digest and full of nutrition. For the elderly with Jinsen syndrome, it is not a small problem to put the soup and water into the mouth with a spoon.

Fortunately, he is the Pope, and there is a butler serving him, but even a butler will not feed the Pope in front of outsiders like the staff in the nursing home.

The pope didn't move the food on the plate, and the other two couldn't move their spoons no matter how hungry they were, so the food that was the protagonist of lunch time became a decoration, and the three of them talked and laughed happily while drinking wine. That scene made people feel stomach ache.

"Ah, Joseph, come here." The Pope waved to the young exorcist, "We are just talking about you."

Joseph looked at the other two calmly. He knew Archbishop Harvey. At this time, he was drinking to hide his expression, while Corrado Baducci was looking at him. Zong was younger, but his hair and beard were all white. He looked tired all over his body, his eyelids were loose, and he looked as if he had fallen ill.

"What are you talking about about me?" Joseph naturally sat under Archbishop Harvey, diagonally opposite Corrado Baducci.

"I heard that you are quite famous in the United States." Corrado Baducci smiled friendly. "You have solved many difficult cases."

"Does Jesus look as good as me?"

As soon as Joseph finished speaking, the expressions of everyone in the restaurant froze.

"Fate is always unkind to me, but God finally gave me a handsome face, so people can easily remember me. In fact, there are many excellent exorcists and priests in our diocese, and they have made a lot of contributions. "

"How do you know that the Holy Son is not as handsome as you?" Archbishop Harvey asked with a smile.

"Then he has to shave off his beard. Except for the one on the Sistine Chapel mural, all the other crucifixes have beards, so it's too difficult to distinguish."

Corrado Baducci stroked his beard. He was the only bearded man in the restaurant.

"Compared with solving cases, I prefer the term believers. The world likes 'power'. When technology can bring them power, they are full of fantasies about technology. From this, there are science fiction movies and novels, but they ignore it. one question."

"What question?" Harvey asked with interest.

"Who has the power of this technology? In ancient times, people formed a country to fight against natural disasters and forces that could not be countered by individual strength. Now the country has become a country that protects citizens from being harmed by other countries' destructive weapons. The power of technology is strengthened to do whatever they want. Above other countries, even above God, atheists have a sense of superiority when talking about religion, just like higher civilizations look down on lower civilizations, and only when they encounter problems that cannot be solved by science will they think of God. Since there is a God Why are there no devils? Wouldn’t it be chilling to give such dangerous power to people with psychological problems? Is technology protecting or killing humans? I think this question is much more interesting than discussing how many devils I have defeated.”

"What's your opinion?" asked the pope.

"Change the minds of Westerners and give up the research and development of increasingly out-of-control technologies. You know, the Vatican does not have any particularly advanced security measures. Even if it is a museum with many treasures on display, if there is no evil spirit, no one will open the door. Stealing and conversely if there is a murderous intent, a rope that can be found anywhere and even a pillow can kill, are we going to ban the sale of pillows because they are afraid they can suffocate people? There is a problem with the human heart, Holy Father, and that is something that science cannot fix Yes, when people are in awe, they will restrain their words and deeds, and they will not feel that they can do whatever they want if they have the power."

"Do you think it's possible?" Archbishop Harvey continued to ask with a smile.

"I thought it was time to discuss light topics during dinner, what do you think?" Joseph turned his gaze to Corrado Baducci.

The latter also took a sip of water from the goblet.

"How did it feel to attend Mass today?" asked the Pope.

"Good." Joseph said.

"The rosary."

"I took it last night. It seems to belong to the Saintess of Lourdes." Joseph paused, and then said, "Can I make a request?"

"What?" asked the pope.

"This time, can I use Lude's spring water for the blessing of Fuze Spring?"

"Why?" Archbishop Harvey asked.

"Strength, I heard that the spring water there is still curative even without Lourdes."

"Why do you want so many relics?" Corrado Baducci asked.

"The same reason, power." Joseph said with a confident smile, "Have you ever exorcised a demon yourself?"

"No."

"But I think you have at least seen it with your own eyes. Most of the nature we understand is the outer nature, and we know very little about the inner nature. In the face of this wild world, we can do very little defense. That's what I need. For the sake of holy objects, build the most complete defense possible, just like the walls of the Vatican, the pope will be safe inside."

"What you're doing is formality."

"An exorcism is a ritual, it's just not the same as a mass."

"Do you think communion exorcism doesn't work?"

"I thought it was time to discuss interesting topics while eating."

"I hope to see you preach at Easter, Holy Father, your wisdom will enlighten us," Archbishop Harvey told the Pope.

"You are the house, and you are also the occupant of the house. When a person dies, the soul will leave the body." The Pope said in a hoarse voice, "The soul is the guest of the body, and it will leave one day."

"Descartes didn't think so," Joseph said. "He saw passion as a product of a necessary mathematical order, and even described a heart-shaped curve."

"You don't think so?" Harvey asked.

"What I say next may offend you."

"Don't worry about it, just talk about it," said the Pope.

"We all know that the shape of the heart is not heart-shaped. Descartes may not have known it. He was a mathematician and physicist. He did not dissect the human body like Leonardo da Vinci. The so-called 'heart-shaped' is actually It is a woman's buttocks, and the pleasures associated with his body are all desires, and people who are driven by desires can also taste the sweetest taste in life, but they do not know how to control their desires, and their fate is not good At that time, they may also experience the most bitter part of life."

All fell silent together.

"I'm sorry, Holy Father, I shouldn't have been so direct."

"It's okay." The Pope shook his hand and stopped Joseph. "Descartes believed that the soul is stored in the blood. Do you think he is right?"

Joseph thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"I do not know, Father, but the blood must have power, or Longinus would not have recovered his light after being splashed with it."

On the Saturday before Easter, the blessing of Fuzequan will be held, "the Holy Spirit descends and sinks into the water", so that ordinary water will have divine properties and can transform human beings. The "eternal water" in alchemy is very likely It is derived from Catholicism and is said to be one of the ingredients of the elixir
