Victory Utopia

"No! Please, let go of my Maggie!" Elizabeth cried helplessly, and one person on each side grabbed her arm, holding her down to prevent her from rushing over. "My God! What are you doing!"

Margaret struggled desperately, but the stronger her reaction, the harder it would be for the man who tied her to hit her harder.

She didn't even wear shoes on her feet, maybe she didn't have time to put them on or they fell off during the push. The girl's slender ankles were only wearing socks, exposed in front of so many people, she kept shrunk into her skirt embarrassingly.

A woman pointed to her skirt and cried, "How shameless, look at her!"

"What a slut! Taking off her shoes in front of so many people, I can't imagine we used to call her Miss!"

The person who spoke was actually a girl who looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old. Her eyes were full of resentment when she looked at Margaret, as vicious as she wished she could swallow Margaret alive.

Surrounded by guns, Qin Yu and his party were forced to watch this crazy farce.

No matter in ancient China or Europe, women were not allowed to show their parts except their arms and face. This bad habit of restricting women's freedom was vividly staged before their eyes.

Taking off your shoes is also a metaphor.

Lose chastity.

Qin Yu thought, they must do something.

Margaret's face was flushed with embarrassment, she shook her head and screamed in fear: "Let go of me! What are you fools doing! Mom! Mom——!"

The crowd roared, shouting for God to judge, and Wood stepped forward.

Wood stepped on the delicately patterned feet, waved his hand gracefully, and the crowd fell silent.

Margaret's hands were tied behind her back, and the dry branches under her feet were poured with oil. She had never been treated like this before, and she cried softly.

"Everyone, please listen to me." Wood said, he put the scriptures on his chest, and his robes swayed with his movements, "At the request of Bicester Manor and the people who are suffering from illness and harm, I came from The distant St. Pad's Church is here for the sacramental purification of Miss Beester's soul tonight."

"Since last month, everyone here must have suffered disasters to varying degrees, and I think everyone has the answer in their hearts when all these disasters have come." He took a step aside to let the embarrassed Margot Lite was exposed in front of everyone, "In order to avoid those who want to say that we planted blame, I, Wood, am willing to bet my qualifications to serve before Jesus, and state her sins one by one."

He turned to Elizabeth, who was almost fainted, and smiled slightly: "Mrs. Biester, this is all for the good of your daughter, please forgive me."

Qin Yu looked at the crowd, and none of the two servants were present.

"Baker and Lisa are not here." He said to Ge Yin with a volume that only two people could hear.

Ge Yin stared at the ground tightly, and the only response he got was silence.

The jaw line on that face was tense, Qin Yu knew he was very angry seeing such absurd scene.

His palms covered the backs of his hands again.

"Remember what God said." Qin Yu said.

The pastor opened the scriptures, closed his eyes and said, "O supreme and just Lord, your people are seeking your revelation. If you can hear me, please give us a way to heaven."

The believers put down their weapons one after another, and clenched their fists in front of their chests, listening to prayers devoutly.

Qu Shan said to the gunman next to him: "Why don't you pray, don't you love and respect your Lord?"

No one responded to her.

Wood continued: "You give us food, give us fine wine, and give us a happy life. We are willing to serve you and repay you with our whole lives."

"But now, fear has occupied the hearts of your people. We have lost cattle and sheep, food and wine, and some people have lost their lives." Wood became a little excited, and his speech speed accelerated: "There are unfaithful people among us." Man, she brought disaster, brought disaster, you know?!! She is here now!"

Wood stepped on the firewood, stood beside Margaret, grabbed her hair and forced her to look up: "It's her! Margaret Beester! She sowed the seeds of Satan and opened the door for the devil to enter the world !"

The crowd cheered and waved their fists excitedly.

Margaret's body trembled, she was stripped of her pride and tied up like a slaughtered animal.

Her calves trembled, as if her mother had asked her to dance with the Viscount when she was taken to a ball for the first time.

"Perhaps, some people will think that I have slandered the Bicester family, but this woman has committed a lot of evil. Before the sacrament, please invite them to testify, what exactly did Margaret do."

Wood said slowly, walked down, took the towel handed by the believer, and wiped his hands in disgust.

The first person to stand on the platform was a peasant woman, obviously nervous, wiping her thick hands on her apron.

"I, I raise my hair." Her voice was trembling, and her eyes kept glancing at Elizabeth next to her. "Miss Margaret——she has an improper relationship with a foreigner..."

Perhaps seeing that she was afraid of the power of the Bicester family, Wood walked up to her and held that hand: "This kind lady, you don't have to be afraid of the coercion of those powerful powers, Jesus will bless you. Your words The action is for the good of everyone."

Elizabeth said weakly: "You all will go to hell..."

Wood ignored her and let the peasant woman continue talking.

The peasant woman took a few deep breaths, perhaps with the support of the pastor, she obviously gained confidence: "She has an affair with that knight named Gordon, I often see her running to the basement of the manor alone late at night, no I know what to do in a sneaky way. Once, I woke up at night and saw her go in again, so I was curious and followed her to see—”

She saw Margaret walking towards the innermost part of the basement holding a candlestick.Humming a song, looking very happy.

"Our basement has two exits, and the other exit can lead to the vineyard of the manor. She must have met her lover when she went there so late!"

"I didn't! It's none of Gordon's business! You're talking nonsense!!" Margaret retorted, with tears in her eyes, "I didn't..."

However, she couldn't shake the opinion of this group of people, she could only watch them swear at her and utter all kinds of bad words.

"Next." Wood said.

The second is a middle-aged man with a loud voice and mustache that moves up and down as he speaks.

He raised his hands: "Everyone listen to me, what I want to report is not Miss Margaret's affair with a foreigner, but another, even more heinous thing."

He whistled behind him, and two men ran out of the house.

Qin Yu watched those two people running over. They were carrying a square object, and when they got closer, they could see clearly that it was a painting.

"Look, this is the conclusive proof that Margaret is the son of Satan!"

The middle-aged man threw the painting on the ground. The moment Elizabeth saw it, she fell to the ground in horror.

The huge picture frame was picked up by people in a hurry, and the flames shot up into the sky. Qin Yu could clearly see the content of the painting.

Bold color smear, red and black interaction.Burning crosses, bowed saints.

Jesus engulfed in flames.

"Look, look! She is not a believer in Jesus at all. She was deeply influenced by Satan, and the painting she drew was the cause of the disaster! Everyone said, why should such a witch continue to harm us here? ?"

"She painted our savior in the flames of purgatory suffered by Satan. This woman's heart has been completely devoured by the devil. We can't sit still and let her lead more disasters to the manor!"

The audience was in an uproar, and then more shouts and curses sounded.Wood stood by, contemptuous of Elizabeth's downcast appearance.

At this moment he stood up and said loudly, "The Lord told me—"

The believers are all waiting for his next words.

Wood waved his hand and pointed at Margaret.

"This girl is at our disposal."

As soon as this remark came out, it seemed that a king's order had been issued, and the believers went crazy.

"Burn her! Burn her!"

The people who had gradually eroded their minds with anger became even more agitated. Every face of them was filled with dancing flames, which distorted their faces, making them look like real people in hell.

Qin Yu wanted to speak, but the cold muzzle of the gun hit his temple at the same time, and he remembered the manor in the daytime.

God says, don't try to piss off a group led by a man of faith and articulateness.

"You guys are all crazy..." The boy's voice was trembling.

Qi Minmin murmured in disbelief: "It's not true...they wouldn't really burn her to death, right..."

Tears welled up in Qi Yaoyao's eyes, the doctor patted her on the shoulder lightly, and sighed helplessly.

"Are we just looking at it like this?" Qu Shan gritted his teeth and said.

What Qin Yu wanted to say, he could bring down these tenants, and so could Ge Yin.We are outnumbered, and if there is a scuffle, someone may be injured or even die.

But there are also young children and old people here.

No one should be that "possible".

They are not omnipotent, and they can't do anything to bring everyone down.

A gunshot interrupted his train of thought.

The bullet hit Wood's feet.

The believers had already lit the fire, Margaret screamed, the tongue of fire licked her skirt and skin, and Elizabeth cried miserably.

Then they watched the tables turn.

Qin Yu didn't see how fast Ge Yin was, but at the moment of the gunshot, he reacted before the tenant and punched the tenant on the nose.The man fell, and the others panicked.

Then, Qu Shan kicked the two of them, Qin Yu rushed up to grab the shotgun, and pressed his knee on their chests.

He grabbed one of them by the collar and suppressed his voice: "Next time, aim a little bit."

After subduing the three of them, Qin Yu raised his head to look at Ge Yin.And Ge Yin grabbed the man's gun, and rushed to the side of the execution frame in two steps, the moment he pulled the gun, the muzzle of the gun was firmly pressed against Wood's forehead.

The believers fell silent.

"You know what to say." The man's voice was cold, like a devil whispering.

Wood was so frightened that his face was sweating, he quickly waved his hands and called: "Put the lady down! Hurry up!"

Qin Yu's heart tightened.Qu Shan said: "It's over."

No one moved.

Two seconds later, someone finally responded.

He was carrying a wooden barrel, but poured the liquid inside on Margaret, and the flames shot up, completely enveloping Margaret.Margaret's voice was drowned out by the howling of the fire.

Elizabeth passed out completely.

The man yelled at Wood: "Mr. Reverend! It's all for the manor!"

He raised the wooden barrel and poured all the remaining oil on Wood.

Tongues of fire climbed up his body along the oil.The scriptures fell to the ground.

At that moment, Ge Yin's spear missed the point.
