The layered routine of vest essence

Wen Yu thought about the dream he had last night.

Ellis became a five-year-old girl living in a slum in the north. There were two twin sisters and a three-year-old younger brother at home. The whole family lived on the meager income of their parents working for others. , Not to mention going to school, I didn't even have enough food.

In this way, I stumbled in my dream and grew up to be more than ten years old. Ellis, or the little girl named "Ai Li" in the dream, began to follow the two twin sisters to work in a nearby textile factory. The three of them traveled together, leaving early and returning late. , a period of time in peace.

Until one night, the three of them were blocked in an alley by a group of hooligans who didn't know where they came from. These hooligans were different from the skinny bastards in the slums on weekdays, each with big arms and round waists.

In recent years, even if the two sisters have been hungry and thin, they can't conceal their vitality and fragrance as girls. The punks can be said to be very proficient in this, so they want to step forward to pull.

In his dream, Ellis couldn't control his behavior at all. He watched the two sisters hide "Ai Li" behind them.

As a girl in her teens, not to mention living in a slum since she was a child, "Ai Li" is precocious and sensible, and she understands that her sisters are trying to find a way out. She quietly leans against the wall and shrinks into the trash can at the back. His eyes widened, trying to remember the faces of these villains.

It's a pity that no matter how eloquent the two weak women are, they can't escape this dark dead end with their whole bodies, let alone call people. Just when Ellis thought that the family was about to suffer bad news and this nightmare would wake up again. A silver-haired man with a clear face suddenly fell from the sky, and kicked the big man holding my sister's hand to the ground with one kick.

The two sisters withdrew their hands in shock, and pressed against the wall tightly, not daring to make a sound.

As soon as the gangsters saw the person coming, their original arrogance was immediately extinguished, and they even rushed outside in fear.

But it seemed that they had bumped into some invisible barrier. No matter how hard they tried to rush out, they were still standing still.

"Did you take me to the base camp yourself or should I beat them one by one?" said the silver-haired man, "I didn't want to beat you, but who told you to come to this kind of place to disgust my eyes."

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, the already huge bodies of the punks swelled further, brown and black hair crawled up their faces, and the originally greenish pupils shone faintly in the dark alley.

Some of them jumped on the silver-haired man, but no one saw what happened, only to see two huge bodies fell heavily on the ground, making a heavy muffled sound.

Ai Li couldn't help but exclaimed, looking at her from this angle, those eyes were staring right at her.

Seeing that there was no hope of fighting back, the other transformed gangsters couldn't help but have the evil thought of dragging people behind even if they died, and the sudden exclamation of the young Ai Li without exception caught their attention.

One of the werewolves roared and stabbed her chest without hesitation. Blood flowed out from her chest. The severe pain made Ai Li's young body twitch twice. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the pain. The second sister, who absolutely wanted to run towards her, was held back by the pained elder sister, who didn't even realize what happened for a while.

It turns out that big brother didn't come to save them...

Alice only felt Alice's last thought, and then his vision went dark, and he woke up.

Even though it seemed like more than ten years had passed in his dream, it was still just an ordinary night when he woke up.

Like a normal dream, he can't control his body and mind, and even the other people he sees in the dream can't see their faces clearly.

For example, Ellie knows that she has a pair of sisters who look exactly the same, but Ellis can't see the two of them clearly, and subconsciously tells him that these two sisters actually look like this.

Alice shouldn't know what these dreams represent, but Wen Yu is still very clear.

The little bastard who couldn't see his face clearly was probably a werewolf who came to have fun, and the silver-haired man could clearly guess that it was Theodore who hadn't fallen asleep a hundred years ago.

Hiss, thinking carefully, I'm afraid, Aili's two older sisters can't be Ann and Mina, right?

The sight of the twins is too strong, and Wen Yu reasonably suspects that the two sisters were taken away by Theodore after this incident.

Ellis also had a lot of dreams, all of which were people or things that contained supernatural phenomena without exception. For this reason, his prayers became more devout, and he believed that the Lord would give him new strength.

After graduating from the middle-level seminary, Ellis was pushed to the higher-level college without exception, and then he was favored by the priest who was in charge of purification in the previous Holy See, and became one of the candidates for the internship priest.

The rocket-like promotion speed has undoubtedly aroused the envy of everyone. Compared with the other two powerful candidates in the family, Ellis can be said to be a typical character who is weak and helpless.

"Hey, Ellis!" The young man in a delicate white robe called out with a condescending expression, "Can you do the cleaning of the mass place tonight? George and I can go to Father Peter's class. What do you have?" We will help you with the problem."

"I hope you can clean up the place before we come back, otherwise I won't speak for you when Father Mullen asks tomorrow."

Ellis put down the book in his hand, seemed a little stunned, but still smiled at the young man, "Okay, say hello to Father Peter for me."

"Just ask me how to explain the terms on page 250 and third of the book."

The boy stopped talking and turned to leave, leaving Ellis alone in the room slowly flipping through the books to be studied tomorrow.

Another platinum-haired boy outside the door saw the people coming out, hid something behind his back, and said with a sigh of relief, "Eris, he agreed again?"

"When did he refuse my words?" The white-clothed boy smiled disdainfully, "Isn't he just a trash who can't speak hard, I don't know why the great priest took him in together."

"Blake, if he doesn't clean it up, it's our responsibility if Father Mullen asks about it tomorrow." George put the book he planned to ask about that night into his bag, his face full of worry, "I always feel that something is wrong with him, You said, why did he tell us the news about Father Peter's lecture?"

Blake let out a hellish "ha", "Did you take the wrong medicine recently? Isn't Ellis the kind guy from the beginning to the end? I guess he still thinks it's his honor to help me."

"It's not the first time anyway, so there's nothing to be afraid of."

George thought about it, and felt that it made sense, and his worried heart was relieved.

"Let's go, if we can get acquainted with Father Peter, we will have a chance to go out on the field." Black looked confident.

"Then did he say anything?"

"It seems that I said to help him ask some questions, I can't remember." Black waved his hand indifferently, with a look of disgust on his face, "Anyway, it is probably another question to show his strength. Good student..."

The two stopped discussing this topic and resumed talking about the evening class.

Ellis, who was reading in the room, looked at the clock and smiled comfortably.

Those two idiots must have headed straight to Father Peter's Thunder Point to dance disco.

He walked slowly into the room where he was preparing for mass, watched the dust all over the floor silently turned on the lights, the gentle wind and clear water wrapped around his fingertips, and the huge room was instantly clean and clean.

Ellis fiddled with the position of the sanitary ware by the way, it looked like someone had used it.

Then he took out the book again, found a seat in this room and sat down.

On the other side, Blake and George rushed to the room where Father Peter was lecturing, but found that there were no students in it, and the old priest who was over half a century old was sitting on a chair, looking like he was waiting for something.

"Huh?" Father Peter was a little surprised when he saw the two people pushing the door open, "Why are you two here? Where's Ellis?"

"Eh..." Without knowing what was going on, Black subconsciously replied, "He said he didn't want to come."

"You don't want to come?" Father Peter frowned, and closed the book in his hand, "Then why are you here?"

Black wanted to say something more, but George quickly pulled him back and replied, "We have some questions for you."

"How do you know I'm here?" Father Peter said in a cold voice, "I remember from the beginning that I said not to come to me in private unless I summoned him."

This rule is well known to prevent candidates from bribing priests.

Thinking of the consequences of violating the regulations, Black's face turned ashen, and he ignored George's hint and said, "Didn't you say that there will be a question-and-answer class tonight?"

"Where did I hear that?"

Blake was shocked all over, with a look of disbelief.

The scene at that time was like this -

Ellis was walking on the road with a book in his hands, and for the first time a particularly bright smile appeared on his usually calm face, as if something great and good had happened.

Blake couldn't see him looking like he was taking advantage of the sky, so he went up and touched his shoulder. After seeing Ellis staggered by him, he asked curiously: "Yo? Isn't this Ellis? What a great and good thing happened so happy, let’s share it with everyone.”

Ellis restrained his smile, took a step back calmly, but still said honestly: "Father Peter is willing to teach me some knowledge, I am naturally very happy."

Black and Charlie looked at each other. They had never heard of the course that Father Peter was going to teach. Could it be that Father Peter told him specifically?

The two couldn't help being a little jealous of the poor and white bookworm in front of him who could only see his face.

Fortunately, Ellis spoke first: "I think the priest won't mind everyone studying together. I guess there are many people who will go. We can go together tomorrow night."

But Black and Charlie knew that it was their turn to clean the mass venue tomorrow, and Alice's words sounded in their ears, as if mocking them for not being able to go.

The two agreed on the surface, but secretly decided in their hearts that they must teach Ellis a lesson.

"Why don't we just let him clean up for us? We said just help him with some problems."

"I've never seen him turn anyone down anyway..."

Recalling the scene at that time, Blake felt a little ironic that that pariah Ellis could fool him so much, and he jumped into the pit without knowing it.

Seeing Black's distorted complexion and his secret path, George hurriedly stepped forward and said, "We did hear about your lecture tonight from Alice, but..."

Father Peter got up slowly. He was the praying priest who was in charge of dealing with evil spirits. He was strong in stature and superb in fighting skills. He was extremely powerful in combat.

"So why doesn't Alice want to come?"

George watched the tall and strong priest walking towards him, cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he even felt a little unsteady in his breathing.

"Actually, he's not feeling well, so let's ask some questions."

George quickly pushed Blake, motioning him to quickly repeat the question Alice said.

But Bruce was angry and hated at this time, and was still immersed in the anger that Ellis dared to coax him. How could he remember the question that Ellis asked casually, and naturally he couldn't answer it for a long time.

Seeing the terrified expressions of the two evading each other, Father Peter gradually understood. He said with a heavy face, "I'll ask you one last time, why didn't Ellis come?"

Do they want them to say that they will throw their work to Ellis to do such a thing?

Not to mention being reprimanded by Father Peter, but their teacher——Father Mullen, once he heard the news, he might directly kick them out on the charge of "jealousy".

Embarrassment and fear passed between the two of them, Blake's eyes were flushed, and he began to think about how much money he had to spend to stay here.

Their family has been in business for generations, and it is extremely difficult to enter the political world, and becoming a great priest is the only shortcut, not to mention that he has persisted here, how could he let himself fall short.

Seeing Father Peter's frown getting tighter, George still compromised. His family background was not as good as Blake's, and he could only rely on himself.

"I'm sorry Father, we asked Ellis to help us clean the mass room that Father Mullen will use." George said guiltily, "I wanted to stay and help him clean it, but Black said he wanted to borrow me. I came to ask some questions about the book, so I had no choice but to... Ellis also agreed!"

Theological books of this era are extremely valuable, and the disciples only have the right to keep them but not own them. Therefore, when faced with the books they are responsible for, basically every disciple will stay close to each other. Therefore, George’s reason is not out of the ordinary.

Blake stared wide-eyed at the boy who was close to him on weekdays, and saw that he looked aggrieved and helpless, and blamed him for what he said, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while.

"Did Ellis agree?" Father Peter thought about Ellis' character, and felt that he could do it, but they obviously had an appointment...

He squinted and looked at the two young men with strong bodies and ruddy complexions in front of him, and thought of Ellis's small body that seemed to collapse in the wind, and felt that there was something tricky inside.

Blake finally swallowed the breath in his heart. He gave George a vicious look, and said to the priest, "It was indeed he himself who agreed. He asked me to help him with the terminology on page 250 and third of the book."

The knowledge mastered by each priest is different, and most of them will only learn from one or two priests. Only Ellis is favored by many priests, and he is allowed to learn various knowledge from each priest.

And Blake and George also take the courses of Father Peter on weekdays, but they are directly under Father Mullen, and they usually don't meet with other priests except during class time.

Father Peter thought for a while, and immediately understood what Ellis wanted to ask him - "temperance" and "rage".

"Those who strive for victory have temperance in all things. They seek only a perishable crown, but we seek an incorruptible crown."[1]

“He who is quick to anger acts foolishly, and he who devises deceits is hated.”[2]

Finally, Father Peter sighed, shook his head and said, "Iris... the boy...is still too soft-hearted."

"You two go back first."

Unexpectedly, they were easily let go by Father Peter. The two raised their heads in surprise, and the next moment they found that the door in front of them had been closed.

Now that he has escaped, it is time to settle other accounts.

Blake gave George a vicious look, and said, "I never thought that you would be so vicious and blame me for these things."

George looked innocent and apologetic: "I'm sorry for you, but instead of blaming me, you might as well think about why Ellis lied to us."

Speaking of this, Blake was really furious. As soon as he pulled the bag from George's hand, he strode towards the residence.

In the room, Father Peter sighed softly, and began to think about how to get Ellis from Mullen.

This child has clearly seen through the nature of his classmates, but he still treats them with a tolerant attitude...even hinting at himself in this way in order to keep them from being punished.

Thinking of all the unfair treatment that Ellis had suffered in life, and his always optimistic and peaceful attitude, Father Peter's heart became softer and softer.

"I didn't expect him to have read so much later chapters, it seems that next time I can teach him more knowledge." Father Peter picked up the book he was reading, and turned a few pages to the back, "But... the two chapters A bad embryo can’t really be counted like this.”

On the other side, Ellis stretched out after estimating that the time was almost up, and walked out of the room slowly with a book.

"Huh? Why are you here?" Alice had just closed the door when a voice suddenly came from behind.

"Good night, Father Mullen." Ellis slowly turned his head and saluted him.

Father Mullen is his direct teacher, because his main job is to remove disasters for people and baptize newborns. He is often away from the college and can't find anyone. Unexpectedly, he ran into him tonight.

"I remember asking Black and George to do the cleaning." Father Mullen had a good personality, but he was a bit obsessive-compulsive, and it would be more uncomfortable when the plan was disrupted.

Ellis hugged the book to his chest, with a peaceful expression on his face, "The two of them are going to attend Father Peter's class, so I'll help clean it up."

Although Father Mullen was a little dissatisfied with their temporary replacement, he didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Ellis stepped aside slightly to make it easier for the priest to enter, and followed behind him to half-close the door again.

"I'm just coming back to get some props for tomorrow. You should go back and rest early." Father Mullen looked at the clean and refreshing room and was very satisfied in his heart, and even his tone became much gentler.

Ellis hesitated for a moment, then said, "Father, I have a question for you..."

Seeing the priest turn his head, he lowered his head and rummaged through the book.

But before the book turned to that page, a voice suddenly came from afar.

"Alice—come out!" Black pushed open the door forcefully, the door hit the wall with a loud "boom" sound, and then bounced away again.

"Why did you—" The three words of killing me were still stuck in his throat, and Black stared at the person in front of him who shouldn't be here.

"Blake!" Father Mullen was taken aback and snapped, "Where did you learn all the etiquette?"

"I'm sorry..." Black's arrogance was extinguished in an instant, like a rooster who had lost a battle, with his yellow hair drooping weakly.

"It's just in time for you to come. I also want to ask why Alice did the cleaning task that was entrusted to you?" Father Mullen was not tall, and he was actually shorter than him when he stood in front of Black, but Black But directly want to shrink into the ground.

How is it possible, Father Mullen obviously won't be back until noon tomorrow, how can someone like him with such a demanding plan come back early?

Blake glanced at Ellis's invariable faint smile, was horrified, and understood everything in an instant.

This guy Ellis... is completely prepared.

He seemed to have fallen into a trap where he couldn't see the shape and couldn't figure out the bottom. He was trying hard to replenish the wine, but he fell into it step by step, and he couldn't see his fingers.

But now, he has nothing to struggle with, Black murmured: "George and I went to see Father Peter for a lecture..."

"I'll ask him tomorrow." Father Mullen picked up the bible on the table, turned his head and said, "Then can you explain, what is the purpose of barging in so angrily?"

It was only then that Blake remembered his distraught appearance just now, and his spine felt chills. Although he was usually impulsive, he also understood the etiquette of the academy. Except for targeting Ellis in private, he never did anything out of the ordinary.

Except today...

Impulsively, he didn't check the facts, so he went directly to Father Mullen, and even in front of the priest, he almost couldn't control his emotions.

At night, he kicked the door open as if he had no brains, for fear that others would not know his anger.

The more Blake thought about it, the more frightened he became. Alice's usual actions appeared in his mind, and it seemed to have deep meaning no matter how he looked at it. He suddenly remembered what George said to him - "I always feel that there is something wrong with him."

Something is wrong, this person is too wrong!

Alice's smile seemed to him as if the devil was waving at him, and Blake wanted to turn around and run away.

Father Mullen couldn't wait for an answer, so he looked intently and saw the sweat on Black's face dripping like water on the skirt of his clothes, as if he had been fished out of the water.

His face darkened, he took off the cross hanging on his chest and put it on Black's forehead, only to hear a "sizzling" sound, a scorched black mark appeared on his forehead, and he rolled his eyes and passed out.

"How could there be evil spirits coming in from the college!" Father Mullen gritted his molars, his whole face looked extremely ferocious, and he turned to look at Ellis.

"come over!"

Ellis walked towards him obediently and lowered his head.

A cold, sweat-stained cross was printed on his forehead, and Ellis just blinked slightly without any reaction.

Father Mullen's face was relaxed, and he said to him: "You take Black to the confinement room first, and I will talk about the rest when I come back tomorrow."

"Okay, Father." Ellis stopped asking the question he wanted to ask, but obediently helped Blake up, who was limp on the ground, regardless of the sweat on his body.

"Fortunately, Ellis was not polluted by evil spirits, otherwise we would have lost a good seedling." Watching Ellis slowly disappearing into the depths of the corridor, Father Mullen said to himself, "The world is too chaotic. ..."

Ellis, who threw Blake into the confinement room, wiped the wet marks on his forehead in disgust, turned and walked towards the room.

After a long time, after washing it again, he showed a harmless smile to himself in the mirror, his light brown eyes glowed slightly red, flashing away in the dim light.
