Chapter 106

The town of Lude is a town located in the southern part of the Pyrenees.

This sparsely populated town has a reputation in Europe that is completely inconsistent with its size!

This is a famous Catholic worship holy place throughout Europe.

Originally, this town was just a ruined town in the southern part of the Pyrenees, but in 1858, everything changed! At that time, a girl in the town was said to have seen the appearance of the Virgin Mary in the town, and... it is said to have been eighteen times!

In that year, this incident caused a sensation in Europe and even alarmed the Holy See. The Pope also sent people to this town for investigation... Of course, the investigation process is unknown. But the result is a bit surprising...

The church declared the incident "true"! At the same time, it declared the town of Lude as a "holy land"! And the town girl who was said to have had "close contact" with the Virgin Mary was awarded the title of "saint" by the church after her death.

The town of Lude became famous and became a famous pilgrimage site for Catholics throughout Europe.

What’s even more amazing is that it is said that in a cave next to Lude Town, there is a pool. The water in that pool is said to be the legendary "holy water" and can cure many diseases...

Because of these legends, as many as hundreds of thousands of Catholics come to the town of Lude every year to pilgrimage...

In the evening, when Xiao Lei and his group drove into this small town at the foot of the mountain in dusk, the whole town was immersed in tranquility.

There were many cars parked outside the town, and there were obviously many people here. But Xiao Lei saw that many pedestrians passing outside the town had serious faces and sacred and solemn expressions. They were dressed formally and with a pious face, walking quietly on the streets, and no one made a loud noise. Some people simply wore black church robes with crosses hanging on their chests.

The tallest building in the entire town is a church located in the center of the town.

"I don't like this place." After getting off the car, Xiao Lei curled his lips. Yueshan nodded: "It's too quiet, a little depressing... How can I say it can be, it's like a temple in the mountains."

Ye Buqun didn't say anything this time, because when he arrived here, his expression became serious... To be honest, Ye Buqun's appearance at this moment almost became like those who walked quietly on the street. Serious, quiet, solemn, solemn...

"It seems that this gentleman is a devout believer." Longyan spoke, he took off his bag from the back of the car and walked beside Xiao Lei.

"Are you not a Catholic?" Xiao Lei asked.

"You are a typical Eastern thinking." Longyan answered in a humble and arrogant manner: "It seems that many Chinese people believe in God, but it is not like this. At least I don't believe in religion." He sighed: "The things I do often need to wander on the edge of life and death, so everything makes me believe that my destiny is in my own hands."

Xiao Lei narrowed his eyes: "It seems that you must be very familiar with the Pyrenees."

"Very familiar." Longyan suddenly smiled and said: "I have climbed the highest peak three times and are a member of our club in the top three. I have participated in twelve mountaineering activities. My safety record has not been broken until now."

Xiao Lei stared at his eyes for a while, and saw the pride of a mountain adventurer in his eyes... It was obvious that Longan was very proud of his record. To be fair, based on his record, he was indeed a master.

I can only say that his reaction was the most normal reaction... But a trace of doubt flashed in Xiao Lei's eyes...

"You chose to go up the mountain this season, which is actually very dangerous. Many people are unwilling to take on your business, but I am not afraid... Although the climate is not good now, I have experienced more dangerous things, and I believe in myself." Longyan smiled proudly, and then he changed the topic and pointed to both sides of the road in the town: "There are two hotels here, one is large and belongs to the church. But they only receive church staff. The other one is ordinary tourists. Now my only hope is that they are not full. Otherwise, we just need to set up tents in the square of the town."

Unfortunately, Longyan's words became a reality.

The only hotel in the town that entertains ordinary tourists was full. A few people could only go to the town square to build tents.

Yueshan is a martial arts practitioner, and it doesn’t matter if she endures hardships. Qing Lingzi is a person outside the world and does not value physical enjoyment very much. Baoer is a childish person. She looks excited and expectant about sleeping in the open air.

"Hey, Ye Buqun, aren't you a senior member of the church? Can't you go to the back door to the church to ask us for two rooms?"

Xiao Lei smiled bitterly, and said as he looked at the square of the town.

It seems that the popularity of this small town of Lude is not very high. The small square is full of tents, and it seems that there are many people camping here in the open air at night.

"I'm sorry, I can't use my authority to do these things." Ye Buqun looked solemn: "This is the holy land. What you said is a despicable thing to the holy land! I can't force others to give us their houses because of my position." Ye Buqun pointed to the square of the town, where many people wearing church clergy costumes set up tents. It's obvious that even the church hotels were full, and many priests were forced to sleep in the square.

Xiao Lei shook his head: "I really don't know if you should respect you or laugh at you as stupid as you."

The tent was pierced from longans. It was obvious that his movements were quite skillful, and he was obviously a person who was very experienced in outdoor survival.

"It will be a little cold at night. After all, it is a mountainous area, and the season is a bit wet now." Longan took out a windproof lighter, took out a small mountaineering stove, and lit a simple bonfire. There was also a small metal pot, which seemed to be preparing dinner.

Xiao Lei kept secretly observing Longyan's every move, but from Longyan's actions, he really had the style of an experienced mountain adventurer. Xiao Lei's eyes showed a trace of doubt again.

It was indeed a bit cold at night. There was a blanket in the car. Xiao Lei had taken it out and wrapped it around Baoer. There were five tents in total, one of Xiao Lei, and one of the shiny cotyledons of Yebuqun Yueshan Longyan. Baoer slept in Yueshan tent.

Xiao Lei slept in the tent, and he was extremely sensitive. In fact, he was in this place at night. Or, as soon as he entered this small town that was called a "holy land", Xiao Lei always felt a strange feeling in his heart, and there seemed to be a faint expectation in his heart...

It was as if he sensed something would happen in the dark.

After closing his eyes and reciting a few words of meditation, Xiao Lei slowly entered sleep...

...

…………

dark……

There were hundreds of tents in the square, and the breathing of hundreds of people all fell into Xiao Lei's ears. It was a very wonderful feeling. Xiao Lei only felt that his mind wandered around and gradually gathered together, just like in his dreams, his soul wandering outside his body...

In the dark, it seemed as if there was a silent summon here...

Yes, it's a summon!

Those vague shouts resounded in my heart... I could clearly feel some strange, silent call in my heart, but I could not hear any sound in my ears.

Probably, it's a dream...

Xiao Lei was confused and felt that he was drifting over the town, looking down at the town from above, seeing the lights, and then floating towards the left side of the town...

Gradually, when his divine sense fell on the ground again, there was a statue in front of him...

In the dream, the scene he "sees" was a little blurry, but he could barely recognize some of it. This is a statue of a woman. She was wearing a robe of some ancient style, with barefoots, her arms were wrapped around her chest, her eyes were slightly closed, and her face showed a pious expression. She had a bright face and a pretty face. Obviously, the sculptor's skill was extraordinary, and she sculpted a girl's statue so vividly.

There seemed to be a strange traction force on the statue attracting Xiao Lei, and a trace of his soul seemed to surround the statue and was deeply sucked in.

Deep in the heart, you can feel that the statue seems to be summoning yourself...

This is a wonderful feeling. Xiao Lei has been transformed. His spiritual sense is far more keen than ordinary people, and he is even much stronger than ordinary practitioners. He can obviously feel that the statue has a very comfortable breath... Yes, that breath makes his keen spiritual sense feel very comfortable.

It seemed that he could hear a faint sigh, which sounded deep in his heart.

Suddenly, a trace of disorder occurred in his mind, and Xiao Lei felt his whole body tightening and woke up from his dream.

He opened his eyes and was still lying in the tent. He suddenly turned over and sat up, pulled open the tent and walked out.

Taking a deep breath of the cool air at night, Xiao Lei stretched and turned around.

I saw that Longan had slowly walked to a distance not far behind him.

"Your steps are so light." Xiao Lei said with a smile.

"You should be said to be very keen." Longyan smiled kindly: "My profession is to take risks, so our movements and bodies are much lighter than ordinary people."

Xiao Lei closed his mouth, glanced at Longyan, thought for a while before saying, "Why don't you sleep?"

Longyan smiled slightly: "I can't sleep." He took out a cigarette, lit it for himself, and glanced at Xiao Lei: "Or?"

"No, thank you." Xiao Lei smiled and said, "You can't sleep either. Now you should have to ensure sleep so that you can have the energy to climb the mountain, right?"

Longan took a sip of cigarettes and slowly vomited them out, and said carelessly: "My tent is a little small."

A strange look flashed in Xiao Lei's eyes, and he pretended to be careless and asked: "Tent? It seems that I heard that the tents of mountaineering experts like you have been customized, right?"

Longan was calm and smiled faintly: "It seems that you are particularly interested in my profession... Well... because your itinerary is too urgent, and it usually takes at least half a month to climb a mountaineering. But you only gave me one day, and I prepared it in a hurry. This time I brought not my own tent. My own tent was damaged during the last trip. I brought not my own tent, but borrowed someone else's... Can my answer satisfy you?"

Xiao Lei smiled slightly: "Sorry, I have no malice."

Longyan shrugged her shoulders, took another breath of cigarette, threw it on the ground, and suddenly said, "Are you interested in walking? You can't sleep anyway."

Xiao Lei nodded and suddenly said, "Is there any statue here...is there any statue here?"

"Status?" Longyan thought for a while and said, "There are many. There are many statues here... You know, this is a famous holy land in Europe. For more than a hundred years, many famous figures have visited here, as well as many famous figures in the church. At least I know that in the past hundred years, several practitioners who have received the title of "saints" in the church have been here. There are many statues of famous figures here... Just to the left of the town... Are you interested in the statue?"

"Well...yes... are there any female statues here? I mean female..." Xiao Lei hesitated and asked.

"Female?" Longyan smiled: "Some, of course some. The person who discovered the appearance of Virgin Mary here was a girl from a small town, and that girl was later awarded the title of "saint". Of course, there are her statues in the town... In addition, there are statues of Virgin Mary here... Many. If you are interested, it's okay now, I'll take you to see them."

Xiao Lei smiled and said, "Okay, thank you."

"You've spent money, I'm obliged to serve you, and I can't sleep anyway." Longyan smiled: "Go to my tent first. I need to get a flashlight, otherwise, be careful that our noses hit the statue."

Xiao Lei laughed and followed Longan quietly.

While Longan was bent over and looked for the flashlight, Xiao Lei quickly lowered his body and searched around Longan's tent.

His eyes suddenly lit up!

I saw that on the corner of the tent, there were two English handwritings tattooed on it!

Xiao Lei saw the two English words very clearly, and he could see the meaning of these two words at a glance!

The above clearly states "Longyan"!!

When Longan bent over and came out, Xiao Lei had already stood up straight.

"Let's go, but be gentle. There are people watching the night in the town. They have a weird temper and don't like tourists walking back and forth at night." Longyan smiled happily.

The two left the square one after another and walked towards the left of the town.

"Longyan, you said your tent was damaged on the last trip? I guess that trip must be very dangerous, right? Are you willing to talk to me? I am very interested in your profession." Xiao Lei followed Longyan and smiled carelessly.

"Well... there is nothing to say, it was just a accidental damage." Longyan replied casually, his tone calmly: "It is not good to damage, it needs to be repaired. Fortunately, I came out with you this time and picked up someone else's tent... But the side effect is that you can't sleep in someone else's tent, so you have to come out to talk to you, because among you, you only look kinder."

Xiao Lei laughed and mocked: "Well... is that...I'm kind?... Maybe... you came to me because I looked like I was not old last year. Do you think that I am young may be easier to fool and deceive, right?"

"Hmm?" Longan's back suddenly froze.

Xiao Lei's body was already stuck like a ghost, and one hand had already been buckled against Longan's throat from behind, and said coldly: "Don't move, don't shout, otherwise I will break your neck!"-
