Chapter 49 first quarter

Reverend Mahon felt himself go limp.Like melted ghee, it is about to turn into a puddle of water.He looked around, and all the people were like him, and he couldn't help asking in his heart: Why is this?Did they eat unclean food, drink poisonous water, or pollute the air with miasma?No, Tibetan food is different from theirs, but it is impossible for them to be poisonous.They clearly saw the fish in the stream at the bottom of the stream, and the birds chirping in the trees.Fish and birds are fine, how can people be poisoned?And these flying insects in front of them, are they stronger than humans?

The dense flying insects chirped and landed on the skin from time to time, making the hands and face itchy and sometimes tingling.Pastor Mahon tried to raise his hand to drive away, but he couldn't.Sighing in frustration, the lips felt numb and it became difficult to breathe.He was afraid that if his mouth and nose were lost like his hands and feet, he would die.He breathed hard, trying to use the airflow to dispel the numbness in his mouth, but flying insects kept being sucked into his mouth, and it was impossible to spit it out.But he didn't stop breathing hard, which he felt was the only way he could stay alive.

There are more flying insects sucked into the mouth, just like eating something chewed by someone else, making me want to vomit with nausea.But he couldn't spit it out.Not only that, the stimulation of the flying insects also made the throat suddenly wriggle to swallow, a large group of flying insects slid down, and with a rumbling sound, the mouth seemed to be much refreshed.After that, he couldn't help swallowing a few mouthfuls continuously, which was the instinct of life.It is also God's will. I don't know how many flying insects I swallowed, and suddenly I found that my fingers were driving away the flying insects.Ah, it's up, the arms can be lifted up.

He tried to move his legs and waist again, and he felt it, and the more he moved, the more he felt it.A clear thought seized his consciousness at this moment: it was the bite of flying insects that made them lie on the ground.Now, the flying insects came to save them again.A few years ago, when he first arrived in India, he heard that a single bite of Indian red spiders can kill people, and the only way to detoxify them is to swallow two red spiders alive.It seems that the flying insect here is the same as the spider mite: it poisons you, and you can cure it by eating it.It's like when you face a strange belief, it must be intrusive and harmful to you at first, but if you eat it, you will find that it is beneficial to you.

Pastor Mahon opened his mouth wide, inhaled suddenly, and sucked several flying insects directly into his throat. He struggled to sit up, looked at the guard soldiers beside him, and said in a low voice at first, but gradually his voice became louder: "Listen to me, open your mouth, inhale, like me, open your mouth, inhale." He demonstrated how to open his mouth and inhale He looked angry and asked, "How do you feel? Did flying insects enter your mouth? Those who sucked in flying insects swallowed, and those who did not suck flying insects continued to suck. Listen, we are poisoned, and flying insects are God. The antidote has been sent. Look at me, God's flying insects have done a miracle, and I'm better, almost as I was before."

As the flying insects were continuously sucked into their mouths and swallowed into their stomachs, the soldiers of the guards were gradually able to move their arms and legs. Pastor Mahon stood up, walked up to Xiama Ruben and his party, and said loudly: "God will come to save you, please believe me, God is here." Then, he taught the Tibetans lying on the ground to open their mouths and inhale . Tibetans stop smoking after a few puffs.They didn't want to suck the flying insects into their mouths, let alone swallow the flying insects according to the instructions of Pastor Mahon. That's killing, which is the same as eating people, and it's an act of the devil.

Pastor Mahon yelled anxiously, and the more he yelled, the more ineffective he became. Finally he gasped in despair and said, "Don't you want to live? God's providence has come, and you don't have the right to die." Xiama Ruben had a blank expression.Looking at him beggingly with the eyes of a dying man, it seems to say: Pastor, besides eating flying insects, is there any other way? Pastor Ma Weng understood it right away, scratched his head and said, "No, no." But he thought in his heart: God must have other ways, because this is Tibet.But with or without.He had to keep the flying insects from biting the Tibetans, and suddenly he was taken aback, realizing that maybe this was God's revelation: as long as the flying insects are prevented, the Tibetans themselves will get better.He prayed aloud: "God. I know you are over our heads. Know you will bless these Tibetans. Ah, I see, I see, that's what you mean."

Xiama Ruben listened and felt that God had nothing to do with him.He closed his eyes in despair.He died, many Tibetans died, no heartbeat, no breath. Pastor Ma Weng was not reconciled. Seeing that several guard soldiers had stood up, he said, "You are a blessing to the Tibetans. Come with me." He led the guard soldiers to mow a lot of wormwood and branches, Four piles were piled up around the Tibetans, east, west, north, south, and then lit.The grass and branches were all green and smoky without fire, which was exactly what Pastor Mahon needed.The smoke filled the air, and the flying insects fled away one after another.

Apparently, eating flying insects and fumigation flying insects with thick smoke are two effects. The former relies on external force to fight the poison with poison, while the latter relies on the human's own potential to recover gradually under the premise of preventing the invasion of new poison.The Tibetans were not able to move after lying down until the next morning.During this period, Priest Mahon and the soldiers of the guards continued to add firewood, the smoke was uninterrupted, and his prayers were uninterrupted.In order to let the Tibetans know what he was praying, he kept saying in Tibetan: "God, God, dear God, you are the combination of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, so you are omnipresent and omnipotent. You It is God, the savior of the world, the warrior who drives away the devil, the doctor who heals the sick, and the shepherd who protects the lamb..."

With tears in his eyes, Xia Ma Ruben said over and over again: "I'm not going to die, I'm really not going to die." He later said that after his death, his soul left his body very quickly, and when he was lingering, a man with a melancholy expression appeared up.Tell him: "I am the Heavenly Father whom you call God. I have come to save you, go back to your body, you will not die, and you will follow Pastor Mahon to the end." Then he lived again coming. According to the "Holy History", all Tibetans who died in the flying insect incident saw God after death.It is God who keeps them alive, because God is a person who talks about karma.God said: "Because you respect me and listen to my words, all the sins of your past and present lives are gone. You will live until the day you are willing to enter the kingdom of heaven. Remember, I will guarantee that you will reach the kingdom of heaven in this life. Because My heaven is as infinite as time and as vast as the universe. Even if all the people on the earth live in it, it seems that only I live in it-a common carrier of God and Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. I am still lonely and I need More partners, come all of you. But the Buddhist heaven is too crowded, and the Buddhas with many names can’t live there, and they have to go down to the world to be living Buddhas. Where will you be welcome? So I will let you live forever Reincarnation in another life, endless reincarnation. People who don’t want to reincarnate, come with me, if you believe in me in this life, I will guarantee that you will be free from suffering forever.”

They started on the road again.Relying on Pastor Mahon's "Picture of Good and Bad, Good and Evil", we will go east for a while and go north for a while.He stopped suddenly, staring dumbfounded at a half-dead person lying in the grass. Pastor Mahon said, "God, where did this guy come from?" Xiama Ruben shouted, "Anai Jiaben, why are you here?" Anais and his men got lost.Maybe they thought they could get out of the forest, or maybe they were just curious, so they walked into the cave.But when he walked in, he couldn't get out, only Anai Jiaben climbed out alone.Anai Jiaben pointed to the cave not far behind him.He crooked his body and passed out. Xiama ran to the cave, ran into the entrance of the cave and came out after only a few steps.He shook his head, looking pale.Pastor Mahon asked him what he saw.He murmured: "I didn't see anything, but I saw the dark hell." Pastor Mahon looked up at the cave, his expression became more and more determined, and the blue light in his eyes was like a floating flame.He walked forward.People thought he was going to visit the entrance of the cave, but they didn't expect him to go all the way in, and his guards couldn't stop him. Half an hour later, Pastor Mahon came out with a Tibetan on his back.He put it on the ground, walked in again, and carried out another person.When he entered the cave for the third time, he lifted the front of the underworld robe to cover his nose and mouth.His guards also took off their clothes, wrapped them around their noses and mouths, and followed in.They recited all the subordinates of Anai Jiaben from the cave.Almost half are alive and half are dead. Pastor Mahon prayed for God's blessing as usual, and asked for water, took some white pills from the cross cloth pocket on the horse's buttocks, and fed them one by one into the mouths of those who were still panting.Although the pastor knew that fresh air was more important than anything else to these miasma-stricken people, he still wanted to prove the importance of his existence.Xiama Ruben and his people looked at Pastor Maun superstitiously, thinking that this was God's healing, and God's healing was always effective. A day later, Anais Jiaben and the dozen or so subordinates who were still alive woke up one after another. Anai Jiaben said: "Buddha, I am still alive." Xiama Ruben looked at Pastor Mahon and said honestly, "It is God who saved you."
