Chapter 65 Choice
Joan of Arc, a figure who entered the end of the Hundred Years' War in the 14th century, England and France.
Nicknamed "The Girl of Orleans", he is a French military strategist, a saint bishop and saint, and is regarded as a national hero by the French.
During the Hundred Years' War, she led the French army to fight the invasion of the English-German army, and was finally arrested and executed.
Joan of Arc was originally a rural girl from France. She claimed that one day when she was thirteen, she met the angel "Gabriel" under a big tree behind the village.
This led to the "revelation of the Holy Lord" and asked her to lead troops to recover the lost territory of the French country occupied by the Englishmen at that time.
Later, she had several turns and obtained military power. In the same year, she lifted the siege of Orleans and became a famous French heroine. Later, she led her troops to defeat the invaders of Yingji many times.
It also prompted Charles VII, who had the right to inherit the throne, to be crowned in July of the same year.
However, Joan of Arc was captured by the Principal of Burgundy in a small conflict in Compiène in 1430.
French soldiers captured by the Burgundians at that time could be released through money ransom, but the French king Charles VII did not do that.
In addition to the soldiers and some noble women following Joan of Arc!
Some French noble men even believed that Joan of Arc's role was no longer very important.
So Joan of Arc soon bought it for a large sum of money by the Englishmen.
The Inquisition under the control of the English authorities was sentenced to stolen for heresy and witch crimes and was executed in public in France Rouen.
When the English-Jiang's army was completely expelled from France 20 years after Joan of Arc's death, Joan of Arc's elderly mother persuaded the then Saint Pope to retrieve the case of Joan of Arc.
As a believer in the Holy Bishop, Joan of Arc and the hero in the eyes of the French people, the Holy Bishop did not make any private claims, but instead handed them over to the supreme ruler of the Holy See.
The Pope then re-examined the trial.
Finally, with the Pope's personal decision, she was rehabilitated in the mid-14th century.
He was also sanctified by the Kingdom of Gene during the 19th period. The Pope who agreed to sanctify Joan of Arc was Sulfiln's grandfather.
Van Helsing, who had lived in France for a long time, naturally remembered the story of Joan of Arc.
It is rumored that Joan of Arc asked a question to the other party when he first met the holy seraph "Gabriel" and hoped to get an answer from Gabriel.
"The Lord's love will not be stingy with French and English. When the Lord asks me to conquer the lost land, I will only drive away the English and English troops, and will not kill them all.
But in this case, I will inevitably go to the battlefield, rather than hiding behind the scenes of the nobles as a planner.
The Holy Lord gave me a mission, but did not give me the rigid requirement of killing people. Yingji also believed in the light of the Holy Lord. On the battlefield, I would definitely fight against those who hold weapons in my hands for self-protection.
But when I win, how should I deal with the captives of the Yingji soldiers?"
Gabriel was stunned for a moment. He took out a French flower "Veani" printed on both sides and handed it to Joan of Arc.
"This coin can be regarded as a choice for the Holy Lord. If you throw this coin when you hesitate, it means forgiveness and relief."
At that time, Joan of Arc held the golden coin in his hand and found that both sides were vetiver iris. When he wanted to ask Gabriel why there was no pattern on the back, the other party had disappeared and returned to heaven.
From then on, when Joan of Arc encountered the English soldiers whom he wanted to deal with, he would let the coins in his hand make a choice, and would forgive the other party directly.
He also handed the coin to the captured soldier and let the other party throw it out in person. If the front is the one who lives, the back is the one who dies.
The rescued soldiers were grateful to Joan of Arc.
They even gave up their loyalty to their country and followed Joan of Arc's personal charm.
Some people firmly believe that Joan of Arc's coin is a holy object personally rewarded by the Holy Lord.
And helped Joan of Arc avoid the crisis of multiple deaths.
For example, an arrow penetrated the body and a huge throw hit the leg.
There is nothing to do if you can jump from a seventy-foot high and you can jump around.
It was not until Joan of Arc was about to be executed that the Inghis man took the coin from Joan of Arc.
Having this coin represents a chance to save your life. When you throw this coin, it will always be positive, so there will always be a chance to be saved.
No matter how terrible the wound is, it will heal, and no matter how desperate the crisis may be, it may be reversed, but the gift of the Holy Lord is not without conditions.
You need to come up with a worthwhile exchange.
Just like those captured Ingie soldiers, after throwing this coin, they could survive, but lost their loyalty to the country. This loyalty was transplanted to Joan of Arc, who gave them a chance to survive, so the soldiers of Ingie would follow Joan of Arc.
Even those French soldiers were included.
When Joan of Arc used it herself, the power of the Holy Lord was saved by her life, so she had to give her something to the Holy Lord.
‘Love’ is the first choice!
It must be worthy of life. Feelings are the only existence that can equal the value of life...
Van Helsing put the coin in Suya's hand, and Van Helsing knelt on one knee and prayed:
"The Father of Heaven,
I ask for your forgiveness.
I am a sinner and need your forgiveness;
I believe that the Spirit of the Son died for me and that I was subject to the punishment I deserved for sin,
I am willing to leave sin;
Now please enter into my soul and life and be my Savior;
I am willing to rely on your help, follow you and obey you all my life;
Pray in the name of the Lord's Holy Son Meda.
Amon!"
Van Helsing looked at the haggard Su Ya on the hospital bed and whispered, "Save her and forgive your messenger."
Su Ya's hand did not move at all, but the coin automatically bounced up.
Rising in mid-air, then spinning and falling.
When it lands again on the back of Su Ya's hand, the 'vetiver Iris' always represents the pattern on the front facing upwards.
The coin re-worked, and the originally weak and unrhythmic heartbeat began to become strong and rhythmic.
Van Helsing was surprised to see Su Ya's eyelids moving gently, as if she was about to open it.
*******
At this time in France.
It is eight o'clock in the morning.
The Champagne area is located less than 200 kilometers east of Paris. It is one of the three most famous French wine producing areas.
Many well-known wine brands come from here.
And at the two regions of Ardennes and Lorraine, the junction of Champagne, is the hometown of Joan of Arc.
She was born here.
This place is deeply influenced by religion, and there is a deserted religious site in the mountainous and forested area south.
The residents of this neighborhood moved away from the place to live and develop better, and they built better churches in the new town.
This place built in the mountains and forests was abandoned by desolation.
It has been more than a century since few people visited here.
At this time, two young people sneaked into the place.
"Are you sure we are going to do this? Steal the church's stuff!"
"This place has been abandoned by the church for a long time. Don't be psychologically burdened. Moreover, we are not stealing, but are worried that the government's people will not search carefully, and maybe there are any omissions, so let's take a look!"
“The tools we carry are like thieves.”
Two young men were carrying folding and a canvas backpack with various portable tools inside.
