    The grand celebration finally began, and all the people in the city gathered together in a lively and joyful atmosphere. People came from all directions, making every street crowded.  Jesus and his disciples also left the village and went to the city of Shelhan. He did not hold the stick in his hand. On the night when he met the two angels, he had already returned the staff to Moses.  Need that artifact again.

    The disciples said: "Dear guide, there are many people in the city of Sheleng who are looking forward to your arrival. Everyone will come to greet you. In order to see you in the crowded crowd, you should not walk."

    Jesus thought for a moment and nodded and said, "Go to the village ahead and borrow a donkey for me. Tell the owner that Jesus will use it and will return it soon."

    Elijah and Moses were originally leading the way, but they were persuaded to leave by Jesus, but Metanzo and Link were still following behind.  Although Jesus discouraged their actions, he did not order them to leave.

    At this moment, Link suddenly said: "There seems to be a legend in the Cold Plains. When the Messiah arrives, he does not gallop on a war horse, but rides a docile donkey."

    Medanzuo was stunned: "Is this legend really true? That would be easy! I will become that donkey."

    Link: ¡°Didn¡¯t Am¨¦ng ask us not to interfere with Jesus¡¯ affairs on earth?¡±

    Metazos shook his head and said: "This doesn't mean interfering. We didn't do anything else. Anyway, Jesus has ordered his disciples to find the donkey. Go quickly and let them find it!"

    The two angels quickly walked around to the village ahead. Metanzo turned into a donkey, and Link turned into the donkey's owner and stood at the intersection holding the donkey.  There are several donkeys in this village, but the one transformed by Metanzo is the most conspicuous.  The disciples came to borrow the donkey as Jesus asked, and Link gave it to them happily.

    When people heard about the arrival of Jesus, the Son of God, they rushed out of the city to welcome Jesus. The huge crowd cheered and shouted the name of the Son of God, and some people even knelt down on both sides of the road to salute.  The people in front took off their robes and spread them on the road, while others broke off twigs with leaves and spread them on the ground.  Let Jesus pass through, riding on a donkey.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????"Messiah, our savior. He has arrived!" The huge crowd slowly advanced, and the Holy Son rode a donkey into the city of Saleng.

    When the elders in the temple at the Aro River heard that Jesus had arrived, they gathered together to plot a plan to get rid of him.  An elder said: "There are too many people now and it is difficult to attack. There are many people who believe that Jesus is the Son of God. If we arrest him in public, we are afraid that there will be a civil uprising, and it will be easy for him to escape and escape. In that case, he will be passive."

    Another elder said: "We can wait until the last night of the celebration, when the crowds from all over the place have dispersed."

    The elder said before: "It's best to wait until he's alone before catching him. He has many followers, so we'd better buy an informant."

    Another elder nodded in agreement: "This should be done! What's more important is how to judge him. We must make people believe that he is a liar and pretending to be God's guidance! If that is the case, the people who follow him will turn to hate him.  .¡±

    At this time, another elder spoke: "Don't worry about judging him. If he claims to be a savior but can't even save himself, that proves everything! But in these seven days, we have to endure him at the temple gate.  Do you want to preach to the people in front of me? No, I have to go find him. Don¡¯t forget, there is also the governor of the Maro Empire here. What will the Maro people think of Jesus, who claims to be the Messiah?¡±

    Jesus finally came to the Temple of Arrow. This temple was first built in the era of David and Solomon. It has been repaired many times over hundreds of years and has become more and more magnificent.  It is far away from all the buildings, on a high ground in the city, and in front of it is a very large [square].  This is also a place where people gather. As long as there are many people, there will be opportunities to make money. Naturally, small businessmen and hawkers will not miss it, not to mention those cool people who are particularly good at doing business?

    The disciples were a little shocked by what they saw. There were many mobile vendors carrying packages,

    Carrying baskets and pushing trolleys, people shouted and hawked among the crowd.  These are secondary. Some people get permission from the temple priests, or the temple priests cooperate with others, and set up sheds in a circle in the temple square to sell various birds, and persuade pilgrims to buy them and release them.  As a sacrifice to the gods.

    Birds were flying around in the square.  Feathers and bird droppings were sprinkled from time to time.  The captured birds were frightened and were dying in cages: many of the birds that were bought to be released fell tiredly in the woods not far away, and some people caught them back and sold them again.

    Jesus came to the square and closed his eyes. He heard the whine of various birds, his expression was solemn and vaguely angry.  Seeing him like this, the followers realized that the Holy Son might have something to say, so they stood aside quietly.Wait.  Sure enough, Jesus opened his eyes and said, "You who truly follow me, tear down the stalls selling birds and let all the birds fly outside the city."

    Jesus never gave any orders to his followers or forced them to do anything for him. Today was the first time.  Everyone heard the words of the Holy Son clearly. People crowded up and knocked down the stalls, took all the cages, and sent the panicked and devastated birds to the city wall to let them fly.

    After the chaos, the square became clean again.

    Some people were shocked by Jesus¡¯ actions. By doing this, he was offending the priests in the temple. To build a shed here to sell birds sacrificed to the Arrow River, one must obtain permission from the priests.  The so-called "permission" is given to the priests, but in fact many stalls are opened by the priests themselves, which is a way to make money during the celebrations.

    A priest came out of the crowd and asked Jesus: "Who are you? How can you do this! The birds sold in these stalls are for people to let fly. Pilgrims buy those birds and let them fly as a sign of peace."  Sacrifice to God: The bird gains freedom, which also symbolizes God¡¯s salvation.

    You are blaspheming the glory of God by encouraging people to tear down stalls!  "

    Jesus scolded him unceremoniously: "If they are domestic chickens, do we need to let them fly? Those are birds caught from the wild by the stall owners. I don't know how many innocent people were killed and injured in the trap. They were kept flat and full in the cage."  They were tortured, let fly in the square and received various frights. When they flew into the forest, they would be captured by the stall owners.

    "Some people do this because they are just coveting the money in the pilgrims' pockets, but they use it to offer sacrifices to God.

    ????? Quotes that show God¡¯s mercy.  God does not enjoy all this, the money just falls into the pockets of the greedy.  Don't think that people here don't know that the stalls selling birds are all related to the priests in the temple, otherwise it would not be possible to set up in the square of the temple.

    Their behavior with you is blaspheming the glory of God!  If you think that releasing those caged birds is a sacrifice to God and a display of His glorious mercy, why are they kept in cages and sold?  You should let those birds go, shouldn't you?  "

    There was a burst of cheers from the crowd. The priest's face turned red and his whole body was shaking with anger, but he didn't know how to retort.  In fact, many people know that many of the stalls selling birds are opened by priests. Even if they are not opened by priests, the priests still receive the benefits.  However, it was clear that Jesus made this fact clear in public, which was tantamount to offending all the priests who were profiting from this - how brave he was!

    Who on earth has the courage to do this in the Temple Square?  He is defying the most powerful person in the land!  The priest was also very puzzled. At this time, someone shouted: "Priest, you can see clearly, this is Jesus, the Son of God!"

    When the priest heard the name, he shuddered for no reason, and walked away dejectedly into the crowd.  The people cheered, shouted the name of Jesus, and gathered around the Son.  Jesus stretched out his arms to signal everyone to be quiet, and then preached to everyone in the temple square.

    He doesn¡¯t know how many times he has preached in various places, but today¡¯s audience is the largest.  His voice was so rich and sweet that everyone in such a large square could hear it clearly.  Although he was wearing ordinary robes, he seemed to be shrouded in a layer of divine radiance. Followers firmly believed in his identity and felt solemn and sacred no matter how they looked at him. His description, which was the same as that of a mortal, invisibly added a simple sense of mystery.

    After the sermon was finished, Jesus led the people in a prayer ceremony.  When night falls, the city of Seleng is still busy and crowded. Pilgrims from all over the world can't find a place to stay, so they rest on the roadside or in open spaces.  Jesus took his disciples out of the city and returned to the village in the countryside of Bethany, and then entered the city of Zelen the next day.

    The next day, when Yosu continued to preach in the square of the temple, the crowd suddenly parted and a middle-aged man wearing a white robe and holding a luxurious staff came forward.  Many people here know him. This man is one of the twelve elders of the Aluo River Temple in Saleng City. It is said that he is also a great magician.

    People bowed to the elder one after another, which has been their habit for many years.  The elder nodded frequently to the people with a humble expression, walked up to Jesus, and said calmly: "Joshua, I heard that you claimed to be the Messiah in Elijah's prophecy, and yesterday you incited the people to demolish it."  All the stalls selling birds in the square?¡±

    Jesus answered calmly: "Elder, if you call me that, I will not deny it.

    As for why those stalls were demolished, you should know the reasons better than me. Do you want to ask questions here?  "

    The elder shook his head repeatedly and said: "No, no, no, I don't want to accuse that. You have your own reasons for doing that, and it will make it easier for you.?Winning the hearts and minds of the people.  However, those stalls were set up in the temple square with the permission of the Maro people. They also had to pay taxes to the Maro people when they sold birds.  I'm here to ask you a question: Should the people of Seleng pay taxes to the Maro people?  People bought those birds and let them fly as sacrifices to Aroho!

    He who claims to be the Messiah, can you answer this question?  "!.
