Chapter 1273: The Seven Deadly Sins of [Arrogance]

The poet nodded and said: "I think so too. The seven deadly sins generally mentioned are all derived from Dante. Since the virtual world has borrowed from various art forms of the entire human being, then this purgatory is likely to be the same. Constructed according to Dante's words."

As he said that, the poet seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly turned his head to look at Dante, a top American expert, and said with a smile, "I'm not talking about you! I'm talking about Dante, the famous poet in Italian history."

"I know!" Dante nodded, and took over the topic of poets, "I like Dante's poems very much, so I named them after him. I also know what you just said, according to the , the seven deadly sins are arrogance, jealousy, rage, laziness, greed, gluttony, and adultery. However, the form of atonement for 'arrogance' in the book is that the soul carries a heavy boulder, bends over, and circles along the mountain path of Purgatory Mountain But we are different here, there are no mountain roads in this city, and these souls are not carrying any boulders."

The poet thought for a while, and said: "The way of redemption in China corresponds to sin. Take arrogance as an example. Arrogant people are proud and conceited, their hearts are arrogant, their heads are held high, and they are defiant. Go up the huge boulder, bend over, and walk in a low voice. Since our current city is used to atone for the sin of arrogance, it is very likely that the atonement is also carried out according to this concept. We only need to observe these souls and act accordingly , may be able to solve the mystery."

After listening to the analysis of the poet and Dante, everyone suddenly felt reasonable. They returned to the street outside and stood in the middle of the street, watching the souls coming and going again, thinking about the deep meaning of their behavior.

Those souls still walked quietly, passing through their flesh and blood one by one, and gradually going away, like puppets one by one, never stopping, never getting tired.

"Do you feel that we are standing here, as if...how should I put it? It seems very discordant." At this time, Tiandao suddenly touched his chin and said something.

"Of course it's not harmonious. We are flesh and blood, living people, and they are souls, dead people. If we stand with them, can we be in harmony?" Thor shook his head and smiled, and reached out to pat the one with The woman's ass he passed through, his palm pierced through the ass, without bringing the slightest touch.

"I don't mean this aspect!" Tiandao shook his head, but it seemed that he himself couldn't describe the feeling in his heart clearly, so he could only murmur: "I mean something else, it just feels that there is something wrong and not harmonious. We are walking in a normal street, it shouldn't be like this, but I can't say where exactly."

"I feel this way too!" Suddenly, Huang Yi also nodded, walked back to the door of the previous church, and said, "Come here, all of you, stand here, and carefully observe these people on the street."

After hearing his words, everyone left the street one after another, returned to the door of the church, and observed the souls coming and going on the street outside.

After observing for a while, Huang Yi stared quietly at the souls on the street, and said, "Did you feel that as soon as we evacuated this street, these souls walked on the street by themselves, and suddenly became more harmonious?"

"Yes, I have this feeling too!" Xiao Huai bad immediately nodded his head, then frowned slightly, as if thinking of a word to describe, "It's like, like, how should I put it? It's like..."

"It's in good order!" Suddenly, a word popped out of Long Ji, who had always been taciturn!

As soon as he heard this word, Xiao Huai Huai's eyes lit up immediately, and he immediately took Long Ci's arm affectionately, nodded repeatedly, and said, "Yes, yes, yes! That's how it feels! It's order!"

As everyone observed the souls going back and forth on the street, it immediately felt very appropriate to describe it with the term "well-ordered" by Dragon Thorn.

The souls on the street, walking on the street one by one, are in order and look very harmonious.

At this time, the pharaoh also nodded with deep feeling, strode to the middle of the street, inserted into the souls of people passing by, and said: "If we walk on the street and mix with these souls, it will be like a peaceful road. In the middle of the river, a few huge rocks were suddenly thrown down, and the originally calm and gentle river was blocked, breaking the calm order."

"So, what does this have to do with arrogance?" the pope asked thoughtfully, frowning.

Xiao Huaihua walked back to the street, stared at the souls that kept coming, and said: "I only know that the expressions of these souls are very arrogant. Just look at us, look at us, and treat us as if we don't exist!" At the end of Xiao Huai, he wrinkled his little nose, stretched out his little hand mischievously, and slapped a soul walking towards him!

The little hand directly penetrated the soul's head, but the soul still walked forward swaggeringly, without even looking at Xiao Huai, it directly penetrated her body.

At this moment, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Huang Yi's mind, staring blankly at the souls passing through the body with the little villain, and murmuringly repeated what she just said, his eyes slowly lost focus-

"Treat us as if we didn't exist... Treat us as if we didn't exist..."

"What's the matter? Killing God, did you find anything?" Seemingly aware of Huang Yi's change, the poet turned his head and asked expectantly.

Countless viewers all over the world who are watching the live broadcast are also looking at Huang Yi from the perspective of the poet, looking at his pensive expression, looking at his out-of-focus eyes.

The rest of the super masters, including the naughty and active little badass on the street, also stopped and turned to look at Huang Yi!

They held their breath without making a sound, trying not to disturb his meditation!

The whole world fell silent, everyone was waiting for Huang Yi's thoughts!

The result of his thinking will become the key to the whole world!

After a while, Huang Yi's eyes finally lit up again, and they came into focus again, as if two dead planets suddenly came back to life!

He stared at Xiaobaiba, shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not that they treat us as non-existent, but we treat them as non-existent!"

"Why do you say that?" Xiaobaibai asked with wide eyes curiously.

Huang Yi immediately walked to the middle of the street, stretched out his hand to touch the oncoming people, and said: "Since we entered this city, we have always ignored these souls habitually, not to say that we have ignored their existence. Instead, they ignore their dignity. It can even be said that we do not regard these souls as human beings at all! In our eyes, only flesh and blood like us are human beings, and they are just some people who have been dead for an unknown amount of time. It's just a soul, no different from a mouse, a worm, or a dog."

When everyone thought about it, it seemed that this was indeed the case. From the bottom of their hearts, they didn't treat these souls as normal people. These souls are nothing more than background elements in a virtual scene, and their flesh and blood are the real people.

"Even so, what does it matter?" Dante asked, leaning against the church door with his arms folded.

"This is just a sin of arrogance!" Huang Yi stared at a soul walking in front of him, and said eloquently: "Because psychologically, we don't regard these souls as people like us, so our actions are inevitable. It's just arrogant. The most obvious thing is that when we walk on the street, we never avoid these souls, and we pass through them directly, as if they don't exist!"

Speaking of which, the soul that was walking towards him happened to pass right by him!

Huang Yi looked back at the soul that penetrated him, and said: "And this is why we feel discordant when walking on the street, because if we walk on a normal street and see pedestrians walking on the opposite side , will definitely avoid the other party, and will not treat them as if they do not exist!"

Everyone was stunned, looking at the souls passing by Huang Yi one by one, they began to think about what Huang Yi said just now.

At this time, Huang Yi took a step and walked back to the door of the church.

Xiaobaiba and Pharaoh also walked back from the street, completely giving up the street to those souls, and the street became orderly again.

Huang Yi stared at the orderly souls on the street, and continued: "After we leave this street, the reason why this street looks very harmonious and orderly is because they will not penetrate each other! Just like being on a real street!"

Everyone looked at the souls coming and going on the street, and they discovered this——

Although those souls glanced up, walked swaggeringly, and looked defiant, they would not penetrate each other. Each soul walked in a very orderly manner without disturbing other souls.

This was a normal scene at first, but they didn't pay attention to it before. It wasn't until Huang Yi pointed it out that they finally paid attention to it!

Huang Yi laughed at himself: "We always feel that the expressions of these souls are arrogant and arrogant. In fact, we are the ones who are really arrogant. Their arrogance is just expressions, but our arrogance is behavior!"

Huang Yi's words, like a hammer, hit everyone's hearts hard!

yes! Ever since they entered this city, they have been treating these souls with arrogance, never avoiding them when walking on the streets, treating them as air!

They always feel that their own behavior is normal, and the behavior of these souls is abnormal!

They don't realize that the ones who are really arrogant are not those souls, but themselves!

"Then what should we do?" At this time, Xiao Huai badly asked subconsciously.

"It's very simple!" Huang Yi smiled, "Treat these souls as normal people. When we walk on the street, we must avoid any souls that come towards us, and don't pass them by. Just like walking on a normal street. This way, we should be able to get out of the city!"
