Wu Heng When Ben mentioned 'it', he released Swine Two.

Swine Two's trick attack instantly enveloped Ben, causing him to fall into the illusion that Wu Heng had spun for him.

As Ben himself said, there is a bubble of fear in his heart that is gradually growing. This bubble itself is the seed planted by Pennywise Pennywise, the fruit of fear.

For Pennywise, it is a delicious delicacy and a fine wine that has been aged for years, just waiting to be drunk.

This kind of fearful power from humans is likely to be passed on by Pennywise to Deadlights's body in the super universe.

What Wu Heng wants to do is to overturn the dining table and smash the wine vat before Pennywise comes.

Eat?

Get down on the ground and eat leftovers!

If he comes later, he will have to clean up the leftovers.

Now the bubble of fear in my heart has been poked by Wu Heng. Many things are most scary only when you experience them for the first time.

The experience just now has nothing to do with Pennywise. It is an illusion created by Wu Heng.

Swine Two will be hiding behind the statue of Jesus on the church platform, but the sound of pushing the door now is not the arrangement of Wu Heng.

So both of them looked back.

A pair of old-fashioned sneakers and slim legs in black trousers stepped in first from the door, followed by a thin body, an old man with a beard.

This is just an ordinary old man.

Wu Heng felt relieved, but Ben looked slightly disappointed.

"Oh my God, Father List, do you know what happened?"

The red-nosed old man yelled loudly as soon as he entered the door, and walked closer with a loud roar.

"My dog is lost!"

"It must be because I scolded that ugly woman Melissa yesterday. I came to pray and thank you."

The old man raised the broken dog leash in his hand, signaled to Wu Heng and Ben, then put his hands together on his chest, facing the Jesus statue on the stage, and muttered loudly to himself:

"Lord, I thank you! Yesterday, I sinned against the flesh again. I cursed others. I know this is a sin and it should not be done. I admit my mistake, but I am here to give thanks, because you have borne all my sins on the cross for me. I have been forgiven. Thank you, Lord, in the holy name of the Lord Jesus Christ."

"Please let my Pete come back!"

Wu Heng was a little speechless. He was arranging a formation with the devil here, and he didn't know whether he was worshiping the statue of Jesus or worshiping Evil Buddha Bronze Statue. After all, Swine Two was also there. He said softly:

"I think the Lord has forgiven you. Maybe you should look back."

From the moment the old man entered the door, there was a Bichon Frize following behind him.

It was holding a piece of dead Maturin shell in its mouth. Because the turtle shell was too heavy, it could only hold it and rest for a while. The mouth was occupied, and the saliva flowed along the cracks in the turtle shell and on the ground.

This is also the reason why the old man kept shouting 'Pete' and it didn't answer.

When the old man heard this, he didn't care about praying. He turned around quickly and saw his beloved dog. He quickly stepped forward and tied it with a rope, threw the turtle shell in its mouth aside, and led the puppy away.

Wu Heng stared at this scene silently.

Puppy and turtle shell.

I don't know if it's an accident, a warning, or a sign?

This puppy is very similar to a puppy in the plot.

That is in the Well House underground building at 29 Neibolt Street. When the protagonist group went there, there were three doors: "Very scary", "a bit scary", and "not scary at all".

The little yellow dog in the "not scary at all" door is very similar to the dog led by the old man.

Wu Heng stepped forward and pinched the turtle shell covered in puppy saliva with a paper towel and picked it up.

In this movie, Maturin appears many times, including the Maturin toy that the protagonist had when he was a child, the Maturin that swam in the river when he encountered Pennywise, the Maturin pattern on the wall, etc.

Wu Heng believes that there is interference from Maturin.

The red-nosed old man left, Wu Heng took out a bunch of hand towels from his arms, wiped the Maturin shell, and asked Xiang Ben:

"Do you still remember that last feeling just now?"

"That anger!"

Ben seemed to have just recovered from his emotional ups and downs. When he heard Wu Heng's words, he was full of surprise:

"I remember, Father, you also saw those pictures of me just now?"

Ben was a little confused. Isn't this an illusion? How did the priest see it?

"As you said, your heart is full of fear, like a ripening fruit of fear. It is the best food Pennywise."

"I just helped you experience it. I cut a slit in its fruit to release the juice, but some of it is still edible. This will make you even weaker when facing it."

"On the contrary, it feeds on fear and becomes stronger."

These words made Ben flinch a little. He had grown up and was no longer the high-spirited young man. He already knew how to weigh gains and losses.

Pennywise of Derry is only active in Derry. He currently lives in Hemington Town. What does the things there have to do with him.

Just when he thought of this, the scar on the palm of his hand seemed to start to hurt slightly again. He recalled the residual warmth in his palm in the fantasy just now.

"You have been targeted, and running away will not solve the problem."

"If you can face your fear, you can face Pennywise."

Wu Heng saw Ben's thoughts and emphasized.

These seven people are not only the fruits selected by Pennywise Pennywise, but also the candidates selected by Maturin to eliminate the projection of 'it' on the earth.

This is a game in itself.

If anyone could make Pennywise look like a baby with just a few words, then Pennywise wouldn't have existed on the earth for millions of years.

"Father, was the hallucination just now caused by you? Could it be that you are the messenger sent by God?"

There was a glimmer of hope in Ben's eyes, a hope that reached his thighs.

Wu Heng stopped what he was doing, raised the turtle shell in his hand, and said in a joking tone:

"No, I don't believe in God, nor was he sent by him, but this does not affect me as a priest."

"Instead of believing in God, I would rather believe that it is hard enough to beat Pennywise to death!"

Ben was a little frustrated when he heard this. He only thought that Wu Heng was using the turtle shell that had been chewed by dogs to tease God.

Little did they know, Wu Heng was hinting.

To a certain person, it hints at his determination to deal with Pennywise, at least it can give him a little more security.

"Ben, believe in your own potential. Just like when you were a child and didn't know you would achieve what you have today, you have enough potential to deal with Pennywise."

When Ben heard this, he always felt a little doubtful. He didn't even have confidence in himself, but the priest in front of him didn't seem to be simple. At least the illusion just now could prove that he was not an ordinary person.

This is also the only person he can rely on now.

"What about Ben? Do you still want to continue training in the fantasy world in order to defeat that Pennywise?"

"Although it was an illusion just now, if you can't defeat your inner fear first, it may become a reality. When you defeat yourself, you will defeat Pennywise."

"Besides, your love letter is pretty good. I don't know if you wrote it for someone else or if you wrote it for the girl you like. With your current conditions, you should be able to match that girl."

After hearing this, Ben quietly touched the postcard in his pocket, recalling the fiery red hair of Beverly Marsh in the hallucination just now.

'Yes, he is no longer that humble little fat man. He is now worthy of that girl in terms of body and wealth.'

"Please continue, Father, I want to get the power to defeat Pennywise. I no longer want to be that little fat man."

Ben said firmly.
