[y-] Yoshi is in the [3] basement of the [-ang] chapel where he is being tortured by evil priests. He is bolted to the cement ground as they make Yoshi 癢 itch like crazy by rubbing a 羊 sheep all over his body. He 癢 itches so much that he sneezes out 疒 snot that goes all over the 羊 sheep and the priests. The 疒 snot even has some pieces of 食 food in it, eww!
