Chapter 706: The Holy Envoy of the East

Coming out of the Kaba shrine, the sky was getting darker, and when he returned to his original position, he found that Catherine was no longer there, and looked around, but still didn't find her, "Strange, where have you gone?" Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

"Hubie-Hubby-"

Stopped a Persian girl, gestured to her a few times, almost her breasts were very big, and her ass was particularly unreasonable, the Persian girl seemed to understand, her face was very happy, and she pulled Shen Feng to a hidden place, just when it was strange, the Persian girl had already stripped naked, it turned out that this girl was bringing him to consume, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly fled.

Back in the square, simply squeezed into the middle of the crowd to look for it, she had been on the Manichaean side before, and she had been looking for no one here, so she should have gone to the Mazda side, and through a few crowds, she finally found Catherine under a god statue, only to see her face thoughtful, her eyes kept looking at a glass bottle, and there was an egg that had been peeled off the shell on the mouth of the glass bottle.

"Madame, so you're here. ”

Hearing this, Catherine looked back and said with an apologetic smile, "Sorry." ”

This is the territory of the Mazda Sect, and most of the people gathered are old people, an old man in a strange pattern is sitting at a table, glass bottles and eggs are placed in front of him, and everyone around him is thinking.

Seeing this, he said strangely: "Why are you and them looking at this egg?"

Catherine said: "Geso Sheikh has come up with a problem, how to squeeze eggs into a bottle without crushing them, I have been thinking about it for a long time and have not come up with an answer. (Sheikh, is a noun transliterated from Arabic, and is an honorific title for *** teacher, old man, and senior)

"How is this possible?" looked at the old man, no matter how he looked at him, it didn't look like he was teasing people, and he was a scholar in the church, and a scholar was a person who represented wisdom.

Catherine smiled bitterly, "But we are always in the eye for the impossible. ”

Geso Sheikh was a very peaceful old man, seeing that Shen Feng was dressed strangely and had no intention of rejection, he smiled enthusiastically and said a few words, and Shen Feng responded with a smile.

As night fell, the Kaba shrine lit torches, and the surrounding Persian Gazi also raised torches, and the Church had not only the people, but also the warriors, who were generally the coercive instruments used by the Church to bestow sins, as well as small military forces that organized themselves. (Ghazi, Arabic means warrior.) )

The huge pomp, as well as the shouts of the believers, made Shen Feng look ahead, that is, the Kaba Shrine Table, two people walked out of the platform, and countless believers shouted frantically for this, with incomparable fanaticism in their eyes.

"Who are they?"

Catherine said: "Imam, according to the Eastern religion is called imams, the supreme leaders of the church, they have a mark on their foreheads, which represents their identity. ”

It turned out to be the abbot, the pomp is so big, according to this view, this church is a bit like a cult, using ghosts and gods to corrupt people's hearts, if the church power is not eradicated, it is a heart disease for every monarch, it seems that I came to Persia this time, the key to success or failure is in the church, thinking of this, solemnly said: "Miss Princess, can you ask Geso Sheikh to do me a favor, I want to solve the puzzle of holy water." ”

"Willing to help. Catherine laughed with interest, and then said a few words to Geso Sheikh, who was visibly surprised, and with a very surprised face, he said a few words in Persian.

"The advice from a scholar that holy water is taboo in the church, and if you fail, you will receive a letter of condemnation from the church, well, I'll be honest, it won't be that simple. Catherine relayed the words to the past, and whatever came out of her mouth became much more interesting.

Shen Feng didn't speak, he took off a small piece of paper casually, lit the piece of paper, and then quickly put it into the bottle, and at the same time put the peeled egg back on the mouth of the bottle.

Shen Feng grinned and said, "I think scholars will believe a little bit now." ”

Oh-Catherine covered her mouth with her hands and exclaimed, "How did you do that?" ”

"As you can see. ”

Equally surprised was Geso Sheikh, who was even more surprised than anyone else, looked at the mysterious man curiously, and then said a few words in Persian, Catherine smiled: "Geso Sheikh is willing to help us." ”

With the help of Geso Sheikh, he was able to walk up to the shrine in a grand manner, and all the believers noticed the two strangely dressed mysterious men, one wearing a mask of relief with a smile and a mask of repentance and sadness, which was awe-inspiring on the surface.

Geso belongs to the Mazda Sect, and the Mazda Sect Patriarch is an elderly grandmother, who is still two rounds older than Gesuo, and Geso is also a teacher and friend, Geso and the Mazda Sect Patriarch talked a few words, and after the Mazda Sect Patriarch showed a shocked look, he walked up to the two and said some Persian.

"This is Affaf, a descendant of Muhammad, and she asked you if you could make holy water come back to life. Catherine translated.

Shen Feng did the same, performed a church ritual to Aff, and said solemnly: "Tell her that when the night is completely covered, I will let the holy water fall from the sky." ”

Imam Afaf closed his eyes and silently recited some scriptures, and then walked to the Manichaean Imam Feda, *** The name of the religion has a special meaning, such as Afaf symbolizes chastity, here chastity is not infertility, but a lifetime of only loyalty to her husband, and Feda is the meaning of atonement and sacrifice, just now the Manichaean Protestants stripped naked and let others insult them, the meaning of this ritual is to atone for their sins, on the other hand, the Protestants of Mazda Christianity, they accept the baptism of clear water, just let people splash water.

At this time, Ge Suo came over and said a few words, as if asking Shen Feng how to squeeze the eggs into the bottle just now, Catherine was already itchy, and immediately said, "Shen, Sheikh asked you, how did you do it just now." ”

It turned out that the old man didn't know what was going on, Shen Feng smiled: "It's very simple, using the principle of pressure, there is pressure in the air we are in, and air is needed for combustion, so I only need to burn pieces of paper in the bottle, and the pressure inside the bottle is relatively small outside, and the air can squeeze the eggs in." ”

At this time, there was no theory of pressure, and the theory of relative formation was after the experiment of the Madebao hemisphere, in 1654, which should not have been such an advanced theory in this era, as for the need for air for combustion, this has been proposed by some people.

In fact, we usually use a straw to inhale liquids, which is also the principle of pressure, but it is not so intuitive.

After hearing this, Geso Sheikh was also confused, and continued to ask Shen Feng for advice, and Shen Feng did not hesitate to give advice, trying to explain to him, he is a scholar who has been studying all his life, and his thirst for knowledge is as much as the air around him.

Entering the night, the mood of the people became higher and higher, knowing that they had not eaten or drunk for a day, after Afif and Feida had a few words, the two patriarchs walked over to Shen Feng together and asked

Catherine probably explained a few words to him, and during the conversation, Shen Feng noticed the Manichaean Imam Feda, who was a middle-aged Persian man with a very fair face, probably because he hadn't been exposed to the sun for a long time, but his beard was very dark, and the whole person looked very serious, but his eyes were slightly dark.

When Feda looked at her, she felt very uncomfortable.

"Princess Chick, take out the parchment scroll. Although it was already night, if the sheepskin was roasted over the fire, the words would still come out: "Tell them that I was invited by Allah to save Persia." ”

Catherine relayed the words and gave the sheepskin to the two imams, who, seeing that there was no writing on it, spoke another word in Persian.

Probably guessing the meaning, he took the sheepskin and put it on a stone in front of him, this stone is the stone in front of the Xuan Pagoda, the stone is not thick, the inside is empty, and it is also the place where the flame of the Xuan Pagoda is lit, and in half an hour, that is, the last prostration of the Holy Day, at that time, the Xuan Pagoda will light the greatest flame.

The reason why the tower can not spray out the holy water, is because the iron sheet that connects the water flow is stuck, as long as the position is corrected, the iron sheet can move freely, when the flame burns to the most vigorous, and then move the gate of the iron sheet to make the water spray out, in addition, there is another reason, that is, the Xuan Tower is mistakenly regarded as the place to ignite the flame, the Xuan Tower is used to spew water, the real eruption of the flame is a fire stick, as long as the fire is lit from under the Xuan Tower, the fire is piled up, and the fire stick on it is burned, the fire stick built-in combustible material can produce flames outward, and at the same time burn the air in the Xuan Tower, when the pressure in the Xuan Tower is reduced, and at the same time shake by manpower, the landscape of the fountain will be presented.

The whole pagoda can be seen as a simple pump.

The hour is approaching, Shen Feng has lit the flame in the cliff, the flame is getting stronger and stronger, you can hear the sound of the fire inside, see that it is time, go to the top of the Xuan Tower and start to shake the shaft to pump the air inside, due to the backward technical conditions, the air is not very much, fortunately, a part of the air is burned with fire, so the pump can be successful.

A huge flame erupted from the rod of fire, and the believers in the square knelt down in unison, chanting Allah Allah, and at this moment, it was solemn, and everyone prayed sincerely.

At the same time, a burst of sound erupted in the sky above the Xuan Tower, in the dark night, several clear streams shot towards the sky, rapidly rose to the highest place, and then landed, because the Xuan Tower has multiple holes, the water sprayed out like a giant fan, which can moisten everyone bit by bit.

The scene of the hundred years reappeared, all the believers cheered wildly, their eyes became more and more fanatical, even the two patriarchs were crazy about it, everyone knelt down again, kept prostrating on the ground, and chanted a word in their mouths, which was dedicated to Shen Feng.

"Hedro!Markerkai!Hezhuo!Markerkai!" (Hydro is a Persian honorific title for the elderly, and Markachy means angel or holy messenger)

When Shen Feng walked down from the Xuan Tower, Catherine had already held up the sheepskin and presented it to Afaf, who saw the words on the sheepskin, his expression was immediately excited, and he turned to all the disciples and pointed the sheepskin towards everyone.

"Tell Allah Allah and ask Prometheus, the god of wisdom, and Assia to save our homeland!!!" (Persian)

The followers of the Markak !!! became even more fanatical, and the cries shook the entire Persian capital, Allah Allah is their master and where all faith lies, and Shen Feng was sent in the name of God, and they will dedicate themselves to the same as reverence and faith in Allah Allah.

"Mr. E, you succeeded. Catherine stood side by side with him, calm and smiling in the face of the frenzied cries of the crowd.

Behind the two, Feida looked down thoughtfully.

"This is the beginning. "If you want to dismantle Manichaeism, you need to have a deep understanding of Manichaeism, the current Persia, Manichaeism is more popular than Mazdaism, and the Kaba shrine in front of you is funded by Manichaeism, but in terms of financial resources, Mazdaism is in a pitiful situation, and the church building is very small, relying on the authentic heritage of the first religion.

“so?”

Shen Feng smiled and said, "Go back and sleep, someone will naturally come to us in a few days." "Both churches want to be the only church in Persia, and if Shen Feng suddenly appears, they will definitely fight for it.

All Persian believers are still fanatical, and even though Shen Feng has left, this night is destined to be a sleepless night in the Persian capital.

Back in the inn, Shen Feng also returned to his original appearance, Mr. Duke has prepared everything, tomorrow he will pretend to be an English mission to enter the palace, compared to the situation of the church, the situation in the palace needs to be more worried, once the king dies, the Pahlavi family will definitely take the opportunity to seize power.

It has been almost a month since I left Persia, and I am very concerned about the women at home, after the change of Xuanwumen, it will also have an impact on them, they can only hide in remote and deserted places, and they have to dodge when they go out, as well as the Lin family's garment business, the garment business may have to be suspended for a long time in several important towns, but Lan and the eldest lady can only maintain their business far away.

At present, the situation in which Shen Feng is located can be divided into two layers, inside, the emperor, Puyang Ce, and Tiance Mansion form a triangular trend, contain each other, and fear each other. Dahua, can be regarded as a tripartite imperial power, Dahua is strong, Rouran has strong combat power, Byzantium is in its heyday, among the tripartite imperial forces, Byzantium is facing pressure from Western Europe, and it does not pose a threat to Dahua and the Rouran people, but it is the Rouran tribe, which has natural advantages inside and outside, so it has great ambitions, and when it continues to expand its northern territory, it also invades Dahua, and will even attack Byzantium in the future, which is currently the biggest threat in the world.

Faced with such a situation, resisting the Rouran tribe is the only condition for survival.
