Chapter Twenty-Six: The Master
It didn't take long for the entire island to begin worshipping the statue of the god of light. The more victorious person directly regarded Rihito's portrait as the god of light, because the relief in the treasure was too similar to Rihito, and there were words spoken by the god of light at that time.
Li Ren turned a blind eye to this matter, and only a few upper-level leaders in the army knew a little bit of the truth, but they didn't know anything about why there were so many miracles. In a month, when people believed in the god of light, there were many miracles. The people in the village and the people in the base camp slowly began to collude. At this time, all the upper echelons of the Suzaku Army felt that something was wrong, and they all offered their analysis to Rihito, but Rihito still agreed to the matter as before, as if he didn't want to know the whole incident at all, and he didn't want to care.
The Double Ninth Festival in September is an important festival of the Great Song Dynasty every year. On the small island in the far south, it is a festival that every villager and soldier is excited about, because today they are going to build the Temple of Light privately, and they jointly ask Liren to come out and be the leader of the God of Light.
Early in the morning, like a prophet, Rihito put on silver clothes and a silver crown of hair. Dressed in silver equipment, he brings out his mysterious temperament.
After getting dressed, he was about to go out, and as soon as he came to the gate of the capital, he saw his guards running in in a panic, and Liren said questioningly: "Why are you so flustered?" ”
Only then did the guards see that Liren had come to the front yard, and immediately hugged Liren and said, "Lord Qiqi, outside~~~!" As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of the gate, but he blushed and couldn't speak.
Liren hurriedly stepped forward to pat him on the back, and when the guards coughed loudly, he blushed and said, "Lord! Outside~~cough~There are a lot of villagers and soldiers outside, they~! They~~~cough~! They want the lord to be the leader of the sect~! The guards finally had what they had to say.
Rihito patted him on the shoulder and said, "I thought it was a big deal, didn't I just want to be the sect leader?" ”
The guards looked so calm that they touched their heads a little suspiciously. At this time, Rihito commanded: "Hurry! Lead the way in front of the head. The guards reacted and hurriedly walked in front of Rihito to the gate.
As soon as they went out, the guards were immediately frightened by the scene outside, and there were many men, women, and children outside, all looking forward to Liren's appearance, and some were still shouting: "Big island master, your old man come out quickly, we have something to discuss with you." ”
Rihito followed the guards to the gate, and he looked at all the people and soldiers outside with a calm smile.
The crowd waiting outside immediately cheered when they saw Liren's appearance, and the crowd was excited. Many people have to squeeze forward to get closer to Liren.
Li Ren stretched out his hands and pressed them to silence them, and then he said, "I wonder what the villagers and brothers are looking for me today?" If there's anything I'm sorry for, the big guys, please just say it. ”
Hearing Rihito say this, several old people and women standing in front of their heads took the lead and fell to their knees. Before Rihito came back to his senses, everyone behind him did the same, and suddenly everyone knelt down in front of Rihito.
Li Ren immediately hurriedly walked to the front and wanted to help them up, but then the old men stopped him and said: "It's not a big deal for the villains to come here today, and it's not for the sake of Xingshi, it's just that there is a matter that the big island owner must agree." ”
"What is the uncle, the aunt, you are killing the boy. Let's get up first! Saying that, Liren helplessly wanted to persuade these people to stand up.
When these old people heard this, they said, "The island is mainly promised to us, and we can stand up." If we don't agree, we old arms will not stand up even if we kneel to death. ”
Liren asked with surprise on his face: "Uncles and aunts, if there is anything that I can do, you can just say it." ”
An old man looked at the people left and right, and then said to Liren: "We want to ask the Lord of the Big Island to be the leader of our Bright Holy Sect. ”
"Oh! What is the Cult of Light? I don't know if that uncle and aunt can solve the kid's doubts. Rihito asked.
At this time, Dasha, who was in charge of patrolling, also came to the scene of the accident with all the high-ranking people of the Suzaku Army, and saw that Rihito was blocked by more than 10,000 people at the door of his small courtyard, and immediately became nervous, and rushed to Rihito's side to protect him.
When they rushed to the side and were about to shout at everyone below, Rihito stopped: "You don't have to be nervous, they have no malicious intent. ”
Dasha retreated behind Liren with his guards, but Zhang Yue asked curiously: "What is the matter with the lord, why do they gather at your door?" Li Ren didn't answer him, just winked at Zhang Ning with a smile.
Fang Ning looked at Zhang Yue with a smile on his face, stretched out his hand and pulled the corner of his clothes and whispered, "Don't ask questions now, just wait for the lord to explain our doubts." When Zhang Yue heard what Fang Ning said, he hugged his fists at Li Ren and stepped aside.
Not only Zhang Yue was puzzled, but other high-level people were also full of questions, but seeing that Li Ren did not answer Zhang Yue, they no longer thought about asking questions, but quietly looked at Li Ren, waiting for him to solve his doubts.
Rihito said to the uncle who had just spoken to him, "Uncle, tell me now, what kind of religion is the Illuminous God Cult?" Why hasn't the kid heard? ”
The old man was a little trembling now, but he still cheered up and said: "Qiqi Great Island Master, the Bright Holy Sect is like this, ~~~" Saying that, the old man explained the reason why his people organized the Bright Holy Sect from beginning to end.
Liren nodded in understanding, picked up the old man and said, "Oh! That's the thing. After thinking about it, Rihito said to the people below, "Everyone please get up." At this time, Rihito wanted to say something.
Fang Ning stabbed him in the back with his fingers from behind, and whispered, "Lord, it's like this today, if you don't agree, we won't be able to lead these people in the future." ”
Liren's words suddenly changed: "Okay! Since it is difficult for everyone to be so gracious, then I will promise you. ”
As soon as Liren said this, the people below immediately stood up and cheered loudly. Rihito was touched by the enthusiasm underneath and looked at these kind and hardworking people with a smile on his face. When people's enthusiasm was weakened, Rihito shouted to them, "Now please be quiet!" I have something to say now. ”
