Hongyi doesn't know how to read minds, so he doesn't quite understand the real reason for Buicto's words at this moment, and thinks he doesn't know whether his Orthodox priest Sergei and the Moscow Patriarch, the famous Father Nikon, have anything to do with each other. So, it was Hongyi who took the lead in breaking the silence and kindly relieved:

"Perhaps, you came to the Far East of my Great Qing Dynasty a few years ago, after all, you are too far away from Moscow, so naturally you don't know what the relationship between the Patriarch and Sergei is. Don't mind ......."

Unexpectedly, this well-intentioned explanation sounded to Buicto as a precursor to his fall from grace! This is worth it and must be remedied in time! So, Buicto couldn't think about it anymore, and hurriedly replied:

"Master, although the slave left Moscow for some reason ten years ago, the slave has already heard of what the patriarch has done recently! After all, he can be said to be the godfather of the so-called Tsar today. ”

"Oh?" Sure enough, Hongyi was looking forward to learning first-hand information about this contemporaries of the famous "Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia" in history, so he asked a little impatiently: "Do you know some things about him?" Let's hear it. ”

Little Belle's curiosity greatly encouraged Buicto's confidence. The Albazo leader suddenly felt that his irreplaceable position in the eyes of his master had been unprecedentedly strengthened, and hurriedly reported in detail:

"Master, this patriarch calls himself 'Nikon', and his common name is Nikita. Minov ......"

"Huh, Nikon? Nikita? For the first time since Hongyi traveled, he heard this familiar famous international brand of Japanese Kou in the mouths of a person of this era. and the name of the heroine of the famous American drama "Nikita" played by Maggie-Q [Maggie-Q], who suddenly felt a lot of emotion, and couldn't help but repeat it casually.

"Yes, master, it's Nikita, and he named himself Nikon." Buicto naturally didn't know that there was a shameless Japanese enterprise in later generations who had embezzled such a special name, and thought that Xiao Xuanye was not very sure of his words, so he hurriedly added:

"Actually, this name is still very particular in the Rakshasa and even further in the West, master."

"Really?" Hongyi really didn't know anything about this.

"Yes. Master. Nikon is the mythical ancestor of a royal family in the West called the 'Shlukes'. It is said that this Schluke came from more distant Africa......"

Hongyi wasn't really interested in this Schlucker, but he was too embarrassed to interrupt Bekotov's Yaxing who was chattering for the first time, and he didn't understand why he had become so chattering today.

"Nikon is the embodiment of a hero in the mythology of the Shluk and is seen as a messenger between the rain god Juok and mortals. The ancient ritual of praying for rain was held in the temple dedicated to Nikon. Legendary. It was Nikon who fished the first humans out of the water with harpoons and hooks. Others say it was because he split a pumpkin that was pushed out of the water by a white cow. So the ancestors of mankind came out of the melon, and the first people appeared. ”

Hear here. Hongyi only knows that there are many people who know the Tao of Lu, and there are many people who know the Tao of Lu, at least some Western myths and legends that he does not know much about and have never heard.

"The first man to come out of the pumpkin was called 'Colo', and he rescued two beautiful girls from the water as his wife and gave birth to three sons. One of them is Nikon. Nikon's mother's name was Niakayo. ”

The more Hongyi listened, the more interesting he felt, so he nodded frequently. Buicto naturally worked harder.

"Nikon later fought with his brothers for some unknown reason, and he won the ultimate victory. It is said that he also fought against the sun, and it seems that he is as savage as the Westerners......"

Buicto seemed to be so proud that he forgot that he was originally a "Westerner", and actually made fun of his own kind. Hongyi was anxious about the following, directly interrupted his flattery, and asked:

"And then?"

Later, Nikon was blown away by a gust of wind and disappeared without a trace. Before his disappearance, he ordered that the Shluke people should henceforth perform rituals to worship himself. As a result, the Schluckers believed that every king was the reincarnation of Nikon, so they worshipped it very much. Later, this myth somehow became part of the polytheistic worship of the Rakshasa Rus. Later, although Greek Orthodoxy introduced Rakshasa and replaced polytheism, the Rus still retained their worship of Nikon. ”

After listening to this short story, Hongyi was almost confused by Buicto's expression of "later", "later", and "later", but he clearly knew that the so-called multinational company of "later" small Japan had stolen the "holy name" in the primitive worship of the West that did not know the ins and outs of the Tao to make its own brand! "Take-it-or-leave-it" is used in every way, even the primitive tribes!

"As for the Patriarch Father Nikon, rumors about him have been flowing from Moscow to the ears of the minions in recent years." After a lot of what Buicto thought was "profound knowledge", he finally returned to the topic.

"What's the rumor?" Hongyi is happy to learn a thing or two and see what are the similarities and differences with the knowledge points he learned three hundred years later.

"Returning to his master, it is said that Nikon was born into a Moldovan[1] peasant family, and he entered a monastery at the age of 12, in 7132 after the Genesis ......"

"The year of Genesis? Bekto, are you still in Moscow? Don't use the Julian calendar, use the Gregorian calendar! Or you can use my Chinese year, which year is the Yellow Emperor? Hongyi was really scratching his head at the so-called "genesis year" of the Russians, and said unreasonably.

"Huh! Minion...... Allow the slave to count...... 7132 minus 5508...... Equal to 1624! Master, it's the year 1624 of the Gregorian calendar! As for the Yellow Emperor chronology...... Minion...... The minion ...... "Buicto really can't be counted."

"It's the year of the Yellow Emperor 4322," with the Gregorian calendar year, the Yellow Emperor year is no problem for Hongyi! Fortunately, Hongyi was reluctant to embarrass Buicto's small IQ for this, so he continued: "You can use the Gregorian calendar!" ”

"Thank you for your patronage!" Buicto was relieved, and then continued:

That is, in 1624, at the age of 19, Nikon took over the priesthood, which can be regarded as a young man. But then his children somehow died, so he abandoned his wife and became a monk in Moscow. ”

"In 1646, Nikon became the abbot of the Kozheozelsky Monastery near Arkhangelsk, and according to custom, he first went to Moscow to meet the young First Duke of Moscow, the so-called 'Tsar' Alexei. Nikon made a good impression on him, and the First Duke offered that Father Nikon could stay in Moscow. ”

Hongyi had to hold back a laugh, and nodded his head decently, praising Bekto for being very "knowledgeable" about replacing the word "Tsar" with "First Class Duke of Moscow".

"After that, the Patriarch Joseph appointed Father Nikon as a priest of the Neo-Spassky Monastery, according to Alexei's wishes, which was the family burial place of their Romanov dynasty."

In Moscow, Father Nikon joined a group of great nobles and clergy, who advocated the unification of the statutes of religious law in the Church, the strengthening of religious education among the population, the strict religious life, and the translation of a large number of religious books. So in 1648 he was promoted to the position of Archbishop of Novgorod. ”

Two years later, in 1650, Novgorod, where Nikon lived, as in Moscow in 1648, rebelled against the new salt tax. However, the cunning Nikon used his hand to decisively suppress the rebellion, and in turn won the trust of the First Duke of Moscow. Two years later, Patriarch Joseph died, and in accordance with the wishes of First Duke Alexei, Nikon was naturally promoted by the Religious Council to the so-called Patriarch, that is, the supreme head of the Orthodox Church in Moscow and the whole of Rakshasa. ”

"Oh!" Hongyi has to admit that Buicto's historical description of Nikon, the patriarch, is more comprehensive and continuous than many later sources.

"A limerick poem. Hidden Head

Reading literature and reading history is only a long breath

I was saying that there was an opportunity back then

The layout is a long-cherished wish

It's hard to come and go

Get up and spend a hundred years

Point out the suffering and diseases of the world

The edge of the town was razed to the sea

Wen'an Wuding tears of joy
