CHAPTER XLVI

Selena said as she stuffed the candy in her hand into her mouth, "In addition to worship, these tributes are the best way for the gods to store their faith. And since most of the priests and priests in the monasteries did not have a livelihood occupation, the tribute from the faithful was their only source of income. After receiving the tributes, the priests would place them on the sacrificial altar and pass on the beliefs in the offerings to their gods, who would receive the faith and the priests would enjoy the offerings. As she spoke, Selena looked at the central cathedral of Il: "Of course, this is only the treatment that a god with a large number of believers can only have in a cathedral in a prosperous place, and in other small places, those believers themselves can't eat enough, how can they come up with a lot of tribute." ”

As she spoke, Selena had a smile on her face: "Those small places can't get good tribute, so most of them are just baskets of bread, or beast meat that they have brought themselves, and the amount is not too much. These things are not released and are not available every day, so the pastors in those small places often eat with their mouths full of oil today, and starve for a day tomorrow with an empty stomach, so they will also go to work in the fields themselves, and in the end, they become professional farmers and part-time pastors. In some places, if the church is next to the sea, during the drying season, you will receive a lot of salted fish, and the whole church will smell salted fish. ”

John also found it amused, with a smile on his face. After all, those sacrifices are offered to the gods, and the priest can't refuse, and the gods don't value what you sacrifice, only the faith in the sacrifice, so no matter what the believer sends, the priest can only pinch his nose and accept it. Therefore, during the harvest season, everyone will pay more tribute, and usually there will not be too much spare money to make offerings. John even saw a pastor in a big city who had been assigned to a remote place, who could not stand the suffering there, and who was ready to lead his followers to make a fortune.

Thinking of this, John sighed. The kid thought it was good and kind-hearted, but he committed the taboo of separating church and state. You have this way, upload it through the church channel, and let your superiors hand over to the state apparatus is the right way. If you do it yourself, the consequences are not good.

At the end of this rumor, the priest was severely punished by the priest and sent back to the cathedral.

Indeed, although both the royal family and the church were family members and cronies of their own gods when they were still alive, when the gods became gods, the two sides could not interfere with each other, and this was an iron rule that no country would abide by. And that little priest violated this rule, even if his starting point, his purpose, and his ideas were good, but his means were wrong, so he was punished.

The horses' hooves slowly moved down the street, and the wheels of the carriage gurgled forward. Selena was a little bored after saying this. Looking at the candy on the seat, Selena stuffed the candy back into her pocket. Golia's little guy ran out of John's hood, and Selena saw it and took out a candy and handed it to Golia. Gloria looked at John, and seeing that John did not object, she stretched her neck and took the candy in her mouth, tilted her head and took it in her mouth, allowing the sweetness of the candy to spread in her mouth.

Gloria liked this feeling, and flew up and rubbed Selena's face, then flew back and continued to lie on top of John's head.

John looked out the window, just looking, the location of those primordial souls had already been marked in his field of vision, what was the identity of each primordial soul, what was it doing, everything could not escape John's sight.

"Huh?" As if he saw something interesting, John sat up slightly, his eyes no longer scanning back and forth between the rough spirits, but looking out the window in the direction of the city. There, there's a Primogem Soul that doesn't seem to distinguish this from the rest of the game. After learning that killing other creatures can obtain strategic resources, this primordial soul turned his mind to the animals raised by the farmers outside. He can't touch or beat the big cows and sheep, but the big rooster that crows is easier to deal with. And now, this guy is bending over and sneaking up on the. But before he could do it, he was discovered by the watchdog kept by the neighbor and barked wildly. This primordial soul was taken aback, and ran away without caring about hiding its figure. Don't be shocked by this run, it also alarmed many villagers in the village, many villagers poked their heads out to take a look, and found this guy who had escaped, and without saying a word, he chased after him with a hoe and sickle or something from his home, and drove this rough stone soul out of a long distance.

"Big man, what are you looking at. John's actions attracted Selena's attention, and he also followed John to look at the primordial soul: "This guy, isn't this not here yet?" John nodded: "This newcomer primordial soul, I'm afraid that he only had a cursory understanding of a little information about this place and started to act, not to mention more, if he was caught just now, he didn't have a suitable identity and couldn't speak the language here, it is estimated that being sent directly to the sheriff would be the best result." ”

Selena nodded and looked again: "But around him, it seems that he is the only one." I don't know how he got here. "It's true that the newcomers before were basically led by the primordial spirits who came first, and even if there were no forerunners who led the way, they had mastered the Nimitz language by themselves like the previous radish. Looking at this newcomer, it seems that he chose equipment at the beginning, so now he has neither a suitable identity nor money, so it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch.

Selena looked at it interestingly, and suddenly looked at John: "Big man, or let's go find him." ”

"Shall we go?" John was stunned when he first heard this. When did Selene start to care so much about the condition of the Primordial Soul? This doesn't look like what Selena is going to do. Turning his head to look at Selena, he found that her face was more interesting, and touched her forehead: "I think you want to go out and play, right?"

Selena nodded, and looked at the primordial soul again: "We are here to help this primordial soul, of course, it is also a matter of passing out to play." ”

Speaking of which, John has been in the city for quite some time. Haven't been around the continent much. At this time, while you can complete most of the tasks in your own restaurant, and Lily is taking care of you, it is okay to go out and play by yourself. Thinking of this, John nodded: "So, let's go." I won't be going back today. Let's go straight to it. ”
