Chapter 216: Indian Believers
Chen Xu's body shook and was repelled by the power of the wormhole. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He was down-to-earth, and at first glance he saw the dense crowd of believers in front of him, numbering thousands.
These people are a group of Indians smeared with red paint, they wear grass aprons to cover the ** parts of the body, and the rest of the place is exposed to the air.
And their faces are full of pious expressions.
As soon as these Indians saw Chen Xu come out, they immediately bowed down to Chen Xu, chanting a passage intertwined with Indian and English.
Chen Xu could only vaguely hear part of the meaning.
"Praise the Lord...... Believers pray for the Lord's coming ....... ”
It is clear that the English of these Indians was only newly learned, not only because the pronunciation was inaccurate, but also because the surnames were mixed with the Indian language when speaking English.
However, although these Indians did not know English, they were all very religious, and they were still one step away from reaching the point of fanatics, and even their beliefs were purer than those of ordinary fanatics.
This is because they are simple-minded and have relatively few distractions.
"Peter." Chen Xu saw Peter, who was the leader, and said with a smile: "You are very satisfied with what you have done, and I will give you strength." ”
Chen Xu waved his hand, and a wave of magic power gushed out and injected into Peter's body, which was his reward for Peter.
If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have done it, you will be punished, this is Chen Xu's attitude towards Peter.
Peter only felt a burst of energy injected into his body, and before he could react, this energy combined with the power in his body, rapidly increasing the power in his body.
Unlike Chen Xu's neutral magic, the magic in Peter's body is a kind of magic full of darkness and evil, and it is an energy condensed by extracting the negative energy in the space, which is very powerful.
However, no matter how powerful the energy is, it needs to be supported by a sufficient amount, and it is obvious that he who has just stepped into the magic field, even if he has drunk the blood of Lucifer, will not be able to do it in one step.
You also need to slowly accumulate mana.
But now, Chen Xu took the initiative to infuse energy into his body, and immediately increased the total amount of magic power in his body to the 'Black Iron' realm, allowing him to cross a level.
"Praise the Lord." Peter was so happy that he praised the Lord again and again, and he wanted to say thank you, but when he thought of who he was, he didn't say thank you, but said, 'Praise the Lord,' after all, man and God are not equal.
"You deserve it." Chen Xu waved his hand, originally he planned to promote Peter to the 'silver' realm, but with his current ability, he couldn't do this, so he gave up.
"You come with me."
Chen Xu flew away in a blink of an eye.
"The sacrifice has succeeded, the great Lord has answered our call, and in the future, we will defeat the enemy tribe and become the sole master of the entire continent." Peter said to the prostrate.
After speaking, he followed Chen Xu.
Chen Xu flew to a short distance and stopped, looking at the forest.
This forest is full of tall trees, very primitive, many birds fly around in the air, and there is a faint roar of beasts, which adds to the vitality of this forest.
"Great Lord." Peter followed Chen Xu and walked over.
"Tell me about your development during this time." Chen Xu asked.
The reason why he called Peter here was to find out how far he had developed during this time, but none of this should be known to the believers, because he needed to maintain his image in front of the believers.
In fact, gods are very similar to celebrities, and believers in gods are fans of celebrities.
Unbelievers are ordinary people who don't chase stars, pan-believers are fans who chase many stars, and it can also be said that they are fans who chase stars rationally, while true believers are hardcore fans of stars, as for fanatical believers, they are naturally brain-dead fans of stars, and believers at the level of the Holy Spirit have not yet had that star.
Because celebrities are also human beings, it is impossible to keep believers in sync with their own thoughts.
However, gods and stars are different, celebrities need exposure, but gods absolutely do not need exposure, and gods even need to remain mysterious, because the gods who frequently appear in front of people are not gods but mortals, at best just a mortal with a strong point.
"Yes." Peter responded respectfully, and then told him what had happened during this time.
It turned out that after he came to this continent, he encountered a lot of troubles, such as food, such as some mosquito bites, poisoning, wild beasts, and so on.
The beast is very easy to solve, with the strength of him and Liu Yiyi, it is relatively easy to kill the beast, but poisoning is very troublesome.
If you want them to poison and curse others, they are good at it, but if you want them to detoxify, it will be a bit difficult.
In the process, many people died, but they also managed to find an Indian tribe.
This Indian tribe, called the Mohican, was a relatively small tribe that was being attacked by another slightly larger tribe and was about to be annexed.
Peter intervened at a critical moment to save the tribe, and this kindness, coupled with the mysterious power shown by Peter, was worshipped as a god by the Indians, but he did not admit that he was a god, but only said that he was a messenger of God.
"Great Lord, please forgive me for changing your name without permission." Peter suddenly panicked, "In order to better spread the faith, I have changed your name to the Most High God. ”
"What's going on?" Chen Xu's eyes froze, and anger appeared on his face.
The name of a god is the name of a god in the hearts of believers, and if the name of a god is changed without permission, it can lead to instability in the faith, or at worst to divide the believers and start a war.
Peter saw that Chen Xu's face was angry, and he was a little frightened, "That's the case. ”
Then he told him why he wanted to change God's name.
It turned out that these Indians did not know what the Lord was, and in the missionary place, just explaining the word "Lord" bothered him very much, and the Indians also had their own beliefs, which led to the conflict between the two beliefs, and many Indian believers did not know which god was more powerful.
In fact, for the Indians, the word 'Lord' is foreign, which contradicts their original beliefs, and is very detrimental to the spread of Chen Xu's faith.
In order to reverse this unfavorable environment, Peter privately changed Chen Xu's divine name, and he called Chen Xu the supreme god.
It turns out that the Indians have many myths and legends, which are passed down by word of mouth, but in all the myths and legends, there is a single supreme god who is "unknown and unseen".
This god is called the supreme god.
Peter found out about this, and immediately used this to secretly change the concept and secretly replaced Chen Xu with the supreme god of the Indians, so in the hearts of the Indians, Chen Xu is the lord, and the lord is the supreme god, and the supreme god is the most powerful.
Don't underestimate this impression, it is this impression that makes Chen Xu's faith spread very quickly, and in just over a month, more than a thousand devout believers have been gathered, and his name has also spread far and wide.
In some Indian tribes, the idea that the Most High God is the Lord and the Lord is the Most High God has influenced some tribal shamans, who prayed to the Most High God when they prayed.
Some people may think that this is a kind of fooling, but it works very well.
"I'll allow you to do that." Chen Xu is not very resistant to this.
In fact, in the era before Chen Xu's crossing, Catholicism had tampered with the name of the Lord.
In the East, God refers to the God who presides over the universe of heaven and earth, the supernatural supreme god, representing the heavens or equivalent to the heavens.
The term first appeared in the Book of Shang and the Book of Songs.
"Shangshu": "God blesses the people, is the king, and is the teacher, but it restrains God and favors the Quartet." ”
"Book of Songs": "The emperor is God, there is a great man under him, he monitors the Quartet, and seeks the people's mo." ”
Later, when the missionaries went to China to preach, they found that the ordinary people were very repulsive to the word "master", believing that "master" was the master and he was a slave, so he excluded the master.
In order to be able to spread the faith smoothly, Matteo Ricci changed the word "Lord" to God, replaced God with his own Lord, and stole the name of the supreme god of China and stole faith at the same time.
It is precisely because he understands this that Chen Xu has nothing to reproach himself for stealing the supreme god name of the Indians, and it is not the first time he has stolen it anyway.
In other words, he instructed believers to call themselves Lord, that is, to consciously blur the boundaries between themselves and Moses and Jesus, in a vain attempt to cover the faith of Jesus and Moses with their own faith, and finally achieve the goal of stealing their faith and replacing them as Lord.
"Later." Chen Xu asked again.
"Later, we were able to spread the faith, but we met ......." Peter went on to tell the story of what he had experienced.
It turned out that after they changed Chen Xu's god name and changed the Lord to the supreme god, the recruitment of believers developed extremely quickly, after all, Peter continuously exerted magical power to make these Indians fear the gods.
Soon, though, they were attacked.
It turned out that not all the sorcerers believed Peter's words, and some of the sorcerers of the tribe thought that Peter had blasphemed their faith, and in anger they ordered the leader of the tribe to lead the men and horses to attack.
In this way, the Mossigan tribe was attacked by the hostility of many tribes.
But Peter was not a vegetarian either, and after discovering this situation, he fought back decisively and took it upon himself to fight the wizards.
In the process, the Moxigan tribe lost some of its manpower, but also gathered more of its population, gradually growing into a medium tribe.
It's just that they've been in trouble lately.
A large Indian tribe suddenly attacked them, and the wizard of this large tribe was very powerful, and he fought Peter several times in a row, and the fight was inextricable.
"He is strong, but when the Lord comes, he will surely die." Peter said confidently.
"Take me, I'll pick him up." (To be continued.) )
