Chapter 533: I'm guilty
Looking at the domineering posture of the nineteen giant beasts in front of them, looking at the powerful figure of this Dao, the Taoist sect members were excited in their hearts, but after the Nine Dragons and the Tailed Beasts and Huskies gradually left, the excitement of the people gradually subsided.
Although they eliminated the invading enemy, although they defended their faith, guarded their companions, and defended the glory of the Dao Ancestor, they were not happy in their hearts now, or more accurately, they only had sorrow in their hearts, and a trace of dissatisfaction.
There were so many powerful holy beasts under the Dao Ancestor's throne, so why couldn't they come sooner? Why did they wait until there were so many casualties that even the Holy Land was almost destroyed?
At this moment, many people have such thoughts from the bottom of their hearts.
If Daozu hadn't made any moves, they would definitely not have any thoughts, they were absolutely willing to sacrifice their lives, but when so many people had died and their homes were almost razed to the ground, Daozu made a move, which inevitably made people feel a little surprised.
What's more, although the Dao Ancestor didn't do it himself, the Holy Beasts under the Dao Ancestor Throne summoned by the Pope were too powerful, and the power against the heavens made them fully capable of easily destroying all enemies.
In that case, why do you have to wait until the end to make a move, it can obviously reduce unnecessary casualties. Moreover, these sacrifices are their comrades-in-arms, their closest associates, and even their families.
In this way, although the curtain of the war came to an end temporarily, the entire battlefield was filled with a sad atmosphere.
Rod looked at the people in front of him quietly, he deeply felt the mood of everyone at this time, and he was also very aware of the current situation, this was not the first time, and it would not be the last.
This is something that all religions encounter, and if it is not resolved, this kind of mentality may disappear naturally, but it can also become an uncontrollable disaster.
After every major war, this kind of psychology almost always appears among the congregation, but to varying degrees, and in a war of this magnitude, most of the congregants inevitably develop this mentality.
However, the moment he returned to the continent of Ode, Rhodes already had a solution, which was the reward item for completing this mission.
After a while, I saw Rod slowly walking in front of everyone.
"Dao Ancestor is above, confused believers, are you complaining in your hearts, complaining that since Dao Ancestor has the ability to easily destroy the enemy, he has to wait until the last moment to send down divine punishment for these evil heresies, and complain about why Dao Ancestor is willing to summon the holy beasts under him at the end. ”
Rod raised his head slightly, was silent for a while, and then looked at everyone with a serious face, and said slowly.
Rod's words used the power of the soul, and although the voice was not loud, it reached everyone's ears.
Suddenly, everyone was stunned, many people lowered their heads in shame, obviously being hit by what Rhodes said, and many people were flushed, not ashamed, but a trace of resentment.
Of course, there are those who have already experienced battles large and small, and who have been able to understand and accept what is happening.
Everyone's reaction was to be seen by Rhodes, he could understand those shameful or indignant believers, in fact, he didn't feel good in his heart, Taoism was founded by him, and he suffered such a big blow, how could he not be angry.
However, he saw more than everyone else and saw it clearly.
Sure enough, at this time, many people's hearts were filled with confusion and incomprehension, and they couldn't understand why Dao Ancestor allowed the enemy to attack our holy land and slaughter our companions. ”
Rod slowly walked in front of everyone and said,
"Don't talk about you, even I couldn't understand at first, I was trapped in another time and space by the enemy at that time, I don't understand why Dao Ancestor didn't use great power to bring me back to the church, so that I can also fight with you!"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked, as the Pope of Taoism, Rhodes should be the most loyal believer of Daozu, there is no one, but he actually questioned Daozu, is this crazy!?
"Your Excellency, ...... you"
Arudiba and the others on the side were uneasy, and quickly got up and wanted to say something, but they didn't know what to say.
"Don't be surprised, you may think that I am disrespectful to Dao Ancestor like this, but this is not the case. ”
Rod smiled faintly, and then said,
"Dao Ancestor is above, he is merciful, the great Dao Ancestor will not be angry with believers for questioning him, he kindly dialed me, everything he did was to save us. ”
Save us?
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and most of them looked at each other, their eyes full of doubts and puzzles.
"I once questioned Dao Ancestor, but the great one just asked me such a sentence. ”
Rod glanced at everyone, and slowly explained to everyone,
"Son, did you ever think before I helped you, that you were about to lose your soul. ”
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned, nine out of ten people were at a loss, and only a very small number of smart people realized something, but they couldn't grasp it for a while.
It was just one sentence that I finally understood everything. ”
Rod smiled and continued,
"Actually, our pace has gradually drifted away from what Dao Ancestor wants to see. ”
Hearing this, the crowd fell silent, and they began to ponder Rod's words without saying a word.
"Daozu asked me to be his spokesperson and establish faith in the mortal world, so that the world can have a spiritual sustenance, and also to let the world regain its proper virtues! ”
Seeing that everyone seemed to have realized something, Rod said slowly,
"Once Daozu left the mortal world, he just wanted the world to no longer rely on the power of the gods, but to control their own destiny through themselves, to create their own future, but now the ignorant world uses their own delusions to figure out the will of the gods, and creates false beliefs for personal gain, and even believes in evil gods, which betrays the original intention of the Daozu to stay away from the mortal world, so the Daozu returns. ”
As he spoke, Rod raised his head slightly, he looked at the ethereal sky, bowed reverently, and continued,
"Dao Ancestor asked me to create a true belief in the gods in his place, to reshape this world that has gone in the wrong direction, of course, the reason why the omnipotent Dao Ancestor wants me, a mortal, to be the spokesperson is also to let us find the right path again. All it does is guide us to make choices. ”
As Rod's words gradually spread, everyone's faces showed a hint of enlightenment, and they all saluted respectfully towards the sky, showing supreme respect to Dao Ancestor.
But the next moment, a trace of shame appeared on Rod's face, and he said in a deep voice,
"I'm guilty. ”
