Chapter 400: Dragon Worship (1/3)
The trees in the mountains tremble in the crisp wind after the summer rains, and their foliage sways noisily.
The sun paved the cobblestone avenue, and Ian led the camel beast and carried his luggage to say goodbye to Sister Reflection at the door of the Platinum workshop. Steward Moda is being questioned at Huaiguang Church'
Of course, this is also a kind of protection, and all in all, it is time for the tired old man to go to sleep. Although after waking up from a dream, the world is still this world. But at the very least, he should rest at this time.
"Thank you for your assistance." Sister Yingguang bowed her head to Ian and saluted, "If it weren't for your help, it might have been a long time before I could find out the truth about the disappearance that happened around Ryan Territory. "
"Actually, you've found the thread of the truth, and I
It doesn't matter. Ian raised his eyebrows, put on his helmet, and replied earnestly, "I'm just doing it." "
To be honest, he thanked Sister Reflection for her co-ordination for her cooperation in showing a corroded sample of glow grass from the Flying Flame Land.
In this way, the water is muddyed. Whatever the truth, all subsequent investigators had to face a question. Is it Baron Ryan who is in touch with Flameland, or is the 'Gnostic' behind him colluding with Flameland?
The latter can't be hammered, and the former is derived from points...... But because the timing was so coincidental, and because Flying Flame Land had really been engaged in biological warfare recently, it couldn't be said that there was no such thing. In any case, no matter which side it is, the investigation will go astray. What's more, no matter which side is, they all have their own reasons for not wanting to find out the truth.
Especially the Gnostic Academy, one _ one only they know, the deputy
It is impossible for the section chief to die with Baron Ryan, but they are really the ones behind this incident, so they definitely dare not jump out to defend themselves. "Being willing to go with the flow is the biggest help. It always has been. "
The dragon girl smiled slightly, and then sighed softly: "It's just a pity, we can only end up after the fact, the tragedy has already happened, and the dead cannot be recovered." "Huaiguang Sect Shu knows how to do anything, can't you do anything?" Ian had now turned to the camel, which meekly shook its head and let the boy stroke its furry head. Touching the head of the camel beast, he whispered; "I also know an old man from the Huaiguang Church....... I have asked him many things, but I have never asked this question."
"Because I know that they have done much, much....even more than they should be responsible for, worthy of anyone in this world."
"It's just that now, I still can't help but want to ask......." Ian raised his head and stared at the nun in front of him: "Huaiguang, are you really not going to do it?" Ian had something to say in his words, and he knew he was asking no one.
Although Sister Yingguang is in good strength, she is obviously not a high-ranking person in Huaiguang, nor is she a real priest, and she can't answer her own questions.
However, she was emotional. Feeling that the Huaiguang Church can only be finished afterwards, this makes Ian curious...... I wonder how the Huaiguang Church perceives the consistent course of action of its organization.
So, just ask. Faced with this question, Yingguang's smile retracted. Her brow furrowed slightly, and even the light of the dragon's horns above her head slowly dimmed.
The dragon girl said slowly, "... I do not know. "
She was a little reluctant and at a loss: "I also asked my teacher this question, but she said that I am not a real priest and I will not understand. "
"Knight, as strange as it sounds, a few years ago I was just a shepherdesss in the villages of the Companion Spirit People around the Huaiguang Sacred Mountain in the north,...... I also plant 10 beans and carrots. Speaking of this, the dragon girl looked at her with some nostalgia
There are a lot of calluses on the hands: "It's hard, but it's a peaceful life." There are no wars, no cults, no monsters, and no oppression from lords, and we are self-reliant. "
"At the time, I didn't think so, but after going out and traveling for so many years, I finally understood why the old people in the village said that our life was like a paradise."
Raising her head, Sister Reflection and Ian looked at each other: "The priesthood of the Light are good people. "
"They don't collect taxes, they don't care about things, they don't set rules, they just pay the surrounding monsters regularly as a reward and trade some with us
Food, at most, mediate between several villages, because the conflict over the water source does not stop by brute force, but opens up another source of water, so that the village naturally stops the dispute. "
"One day, when I was trading potatoes with my family, the priest who led the team said that there was innate potential in my blood, but if I didn't practice and let it burn wantonly, it would hurt both others and myself, so he asked me if I would like to become an ascendant with a light of light, this is the glory of the whole village, and it is also my luck, how can I refuse to become a monk of Huaiguang?"
"So I had a teacher, and she took me and the other disciples on a tour and eventually arranged for me a position in Nauman, where I was required to study in all directions."
At this point, Yingguang's tone became firm.
She raised her head and said seriously, "Forgive me, knight, I have said a lot of tedious things........... but what I want to tell you is that Huaiguang does not care about everything. "
"In addition to taking the initiative to quell those great calamities,
It will also deal with the problems that the non-human 'brings. "
"If you say that the monsters, aliens, or the spirits of the cult of the sacrifice spirits, it is like this time, the local church believes that the disappearance case was committed by the local cult in Nanling, plus there are believers
Pray, that's why I went out. "
"It's just, like Baron Ryan brutalizing his people, this kind of 'human thing... Huaiguang's approach is probably to deal with the problem of water in my hometown, trying to open up another source of water, so that the strife and oppression will naturally stop. "
"This is what I understand as the light," just as the sun makes people take off their thick armor and garments, and no longer guard against one another; But the cold wind cannot, and the act of forcibly stripping it off will make people more vigilant. "It's just. . . ….
Speaking of this, Sister Yingguang sighed deeply: "The affairs of human beings are not as simple as the water source, and the sun and the cold wind cannot do anything....... most of the time, we are
Powerless. "I'm sorry, I may not be able to tell what I think, but that's pretty much it. I don't think Huaiguang's handling is wrong, it's just that it may ,...... Not the best. "
"Nope."
Ian, who was listening quietly, spoke, and he flatly denied Sister Reflection's statement: "That's a good point, it's very important, I already have a rough understanding. "
The young man's eyes were lowered, and he was somewhat enlightened, and he said in his heart: "Anarchist? Or is it the most extreme pastoral order of collective anarchy' that denies authority, surrenders everything to man himself, and leaves everything to nature?"
"Where are these crazy people....... Ian is helpless in his heart;" Do you still do this in a world with sublimators? No, no, no, I'm mistaken, it's because there are sublimators who want to do this, because everybody is extremely productive....... But isn't Huaiguang an authority in itself?" Although it is somewhat one-sided, according to Yingguang, the north is bosom
In the vicinity of Guangsheng Mountain, there are no towns, only villages gathered according to ethnicity.
The villages cultivated their own water, took care of their own water, traded their necessities with each other, and there was no emperor, no state official, no governor or any ruler, and none of them even had a nominal chief.
Whether this kind of flat society is the society that Huaiguang wants to build, or whether they are unwilling to manage too much, so the results of laissez-faire can be seen in their tendencies.
One by one, Huaiguang is unwilling to intervene in the problems of human society, but keeps himself outside of human society and maintains an 'independent' perspective. What is anarchy, what is not interfering, what is only dealing with disasters and not intervening in society. It's all minutiae.
In Ian's view, this independent perspective may be the real key.
1_1 is the requirement of the Book of Prophecy? Or is it a special condition for psionic energy? As a fellow prophet, Ian felt that he probably understood.....
Perhaps, the Huaiguang Church's 'Book of Prophecy' that predicts all calamities is ..... a trigger.
It is precisely because we are independent of human beings that we can see all the future of human beings. "Thank you very much." Recording the thoughts in his mind in the silver chip, the boy smiled, his voice shining through his helmet: "Then I hope there will be a day of goodbye." "And so it is."
Sister Yingguang nodded, and she suddenly remembered something: "By the way, ride ten, if your next destination is Nau City, please try to slow down your trip as much as possible." "
"The city of Nauman is now under martial law, according to my senior brother and
According to the sword-wielding executor, there is a very big trouble in the city, the archbishop of Tianyan has closed his door, and the Marquis of Patton seems to have been assassinated because of this, but it seems to be because of the Flying Flame Land, but it may also be because of Canaan Moore, maybe it is still a cult of worshipping dragons, and the current rumors are extremely chaotic, and the capital of Nanling has become a pot of porridge. Speaking of this, she couldn't help but sigh: "Anyway, it's best not to go there so early." "
"Senior brother? Flamelands? Anything else?" Ian was ready to go, but stopped when he heard that.
"With all due respect," he wondered, "I was a little confused just now, so isn't the executor of the ransom, uh, a lady?" Yingguang euphemistically explained: "But she likes to be called senior brother... It could be.. Hmm, her personal fetishes?" I see. Ian sighed: "Everyone has their own ambitions.... Thank you, Sister Yingguang. "It's just a heartfelt statement."
With that, Ian rode away on the camel, and Sister Reflection watched the camel walk away. She then turned around and prepared to return to the Church for the next handover with the Imperial Truth House and the members of the Noble Court.
And Ian's expression under the helmet gradually became serious after leaving the distance for a while. "Cult ......of the Dragon," he muttered, "Linda's prophecy ......," "the prophecy that changed because of me?"
Personal signature: Why can't I sleep..... Use props.
