Chapter 62: Rumors and Harvests
After being reminded by Li Yu, the head of the Arias family soon announced the winner of the competition.
It's just that the impact of Adele's falsification of miracles has made the people who came to watch the competition not care much about the final result.
At one point, the angry crowd even tried to break through the militia and rushed to the priestess to atone for her sins.
However, these rabble were easily dispersed by the elite warriors of House Arias.
After that, Miss Rabbit simply pulled Adele into the castle, closed the door, and ignored the noise of the people outside.
In the face of the strong fortress made of stones, those bare-handed Silvermoon Church believers obviously had nothing to do, and they could only disperse after scolding for a while.
But the impact of this incident has only just begun.
Not surprisingly, the Silvermoon Church issued a nationwide proclamation at the first time, depriving Adele of her priesthood, and severely condemning the girl's behavior of deceiving believers in the name of performing miracles, and expelling her from the church permanently!
Later, the Great Temple of Alberto, which was involved in this matter, also came forward to clarify, saying that the holy coffin was still in the temple and had never been lent out, but it was undergoing maintenance recently, and it would take some time to pull it out again and display it in front of the faithful.
They also did not expect that there would be priests in the church who would take advantage of this gap to forge fake holy coffins for deception, which is undoubtedly extremely bad and cannot be forgiven!
Later, the Silvermoon Church distributed a large number of food and clothing to the common believers, and sent dozens of priests to the towns and villages in the western region to heal the sick there.
The rapid cutting and a series of heavy bleeding caused the Silvermoon Church to minimize the adverse effects of this competition in a short period of time, basically reversing the unfavorable public opinion, and shifting all the doubts about the church to Adele's personal condemnation.
With the rumors spread by the Silvermoon Church, soon the image of a priestess who was simple and kind on the surface, but was actually greedy for profit, only wanted to be famous, and did anything to climb up the ladder was deeply rooted in the hearts of all believers.
This terrible two-faced man had no faith at all, and even often slandered the goddess Picia in private.
However, she deceived everyone, not only those who believed in her, but also her teachers, friends, and even family, and she used their trust to pave the way for herself to become a priest.
It's just that she still couldn't hide the eyes of the goddess after all, and she showed her feet in this competition.
The Silvermoon Church even pinched its nose and gave Li Yu fifty golden lions as a reward for his decisive role in exposing the false face of the priestess.
And the bag of gold coins also amazed Miss Rabbit.
"If it weren't for living with Adele for a year, I guess I would think she was really a despicable and shameless person with no bottom line. Not only the teacher, but also so many companions and friends who had studied together at the temple before, all of them now came forward and testified that she was a bad person.
Even her family said that she was different from other children since she was a child, and she was very keen to watch the theater, and every time there was a theater troupe in the city, she was the last to leave...... It's really fake, can such words be used to prove that she is a liar? Yin Leiya looked incredulous.
"The right to speak is like this, whoever has the right to speak can customize the truth at will." Li Yu said, "Because for most ordinary people, there is neither the way nor the energy to distinguish the truth of a rumor." Besides, this path was chosen by herself from the beginning, didn't she? ”
"That's the case, but is it necessary to do it to this extent?" Miss Rabbit was still indignant, "Goddess Picia has always taught her followers to be honest, isn't it more important for the church to set an example for everyone in this regard?" ”
Li Yu glanced at the girl when she heard this.
The latter was looked at a little inexplicably and asked, "Am I not right about what I said?" ”
"I've been studying the history of the Westside lately. It is mentioned that when the angry lion Alexandran Rhodes conquered the West, the greatest help he received was the help of Philip Snowpaw, and the second was the Silvermoon Church, who spread a lot of evil deeds of the Enriquez family in the West.
"Don't you think that all the evil deeds in it are true, for example, there is one article that says that Joao, the head of the Enriquez family, likes to see beautiful women and likes to watch them dance on the flames, and every time there is a banquet, hundreds of girls will be found to perform this fire dance until they are roasted."
"Ah, I heard this story when I was a child, and it was quite famous in the entire Western Realm, and after listening to it, everyone thought that Joao was cruel and tyrannical and inhumane, why, could it be that this is also fake?"
"I don't know, but Joao also has a wicked deed of profligacy, it is rumored that he has to hold three banquets a day, and at this rate, he will kill at least three hundred girls a day, and he lived to be one hundred and sixty-four years old, do you think there are so many girls in the West to kill him?"
"Uh...... Well, you're right, it seems that the Silvermoon Church is really good at falsifying all kinds of news. Yin Leia admitted.
Since becoming the Lord of the Greens, the girl has experienced a lot of things, and she is much more mature than before.
It will no longer be as simple as when I was a child, feeling that the world is black and white.
She just couldn't help but feel sorry for her friend's fate.
But when her eyes fell on the note on the table that had just been delivered, the whole person became excited again.
"How's it going, are the statistics out?" Li Yu asked.
"Well, there are a total of 196 people who want to stay, and they will bring their families over in the future, and it is estimated that there should be nearly 400 more people in my territory this time.
"Wow, it's earned! Coupled with those people in the Wei Ting family, they will definitely be able to collect a lot more land rent in the coming year. ”
The girl pressed the note to her chest, her face full of happy longing.
Of course, she didn't forget whose credit it was all this, so she said to Li Yu again, "It's all thanks to your superb medical skills and your willingness to treat those patients that they want to stay." ”
This time, the Silver Moon Church made such a big battle, and gathered thousands of people in the green field at one time, of course, Li Yu had no reason to waste it.
Afterwards, he offered to provide free medical treatment for those who were not selected, on the condition that these people would stay in the green field after that.
After seeing his medical skills and those genuine miracles, many people were still moved and decided to stay, and some even expressed their willingness to join the Shuangxiu Sect, but more people still didn't want to turn their backs on Pithia like that.
Li Yu was not reluctant, because as long as these people were willing to stay, sooner or later they would all take refuge on Saturday.
There must be no place for the territory of the Sect of so many people, so Li Yu selected some people with professional skills and gave priority to absorbing them, and most of the remaining people were still left to Yin Leiya to settle.
So Miss Rabbit was hit by the golden pie that fell from the sky.
There were almost four hundred people in the territory at once, and she couldn't stop talking about it happily just by thinking about it now.
Li Yu then reminded, "Don't forget the things we agreed on before, first, you must guarantee the rights of the followers of the Shuangxiu Sect in the green field, and second, allow me or my people to preach to these newcomers. ”
