Chapter 24 Q&A
Not only Quintus, but also the priests of other villages were in the same dilemma during this time.
Despite their efforts to instill the love of the goddess and the hypocrisy of Saturday in their followers, a large number of villagers were still attracted when the Shuangxiu religion began to preach again.
Among them were not only those who had been swinging before, but also many of the devout followers of Pisia.
Now they have all betrayed the Goddess.
No matter how hard Quintus and the others tried to dissuade them, those villagers were still obsessed and determined to listen to the monks of the Shuangxiu Sect talk about their "land god kingdom".
The priests of the Silver Moon Church almost hugged the thighs of the believers and said don't go, but unfortunately it had little effect, and even some old people with inconvenient legs and feet were on crutches, supported by others, and trembling to listen to the sermons of the Shuangxiu Church.
Quintus was worried that something would happen to them halfway through.
Some young and vigorous priests, seeing that their words were useless, were forced to move out such things as condemnation and divine punishment to intimidate the villagers.
However, it also had some effect, and there were fewer people in their village who went to listen to the Shuangxiu missionary.
But experienced and far-sighted priests like Quintus knew that this was just a drink to quench their thirst, for it was not one or two villagers who were now running to listen.
Once those who were frightened by the divine punishment found that those who had gone to the lecture had nothing to do, the fear of Picia in their hearts would soon disappear, and the more serious faith would collapse with it.
So it's not advisable.
But Quintus didn't want to just throw in the towel, and if it was a contest of eloquence and he was beaten in a debate, then he had nothing to say.
But what is this now, the Shuangxiu Church relies on the almost tricky means of giving small gifts to attract people to listen to their preaching, such a thing simply refreshes Quintus's cognition, and it is too despicable and too bottomless!
For Quintus, preaching should be a sacred and pure thing.
It is the enlightenment of spirituality, the intersection of hearts and minds, not picking up leaks in the market, and swarming to where there is cheapness.
Quintus wanted to stand up and ask Li Yu, if he spent money to buy believers, he was not afraid that one day he would run out of money, did these believers run away?
People who gather together for the sake of profit can't be reliable no matter how you think about it, right?
However, Quintus also had to admit that at least for now, it seems that Li Yu's method is quite effective.
Now it seems that it is almost impossible to stop those villagers from listening to the sermons of the Shuangxiu Church
Quintus could only settle for the next best thing, and told the villagers that it was okay to go, but not to listen to the nonsense of the Hughes, and it was better to come back as soon as he got his things.
In this way, you can still maintain your loyalty to Picia.
As soon as he said this, the villagers in the village were almost moved to tears, but they didn't expect the goddess to be so merciful that it didn't matter if they went to participate in the preaching activities held by the pagan religion, their hearts still belonged to Picia!
Coupled with the super personal charm of the priest of Quintus, there are still many villagers who are willing to listen to his arrangement.
The original unsolvable contradiction seems to have been perfectly resolved.
Quintus even took the initiative to comfort those villagers who felt guilty, telling them that every time they took an extra thing, they would lose an extra amount of money and further weaken the power of those infidels, so the villagers also suddenly realized.
I didn't betray the goddess, but I was protecting the goddess, and I fought the enemy for the goddess through white prostitution, so they all became more enthusiastic!
However, the Shuangxiu Church soon discovered this loophole and moved the distribution of things to the end of the sermon.
However, Quintus was prepared, and with a wave of his hand he told the villagers to stay until the sermon was over and come back, but it was still the old rule that he only prostituted gifts for nothing and did not listen to the lectures.
You can plug your ears with strips of cloth when the Hughes of the Shuangxiu Church are preaching, so that as long as you sit until the end of the sermon, you can still receive the things distributed by the Shuangxiu Church.
When the villagers heard this, they also applauded, and even brought villagers from other villages to follow suit.
But how could these simple aborigines on the continent of Brattis win Li Yu as a modern person in terms of small actions in the classroom.
After realizing that someone had not listened well, Li Yu changed the rules for distributing eggs again.
At the end of each sermon, the speaker is required to answer three very simple basic questions in order to receive the day's gift.
Not only that, Li Yu also added a question-and-answer session to the sermon, and after explaining a piece of teaching, the missionary monks would randomly select villagers who came to listen to the lecture to ask questions.
If the villager can answer this question, then they will receive an additional gift, and the value of the gift is higher than that of a normal gift.
When the Hughes of the Church of Strait are preaching, no one will plug their ears anymore.
Everyone is attentive and engrossed, for fear of missing a word, which is better than the classroom learning atmosphere of 985.
Quintus really couldn't hold back now, and he couldn't even find an excuse to deceive himself.
Because he found that after the villagers came back, they would make up for each other's lessons, check and fill in the gaps, and review what they had heard today, in case they couldn't answer the questions when they were called the next time.
That is, the literacy rate on the continent of Brattis is too low, otherwise these villagers would not be able to keep their study notes in order.
Quintus really felt powerless at this time, so he could only throw this problem back to the church.
In fact, the matter of Li Yu pulling people's heads by distributing eggs reached the ears of the seven high priests from the first day, and their reactions were similar to Quintus's, and they were all stunned.
The high priest of Cocuon was furious on the spot, angrily accusing Li Yu of being despicable and shameless, he was not a prophet at all, but a profiteer with a copper smell, and he should be hanged!
But scolding Li Yushuang for returning to Shuang can't solve any problems, especially now that everyone in the green field is busy listening to the sermons of the Shuangxiu Sect, if this continues, there will be fewer and fewer believers in Pisia.
Moreover, the power of this trick is too strong, and since it works in Lvye, it will certainly work in other places.
So when the high priest of Kircuon had finished scolding, someone proposed, "Why don't we also send something to the believers?" If you really want to compare wealth, the Shuangxiu Sect can't compare to us at all. ”
But when his words fell, the hall fell silent.
After a moment, High Priest Reeves was the first to speak, "No, there is no precedent for the church to do so. ”
High Priest Gonaia also chimed in, "If we can't make such a bad head, it will cultivate greed in the hearts of believers, and if we only give it to believers in the green field, what will believers in other places think?" Everyone's words are unrealistic. ”
