"Why hasn't Guo Gongzi come here today?"

On the platform of Niangniang Temple, Wang Da Lama asked casually while holding a play book and guiding Xiao Rangna to perform.

"I don't know, Xiao Zhu's blacksmith shop opened yesterday, and I don't think he went." Jeanne said: "It's strange, I see that Huan Taiji also went, and it was quite lively." They made a hammer and struck iron there, wasn't that what he did? ”

"Air hammer?" Grand Lama Wang felt that he should be very familiar with the Chinese language, but after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't know what this word meant.

"I don't understand either, I heard that it's the principle of Brother Steam." Jeanne herself couldn't tell: "It's probably just boiling water, making the copper stopper move up and down, and then beating it back and forth with the iron hammer." ”

As she spoke, she stretched out her fingers and tried to figure out the movement.

Grand Lama Wang didn't understand machinery in the first place, and when he heard her say this, he was even more confused.

"Forget it, he's always been secretive." After thinking about it, Grand Lama Wang felt that it didn't matter: "Come on, come on, continue rehearsals." Let's bring the flag and hang the signboard this time. ”

As he spoke, he took out a bunch of things from the prop box.

Jeanne had nothing to do, so she picked up the cake from the temple next to her, took two more bites, and watched Wang Da Lama put two flags with the words "Holy Light Pudu" and "Fengtian Xingyi" behind little Jeanna.

Then he took out another canvas and gestured at it.

"What's so good about this......"

"You put all that mess on her body, don't you have the point to be able to highlight it?" Lady Jeanne couldn't stand it anymore: "Didn't you say that it should be easy to understand." Even if the words are simple, there are too many piles. ”

"That's okay, this is just a poster in the venue, so I won't hang it on my body." Grand Lama Wang thought about it and agreed.

He hung the canvas on the banner shelf and took two steps back: "Well, that's not bad either. ”

Jeanne also took a look curiously, and saw that the figure in the center of the picture was exactly what the statue of Brother Tian in the Niangniang Temple looked like: he had black hair, wore a robe, smiled all over his face, and put on a lunge and punch posture, which looked very happy at first glance.

Behind Brother Tian, the Virgin lifted her left leg and raised her right hand, with a resolute face. The raised right hand held a long bamboo pole, and a red lantern hung at the end of the bamboo pole, shining in front of Brother Tian.

On the opposite side of Brother Tian, a yellow-haired man with thief eyebrows and rat eyes fell to the ground, propping himself up, bleeding from his nose, and his crown fell to the ground, looking very embarrassed.

And on the heads of the three people, there are two lines of big letters:

Men practice boxing, and women shine at the red light.

Kill a man, Brother Tian laughed.

"What is this......" Jeanne always felt that this was another idea that she had never imagined.

"That's what it sounds like. Brother Tian practiced boxing, and Our Lady played the lamp. Grand Lama Wang explained: "On our side, almost all ordinary religious members have to join the army, so there has always been a tradition of martial arts. Women are also engaged in patrol and guard work, and the lantern is a tool commonly used by the people to make signs and send signals, and in order to distinguish them, they generally use Roman red. ”

"Our civil nuns are very fond of this kind of lantern, and some of the congregations simply use it as a symbol. The meaning of this painting is to call on everyone, both men and women, to participate, practice martial arts, and fight against barbarians. Previously, we tried this kind of propaganda against Alemanni in the northwest, and it worked well. ”

"Aren't the locals themselves barbarians?" Jeanne asked, glancing at her blonde braids.

"People don't care so much. As long as you take him to fight the lord and the oppressive bishop, they will do it with you. The Great Lama said, "We feel that this is very much in line with the church's purpose of emphasizing benevolence and righteousness, so we use it in this way." ”

"That's ......"

"I've been there when I've been around the dioceses before. Some places were originally very wealthy, but they have been vigorously looted by the lords over the years, and the people have lost their lives. Lama Wang shook his head and said, "Many of the locals in Hungary and Bohemia are very disgusted with the nobles from the German region, so there are many people who respond to us and gather people to practice boxing. ”

"Don't underestimate them. These villagers have an organization, and after practicing our exercises, their combat effectiveness is already good. Bohemian boxers can kill a few German lords every three or five times. If this continues, I see what they plan to do. ”

As he spoke, Jeanne began to practice running laps with the flag on her back, and sat down next to her to rest for the time being. Seeing that Jeanne was still eating, he also reached out and took out a cake from the wooden lunch box next to him and took a bite.

"This time we changed the seasoning, it's delicious, right?" He said smugly.

"Yes. But you're still studying cooking. Jeanne was a little surprised.

"It is a tradition of the Church of Rome to give bread to the people." Grand Lama Wang nodded: "In the early years, when the church was just formed, it was responsible for the distribution of these benefits, so it has been maintained like this. Is the church meant to be convenient for everyone? In the past, there was a shortage of iron pots, but now that we have the conditions, we can indeed study cooking. ”

"That's right." Jeanne nodded, and looked at the cake in her hand again: "By the way, your rituals are not the same as the orthodox ones, why do you also eat fermented cakes?" ”

"Everyone thinks this is delicious." Wang Da Lama said.

Jeanne thought for a moment, and felt that she shouldn't be entangled with these people.

"Oh, the ancients said it well. ' The king takes the people as the sky, and the people take food as the sky'. The Great Lama Wang sighed with emotion: "Don't underestimate this food. Whether the sacrament is good or not directly determines the effectiveness of the mission. ”

"Well......" Although Jeanne didn't understand the aphorism too much, she was used to their way of speaking, nodded in response, and continued to eat.

"Don't look at those Greek priests, they all like to talk to people about all kinds of scriptures, but our church was able to rise back then, and it really didn't rely on the scriptures themselves." Grand Lama Wang recalled the church's past experience: "Ordinary people, life is not easy, how can they bother to study this doctrinal difference? As long as there is basic logic and can be roughly self-consistent, they don't care much. The point is, why should people listen to you. The fact that we eat better here is one of the most useful reasons. ”

That's what it meant. I thought it was theological. Saying this, Jeanne felt that these people's ideas seemed to make sense.

"For any theological reason, the difference between the loaves is nothing more than the discouragement of the Greeks and the Roman bishops." Wang Da Lama said nonchalantly: "Actually, you can eat anything, how can you be so exquisite." ”

"My hometown, it's quite exquisite." Jeanne thought for a moment and told him, "I heard that this thing represents the physical body of Brother Tian, and its meaning is very important. ”

"This is all the fallacy of the country priests." Grand Lama Wang looked disdainful: "Does he believe in Brother Tian, or does he have an enmity with Brother Tian?" What does he want to do, Zhuangzhi hungry for heavenly brother meat? How can there be such a thing? ”

"Uh...... It's really weird when you say that. But everyone seems to say the same...... "Jeanne thought about it, and found that she didn't understand it, so she simply shook her head and didn't think about it."

"I don't know why, but people do like to dwell on these questions. Just the two people that Xiao Zhu brought last time, you know, right? Their sect seems to have finally torn its face with the Roman side because of the problem of drinking during the ceremony. ”

"Because that's just an excuse." The Great Lama Wang looked like an old god was there, and explained to her: "On our side, the ritual does not use the Holy Grail and wine at all, don't you see that the congregation is also very happy?" Wine shouldn't have been used so often. At most, it is not until the New Year's festival that the ancestors are sacrificed with wine. ”

"That's ......" Jeanne nodded: "But how did the Greeks accept your ancestor worship in the first place?" ”

"The Greeks also have ancestors, how can they not accept it." Wang Da Lama's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "Filial piety is one of the most basic human ethics, and it is the same all over the world. You look at all dynasties, which one does not encourage filial piety? Even the Jin Dynasty can't find any other reason, and it has to be blown to rule the world with filial piety. ”

"Filial piety to ancestors is also a matter of course. Brother Heavenly still needs to be filial to the Heavenly Father, how can ordinary believers not be filial to their ancestors? ”

"Hug Puzi" said that the key to cultivation lies in the six words of loyalty, filial piety, harmony, obedience, benevolence and righteousness. Starting from these most basic qualities, and constantly cultivating the body and mind, can you conform to the Great Dao and be called an immortal—according to the words here, you will become a saint. The ancestors are not respectful, which is obviously contrary to the principles of heaven and certainly not in accordance with the doctrine. ”

At that time, there were indeed a small number of more extreme cult fanatics who insisted on rebelling against human morality. They also say that their kind of fallacy is the way to worship the Father, but instead slanders us for not respecting the Father. The Great Lama Wang rebuked: "Joke, can the gods still take the lead in being disloyal and unfilial?" ”

This must be a demon with ulterior motives, demagoguing public opinion and distorting the truth in the scriptures. It's also very simple to puncture them - think about it, a person who doesn't even respect his ancestors can still respect the Father? ”

Therefore, Yin Daochang borrowed military armor from the Great Khan at that time, and took his disciples and followers to destroy mountains and temples everywhere, destroy cult dens, and order believers to change their ways and return to righteousness. After a lot of hard work, this heresy finally disappeared. ”

"This ...... Very convincing indeed. Jeanne was speechless.

"Our church has developed so far, and it is not just a matter of saying a few words." Grand Lama Wang sighed with emotion: "When you do many things, you will know all kinds of big and small problems in them, and you will know how difficult it is to actually do them compared to theories and doctrinal regulations. ”

"That's why I've always supported Guo Gongzi, even if I can't show all the miracles he said for the time being, it's enough. Like him, he who does not bother with the words of the scriptures, but does things in a down-to-earth manner, is the one who does practical things. ”

"When you say that, I think we have to check it out." Jeanne said, finished eating the cake in three or two, and stood up: "You go on, I'll see if he has any surprises." ”

Grand Lama Wang nodded, indicating that she was free to do so.

"I have a bad feeling when I say that." Little Jeanne, who had a flag behind her, also came over and said with a sad face: "Then it's troublesome sister." ”
