"Incomparable..."Zhang Lisheng looked at the ragged businesswoman and smiled and said, "Yaji, it seems that the difficult life has not erased your exaggerated attitude as a businessman, let's say, what is the good news?"

"I have brought a man to you, a man who will understand that my words are not an exaggeration when you see them," replied Jagi, looking directly at the god Wu Li, "but before you see him, I hope you will grant me one condition."

If this man is really of great use to you, then I hope you will send a chief priest to save my father. ”

"Your father, what's wrong with him?"

"After you were exempted from all forced labor, my father and mother returned to Heinheimmann, and eight days ago while farming in the countryside a wagon carrying fertilizer broke his legs..."

"Wait, how do you know that the priests who believe in me can heal their wounds?"

"It's no secret that Your Majesty, the land priests who patrol the cities often display the 'magic of life' you have bestowed upon you, proclaiming your powers.

But my father's injuries were too severe for ordinary priests to treat, and none of the land-dwellers had yet appeared. The businesswoman's words were still unfinished, but Zhang Lisheng had fully understood what she meant, and said with a strange expression: "It seems that the minds of land people are indeed more flexible.

Well, Jagi, just because you have told me useful news, whether or not it will be useful to me whether or not you bring someone in the future, I will send a chief priest to heal your father's wounds. ”

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. Yaki was stunned. Surprised and tearful, he said to the butler on the side, "Steward Saxney, bring Dean Tuan in." ”

"Yes, miss. Sackney bowed and retreated as if the owner of the manor was still Yaji, and Zhang Lisheng's pupils couldn't help shrinking when he heard the words 'Lord Bishop', and he opened his mouth but didn't speak.

After a while, the butler, dressed in a black straight dress, re-entered the living room with a tall, thin old man dressed in a gray linen robe, and before he could speak, the old man stepped forward and reverently drew an 'L' on his chest. knelt down in front of Zhang Lisheng.

In an instant. The young man miraculously felt the pious faith contributed by the gray-robed old man under his feet.

Stunned for a while, Zhang Lisheng waved his hand and motioned for everyone in the living room to stand back and wait until there was no one else around. The young man looked down at his feet and smiled. Said: "Mortal." It seems that you have mastered a shortcut to gain power by deception. ”

"Thank you, thank you for answering one of the two questions that have plagued me for half my life.

It turns out that the gods can really feel whether the believer is religious or not, and the so-called 'faith' is actually just a state of mind. It is entirely possible to imitate techniques such as self-hypnosis. The old man lowered his white-haired head and asked respectfully without raising his head, "Then can you tell me the answer to another riddle in my heart?"

Does the strength of the mana bestowed by the gods on the priests depend on the degree of piety or the ability to spread the faith?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly he laughed, "This is really a good question, I don't know what other gods do in the Dao, but I am very realistic when I am a mortal, so I will give him the corresponding amount of mana power and status according to the size of the sacrifice offering." ”

"If that's the case, I think you've found your 'surrogate' in the 'Green Leaf Continent', Your Majesty the Great Wu Li. The old man crouched on the ground, and said in a gentle voice with an indescribable hoarse charm.

"You mean yourself, but you don't even look like a priest, mortal. The young man said with a smile.

"The personalities of people are strange, and the priests are naturally different, and the gods also have joys, sorrows, desires, and desires, and in the myths and legends of the Gaian world, there are actually not many priests who dare to negotiate deals with the gods, Your Majesty. ”

"Mortal, I like smart people, but only if he knows how to advance and retreat, you are smart but too arrogant. Zhang Lisheng's face changed and he said gloomily.

Faced with the wrath of the gods, the old man said without fear, "If I can summon for you at least five hundred priests with the title of 'Bo Scholar' in three days, and multiply that number tenfold in ten days."

And to erase the traces of other gods in the land of your faith in three years, do you still think I am too arrogant?"

Looking at the old man at his feet, Zhang Lisheng was stunned for the third time, and after a long time, he muttered: "Oh, I have been thinking about coercing those nobles to surrender, but I forgot that there is another 'rich resource' to fight for, what a hell..."

"Yes, Your Majesty," the old man said in a self-deprecating tone, "Compared to the nobles who have a territory and inherit family honors for several generations or even dozens of generations, and are born with amazing power and power, but also bear heavy responsibilities for this, we priests, especially ascetic priests, have at least eight layers of commoner families and orphans.

After all, only the 'bitter children' can serve those gods who have long been asleep or have long since sunk more devoutly, and it would be a mistake not to include us in your command. ”

"Tuan, I think that apart from mortals like you, who actually have no fear of the gods and dare to be a deception of faith, the vast majority of pagan clergymen may have a harder time converting to my faith than the nobles, after all, the conversion of those who serve the gods is a sin that will inevitably lead to hell after death. ”

"Your Majesty, though I do not fear the gods, I do fear the power of power, and how can a god who could not punish me in my lifetime have the power to torment my soul. Facing the words of Wu Li's heart-wrenching, the old man said in a deep voice.

The fourth time he was stunned for a while, Zhang Lisheng exclaimed: "I have never met a person who surprised me one after another when we met for the first time.

Congratulations, Tuan, for your ambition and audacity have won my admiration, stand up and tell me how you will inspire five thousand learned priests for you in ten days, and erase the traces of other gods in the land of faith in three years?"

"Yes, great deity. Tuan slowly stood up, took a deep breath, and gradually said excitedly: "Your Majesty, most of your priests of good gods have compassion for all sentient beings. It is not difficult to have me as an example to make them sacrifice themselves and convert to your priesthood in order to gain the power to protect the common people.

As for erasing the traces of other gods, it is much more troublesome, and it can only be done through subtle indoctrination, well, your simple prayer is a great help in the expansion of faith, especially for the foolish and toiling poor, but the same simple religious ritual is not advisable.

Because for the general public. Religious ceremonies are more than just offering faith to the gods. It also contains a kind of spiritual comfort and communication...

In any case, a religion must have a fundamental holy text, and without this book, religion is like a tall building without foundation...

As long as there are more than three human beings living together, there will inevitably be a struggle, and the struggle to eliminate the Hellfire and the Terrestrial is difficult to accomplish by forced kneading. The only way is to channel the inter-ethnic struggle to other areas. For example, differences in beliefs..."

Listen to the old man talking. More and more off-topic narration, Zhang Lisheng's face changed uncertainly, until Tu'an finished speaking, he was still in deep thought.

Time passes slowly. Unconsciously, dozens of minutes passed, and the young man finally came back to his senses, "I have indeed recently found that my belief system is too simple, and I have had some ideas for improvement, such as letting some clergy take on the responsibility of relieving the distress of believers..."

Zhang Lisheng described the three most successful religions on the earth, Catholicism, Allah, and Buddhism, and said with a smile: "There are many contradictions in my ideas, and I have never clarified the clue, so there is no way to improve 'faith'..."

Hearing the unfinished meaning of the words of the god Li Sheng, Tu An respectfully prostrated himself on the ground again, "Your Majesty Wu Li, with these wonderful ideas of yours, I promise that I will be able to establish a religion that will satisfy you within a year..."

"Can you tell me before that what I want my religion to look like?" the young man asked solemnly, interrupting the old man.

"In the first place, there is only one object of faith in the sect, and that is you;

Second, the divine right must be completely integrated with the earthly dominion in everything, that is, the government is divinely granted;

Also, the clergy must replace the nobility as the foundation of the entire civilization...", Tuan replied without hesitation.

"Looks like I've met another genius. Zhang Lisheng showed a satisfied smile on his face, raised his hands, and his body ignited with dirty red, earth yellow, and water blue flames in the air, transforming into debut light, wrapping around the old man's body, "Tu'an, I will give you the fifth level, that is, the chief priest's ability to cast spells.

And all the territories occupied by the original Catamane city-state, no, the entire Wuli tribe on the continent as your parish, can be regarded as an advance payment to you.

Go and fulfill your ambitions, I am the most fair deity, and you will reap as much as you give, but if you are only ashamed to speak today, you will soon know what cruel retribution will be received for angering a god!"

"Great You, I will never let you down. The goal was achieved, and the adventure of gambling with his life paid off satisfactorily, and Tuan finally showed an ecstatic expression on his face, and said sincerely.

"Good. Zhang Lisheng nodded noncommittally, and casually made a water bell in the void to ring, and after a while, Ya Ji and the housekeepers and servants returned to the living room.

"Jachimie, Tuan has been converted to my faith and has become a chief priest, and now I will let him save your father. ”

"This, Lord Tuan, you, can you really save my father?" the businesswoman blurted out in surprise when she heard that she looked at the old man who had not changed her appearance in the slightest.

"Miss Yaji, the familiarity of the past has covered your eyes and made you see the greatness of your majesty," the old man showed a compassionate and benevolent smile on his face, his hand drew an 'L' on his chest, and a strip of azure water suddenly flashed around his body, coiling back and forth, suddenly adding a bit of holiness and mystery, "The power of the gods is omnipotent, as long as you give, you can be redeemed."
