Chapter 21: The Church of Abundance
Chapter 21: The Church of Abundance (Please Recommend)
"There's something wrong with that national teacher."
As soon as Ma Xiaotao returned to her residence, she said this to Dai Yuheng with a serious expression.
The development of the matter was somewhat beyond her expectations. The original intention of her action this time was to express her opinion to the emperor and to test why the emperor suddenly replaced the God of the Sea from the position of the main god.
But what she didn't expect was that the emperor didn't seem to care who was the main god. Even though the other party clearly rejected her request, his casual actions and expressions still made Ma Xiaotao understand this directly.
It also made her realize that the source of this decree was indeed consistent with the information brought by her companions. This was the intention of the national teacher, and the other party had never been a shield!
Ma Xiaotao didn't know how he had the courage to face the divine punishment that could come at any time. This sense of uncertainty made her feel uneasy.
Hearing her words, Dai Yuheng rolled his eyes speechlessly and said unhappily: "Of course I know that something is wrong with him. Guess what I just saw? There was such a thing as piety in the eyes of those nobles and ministers! I was really shocked at the time!"
Dai Yuheng, who was born into the top group of nobles, knew very well that these upper-class people basically worshipped any god they saw, and so-called faith and piety simply did not exist.
So when they showed their piety to the God of Fertility, Dai Yuheng almost dropped his jaw in shock.
"No, not only that, he gave me a bad feeling, just... like..."
It's like a monster in human skin!
He was obviously just an ordinary person without any soul power, but when Lu Chun stood in front of Ma Xiaotao at a close distance, the evil fire in his body that was suppressed by Xuanming Douluo suddenly burned up, but it did not let Ma Xiaotao lose control.
It is like when a weak beast encounters a higher-level predator, it instinctively feels fear and subconsciously makes defensive and intimidating movements.
Besides that, she actually wanted to get closer to Lu Chun from the bottom of her heart, as if there was something in him that made her desire.
Shaking her head and putting these thoughts aside, Ma Xiaotao said, "In short, we should try not to contact them if possible. Since they said they will not pay attention to our actions, whether it is true or not, at least we have the truth with this statement, and our plan can reduce many accidents."
Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door. The two looked at each other, both wondering who would be looking for them at this time.
When I opened the door, I saw a woman wearing a half-mask. She said, "You two, my master wants to see you."
As he spoke, he handed over a silver token, on which was engraved a gorgeous black swan about to spread its wings and fly high.
Dai Yuheng immediately recognized who the token belonged to and whispered to Ma Xiaotao beside him. After listening, Ma Xiaotao hesitated for a moment, took the token, and left with the woman.
……
Time passed little by little, and the news that Emperor Douling was back in power after more than ten years could only be talked about as a topic of conversation among the common people after dinner.
For them, it doesn’t matter who is in power. Instead of caring about this, they should pay more attention to how the crops in the fields are growing and whether they will starve this year.
What really caused a stir was the imperial master who appeared out of nowhere and the decree he issued.
Unlike the nobles, who knew more and had more, they would only maintain basic reverence for the gods. After all, the two were too far apart.
But for these civilians who have nothing and have to go out early and come back late every day just to survive, the belief in the sea god is the motivation for them to insist on living in the world.
Everyone is familiar with the story of the Sea God. Everyone knows that his martial soul is the blue silver grass that can be found everywhere and even livestock don't eat it. With this martial soul, he destroyed the evil Spirit Hall and finally became a god and ascended to heaven.
Such an inspiring story will ignite a flame of hope in anyone's heart, and make them feel that they may one day be able to rise from adversity like the Sea God. With the idea that if they can't do it, they will look after their children, and if their children can't do it, they will look after their children's children, this idea has been passed down from generation to generation. They have never risen, but their belief in the Sea God is deeply rooted in their hearts.
Even if they were hungry and uncomfortable, they would still offer offerings to the statue of the sea god.
Therefore, when the decree reached all parts of the empire, the voices of resistance from these people reached a peak, just like a spark that exploded into a prairie fire!
They were well aware that to disrupt the government and attack officials would be to give others an advantage, so they gathered in front of the temple, holding hands and forming a human wall to block the way.
Faced with this wall of people, the officials' faces darkened and they felt bitter. It was not that they could not arrest these peasants directly, but they could not detain them for too long without sufficient evidence, because they would return here again after being released.
Even if they could detain them for a long time, officials would not dare to do it. Without these peasants, who would farm the land? Would they let the diligent and people-loving nobles do it?
Soon their troubles were solved by the visitors from the capital. These guests were wearing uniform white robes, and each of them wore some accessories made of plants to a greater or lesser extent. The officials asked them about their identities.
They said with piety: "We are believers of "abundance". We come from the Abundance Church. We spread the meaning of abundance and we sow the seeds of abundance."
Upon hearing that it was the follower of the God of Fertility who replaced the God of the Sea, the officials were overjoyed. They immediately told them about their current predicament and asked them to solve it.
The believers seemed uninterested in this, but they still followed to the temple and set up stalls while the officials looked puzzled and then stunned.
Some people made fires to cook, while others set up a table to treat illnesses and save lives. Before long, the air was filled with the rich aroma of rice, mixed with the scent of various herbs.
The officials hurriedly asked them what they were doing, and they replied: "We are planting the seeds of abundance."
"Master Pharmacist once healed us, now it's our turn to heal others."
The believers of Poseidon who were blocking the temple became alert after seeing this strange scene, thinking that the officials were thinking of some new trick to play on them.
The aroma of the food flowed into their nostrils through the air, stimulating their taste buds. Their mouths were filled with saliva, and they moved their throats to swallow, shifting their gazes in an attempt to counter the enemy's despicable tactics in this way.
As soon as I looked away, I saw someone waving enthusiastically, saying, "Come on, everyone, the food is hot. It's not too late to stand back after you finish eating!"
This sentence was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. The string in the minds of the Poseidon believers broke. When the first person who ran out appeared, the human wall collapsed and swarmed over there!
The Fengzao believers said happily: "Don't worry, there is plenty of food, please line up in an orderly manner to receive the food!"
When people get the bowl of delicious vegetable and meat porridge that they can only see in dreams, their eyes instantly fill with tears and they drink it without caring about how hot it is.
After he finished drinking, another Abundance believer came up to him and asked with a smile: "Are you still hungry? Oh, if it's not enough, have another bowl!"
"Ah...Oh! Please give me another bowl! Thank...thank you!" The man handed the bowl over stupidly, and when he came to his senses, his face immediately blushed and he stammered to thank her.
"You're welcome." The man in front of him smiled and placed his hand on his chest, saying devoutly, "May the God of Plenty protect you!"
The believers of Poseidon followed suit, thinking it was some special etiquette.
"May the God of Plenty bless you!"
The seeds have been planted, time will make them germinate, and they will eventually become golden wheat fields!
