Chapter 79 I am the most handsome boy in Yeragond!
Without even a moment of mourning for the heroic sacrifice of the little stove, the person who immediately rushed to the Holy Mountain Square was the Holy Son of Kalan - Ernst Shivaash!
No matter how good or bad Ernst's mood was, Jeragond's prayer ceremony could never stop.It's not like he failed to do his own thing and took it out on his mother instead. That's really a bit of a filial son.
Compared with Tukarim Railway Station, the Holy Stone Square is obviously more lively.If the flow of people at Tukarim Railway Station can only be regarded as a high school that opens in the morning, then Holy Stone Square is the college entrance examination scene in the entire other world.
It is an indisputable fact that the Kjerag people prefer theology to science and witchcraft to parameters. Therefore, in order to achieve the transformation of Kjerag, enlightenment of people's wisdom must be the first priority.Otherwise, no matter how much we introduce advanced technology and open modern factories, we are just giving money to foreign companies and employees, and playing tricks to high-tech companies with technology monopolies.
This is a fact. If you don’t believe it, you can refer to the Qing Dynasty during the Westernization Movement. People will tell you with profound lessons that a corrupt and degenerate leadership class and an ignorant and backward social environment cannot be changed by one or two factories and pioneers.
This is why Ernst set up education first.
This is also the reason why Ernst wrote that speech specifically.
If education is implemented but no one is willing to come, then it means that it is not implemented. Ernst did not want the "Spark" night school he finally built in Tukarim to end up in a "mere" ending.Therefore, it is very necessary to be intense, or to arouse people's interest in knowledge.
And to arouse people's interest, it must be what they like.
"Sister, can I take a few minutes after the prayer is over?"
His eyes swept across the thousands of people in the Holy Stone Square, crowded together, kneeling on their knees, praying devoutly.Ernst asked softly to Enya, who was leading the chanting of scriptures beside him.
Of course Ernst had read "The Epic of Hieragonde", and because of his family education, he was familiar with it and could even recite some scriptures praising Hieragonde, but this was nothing. On such a big occasion, Ernst This Holy Son of Kalan doesn't want to embarrass himself by opening his mouth.
Just like Chinese people can more or less memorize two lines of poetry, but not everyone can go to the Chinese Poetry Conference to compete with those well-educated people in poetry solitaire and flying flower order.
So most of the time, he pretended to open his mouth and repeated what Enya said according to her rhythm using the fake mind-reading technique he had honed in 12 years of exam-oriented education.
Enya herself had no opinion on the matter.But Ernst actually spoke during the prayer, and she was somewhat dissatisfied.
Frowning slightly, Enya opened her eyes and glared at Ernst angrily, her eyes conveying the meaning of "be quiet now, we'll talk about it later".At the same time, the verses in his mouth were smooth and smooth without interruption or lag at all.
Of course Ernst could see Enya's hint.He pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but finally nodded.
There was no way, and Ernst could not expect everyone to have the same attitude as him, to regard God not as God, but as a partner, a friend, or a mother.
After the death of the great elder, Ernst, the holy son, rarely interfered with religious affairs. Manzhuyuan was ruled by the saint alone. In the stronghold of conservatives, Ernst could not expect Enya to have any influence from them.
However, it doesn't matter if you are conservative in your thinking.Ernst is not on the left. When he sees right-wingers and conservatives, his first reaction is to see the whole picture.
When the school is built, you can also go in and experience scientific education. Not to mention cleaning up all superstitious ideas, there is always hope for changing from traditionalism to innovation.Ernst had great confidence in his sister.
Oh, this traditionalist and innovative faction does not mean whether to use traditional incense candles or cyber tributes when offering incense.
Probably something like common Christianity and liberation theology?
The big prayer lasted nearly two hours.During these two hours, Ernst and Enya, who were standing in front of the holy stone with their heads lowered, could not raise their heads, open their eyes, or look directly at the holy stone according to the rules, because Jeragond, represented by the holy stone, was observing at the moment. you.It is disrespectful to look at God without courtesy.
The believers gathered in the Holy Stone Square had a more difficult time. To be more specific, they had to kneel all the time.
Kneeling, lowering your head, touching the ground, with a neat and standard posture, this may not be the rules set by Jeragond, but it has become a test of piety to Jeragond for thousands of years. Refining.
Ultimately, it is humans themselves who know best how to tame and train humans.
These two hours were grueling for Ernst, but to everyone else present, it seemed like only a brief moment.Because they have become accustomed to such rituals, human inertia is terrible. Once a year, it only takes five or ten years. From the age of three when a baby can pray and worship, by the time he is 13 years old, his domestication will be Completely done.
It's not like there is no need to pray before the age of three. Every life "given" by Yeragund is prayed from birth to death. It is nothing more than being held in the swaddling clothes of the parents before the age of three.
Before the prayer officially began, Ernst even saw from the crowd that the mouths of the babies were wrapped with cloth strips. This was to prevent them from crying during the two hours and disturbing the purity and peace that Jeragond loved. Holy.
It can only be said that it is a good thing that they did not pay tribute to two boys and girls to Jeragond every year on the grounds that "children are the purest".
No, it seems that a similar custom did arise in Manzhuyuan, but it was abolished by the oracle directly issued by Yeragand.
"Okamon."
Ernst praised from the bottom of his heart. The standards of piety are very different from those of believers, but the piety is the same.
"Praise to the great god Yeragond."
A long, solemn, and slow concluding sentence was uttered rhythmically from Saint Enya's mouth, announcing the end of these two hours of prayer.
Ernst couldn't wait to turn his head from facing the sacred stone to facing the people.
Looking at the people who were still burying their heads piously in the snow, they were already a little blue from the cold.Ernst raised his hand and said loudly:
"Stand up, no need to kneel!"
The people of Kjerag didn't respond much to this.There are still many people immersed in the atmosphere of piety and silence. The spiritual satisfaction makes them temporarily forget the fatigue and coldness of the material world.
Ernst pursed his lips and said again:
"The prayer is over, stand up!"
This time, someone finally answered Ernst’s call.He looked around hesitantly, but slowly stood up.
Ernst recognized the faces. They were people who lived in Tukarim.
After a long sigh, Ernst had no choice but to say again:
"Stand up. Only sinners kneel! Do you want Yeragond to think that all his people are sinners?"
The crowd suddenly became commotion, and people finally began to stand up, at a speed that even Ernst thought was exaggerated.
They looked at Ernst with a bit of reproach in their eyes, perhaps because Ernst's eager tone was not pious enough, or perhaps because he disparaged his "guilty" inference.
But having accomplished his goal, Ernst was only satisfied but helpless and took out his speech from his arms, and said loudly to the Kjelag who cast an angry look but dared not speak:
"Admit it, the reason why I am qualified to say such words without being condemned and punished by Yelagund is because when you hesitated with prayers, I was already learning to let Yelagund Be proud of me!"
Ernst held his head high and faced all the surprised or angry looks without hesitation, showing his best side.
Yes, that's what he's saying.
"I am the most handsome boy in Yeragund!"
PS: Damn it, I just watched the second round of the S13 draw, eight teams, five civil wars, real or fake.What kind of skill is this big brother who draws lots?
I was really afraid that as soon as he left the venue, he would be blocked by T1 fan trucks, hahahahaha.
No matter whether it’s a good draw or not, the highlight is that it’s full.Is it Xiaohu Casa's revenge on G2, Teacher Shy descends from the gods again, or is BLG and JDG changing their fate against fate, or is it the turn of eight defeats, T1 and geng rematch in the Korean server finals.
lng?Guaranteed.Take a bold bite, in all predictions, the score c9 is added!
Leave request: acute gastroenteritis
I started having diarrhea this afternoon and lasted until the evening. It was accompanied by colic. Taking Changyanning and Huoxiang Zhengqi liquid didn't help. I couldn't go to the hospital. Now I have to drink fluids.
It was probably one or two o'clock after I finished lifting the water, and I was in low spirits, so there was nothing I could do.Ask your brothers for a day off.
Everyone still needs to take care of themselves, as the weather is getting colder.It was still hot in Chongqing the day before yesterday, but it dropped sharply yesterday, and today it is in single digits.
Brothers, go get some water.
Chapter 80 Sacred Stone Speech
"I also stated this at the meeting of the three tribes that decided Kjerag's fate."
"I think the problem that Kjerag faces today is not simply a national issue, a political issue, or a religious issue."
"Regardless of the differences between Ursus, Zarak or Felin, etc., we are all the people of Yeragond, united under the same flag, living in the same snowfield, this land is ours The paradise that has been cultivated for thousands of years is a God-given land that cannot be invaded by anyone. Based on this principle, I can make the following conclusion."
"There is only one nation of Kjerag, and that is the Kjerag people. There is only one criterion for Kjerag's politics, and that is the continuation of the country. There is only one religion for Kjerag, and that is to believe in Yeragond. Religion. From this, I can solemnly declare that because of this principle, Kjerag will always be Kjerag. As long as it conforms to the above principles and does not violate, do not change, and does not reject it, it can be glorious. Claim yourself to be a Kjerag! Any other doctrine or argument is by no means the benchmark that determines everything for Kjerag!"
"This is what I think of as Kjerag's Outline of the Founding of the Nation."
With his back to the Holy Stone of Yeragond, the majestic Kalan Holy Mountain at his feet, beside him were the saints serving the gods, and in front of him were the thousands of Sherag people gathered here.
Ernst set the fact in the most solemn and firm tone.
Among them are advanced and even radical nationalism, such as the new interpretation of the national composition and integration within Kjerag, and also compromises with some relatively backward ideas, such as the establishment of the state religion status of the Yelagund Religion.
Perhaps in the eyes of some people, it is too early to talk about this now. The Kjerag people have not even completed the most basic enlightenment. Does it really make sense to talk about the nation and the future with them?
The answer is yes.
Because the structure of this kind of consciousness is that the earlier the better.Didn’t you see that the Ursus Empire, catalyzed by extreme nationalism and militarism, launched a great conquest movement that swept across Terra?Don’t you see that the Victoria Empire has been in the core circle for less than 50 years, but the domestic ethnic issues have come to the fore, to the point of splitting the country?
Kjerag has now begun to gradually open to the outside world, and sooner or later, that trend of thought will spread into Kjerag's land with the increasing number of caravans coming and going.Instead of waiting until that moment to forcefully suture the conflicts that arise, it is better to get vaccinated from the beginning.
Moreover, the purpose of Ernst's declaration was more to cultivate and utilize this ignorant nationalist sentiment to prepare for the next speech.
"The great God Yelagund protected Kjelag and gave him a land free from natural disasters, but the land will be invaded. The belly of our distant northern neighbor Ursus' giant bear is destroyed and digested. The land of Kjerag..."
The content of the prepared speech came out of his mouth. Ernst threw away the manuscript and spread this anxiety to the Kjerag people who were now a little "too comfortable".
Peaceful life lasted for thousands of years, and it was time for a change.
Outside of Kjerag, the rise of mobile cities and the introduction of high-speed battleships have changed the entire war situation.
Kjerag has not been invaded yet, but it is just because the three countries have checks and balances on each other that the cost of Kjerag's conquest and occupation is much higher than the benefits.
But now, what about the future?
Ernst wanted to tell all the Kjerags.Perhaps the political entity "country" is impersonal, but the people who lead the country are not.
It is not impossible for monarchs like the late Emperor Ursus to reappear. When their desire to conquer overrides the interests of the country, a "passionate war" that is low-yield but satisfies their desire to conquer is entirely possible.At that time, Kjelag will not be able to rely entirely on Yeragond for defense!
Ernst did not want to see the whole country boxers!
When Kjerag gets stronger, even if he cannot become Terra's Switzerland or Singapore, he will at least become Terra's Afghanistan, turning these mountains into a cemetery for all invaders!
"The benevolent Lord Yeragond has never asked the Kjerags to do anything, but are the Kjerags so willing to become babies in the mountains who will never grow up?"
"I don't want to, and I believe that neither will any Xierag who is ambitious, ambitious, and pious!"
The passionate voice sounded from in front of the holy stone and spread to the entire square.
Ernst is now extremely grateful for the several speech contests he participated in in high school and for the several movies he once watched that included speech scenes.
Otherwise, based solely on his experience as a civil servant, it would never be so easy to mobilize this emotion.
After all, it is a job that is so depressing that you have to follow the rules.
As Ernst's words fell, a somewhat unusual color finally appeared on the dull people's faces in the Holy Stone Square.
Ernst couldn't tell what that expression was.
fanaticism?pride?Can’t wait to start working hard now?
