Spring plowing on the lowland coast always comes earlier than on the Mexican plateau. May has just begun, and the black smoke from burning wasteland is burning in the reclaimed jungle. And tens of thousands of tribal people who were included in the Mintun flag team also began to work in the fields and sweat profusely under the supervision of the chief priests and flag team warriors.
Simple but sufficient wood and stone farm tools, strict but orderly collective work, rough but effective small ditches, and compost fermentation that the villagers cannot understand and are like religious precepts... The improvement of basic agricultural production is taking the Jinwan City area as the starting point. In the center, with the chief priests and warriors who manage various ministries, it gradually spreads from the Mintun villages ruled by the kingdom to the entire vast seashore! The high-yielding cassava brought back from Cuba is cultivated and grown in official fields in Jinwan City, giving birth to hope for the future!
"More harvested food, more working people, higher agricultural productivity...are the fundamental forces that will change the world!"
In mid-May, Shulot inspected a circle of villages surrounding Jinwan City for spring plowing. He saw the village that was rejuvenating and stood in the fields with new sprouts. He was satisfied and gave instructions to Yi Cui, the chief priest of the seaside.
"This year's spring plowing is obviously much more orderly than last year. The kingdom's agricultural innovation has finally brought some results in the seaside land!..."
"Etri, the missionary priesthood of the Lord God, and the Inquisition in your hands, must not only spread the faith of the Lord God, but also spread the latest agricultural technology! The latest sacrificial poems must be created to turn the steps of agricultural production into Langlang Catchy poems, and then guide them to the countryside in the name of the Lord God!…”
"Yes! God-inspired sect chief priest, follow your revelation!..."
Yi Cui, the chief priest of the seaside, was wearing a sacrificial robe and stepped on the soil at the edge of the field with his bare feet. He held a scroll of scriptures in his arms and a newly made charcoal pen in his hand, recording it seriously and respectfully.
"The Lord God looked from the sky, gazed at the land on the seashore, and gave divine revelation. He said: 'Hold a sword in one hand, and a scripture in the other. Keep your feet on the farmland, and follow the sun with your eyes'..."
"Yi Cui, I still say the same thing! As long as the surrendered villages and tribes gain substantial agricultural production under the guidance of the Lord God, the Lord God's faith will truly be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there will be tangible miracles and benefits! And the foundation of worship of the old gods will gradually disintegrate in the comparison between today and yesterday..."
"And as long as the majority of the tribesmen convert from the bottom of their hearts, the few remnants of the noble leaders will not be able to make any big waves!..."
"Yes Yes!…"
Chief Priest Yi Cui nodded repeatedly and continued to record the king's teachings, using language like scripture to write a new chapter of the seaside.
"The Lord God has infinite power, causing the false gods on the seaside to fall one after another. He is majestic and benevolent, and left a wise warning to the followers of the seaside: 'Whoever believes in me and obeys my words will have a good harvest in the fields. , the tribe multiplied, and there were many heirs... Those who did not believe in me would be left with nothing but desolation, withering and death, and their tribes would be destined to become extinct and sink into the endlessly deep East Sea...'"
"Yi Cui, what are you writing?...Huh? "Shenqi Donghailu"?"
Shulot turned around, took the scroll written by Yi Cui, and flipped through it for a while, his eyes suddenly changed. I saw that this entire volume of scriptures was densely packed with records of his usual words and deeds, as well as the royal orders and instructions he issued. Then, these words and deeds were named "Shenqi", modified with the language of priests, and compiled into a religious book representing the kingdom's ideology, named "Shenqi Donghailu"...
"Yes! Lord Priest of the Divine Enlightenment! You are the Divine Enlightener who gives enlightenment to the Lord God! And this scripture uses your words to explain the teachings of the Lord God, and to lead the priests of the kingdom and alliance to walk on the path of the Lord God. The right path to enlightenment!…”
Yi Cui, the chief priest of Haibin, looked respectful and showed reverence. In his words just now, he placed the word "kingdom" before "alliance" and emphasized "divine revelation" and "right path." And such a hint could not be more obvious to Shulot, who is in the political struggle between the alliance and the kingdom.
"Um…"
Shulot pondered for a moment and looked deeply at Yi Cui, the chief priest with a respectful look on his face. Then he nodded slightly and said with deep meaning.
"The Lord God is never a stagnant god. He is the rising sun that never sets! The right path of divine enlightenment really needs to be known by the priests of the Lord God... And some priests and elders of the alliance stay at the rising sun. When the time comes, it’s inevitable that I can’t keep up…”
"Yi Cui, this scripture of yours is very well written! Do it well, keep doing it, and let the priests of the kingdom preach and read it first! ... The chief priest of the kingdom, Jatiri, is old and wants to Concentrate on government affairs and various epics. And the kingdom’s chief priest, Marvelo, is already quite old... In terms of religious scriptures, the kingdom really needs a scripture chief priest to ensure that the vast majority of the kingdom’s priests have left. On the ‘right path of divine revelation’!…”
"Ah! Yes! Yes! Follow your will! Lord Priest of the Divine Enlightenment, your enlightenment is the most sacred and brilliant peak glow where the Lord God falls on earth! And I am your humble follower, yes Those who record the brilliance come to spread the light in the world..."
Hearing such a promise, the chief priest Yi Cui was overjoyed. He knelt down in the mud of the field and bowed to the king. The so-called chief priest of the scriptures can define the kingdom's ideology and review the beliefs of the vast majority of the kingdom's priests... Wouldn't such a position be equivalent to that of Marvelo, the kingdom's chief priest, and one of the most noble people? !
"Oh? The glow of the most sacred and brilliant peak, the glow of the sacred mountain?..."
Hearing this, Shulot understood it and smiled appreciatively. He looked into the eyes of Chief Priest Yi Cui and asked in a deep voice, also examining the other party's wisdom and pursuit.
"Yi Cui, what kind of sacred mountain are you talking about? Is it the Great Fireworks Sacred Mountain in the seaside land? The Tansitaro volcano in the Kingdom? Or the Smoky Peak Sacred Mountain in the land of the Alliance and Tlaxcala?..."
"Well…"
Hearing such a question that tested political wisdom, Haibin Chief Priest Yi Cui's thoughts changed rapidly, and a slight sweat broke out on his forehead. His eyes flickered for a while, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he answered respectfully.
"Master Priest of the Divine Qi Sect... I feel that whether it is the Great Sacred Mountain of Fireworks, Tansitaluo Volcano, or the Sacred Mountain of Yanfeng, they are all tangible and have owners. Most of them only belong to one region or a group of ethnic groups... If you want the brilliance of the sacred mountain to surpass that of the Alliance, it can even shine on the world..."
"Why not write another core origin scripture in the name of the sacred mountain of Aztlan, the origin of the Mexica people in mythology! Integrate the Mexica epic of the alliance and the exploration of the northwest plateau by the kingdom's exploration fleet , telling the Lord God’s initial guidance and redemption, to redefine the foundation of the Lord God’s faith, and to include all tribes in the world!…”
"Huh? The origin scriptures of the Aztlan Mountain? The Lord God's initial guidance and redemption? Redefine the foundation and include all parts of the world..."
This time, Shulot looked serious and pondered for a long time. He originally asked about the considerations and wisdom of the political situation, and how to integrate the ideology of the kingdom's priests when facing the alliance's high priests. However, Chief Priest Yi Cui's answer was to skip the situation of fighting without defeat, and to completely seize the highest religious interpretation power and overwhelm the alliance in one fell swoop...
"Yi Cui, this is not the time to overturn the table... It is still a little early to discuss the origin of the divine religion!..."
After thinking for a long time, Shulot smiled and shook his head. He stretched out his hand, shook Chief Priest Yi Cui's hair, and responded meaningfully.
"Of course, you have a good idea, you can start preparing now!... This origin scripture, which tells about the Lord God's initial guidance and redemption, will follow the "Ali Sutra" which tells about the Lord God's power to create the world... That is called It's... "The Original Divine Revelation: Out of Aztlan"!"
