The land of Qilu is one of the birthplaces of Chinese culture. There are many outstanding people here, but more than half of the ancient saints who can be named came from here.
Mount Tai was regarded by the ancients as a paradise that leads directly to the throne of the emperor. It was worshiped by the people and became a sacred mountain for emperors to offer sacrifices to God.
Yes, throughout the ages, many kings have enshrined themselves in Mount Tai, including many eternal emperors like Emperor Qin and Han Wu.
Harry is indeed a master of China, and he actually established the temporary headquarters of the Catholic Church on the top of Mount Tai.
It was obvious that he was taking advantage of the situation.
To put it bluntly, I just want to pretend to be tall and take the opportunity to improve my glorious and majestic image.
In fact, in addition to pretending to be a certain person, he also had to consider the appropriateness of the geographical location.
If you want to set up an altar to preach in Qilu, you must consider the reaction of King Yan who is entrenched in Le'an. If you get too close to him, you may suffer revenge and destruction from him. If you are too far away from him, then you lose the meaning of poaching.
The location of Mount Tai is neither far nor close, so it is just right.
Moreover, the terrain here is complex, which is enough to ensure your own safety.
From these comprehensive considerations, it is a wise move to choose Mount Tai as the foundation.
Harry is indeed very smart.
So, how is his Catholic religion developing?
That is, what the reality is.
Just ask Harry directly?
No!
Qi Yu still couldn't completely believe him, a foreigner.
There is a saying in "Zuo Zhuan": Those who are not of my race must have different minds; the ambitions of Rong and Di are not the same as those of Hua.
Therefore, it is necessary to be on guard against him.
In view of this, Qi Yu deliberately stopped at the foot of Mount Tai and asked the people around him about the actual situation.
Surprisingly, Qi Yu asked several questions in succession, but the people all expressed their ignorance.
Um?
Strange?
The Catholic Church is so close, why don’t the people know anything about it?
However, after careful analysis, Qi Yu suddenly understood.
I still remember that in the previous imperial edict, Harry had clearly made relevant restrictions on Harry's preaching, that is, he could only preach to believers of the Emperor Worship Sect, and not ordinary people.
Therefore, the local people know very little about the situation of the Catholic Church.
From this point of view, Harry can be regarded as a person who plays by the rules, and there is no obvious violation of the rules.
The common people are not familiar with God's religion, but what about Emperor worship? Do you know?
The people said: I know!
After talking about this, they couldn't help but vent. They didn't have a good comment on the behavior of the Emperor Worship Cult, and their disgust was very obvious.
This is public opinion.
In addition, people also said that in recent times, it is almost rare to see members of the Emperor Worship Cult going out to make money.
Have they recovered?
of course not.
Qi Yu knew that this was because they had returned from their lost ways and fell into Harry's arms after correcting their evil ways.
Therefore, so.
After completing these polls, Qi Yu was ready to go up the mountain to meet Harry.
Looking up, uh...
This Mount Tai is really big!
Qi Yu looked up at the towering Mount Tai in front of him, and couldn't help but frown, and his legs trembled a little.
Huang Fei rolled his eyes at him, showing disdain, as if saying: Are you scared?
What?
Are you looking down on me, Mr. Qi?
Okay~~
I have no opinion!
…
The climb begins.
But they saw that Huang Fei was walking in front of him and Qi Yu was stumbling behind.
The former looked calm and breezy, but the latter was sweating profusely.
"Sir Qi, don't you work on your body every day?"
"Exercise? How to exercise? You know, in a place like Taipu Temple, you can only drink tea and take a nap..."
Is this a reason?
However, Huang Fei still nodded, seemingly believing it.
…
Hurrying slowly, the two finally reached the top of the mountain before sunset.
After Qi Yu wiped his sweat, he rested on the top of the mountain and looked far into the distance.
Ah...the mountain is high and the peak is made by man!
This feeling of climbing Mount Tai and minimizing the world can only be truly understood by being there.
Just when Qi Yu was still immersed in the beautiful scenery, Harry's voice suddenly came to his ears: "Dear Mr. Qi, long time no see, are you okay?"
Yes, a secret guard had already informed Harry that his old friend Mr. Qi, the Censor of Promoting Weaving, was here.
Um?
This time, Harry, who was a Chinese expert, was a bit confused. He thought about it for a long time before he finally understood the meaning of 'promoting weaving censorship'.
However, although he figured it out, he didn't think about it.
Yes, what’s so fun about that little bug?
Also granted the title of censor?
funny!
…
As for Qi Yu, after hearing Harry's voice, he turned to look, but he was stunned!
Is this man the Mr. Harry I met before?
Look, the man in front of you is not only sallow and thin, but also his eye sockets are sunken, and those big dark circles under his eyes are comparable to those of an iron-eating beast.
What makes Mr. Qi even more incredible is that his skin color has changed from the original white color to the current wheat color.
One can imagine how much he devoted himself to his missionary work. What kind of hard work day and night?
For this, Qi Yu felt not only admiration, but also admiration.
The two met and exchanged a few polite greetings before going to a private room somewhere to sit and chat.
At the same time, Harry also arranged dinner, saying that he wanted to give Qi Yu a clean break.
The food was very bland, not only was there no meat, there was not even a drop of oil used for cooking.
In this regard, Harry explained that it was good to have vegetables to eat on the top of Mount Tai. You should know that these were brought up by the mountain pickers with great pains.
Oh I got it.
Just now, Qi Yu was still thinking about why Harry became haggard. Haha, now he finally found the reason.
After three rounds of drinking.
Qi Yu began to proactively ask about Princess Sichuan's assassination.
This is also his biggest purpose here.
Generally speaking, Harry's explanation is basically consistent with the information provided by the internal guards, and there is not much difference.
It goes like this.
One night, the woman suspected of being Princess Sichuan led more than a hundred people to assassinate Harry, but the secret guards who were waiting for him fought hard and forced them back in one fell swoop.
In this small-scale battle, the opponent suffered nearly 90% casualties.
Yes, our side has a small victory.
Is that all?
Harry answered clearly: Yes!
After hearing this, Qi Yu was a little disappointed, and felt that he had come for nothing.
Just when Qi Dalang was about to leave early and go to bed, Harry suddenly said something that interested him.
What's going on?
It was said that the woman who was suspected to be Princess Sichuan had left something behind when she led the remaining troops to retreat.
What is it?
It's a wood carving!
Someone may have said that wood carvings are common things. What is there to be curious about?
Yes, wood carvings are very common, but if a palace is carved from a small peach stone, it is no ordinary wood carving.
It’s truly a work of art!
"Bring it to me and see."
"OK!"
Then, Harry took out the peach stone wood carving.
However, I saw that the small peach stone was carved very interestingly. In the meantime, there were beautiful buildings, eaves and brackets, and the layout was extremely clever.
It's really strange!
This reminded Qi Yu of a wonderful article he once learned in later generations - "The Story of the Nuclear Boat".
The article describes a skilled craftsman named Wang Shuyuan, who can carve palaces, birds, fish and insects and other thousands of strange creatures on extremely small objects.
It seems that this kind of legend is true, and there are indeed masters among the people.
After the fresh energy wore off, Qi Yu lost interest.
Yes, although this thing is strange and unusual, it has no practical significance.
Therefore, after looking at it, Qi Yu threw the object back to Harry.
