The moon and stars are sparse, and the long night is like water.
But this water is not still water, but boiling water, very boiling.
The night in Fengkelan East City has become a unique scenery relying on the enthusiasm of the residents here. The sincerity of ordinary people who take pleasure in the ordinary is always expressed in their gestures. The strong aroma of wine, accompanied by the melodious melody coming from the strings of the lute, infects the passers-by.
At this time, the "Five Summit Meeting" was being held secretly in St. Ruskin's Cathedral. Several elders of the Universal Church also responded to the situation and argued heatedly.
This church is like an old man in the dusk, squatting silently, incompatible with the excitement around him, calmly watching and listening to the arguments in the room, without a single ripple in his eyes.
"Riya, are you crazy? I came all the way back just to listen to your crazy talk here?" Flandiwen, who is in charge of the Northeast region, pointed at Riya's nose and asked loudly, " Do you know how much I have traveled in the past two days? What a xxx..."
Elder Frandivine was so angry that he began to curse.
Bishop Mengpu, who was the secretary of this meeting, had a headache on his face and didn't know whether he should write this down.
"You don't have to be embarrassed. Write it down honestly without missing a word. Of course, you must also write down everything Riya said. Then let future generations see who is the culprit of our sect's destruction." Flandiwen Although he was looking at Meng Pu as he said this, the point of his words was directed at Liya.
"Yes, Riya, setting up a church army is too aggressive, isn't it?" Candula, the elder of the southeast region, also disagreed with Riya's proposal this time, "You used to have a calm temperament. , what happened this time? Did you take the wrong medicine? "
Riya's expression was calm, and he curled up the corner of his mouth and said: "Ruddling forward? What is rash advancement? What is stability? What is stability? Like us, sitting in this life, making no achievements, is this stability? After a slight change, we will suffer like this It’s such a big insult, you are so rash and aggressive, and you are crushing it back into the ground as soon as it comes out. What are you doing? You are killing the future of the church!”
"Bah! You have encouraged everyone to go to war. By the time everyone is dead, you will really kill the future of the church." Flandiwen said angrily, especially when he said "killing the future of the church", he said anxiously Mao Li came and started knocking on the table. One word is like a hairy chestnut, I really feel sorry for this table board.
"Okay, don't get excited." Wang Jing elder Bo Teng said coldly, "This meeting is for everyone to discuss things, not for you to quarrel."
After the eldest Boten said this, Ria and Frandivine's anger dropped slightly. They both picked up their cups and drank two sips of tea to moisten their throats.
"Riya, what I'm actually curious about is, why did you suddenly make such a proposal? And you were so anxious to find everyone. Did something happen?" Boten turned to look at Riya and asked, "Are you so There must be a reason for raising troops and mobilizing people, can you tell us about it?"
Not only Boto, but several others also had this kind of confusion.
"Actually, I was bewitched." Ria lowered her head and looked at the black tea in the cup and said softly.
Seeing the plain and disappointed expression on Riya's face, Flandiwen and Candula did not show any disdainful expressions, but chose to listen quietly to Riya's next words.
"The Lord said to the man
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
You have to be disciplined, I am. . . Lost in it. " He said to me, "He told me that in order to establish a free and equal country, every inch of the land must be distributed to the people. Note, it is to be distributed to the common people. "
"I have never heard of such an idea. Just think about it, what a crazy idea is this? How arrogant it is to drive away those nobles and build a country where all living beings are equal... But think about it carefully, this is not Is this what Universal Master thinks?" Riya seemed to be saying these words to a cup of tea, without looking at the other four people from beginning to end.
Because this is always a process of self-persuasion.
For a moment, there was silence in the room.
The room was so quiet that you could hear each other's breathing.
Even Meng Pu, who was immersed in recording, put down the quill in his hand and frowned in thought.
These people tasted the same shock that Riya had tasted.
"That man is an ambitious man." Riya continued, "Oh, he also said that if he wants to completely destroy the Holy World Religion and turn everything over in this world, he can only launch such a revolution."
"Then have you considered how many people will die in such an unprecedented revolution?" Flandiwen did not speak in the tone of opposition just now. The worry in his expression did exist.
Ria smiled, as if she understood Frandivine's concerns, but also seemed to be mocking herself, "I asked the same question as you."
"What did the lunatic say?" Mu Qizhen, the northwest elder who had been silent until now, became interested. He looked at Liya curiously and asked.
Riya sighed, "He said that revolution is made at the cost of one's life."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked again.
"Hey! Where did you meet such a 'delusion'?" Candula said with emotion.
After Mu Qizhen pondered for a moment, he laughed and said, "What a delusional person."
"Did you come here just because you listened to this lunatic's crazy words?" Flandiwen was not questioning Leah, but he was asking seriously.
"Ha, if you think about it carefully, this person is really crazy." Riya said with a wry smile, "It seems that I have indeed gone crazy too."
Flandiwen frowned and said: "The ideal is grand, but it is a bit unreasonable for us, the Universalist Church, to be responsible for his ambition alone."
"He has his ambitions, don't you all here have the same ambitions?" Riya glanced around the crowd, "If you don't have them, then you shouldn't be worthy of sitting in this room, right?"
Several other elders stopped talking.
"Or are you indifferent to letting the declining Holy World Sect always suppress us and letting those ugly nobles bully our followers?" Riya asked in a low voice.
Even though the five elders usually restrain each other, no one has selfish motives. It's just that everyone has different ideas. Riya's words still caused a slight stir in the hearts of several people.
Universalism has developed steadily and gradually grown in their generation, but if you think about it realistically, most of this is due to the previous elders. The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants just enjoyed the shade.
If you hold the idea of "not seeking merit, but seeking no faults", then you are indeed not worthy of sitting in the position of elder.
"Although what you said is beautiful, if you really want me to risk the lives of millions of people, I can't do it.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
. "After thinking about it, Flandiwen said sternly to Riya, "So I still oppose your proposal. "
Ria nodded in understanding.
"What do you guys think?" Flandiwen said and then looked at the others. It seems that the elder in charge of the Northeast region is not as determined as before.
"This is a major matter that is against the world. I really don't know what to do. So... I don't agree with this proposal." Candula said bluntly.
"Hey, who can be confident about such a big thing?" Mu Qizhen said with a smile, "But I think this proposal is feasible, not for anything else, just for that lunatic."
"Crazy! Crazy! It's really crazy..." Candula shook his head and said angrily, obviously feeling quite unhappy with Mu Qizhen's statement.
"If he were an ordinary lunatic, Riya would not pay attention to him." Mu Qizhen explained with a smile, "So, this person must be extraordinary, right?"
After Mu Qizhen finished speaking, he glanced at Riya.
"His name is Alvin Ferrer." Riya also raised her lips, "Not many people here have heard of him, right?"
"Oh? It turns out to be that painter." Mu Qizhen's eyes shone, "Why, is this guy the fool we are talking about?"
"Do you know him?" Riach asked.
"I've heard a little bit, a little bit." Mu Qizhen smiled and waved his hands, "This guy is quite famous in the Principality of Boer. I really didn't expect that such a painter could be such an ambitious person?"
The northwest diocese that Mu Qizhen is in charge of is not far from the Principality of Boer and the Principality of Tiler. It is not surprising that he has heard of Alvin.
"How could a market painter have such knowledge?" Boto frowned and looked at Ria and asked.
"He is not just a painter." Riya replied. He didn't mention Alvin coming from the south here because he didn't want to bring him unnecessary danger. After all, his relationship with the other elders was not good enough to talk about such a thing.
And he has also weighed it. Even if he cannot convince the other elders to pass the proposal to form an army today, there will be other opportunities in the future. But to kill Alvin is to kill all the wild ideas in Alvin's head.
In general, Riya still cherishes talents.
"Don't go too far. We are not here to discuss some crazy painter." Frandivine said coldly, "Now it's two votes to two votes. What do you say, Boten? The life and death of our church depends on it. It’s up to you.”
"Bah! You will put pressure on me." Boten spat at Flandiwen with a smile. Then he looked at Ria and said seriously and gently: "I don't agree with your proposal either."
Flandiwen and Candula finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
But Mu Qizhen smiled and said nothing.
Ria was quite calm, as if she had expected this result. Depressed and lost? That's not the case. On the contrary, he felt a little relaxed. The psychological burden of the past few days was relieved a lot after being rejected by three votes.
"But there is a compromise." Boto winked at Ria and said.
"Huh?" Ria asked curiously.
"You can form the Universalist Army in your northwest area. I agree with this." Boten said with a smile.
"How is this possible!?" Flandiwen and Kandula stared at Boten at the same time, and they almost shouted out in unison.
