Catalog of the Lost - a searing epic
Chapter 44
After Jack returned to the Nu Door, Black Flag stopped trying to approach him, which was a good thing for him, at least now he could bury himself in religion and think of the best way to spread religious ideas.
Jack first familiarized himself with the sermons compiled by the priesthood of the Dawning God, and found many arrogant and boastful words in them, which were embedded in the corners of the page, which were extremely difficult to detect, and as for the rest of the contents, compared with what he felt in the golden light, Jack learned that the contents of the mission were basically the same as the words of the Dawning God, so he was more convinced of the existence of the Dawning God.
In order to spread religious ideas, Jack spent a long time practicing calligraphy, and began to revise the mission book after he was able to write a good handwriting, he deleted those arrogant and boastful sentences, because in his understanding, the Dawning God must be humble and gentle, and then revised the position of the passages that he considered important, and put all the sentences that could reflect the Dawning God's thoughts in the most conspicuous place to ensure that they could be seen at a glance.
Under Jack's painstaking efforts and forgetting to eat and sleep, a new version of the mission book was published, and he immediately took it to the church in Numen Hall and gave the new version of the mission to the priest in the church, wanting to ask for his opinion, but received a regretful answer.
"I seem to hear the Dawning God whispering in my ear, it seems that my Taoism is still still latent, although I am deeply moved by such a good book, but it cannot enter my heart, is this really not written by the Dawning God himself? Although I approve, but I am sorry, I cannot replace the existing missionary book of yours. "
Jack understood the meaning of the priest's words, he did not believe that the book was written by him, but even that was okay, the important thing was that the priest refused, and Jack was extremely confused, so the priest answered his confusion.
"Religious belief has always been something created to calm people's hearts, and reading aloud words that only gods can say will make one's heart feel at peace, as if one can feel that the gods are beside you to guide you, but is there really an almighty god who will guide us who are lost?"
Jack was astonished by the priest's words, which should not have been uttered by a devout believer, and he felt angry, glaring at him and complaining rudely at him.
"Are you obviously a priest, and you believe in the Dawn God here day and night, but you don't believe in the existence of the Dawn God?"
If God really exists, will God sit idly by and watch those wandering people and starving people outside, and will God help God's faithful believers when they are in danger? At least I have never seen it. "
Jack has seen it, he heard the whispers of the dawn god, and at the same time he also realized that he is the only one who hears the whispers and sees the light, so he thinks that he is special, and thinks that the meaning of his birth in the world is to spread the faith of God, but only those who have experienced it will have the same idea as him, for that gentle god, tolerating and forgiving the insults of others should also be what a true devout believer should do.
"I didn't reject you because I didn't believe in the existence of the Aurora, on the contrary, this mission book even made me believe in the existence of the Aurora God, but I had to refuse, because this mission book is too dangerous for the people of Nu Gate Hall, if it is really this mission book that you compiled, then you will not be a priesthood or a preacher, but a mad madman", said the priest as he opened the mission compiled by Jack, opened the first page, and pointed to the words on it mercilessly and cursed. If you look at what is written on the first page, people will return to the ideal kingdom after death, this sentence has a complete sentence in the original missionary book, but you have split this sentence, the whole sentence is: to seek the value of life in the experience of life, only those who understand the value can return to the ideal kingdom, but you split this most important sentence, I doubt your purpose in doing so. "
Jack didn't have any purpose, just because he saw that the souls of those who died in front of him were leisurely existing in the ideal realm at this time, and he didn't believe that everyone knew what the value of life was, so he decided that even if he didn't understand the value of life, the Dawning God would be tolerant of all souls.
"What purpose can it be? Man will definitely return to the ideal country, because I see that even babies are in that beautiful place, isn't that a good thing?"
Jack's words were mistaken by the priest as an auditory hallucination, for he had heard many such examples, and countless believers told him that they had heard the advice of the dawning gods, and they soon went completely insane.
The
priest sighed, thinking about how to make sense of this fanatical believer, who had seen so many examples of fanatical believers who had grown from their original piety to madness, that perhaps saving their spirits was what it meant for him to be a clergyman.
"I won't talk to you about whether you see this problem or not, just talk about the sentence 'people will return to the ideal country after death', the current imperial kingdom is a place where religious beliefs are close to barrenness, as long as there is an existence that can be accepted by the public, it can flourish here, whether it is this book in your hand, or this book practiced by the people of Numen Hall, as long as it is circulated, you can establish a large religious organization in the imperial country. "
"Then I can't understand it, since you have said so, then why not do it, don't you know that just by spreading the thoughts of the Dawn God, you can change this absurd world?"
"You can't change the way of the world! You think you can change just because your mind is now in a state of frenzy, suppose, your book will eventually be read by everyone, do you know how much impact this first sentence will have, what will happen if someone really trusts the content on it, obviously the original sentence tells you to cherish life, but under your kind of sentence, people will no longer cherish this only once life, because if you die, you will go to the ideal country, then what is the point of living and suffering?"
Jack could no longer listen to the priest's rude blasphemy against the Dawn God, and shouted angrily, "This damn suffering has no meaning in itself!".
"That's right, but what can you do! Can you feed and clothe the hundreds of thousands of people who are left in the wilderness? No, this god who only exists in the missionary book can't!" the priest angrily tore Jack's book to shreds, and then slapped the remains of the discarded book on his face, which also made Jack completely calm, and then the priest took out the missionary book that the church pursued, and said in a relaxed tone, " I compiled this missionary book, and I kept the original content as much as possible, but I still deleted a lot of places. I thought that the dangerous passages were hidden in the corner for me, and slightly modified, so that they could be placed in the church of the Numen Hall, the original missionary book emphasized experience and exploration, emphasized that only through experience can we find the value of life, and decided that it is an indispensable part of traveling in a long life, I deleted these, and I was sad for a long time, I heard that you also traveled for a while, did you learn anything from your travels?".
Jack was completely speechless by this question, and when he came back to his senses, he picked up the wreckage that had fallen to the ground and gradually figured everything out.
This is not an era in which the teachings of the Dawning God can be carried forward, nor is it an era in which you can embark on a journey with a single passion, the belief of the Dawning God has not spread in the Imperial Kingdom so far, because the current situation is completely contrary to the thoughts of the Dawning God, hundreds of thousands of people are working hard to survive, and if they do their best to survive, they will be angry if they see the thoughts of the Dawning God, what strength do they have to think about the value of life on the road of survival?
However, the Dawning God will definitely forgive them.
Even though he was angry and unwilling, Jack recognized the priest's words and gritted his teeth and admitted, "I... Probably... I see. "
Seeing that Jack had regained his senses, the priest's tone changed from the stern he had just now, and patiently persuaded him.
"There are only a few people in the Numen Hall who know the things outside, and those who don't know are living happily here, and the same is true of the Dawn God's thoughts, embarking on a journey in this world will only happen a series of damn things, and the end will only be fruitless, and the worse ones will torture people to madness, thank Zwei, everything in the Numen Hall is thanks to him, to borrow a sentence from the missionary book, and it is also a sentence that you deleted: Don't repent for the stability of inaction, from another angle, it is a golden light in the darkness。 "
Jack's heart could not accept it, but he could only accept it helplessly, he was unwilling to ignore the admonition that led mankind to salvation, but there was no way at the moment, he needed time to think, so he turned around and prepared to leave the church.
Finally, the priest stopped him and reminded: "I remind you that if it were not for your contribution to the Numen Hall during that time, I would have driven you out with this missionary book." "
This tolerance may also be proof of being a believer in the Dawning God, so the stern persuasion just now must be to prevent him from going astray.
Jack turned around and bowed to the priest and said, "Taught." "
Jack, who had regained his senses, began to think, thinking about what kind of era could accommodate the belief of the Dawning God? It must be an era of no wanderers, stability, and social affluence, but it was not the era in which he was born.
He gave up the opportunity to spread his ideas to the outside world for a while, and began to delve into deeper knowledge with all his heart, hoping to see the image of the Dawning God in the text, and then waited for the day when the Age of the Law would come to an end, and it would be replaced by an age full of gold, in which everyone would be redeemed by listening to the advice of the Dawning God, and after death, the soul would return to the ideal kingdom.
In the spring of 1175 A.D., the town of Gergegau, north of Numen Hall, and dozens of surrounding villages joined forces to open a church, although the reason for the church was only because the lord wanted to rely on the church to collect money from the hands of merchants, but the religion of the Aurora God was first spread in this land of the Imperial Kingdom, and the following year, churches were also opened in Philadelphia to the east of Numen Hall and the town of Lalheim to the south.
Sadly, just when Jack thought he was finally going to embark on this long missionary journey as a missionary, everything came to an abrupt end, and even on the day when the age of the Law was truly over, the religion of the Dawning God was only religiously believed around Numen Hall.
In the summer of 1179 in the Aurora, Jack will always remember that day, a prophecy before the Golden Age.
Zwei found him excitedly, and his hands squeezed his shoulders fiercely, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.
"I've found it! I've found someone who can change everything! Jack, a kid from Lalheim, Emer, he's recognized by the 'King' directory! I have a hunch that he's going to be the pioneer of the Golden Age!".
