Chapter 17 From Green Field to Pingding Mountain

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 The past week or so has probably been the busiest period for Li Yu since he joined the new company.

On the one hand, he needs to make a plan for the territorial development of the religious order, and this part of the work has actually started very early.

Whether it was wandering around to open a map, collecting information on various flora, fauna and minerals in the green fields, or chatting with all kinds of people near Teacup Castle to understand the customs and productivity levels of Bratis, it was actually for

Doing research here.

This is also Li Yu’s working habit.

Only by investigating the problem clearly can we prescribe appropriate solutions to the problem, instead of just doing things in a hurry, which may seem like a lot of effort, but often results in half the effort with half the effort.

It was precisely because of the good foundation he had laid previously that even if an unexpected incident occurred such as the lizard people migrating out of the swamp and causing him to pick up thousands of followers in vain, Li Yu was not in a hurry and quickly revised and formulated a new plan.

The plan comes.

Let these lizard people quickly settle down in the new land and put them into production.

The cooperation of Onunde, the leader of the lizard people, played a big role in this, but the most important thing was Li Yu's own identity as a prophet, which made the lizard people obey his words.

However, the way the lizard people worship Saturday is still the same as the way they worshiped Sosokos before. They just changed the name and some of the particularly brutal and bloody rituals were banned by Li Yu.

If Li Yu didn't plan to continue to recruit new followers and just wanted to live with these lizardmen, this wouldn't be a big problem.

Anyway, the lizard people are quite down-to-earth and do not lack the faith they deserve.

But Li Yu is obviously not satisfied with being so isolated. His goal is to make everyone on the entire continent believe in Saturday.

Therefore he must create a more extensive and advanced religion.

He had prepared this part of the work much earlier. He has been actively reviewing relevant information since he joined the company, and continuously added and modified it based on the actual situation on the continent of Bratis. Now the basic framework has finally been completed.

Regarding the definition of religion, in fact, the relevant academic circles have not been able to reach a broad understanding until now.

When defining it, because everyone has different priorities, they often overemphasize its characteristics in a certain aspect.

However, most of the world's religions are composed of four factors.

The first is concepts and thoughts, that is, the self-explanation of religion and a unique set of world views extended by it. This is the cornerstone and core of the entire religious system.

This is also the part where Li Yu invested the most energy.

An excellent religious outlook should be self-explanatory. A theory can only appear credible if it minimizes self-contradictions.

Unfortunately, any world view, even a materialistic one, must have its historical limitations. With the development and advancement of science and technology, human beings' understanding of the world must be constantly changing.

This will lead to cracks in the original worldview, and if there are too many cracks, it may even completely collapse.

To prevent this kind of thing from happening, in addition to having a good foundation of the theoretical system itself, we have to rely on later generations of believers to continue to patch it up.

It's like if you pick an app at random on your mobile phone, if it wants to run well, it requires programmers to constantly update and maintain it.

The same is true for religion. Sometimes the bugs are so big that hot updates cannot fix them, and you have to iterate and reinstall the installation package.

However, compared to those pioneers in this universe, Li Yu's advantage is that his understanding of the world exceeds that of his contemporaries by thousands of years.

This also ensures that the code he writes can run smoothly for more than a thousand years without any vicious bugs.

And the most awesome thing about the worldview created by Li Yu is that a large part of the content is real, but has undergone some necessary artistic processing.

He abandoned the increasingly unsustainable creationist aspects of traditional religion,

It tells a salvation story in the style of a classic Japanese RPG game.

Among them, Li Yu did not try to downplay his status as an outsider on Saturday, but instead further strengthened and exploited this.

In the description of his first version of the story, Saturday is a foreign god who lives in a kingdom far away from the continent of Bratis. In his kingdom, everyone lives a prosperous and happy life and can get sufficient rest and entertainment.

good life.

However, the compassionate Saturday noticed that there was a group of people living in suffering on the earth outside its kingdom of God, so the compassionate Saturday sent his prophet to come here to rescue them.

Lead them to build a kingdom of God on land.

When Li Yu talked about this, some lizard man believers raised their hands and asked, "What is the Kingdom of God on land?"

"Good question." Li Yu turned on the projector.

A promotional video about Pingdingshan began to play on a white curtain not far away.

The promotional video was not long, only about five minutes long, and the lizard people could not understand what was being said in it, but this did not prevent them from all pricking up their ears, widening their eyes, and staring intently at the endless scenes on the screen.

Changing picture.

The main reason why Shanghai's city promotion video was not shown was because Li Yu was worried that it would be too high-end all at once. Lizard people would not be able to digest it and would not be able to understand what was in it. Uu Kanshu www.uukanshu.com would not be as good as ordinary ones.

The effect in the city is good.

Anyway, no matter Shanghai, Pingdingshan, or even Hegang, which is no longer economically prosperous, it is enough to satisfy the lizard people's imagination of the Kingdom of God.

No, it should be said that it far exceeded their imagination.

Looking at the high-rise buildings, neat roads, and the constant flow of small iron boxes on the road in the promotional video, the faces of the lizard people are all filled with director Ang Lee's famous quotes.

―I couldn’t understand it, but I was shocked!

The top-down aerial photography also made them exclaim in surprise, not to mention the magical time-lapse photography, which made some lizardmen kneel on the spot.

Coupled with the happy smiles of all the people who appear in the promotional video, it makes people sincerely believe that the people living there are really happy.

After a promotional video was played, all the lizardmen's emotions boiled over and they couldn't calm down for a long time.

After an unknown amount of time, a lizard man spoke, and said in a trembling and excited voice, "This, is this the kingdom of God where our Lord Saturday and the prophet you live? I... we can also live such a life.

?"

"Of course." Li Yu's tone was very certain.

"Let me tell you, I was sent here on Saturday to establish the kingdom of God on land. However, my strength alone is far from enough. I need the help of you and other believers in the future. Let's work together.

"Anyone who is willing to join this great cause, regardless of gender, race, identity, or whether there is any previous enmity between each other, is our family and comrades-in-arms, and everyone is working hard for the same goal."
