List of strange talismans

Chapter 61 The God-Building Project Begins

Ma En did not answer on the spot, but only said that he had to think about it.

Gu Xiuya was not surprised by this.

It is not easy for a person to give up half his life's career and change his family. It requires all kinds of "no other way" and a little help.

Gu Xiuya thought for a moment, and wrote a note to Sachet: "Give it to Yelena."

Satchett took the lead.

Gu Xiuya immediately said to the others: "Shuntian Sect does not worship, but each family must enshrine a longevity tablet. Apart from this, all religious activities are no longer compulsory."

People responded to Gu Xiuya's tolerance with cheers. In this way, it was even easier than believing in the Heavenly Father religion.

Gu Xiuya then took out a piece of kraft paper that he had written long ago and handed it to Childe, ordering him to rub it and keep it on file, and distribute it to every believer.

As one of the few literate people in Galanz, Childe naturally agreed, but when he took it and opened it, he was stunned.

On the paper, there were two strange characters that had never been seen before. They didn't look like words at all, but looked like... two paintings.

"Your Excellency, is this really a word?"

Childe had doubts about what he had learned, and couldn't help asking: "How should they be spelled?"

"You don't need to know its pronunciation, and everyone doesn't need it. The only thing you need to do is to make it into a tablet and worship it day and night."

Gu Xiuya said lightly.

The more Childe listened, the more confused he became. He had never heard of such a missionary technique.

Seeing that Gu Xiuya had no intention of explaining, he had no choice but to suppress his doubts and turn around to start the arrangement.

After some arrangement, it was getting late, Gu Xiuya asked everyone to go home to rest first, and called Childe again.

"Where are the people left by Matthews now?"

"In the mayor's mansion."

"Do you think they will attribute Matthews' death to our gods to avoid administrative punishment?"

Childe opened his mouth, he really didn't think about it.

"...I don't know, sir."

"Ask them for me if they would like to believe in Our Lady of Suntian. If so, I will personally bless them."

"What if, uh, what if they refuse, sir?"

"Then invite them to dinner."

Gu Xiuya said lightly, "I will also be there in person at that time."

Early the next morning.Gu Xiuya summoned Angelet and other gifted people to clean up the mess left by the heavy rain along the way and carry out post-disaster reconstruction.

In fact, related work started a day ago, and most of the affected people have already returned to their houses.

A small number of residents who were powerless due to the death of the main labor force of the family, and those whose houses collapsed and had no fixed home, also got temporary housing under Childe's arrangement.

For example, Angelet was given an ownerless house as a shelter.

Gu Xiuya did not comment on this aspect, he has always believed in professional people doing professional things.

Along the way, in addition to setting the allocation of relief food for the next half month according to the disaster situation, he directed everyone to clean up the blockage.

The accumulation of sand and gravel is still a trivial matter, and the trouble is the excrement and drowning that was washed away by the heavy rain.

Galanz does not have an established sewage pipe network system, let alone a separation system for rainwater and domestic sewage.The torrential rain flooded the septic tank, and there was an indescribable stench almost everywhere.

Gu Xiuya knew without thinking that the well water in the town must have been polluted.

He called Childe to inquire, and learned that the clerk had already made arrangements for this, and had ordered the residents to fetch water outside the town.

As for disinfecting
"What is disinfecting?"

When Childe asked this, his face was pure blank.

Gu Xiuya didn't explain too much, but just asked everyone to clean up the dirt quickly.Then they asked Angelet and others to tell all believers that they must wash their hands with lime water before meals, boil the food before eating, and keep good ventilation.

Then, he asked about what he ordered last night.

"I have conveyed your wishes to Captain Jeffrey through the patrolling soldiers."

"In this regard, he said that as long as you don't mind them writing to the family to report the specific situation, they are allowed to stay in the mayor's mansion and deliver food on time. He can restrain his men and not interfere with us. Until the next mayor Come and take office."

"In addition, he said that to show his sincerity, he can send the letter to us after we have read it, and we will send someone to deliver it."

When Childe said this, he smiled: "I think they are mostly intimidated by your reputation."

"hope so."

Gu Xiuya was noncommittal: "Tell them that I agree. In a few days, I will go to see him in person."

Due to the short duration of the rainfall and the lack of floods that should have occurred, the torrential rain did not have much impact on the crops outside the town in the end.

The dredging work in the city ended soon, and most people returned to normal life with help.

Gu Xiuya didn't give more instructions to the administration, he let Childe go on as usual and maintain the normal operation of the town, while he returned to the Shuntian Temple and started the compilation of the Shuntian Sect's scriptures.

The so-called teaching scriptures are actually the "missionary instruction book" of a sect.

It usually contains the background legends of the gods believed in by the sect, stories of epiphany, various oracles, and the core ideas of the sect itself.

Since this is the first attempt to create a god through faith, Gu Xiuya is quite cautious.

He didn't create a fictional background for the Holy Mother of Shuntian, nor did he define His character in words. These things are important to other sects, but they are cumbersome to him.

The more vivid the image, the easier it is to escape control and become real.

What he wants to do is not to create a peerless god, but an 'energy machine' under his control.

Therefore, Gu Xiuya did not wish for the birth of Our Lady of Shuntian.

His purpose is to use the name of Our Lady of Shuntian to fabricate a god that belongs to him alone, and gain the ability to control the power of consciousness.

Not through some remembrance fetish, but through controlling the gods.

After adapting to this step, he will try to become a god himself next.

Such an idea is undoubtedly very crazy, but Gu Xiuya thinks it is not impossible.

To put it bluntly, the gods are imaginary creations that come true. Although they have infinite power, they are bound by legends and beliefs. As long as the back door is left when writing the story, everything is promising.

Therefore, he wrote-

"The Holy Mother of Shuntian itself is not powerful, she is just an ordinary mortal who helps women with dystocia."

"But she is powerful at the same time. Her divine power comes from an artifact."

"It is said that in the boundless deep sea where the gods live, there is a square stone pillar condensed by the power of pure consciousness."

"At a certain time, he will turn into a sacred weapon, a sword based on heaven, and send divine punishment from the sky."

"But most of the time, He is in a chaotic and blind state."

"He is foolish and ignorant, has no thought, and is not informed by thought."

"He is the fusion of consciousness and spirit, as well as knowledge and power itself."

"His divine power is inexhaustible, extremely gentle, and will not cause any irreparable damage to the user."

"He will mercifully satisfy the curiosity and knowledge of all beings, and give them the power to overcome suffering, as long as they write His title and recite His name."

"His name is: Taihao."

The last two words, Gu Xiuya, used oracle bone inscriptions.

Here, Gu Xiuya marked a special sentence.

"The holy precept must be written correctly with the blood of the saints, and the pronunciation must be read accurately to be effective. The amount of blood will determine the strength of Taihao's power."

As for the pronunciation, Gu Xiuya didn't write it at all.

He doesn't want this power for anyone but him.

After listing the basic framework, Gu Xiuya began to fabricate related legends.

He is quite familiar with this aspect, after all, he read novels a lot in his previous life.

He casually wrote some bizarre stories as the background of the Shuntian Sect, and Gu Xiuya recorded what he did after he came here in the form of stories as part of the legend.

In order to prevent himself from being affected by the power of consciousness, resulting in uncontrollable consequences, he withdrew his name in the story, and only referred to him as "the original saint".

"The original saint who traveled through time is in charge of the key to unlock Taihao's power, and is also Taihao's only spokesperson."

"At any time, the power of Taihao cannot harm the original saint."

At the end of the story, Gu Xiuya used these two sentences as the last insurance.
