Goddess Wanhua Mirror

Interestingly, Kumilad gave an "answer" before Luther could ask a question as soon as he entered the room.

"With your current strength, you will never win against the Brotherhood of the Black Hand head-on. That fake is already a third-order god, and to be honest, she is not a bit smarter than that idiot Hume."

"You know the Brotherhood of the Black Hand?"

"I don't know... not much."

Kumilad smiled and took a sip of the cup of black tea on the table that could never be finished and would never go cold, naturally exuding an unfathomable temperament.

"Since you know everything, why are you just watching?"

"Boy, you'd better figure it out. Although I can be regarded as Hume's mother in a sense, I am not the real mother after all. And the fake is only temporary. Once she replaces the Hume you know, then she will Not fake anymore. Why would I help one daughter against another?"

"I think you explain so much, you are just making excuses for wanting to watch a good show."

"Whatever you think, at least in this matter, I can at most provide you with limited intelligence support, and the rest will depend on you."

End of this chapter

Kumilad's meaning is very clear, this tax evasion god just wants to have fun, so even if she may have discovered that the Black Hand Brothers have a fake thief god a long time ago, she still chooses to pretend not to know and continue to be a non-interfering station "Quality audience" for performances.

Luther doesn't know if this guy is an evil god, but he is definitely a god of scum!

Fortunately, Kumilad did not refuse to answer Lude's consultation, and provided him with a lot of important information that would have required a lot of effort to collect.

The first question Lude asked was about the Thief of the Brotherhood of the Black Hand.Kumilad mentioned in what he said just now that this guy has already broken through to the third level of gods, and as his believer group, the Brotherhood of the Black Hand has definitely not been established for more than a hundred years.

This growth rate, for the traditional gods, has been astonishing to the point that it does not conform to "common sense", so Lude can't help but think of a possibility that makes him feel a little uneasy.

"I said, there shouldn't be a fire of origin in the hands of that fake God of Thieves, right?"

"Oh! I guessed it!"

"..."

Seeing that Kumilad indirectly admitted this speculation, Lude's expression suddenly became gloomy.But Kumilad told him not to worry too much. The Fake God of Thieves did have a source of fire in his hand, but it was not like the one in Lude's chest, which was brought by an old astrologer from the center of the earth four years ago. The "new fire" that came out.

Most of the gods and mortals in this world don't know the existence of the fire of the source. In the center of the earth is the forbidden area of ​​the gods, where the flames of the gods are bred, but only those blasphemers who do not recognize the gods in their hearts can touch it. , sounds full of irony.

However, gods and believers cannot enter the center of the earth, and there are very few pure "blasphemers", but the main body of the fire of the original fire is like an active volcano, and occasionally some sparks will spew out and fall to the surface world.

These sparks scattered to the mortal dust, generally cannot exist on the surface for a long time, and will soon be extinguished, but occasionally there are special cases.

Since Mars often triggers "miracles" where it falls, and even induces the birth of new gods, a few people in the know will actively pursue these miracles and try to collect them before Mars goes out.

The Fake God of Thieves has such a special container that holds Mars in his hand.

The original fire in Lude's body was directly stripped from the main body of the fire in the center of the earth by the old astrologer. Regardless of the quality or magnitude, it is much higher than the Mars with only a trace of residual heat. It improves the efficiency and effect of faith collection The radius is not strong at all.

But the Brotherhood of the Black Hand has been in continuous operation for decades, with members spread across dozens of large and small towns, and the total number of members is conservatively estimated to be more than [-], not counting the informal members who may be affected by it.

His first-mover advantage is there. It is as if the 20-year-old general Pan Feng caught the three-year-old Lu Bu.No matter how high the growth limit of your No. [-] warrior in the Three Kingdoms is, it is impossible to beat an adult while wearing crotch pants.

Therefore, if Lu De wants to win, he must try his best to hold back for another ten years until he develops strong enough, or he has to find another way to outsmart him.

Another question from Lude is about the fake god of robbers. What is she?In order to even snatch Hume's god position and identity?

This question made Kumilad ponder for a moment, and then explained.

"That child...actually should be regarded as a substitute for Hume."

"Substitute? What kind of substitute?"

"I think you should know that during the battle of the gods, Hume was on the wrong team and sneaked into the Temple of War and was caught. Fei Gelai cut off her hands and cast a curse, sealing almost all of Hume's divine power. After the disaster, Hume hid She woke up and did not respond to her followers for a long time, so some of them converted to other gods because of disappointment, but there were also some fanatics who, in the extreme desire for a response, contributed to the birth of another Hume .”

"Why does it sound a bit like... a spare tire?"

According to Kumilad, the fake God of Thieves is a substitute that was abruptly "made up" by those fanatics during Hume's avoidance of the limelight.And this substitute is recognized because it answers the call of believers.

This is like "another establishment of the central government". The fake thief god was regarded as real by some believers, and a mafia brotherhood that believed in fakes was established.

On the one hand, the real Hume hid in Tibet for 300 years because of the curse, and on the other hand, he grew rapidly by the spark of the original fire.

If this trend continues, sooner or later Hume will say that famous line of Huang Silang!

There is one thing to say, this group of believers does have a pitiful side, but Lude cannot agree with the path they chose after establishing their own family.

Although the God of Thieves symbolizes the evil deed of stealing, Hume's heart still wants to consider the side of justice. It is not difficult to see from her frequent taking fallen leaves to rob the rich and give to the poor. Hume wants to be a good god.

But the Fake God of Thieves is actively embracing the darkness, making it clear that he wants to be an evil god, and the Brotherhood of the Black Hand does all kinds of evil.

"If you want to get in touch with the Brotherhood of the Black Hand, I suggest you go south to Yanwood City on the other side of the empire. That kid's lair is there, but I can only tell you this, how to find it depends on your own It's up to you."

After Kumilad finished speaking, she lowered her head and continued to read her book, making it clear that this was the end of the question and she would not answer any more questions.

The next morning, Lu De woke up early in the morning. After having breakfast, he embarked on the road to school after a long absence.After going out for so many days, he came back and ran into a bunch of messy things. He, the principal, hadn't given a lecture or showed up at his school for a while.

In addition, today is also the day Earl Lumley agreed to send foreign students over. In addition to the fifty medical students that he had negotiated at the beginning, the Earl also asked Luther for a catalog of the school's main training majors. Ten people were all sent, and finally a large team of 150 people was abruptly assembled.

This mighty student group arrived at Pine Tree Town smoothly at noon. The escort was the Warlord Knight of the Earldom, and the old acquaintance Sha Luo led the team.Ever since Lude "restored" her youth, the female knight's eyes lit up every time she saw Lude, showing a restlessness eager to try.

Passers-by who didn't know it thought that the priest's young appearance was too handsome and charming, which attracted the green pepper knight's heart, but Lu De knew that he was still thinking about fencing with him!

Lu De greeted this group of people at the gate of the town, and also brought a group of students to organize a welcome ceremony. They stood on both sides of the street holding bouquets of flowers and shouted "Welcome new students". The sense of ceremony is very heavenly!

End of this chapter

At the beginning of the establishment of Lude's school, every aspect was as close as possible to the most familiar model of the Celestial Dynasty in his memory.But after the first year of running the school, some townspeople reported to Lu De that the two semesters of each year happened to be stuck in the two busy farming seasons of spring plowing and autumn harvest, which most needed manpower.

Therefore, in response to these reflected problems, Lu De adjusted the start time of the school in the second year, from winter and summer vacations to spring and autumn vacations. The first and second semesters of each year start in May and October respectively, each lasting four months.

For Lu De's adjustment, the parents applauded, while the students were collectively confused.The promised holiday break turned into doing farm work in the fields, and the worst thing was that I had to write an essay to talk about my work experience when school started.

So now in late June, the first half of the semester has just started for more than a month, and the international students from the Earlland will not encounter a big holiday as soon as they arrive at the school.

The team from the Earlland received a warm welcome at the gate of the town. Among the welcoming team, apart from the teachers and students headed by Principal Lu and the local townspeople who came to watch the excitement, the Baron's family also made a special trip to join them.

Without the evil spirits haunting her dreams, the old lady could get out of bed the next day after the exorcism, just in time to go out for a breath of fresh air, which is considered a good rehabilitation exercise.

Meanwhile, the foreign students led by the earl were looking at the small town in front of them with great interest.Although the town in front of them was not as grand as Wolfhelm City in the Earldom, the clean and tidy streets and enthusiastic and energetic townspeople gave them a good first impression of Pine Tree Town.

The average age of this group of young apprentices was less than thirteen years old, some of them were recruited from the local residents of the Earl's territory, and some were servant children of the Earl's family.

Before they came to Pine Tree Town, they all signed a labor contract with the earl with the attribute of prostitution.The earl promised to provide them with tuition fees and all living expenses in Pine Town for three years, and after they finished their studies, they would go back to serve the lord for a full 30 years.

From the point of view of people on earth, this is definitely the overlord clause, but in this world, it is a god-sent opportunity that many people at the bottom want to grab. It is enough to change their orders!

You must know that this is an opportunity to serve the lord, just like the local civil servants in the Middle Ages.And the Lumley family is quite famous, counting the previous three generations, they were all tyrants who loved the people like their sons and governed well, so as soon as the recruitment order was sent out, the target was overfulfilled the next day.

However, before these children came to Pine Town, they knew little about this new type of town located on the northern border of the kingdom.I only know that there is a God of Medicine Sect here, and their sect sent out a rejuvenated saint named Lude, who founded a college named "Brewster".

But unlike the "academy" that people from other worlds are familiar with, Brewster Academy neither teaches magic to train mages, nor does it teach martial arts to train knights, nor is it like some well-known monasteries, where one can become a priest upon stepping out.

Brewster College is a place that specializes in cultivating craftsmen, doctors, and craftsmen. They are all low-level professions in the eyes of ordinary people, so they are far inferior to those well-known schools that produce strong people in large numbers.

But just a few months ago, Saint Luther led his trained physicians to show their strengths in Oyster Harbor where the plague broke out, successfully cured the plague, and saved Oyster Harbor from the fate of destruction.

At the same time, large-scale infectious diseases also broke out in many ports on the mainland.Against the backdrop of these peers, the Oyster Harbor that has survived is particularly dazzling!

With the bloody facts in front of them, the lords everywhere had to start thinking about a serious question.

What would they do if the plague broke out on their own land?

Against this background, the lords in the northern part of the kingdom have the advantage of being close to the water, and they have plans to send people to study in Pine Tree Town one after another. The status of doctors has also risen accordingly, and they have suddenly become highly respected sweets. cake.

Surrounded by many people, the Earlsland student group walked through the clean streets and arrived at the college located on the east side of the town.

The entire college covers about a quarter of the town, and the entire area is completely surrounded by continuous walls. The teaching building inside was designed and presided over by Lu De himself, with red bricks and green tiles, and bright and clean windows.The auditorium even used quite extravagant marble, which was a "gift" left to Lude by the God of War Cult, and was properly used by Lude.

I believe that Narad, who is under the nine springs, will definitely give him a middle finger with a smile and give him an affectionate "Mom sells a batch"!

Except for the teachers and students in the school, ordinary townspeople are not allowed to come and go here on weekdays. There are militiamen from the police regiment standing guard at the gate and patrolling. Students create an optimal learning environment.

It is worth mentioning that when Mein and his group first arrived in the town, they actually wanted to occupy the school as the lord's mansion, but when they found out that the school was the property of the church, they didn't want to confront the God of Medicine Sect when they were in Mein, so they could only The next best thing is to take away the hotel opened by the mayor Rom's family.

The foreign students in the Earl's Land never expected that the school turned out to be such a magnificent place, much better than other houses in the town.Lu De, who brought them into the school, pointed to several of the buildings and said that they were the student dormitories where they were going to live.All boarding students, no matter where they come from, will be treated fairly and uniformly to ensure their lives.

Thinking of the place where I will stay for at least three years, the conditions are better than I imagined before, and everyone's original worries about leaving home have been relieved a lot, and they nodded towards the dormitory building in private with satisfaction.

"It's nice! It's nice to live in the school!"

In front of all the foreign students in the Earl's Territory, Lude gave a relatively short speech.He knew that children didn't like long speeches, and he didn't want to be an annoying long-winded principal, so he tried to be concise.Then the senior seniors of each department will take the students of this major to the designated dormitory.

Lu De gave everyone half an hour to pack their luggage, and later he would show them around the school and go to the auditorium to make up for the opening ceremony.

During the waiting period, the old lady who came to visit looked around. This place cost a lot of money at first glance, no worse than some rich manors she had seen before, but Lude turned such a place into a school and recruited The students are still the children of ordinary civilians.

If it was an ordinary lord, I'm afraid it would be inevitable to have some conspiracy theories. I suspect that Lu De spent so much time building a school for training craftsmen, he must have other plans.But Lu De had the grace to save the old lady's life, coupled with the aura of "saint" on his body, so the old lady didn't think about the bad side.

But the old lady still had a lot of doubts, so she took the initiative to ask Lu De.

"Master, you must have spent a lot of money to run this school!"

"It's true that there are quite a few, but I didn't pay for all of them alone. We have received donations from all walks of life. Many teaching buildings on the campus were built by the dwarf construction team sent by Viscount Guliger next door, from building materials to labor. , Lord Viscount confiscated me a penny."

"But I don't understand. Why do you want this school to only train low-level workers? I just read the introduction you provided. The school now has [-] majors to choose from, but apart from doctors and blacksmiths, which are more important, There are tailors, cooks, musicians, and even...farmers, do these skills need to be learned in school?"

"Old lady..."

"Call my name Sirina, Master."

"Well, Mrs. Sirina, I know what you are wondering. My school does not teach magic and martial arts, not only because such skills require extremely high talent, but most importantly, because these skills cannot help to the vast majority of people who suffer.”

"I can't quite agree with what you said. My husband and three sons are all knights. It hurts me to lose them, but they are also my pride. How can I fight against those warriors without these outstanding warriors? What about the brutal bandits protecting the weak villagers?"

"Mrs. Sirina, I did not deny the value of fighters. Forces that can protect themselves are indeed necessary for survival. But when looking at a problem, sometimes you can't just look at it from a single perspective. I don't know if you have thought about it. Such a question, why do those bandits want to be bandits?"

"Uh... isn't it because of the evil in your heart and willing to degenerate?"

"There are indeed such evil-minded thugs, but more of them are actually forced by life. I used to do everything I could to help the poor who had nothing to eat, but I soon discovered that no matter how much bread I had , Those poor people are still poor people. I helped some but not all, and I couldn’t save the whole life for a while. Because the bread I donated to them is gone after eating, and I don’t have endless bread in my hand. So in After I radiated all the food, some refugees starved to death, while others ran to become bandits in order not to starve to death, you should have seen such a scene, right?"

Lu De's words resonated with the old lady. She also tried to help the poor during the disaster years, but the things she took out sometimes couldn't even help a single person, let alone the endless tide of refugees. .

Seeing that the old lady was thinking, Lu De understood that she had listened. This shows that she is not the kind of stubborn person who clings to reason, and being able to communicate is better than anything else!

"I thought about it for a long time, and finally realized a truth. Poverty is a breeding ground for evil. It will kill good people and turn good people into bad people. To help the poor, it is not enough to distribute bread alone. To make people They have the skills to survive, and this is the power to overcome poverty!"

"What you said is very reasonable, but... Is it really necessary to build a school to teach these life skills? Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to belittle, just...how should I put it! Many skills I think You don’t need to learn it at all, right? Just like tailoring, I know how to do it, and I’m very good at it, just follow my mother and watch her make it since I was a child, and I will do it naturally.”

"Ma'am, with all due respect, the process you watch by your mother is learning, and your mother is your teacher. But the problem is... not everyone has a mother who is good at handicrafts, and not everyone ... can have a mother!"

"Uh...this..."

"In addition, please don't underestimate any skills, not only tailoring, but also farming. Many people think that farming is just digging a hole and burying the seeds in the soil. If it is so simple, there is no such thing in this world. There will be so much unharvested land, and there will be no famine from time to time."

As Lude said, he led the old lady to the flower bed in front of the student dormitory, pointed to the budding flowers inside and asked.

"Mrs. Sirina, what do you think of these flowers?"

"It's very beautiful. I believe it will be very beautiful when they are all in full bloom. If possible, I also want to hire this gardener to help me create a beautiful garden."

"I didn't hire any professional gardeners. These flowers were planted by the students of the College of Agriculture. They have always been responsible for the greening of the campus. This will be counted as a score for their graduation grades."

"Students did it?"

"Yes, there are still a few experimental fields and its own breeding farm in the school. When I visit the school later, I can take you and everyone there to have a look. These children will use the professional knowledge they have learned in the school to become do-it-yourselfers. Excellent farmers and trainers, they can create more food for the world. In the future, I will set up a research institute in the school to lead the best graduates to improve and develop technology. Only by continuously improving productivity, Only in this way can more people not suffer from hunger, eventually lose their lives or go astray. This is the way of doing good that I have learned over the years!"

The warehouse knows the etiquette, and the food and clothing know the honor and disgrace!

Everything Lude said is the "absolute truth" that he has lived in in his previous life, and countless generations, with blood and tears.

Even though the greed of the people will still cause injustice in the world, and the poor cannot completely disappear, but as long as the productivity increases and more resources can be allocated, the lives of the vast majority of people will be improved, so that everyone can Think freely about how to improve the system.

"When there is enough food for everyone, everyone will think about how to distribute it, but if the food is not enough for everyone, then those who have wrong thoughts will not just want to eat more and take more."

"What you mean...I see."

Seeing that the old lady nodded thoughtfully, and even a small ball of belief emerged from the top of her head, Lude knew that his words just now were not in vain.The truth he said is not complicated, but there are always some people who are unwilling to understand it.

Soon, the international students put away their luggage and returned to the open space in front of the gate to gather under the guidance of the senior dormitory manager.Looking at the expressions of the students, everyone is full of expectations for the upcoming campus life.

End of this chapter

For Lu De, this school, which has been built with a lot of money and painstaking efforts, is the most proud achievement in the past three years since he traveled to the present. Above the gods!

Moreover, he not only wants to recruit children from ordinary families, but also hopes to attract some noble children to come in. The old lady's children are his primary goals.It doesn't matter that the three-year-old baron himself is not up to the admission standards. The kindergarten and preschool classes attached to the school are already on the agenda.
