The Whole Country Develops a Different World

Such anti-human things as blood sacrifices generally occur in the southern and northern borders, and all of them are concentrated in major cities and towns, but there are no rural areas with relatively backward living standards.

This is mainly because the countryside in the world of Crimson Red Eyes is not a village in the traditional sense, but a hunting village. Every village lives in an environment surrounded by dangerous species, and every villager is a natural hunter. This makes them admire power very much, only believe in themselves, and will not pin their hopes on illusory gods.

Even if some villages are favored by the Anning Church and begin to believe in the Anning Church, the level of belief is not as crazy as the common people in the city.

The particularity of the villages made it difficult for the upper class of the empire to reach out to them. The only means of exploiting them was the annual tax collection. However, if the exploitation is excessive, most of these villages will directly refuse to pay taxes. Faced with this situation, most local officials have no way to do it.

The local army is no match for these villagers in the dense forest, and they cannot command the frontier army. This also makes the society extremely dark, but the villages far outside of civilization are at best poor and destitute, not to the point of starving to death.

With the large number of patrol teams of the Third Army conducting random spot checks on cities and towns, 56 incidents of blood sacrifice of babies were quickly detected in the southern and northern borders. No matter how strict the Third Legion's inspections were, it still couldn't prevent such things from happening. Because the child is in their hands, they have many opportunities to do such anti-human things, and it is too late when the Third Legion finds out.

Faced with this situation, the Third Legion is also preparing countermeasures. Since they sacrificed their children for their faith, they should use their faith to stop them.

Canal City, Air Force Base.

A large armed helicopter landed slowly, and a very handsome man in a white robe stepped down. The temperament of the man is very unique, giving people a very peaceful and comfortable feeling. This man is the leader of the Anning Church.

Next, two clergymen in religious attire walked down. Looking at the huge air force base and the parked steel monsters, everyone felt an indescribable sense of shock in their hearts.

Then the Bishop of Anning Church, led by several soldiers, came all the way to the headquarters.

At this time, in the command headquarters, all the senior officials of the Third Army gathered together.

The soldier gave a military salute to the senior officers of the Third Legion in the headquarters, and said, "Report! The representatives of the Anning Church have arrived."

Then the soldiers turned and left the room.

After a few polite words from both sides, the Bishop of Anning Church took the empty seat in front of him.

Li Anguo directly cut to the topic, saying: "The Empire wants the Church of Anning to stop the recent blood sacrifice of babies, and the Third Legion hopes that the Church can come up with effective plans or actions."

"The church feels very guilty and sorry about this incident." The handsome face of the Bishop of Anning Church was full of remorse.

"A few years ago, the church headquarters had been warning local churches against leading believers to perform this blood sacrifice. However, due to the fact that the church headquarters was too weak, and several other bishops united with local noble officials, the headquarters almost lost control of the local church. Church influence."

The Anning Church can be said to be aristocratic in success and noble in defeat. The original intention of the Bishop of the Anning Church was to use the strength and financial resources of the nobles to relieve the suffering civilians. However, what happened later made the Bishop of Anning Church realize that his thoughts were too naive.

How could the exploiters give up the oppression of the exploited because of a few teachings, they just changed a way. In essence, the oppression of the people remains the same, or even stronger, and the people are oppressed willingly because of their fanatical beliefs.

This has completely violated the original intention of the Anning Church bishop to establish the Anning Church. However, by the time the Anning Church leader found out, it was already too late.

Over the years, he has been trying every means to eliminate these distorted local churches. However, no matter what method he uses, the power of the church headquarters will eventually be too weak to achieve the desired effect. Even later, the bishop of Anning Church began to seek help from outside forces.

For example, he started to cooperate with the Revolutionary Army a year ago. The Church provided the Revolutionary Army with the assistance and support of the people at the bottom, and the Revolutionary Army helped the Anning Church to clear the local churches. However, after only three short months of cooperation, the Bishop of Anning Church immediately realized that the revolutionary army and the nobles were the same.

Instead of helping the headquarters of the Anning Church to clean up the distorted local churches, the Revolutionary Army accepted bribes from the local nobles and churches. The bishop of the Anning Church was very disappointed by the revolutionary army's behavior of taking both sides.

"Then what is the church going to do?" Li Anguo asked.

The leader of the Anning Church thought for a while, and then replied: "The church intends to send a large number of clergy to spread the word in the northern and southern borders. To spread the true teachings and make the people realize that blood sacrifice is a wrong act."

Li Anguo was not surprised by the method mentioned by the leader of the Anning Church. The greatest strength of the Anning Church is its influence on the people. To really stop this kind of behavior, they can only rely on their beliefs. But Li Anguo is not satisfied with this method, because the efficiency is too low.

On the third day of the purely seven days of abundance, nearly 100 incidents of blood sacrifices to babies have occurred, and the seventh day of the real celebration has not yet come. By the time the Anning Church's persuasion took effect, the celebration would have ended long ago.

Li Anguo said: "This method is too slow. Next, the empire will give support to the church, open those local churches that are blocked, and help the church hold a grand seven days of abundance."

Blocking is worse than sparseness. The Third Army intends to use this celebration to let the oppressed people vent their inner pressure. At the same time, the Third Army intends to hold a liquidation trial on the seventh day, the highest peak of the celebration.

Trial all the nobles to attract the attention of the people, and at the same time use these nobles to increase the people's goodwill towards the Eastern Xia Empire.

Hearing Li Anguo's words, Anning Church and his group were very surprised. Shouldn't it be time to cancel the seven days of abundance to avoid blood sacrifices?

The leader of the Anning Church thought for a while, and immediately understood the intention of the Eastern Xia Empire. Instead of suppressing this celebration, it is better to let all civilians participate. After all, no matter how suppressed the Third Legion was, some believers who wanted to sacrifice babies with blood could still find a way to do so.

Next, the two sides entered the next topic, which was the plan for revising the teachings of the Anning Church. This is the main purpose of the Anning Church leader's visit today.

After a friendly conversation between the two parties, a new Tranquility Church doctrine was freshly baked.

Since the education at the headquarters of the Anning Church is very much in line with the moral values ​​of the Eastern Xia Empire, most of them guide believers to survive strongly and face life positively. So the Eastern Xia Empire didn't make too many changes, but just added one in front.

[Under the guidance and approval of His Majesty the Emperor, Anning Church will guide believers to contribute to social construction]

...

In the next few days, with the support of the Eastern Xia Empire, the largest and most prosperous seven-day celebration since then will begin. Numerous red and yellow decorations hung high, and all the towns became extremely festive.

At the same time, hundreds of thousands of tons of food of various kinds were transported in, and the Eastern Xia Empire announced that the 7-day celebration of abundance would be jointly organized by the Third Legion and the headquarters of the Church of Tranquility. During these 7 days, the Eastern Xia Empire will provide food for everyone for free, and everyone can revel to their heart's content.

When the residents knew that the Eastern Xia Empire allowed and supported the holding of the Prosperous Seven-Day Celebration, they all felt very incredible without exception. After all, what happened during this period has seriously damaged the order established by the Eastern Xia Empire. According to their understanding of the Third Army during this period, what these soldiers hate most is people who break the rules.

If someone broke the rules because of the seven days of prosperity, then this celebration should be impossible to hold. But now the Eastern Xia Empire not only didn't stop them, but turned into the organizer and provided them with various delicacies.

As the news spread, all the people began to fall into a carnival. Countless people walked on the street enjoying all kinds of delicacies, and some people with special talents were hired by the Third Army to perform in designated places.

At the same time, the Third Army also dispatched countless military trucks to the surrounding villages, sending the people in the villages all the way into nearby towns or cities.

And these villagers with martial arts entered the town and saw some people performing acrobatics on the streets, and they were able to get a lot of money tickets issued by the Eastern Xia Empire. Some villagers directly found an open place and performed various martial arts.

All the cities and towns in the area controlled by the Eastern Xia Empire became lively, and countless people reveled in the streets. There are mobile stalls selling all kinds of delicacies on the streets, acrobatic troupes performing acrobatics, hunters showing martial arts skills, and even villagers who bring in dangerous corpses for sale...

During this celebration, the people can eat white bread that only the nobles could eat before, and drink all kinds of delicious drinks from the Eastern Xia Empire. Everyone feels as if they are living in a dream, in heaven, and it turns out that the world can be so beautiful.

If this is a beautiful dream, then I hope this dream will last forever.

For the first time in more than ten years, the people smiled from the bottom of their hearts, and felt that they were still alive for the first time. This era full of chaos and darkness has completely become a thing of the past in this carnival.

Soldiers of the Third Legion did not participate in this celebration, they were responsible for maintaining the natural nature of the celebration. A patrol team composed of 10 heavily armed Dongxia soldiers shuttled through the streets and alleys, maintaining law and order throughout the celebration.

The extremely indifferent, machine-like soldiers of the Third Legion were incompatible with the festive scene around them.

During this carnival, the psychological pressure of the people who had been exploited for many years was gradually released, and the people's sense of belonging to the Eastern Xia Empire grew at an incredible speed. It is believed that after this celebration, the reputation of the Eastern Xia Empire among the people will completely surpass that of the Anning Church.

Coupled with the announcement of the new teachings of the Anning Church, everyone knows that gods can exist, but only with the permission of the Eastern Xia Empire.

...

Four days later, on the seventh day of the Seven-day Abundance Celebration, the entire celebration reached its peak. Almost all the people joined the celebration.

The blood sacrifice incidents that had happened every day disappeared without a trace, because the Eastern Xia Empire reopened the church of Anning Church. All the believers went to the church to worship, and at the same time listened to the teachings of the priests sent by the Anning Church headquarters.

And the night raid team, who are aboriginals, also got a day off, allowing them to participate in the celebration of the arrival of this new era.

The members of the night attack team took off their military uniforms, changed into their daily clothes, and walked on the spacious streets of the imperial capital.

"Oh! It's really lively!" Leonai looked at the bustling scene around him, rows of shops selling various foods.

Everyone in the night attack was affected by the festive scene around them, and everyone smiled more or less unconsciously. At the same time, their hearts were full of emotions. Most of the people they saw before had only numbness and pain in their eyes. And now their eyes are full of joy, and hope for the future.

Leonai turned around and waved his hands at the others, "Let's go! How about going for a drink on such a happy day?"

"You big-headed ghost!" Ma Yin glared at the woman whose breasts were bigger than her head, "On such a festive day, I don't want to drag a few dead people back."

Najie Xitan also stood up to stop her and said, "Hahaha, Leonai should stop drinking today, or he will miss the fireworks at night, and it will be too late to regret."

"Okay." Upon hearing the fireworks, Leonai immediately gave up her plan to have a drink, and then she turned her attention to Lubbock.

After Najie Xitan took the lead and walked in front, Leonai slowed down and walked side by side with Lubbock.

"Lubbock, how long are you going to delay?" Leone asked.

Lubbock looked away guiltily, and said falteringly, "Wait...wait a minute, I'm not ready yet."

"Psychological preparation?" Leone looked at Lubbock contemptuously, "When you are mentally prepared, the eldest child will be born."

Regarding the situation between Najie Xitan and Lubbock, everyone in the night attack was anxious and speechless. Obviously they like each other, but these two guys are very timid in front of their feelings. Najie Xitan was too embarrassed to express her heart first, and Lubbock was a complete big counselor, and every time she wanted to express her love, she would shrink back on the spot.

"Impossible." Lubbock shook his head again and again.

"Nothing is impossible," Leonai showed a weird smile.

Afterwards, the night raiders walked on the streets of the imperial capital, shuttled through various stalls and acrobatic troupes, ate various delicacies, and drank a drink called cola.

Everyone's face, like the people around them, smiled unconsciously, even if Chi Tong rarely smiled. This is their ideal society, and this is the beauty they want to pursue even if they risk their lives for it.

They succeeded, and they reached that ideal society.

At noon, I played a morning night attack and sat on the ground in a park, surrounded by countless people sitting on the ground with various foods, watching the clown who was performing acrobatics in the middle.

As the clown demonstrated a high altitude, the crowd applauded after the tightrope walk.

"good!"

Ten minutes later, the night strikers walked out of the park, intending to go to other places. I heard that the palace is specially open today.

Just as the night raiders walked out of the park, a man at the gate of the cemetery across the road caught their attention.

The man has snow-white hair and holds three white flowers in his hands. If you look closely, you can see a faint white light emanating from the man's body.

The man turned his head slowly, his pure white eyes glanced at Ye Xie's crowd, then he turned and entered the cemetery.

Everyone in the night raid was stunned, they recognized who this person was, wasn't this person the childhood sweetheart of Shayou and Iyeas?

Seeing Tazmi, although the night raiders were surprised, they were not surprised. They had known for a long time that the special security forces had accepted the Zhaoan of the Eastern Xia Empire, and Chitong had visited her sister a few days ago.

"Tazmi!" Shayou immediately realized and paid attention to the past.

When Iyeas saw Shayou running into the cemetery, he realized that he followed suit. Everyone in the night attack looked at each other, and then entered the cemetery.

In the cemetery, a white-haired man stood quietly in front of three side-by-side tombstones, looking at the tombstones with pure white eyes.

"Tazmi!" Looking at this unusually familiar yet unfamiliar figure in front of her, Shayou subconsciously said his name, but she didn't know what to say next.

Tatsumi turned around slowly, looked at this companion who grew up with her, and said, "Shayou, long time no see."

"Tazmi, what's wrong with you?" When Shayou stood in front of Tazmi, she realized that her childhood sweetheart seemed to have changed.

But she couldn't tell what had changed, she just felt that Tazmi was standing in front of her at this moment, but it felt so far away to her.

Huh~

A gentle breeze blew by, rustling the surrounding trees. Tatsumi didn't answer Shayou's question, but just looked at her quietly.

Seeing that Tazmi didn't answer her own question, Shayou continued to ask: "Tazmi, let's go back to the village together."

Tatsumi shook his head and said, "I can't go back."

At this time, Iyeyas who had just arrived just overheard Tatsumi's words. He ran directly to Tazmi's body, put his hands on his shoulders, and asked, "Tazmi, what nonsense are you talking about? Why can't you go back to the village with us!? Everyone is waiting for you to go home!"

"Now the war is over, we are no longer enemies! Tazmi let us go back to the old days, okay?"

Iyeas was very emotional, and his hands tightly grasped Tatsumi's shoulders.

Ever since they learned that Tazmi was not dead and accepted Zhao'an from the empire, Iyeas and Shayou had been looking forward to Tazmi returning to the village with them. Now that they have finally met once, the two of them must catch this guy and ask him out.

"The war is indeed over, but my war is not over yet." Tatsumi stretched out his hand and pushed away Iyeas' hands on his shoulders and took two steps back.

In the eyes of these two steps, it seemed that there was an invisible wall between Tazmi and them.

"I can't go back, all I can do now is keep going." Tazmi glanced at the tombstone behind him.

Now this society has indeed become a society where everyone can have enough food and clothing, but Tatsumi still cannot forgive himself, at least for now he is not qualified to enjoy happiness.

...

At night, near 12 o'clock, the whole land is still brightly lit at this time. Everyone stopped the carnival, looked up at the sky, and waited for the arrival of a new era.

00.00

Whoosh!

An incomparably huge firework rose into the sky carrying colorful rays of light.

Boom!

With a loud noise, the fireworks exploded in an instant, colorful flames bloomed in the sky, and a flower named Shengshi illuminated the dark sky and illuminated the people on the earth.

Everyone looked at the constantly flying and exploding fireworks in the sky, raised their hands and shouted heartily, cheering for the arrival of a new era. There were excited smiles on the faces of the people, and they cheered with all their strength, while tears flowed down uncontrollably.

The fireworks of the prosperous age illuminated the whole earth. The era of darkness, chaos and madness has passed, and a new era has arrived.

I have fixed the remaining manuscripts to be sent automatically at 9:00~10:00.
