Working Prophet
Chapter 102 From Green Field to Pingdingshan
The past week or so has probably been the busiest time since Li Yu joined the new company.
On the one hand, he needs to make a plan for the development of the church territory, and this part of the work has actually started very early.
Whether it was wandering around in order to open a map, collecting information on various flora, fauna and minerals in the green fields, or chatting with various people near Teacup Castle to understand the customs, customs and productivity levels of Bratis, it was actually all for This is doing research.
This has also been 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. It may seem like you are working hard, but the result is often half the result with half the effort.
It was precisely because of the good foundation he had laid previously that even if he encountered an unexpected incident such as the lizard people migrating out of the swamp, which caused him to pick up thousands of followers in vain, Li Yu was not in a hurry and quickly revised and formulated a new plan. plan.
Let these lizardmen settle down quickly 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 prophet status, which made the lizard people obey his words.
However, the way the lizard people worship Saturday is still the same as before worshiping Sosokus, but with a different name, and some of the particularly brutal and bloody rituals were banned by Li Yu.
If Li Yu doesn't plan to continue to develop new believers, but just wants to guard the life of this group of lizardmen, it's not a big problem.
Anyway, the lizard people are quite down-to-earth, and they give them all the faith they deserve.
But Li Yu is obviously not satisfied with being so isolated. His goal is to let everyone on the entire continent believe in Saturday.
Therefore he had to create a more widespread 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 Bratis continent. 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, because everyone has different priorities, they tend to overemphasize its characteristics in a certain aspect.
But most of the world's religions are made up of a combination 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 constantly add patches to it.
It's like if you pick any app 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 and instead told a salvation story in the style of a classic Japanese RPG game.
Among them, Li Yu did not try to downplay his identity as an outsider on Saturday, but further strengthened and used this point.
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 land outside its kingdom of God, so Saturday sent his own prophet to come here to rescue them.
Lead them to build a kingdom of God on land.
When Li Yu said this, a lizardman believer raised his hand and said, "What is the Kingdom of God on land?"
"Good question." Li Yu turned on the projector.
A city promotional video of Pingdingshan began to play on the white curtain not far away.
The promotional video is not long, only about five minutes long, and the lizard people can't understand what is being said in it, but this does not prevent them from pricking up their ears, widening their eyes, and staring intently at the endless scenes on the curtain. Changing screen.
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. The lizard people would not be able to digest it and would not understand what the contents were. On the contrary, it would not be as effective as the one in ordinary cities.
Anyway, whether it is 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 in the promotional film, the tidy roads, and the small iron boxes flowing on the roads, the faces of the lizard people are all written with director Ang Lee's famous quotes.
——I couldn’t understand it, but I was shocked!
And the aerial viewing angle from top to bottom also made them exclaim, not to mention the amazing time-lapse photography, which made some lizard people kneel on the spot.
Coupled with the happy smiles of all the people who appeared in the promotional film, it makes people sincerely believe that the people living in it 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 indeterminate amount of time, the lizard man opened his mouth and said in a trembling and excited voice, "This, is this the kingdom of God where my 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, but 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 hatred between them before, is our family and comrades-in-arms, and everyone is working hard for the same goal."
