Ye Fan picked up the teacup, drank the tea in one gulp, and said: "What the laity do in the world is either for fame or profit, and if you want to open something, it is for peace of mind."
The practice of your Holy Spirit Sect is not indifferent to fame and fortune, so ...... For your own benefit, of course".
The holy aunt nodded, and said with a smile: "Mr. Ye really has a lot of experience, and he is young, but he can see it very thoroughly. β
As she spoke, the holy aunt asked Shi Lanyu next to her to pour tea for Ye Fan.
Shi Lanyu poured tea and said curiously: "Brother Ye Fan, aren't you afraid that my master will do things in the tea?"
Ye Fan smiled faintly, "If a cup of tea can pour me here, how dare I come in with you."
"Mr. Ye is really confident, it seems that our Holy Spirit Sect is really insignificant in your eyes", the Holy Aunt said.
"How can it be insignificant, you don't dare to let Xia ** Fang easily step into this million mountains", Ye Fan said.
The Holy Aunt smiled a little helplessly and shook her head, "Mr. Ye, you and I actually know that the current Xia State government is only too lazy to take care of us because of the small influence of our Holy Spirit Sect.
If they really want to deal with our Holy Spirit Sect, I'm afraid they don't even need to send people over, and they will not be able to resist if they directly launch a few missiles or send a few planes outside. β
Of course, Ye Fan also knew that it was impossible for Xia Fang to really be unable to help the Holy Spirit Sect, and he was simply too lazy to care about the poor and remote places here.
"You asked me to come in just to talk about this?" Ye Fan guessed and asked, "Do you think...... The Holy Spirit Sect is no longer safe?"
The Holy Aunt nodded solemnly and said, "In fact, our Holy Spirit Sect has already reached a dead end, and the old body doesn't know how many years we can hold on." β
"Oh?" Ye Fan wondered, "I see that you have more than a dozen strongholds, and when you walked in just now, there are hundreds of sect members, and the millions of people in the mountains also respect you, why are you in danger?"
The Holy Aunt smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Ye, do you know what the scale of the Holy Spirit Sect was fifty years ago?"
Ye Fan shook his head, he didn't know much about the Gu God Sect in the past or the Holy Spirit Sect now, and the information given by Tianyan was only approximate.
The Holy Aunt sighed and said with a look of recollection: "At that time, in our Holy Spirit Sect, in addition to the left and right Dharma protectors, there were also five poison elders, seventy-two guardian elders, and there were more than 2,000 sect members.
In this million mountains, there are 600,000 believers, who come every year to make offerings and worship Emperor Wa's mother......
At that time, the congregants and believers were not obsessed with the world outside the mountains at all, and everyone had the most devout faith and guarded the millions of mountains together. β
Speaking of this, the holy aunt said with regret on her face: "However, times have changed...... In the past 50 years, the changes in Xia Kingdom have been earth-shaking.
People's hearts are not ancient, and more and more people are beginning to be obsessed with the drunken world outside.
In particular, after the establishment of Nachi City, the Xia government took great pains to build highways and railways around the millions of mountains, and moved all kinds of tempting and vulgar things to the outside of the millions of mountains.
I know that they are deliberately trying to turn our sacred million mountains into their own property without spending a single soldier!
And they did...... They are constantly corrupting our pure-hearted congregants and believers with some dirty interests!
As a result of this demonic wind, there are now less than 100,000 believers left in the entire million-strong mountain, and there are less than 500 cultists left......
"Wait a minute!" When Ye Fan heard this, he couldn't help but stop, crying and laughing: "I said Holy Aunt...... I think that's up for debate.
Isn't it a good thing for the country to build roads and modern cities to bring prosperity to the millions of people of the mountains?
They didn't burn, kill, loot, or sabotage, even if you believers and members decreased, it was just their own choice......
Do you have to live in poverty in the mountains, but you can't go out and live a better life? just to believe in your Holy Spirit?"
"No!!" The holy aunt suddenly showed a trace of anger and fierce light in her eyes, judging the two of them from her previous peaceful appearance, she took the case and said, "They are all tempted by the Xia government!
For thousands of years, we have guarded millions of mountains, and in all dynasties, nothing like this has ever happened!
Our congregations and believers will never betray their beliefs! All of this is caused by the contemporary Xia government, and they are secretly playing tricks!!
They are just trying to destroy us, and they are constantly eroding every inch of our land with this despicable and insidious plan! Those who are in power in the Xia Kingdom are the root of all evil!!"
Ye Fan took a deep breath, looked helpless, and looked at Shi Lanyu on the side.
I found that the girl was standing there, and she seemed to have complicated eyes.
Ye Fan couldn't help but smile and said, "Shi Lanyu, do you think your master is right, what do you think?"
The Holy Gu looked at her disciple, "Xiaoyu, you should be able to understand the master's meaning best, right?"
Shi Lanyu lowered his head, pondered for a while, and said, "I hate the world outside the mountain, I like the Holy Spirit Sect, this is the purest place."
"That's right!That's it!" The Holy Aunt nodded with satisfaction and said, "The filthy world outside, the people's hearts are not ancient, and the world is hot and cold! Those people in power in the Xia Kingdom are just using some petty profits to confuse our believers, but they are leading them into the abyss of no return!!"
Ye Fan frowned and said, "Holy Aunt, your apprentice just said that he hates the outside world, but he didn't say that the dirty world outside is definitely not good."
The Holy Aunt laughed and said, "Mr. Ye, do you know that since the Xia Kingdom began to build roads to our millions of mountains, the wild beasts and rare birds in our mountains have been constantly poached.
Our girls in the mountains were abducted and sold, bullied, and even killed by poachers with guns and thrown into the wilderness!
If it weren't for our Holy Spirit Sect, which constantly sent its members on patrol and used some traps to defend against those foreign invaders, the inhabitants of these millions of mountains would have been even more miserable!
If the group of people in power in the Xia Kingdom are for the good of our millions of people, then why is there such a disaster!?"
Ye Fan frowned, he believed these words, but this holy aunt was obviously looking at these inevitable historical evolutions from a narrow perspective.
"Holy Aunt...... Everything has to look at both sides, I know you don't want to watch the Holy Spirit teach and decline in your hands, but some things can be changed by not one person, a few people."
"Do you think I'm doing it for my own selfish gain?" asked the Holy Aunt rhetorically.
"Even if it's not your selfish interests, it's just the interests of the Holy Spirit Sect," Ye Fan said, "I can understand that you are now sending people to intervene in the world and meddle in the underground gangs."
You want to control some underground channels outside the mountain step by step, so that you can serve your Holy Spirit Sect, and you can use this to blackmail the Xia government and make trouble if you don't compromise.
But let's be honest, you're just playing with fire**...... Because once the Xia government knows that you are trying to control all the underground clans, they will definitely come to exterminate you as soon as possible.
You also know that you can't really resist Xia ** Fang, they just don't treat you ruthlessly for the sake of everyone being compatriots in Xia Kingdom. β
The Holy Aunt stared at Ye Fan with flickering eyes, and said, "Mr. Ye is right, our Holy Spirit Sect ...... After all, the strength is weak now. But...... If Lucifer, King of Hell, had become one of our own, it might have been different."
