The scorching sun will pierce the British Isles in the long darkness, but at this moment, Bacon, the little friar with the necklace of the cross, cannot yet feel the movement of the wheels of history, but he has clearly seen the most widespread faith in the New World.

The temple was not far from the military yamen, and not far from the temporary residence of the two Englishmen waiting for a reply, and before going out, Bacon asked the guards to go to the timber yard and ask for a small square sign, which was written in Chinese 'English envoy station' and hung at the door of their small courtyard.

He also thought that this small sign could help his friend Drake make a few deals, but it turned out to be not as good as he imagined - as soon as the wooden sign was hung out, it was approached by the inspection department and the local security guard.

They were reported by the people.

After the inspection department and the earth protection armor left, the wooden sign was changed to 'Siyi Linguan', and they were ordered not to change the handwriting without authorization, and the flag army guarding them was also quarreled with by the commander.

But no one quarreled with them, which was an extraordinary feeling for the two Englishmen, who had always thought that the two Ming soldiers standing at the door were the guards who protected them.

But at this time, they saw that something was wrong - in the eyes of others, those two banner troops seemed to be their masters.

It's like incurring other people's dissatisfaction because they don't discipline their pets or something.

The Banner Army was unhappy, which naturally affected Bacon's afternoon tour of Changsheng, and he was originally scheduled to go to the market first and then go to the Tao Village on the outskirts of Changsheng to watch the pottery processing.

Daojun Temple is full of tourists, incense is around, every seven days of the temple fair, 70% of the population flow of Changsheng County is to come here to incense and ask for blessings.

"They all seem to be religious, what kind of pagan devil are they praying to?"

"You people are always so ignorant that when you see other people's gods, you say that they are pagan devils, and the Spaniards used to be like that."

With the banner army saying this, Bacon was very shocked to see the banner army next to him pull out a short sword slightly longer than a dagger from his back waist, took out a small jar of grease from his waist and put it in a bamboo tube and smeared it on the sword, pointed to a few Spaniards who came not far away, raised his eyebrows and said, "You see how honest they are now...... Those boots are awesome, and this king is really rich. ”

It was no one else who was approaching, Judge Mation of Potosi had just come out of the market shop, the soft hat on his head had been replaced by a Ming hair scarf, and he was still wrapped in a square flat scarf made of silk and satin, and a pair of gold silk cloud boots were on his feet at the end of the stockings, and the guards stayed outside the temple, and walked into the Daojun Temple respectfully holding a touch of things that looked like grass and wood ash in both hands.

"What is he doing, is he holding ash in his hands?"

At Bacon's question, the same young banner army sneered: "At first glance, you have never fought, it is gunpowder, put in the arquebus, he is going to worship Daojun, in the new continent, you Siyi with different faces want to do business, you have to worship Daojun, it works!" ”

"And after you finish worshipping Daojun, go back and worship your god, it's okay, Grandpa Daojun doesn't have the same knowledge as your kid, don't get angry, you know? This is, in our words, magnanimous. ”

Bacon was stunned when he heard this: "Your gods, eat gunpowder, and do business?" ”

Xiao Qijun shook his head lightly: "He eats everything, he receives what you offer, our rules here are like this, if you do business here, what kind of business you do, just take a share and offer it to the temple, so there is everything in the temple." ”

Saying that the flag army still has a little meaning to explain, he said: "There is not gunpowder in the temple all the time, Chang Sheng does not buy and sell gunpowder, it may be that the Westerners bought it from the military government and came to pay tribute." ”

Bacon didn't want to quarrel with the banner army, but he looked at the disdain in Mattien's eyes who came out of the temple of Daojun satisfied, although he was different from the sect in Spain, he also looked down on this kind of behavior, and what he saw and heard reminded him of the legends of people on the other side of the ocean in the past.

He said silently: "There is a devil guarding the end of the sea...... Tempting the heart to fall. ”

"What are you muttering?"

Looking at the flag army who seriously oiled the knife, Bacon lowered his eyebrows and said with a little stubbornness: "This cannot wash away your original sin, everyone is guilty, only by believing in my lord can you wash away your sins and let your souls go to heaven after death." ”

Bacon was very genuine, he was almost a natural preacher, pretending to have the audacity to avoid the hand of the blade to pull the flag army: "Come with me, I will tell you how to wash away the guilt on behalf of the Lord......

No matter how sincere you are, you can't stand people from not appreciating it.

"Don't move your hands and feet, stay away from me, and I'll tie you a rope like this."

"I know that you guys, everyone is guilty, and if you believe in your stupid thing, you won't be guilty, but pull it down."

Bacon hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, it is precisely because of sin that we should serve the Lord Almighty, this is ......"

Before he finished speaking, the banner army thrust the dagger to the side, took out a small notebook from his arms, and said while flipping it over: "I know that all of you are guilty, and the Ming Dynasty knows that you are guilty, so you don't need to spread the whole world, otherwise how can it stink." ”

"The sores on the top of the head and the pus on the soles of the feet will stink, I'll look for it, which chapter is coming? Daojun has given a name to your mentality, you people with very white skin have made a big mistake in the New World, bullying men and women, killing people, setting fire and robbing property, you are deeply responsible, you have found it! ”

Xiao Qijun's expression was also extremely serious, raised a finger and turned his head to stare at Bacon, and said, "Iberian disease!" In past studies, it has been found that the unenlightened minds of the people of Europa-Iberian are fond of telling those they meet about their crimes, blaming them for the mistake of their ancestors for creating them, and willingly being abused and enslaved by the Pope. ”

"This kind of mental incompleteness that does not dare to take responsibility, is good at shirking responsibility, and is willing to be masochistic, was first raised in the fifth year of Wanli, and this record is only to warn the people not to be deceived by it, and when he mentions the 'Almighty Lord', when he looks at this person with his head held high, such an answer can expose the Pope's lies and save him from awakening."

As he spoke, the young Xiaoqijun put his notebook behind him with his index finger, looked at Bacon with his hands behind his back and his chest held high as requested, and said, "You say that your god is omnipotent, can it make you explode now?" ”

Bacon breathed a little, and was about to respond, when the little banner army had already waved his hand, picked up the note, looked at it, and continued: "If he admits that he can't, then his master is not omnipotent, and if he firmly answers that the lord lets him die, he can die immediately, and he must correct it, not a dead ear, but an explosion." ”

"He will use the sophistry of his lord to wash away the guilt of the flood that he has caused, and he will make a great flood now, and he will call his servant unfathomable and unfathomable, and the lie will be self-defeating, but his people are strange, and it is inevitable that he will meet a person whose face is as thick as Chen Yuegang, and he can clearly tell that his lord can make his soul ascend to heaven after death, and your lord can make his soul and body ascend to heaven after death with just one shot."

Bacon's words were all held back in his stomach, and he stared at him for a long time before he stammered and asked, "This, this is the Bible of the 'Taoist King' that you believe in?" ”

"What the Bible."

Xiao Qijun sneered at the ignorant again, turned his hand and glanced at the notes in his palm, and said while putting it in his arms: "The Guide to Preventing Deaths", written by Mr. Changji of the Oriental Military Government, the third edition of Changsheng Bookstore in the sixth year of Wanli, priced at one hundred and twenty Tongbao. ”
