The scenes of traveling and studying in the Western Continent in the past slowly flowed through my mind like running water. It was such a relaxing and happy time, carefree and free. The classmates and friends in my youth were already somewhat vague. His face seemed to become clear again at this moment. Wu Feng was leaning on the big chair, stroking his forehead with his hands, completely immersed in the memories of the past, and did not even notice that the study door was quietly opened.
It wasn't until the unique and faint body fragrance reached Wu Feng's nose that Wu Feng woke up from his meditation.
"Brother Feng, what's wrong? Is there anything unpleasant?" Next to Ai Lang, the slender girl sat gently on Wu Feng's body.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just recall the past and have some feelings." Wufeng has not yet been completely freed from the emotion of recalling the past, his eyes are still a little confused. The memories of the past have brought him too many things, making it difficult for him to Adjust it.
"Oh? Did Brother Feng recall his travels in the Western Continent? Then tell me." Upon hearing this, the slender beauty became interested, took Wu Feng's arm and shook her.
He pinched the beauty's pink cheeks lovingly, and simply took the beauty into his arms. The fragrance was fragrant, and the smooth body twisted in his tiger arms, which made his heart flutter. "Well, what do you want to hear?"
"Of course I want to hear about your romantic affairs there. Do I also want to hear about what you are studying there?" The beauty replied in a narrow-minded manner.
"Damn girl, you dare to tease me. What age was I at that time? I didn't want to get anything else. I only knew about traveling and gaining experience. Otherwise, I would never have thought of these aspects if I wasn't studying in school. Now that I think about it, it's really a bit strange. What a pity." Wu Feng sighed and shook his head.
"You're not romantic enough. I guess you won't be too lonely in those schools, right?" the beauty said with a joking smile.
"Cha is a classmate of a young boy who was in his prime, vigorous as a scholar, and scolded Fang Qiu. He was like a prince of ten thousand households." Wu Feng's eyes were still full of nostalgia, and his tone was also full of yearning, "I can't remember which sage said this. That’s it, it’s so well described, and it describes the situation of us studying and studying in the college so vividly.”
Seeing the nostalgic look on her beloved's face, the beauty sitting on Wu Feng couldn't help but be curious. In the past, her beloved would have been tempted to make a move in this situation, but today he still remains... She kept calm, which really surprised her.
"Brother Feng, you have been traveling and studying in the Western Continent for so long, so how are the customs and customs in the Western Continent any different from ours?" The curious beauty gently grabbed Ai Lang's neck with a charming look. Silk, Tan Kou asked softly.
Hearing the beauty next to him ask such a question, Wu Feng couldn't help but laugh, "Silly girl, how can the difference in customs and customs between the Western Continent and ours be explained clearly in just two sentences? If you want to explain it in detail, I'm afraid It means that even after three days and three nights, it won't come to an end." Seeing the beauty showing her charming and naive girlish attitude in front of him, Wu Feng's heart was shaken, and his hands unconsciously climbed up to the beauty's breasts in his arms.
Twisting her body, the beauty pouted and said, "Huh, there must be some big difference, right?"
"Haha, there are many big differences. Different races, different customs and habits, different languages, different beliefs. The differences are really huge." Seeing the beauty acting coquettishly, Wu Feng answered a few words casually, while smiling and provoking Opening the cheongsam buttons on the beauty.
"No, it's not good here. Brother Feng, let's go back to the room." As if she could see what her beloved was thinking, the considerate beauty smiled delicately, and quietly placed her lips against Wu Feng's ear and whispered He said, "Sisters are waiting for you in the room."
Wu Feng felt hot in his heart and wanted to get up and carry the beauty back to the room, but when he thought of the situation that Diao Su had just come to report, he had to think about it as soon as possible and come up with a more appropriate countermeasure. If necessary, he had to talk to Xiao Tang After discussing with Su and Qin that such important matters cannot be delayed, he sighed and sat back down.
"What's wrong, Brother Feng, are you worried?" The beauty immediately noticed Ailang's absent-mindedness.
"Well, there is something that I have to think about." Wu Feng didn't want to hide it any more, and said calmly, "Not everything that comes from the Western Continent is good. For example, the belief in religion seems to be better than that of our empire. People have to be more trusting."
"That's not necessarily true. There are not a few believers in Buddhism and Taoism in the empire. Many temples and temples are flourishing, and monks and Taoists can receive tax exemptions from the empire. Even the land properties of temples and temples can also receive tax exemptions. Why not Why? It's just that this aspect doesn't seem to be very prosperous in our northwest due to various reasons." The beauty next to her answered casually.
The beauty's unintentional answer pierced Wu Feng's mind like a bolt of lightning. Wu Feng couldn't help but slap his leg with his palm. Unexpectedly, it hit the beauty's leg. The beauty couldn't help but cry out in pain. Only then did Wu Feng Realizing that he had vented to the wrong person, he quickly comforted the angry beauty.
Yes, since both Buddhism and Taoism are quite prosperous in the empire, the northwest has also become the current religious vacuum zone due to historical reasons and a large number of immigrants in the later period. Instead of letting those bullshit Holy Spirit Cults rush to occupy this religious vacuum. , it is better to strike first and attract the development of Buddhism and Taoism that are in line with one's own interests and are willing to use it, or to compete with the Holy Spirit Sect. At least the original Tang residents of the empire are still inclined to Buddhism and Taoism. , at least have the upper hand at this point.
Thinking of this, Wu Feng suddenly realized that this was a good idea. Regardless of whether it was successful or not, at least it could maintain a balance of power on this side in terms of religion, and no one religion would have an absolute advantage.
Looking further, in fact, the intricate martial arts sects in the empire are also a supplement to religious beliefs, especially those martial arts sects that nominally believe in Buddhism and Taoism. For example, the Changchun Sword School Deng nominally believes in Taoism, and Sects such as Daxiangguo Temple and Baima Temple obviously rely on Buddhist teachings to cultivate the moral cultivation of disciples in addition to practicing martial arts. In addition, it can also play a role in restraining the disciples of the sect.
As for lay sects such as Tianshan Sect and Snow Mountain Sect. Although he has not clearly stated his moral beliefs, judging from the rules of his sect, he should be somewhere between Taoism and the traditional moral concepts of the Tang people. This is one of the reasons why it is difficult for foreign religions such as the Holy Spirit Sect to gain a foothold in areas where the Tang people hold an absolute majority. After all, thousands of years of customs and traditions cannot be abandoned in a day or two.
However, since religions like the Holy Spirit Religion can be so popular in the Western Continent for a while, there must be reasons for their survival and growth. Wu Feng has always believed that if a thing can survive in the world, it must have its reasons for survival. If it is still in If it continues to develop and grow, it means that this thing must have extremely strong vitality, which means that the surrounding environment must have provided it with a very suitable foundation for its development and growth.
Just like the Holy Spirit Cult, it must have the same deep-seated reasons for its popularity in the Western Continent. Now it has begun to appear in its own territory. If it is suppressed blindly, I am afraid the effect may not be good, and it may have side effects. After all, things now Commercial, economic, cultural, and trade exchanges between the two countries are becoming increasingly frequent. It is unrealistic to isolate the spread of these ideological and teachings. But if you adopt a laissez-faire attitude, you will also get things out of control, which requires you to take appropriate measures to deal with it.
It seems that someone once said that water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. Wu Feng can't remember exactly what the water and boat in these two sentences refer to, but it is used as a metaphor for religious power and local rulers. I think it's quite appropriate. There are not only one or two regimes that have been overthrown due to the intensification of conflicts between religious forces in various parts of the mainland. Isn't the Taiping Sect in front of them also using the guise of religion to accumulate people's support and take advantage of the declining situation of the empire to start an uprising? , their purpose could really be to make people all over the world live a good life, Li Wufeng didn't believe their rhetoric at all. Of course, the Holy Spirit Religion is somewhat different from the Taiping Religion, but Wu Feng felt that those two sentences were quite inspiring to him. Since the power of religion is water, the territorial government under his jurisdiction can naturally be a boat. How to prevent the boat from being flooded? Overturning, and having to use the power of water to successfully reach the other side of the boat, is a matter of testing your skills and abilities as a boat operator.
Seeing his Ai Lang fell into deep thought for a while, even the devil's hand that penetrated his bra only squirmed subconsciously. The beauty sitting on Wu Feng knew that her Ai Lang must be thinking about some important issue, and she was like Like a docile kitten, she snuggled quietly in Ai Lang's arms, silently enjoying the rare moment of tenderness.
The complicated past events rolled through Wu Feng's mind like waves. The status of the Holy Spirit Sect in the Western Continent is quite different from that of Buddhism and Taoism in the empire. Not only is it believed by many people, but it can also It has had an unimaginable impact on the political powers of the countries in the Western Continent on the Eastern Continent.
When I left the Western Continent, the Holy Spirit Church in the Western Continent seemed to be undergoing a huge change. However, because I was busy returning to my hometown, the two places were too far apart after I returned, and my understanding of it was blocked. There are many, but one thing Wu Feng firmly believes is that those fanatics who believe in the Holy Spirit Cult will sooner or later look east, because when he was studying and traveling in the Western Continent, he had rejected countless "well-intentioned" persuasion by missionaries and pastors. . When the time comes, will those guys who use the influence of Everbright Holy Spirit Sect to spread the so-called holy grace to every corner of the continent give up on the vast and vast Eastern Continent
