"What's the point of doing this?"

After Liulixian and Bai Shixuan returned to the Longcheng military camp, Aya couldn't bear it any longer, and asked this question that puzzled her for a long time.

"You use Bedivere's wife and daughter as a breakthrough. I agree with this idea, but what are you doing now? Let Liuli and Xiaobai approach them, and then what? That's right, Ms. Marina does value Liuli and Xiaobai very much and love, but do you really think she would betray her faith for the two of them? She is a saint of the church, her faith is so strong that even her beloved Bedivere is unshakable, you think people's hearts are too simple

Wang Lu smiled lightly and looked at Aya with great interest.

Aya sighed, and said: "I don't want to blame you, but it's just a waste of time to go on like this, and they have been in contact for a long time, and it is easy to see the flaws. Marina is obsessed with her heart and hopes to take this opportunity Through the communication channel with Dragon City, and it was recommended by his daughter Ailian, so I didn't doubt Xiaobai and the others. But if you observe carefully, you can still find clues. The saints of the Holy Light Sect are more or less high-level professionals , eyesight is not so weak."

"Aya, you are talking to yourself. When did I say that I would shake Marina's mother and daughter's belief in the Holy Light?"

"Um?"

Wang Lu said: "The devout belief in the Holy Light has never been the focus of conflict. The spiritual essence advocated by the Holy Light is the beautiful moral character in the world, tolerance, kindness, fraternity, etc. How could these qualities hinder Marina and Bede The culprit of Weier? Bedivere is not the demon of the abyss. It is not Marina's belief that causes the conflict between husband and wife, but the church she is in. If there is no Holy Light Religion, how can there be so many troubles

Aya was startled: "You want to provoke her relationship with the church?"

"Actually, there is no need to provoke. The concept of the saint and the church have an irreconcilable contradiction in essence. The concept of the saint is actually a highly idealized product. It requires a woman to be close to the Holy Light and have a pure heart. Only in this way can we have the power of holiness and show the beauty of the holy light to the world. However, how can a person walk in the world without being stained with the red dust? The so-called saint is just a product of abnormal growth under excessive protection, and it is completely ignorant. The world is dangerous. As for the Sect of the Holy Light, although it is gathered because of the belief in the Holy Light, it is essentially an interest organization, and any interest organization will never be pure."

Aya sighed: "That's not bad."

"So the conflict between the saintess and the church will break out sooner or later. At that time, either the saintess chooses to accept the reality, or the church forces them to accept the reality—so the career life of the saintess is generally very short. Marina even has a child so old that she already belongs to the Playing beyond the age, maybe there is Bedivere's credit behind it."

"Bedwell?" Aya closed her eyes, "It really seems like something he would do."

Wang Lu said: "But sooner or later, the conflicts that should erupt will erupt. What we have to do is to push gently before this general trend."

"Specifically?"

"Sometimes, just a few words of rumors can have a great effect. For example, Marina secretly colluded with the Dragon City guards in an attempt to harm the Holy Light Sect by preaching to newcomers as a cover."

"... Will such low-level rumors be useful? After all, Marina is still the saint of the Church.

"Of course it will be useful, because this is the eternal human nature"

Wang Lu paused, and said with deep emotion, "People always prefer rumors to the truth."

"It's just chasing after the wind and shadows"

In the Dragon City Cathedral, it was the time of the assembly, and it was solemn and solemn, but the saint Marina suddenly burst out in the astonished eyes of many clergy, her voice trembled slightly, and contained boiling anger.

"Yulia, do you dare to say out loud what you said in secret just now? Let everyone listen to it

The woman named by Marina was a glamorous female priest. She was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, and then smiled maliciously: "It's nothing, I'm just saying, there have been many rumors in the past two days that you and the two The two Dragon City guards walked very close, and they would see each other every once in a while, and they would spend a whole day seeing each other, and they didn't know what they were talking about secretly. Some people also said that you and the two Dragon City guards took the opportunity of preaching. Colluding with Bedivere secretly may be detrimental to the church..."

"I colluded with the guards of Dragon City secretly, trying to harm the church? You dare to say such ridiculous rumors. If I really wanted to collude with the Lord of Dragon City, how could it have happened back then..." Marina suddenly woke up, He kept silent, suppressed his anger, and blushed, "Yulia, lying is the original sin."

Yulia smiled lightly: "Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean it seriously, I just told the sisters as a joke to let everyone know how stupid the world is, and they dare to spread any nonsense, but the saint has sharp ears I heard it, and I took it seriously. You are the saint of the church, the Holy Light bestowed by the archbishop himself, who dares to doubt your belief in the Holy Light and your loyalty to the church?"

After hearing this, Marina's anger didn't decrease but increased, but she felt unable to do anything.

The rest of the priests reacted differently. Basically everyone present knew that Yulia was deliberately targeting Marina. Back then, she and Marina came from the same monastery, and they were superior to Marina in all aspects. The two got along better. Afterwards, they competed together for the position of saintess. Yulia thought she had a chance to win, but in the end she accidentally lost to Marina, who was inferior to her in all aspects, and she held a grudge ever since. no more peace

It's just that many people present have heard of the rumors Yulia said, and there are many versions circulating. Some are like Yulia said, although they are ridiculous, but there are also some, which satisfy the darkness of many people very well. Psychologically, there is quite a market.

In the past few days, Marina has frequently met privately with two Dragon City guards from Kyushu in her mansion. This is an undoubted fact, and many people have witnessed it with their own eyes. It would be ridiculous to say that Marina was plotting something wrong—even if she plotted something wrong, she wouldn't choose to be in the cathedral. But what about another reason? For example... I heard that the two Kyushu girls were beautiful. And the saints of the Holy Light Sect are probably the group with the highest proportion of homosexuals in mainland China

The various rumors that are circulating today, and the scenes of private meetings between several people are vividly and fascinatingly depicted.

As a topical character, Marina was naturally very angry, not because of the damage to her reputation, but because she thought that the bridge of communication between herself and the guards of Dragon City might be cut off... Whenever she thought about this, she It was difficult to suppress their anger.

After the assembly, she wanted to go back to the mansion to rest, but was called by Archbishop Rowan.

The archbishop has always been like a father to her, majestic yet loving. Now that she is in trouble, she really wants to get comfort from the archbishop.

However, after meeting, Luo Wan's words made her fall into an ice cave.

"Marina, those two Kyushu girls, don't see you again."

"Why?" Marina asked incredulously, "Master Bishop, do you believe those ridiculous rumors?"

"Of course I don't believe it, and no one really believes it. But, after all, the impact is not good."

Marina said anxiously: "Master Bishop, Liulixian and Bai Shixuan are the best candidates I have ever seen to be friendly with the Holy Light. Their aptitude far surpasses mine, and even the Supreme Saintess of the Holy City may not be able to match it." If they can be absorbed, it will be the biggest gain of the church in recent years, and when we met last time, they have expressed their desire to join the church."

Luo Wan sighed and said, "I know that there must be something special about someone who can make you value him so much and meet him many times. But some rumors have spread too widely."

"That's just a rumor," Marina argued angrily, "Why should you care about rumors?"

"Because rumors are powerful. Many times, a person's success or failure often depends on the influence of one or two rumors." Luo Wan said solemnly, "You were promoted from the monastery with my own hands, and I place my best wishes on you." high hopes"

Seeing the archbishop's solemnity, Marina felt powerless. After a while, she calmed down a little: "Then, it's enough to just extinguish the rumors from the source? Guess, who will spread these rumors? Yuli Ya? Judith? Karida? Not too many people know about my relationship with Bedivere... "

"Enough." Archbishop Rowan suddenly roared, "How can you be full of malicious doubts about your brothers and sisters?"

Marina: "But they..."

"That's right, they believe in rumors and spread rumors to fuel the flames. They gloat and celebrate their misfortune, which shows that they are immature and need constant training. But you are a saint of the church, so you can't have the same standard as them." Luo Wan severely criticized , "Also, they didn't spread the rumors."

"Who would that be?"

"No matter who it is, you don't need to care. Marina, your heart is already messed up, this is not what a saint should look like"

Marina was silent for a while: "Sorry, my heart is indeed shaken."

"Go back and calm down, may the Holy Light be with you."

"... yes, my lord bishop."

During these half a month, there was unprecedented torture. Marina suddenly seemed to have returned to a few years ago, when she and Bedivere broke completely. It is also the torment and pain.

In fact, I didn't have much contact with Liulixian and Bai Shixuan. I only met five times in total, and it took me only two days to make up my mind. It is impossible to really accumulate too deep feelings. My anger may come more from grievance and unwillingness.

Am I doing something wrong? Why... Do you have to doubt me and attack me so viciously? Why do people who have nothing to do with me and who have no grievances or enmities all make noise together? Why wouldn't even the archbishop support me? Among them, what went wrong? Am I wrong, or is something else wrong

"Mom, are you unhappy?"

The daughter came to Marina with a worried face, so that the woman could finally stretch her brows.

"It's nothing." Marina patted her daughter's head pitifully, "I'm not unhappy."

"Oh, sister Liuli and the others are coming over in two days."

In two more days…? Marina raised her head in a daze, her heart throbbing again. In two days, we will say goodbye to them.

If there is no accident, those two smart and well-behaved little girls will become unforgettable memories in my long years.

At the same time, the behind-the-scenes man who was far away in the Longcheng military barracks was studying carefully with a freshly released newspaper, and his expression gradually became excited.

"Everything is ready, the east wind has arrived"

In newspapers, the news about heretical monks from Kyushu attacking the eastern church of the Holy Light Sect was printed on the front page.
