She Is Not a Witch Chapter 122: Voice of protest
Several young men and women walked among the white stone carved buildings, strolling slowly, some were talking with each other, and some pointed to the statues and asked which saint it was.
"Huh, this is the white flower saint Durran." Hesen wiped the sweat from the heat, and pointed to the white statue standing in the fountain in front of him.
The saint is wearing a close-fitting and graceful dress, holding a special long sword in her hand.
The hilt, body and guard of the long sword form a straight cross shape, and then there is an upright circle on the guard, which surrounds the hilt and the body of the sword. This circle has complicated patterns, such as vine branches and leaves. generally.
Duerlan held this special holy sword and inserted it into the ground, and then water spouted from the junction of the sword and the ground, forming a small fountain.
"It is said that this saint led the local people to build a city in just one month during the chaos and disaster, and then inserted the sword into the ground to attract clear springs and solve the water problem, thus saving hundreds of thousands of people. People. Later, she was canonized because of this. After the war, she left behind an extraordinary faction, the Bailan Cross Sword, which should still be found in Wilga.” Haisen explained the statue.
"A rare female canonization." Boli looked at the small stone stele below curiously, which recorded the time of her birth and death.
"Then is the Bailan Cross Sword still being passed down? I'm going to see it when I have time."
"Well..." Hesen thought about it.
"Which city is it in..." He couldn't remember for a moment.
"It used to be in Hopelander, Bailan Cross Sword." Rosier walked slowly next to him, stood with Boli, and looked at the stone stele below.
"Is this what it used to be? What about now." Another girl came over, she asked curiously.
"It should be on your side. It is said that in the Hopeland Incident a few years ago, most of the members of Bailan Cross went to Frost Rose." Lorrain Hill continued.
"Well, I don't know much at ordinary times. When I was young, I liked to play around." Jelika touched her chin.
The group then looked at other statues one after another, and then walked in the direction of the Château de Château.
Among the tall trees, there is a misty singing in a small church.
There are few pedestrians in the surroundings that are very quiet, only the occasional cicadas from the treetops remind the time of the moment.
The 7 people from Lorrain Hill did not enter the church to visit, because it would disturb others and it would be abrupt. They sat on the benches and rocks outside, listening to the chants inside.
The nuns in the choir are not too old, and the innocent voice sings a cappella without accompaniment, giving a sense of purity and sacredness.
"Be calm, do what you want, be generous, and be compassionate."
"Living in the capital city, holy and solemn, empty valley and orchids."
"My saint is immortal, if there is nothing to do, graceful and inviolable!"
The bytes in it are all short sentences with the same length. When singing, the scale rises with the adjustment of the song, and there is a vast and solemn sacredness.
In this way, a few people sat quietly in the shade of the trees, blowing the summer wind, listening to this remote and sacred poem.
"Although I don't quite understand the meaning of the lyrics, I always feel calm when I listen."
After they finished listening, they continued to walk on the mountain road, talking to each other.
"Perhaps this is the effect of the chant. Sometimes the lyrics are not important, the important thing is the sacred feeling of calm down."
Several people came to the other side of the mountain as they talked.
At this time, a magnificent scenery was displayed in front of them.
The setting sun reflected the sky, slowly falling into the horizon, the purple clouds of the sunset were soaking in the horizon, and the pale golden sunlight fell on the vast **** under the mountain peak.
Because of the cold climate here, there are few trees, most of the ground is gravel, soil, green weeds and the like. And this huge **** of several thousand square meters was reflected by the setting sun at this moment, and the golden and sparse brilliance filled every corner of the line of sight.
The world is clear and beautiful. The grass trembles slightly in the evening wind and light, and there is a good dry smell in the air.
"There is such a beautiful place around the sacred mountain, why didn't I know before." Several people sighed and counted.
"I'm afraid you have been to this place before, but you quickly ignored it." Crow said with a smile.
"In fact, it is usually very sparse and normal here. If it is cloudy, the huge **** below will be gray and white and not beautiful."
"It will only present beautiful scenery at certain times."
"Is that so."
Hai Sen and others sighed with emotion, sat here again to enjoy the beautiful scenery, and they left until they knew that the sun was sinking into the earth gradually.
"Holy Flame Palace is not far from here, let's go over there for dinner."
Everyone wants to walk to the southern peaks according to the pre-planned route.
As a group of people slowly approached, the noise of a tumult gradually became louder. A group of priests in plain white robes were gathering together and walking between the roads. As they shouted, a large group of people were interested Following behind, the number of people increased and the momentum gradually increased, and they walked towards Lorrain Hill and others on the road.
"Sibis manipulated promotion and deployment and persecuted poor pastors, which is a heinous crime!"
"Shameless villain, unworthy to be an archbishop and a priest with a scepter."
"Removal! Let the Adjudication Division interrogate him!"
Faced with this mighty crowd, the seven had to avoid the monks and nuns on the side of the road for the time being, stood on the side of the road, and watched them pass by.
"This is, are you protesting?" Boli asked in a low voice.
"It should be, but this is a very important point..." Crow didn't say half of his words, but everyone probably knew what he meant.
"Forget it, regardless of our business, we are still students of Emenas. It is best not to participate in this kind of thing." Hesen said to the side, slowly waiting for these people to pass by, taking Several people continued to move forward and sat down in a restaurant under the Holy Flame Palace.
The space in the restaurant is not large. They are on the second floor, sitting in a side position.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, and burning wall lamps were replaced on the walls of the room. The flames burned quietly in the windshield tube, emitting a bright yellow color.
While waiting for the meal, several people heard curious conversations from other guests around.
"Where did the pastors come from just now, they were so bold, they directly insulted the priest priest of the Ten Sword Palace."
"I don’t know exactly what happened, but I heard people say that most of these pastors are from small places. Because of the arrangements of the church, they have been pastors in remote and poor places for more than ten years and have not been promoted or deployed. , So there is a backlog of grievances."
"Then why do you scold Sibis for this kind of thing, he doesn't seem to care about it."
"He doesn't care, but his students and friends take care of it. It is said that many bishops in wealthy areas belong to the Sibes faction. They take care of each other and are very powerful. This is the cause of the anger."
"Sorry, everyone has been waiting for so long."
While Lorrain Hill and others were idly looking at the night view outside the window, a waiter in the restaurant finally served tonight's dinner.
There are still bubbles in the red ochre stone pot, and the soup in it is still boiling, exuding a seductive fragrance. Inside are small pieces of yellow, green, and red. Among them are meat, vegetables, rhizomes, etc. The color matching is very good.
"This is the more distinctive method of the Holy Flame Palace." A student said so, and then picked up a wooden spoon, scooped out parts from it, and distributed it to each companion.
"It is said that it was invented by priests in some remote areas in the early years. Because the chaos disaster had just passed, and many places were short of food, they would cut the prey they caught, the plant roots and fruits they dug into pieces and put them in. Let’s cook together. But I don’t want to find a few good taste combinations after I get too many times, and then they will continue to be passed down."
"This kind of stone pot was also used because there was no sufficient iron at the time, and only local materials were available. This restaurant also retained the original style." Haisen explained like a master of taste, the body is tall and strong. Of students seem to know better about eating.
"Sounds very historical." Jelika picked up the spoon and couldn't wait to taste it.
"It's better to be cold for a while, this one is very hot." Crow, a person who usually looks cold, would care about people at this moment.
"Hey, okay." Jelika put down her spoon for a while, then looked at the night view outside the window.
In the mountains at night, a long dragon of torches spreads upwards along the mountain road. Even if you sit in the restaurant here, you can hear the shouting echo from the opposite side of the mountain.
"Unexpectedly, slogans began to be shouted here." Jelika sighed.
"Is it common with Frost Rose?" the silver-haired girl sitting next to her asked curiously.
"Yes, in the past few years, a lot of new things and some new systems have been introduced to Ruerna. At first, the local people didn’t understand it. The big local family was also very repulsive. Later They just pulled up banners on the streets, organized people to shout slogans and so on."
"The general idea is the justice and democracy of rights. It cannot be held in the hands of the stubborn conservatives in the local area. After a long time, everyone will slowly be agitated. Then the senior leaders of the Frost Alliance will implement new policies and there will be less resistance. Many, this will gradually confiscated the rights of the local big family."
"Originally, the local big family was the big chamber of commerce, and the surrounding residents would also work in the chamber. They were all folks, and they were extremely united. Now that the rights were taken back, the Frost Union began to dismember these big chambers of commerce and gradually merged into them. In the official organization."
"Such a large organization performs its duties, and the competition is much less." When Jelika said this, her expression was not as relaxed as before.
"Isn't this a good thing, in this way, a lot of internal friction can be avoided." Crow said casually with a glass of sake.
"But... there is still some worry, so many ordinary people have no other choice when facing such a powerful behemoth. And this way..."
"In this way, a monopoly is formed." Lorrain Hill added with a sigh.
Although Frost Rose also has so-called democracy on the surface, this ‘democracy’ only serves the powerful, that is, the powerful.
The whole country is like a huge company. The purpose is to earn benefits for the top (magic, wealthy, etc.), and then use this to expand its strength, actively spread around it, annex the Seven Kingdoms of Xuehua, and finally fight against Green.
It seems to be the right choice, but it is all based on a huge sacrifice at the bottom. Because it is similar to a company, when you can no longer provide it with value (labor, battle, wealth), you will be abandoned by it. They don’t know how to get old or get some so-called guaranteed benefits.
Because the structure of power is that the higher the extraordinary strength, the greater the wealth of people, the higher the voting rights, while the poor and low-level people without extraordinary strength have very low voting rights, so naturally they don’t need to consider their interests in parliamentary proposals. You don't even need to think about its rebellion, because it doesn't have that strength.
The people at the bottom are like firewood. After the most elite years have been burned, they will be abandoned like rubbish.
However, under the slogan of the Frost Rose Alliance, such behavior is not wrong, but correct and great. People believe that they are not good enough to cause misfortune.
The green empire divides social status by blood line and extraordinary strength, whether it is noble or not.
The Frost Rose divides social status and power based on wealth and extraordinary strength.
The latter is an imitation of the former, so it is very similar.
If such behavior is placed in a distant earth civilization, it may have long been replaced by a new social form, and the emergence of extraordinary sequences has caused the actual gap between people to become extremely large, and this concept also More stable.
And the more extraordinary countries there are, the more obvious this situation is. Although the clear view in the church is that everyone is equal, in fact it is hard to escape the influence of objective laws and ideological trends.
Since the establishment of Hanshuang Rose and Crancia, the social structure and rights topics that have not been paid attention to have been discussed fiercely over the years. People in other places may be blocked by news, low level of education, and talk less, but in churches that are literate per capita and proficient in history and classics, the concepts of all parties become lively and intense.
Everyone often discussed with each other, and later they faintly divided into several factions.
As more and more information about Rose of Frost Frost was introduced into the sanctuary, many pastors also slowly agreed. They claim to be the representatives of angels in the world, and they have extraordinary powers, that is, they are higher than those of ordinary people. First class.
The main group of people who agree with the doctrine of hierarchical society ~IndoMTL.com~ is concentrated in the faction of Archbishop Sibes.
As for the chief of Otis of the Knights of the Holy Spear, he more agrees with the view that meritorious people are above all. No matter who they are, as long as they have merits, they are superior to those who have no merit. This is what they are. One point of view.
Beiness has never expressed her position. Although Lorrain Hill feels that she may prefer everyone to be equal, in fact, or because there is no strong argument, she has been silent all the time.
Mountain rain is coming and the wind is all over the building.
Lorland Hill sighed in his heart, watching the scene of confrontation and noise between the two sides on the opposite mountain, and then a group of knights on horses came from the other side of the mountain road, holding torches and long swords, trained Su, it is the long-famous holy spear knights on the mainland.
"Quiet! Quiet!"
This group of knights drove both sides with torches, separating the two groups of people. Then a knight riding a tall horse and wearing dark gold and silver engraved armor came slowly, and the scene gradually became quiet.
