Fangzheng himself had no religious beliefs.
Of course, if he had to say something, he naturally liked order and opposed chaos. But when it came to specific gods, at least Buddha and God, Fangzheng was not interested at all. Even if it was the Goddess of Order, Fangzheng only respected her. But when it came to faith?
It was really difficult to believe in a higher alien creature who liked to watch BL movies.
Strictly speaking, the only one who could make Fangzheng, a person who had accepted modern scientific knowledge, kneel down three times and kowtow nine times was probably Nuwa.
After all, Nuwa made humans out of clay. Strictly speaking, she was the ancestor and mother of all the people on this land. It was normal to kneel down and worship her.
And the reason why Fangzheng considered this was because he had no other choice. Because he had just accepted the task of cleaning up the roots. The goal of this task was very simple, which was to restore the belief in Nuwa on this land. But how could it be so simple?
On the way here, Fangzheng had also investigated the situation of the belief in this plane. As he said before, most of the Shenzhou in this plane was basically occupied by temples, and the remaining Taoist temples also believed in the Three Pure Ones and the Three Emperors.
And Nuwa, the ancestor of human beings, the creator of all life, was actually forced to live in Miaojiang and was almost destroyed. Can you believe it?!
If Fangzheng wanted to put the belief of Nuwa back on the right track, then he had to launch a religious war and destroy all the gods who had participated in the destruction of Nuwa's belief, including but not limited to Buddha, Guanyin, Yuanshi, Taishang Laojun, and Heaven Emperor Fuxi.
In short, all those who were on the list should be burned to death!
Not a single one should be left alive!
The Western gods and Buddhas who invaded Shenzhou and stole his fate should die. The Three Pure Ones who colluded with the Western evil sects and suppressed and destroyed the ancestor's belief should also be destroyed!
Of course, after saying so much, the most important thing was the standpoint. Fangzheng's standpoint was naturally on Nuwa's side.
Not to mention that Nuwa was the ancestor of all living beings in Shenzhou, more importantly, Nuwa did not impose her own ideas on others. She represented the self-struggle and self-sublimation spirit of all living beings. Unlike the Three Pure Ones of Daoism, who aimed to transcend the mortal world and stay away from it to escape suffering. He only cared about his own life and death and did not care about the suffering of the people.
They wouldn't be like the Western Buddhists, suppressing the wisdom of the people and swindling people under the banner of converting to Buddhism or going to hell.
Therefore, Nuwa's belief was in line with Fangzheng's desire to elevate the level of civilization in the entire Xianxia world.
This also meant that it was impossible for him to compromise with the Three Pure Ones or the Western Tathagata.
Because this was a fundamental class contradiction!
In order to improve the level of civilization in the Human World, it was necessary to carry out reforms, and the reforms would naturally touch the interests of these vested interests. In order to protect their interests, these vested interests would certainly not stand idly by. They might suppress and compromise, but they would never yield.
However, if Fangzheng wanted to do this, he would need a base plan, and he would need to reach an agreement with this base plan.
Therefore, he found the Witch Empress and Zhao Linger — after all, they were the descendants of Nuwa.
It was just like how Liu Bei liked to shout, "I'm the descendant of Prince Jing of Zhongshan, Liu Sheng," whenever he met someone. Although he did not know if Liu Sheng was drunk or had a mistress' son, or if he was just a relative from 2,500 years ago, it was still a title, wasn't it?
Liu Bei's was still unverified, but his was a sure thing! The bloodline book could be verified all the way to the beginning of the world!
Wouldn't it be a pity not to use it?
"Benefactor, do you mean to help us restore Nuwa's belief?"
Hearing Fangzheng's intention, the Witch Empress was obviously a little surprised, but Fangzheng nodded.
"That's right. As the saying goes, heaven and earth love the ruler and teacher. Nuwa is the ancestor of all living beings in China, but now she is being slandered as a demon by those foreign invaders. Are you going to just accept it? Haven't you thought about righting the name of your ancestor? Now Nuwa's lineage has been forced to a corner of Miaojiang. I don't know what will happen in another hundred years. And you know very well that the Nuwa Clan has only one child in each generation, and all of them are girls. If there is an accident, won't the Nuwa Clan be completely destroyed? "
Speaking of this, Fangzheng spread out his hands.
"Take the Water Demonic Beast as an example. If I'm not here, Witch Empress, you must have been executed as a demon ten years ago. What about ten years later? Even if Ling 'er is still alive, will she stand by in the face of Baiyue Sect Master and the Water Demonic Beast? If Ling 'er didn't give birth to a child at that time, then after she died with the Water Demonic Beast, wouldn't the Nuwa lineage be completely destroyed? Once it becomes like this, then after a few decades, how many people in the White Miao Tribe who have lost the pillar of faith will know who Nuwa is? "
"This …"
Hearing this, the Witch Empress and Zhao Ling 'er also showed a bit of solemnity. After all, ancient times still attached great importance to the inheritance of descendants, and the Nuwa lineage was originally very special. Once there was an accident, a distant relative like Liu Bei could not be found.
Would it be the end of the lineage?
"But Master, now Miaojiang can no longer withstand the war!"
Zhao Ling 'er said timidly beside the Witch Empress, and Fangzheng also shook his head.
"Don't worry. Although the religious war is also a war, I don't intend to involve ordinary people from the beginning. To me, the Miaojiang that is waiting to be rebuilt is a very good place. Well, Ling 'er, let me ask you something. "
"Master, please speak."
"How do you feel about life on the airship?"
"This …"
Although she did not know why Fangzheng suddenly changed to this aspect, Zhao Ling 'er still nodded obediently.
"Very comfortable."
"What if we let the entire Miaojiang, or even the entire Divine Land, live such a life?"
"Huh?!"
Hearing this, both the Witch Empress and Zhao Ling 'er were taken aback.
"This … Is it really possible?"
"Of course, this is the plan I made."
Fangzheng naturally understood why the Witch Empress and Zhao Ling 'er were so surprised. Of course, they were kind-hearted people, but their knowledge and foresight were limited to this world after all. In their opinion, it was a matter of course for the superior to have a comfortable life, and there was no problem with what Fangzheng had. Because Fangzheng was an omnipotent immortal, his life was bound to be better than that of the mortals in this world.
But few people would think "Can I also live such a life?" Because they knew that they would not become an "immortal," so they were satisfied with the status quo.
What Fangzheng wanted to do was to change the status quo.
Fangzheng was very clear that once productivity improved and people's living standards improved, then material and spiritual civilization would also change accordingly. Once the backward religious ideology of Buddhism could not keep up with the spiritual and cultural needs of the people, it would be abandoned mercilessly. Therefore, what Fangzheng had to do was not to raise a cross and rush to Jerusalem like those idiots in the Crusades. Instead, he had to first prepare for the upgrade of the level of civilization, and then use the cultural characteristics of his own advanced productivity to destroy the existence of Buddhism in Divine Land.
As for Fangzheng himself, he only needed to act as insurance. When those shameless Western gods and Buddhas planned to descend to the mortal world to brainwash the mortals, he just needed to appear and kill them.
But now …
"I will make a plan as to what to do specifically."
Fangzheng stood up.
"But now, I still have something to do."
Just now, Fangzheng felt that the gem he gave to Little Qing had been crushed.
In other words, the first shot at Buddhism was about to begin.
