Immediately, there was silence in the tavern.
Everyone looked at the door, looking at the two completely different sects. Because there were too many religions, there were dozens if not hundreds of religions in a city. Friction between religions was inevitable and even very serious. These religions were essentially no different from bandits. Coupled with the fact that they had the advantage in numbers, it was common for them to engage in group fights.
Sure enough, the atmosphere between the two sides immediately became tense. The Omnipotent Sect's followers immediately pointed at each other and shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about? Say it again if you have the guts. "
"So what if I say it again?" The Sun God Religion's followers said contemptuously, "What Omnipotent God? He can only deceive a three-year-old child. People like you who are trustworthy are worse than a child! "
"Nonsense! Your Sun God Religion is trash! What does the rising of the sun have to do with you? If you die, can you show me your eternal life? "
Both sides insulted each other's religion. This was even more infuriating to them than killing their fathers! Immediately, both sides rushed out and were about to fight in the tavern. The poor tavern's shopkeeper hid on the side, wanting to intervene but not daring to. Thinking that his tavern would be smashed in a while, he looked like he wanted to cry.
Both sides strode toward each other, rolling up their sleeves. Just as both sides picked up their chairs and were about to fight, a voice suddenly came from the corner.
"I have a way."
The followers of both sides immediately paused and turned their heads to look. They immediately saw a man and a woman wearing a veil hat in the corner.
"What did you say?" One of the Omnipotent Sect's followers shouted, "I didn't hear you clearly!"
"I said, I have a way to solve the dispute between you." Lu An turned and looked at both sides at the door and said, "And it's once and for all. Let you decide the winner and loser. The loser has no excuse."
Both sides' followers' eyes suddenly lit up. They were very confident in their religion. The Sun God Religion's followers immediately shouted, "What's the way? I want them to lose convincingly! "
"It's very simple." Lu An under the veil hat smiled and said, "Let your gods duel. If the Sun God kills the Omnipotent God, then naturally the Sun God Religion is more powerful."
As soon as these words came out, the followers of both sides were stunned! Immediately after, the people from both sides immediately showed anger. Although they were religious, they were not fools.
"Brat, you dare to trick us?!" The Omnipotent Sect's disciple immediately shouted fiercely.
"How could that be?" Lu An said in surprise. "Isn't this the best way? It's just like if the sects want to determine who's better, all they need to do is to have the Sect Leaders of both sides fight! "
"But we believe in God! It's not a sect! "The Sun God Sect's disciple shouted angrily.
"So?" Lu An was puzzled and asked, "If there is no God, then what do you believe in? If there is a God, would your God just sit by and watch his followers fight to the death and do nothing? It's obvious that a duel would solve the problem, but he doesn't dare to declare war on the other gods. Could it be that he's afraid? "
"…"
The customers in the tavern all nodded, thinking that this was a good idea. There were so many religions. There were at least thousands of religions in a country, and tens of thousands of gods. Everyone said that their God was so powerful. It was better to let these gods fight each other until only the strongest God was left. Everyone would worship the same God. How good would that be?
Looking at the customers in the tavern who agreed, the two religions' followers turned pale. They always felt that this brat was playing with them. Immediately, both sides rushed toward the man and the woman angrily.
However … as soon as they took a step forward, everyone's chest seemed to have been hit hard. Immediately, they groaned and retreated a few steps, their faces pale.
These people quickly raised their heads and looked at the man and the woman in shock. No matter how stupid they were, they knew that they had met an iron plate, so they quickly fled from the tavern. But when they fled, they didn't forget to declare war on the other side's followers, shouting, "Just you wait! I'm going to communicate with God and ask him to kill your fake God! "
"You're the one who's waiting! Just wait to collect your stupid God's corpse! "
"…"
Hearing the two religions' followers' curses getting farther and farther away, the tavern gradually became lively. But what made Lu An And Yao frown even more was that not only did the people in the tavern not have any doubts about religion, they even said that they wanted to pray to the God they believed in, hoping that he would hear their words and kill the other Gods.
They were beyond cure.
"If it's possible, I hope that this world doesn't have any religion." Yao said. She no longer touched the tea in front of her, and did not have the slightest desire to taste it.
Lu An nodded lightly. He agreed and said, "Instead of believing in a made-up God, why don't we believe in some people with noble character? People who make up Gods are very likely to be criminals or evil people. The process of creating Gods has ulterior motives. Naturally, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. If we believe in Saints, we can believe in many different Saints. This can avoid a single doctrine. While we believe in Saints, we also have to publicize the flaws of Saints. We have to tell the world that no one is perfect, including Saints. Only then can everyone become rational and become good. "
Hearing Lu An's words, Yao agreed after thinking about it. She said seriously, "It would be great if the world could really become like what you said."
Lu An smiled and said, "Take your time."
At this moment, the shopkeeper walked to the two of them. As Lu An had chased away the two groups of believers, the shopkeeper personally served them good tea. He happened to hear Lu An's words and could not help but brighten up. He was one of the few people who did not believe in any religion. He asked curiously, "This young master's words are extraordinary. How can you have such an opinion at such a young age?"
Lu An smiled and said, "Because when I was suffering, none of the Gods came to help me. It made me understand that I can only rely on myself."
The shopkeeper was stunned. Then, he laughed and said, "Rely on yourself? Little brother, I admire you. This pot of tea is for you!"
"Thank you." Lu An said with a smile.
"But there are really too many religions here." The shopkeeper said helplessly, "Not only are there no fewer Gods, but there are also countless Gods created every day. As long as there are Gods, there will be people who believe in them. It will only increase and not decrease. There is no end to it! "
Lu An nodded. If they did not solve the problem of religion, it would not be clean. For example, Sengoku had been eliminating evil for tens of thousands of years, but there was still an endless stream of them.
"I wonder if there are any particularly rampant cults around here?" Lu An asked. He was originally going to ask the waiter about this, so he asked the shopkeeper.
"Yes! There are all of them! " Speaking of this, the shopkeeper's face immediately became very angry. He said, "But if we were to talk about the most rampant cult, it should be the Eternal Life Cult!"
"Eternal life?" Lu An was slightly startled. Many religions used 'eternal life' to confuse their believers. This was not a rare thing.
"That's right!" The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and said, "The Eternal Life Cult is the largest cult in this country. All believers are like madmen, believing in the dogma without a doubt! The Eternal Life Cult killed all those who dared to oppose them. What's even more evil is that they preach the so-called method to obtain eternal life! "
"What method?" Yao asked.
"The Blessed Child!" The shopkeeper clenched his fists and said angrily, "They sacrifice children under the age of one!"
As soon as he said this, Lu An And Yao's head buzzed. His eyes under the veil hat widened!
Sacrifice children? And infants under the age of one?!
Yao's breath suddenly became very unstable, as if she was going to explode at any time! Even Lu An could not calm down when he heard this. He took a deep breath and reached out to hold Yao's delicate hand. He asked the shopkeeper, "Where is the Eternal Life Cult in this city?"
"The center of the city!" The shopkeeper was stunned. He did not know why he asked, but he still said, "It's in the west of the Castellan's Mansion!"
"Thank you," Lu An said to the shopkeeper. "I appreciate the pot of tea."
After saying this, Lu An And Yao stood up and strode out of the tavern. The shopkeeper looked at the teapot on the table, then at the two figures leaving. He was a little confused.
"These two … Don't tell me they're going to seek an explanation from the Eternal Life Cult?" The shopkeeper was uneasy. He muttered to himself, "The Eternal Life Cult has killed so many people. They're not as easy to deal with as other religions. It's not easy to meet two people who don't believe in the cult. They better not do anything stupid."
