Li Ruo rarely came over, and even when he came, he didn't talk to Gu Yu much.
Imprisoned in the small attic, Gu Yu could still hear the laughter and chattering downstairs.
What she wanted to do was to read the various gospels of the Goddess Sect and the annotations of some priests on the books in this melancholy sound.
During the Yu Dynasty, Buddhism and Taoism each accounted for half of the country, and incense has been passed down for hundreds of years. The Goddess Sect wanted to steal believers from these two religions, and it was difficult to open up the situation.
So Jingshuang very cleverly integrated the contents of the two religions into the Goddess religion.
The reincarnation of Buddhism and the inaction of Taoism are integrated into one.
Some views are quite advanced. For example, the Goddess Cult believes that in the beginning of the world, there was chaos and all living beings were equal.
Gu Yu's hand repeatedly rubbed the word "chaos" in the book, and asked Li Ruo: "What does chaos mean?"
Li Ruo wore a veil and replied expressionlessly: "Shizi Gu has read as many books as Li Ruo, how could he not know the meaning of chaos?"
Gu Yudao: "The chaos I know should not mean the same thing as the chaos in your religion."
Li Ruo suddenly became vigilant and said: "Chaos is chaos."
Gu Yu stared into her eyes and said: "Let me guess, you want to pursue equality, so the world can only return to chaos."
Li Ruo stood up and was about to walk out of the door. Gu Yu held her sleeve to prevent her from leaving and said, "I know what chaos is."
Li Ruodao: "You know, so what?"
Gu Yudao: "Li Ruo, do you also want the world to return to chaos?"
Li Ruo's body gradually stiffened.
Gu Yu moved the candle on the table to the edge of the table little by little. When it was about to fall to the ground, Li Ruoshou quickly caught it.
The candle flame burned her finger, so Gu Yu poured a bowl of herbal tea on her hand to cool her down, and the candle was extinguished.
It was dark beside the desk, and Li Ruo and Gu Yu couldn't see each other's faces clearly.
The wind blew through the window and the books on the table rustled.
Gu Yu took the opportunity to say: "So you also know the pain."
This is very strange. Li Ruodao said: "I am a human being, of course I know pain."
Gu Yudao: "You know it hurts, but do you know how painful it is for those who died due to the war?"
Li Ruo stopped talking.
Gu Yu continued: "They have broken arms and legs, scars all over their bodies, and they are wailing in pain. They are still praying to God to let them live. Do you know how much pain they have? Do you know how much they want to live?"
Li Ruo breathed heavily and said, "I don't understand what you are talking about. I will ask the leader to come over."
Gu Yudao: "Go ahead and ask the leader to let that madman lead the whole Jiangnan to die together."
Even in the dark night, Gu Yu could clearly see Li Ruo's big bright eyes staring at her.
Gu Yudao: "Do you think you are doing the right thing? Do you think you can return to the ideal world by destroying the world and returning to chaos?"
Li Ruodao: "The leader said that only destruction can lead to reconstruction. When the time comes, the goddess will lead us to rebuild the world."
Gu Yu cursed: "What a fucking bullshit."
Li Ruo was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect the noble Gu Shizi to say such rude words.
Gu Yudao: "Others don't know what the goddess is, don't you? Isn't the goddess yourself?"
Li Ruo turned his head away from Gu Yu and said, "The goddess will turn into you soon, and you will do better than me."
Gu Yudao: "How do you know I can do better than you?"
Li Ruodao: "In Tongning County, you risked the disapproval of the world to let women join the army and help them establish military households."
Gu Yudao: "Is this the reason why you couldn't bear to give in and teach me the teachings carefully even though I wanted to steal your position as goddess?"
Li Ruodao: "Yeah."
Silly girl, Gu Yu scolded her in her heart.
Gu Yudao: "Then let me guess again, how did that madman brainwash you? Did he say that only in times of danger will the world understand that men and women are the same. Just like when I was guarding the city
, break the rules and let women also go to the battlefield."
Li Ruo didn't know what brainwashing was, but that's what the leader said, so he said, "He's not lying to me. In peacetime, women were never respected."
Gu Yu cursed: "Why are you so stupid? You didn't even know you were deceived into this by him."
Li Ruo became angry and said: "He didn't lie to me! You are in Tongning County, shouldn't you know better than me the changes in Jiangnan before and after the war?"
Gu Yudao: "Just wait!"
Li Ruodao: "What are you waiting for?"
Gu Yu said in a calm tone: "Just wait!"
Later, Jing Shuang walked in and asked, "Where is Li Ruo?"
Gu Yudao: "I was so angry that she ran away. She has been slandering me these days."
Jing Shuang said: "If you want to take away her position as a goddess, of course she will lose face to you."
Then he saw Gu Yu's book spread out on the table, sketching and drawing, which showed that he was reading it very seriously. Jing Shuang asked, "How did you learn?"
Gu Yudao: "I understand."
Jing Shuang took out the book from Gu Yu's hand and said, "Are you satisfied with this teaching?"
Gu Yu looked at him and said, "It's boring."
Jing Shuang was a little surprised and asked: "It's not interesting?"
Gu Yudao: "Your teaching is nothing more than this."
Jing Shuang said: "The Goddess Religion has redeemed thousands of women in the world and given them faith. What makes you dissatisfied?"
Gu Yudao: "It's not redemption, it's fooling. You seem to have given them hope, but in fact you just deprived them of their ability to think and fight independently.
When those believers encounter a spring of water when they are about to die of thirst, they will think it is a gift from the goddess, completely ignoring that they walked a long way to drink this water.
They survived when they were seriously ill, thinking it was a gift from the goddess, but in fact it was the doctor who prescribed the disease for them.
There is also Tongning County. They are grateful that Tongning County was not occupied by the rebels. They thought that the goddess was protecting them, but in fact it was thousands of soldiers and people who fought desperately on the city wall to defend the city and defended the city with countless sacrifices.
In the name of the goddess, you cover up their own efforts and those of others. Over time, they only know how to pray to the goddess for blessing and salvation, but they don't know how to work hard themselves.
The next time they are thirsty, the next time they are seriously ill, the next time soldiers approach the city, they only know how to pray, but then the blessings of the goddess will not come.
They have not gotten rid of the pain in this world at all, they just use the ridiculous idea of blessing from the goddess to numb themselves."
Jing Shuang looked at Gu Yu with a playful expression.
Gu Yu continued: "I misjudged you. You don't hate men, you hate women. From the bottom of your heart, you look down on women and think they are easy to fool.
You don’t preach to men, not because men have dirty thoughts and dirty behaviors, but because you think men have all the advantages in the world and they don’t need a false belief to paralyze themselves.
The reason why you don’t preach to rich and powerful women is because they live a comfortable life, are well-educated and sensible, and have what they want, so they won’t believe such ridiculous lies.
Only the women at the bottom, who live in poverty, need hope to lead them. You happened to show up, in the name of salvation. But what you gave was not hope at all, but a fool."
