Chapter 196： First church (1/2)

There is a mysterious new guest on the territory, but for most people, it’s just a little talk after spending a meal. The influence on the civilians is actually not as new as a new house in a certain area, especially nowadays many people are Looking at a new building on the east side of Knight Street.

The first church that Cecil led was finally built.

Pastor Wright spent more than two months in the world and finally passed the assessment of the lord, got permission to upload teaching in Cecil land, and got a piece of land and the materials and personnel needed to build the church. Mr. Pastor is obviously very happy about this. Even if there is great enthusiasm and work efficiency, let the chapel rise at an alarming rate. Of course, this is also a brick that he moved on the territory for two months. So skillful and skilled.

The newly-built chapel is very simple to see from the outside. Although it also has various facilities such as the spires, small towers, prayer halls and other facilities necessary for the Church of the Light, everything is practical and sufficient, and the Central Church is completely invisible. The luxury style of gold and silver on the wall, but it is still a beautiful new house, the church itself is matched with the small square in front, and the neat brick houses in the background, on the territory. The first block that can be described as "modern towns" is finally beginning to take shape.

Before the church officially opened the gate, the lord also arranged a small "opening ceremony" for it.

This is a kind of big man in the form of the land that is quite unusual to the people. It is very rare to organize activities for the opening of a building.

Elsewhere, the emergence of a new facility does not have any specific, solemn rituals. Usually there are only a few folk rules that are customary: the craftsman’s shop will break a pottery filled with ale before the opening. The cans, on the one hand, celebrate, on the other hand, they use the aroma of ale to inform the public, so that people know that there is a new shop opening; after the completion of the new church in each church, the priests inside organize their own religious activities. The pastor preached at the door and distributed the oatcakes. When the horses and theaters opened by the princes and nobles were completed, there would be some celebrations, but they were all the dances and receptions of the upper-class characters, and they had nothing to do with the civilians. .

The ritual called "cutting the ribbon" arranged by Gao Wen is novel and inexplicable to people.

But the civilians of this era will not think deeply about the things that they have nothing to do with their own lives. Anyway, the arrangement of the lords is right, and for them, there are new things happening on the territory that are worthy of happiness, especially A church that can bring convenience to life.

A large crowd gathered in the small square in front of the church. They curiously looked at the still closed church door and the lords standing in front of the gate: Govin and Heidi, Rebecca stood there, Next to them is the presence of the pastor, Mr. Wright, and in addition to the soldiers responsible for maintaining the order of the scene.

In order to adapt to the world's popular aesthetics and habits, and to produce more important "symbolic meanings", Gao Wen redesigned a so-called "cutting ribbon" process, and he ordered a symbolic colored knot on the church door. And a rope that is blocked on the steps leading to the gate, so that the building is still blocked, and when the sun rises to the highest point, he appears here and opens as the lord. church.

In countless curious and awe-inspiring sights, Herti took a step forward, under the blessing of magic, soft but enough to sing the voice of the audience into everyone's ears: "Today, is a day worth celebrating. The evangelist of Light God, Mr. Wright, brought the morality of the Light to everyone. Our lord, the Duke of Govin Cecil, believed that the Light of the Light was good for the territory, and therefore approved the construction of the church and personally Congratulations on the practice of the Holy Light and the righteousness of the lord:

"After the application of the Light Missionary Wright, Cecil lord Gavin Cecil ruled that it is legal and beneficial to spread the Light of Light on this land, and hereby permits the missionary Wright's missionary action and permits the establishment of the church. One."

Then, in the hands of the people, they first smashed and then joined the hilarious applause to cut the ropes, and Heti and Rebecca untied the colored knots on the church door.

Pastor Wright looked at the whole process of the ceremony with curiosity. He seemed to think that there was any deep meaning in the ceremony. However, he was not a "real cleric" who was good at calculating, as a kick that was almost kicked out by the Central Church. The missionary, he has been spreading the doctrine according to his own understanding and methods, so he soon no longer thinks that it is a good thing to be able to teach as soon as possible, and the lord also personally came to congratulate, which is even more good. As for the "God of Light" needs the approval of Govin Cecil to build a church on a piece of land... It doesn't matter, the church was built anyway.

To be honest, Wright even felt that Cecil led his appetite: in other nobles, his missionary also needed to find a local license, although basically every lord would agree, but never The place is as formal and serious as Cecil. The lords of other nobles are not so much allowing the church to develop on their own territory, but rather adopting an indifferent attitude completely disregarded. The so-called "licensed permission" is only a form of passing, a church and aristocratic forces. Mutual compromise and respect on the face, but in Cecil's collar, this "license" seems more formal.

Wright likes this kind of well-defined place, because he has seen too many people's sufferings caused by chaos. Many people will complain that the lord has made too many rules to lead to difficult life, but few people realize that it leads to What is difficult in life is not the rules, but the rules that are set up indiscriminately, formulated at all times, and are not intended to be followed by the lord himself.
