Gou became a god or devil after splitting his body

Chapter 181 I am Lin Xinchen (1/2)

"I've met Priest Lin."

"Good morning, Priest Lin."

On Li Yan's way to the Moon Temple, the people he met along the way greeted Li Yan enthusiastically.

In response, Li Yan just smiled and nodded.

After all, he didn't know most of these people.

It was also because these people were not important in Lin Xinchen's heart, so he did not introduce them specially.

In this case, Li Yan does not intend to know more about them.

Among dozens of people, Li Yan recognized only one person based on his characteristics.

This person's name is Shang Shang. He is a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face and a golden uniform. He is one of the best businessmen in the new city. Even in the main city of the church, he has some connections.

The two have known each other for many years, and Lin Xincheng protected his property from being threatened by other forces in Xincheng.

The reward he has to pay is to become one of Lin Xinchen's tentacles extending to the outside world, helping Lin Xinchen purchase more precious cultivation materials from the outside world.

"I have already bought the second-grade elixir [Golden Stone Pill] you want. Look, when will you come to my house as a guest? I have recently found a few girls with good singing voices, just for you to taste."

When Li Yan passed by Shang Shang, Shang Shang whispered to Li Yan.

Many people know that Lin Xinchen likes girls with nice voices.

If something is good from above, it will be followed by everyone below.

Therefore, many people who want to get to know Lin Xinchen will use this as a breakthrough to approach and please Lin Xinchen.

Even people who have a relationship with Lin Xinchen will use this trick to stabilize their relationship.

Regarding Shang Shang's invitation, Li Yan thought for a while and replied in Lin Xinchen's tone: "I will go there tonight."

After finishing speaking, Li Yan patted the other party's shoulder.

Shang Shang, who was a head taller than Lin Xinchen, quickly bent down to receive it, still with a flattering look on his face.

When Lin Xinchen walked away, he straightened up and looked around, seeing the envious eyes of the people around him as usual.

Many people gathered around him, flattering him and carefully asking about Lin Xinchen's other preferences.

All this made Shang Shang very proud and satisfied.

After leaving Shangshang, Li Yan quickly arrived at the gate of the Moon Temple.

As the face and representative of the Moon God Sect, the Moon Temple is naturally built with great style.

The Moon Temple in the New Adventist City is said to be a temple, but it is actually a complex of buildings covering an area of ​​dozens of acres.

After all, the Moon God Sect has regulations that even the Moon Temple in a small religious city must meet the requirements of tens of thousands of people worshiping the Moon God together.

The gate of the Temple of the Moon is a silver-white circular gate, and there is a circular gate of the same type that is twice the size on both sides.

The large circular door is nearly two feet in diameter and can allow more than ten people to enter at one time.

The small one is only one foot in diameter and can accommodate up to four or five people at a time.

The big door is used to welcome Moon God believers, which means anyone can walk through.

The two smaller ones have other uses. For example, now they are used to give food to the poor.

There is a door for people to enter and a door for people to come out. Everything is in order.

When Li Yan appeared in a crescent priest robe, the Moon God believers who were lining up to receive the food greeted Li Yan enthusiastically.

His hands even made a gesture of gratitude to the Moon God.

Li Yan naturally wanted to return the gift. This was a matter of faith.

Even if the leader of the Moon God Sect comes here, he must return the gift, otherwise it will be disrespectful to the Moon God.

After returning the gift, one has to say, "God of the Moon, thank you for your kindness and giving us such delicious food."

This sentence means different things at different times.

Now that they are receiving relief food, they need to thank the moon god for giving them food.

If this is a festival, we should thank the moon god for dividing the heavens and giving the world four distinct seasons.

Anyway, as long as everything is done to praise the moon god, it is the most basic professional quality of the priest.

After dealing with these believers, Li Yan walked into the Moon Temple.

The first thing I saw were two rows of screens, covering the believers who were receiving relief food.

Then there is the main hall of the Moon Temple, the Moon Palace.

The Wangyue Palace is more than five feet high and covers an area of ​​three acres. At a glance, it can give people a great visual impact.

Entering the Wangyue Hall, a moon god more than three feet tall appeared in front of Li Yan.

The appearance of the Moon God is that of a woman, with a bright moon appearing behind her head, and her beady face carrying an expression of compassion for all living beings.

When Li Yan entered the Wangyue Hall, many people were already kneeling on the ground, praying to the Moon God.

What they were whispering softly was the "Moon God's Salvation Sutra" passed down by the Moon God Sect. The first part introduced the moon god's salvation deeds, and the second part was all about praising the moon god.

According to the Moon God Sect, when a person recites the "Moon God Salvation Sutra" ten thousand times, he can enter the Moon God Kingdom after death.

The Kingdom of Moon God described by the Moon God Cult is filled with all the beautiful things in human imagination. There, there is no pain, no hunger, no death, only happiness and joy.

Even if you don't want to stay in the Kingdom of the Moon God, you can go down to earth and reincarnate into a wealthy family.

It is precisely because of the influence of this statement that although the gap between rich and poor is very large in Otsuki Kingdom, it often happens that the rich oppress the poor.

However, for thousands of years, civilian rebellions have rarely occurred.

Because the common people firmly believe that they can enter the Kingdom of the Moon God after death, and then be reborn to enjoy a lifetime of wealth.

At the same time, under such a saying, there are very few people who commit suicide in Dayue.

Dayue religion does not promote that suicide cannot enter the Kingdom of the Moon God, but because if you commit suicide, you will not be able to complete the task of reciting the "Moon God Saves the World Scripture" 10,000 times.

This "Moon God Saves the World Scripture" is only useful when it is recited for the first time a day, and it must be started after adulthood.

In Dayue, eighteen years old is considered an adult.

In other words, it takes at least fifty years for a Dayue citizen to achieve the goal of entering the Kingdom of the Moon God after death.

And with the living standards of Dayue, if there is no practice, ordinary people can only live for fifty or sixty years.

Almost just before death, barely recite the "Moon God Saves the World Scripture" 10,000 times.

If there are Dayue people engaged in the funeral industry, they must be accustomed to seeing those poor old people who die with a smile.

After someone finished reciting the "Moon Goddess's Savior Scripture" devoutly, he carefully took out seven copper coins from the lining of his shirt that he had mended several times, hesitated, and finally gritted his teeth and stuffed them into a huge merit box in front of the Moon Goddess statue.

Seven coins, for the lower class, is already one-third of a day's wages.

The Moon Goddess created the world in seven days, and seven symbolizes the Moon God in numbers, so if there is only one time when seven copper coins are not invested, it cannot be considered an effective dedication.

There is no one to supervise such things in the Moon God Temple, it is purely based on self-consciousness and the supervision of other Moon God believers.

And if it is discovered once, it will be judged as deceiving and blaspheming the Moon God, which is a felony that will be put on the stake.

Therefore, even if people have no money to donate, they will not deliberately donate less.

Of course, only the poor will donate seven coins, and the richer ones will donate seven big coins each time.

The richer ones will donate seven taels of silver each time.

This is also the maximum amount of daily donations in a small religious city, not counting holidays.

Li Yan looked around the Moon Palace for a while and then left.

His office was in a wing behind the Moon Palace.

"Priest Lin, good morning, Moon Goddess."

In front of a moon gate inside the Moon Palace, two guards saluted Li Yan.

"Moon Goddess."

Li Yan returned the salute and walked in under the gaze of the two.

This is the inner circle of the Moon Palace, where the priests and Moon Goddess attendants of the Moon Palace live, work and move.

It is a place where no one is allowed to enter, so there are guards guarding the entrance.

The outer circle of the Moon Palace occupies two-thirds of the entire area of ​​the Moon Palace, and the inner circle only occupies one-third of the area.

Most of the first-class and second-class Moon Goddess attendants live in the inner circle.

Because they don't have the money to buy a house in the Moon Palace building circle.

Only as time goes by and you find your own way to make money, can you gradually accumulate enough money.

Except for the most devout believers, most people will move out of the Moon Temple after they have enough money and buy a house of their own in the Moon Temple construction circle.

The reason is very simple. Human activities cannot be carried out in the Moon Temple. Once discovered, being burned at the stake is the least of the punishment.

The Moon God Church does not prohibit marriage, so in order to satisfy their own desires or to pass on the family line, they will move out if they have the chance.

After entering the inner circle, Li Yan began to cheer up.

You know, there are many people here who are very familiar with Lin Xinchen.

Just now, as soon as he came in, he met an acquaintance of Lin Xinchen.

"Xinchen, good morning."

Li Yan looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall, beautiful, and gentle beauty greeting him.

In an instant, Li Yan realized the name and origin of this person.

Tang Querou, one of the three new moon priests of the Moon Temple, is an acquaintance of Lin Xinchen who was promoted to priest in the same batch. They have a good relationship and often have dinner and chat together.

"Good morning, Que Rou."

"Why are you here so early today? You are not always on time."

In Li Yan's mind, Tang Que Rou's information was surging wildly, and she turned this information into what Lin Xincheng might say in such a situation.

Hearing a familiar voice and seeing a familiar face, coupled with the fact that she had no vigilance in her heart, she did not realize that the person in front of her was a fake.

On the contrary, she said to Li Yan with a somewhat complaining tone, just like she treated the original Lin Xinchen: "Do you think I want to come to the temple so early? It's because the soldiers injured on the front line have returned. I want to bring them the blessing of the Moon God, so I came so early. After all, there are more people, and many things need to be prepared in advance."

"The blessing of the Moon God, what the hell?"

This was the first time Li Yan heard this term, but he was not panicked.

I don't know how to continue this topic, just change the topic and leave.

"Thank you for your hard work. Just prepare yourself. I won't bother you anymore."

"When you're done, I'll invite you to Baiyue Restaurant to drink Emperor's juice and eat mooncakes."

Hearing Li Yan's words, Tang Querou's face, which had been a little emotional, suddenly broke into a happy smile: "You said it, you can't go back on your word."

Li Yan shrugged and responded: "Of course not. You know that I, Lin Xincheng, have never regretted what I promised."

"Okay, wait for me for two days. Tomorrow night, we will meet at the Moon Worship Restaurant."

After saying that, Tang Querou waved to Li Yan and left.

Li Yan watched the other party walk away before continuing to walk forward.

All along the way, he was memorizing the route and looking for Lin Xinchen's office.

Because this is the inner circle of the Moon God Temple, Li Yan met many Moon God attendants on the way.

When they saw Li Yan, they greeted and saluted one after another. At this time, Li Yan just nodded in response.

After walking around the inner circle for most of the time, Li Yan finally found the destination - [Military Appointment Office of the General Manager of the Silver Wolf Camp].

This is the sign of the destination.

There were two guards standing at the door. They were not from the Moon God Temple, but knights sent by the Silver Wolf Camp, with peak cultivation.

"Hello, Lord Priest."

After seeing Li Yan, the two of them quickly saluted the Great Moon Army.

Li Yan nodded, replied: "Yes", and went straight into the [General Manager of the Silver Wolf Camp Military Appointment Office].

At this time, there were already several people working here, all of whom were Lin Xinchen's subordinates, and now Li Yan's subordinates.

"Meet Priest Lin."

Li Yan's arrival made them stand up and salute.

The salute they performed was a special etiquette of the Moon Temple, which was required when subordinates met their superiors.

As usual, he nodded and said "Yes".

Lin Xinchen had dealt with it this way before.

Among the few people, Li Yan also saw Yan Manzhong, who was tortured by Lin Xinchen yesterday and looked embarrassed, but today he looked as if nothing had happened.

Even the wounds he knocked out were no longer visible at this time.

However, this is normal. As a peak warrior in the Yunzang realm, Yan Manzhong can recover from a small wound in one night as long as he is willing to nourish it with qi and blood, or use good healing pills.

Feeling Li Yan's gaze on his face, Yan Manzhong's mouth twitched.

Li Yan ignored him and walked straight to his office, which made Yan Manzhong, whose heartbeat was a little faster, put his heart back in his stomach.

When he came to his office, Li Yan first familiarized himself with the environment here, and then began to look through various materials and files in the office.

Among them, it includes but is not limited to the list and basic personal information of all soldiers and knights of the Silver Wolf Camp.

It can be said that if Li Yan handed this thing to the Great Zhou Kingdom at this time, as long as the Silver Wolf Camp went to the battlefield, it would definitely be defeated.

This is equivalent to directly destroying a 10,000-man regiment of the Great Yue Kingdom. It will not play a decisive role in the battle between the two countries, but it can hit the morale of the Great Yue army.

If it happens a few more times, quantitative changes will sooner or later lead to qualitative changes.

Of course, Li Yan does not have this idea now, but it is hard to say in the future.

After writing down these important things, Li Yan began to look through all other books and letter paper with text.

He had to learn and master more and more detailed information about the Moon God Temple and the Silver Wolf Camp as soon as possible, so that he could maintain the identity of Lin Xinchen.

In a book inside the Moon God Cult, Li Yan saw the words [Blessing of the Moon God], which aroused Li Yan's interest and he quickly read it.

After reading it, Li Yan understood what [Blessing of the Moon God] meant.

As a sect, the Moon God Cult naturally had to show off its skills from time to time in order to consolidate the people's faith in the Moon God.

The method chosen by the Moon God Cult was to use the name of the Moon God to perform magic in front of the people.

Some of the magic arts with enhanced properties were called [Blessing of the Moon God].

The so-called magic arts were of course not real magic arts. In fact, they were the degraded versions of the evil-condensing spells developed by the Moon God Cult, so that innate warriors could also use them.

Of course, not all Moon God priests knew these magic arts. Only priests who met the requirements and practiced the Moon God Cult's fundamental innate skills - [Bright Moon Skill] knew them.

Lin Xinchen did not meet the requirements, so he did not learn these magic arts.

Tang Querou was sent to comfort the wounded soldiers, so she naturally learned these magic skills.

In this way, Li Yan spent three days getting familiar with the situation, and finally let the new Lin Xinchen show to everyone.

This first step was the most difficult, but Li Yan had already passed it. After that, as long as Li Yan did not commit suicide, no one would doubt whether Lin Xinchen was real or fake.

On a new day, Li Yan came to the [Military Appointment Office of the General Manager of the Silver Wolf Camp] of the Moon Temple as usual.

Then, Li Yan was approached by Yan Manzhong, who looked anxious, and told him a piece of news related to him.

"Something happened in Huichunlou, and our transaction seemed to have been discovered."
