I was beheaded in the Middle Ages for 20 years

Chapter 58 The persecuted people
"As you said before, the number of people infected is still rising, but it is still under control. Thanks to your method, if you hadn't suggested spreading the news that I received God's revelation, maybe the epidemic this time would have The increase in the number of people may not be so easy to control.”

If the people in Raya Town panic, panic will result, and panic will lead to riots. At that time, all Xu Siling's epidemic prevention work will be in vain.

Whether it is Mayfair or Johns, including Xu Siling, all they want is a complete Raya Town.

"What's going on with your uncle John Smith?"

"Other than arranging personnel to carry out missions in the south, John had no other actions. When I went to visit him, his health was obviously much better, but he pretended to be sick and refused to get up."

Xu Siling understood what Johns was thinking: "It's useless if he doesn't pretend to be sick. Raya Town doesn't need him now."

"Then what are you worried about?"

"He is not a person who gives up easily. Faile, you should pay more attention to his actions. When the situation in Raya Town improves, he will definitely take action."

Mayfair smiled confidently: "I know, don't worry."

Seeing Fei'er like this, Xu Siling couldn't be more verbose, but he felt that Fei'er was a little strange today.

Don't you feel tired sitting like this when you sit upright on the chair, even with your chest raised?
Feier pushed a few letters on the desk and motioned for Xu Siling to read them.

"The news from the towns and castles around Raya Town, the situation of everyone in the kingdom is not optimistic."

Xu Siling came over to look at it, frowning as he looked.

"As for the details and arrangements of the epidemic prevention work in cities and towns, I have recorded the plan you proposed and when we will take action."

What Mayfair said was to use the name of God to create a new noble identity for her.

This plan was proposed by Xu Siling at that time. When Fei'er nodded yes, the two discussed the plan in detail.

But the execution of the action is inseparable from Xu Siling's decision-making. Fei'er finds this kind of thing exciting and she is willing to try it, but without Xu Siling's support, she dare not act without authorization.

"Xu, now the surrounding towns have fallen. They are plagued by the Black Death and cannot survive for long. If we start taking action now, this is a good opportunity."

"I know, but not yet."

Mayfair was curious: "Why."

"You have to wait until the Black Death in Raya Town is completely under control and the priest can convince you." Xu Siling slowly explained, "Once this plan is implemented, it cannot be stopped. Of course, the Holy Church will not deny the occurrence of miracles. , you can save Raya Town first, and then convince the priest that you have really received God’s revelation, and then try to save other people in the kingdom, otherwise”

"Then what do I need to do now." Feier suddenly felt a little helpless, her blue eyes showing boredom: "I have already listened to you. I deliberately found patients to comfort me yesterday, and even contacted some people who came to seek refuge outside. People, their spiritual sustenance for me is very strong, I can feel it.”

Xu Siling understood how Feier felt.

After all, he has been bound by John in the inner fort and has been unable to go out for a long time. Mayfair's trust among the people in Raya Town is not high.

But in just one day in Raya Town, the people's confidence in Mayfair has reached a very high index.

Under the terrible invasion of the Black Death, they all hoped to be saved. Doctors could not save them, and priests could not save them, let alone John who was also sick and lying in bed unable to get up.

Now Mayfair can save them, and it is said that Mayfair has received a revelation from God.

In addition, Raya Town has been taking in asylum seekers and rescuing patients infected with the Black Death in Raya Town. Mayfair has been encouraging everyone.

Mayfair's kind, gentle, lovely, generous and noble image is deeply implanted in the hearts of these people.

This may also be one of the benefits of being locked up for a long time without being able to go out. No one has a preliminary concept or first impression of Mayfair, so it is easier for Mayfair to win everyone's favor.

Mayfair tasted the sweetness.

She feels the people's trust in her, and this feeling is addictive.

"You first have someone copy a copy of the record and take it to the priest. Just say that this is what God taught you, and let the priest help you spread everything. There are reasons behind many arrangements for epidemic prevention work, but There is nothing in our records, and these can all be imputed to God. God’s requirements do not require reasons.”

"How can the priest help me if he doesn't believe me?" Feier said without hesitation. "Last time we contacted him, he blamed me for not attending his worship service and preaching on Sunday."

Judging from Fei'er's expression, it was obvious that she had trouble dealing with the old priest.

Also, Mayfair is an atheist, and it's okay to perform in front of people. If she really wants to waste her time on worship and preaching, she will definitely not be happy.

"Then what do you say?"

"When I say I pray for a miracle, I prefer a quieter church."

Aren't you just scolding the priest for being long-winded?

"You can rest assured and leave it to him. The fact that you have been inspired by God must be approved by the Holy Religion. We are not very good at spreading it privately, and we are not strong enough."

"Do you think he will definitely help me?" Fei'er was surprised.

"Because he had no choice."

There was already a medical school in the Kingdom of France, but the development of the medical school under the leadership of the Holy Church was in an unhealthy state.

There is no separation between theology and medicine, and there is no problem if they are collectively referred to as literature and entertainment industries.

The boundaries of science are blurry, even though some doctors have discovered that the Black Death can be contracted by talking to each other or making eye contact.

However, the doctors of the Holy Church and the medical schools under its leadership still believe that the cause of the disease is an imbalance of the patient's body fluids or a divine punishment.Whether the Black Death would spread or not was still debated until the entire Kingdom of France fell completely.

Therefore, current doctors do not have a deep understanding of the sources of infection and transmission routes.

People continued to die under the plague of the Black Death. Without help or recovery, they would only slowly lose their faith in the Holy Religion.

This is unacceptable to the Holy Church.

Xu Siling remembers that in order not to lose the people's faith in the Holy Religion, the religious conflicts caused by the outbreak of the Black Death were once transferred to the Jews.

The persecution of Jews did not occur only during World War II.

During the Crusades, the Crusader knights would rob the households of wealthy local merchants along the way, and Jews accounted for the majority of the wealthy group.

Not to mention that the Jews did not believe in the Holy Religion. During the Crusades, after the Crusaders killed the Jews, they randomly threw their bodies on the streets and trampled on them.

The Crusaders would give the local Jewish residents two ways out, either to be killed or to be baptized and convert to the Holy Faith.

Although the Jews continued to be persecuted during the Crusades, this was not entirely a targeting of a special group of Jews.

Instead, the outbreak of the Black Death ushered in a new era of anti-Semitism and persecution of Jews.

"Other towns are falling, and the Holy Church has nothing to do. As long as Raya Town is still under control, the priest will help us. He will definitely tell the Holy Church how we govern Raya Town. pope."

"When the pope discovers that our method is effective, they will have to believe in the occurrence of this miracle, and they will have to admit that you have been inspired by God, Mayfair."

Faile has always been skeptical about the fact that the entire kingdom is helpless against the Black Death.

Although most of the Kingdom of France has fallen, she still subconsciously believes that the Kingdom will think of other ways to cure the Black Death.

After all, according to Xu Siling's words, not only France, but the whole of Europe will fall, and there will be nothing that can be done about the whole of Europe.

It's not that Fei'er doesn't believe Xu Siling, it's just that she can't imagine it.

"So Faile, if you give the priest a copy of the record, it's only a matter of time before he helps you."

Mayfair responded obediently.

Just when Xu Siling put down the letter, he caught a glimpse of several other unfolded letters on the table, and the contents caught Xu Siling's attention.

Fei'er saw Xu Siling's concern and slowly told the contents of the letter.

"Some people in the south are beginning to persecute witches. According to what you told me, witches live alone in the mountains and forests and rarely come into contact with people. Unless they are bitten by fleas, they are not likely to be infected."

"I can understand it, but people don't understand it. They think that the reason why witches don't get sick much is because witches bring diseases into the world."

"Many women have been persecuted in the south, and they are looking for single women to be executed."

Xu Siling was not a holy mother. He had already known about these things and was just sighing.

"The Holy Religion doesn't care."

"These are all private actions of the people, and the Holy Religion does not recognize the existence of witches. If we really want to arrest those women and go to the Holy Religion to identify those women as witches, I am afraid that these people will be judged as heretics by the Holy Religion." Feier thought. What? He shook his head: "It's just that the Holy Religion is currently unable to interfere with other matters. It will not interfere with the people's private trials of witches."

"Mayfair, are there any Jews in our town of Raya?"

Xu Siling's abrupt words made Feier stunned for a moment.

"There are no Jews in Raya Town. Jews don't believe in the Holy Religion. They always do loan sharking and have grievances and conflicts with the people, so they all live together in groups. There are Jews in Tamubao, and they pay a lot of taxes to the nobles. Very rich."

Tamubao? What a pity, the Frofen family happens to be in Tamubao.

It seems that he can't chop off the heads of the Jews.

The private persecution of witches by the people was only the beginning. The era when the Holy Religion officially persecuted the Jews by name was also about to come.

Xu Siling didn't have a good impression of the Jews.

A group of people who made their fortune by sucking people's blood out of loan sharking, most of them don't have much kindness.

Just when Xu Siling was about to explain to Fei'er, someone knocked on the door of the bookstore.

"Miss Raya, is Xu inside?"

"What's wrong."

"Two women are looking for Xu. They claim to be Xu's wife and are now at the city gate."

Mayfair's big blue eyes were full of disbelief.

wife.

Still two!
