I traveled through time and became the Queen of Ancient Dian
Chapter 97: Looking to a New Path, Showing Faith
The man who came was none other than Zhang Du. With a solemn expression on his face, he lowered his voice and said, "We discovered that Priest Sikong has not given up. He has secretly contacted some local forces..."
Baona's heart tightened. She had expected that Priest Sikong would not give up, but she did not expect that he would counterattack so quickly.
The ancient Dian Kingdom was vast, and on the map, large unmarked areas were like sleeping beasts, hiding countless unknown challenges.
Baona's eyes swept across the map, from the prosperous capital to the remote villages, and a heavy pressure rose in her heart.
The surroundings were silent, with only her light breathing echoing in the room, adding to the solemn atmosphere.
She clenched her fists, her eyes determined, and whispered, "We must spread the new faith before they do."
At the same time, in a dark corner deep in the temple, Priest Sikong was conspiring with representatives of several local forces.
The dim light shone on his sinister face, making his eyes look even more cunning, like a poisonous snake lurking in the darkness.
He gritted his teeth and said, "We must not let them succeed. We must unite and prevent them from entering our territory!" He waved his arms and spoke excitedly, like a beast forced into a desperate situation, exuding strong hatred and unwillingness.
"They have already incited a lot of people. If we let them continue..." a representative of a local force said worriedly.
"Don't worry," Priest Sikong smiled coldly, "I have already made arrangements. They can't even set foot in our territory!" There was a hint of cruelty in his smile, as if he had foreseen Baona's failure.
When the news reached Bao Na, she was discussing the next plan with the religious scholar Sikou and the theologian Duanmu.
Upon hearing the news, Baona stood up suddenly, and the bamboo slips in her hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
"They actually..." She clenched her fists in anger, her knuckles turning white. She never expected the conservative forces to be so despicable as to use such means to prevent the spread of faith.
The scholar Sikou frowned, while the theologian Duanmu stroked his beard with a serious expression.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard, and a messenger rushed into the room, knelt on one knee, and said hurriedly: "Report! Our propaganda team... has been blocked outside the city!"
Baona paced back and forth in the room anxiously, her steps so heavy that it seemed as if every step was stepping on everyone's heart.
The propaganda team was blocked outside the city. As time went by, the people's enthusiasm for the new belief concept gradually died out like a charcoal fire that was poured with cold water.
She could feel the weight of responsibility on her shoulders, like a mountain pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe.
The scholar Sikou frowned and kept tapping the table with his fingers, making a dull "dong dong" sound, as if knocking on everyone's hopes.
Theologian Duanmu remained silent, his deep gaze seemed to penetrate the wall and see the unknown predicament in the distance.
"Are we just going to give up like this?" Baona murmured to herself, her tone full of unwillingness.
The room was silent, no one answered her, only depression and anxiety filled the air.
Outside the window, the sun sets, and the fiery clouds in the sky are like burning hope, but are gradually swallowed by the darkness.
"No, there must be a way!" Baona suddenly raised her head with a firm look in her eyes. She would never give up easily.
At this moment, missionary Zhang Du pushed the door open and walked in with a mysterious smile on his face.
"I've heard some news," he paused and looked around at everyone, "perhaps we can find another way."
Baona and others immediately gathered around, their eyes gleaming with anticipation.
"Although Priest Sikong has blocked the main roads, the terrain of the ancient Dian Kingdom is complex, and there are many unknown secret passages..." Missionary Zhang Du said slowly, with confidence in his eyes, as if everything was under his control.
Hearing these words, Baona's heart was shocked, as if she saw a ray of hope.
"Really? That's great!" She clenched her fists excitedly, as if she had seen the hope of success.
Missionary Zhang Du nodded, took out a sheepskin map from his arms and slowly unfolded it.
In addition to the main roads marked on the map, there are also some winding paths, like secret passages hidden in the fog.
"These paths can bypass Priest Sikong's blockade and lead directly to those blocked areas..." Missionary Zhang Du pointed at the map and said firmly, "We can use these paths to spread the new faith!"
Everyone looked at the map with excitement in their eyes.
This is undoubtedly a bold and risky plan, but it is also their only hope.
Just as everyone was getting ready to leave, a guard hurried in with a letter in his hand.
"It was sent by Her Majesty the Queen," the guard handed the letter to Baona respectfully.
Baona took the letter and looked at it in confusion. The envelope was printed with the royal seal of the ancient Dian Kingdom.
She slowly opened the envelope and saw the words written on it...
Baona opened the envelope, and the beautiful handwriting was clearly visible on the paper. Between the lines flowed the Queen's encouragement and support, as well as full trust.
In the letter, the Queen not only highly praised Bona's efforts, but also promised to provide all necessary material assistance to help her overcome difficulties and complete the great mission of faith transformation.
While reading the letter, Baona seemed to see the Queen's gentle and firm eyes, and her heart was filled with emotion.
She took a deep breath and held the letter tightly against her chest, feeling the warmth from the Queen.
A happy smile spread across her face, showing her deep affection for the Queen.
When the people around saw this scene, they all felt the deep affection between them and became more determined to follow Baona.
With the support of the Queen, Baona's confidence increased.
She immediately assembled a team and embarked on a new journey according to the map provided by Governor Zhang.
They followed the winding secret passages, passed through the dense jungle, climbed over steep mountains, overcame numerous difficulties, and finally arrived at a new area.
The people in the new area are full of curiosity about Baona's arrival.
They had never seen such a propaganda team, let alone heard of such a new belief concept.
Baona stood in the center of the crowd, speaking passionately with a gleam in her eyes.
She used easy-to-understand language to explain the concept of the new faith, successfully attracting the attention of a large number of people.
The atmosphere at the scene was warm and full of anticipation. Many people were moved by Baona's speech and expressed their willingness to accept the new faith.
The news soon reached the ears of Priest Sikong.
He smashed the wine glass in his hand in frustration, "Damn it! They actually bypassed our blockade!"
"Master Priest, what should we do now?" a confidant asked anxiously.
Priest Sikong paced back and forth in the room with a gloomy face.
"Humph, you think you can escape my clutches like this? Too naive!" He stopped abruptly, a sinister glint in his eyes. "Pass the order down, gather all the priests immediately. I have something important to announce!"
