"But why doesn't the Divine Dragon fight back?"
"Are you silly? Didn't the Saint Monk say it's all a test for us! If the Divine Dragon vanquished the evil demon at once, how would we be tested? I reckon, once everyone has made their choice, the Divine Dragon will unleash its divine power to annihilate the evil demon!"
"Oh, right!"
The crowd was abuzz with discussion, and most people were engulfed in suspicion and doubt.
Of course, some people supported Chu Xiu because, as seen so far, it was Chu Xiu who saved them from the series of disasters, not the elusive Buddha!
But that's the nature of religion, it doesn't require explanation or questioning, a simple "Buddha's trial" can resolve all doubts.
This is where the terror of religion lies, as it uses a dual binding mode that gradually forms an inertial thinking pattern so that people obey even the most outrageous orders unconditionally without reflection.
