Chapter 2 The backward world

The wheels of the carriage were squeaking, and the ground in Heishui City was paved with irregular bluestone, which was very uneven, and it felt a bit bumpy when sitting in the carriage.

Mei Xue was sitting next to Mei Lin. The faint fragrance of girly girl floated out from her body made Mei Lin feel very comfortable, but the carriage was too bumpy. He sat for a while and was a little uncomfortable, so he leaned on the carriage with his feet slightly bent. This posture made him feel more comfortable.

However, Mei Xue was very dissatisfied. She glanced at Mei Lin's legs in front of her, frowned slightly and said, "Meilin, can't you put your legs well? You are a nobleman, you must have the demeanor of a nobleman."

"I just lie down for a while, I didn't sleep well last night."

Meilin was perfunctory and still did his own thing, maintaining the most comfortable position for him.

Mei Xue did not compete with Mei Lin in surprise. She bit her lip gently, with a look of worry on her face, and asked carefully: "Is it because of Avril?"

Merlin did not answer, but Mei Xue continued to say to herself: "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. After all, Avril has been officially engaged to you. This is a testimony to the decades of friendship between the Baman family and my Wilson family. Avril will marry you after all. But don't mess around in the future. Use more snacks on Avril, and maybe she will like you."

Although Meilin closed her eyes, she did not really fall asleep. He also kept Mei Xue's words firmly in his heart.

"Avril is my fiancée? But what Mei Xue means, it seems that Avril doesn't like me... Why don't I have any impression in my memory?"

Merlin only gained a part of the memory, but some of it disappeared permanently. In order not to reveal his strength and be suspected by others, he had to pay attention to every sentence of everyone around him and analyze the key information.

Like Avril mentioned by Mei Xue, it must be a particularly important information, and Mei Lin also kept it secretly in his heart.

After lying for a while, Meilin felt a little bored, so she lifted the curtain of the car, and a gust of cold wind came in outside, causing Meilin to shivering suddenly.

"It's almost winter..." Meilin said with emotion. It's September now, the last month of autumn, but the cold seems to have arrived early.

"Yes, it's almost winter. I don't know why this year, but the weather is getting colder and colder."

Mei Xue wrapped her clothes tightly and her body curled up in the corner of the carriage.

It seemed that it was drizzling outside, and there were not many people on the street, but only a group of more than a dozen homeless men were kneeling on the ground and begging for the gorgeously dressed people walking on the street.

These homeless men were wearing rough linens that they picked up from somewhere, they were as thin as hemp ropes, their eyes full of desire, and there were even some very young children.

When the others saw these homeless men, they looked disgusted, and some even covered their mouths and noses and quickly left. Meilin glanced at the homeless men indifferently, and then focused their eyes on a group of young knights riding horses on the street.

These knights were all wearing silver light armor, wrapping their upper bodies, holding a wooden shield in their hands, and carrying a half-person-high sword behind them, looking majestic. The crowd on the street seemed to be afraid of these knights, and some children showed a hint of envy on their faces when they saw these knights.

Meilin frowned. He didn't know these knights, but he didn't dare to ask Mei Xue.

Mei Xue also saw these knights in the carriage. She seemed very disdainful and said coldly: "It's these guys again, the knights of the city defense team, which are not useful. So many people left the city, and it's probably another town that has encountered thieves. Recently, it's getting more and more uneasy. There are many towns around Hei Shui City that have seen a large number of thieves."

Merlin did not speak, but quietly kept all the information in his heart. Now that he has just arrived in this world, the memories in his mind are very confused, so it is not advisable to talk too much.

Mei Lin observed for a while. Although there were only more than 100 knights in these city defense regiments, they were well-equipped and each of them had a murderous aura. They would never be what Mei Xue said was a good person.

These knights were about to leave the city and soon disappeared from Meilin's sight. After watching for a while, Meilin also felt the cold wind swelling, so she lowered the curtains and hid in the warm carriage.

I don’t know how long it took, but the carriage gradually stopped. Mos, the servant who drove the car, shouted softly: “Master Meilin, Miss Meixue, has arrived at the church.”

"Okay, get off the bus and the church is here!"

Mei Xue seemed full of energy and jumped out of the carriage. Mei Lin followed behind him and got out of the carriage. He stretched his body gently, twisted his slightly stiff neck, then raised his head and saw a church in front of him.

This church covers a very wide area, almost as big as four or five football fields. The people who come and go include ordinary believers and some noble masters dressed in aristocratic costumes. They all come to the church to pray in the early morning.

The Kingdom of Light believes in the God of Light, and the church is extremely powerful. Almost every city has churches of the Church of Light. People who come to pray in the early morning like now are endless.

Meilin also followed everyone to the church hall. On the white-painted walls in the hall, there were huge murals. These colorful and vivid huge murals were obviously religious murals praising the God of Light.

Merlin saw a tall, blurry and invisible god on a mural in the center, emitting a soft holy light. The white holy light enveloped many ordinary believers, including old people, children, men, women, nobles, civilians and even criminals. Under the illumination of the holy light, these people all showed pious and peaceful smiles on their faces.

The name of this religious mural is God Loves the World, and it is written in light words. Meilin inherited some of the memories in his mind, so he also knew the light words on the mural.

In addition to this mural in which God loves the world, there are also some murals such as God drives away darkness, God brings light, God punishes the devil, God brings miracles, God blesses believers, etc. Although the stories on the murals are different, the meanings are the same, and they are all praising the glorious deeds of the God of Light.

The devout believers all lowered their heads, pressed their hands against their chests, and were praying by the pastor. For a moment, the huge church was filled with various voices of prayer.

Merlin thought of the thin vagabond on the street just now, and when he saw the people who were praying devoutly, he finally realized that this place was still a very backward world after all!
