Chapter 620 The Infected

"That... Big sister, what exactly is Jinxia, ​​which you mentioned several times before?" Li Le asked after sitting cross-legged. "From what you said, it seems to be very different from Qianren City."

Luo nodded gently, "As long as you have been to Jinxia once, you will never forget it. It was originally just a coastal city in the east of Shenzhou. It was not worth mentioning except for the production of salt, but now it has become completely different under the governance of Her Royal Highness the Princess. Food and clothing are easy to buy, and the price is very low. Even if you only eat meat for one meal every two days, the residents can save a lot of surplus and no longer have to worry about life."

"Is it true?" At this time, the other children also came up.

"Isn't it only the rich who can eat meat every day?"

"Brother Li, was your family like this before?"

"As for me... I also had a big dish every two or three days."

"Eating is just the most basic need. Jinxia also has free schools and accommodation. People of your age can basically live in the city with very little money." Luo continued gently. She found that she always felt happy when she mentioned Jinxia City. "Of course, being penniless is not a problem. You can apply to the Affairs Bureau for an opportunity to work and study at the same time, or find some short-term jobs for daily wages and settle down first. In short, as long as you are not lazy, there are many ways."

The group of people were stunned.

What Luo Qingqing said was nothing but a fantasy in their eyes.

For example, the floating island operating on the sea can catch fish and shrimps equivalent to tens of thousands of stones of grain at a time, and the air-sensing people can get along with ordinary people on an equal footing and no longer be high and mighty, and even the monsters can walk on the streets openly, etc.

If it weren't for the "deep friendship" she had forged by buying food for two consecutive days, everyone would have booed.

"Big sister, you are not kidding us, are you?"

"Isn't such a place a paradise on earth!"

"Even Shangyuan City can't do this, how can the princess change everything in Jinxia?"

Listening to the shouting of the crowd, Luo Qingqing couldn't help but be slightly startled.

By the way, the Salvation Church also used the rhetoric of the land of heaven.

And her reaction was essentially the same as that of a child.

If you look at Jinxia City from an outsider's perspective, isn't it a hidden paradise with no shortage of food or clothes?

Luo Qingqing gradually had the answer in her heart.

She knew why she subconsciously rejected the Salvation Church's statement.

-- Because she was worried that someone would threaten Jinxia City and the order created by Xia Fan.

The time she lived in Jinxia was undoubtedly the most relaxing and enjoyable time. It was this experience that made her heart tilt to a certain extent.

So she subconsciously rejected the invitation of the Salvation Church.

Seeing Li Le and others arguing endlessly in front of her, she suddenly realized that there was no need for her to worry. If she had a rejection mentality because of that worry, she would underestimate Xia Fan's achievements.

If there is really a new order that is better than Jinxia, ​​according to Xia Fan's style, he should be happy to accept it.

This may also be the reason why Xia Fan did not give her more advice on "wanting to further look at the root of the good and bad order" before leaving, but instead gave her two books.

He is different from other rulers. He does not reject those truly excellent orders, and will not regard her practice as a betrayal.

Thinking of this, Luo Qingqing couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth and let out a long breath.

Since she has personally understood Jinxia City, she should at least give the Salvation Church an equal opportunity.

...

The next day, Luo Qingqing found Wangsha again and expressed her willingness to join the Salvation Church.

"Really? That's great!" He clapped his hands happily, "I thought you would wait and see for a while before making a decision."

Yes, this is the most appropriate approach, she thought. No matter what the other party is thinking, whether it is deceiving the world or saving the people sincerely, you can see it more clearly after joining the sect.

"Is there a ceremony for joining the church?"

"There was in the past, but the situation is very different now, and we can only keep it simple." Wangsha stretched out his palm, "Please put your hand on it."

After Luo Qingqing did as he said, she found that the other party's aura was touching her again.

Just like when they first met, there was no sign of the aura condensing, and it was just taken back after a probe.

"Are you still worried that I'm infected?"

"Can you sense my aura?" Wangsha said with a little surprise, "I thought this level of contact wouldn't attract your attention." At this point, he showed an embarrassed expression, "Because you didn't have any intention to join yesterday, and even had some hostility, but today you suddenly changed your mind, so I had to check it again."

"Is infection so easy?" Luo Qingqing asked in confusion.

"Ah... It's not easy, but it's extremely harmful. Once there is a mistake, it will cause immeasurable damage." Wangsha took out a peach wood ring from his waist bag and handed it to her, "This is a simple magic weapon, wear it, and then activate it with aura."

Luo glanced at the talisman on the ring and confirmed that it was attached to the Dui-type magic, probably expanded from the fast-growing magic.

After activation, she felt her aura connected to the ring.

"The ceremony is over, welcome to join the Salvation Church." Wangsha smiled.

"Just... like this?" Luo Qingqing was stunned, "What's the use of the ring?"

"With it, you can help the Salvation Cult monitor the infection." Wangsha raised his other hand, and there was a similar wooden ring on his fingertip. "Once an infection occurs, it will fuse with the finger and become a A mark that goes deep into flesh and blood, so please don’t take off your ring at any time, especially in front of other people who are feeling the spirit.”

"Since I am now a member of the Salvation Cult, you can always tell me what this infection is and what kind of harm it does, right?" Luo Qingqing asked casually.

"Well... to put it simply, it will make you become less like yourself and gradually become another person." Wangsha thought for a while and said slowly, "This is a kind of evil effect, but it is different from ordinary people. The erosion is not exactly the same - to outsiders, you are still alive and no different from the living, but to you, the Qi that represents your consciousness has been completely reorganized, and the real you has long since died."

A flash of lightning flashed through Luo Qingqing's mind——

She remembered someone.

The former alchemist of the Privy Council Office, Fei Nian!

She took a deep breath, "Is this phenomenon... common?"

Wang Sha showed a wry smile, "This is the trickiest part. If we don't conduct contact checks, we have no way of knowing whether the other person is infected. After all, most of the time, the infected person is exactly the same as himself. For example, now in various countries How many people in the Privy Council are infected and how many are normal...it’s completely unknown. There are only a few people who know about it.”
