Chapter 2: Backward world

The carriage squeaked and squeaked. The ground of Heishui City was paved with irregular bluestone, which was very uneven, and felt a bit bumpy in the carriage.
Mei Lin sat next to Mei Xue, and the faint scent of a young girl floating from her made Mei Lin feel very comfortable, but the carriage was too bumpy. He sat for a while, and was a bit uncomfortable, and leaned on the carriage with his feet. Slightly bent, this position makes him feel more comfortable.
However, Mei Xue was very dissatisfied. She glanced at Mei Lin's legs in front of her eyes, and frowned slightly: "Merlin, can't you put your legs down? You are a noble, and you must have a noble manner."
"I'll lie for a while, I didn't sleep well last night."
Mei Lin perfunctory, still doing his own thing, maintaining the most comfortable posture for him.
Mei Xue unexpectedly did not compete with Mei Lin. She bit her lip gently, a look of worry appeared on her face, and asked carefully: "Is it because of Avril?"
Mei Lin did not answer, but Mei Xue continued to say, "In fact, you don't have to worry too much, after all, Avril has been formally engaged with you. This is a testimony of the decades-long friendship between the Barman family and my Wilson family. After all, Avril will marry you. But don't hang around in the future, use more snacks on Avril, maybe she will like you. "
Although Mei Lin closed her eyes, she didn't really go to sleep, and Mei Xue's words were firmly in her heart.
"Avril Lavigne is my fiancee? But in the meaning of Mei Xue's words, it seems that Avril Lavigne doesn't like me ... why is there no impression in my memory?"
Merlin only got a part of the memory, but some of the memories disappeared. In order not to expose his feet and be suspected by others, he must pay attention to every sentence of everyone around him and analyze the key information.
Ai Weier, like Mei Xue mentioned, must be the most important information, Mei Lin also secretly remembered in her heart.
After lying down for a while, Meilin also felt a little bored, and raised the curtain. A cold wind blew in outside, making Meilin cold and shiver.
"It's almost winter ..." Mei Lin said with emotion, it is now September, the last month of autumn, but the cold seems to come early.
"Yeah, it's almost winter, and I don't know why this year, the weather is getting colder."
Mei Xue wrapped her clothes tightly, her body curled up in the corner of the carriage.
There seemed to be a drizzle of grey rain outside. There were not many people on the street. Some were just a group of a dozen tramps, who were kneeling on the ground and begging for gorgeous people walking on the street.
These homeless men wore rough linen that they didn't know where to pick up. They were as thin as a twine of hemp, and their eyes were full of desire. There were even some young children.
Other people saw these tramps with a disgusted look, and some still covered their mouths and noses, and accelerated their pace to leave. Merlin glanced at these tramps lightly, and even gathered their eyes on a group of riders on the street. Knight on horse.
These knights all wore silver light armor, covering the upper body, holding a wooden shield in their hands, and carrying a large half-height sword on their backs, looking magnificent. The crowds on the street seemed to be afraid of these knights, and some children saw a look of envy on their faces when they saw them.
Merlin 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, and seemed to be disdainful, and said coldly: "It's this group of guys, the knights of the city defense regiment, which is useless. So many people are out of the city. I am afraid that it is the town where the thief encountered the thief. It ’s really getting more and more uneventful recently. Many towns around Heishuicheng have seen a large number of thieves. "
Merlin did not speak, but quietly kept all this information in his heart. Now that he has just come to this world, the memory in his mind is confusing and he should not speak more.
Mei Lin watched for a while. Although the knights of these city defense regiments only had more than a hundred men, they were well-equipped and everyone had a killing spirit. It would never be the futile thing Mei Xue said.
These knights were about to leave the city, and soon disappeared into Meilin's sight. After watching for a while, Merlin also felt the cold wind, and then lowered the curtain and hid in the warm carriage.
I don't know how long it took, the carriage stopped gradually, and the servant Moss called out softly, "Master Meilin and Miss Mei Xue have arrived at the church."
"Well, get off, the church is here!"
Mei Xue looked so full of energy that she immediately jumped off the carriage, and Mei Lin got off the carriage behind him. He stretched his body slightly and twisted his slightly stiff neck. Then he raised his head and saw a church in front.
This church covers a very large area, almost as large as four or five football fields. People who come and go have ordinary believers, and there are some aristocratic masters in aristocratic costumes who come to the church to pray in the morning.
The Kingdom of Light is a believer in the God of Light. The church has great power. Almost every city has churches of the Light Church. People who come to pray in the morning like this are endless.
Mei Lin also followed the crowd to the church hall. On the whitewashed walls in the hall, there were huge murals. These bright and vivid giant murals are obviously religious murals praising the God of Light.
Mei Lin saw a mural in the center with a tall, vague, unrecognizable god, exuding soft holy light. The white holy light shrouded many ordinary believers, including the elderly, children, men, women, nobles, civilians and even criminals. Under the light of the holy light, there were pious and serene smiles on their faces.
The name of this religious mural is "God Loves the World" and was written in bright text. Merlin inherited a part of the memory in his mind, so he also knew the bright text on the mural.
In addition to this mural that God loves the world, there are some murals such as God driving away darkness, God bringing light, God punishing the devil, God lowering miracles, God blessing believers, etc., although the story on the mural Different, but the meaning is the same, all are singing the glorious deeds of the bright God.
The devout believers all bowed their heads, hands resting on their chests, guided by the priest, and were praying. At one time, the large church was filled with various prayer voices.
Meilin thought of the scrawny tramp who was on the street just now and saw the people who were praying sincerely. He finally realized that this is still a very backward world!
