Jiang Fei pretended to be curious and asked the villagers: "Who is the true God?"
"He is not a human being, but a god who has given us a pure land and given us food and clothing."
"As long as you become a believer in the true God, you can live in the end times without worries."
When talking about the true God, the villagers all showed pious expressions on their faces.
At this time, the village chief came over and offered temptation with a kind smile: "There will be a purification ceremony in three days. If you are willing to stay and join us, you will have the opportunity to become a saint son or a saint daughter and enjoy the best treatment."
"Every meal has fresh fruits, vegetables, and meat. We can live in a warm and comfortable house with water and electricity."
"Even if you are sick, don't worry, the true God will heal you for free."
The village chief looked at Jiang Fei and said, "One of my duties as the village chief is to select candidates for the Holy Son and Holy Daughter for the True God."
"Dani, you have a unique temperament. If you don't mind, you can stay and be the candidate saint."
"And before that, you can be a candidate for the Holy Son."
"Once the True God's Grand Assembly chooses you, you will have a life of food and clothing without worries."
The other four people were older, and their looks and temperament were not as good as Huang Dani and Niu Qianqian. The probability of them being chosen by that person was too low, so it was not worth it for him to come looking for them specifically.
Jiang Fei pretended to be surprised: "Then I will have endless amounts of pork to eat in the future?!"
"Of course." The village chief said symbolically:
"Your friends also have the opportunity to participate."
Xu Qianyao cooperated and said, "In this case, why should we go to the safe house? The village is much better than there!"
Yin Jing: "I don't want to be hungry again, I want to stay in this village and be a saint!"
Huang Wenzhou and Cao Xingying looked longing, saying things like they hoped the true God would choose them.
The contempt in the village chief's eyes disappeared in an instant.
Refugees are always so gullible. They believe it when you see a few big promises.
A bunch of idiots.
—
The welcome party was over, and the villagers stayed behind to clean up the dishes. Jiang Fei and others walked towards the intersection holding umbrellas.
There was no one around, so Yin Jing threw the piece of meat hidden in her bag into the soil and buried it with disgust.
"What pure land, carefree? It's clearly a cruel brainwashing organization!"
Xu Qianyao: "Everyone, hold on for a few more days. When the boss behind the scenes shows up and we get the evidence, we can catch these bastards in one fell swoop."
"Jiang Fei, Lu Yu, you should be careful recently. The village chief took the initiative to choose you as the candidate saint son and saint daughter. I guarantee that he has no good intentions."
After giving the instructions, Xu Qianyao and his three companions returned to the east of the village, while Jiang Fei and Lu Yu returned to the west of the village.
Jiang Fei was still thinking about what had just happened.
In her previous life, she didn’t know about the Pure Land Conference and the true God, so she must have been Jiang Zixuan.
Jiang Zixuan took the initiative to expose his supermarket savings and his status was so high that the village chief wanted to worship him.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if Jiang Zixuan asked the village chief to eat shit, he could eat three large bowls of shit in a row.
Jiang Zixuan wanted to imprison her and torture her, so the village chief naturally would not hand her over to the so-called true god.
However, in this life, the village chief can only go to hell to see Jiang Zixuan.
Jiang Fei thought about it and walked into the small brick house.
Seeing Lu Yu take out the compressed biscuits to eat, Jiang Fei pretended to rummage through his backpack and took out 6 room temperature vegetarian buns from the supermarket warehouse.
During extremely hot weather, she thought the food in the supermarket warehouse was too hot and it was troublesome to take it out and let it cool down, so she specially dried a batch of food.
It is at room temperature, so you can eat it anytime, and you don’t have to worry about it being too cold and causing stomach upset.
"I went out to steal some fish last night, and there was no meat in it."
"Thank you." Lu Yu took the bun and took a bite.
The skin is thin and the filling is large, which is made of cabbage and eggs, and the taste is delicious.
The only vegetable dish on the dinner table just now was sweet potato leaves, proving that there is a shortage of vegetables in the village.
Not to mention foods like eggs.
Besides, the bun filling tastes very much like the ones made by my neighbor.
Lu Yu felt doubtful, as he did not think vegetarian buns were a popular food in the village.
Since Jiang Fei didn't explain, he didn't ask any more questions to pry into the other party's privacy.
In order to be the candidate for the identity of the Saint and the Son, Jiang Fei and Lu Yu were awakened by the villagers the next day.
Either they came to deliver food or they pulled them to sing and dance together.
As the villagers said, people living here don't need to work at all and can live happily every day.
Jiang Fei and Lu Yu took the opportunity to ask questions and secretly recorded the audio using the camera's video function.
Only then did I know that the purification conference is held once a month.
There are few holy sons, but most of them are holy daughters.
Those chosen by the true God will leave the village to live in a big house and never come back.
As for what the real god looks like, all the villagers who have seen him are crazy about praising him, saying that he has stunning beauty and is the most beautiful person in the world.
Jiang Fei only listened to what was useful.
A man in his teens.
Apart from this, there are no important clues.
These villagers are pretty tight-lipped.
Resisting the urge to torture the villagers, Jiang Fei continued to chat with them with a fake smile.
Not only Jiang Fei, Lu Yu's face was almost frozen from smiling.
The desire to kill someone reached its peak at this moment.
Finally, I made it to the purification meeting.
This morning.
Aunt Hua knocked on the door, waking up Jiang Fei and Lu Yu.
Wearing an ankle-length robe.
He held two more in his arms.
"The robe represents our purity and innocence."
"Put on your robes and follow me to the square to attend the purification ceremony."
Jiang Fei secretly checked the robe and put it on only after making sure it was fine.
The robe is made of waterproof fabric and has a hood, so it can be used as a raincoat.
The three of them went to the village square.
All the villagers wore traditional Chinese robes and stood around the awning without umbrellas and wearing hats.
Under the awning stood a dozen excited young men and women, villagers who had come to attend the cleansing ceremony.
A small generator was placed on the platform, connected to a microphone on a stand.
"Dani, come forward, stand in the middle of the first row."
Aunt Hua asked everyone to stand in 5 rows, with 6 people in each row.
Jiang Fei observed secretly.
Xu Qianyao did not participate and stood among the crowd.
Yin Jing and Cao Xingying are in the third row, and Huang Wenzhou is in the fourth row.
Suddenly, there was a crackling sound of electric current.
The village chief, also wearing a robe, stood on the platform and knocked on the microphone.
Seeing everyone looking at him, the village chief gave a hypocritical smile and began to speak a brainwashing speech: "The reason why we can stand here safely today is not because we are lucky and have escaped the punishment from heaven, but because of the blessing of the true God!"
"The true God would rather give up his cultivation and come down to earth to save us. Shouldn't we kneel down and thank God for his grace?"
"Yes!" the villagers answered in unison and knelt down and kowtowed.
Jiang Fei and his companions followed the villagers and did as they were told.
When everyone stood up, the village chief raised his voice: "Now, let us welcome the coming of the true God!"
The villagers bowed their heads respectfully.
Jiang Fei raised his eyes and took a peek.
Not far from the square is the village chief’s house.
A man in a robe and holding an umbrella came out from the back door.
As the other party got closer, Jiang Fei's eyes trembled.
Shang Su?
Is he the real God?!
The sleeves of the robe were wide and could cover the hands. Jiang Fei quickly took out two ugly talismans from the supermarket and quietly stuck them on himself and Lu Yu.
Almost at the moment when the talisman paper disappeared, Lu Yu's appearance changed drastically.
Sparse eyebrows, uneven eyes, sausage-shaped mouth, and a face full of pits and dents.
Her teammates were all so ugly that it was unbearable to look at them, so she wouldn't have any problems.
Little did he know that Lu Yu had turned ugly and was secretly looking at the person who was approaching.
It seems... I've seen it somewhere before?
As for Yin Jing, Huang Wenzhou, and Cao Xingying, they had no interaction with Shang Su and did not know each other.
But Xu Qianyao, for safety's sake, saw Shang Su and immediately retreated behind the villagers, covering half of his face with his hat.
Village chief: "True God, please."
Shang Su took the microphone and deliberately lowered his voice, saying, "In order to come down to earth to save Cang Ni, I lost my divine power and divine body. I need the Son and the Holy Daughter to practice with me in order to maintain the physical body I am currently using."
"The Saint Son and Saint Daughter will also receive the benefits of cultivation and live a stable and happy life forever."
"Raise your heads and tell me, are you willing to repair the chain with me?"
The men and women under the awning said "yes" excitedly, and Shang Su glanced at the people below the stage.
At first glance, I saw a girl with scowl-shaped eyebrows, squinty eyes, a round face, buck teeth and a sausage-shaped mouth standing in the middle of the front row.
Shang Su looked away in disgust. The boy next to him was even uglier.
How could the village chief agree to let such an ugly guy attend the purification ceremony?
Is he that hungry???
