Chapter 688: Deep Space Belief in the Table World (Part II)
The temple in the center of the city was only a frame, and although it was only about half built, they could all see it in Jegtos...... The architectural style and some details of that "temple" are very similar to the deep space temple of Kakosha in the western continent.
Other words.
The temple was built in the style of Kakosha, and there must have been someone who contributed to it, and even described the details of the temple based on Kakosha's life experience.
"I just told me all the good things that Ah Jing has done, as for what these people think...... That's their business. ”
Qiao Youning withdrew his gaze with a smile and turned his head to look at Jegotos.
"It's someone else, not me."
"Well, it's Tsukano Kushiro, and the dozen or so candidates who live in Kakosha for a long time, and they are much more diligent than you." Yegtos didn't deny Qiao Youning's words, but just nodded with a complicated expression, "But in the final analysis, the real big impact is caused by you." ”
"I don't dare to take the credit." Qiao Youning shrugged.
"Actually, the king doesn't need the faith of these ordinary people."
Jegotos turned his head to look at the center of the city, and looked at the faces of the construction site with the word fanaticism written on them, and he couldn't help but think of those deep space fanatics hundreds of millions of years ago.
"For Ah Jing and the humans of this world, the spread of the deep space faith is a good thing for both parties."
Qiao Youning put her hands behind her back and took a few steps forward.
"Ah Jing can get many loyal believers, they can save Ah Jing a lot of trouble, and they can also help him monitor some potential threats to the people......"
"Threat?" Jegotos snorted disdainfully, "Is there anyone else in this world who can threaten the king?" ”
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about a physical threat, I'm talking about ...... Some influence on the mentality. Qiao Youning sighed, "From a certain point of view, I know Ah Jing better than you, don't look at him like an indestructible stone, he is actually quite sensitive and fragile in his heart." ”
"I don't understand." Jegtos shook his head.
"He is different from Li Mobai...... You should know that Hanging City Priest surnamed Li, right? Qiao Youning looked at Yegtos.
"Yes." Jegtos nodded and replied, "I've heard from you that he's the only survivor of the Hanging City candidates, and he doesn't seem to have returned to the Table World with us. ”
"Yes, Li Mobai is a person who wants to save the world from the bottom of his heart, he has his own set of logical closed-loop concepts, he wants to save the world first and then change the world, until this mundane place becomes his ideal utopia......"
Speaking of this, Qiao Youning shook her head.
"But your king is not like this, he doesn't have such big ideals, he just wants the people around him to live a better life, he just wants to live a relaxed and comfortable life, as for saving the world or something......"
"The king doesn't want to save the world?" Jegtos wondered.
"He wants to save and he doesn't want to save, so he's conflicted." Qiao Youning smiled helplessly, "For him, saving the world is like an unshirkable responsibility, and what he hates the most is the responsibility imposed on himself, but he can't bear to watch the destruction ......of this world."
Yegtos was stunned by Qiao Youning for a while, and he listened silently and stopped interrupting.
"He's not a natural hero, but he's not very resistant to being a hero, and it takes a process, a process of convincing himself...... Judging from what he is doing so far, he is indeed on the road to save the world, but he is being pushed by external forces. ”
If he could, he would like to give this responsibility to others, so that others can accomplish this great achievement of saving the world, the title of savior...... He doesn't care and doesn't want to. ”
Hearing this, Jegtos said he didn't understand even more.
"Since you know so much, why do you want to add a psychological burden to the king? You know these believers ......"
"Because that's the only way to do it." Qiao Youning smiled bitterly, "I know his indecisive temperament too well, while saying that he doesn't want to be a savior, he thinks it's too troublesome, but on the other hand, he is soft-hearted, and he can't see the world suffering too much." ”
"......," Jegtos was silent.
"So he will definitely contradict himself and continue to move forward, no one can persuade him, no one can persuade him." Qiao Youning lowered his head, looking at the ordinary people in the city who were kneeling down and praying towards the temple, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, "No matter how much he is wronged, he will be wronged and continue to take steps." ”
"What does this have to do with the threats you mentioned?" Yegtos felt that his mind was a little confused, and it was difficult to understand the connection between Qiao Youning's words, "You said that those believers can monitor the civil threat for the king...... What exactly is the threat? ”
"Speech." Qiao Youning said frankly, "There are many people who suspect that Gegero came because of Ah Jing, although the reality is like this, but I don't allow them to say it." ”
“?” Jegtos froze.
"In addition to the need to control public opinion, there are many ...... For example, those moral people who feel that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, they will take Ah Jing's future efforts for granted, and will even say some disgusting things to engage in Ah Jing's mentality. ”
Qiao Youning spread her hands helplessly, and between the lines of her soft words, there was a trace of murderous intent.
"You also know that Ah Jing has a bad mentality, and sometimes he is scolded by others, and he has to be depressed for a long time...... I don't want him to be unhappy. ”
"If anyone dares to come out and say these disgusting things, I'll be the first to cut off their heads!" Jegtos said angrily.
"Then let's go, we won't save them." Bai Aji couldn't help but speak.
"It's not going to go." Qiao Youning shook his head, "Ah Jing will feel that there are still many innocent people in this world, so even if he is wronged, he will continue to be a hero who saves the world, to put it bluntly, he has a certain moral baggage, and he is so conflicted that he is ...... death"
It was only at this point that Jegotos understood.
"Anyway, Wang Hengzhu wants to save the world, so ...... Do you want the king to save happily, and make him feel that these people he saved are worth living? ”
"That's right, that's it!" Qiao Youning snapped her fingers and looked at Yegtos with a smile, "Since he can do such a great thing, then I will let the whole world sing praises for him, as for those disgusting guys, naturally there are believers to deal with it, and the scene is too ugly if you make a move!" ”
"Wang ...... Know you did this? Jegotos asked tentatively.
"Of course not."
Qiao Youning sat down like a little girl, looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance with her hands on her cheeks.
"He's actually quite childish, and he says he doesn't like to be famous, but in his heart he likes to hear someone praise him...... This time I'm going to make the whole world praise him! ”
Looking at the seemingly weak back in front of him, Yegotos was suddenly a little moved, because among the humans he had come into contact with, only Qiao Youning was willing to think so much for Chen Jing, and only she was willing to help Chen Jing so much unconditionally.
"It's also a kind of luck for Wang to have a friend like you." Jegtos' words were the highest compliment, at least no other creature had ever been so praised by him.
"Luckily for me."
Qiao Youning smiled and said without looking back.
"I'm lucky to have a friend like him."
