With the support of a ninth-level civilization, do you want me to believe in electronic gods?

Chapter 16 The truth?

The sunlight passes through the open wooden door and shines directly on the statue of the god sitting on the cement floor.

Under the sunlight, the goddess depicted in the statue becomes more solemn and sacred.

He silently watches everyone who walks through the door, and equally blocks everyone who tries to pass through the corridor and go deep into this room.

Xu Huai said nothing, but looked at Chen Fan who had just entered the house with alert eyes.

In her opinion, this statue can be regarded as a test.

A test that can screen out almost everyone!

Under Xu Huai's gaze, Chen Fan stepped forward without any psychological pressure, then raised his feet and smoothly crossed the statue placed at the door.

Perhaps due to the sequelae of being "captured" just now, Chen Fan's steps were slightly unsteady, and his toes even lightly touched the back of the statue.

The corner of Xu Huai's mouth twitched, and most of the warning in his eyes was eliminated - no sane Chosen One would be able to do such an unorthodox behavior!

Not to mention the Chosen One, even the most ordinary believers would not behave like this!
Unlike the suspicious Xu Huai, Chen Fan had already subconsciously looked around.

Due to the "professional habits" left over from his previous life, he subconsciously wanted to obtain some basic information from the surrounding environment when he was in a strange environment.

The interior of the room was quite tidy, and there was a faint fragrance in the circulating air - exactly the same as the fragrance he smelled just now, but more intense.

It can be seen that Xu Huai is not a sloppy person, and the so-called casual discarding of idols naturally becomes nonsense.

The sun was shining outside, but the room was a little dark.

Chen Fan frowned, subconsciously clasped his hands together, and whispered: "Lord..."

The words of the prayer were stuck in his throat before he finished speaking.

Unlike his own home, Xu Huai's home does not have the familiar incandescent light bulbs on the ceiling.

There is an abrupt dark gray pit and a little exposed wire on the white-painted ceiling, which is the trace left by the forcible removal of the incandescent light bulb!
"Don't look, there are no lights in the house."

Xu Huai's voice came from behind: "Do you know the reason?"

Before Chen Fan could speak, Xu Huai shook his head.

"Forget it, this matter is probably still..."

Chen Fan turned around and looked at the flash of loneliness on Xu Huai's face. He said with a normal expression:
"God... He's watching us, right?"

……

There was dead silence in the room.

The creak of the wooden windows caused by the breeze echoed through the room.

Chen Fan looked at Xu Huai who was following him indifferently.

At this time, Xu Huai no longer had the cold attitude before.

Her eyes widened suddenly, her red lips slightly opened, and the word horror was written all over her pretty face.

Under Chen Fan's gaze, she subconsciously took a step back: "You...you..."

"How could you..."

Chen Fan took over the conversation and took control of the words: "The statue of God is His eyes that monitor the world. That's why you put the statue of God at the door to avoid His surveillance. I said Right?"

"But you may be mistaken."

"As far as I can see, those light bulbs have no monitoring function. They can only recognize special voice commands."

As for how it was discovered...

If the light bulb had a surveillance function, he would have been taken away by people from the church early this morning - the cross-universe teleportation last night caused quite a stir!
Chen Fan's words completely shocked Xu Huai.

She took a deep breath, struggled to calm down the shock in her heart, and then asked in a low voice:
"...You, how did you find out?"

Chen Fan spread his hands: "Is it difficult?"

"Isn't this just a matter of having some brains?"

Xu Huai's expression froze, and his calm mood was shaken again by Chen Fan's words.

"I didn't expect that the first person to realize the problem would be a chosen one..."

As he said this, Xu Huai laughed out loud as if he was mocking himself.

Chen Fan's heart moved.

There is a lot of information hidden in Xu Huai’s words!

Seeing that she had no intention of explaining accordingly, Chen Fan could only suppress his confusion for the time being.

"Can you tell me more specifically?" Xu Huai asked again, "How did you become aware of these problems?"

Chen Fan's expression suddenly became strange. It can't be said that he is actually a person from another universe, so he can immediately find that there is a problem in this world, right?

"cough!"

He cleared his throat and tried to recall every bit of information recorded in the original owner's notes: "It's a long story..."

……

More than ten minutes later.

Chen Fan, who said that his mouth was dry, breathed a long sigh of relief.

Damn, I finally figured it out.

If he hadn't had a pretty good memory, he might have exposed the secret this time!

Xu Huai did not express any opinion, but nodded thoughtfully.

"so……"

Chen Fan calmed down and asked Xu Huai, "Can you tell me the information you know?"

"What is going on in this world?"

"What is the so-called God? What about the Church and the Chosen One?"

Facing several questions raised by Chen Fan, Xu Huai hesitated and then slowly shook his head:
"Sorry, no."

The expression on Chen Fan's face suddenly froze.

We’ve come this far, are you telling me this?
Are you kidding me?
An unknown anger at being played by someone rose up in Chen Fan's heart.

Perhaps sensing the anger in Chen Fan's heart, Xu Huai opened his mouth to explain: "I have revealed the truth about this world to many people."

"It's a pity that no one believed what I said."

"Actually, that's understandable."

Xu Huai smiled silently: "Sometimes the truth is so bizarre that no one will believe it."

Seeing the faint sadness in Xu Huai's eyes, Chen Fan suddenly fell into silence, and the trace of anger in his heart slowly dissipated.

He has a certain understanding of human nature and psychology and can understand Xu Huai's words.

It is indeed difficult for humans to accept information that is too much beyond their own cognition.

Normally, the brain will uniformly classify such information as false information.

There are exceptions to everything.

Once people completely believe this information beyond cognition, it may lead to another consequence.

For example, the original owner of this body.

After realizing that the so-called gods were nothing but a big lie, his faith and spirit were completely shattered.

The cruel truth is not something that everyone is qualified to touch at will.

"After experiencing several failures and even almost paying for it with my life, I realized something deeply."

Xu Huai said to himself: "Hearing with ears is false, seeing with eyes is believing."

"People believe what they see."

As he said that, Xu Huai shook his head with a bitter look on his face: "Although your knowledge of God far exceeds my expectations, but..."

"I still don't think the truth I know is acceptable to you now."

Chen Fan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

After experiencing major changes such as time travel in just a few dozen hours, Chen Fan didn't feel that anything else in the world could affect his extremely tenacious world view!
but……

Xu Huai obviously didn't think so.

After experiencing several failures, she had to be more cautious.

After a moment of silence, Xu Huai stared into Chen Fan's eyes and whispered: "Find time to go to the church and learn about the history of this city."

"The truth is often hidden in obscure corners."

"Although they have revised all the history books,... there are still some loopholes after all."

"You can see through the cracks. From these loopholes, you may be able to have a clearer understanding of the so-called God."
