Karen said it straight through without any pause;

He didn't want to waste time and wait until Dis went down to find that Ron had gone home from get off work, and then cause any messy developments and troubles.

Dis didn't waste any time, turned around and walked out directly.

After about two minutes,

Ron walked into Karen's room, and Dis immediately walked in and closed the door.

"Master, what do you want to see me for?" Ron was still a little confused. Even if he wanted to talk to him about work, he should be in the study room. "I accidentally missed it just now, and I feel very guilty about it.

This will never happen again."

Ron could only guess that he made a mistake when lifting the young master before and was sued.

"Ron, give me that copper coin."

"copper?"

Ron took the copper coin out of his pocket but held it in his hand.

"Give it to me," Dis said.

The majesty of Dis is great;

Ron took a deep breath, and finally slowly opened his palms.

Dis reached out and took the copper coin.

Ron looked at the copper coins that had left his grasp, and his eyes gradually became dull again:

"My money...my money...my money..."

While muttering, he made a show of trying to snatch the copper coin back from Dis.

While Dis was looking at the copper coins, he grabbed Ron's neck with his other hand and squeezed hard. Ron knelt on the ground in pain. Under the suppression of Dis's hand, Ron lost the ability to resist.

I can only start to have runny nose, like a drug addict.

"Why is it here?" Dis said with some confusion.

Karen asked curiously: "What is this?"

"The Source of Evil in the Church of Lux."

"The source of evil?"

It seems that it is not impossible to call money the source of evil, although it is a bit one-sided.

Dis had no intention of hiding anything from Karen. He said in the hospital that day that when Karen recovered from his injuries, he would tell him everything Karen wanted to know.

"The Church of Lax has many believers in the Eastern Desert Continent. What they advocate is to endure suffering in this life in order to pursue the liberation of the soul in the next life. They require believers to remain simple in the face of material conditions and to maintain an indifferent heart toward materials that exceed their survival needs.

.”

After hearing Dis's introduction, Karen was not surprised at all by the teachings of the Lacks Church, nor was he even surprised.

Except for some extreme ones, most orthodox churches actually catered to the needs of the ruling class when they were first founded, emphasizing the patience and obedience of the people at the bottom, and eliminating the uneasy factors in the social structure.

The Lacks Church is a relatively typical one, taking the opposite path to the Berry Church.

Dis's thumb gently rubbed the copper coin:

“According to legend, the true god Lax felt that his people were seduced by wealth and wars continued, so when he died, he cast a bronze coffin inlaid with nine demon pythons;

He also ordered the believers to collect the source of evil in the world, smelt 9 coins of the source of evil, and seal them together with his body in a bronze coffin."

While Dis was talking, Karen was also retrieving her own memory. To be precise, it was the memory of the previous "Karen":

"Lux's treasure?"

"Yes." Dis nodded, "Many people imagine that the location of Lux's tomb is a mountain of treasure hiding places. This element also appears in the plots of many novels and movies."

In the memory of the last "Karen", there is an explorer's novel, which tells the story of the protagonist discovering Lux's tomb and finding the treasure, but triggering Lux's curse.

Dis sat down beside Karen's bed and placed the copper coin in front of Karen:

"The main reason is that in the story of the Church of Lax, the arrangement made by the true god Lax before his death is too much like collecting treasures for his own burial. But in fact, what Lax collected and sealed in the bronze coffin was the result of human greed.

Desire and greed turned into 9 coins instead of a mountain of real wealth.

But now it seems that the idea of ​​True God Lax is still too beautiful and simple. Even if he really collected and sealed all the greed in the area where his followers were, greed will continue to breed, and it will breed.

Still very fast.”

"Then this copper coin is the source of Lux's sin, one of the nine?" Karen asked.

Dis shook his head: "No, if it is one of those nine, it will not only affect the person holding it. Wherever it appears, it can even attract people from an entire city to rush for it.

It goes to kill each other.

This should be the behavior of a high-level priest of the Lax Church who sacrificed to the simulated god Lax before he died. He collected greedy coins and refined them to prepare for his burial.

The functions are similar, but the effect and influence cannot be compared with the handiwork of the true god Lux.

I guess that the tomb of the sacrificial priest was stolen, which caused the copper coin to be circulated, and the age cannot be determined.

Of course, for ordinary people, it still has extremely powerful bewitching power. After all, few ordinary people have a spiritual dam that can withstand the impact of huge wealth.

Moreover, even if you can keep yourself in the beginning, if you keep them around for a long time, it is easy to be slowly infiltrated and influence each other, or even blend in with each other.

It is a 'sacred weapon', and if it is placed in the order of the Cult of Kosmos, its ranking will not be low."

"How is grandpa going to solve it?"

"I will hand it over. It is not safe to keep it sealed at home. After handing it over, it will be properly placed."

When Karen heard that she was going to hand it in, she felt a little distressed for no reason.

This is not the kind of distress you feel about money, but this kind of "prop" with special effects, or "sacred weapon". I always feel that it is better to keep it with you, just like a little squirrel hiding a pine cone, regardless of whether it is useful or not.

If I use it, I will hoard it, and I will be happy.

But what grandpa said is indeed right. If something happens to you at home, you may come home one day:

Uncle, aunt, aunt and a group of cousins ​​all sat there blankly and shouted over and over again:

"My money...my money..."

This picture makes people shudder just thinking about it.

"Then why was that demon who bewitched last night so powerful?"

Ron still looks silly now, and Karen doesn't think that if Ron wears this copper coin for another ten days and a half, Ron will be able to have the terrifying ability that the old woman had last night.

"That was a fortune teller. I checked her body in the morgue and found some tattoos on her body. She should be a traveling fortune teller, a Chasai person."

In the last memory of "Karen", there was knowledge about the "Chasai people". In Karen's view, this group is very similar to the Gypsies. They are a wandering group and there are three main occupations for making a living:

Divination, theft and prostitution.

Luojia City also has a small settlement of Chasai people.

In the memory of "Karen", there is a scene two years ago. A Chasai husband was riding a motorcycle with his wife. When he passed by "Karen" who was walking alone after school, the husband was kind.

asked "Karen" if he wanted to experience his wife's skills;

"Karen" was frightened and ran home as if running away, and her autism condition further worsened.

"So, it's not just the priests of the church who have special abilities?" Karen asked.

"Who told you this?" Dis asked.

This already involves a "system" issue.

"Alfred told me."

"The priests of the church are the mainstream." Dis explained, "The mainstream sometimes does not even refer to the majority, but because they can stand calmly in the sun. In fact, there are many who do not belong to the church but have their own unique

Groups and even individuals who inherit methods can also have the... special abilities you mentioned."

After speaking, Dis looked at Ron on the ground:

"Order...purge!"

Karen, who was lying on the bed, saw a white light shining on Dis's index finger, and then the fingertip touched Ron's eyebrow.

Ron's body began to twitch violently, and at the same time, wisps of black mist began to rise from his mouth and nose.

Dis said: "Excessive mental dependence is also a disruption of order."

Seeing this scene, Karen really wanted to ask Dis if this "skill" could also be used to quit nicotine?

Ron stopped twitching and snored;

But he was slapped in the face by Dis,

"Pah! Pah!"

Poor Ron, he woke up in pain.

"Master, this is..." Ron had obviously forgotten something, or perhaps, his memory had long been attracted by copper coins, and he was so confused that he felt a bit like a dream, or like he was drunk.
