Chapter 121 New Street Drifter in Liyue Harbor

"Zhongli, no, I still like to call you Morax, when there is no one else."

The Dragon King Ruota turned into Kunjun and walked towards Zhongli and said, "I have not forgotten the eye-opening matter."

Zhongli responded calmly, "It's just a small favor, don't worry about it."

"Your eyes are intact, so you naturally don't know the blind dragon's pursuit of sunlight. But I will never forget that Morax gave the Dragon King Ruota two eyes."

"Likewise, I will always remember your kindness in giving me a new life, Liusu."

"There is no need to say these now, and the credit this time goes to Liusu."

"Haha, that's right, these are the two luckiest things in my dragon life, it feels so good to be alive again." Kunjun said with a smile.

Zhongli: "."

"How about going out for a walk?" Zhongli suggested after a moment of silence.

"Okay, but isn't the most urgent task now to rescue the miners outside?"

"After going out, I will solve what you did."

"Haha, you are right, let's go."

After that, Zhongli and Kunjun left.

"I didn't expect that the matter would be resolved like this, but I always feel that something else has happened." Paimon said, scratching his head as he watched Zhongli and Kunjun leave.

Ying's eyes flashed. Was everything he had done before against the Ruotu Dragon King in Liyue a dream? No, this dream was too real. Even the moves and fighting methods learned in the dream could be skillfully performed by himself. So, that was not a dream, but something that really happened, just like entering the world of "Genshin Impact", but why did Paimon forget it, but he still remembered it.

"Liusu, you are really amazing. You solved it all." Wendy praised.

Liusu said with a fierce face: "Keep a low profile, it's just a piece of cake."

Wendy: "."

"Liusu."

Liusu interrupted Ying's doubts and said: "Let's talk about this later, let's go out first."

Ying: "."

"Then let's go out too. I wonder if Lao Dai has found the message we left and come here." Paimon suggested to everyone.

At this time, a hotel in Mond.

Keqing rubbed her aching head, got up from the bed, opened the Liyue Skynet, and found that only one day had passed.

"Is this a dream? Why is it so real? No, this is not a dream. Oh, the sword technique given by the master."

After saying this, Keqing began to urge Qingluan in the way she remembered. Sure enough, the Qingluan Sword stood upright and floated around her just like in the dream.

"Ganyu, Ganyu." Keqing hurriedly pushed Ganyu who was sleeping next to her.

"What's wrong, Keqing."

Ganyu rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at Keqing a little cutely.

Keqing asked, "Ganyu, did you encounter anything strange?"

"No, I just felt a little headache after waking up, and I didn't seem to dream last night, nor did I enter the memory of "Genshin Impact." Ganyu said while rubbing her aching head.

Keqing understood a little. She guessed that it was probably Liusu who deleted all the memories of other people about the past two hundred days. Although the memories were deleted, the memory of the body obtained from the battle with the Ruotu Dragon King did not disappear.

"Keqing, do you know what happened?" Ganyu asked.

"No, I also feel something is wrong. Let's ask Master when we go back."

Keqing finally decided to conceal this matter. After all, in the memory of those hundreds of days, only her daily memory will not be cleared.

"That's the only way. Let's go back and ask, but where are we going today?"

"Let's take a look at the scenery of Mondstadt."

Ganyu smiled and replied: "Well, I'll listen to you."

"Hey, why did you teleport us here? Let's go back and see those workers."

After leaving the secret realm, everyone appeared under the ancient tree in front of the mine.

When they arrived at the entrance of the mine, they found that Lao Dai was standing there looking for something.

Old Dai saw everyone coming and said, "So you are here! My brothers and I saw the clues you left and followed you all the way."

"On the way, we found Xiao Mao who fainted in the tent in the camp ahead and have settled him down. Unfortunately, we haven't found the other three brothers yet..."

"Xiao Kun, what's wrong with you?"

Old Dai saw that Kun Jun was completely different from before, with a vague white smoke on his body. This sudden change made Old Dai stunned.

Kunjun smiled and replied, "It's just a small matter, don't worry about it. If you want to find those workers, they are in the cave next to them."

"Mountain, cave? What happened to them?"

Zhongli explained, "They spent a lot of effort, but their lives are not in danger, don't worry."

Hearing Zhongli say this, Lao Dai felt relieved and thanked him, "Okay, okay, thank you all! I have to go see them quickly."

"Are you going to take them back to Liyue Harbor later?" Kunjun

"Can I come with you?"

Lao Dai quickly agreed, "No problem! You are all our brothers' saviors, and I will definitely meet any requests. Let me go and see their situation first, and then come to thank you all."

"Xiao Kun...ah, no, no, I should call you Dragon King! Are you going back to Liyue Harbor too?"

"Yes, but it's not me that Lao Dai is asking to take away, it's this body." Kunjun replied.

"After I leave, let the owner of this body go back to Liyue with the foreman. Kunjun is the descendant of a famous craftsman, and he will surely be famous in the future. Such a person must not make mistakes, but in this case, I don't think I can use the name Kunjun anymore. I was used to calling him before, hahaha." Kunjun said with a smile.

"Then think of another one." Liusu said.

"Speaking of which, I don't know what to name."

Liusu said tentatively: "How about calling you Feituo?"

Zhongli looked at Kunjun and nodded: "In terms of universal rationality, Feituo does suit you."

Kunjun: "."

Zhongli's mouth twitched when he heard Liusu's words. You are still as talkative as ever.

Kunjun was silent for a while and said: "Let's discuss this matter later."

"You are still the same, you prefer blacksmiths." Zhongli said.

"Swords have no eyes, but craftsmen have feelings. Isn't the word human feelings what humans are most proud of?"

"Ruo Tuo, I am no longer the God of Rock." Zhongli reminded.

Kunjun replied: "I know this. Didn't Liusu say before that you gave up your status as the God of Rock in order to retire?"

Zhongli: "."

"Now I am just an ordinary Liyue person."

"Hahaha, you should rest too, but is Liyue possible without the God of Rock?"

"If there are no gods in the world, this is the kingdom of humans. I was once the god of humans, and I should witness the rise and fall of humans."

"Any life will be worn out and deteriorated over the years. You are the strongest soul among us, but you are also worn out by it..."

"Although the current golden tree can suppress this kind of wear and tear, it is impossible to completely eliminate it, but it doesn't matter. Cause and effect are determined by heaven. If our mission has come to an end, we should bravely embark on the road of leaving."

"I originally thought that you were immortal and destined to be lonely, but I didn't expect that you now have a destined person who can walk with you." After saying this, Ruota looked at Ying, Liusu, Wendy, and Nashida behind him.

"You are slightly better in terms of lifespan. The lifespan of elemental creatures may be the longest on this continent."

Kunjun smiled and said, "That's not true. I feel that your life is also increasing, and the degree of wear and tear is decreasing. I believe you can go further now."

"Just kidding. It's a happy thing to meet old friends, and now you can do the same as me." Zhongli replied.

"Did you hesitate in the Layered Abyss before?" Kunjun asked.

"Rocks can have hearts, so I naturally do. But I am the God of Contracts and the God of the people of Liyue."

After listening to Zhongli's words, Kunjun sighed, "You chose righteousness, but did not abandon benevolence. So you didn't kill me, I was sealed voluntarily."

"The earth dragon turned over and shook the world. With your ability, even if I was in my prime, it would be difficult for me to fight alone, let alone seal it."

Kunjun: "."

You were not like this when you beat me in the secret realm before. I suspect you are implying me.

"That's why I was born. After all, I am also an elder who watched the birth of Liyue Harbor. Even if it is no longer the same as before, I must implement the agreement in my own way."

"Does the contract still count?" Zhongli suddenly said.

Kunjun was stunned and said, "Of course."

"I am no longer the God of Contract, so the contract with the God of Contract has been invalidated. Now you can live freely."

Kunjun understood what Zhongli meant and said, "Thank you, Morax."

Zhongli said lightly: "Change your identity and live in Liyue. Liyue is more prosperous than ever before."

"Is it because of her?" Kunjun asked.

"That's right."

"Well, it's really good to be able to live soberly again like this."

After Kunjun finished speaking, a yellow-brown figure separated from his body and slowly formed a man as tall as Zhongli.

"Welcome back, Ruotu." Zhongli said, looking at the figure in front of him.

"Haha, Morax, I haven't been so happy for a long time." Ruotu raised his head and laughed.

"Wow!!" Paimon looked at Kunjun who suddenly fell to the ground and the solid Ruotu Dragon King in surprise.

"The one who fell down now is the real Kunjun, right?" Ying looked at the Ruotu Dragon King who appeared in front of them, and whose clothing style was somewhat similar to Zhongli's.

"Yes, don't worry, he just fell asleep." Ruotu replied.

"Hey, so is it Kunjun or Ruotu Dragon King that we know?" Paimeng said puzzledly.

Zhongli replied: "We are indeed strangers to Kunjun."

Ying analyzed: "Zhongli means that since Liyue Port, we have met Ruotu Dragon King?"

"That's right, but the previous Ruotu's memory has not yet recovered, but Kunjun at that time has fallen into a deep sleep."

"So that's the case, so we won't be embarrassed. I thought Kunjun would become someone we didn't know, and it would be easy if they were all Ruotu Dragon Kings." Paimeng said excitedly.

"Ruotu, what identity do you plan to live in Liyue Port?" Zhongli asked.

Ruotu replied: "I also want to try what your life is like now."

"Isn't that a social loser who refuses to pay his debts? ! "Paimeng exclaimed when he heard Ruotu's words.

Zhongli: "."

Ruotu: "."

"Paimeng, you are the only one who can talk. She has never been smart since she was a child, so Zhongli and Ruotu, don't take her words to heart."

Ying hurriedly covered Paimeng's mouth and showed an awkward but polite smile to Zhongli and Ruotuo. Why did Paimon say anything to others?

"Now that the matter has been resolved, it's time for me to go back to fishing." Liusu said.

"By the way, you can make the skynet at Ruotuo's place by yourself. You can do it anyway, so I'll run away first."

After saying that, Liusu teleported Nasida and disappeared.

"As expected of you."

Watching Liusu leave suddenly, Zhongli was silent for a while and squeezed out a few words from his mouth.

"The God of Wisdom may be more worn out than you are, so I don't find her behavior surprising."

Ruo Tuo's words made Zhongli turn his head and look at him. What does it mean that she is more worn than me?

"Morax. You said that the golden tree was created by the God of Wisdom to store and protect memories so as to resist wear and tear. But the more memories it carries, the more intense the wear and tear it will suffer. This tree carries The memory of the entire Liyue people.”

"Oh, I can understand it, but she is the only one who can do this." Zhongli said with emotion.

"Old man, now that the matter has been resolved, it's time for us to leave." Wendy said.

Zhongli nodded and said, "Well, let's go back to Liyue first."

Ying followed Zhongli back to Liyue in a daze. It seemed that she had completed the task without doing anything along the way, especially after she had slept and she had not understood anything yet and the dungeon was cleared.

A few days later.

"I said last time that Prince Yan was walking alone in the mountains and heard a distant sound that had never been heard before."

As the people on the stage told stories, the plot slowly began to emerge.

Zhongli: "Most of the ancient rock elemental creatures living underground in Liyue are blind and have not seen the light of day for thousands of years."

"The sound was sometimes as sad as a song, and sometimes as scary as thunder. Lord Yan went around and around, and finally found a strange and strange stone in the rock formation."

Zhongli: "This is what Dragon King Ruotuo is like. In accordance with his wish, I brought him to the ground."

The storyteller continued: "Prince Yan took pity on the spirituality of this stone, so he personally carved it into a wonderfully lifelike dragon."

Zhongli: "I gave him the eyes to see things clearly and made a three-part agreement with him."

"He then used his finger as a pen to point out the dragon's eyes. After a while, there was lightning and thunder in the sky, and a real dragon appeared from the sky." After saying this, the storyteller's tone and magic became excited and exciting. atmosphere of the surrounding audience.

Zhongli: "I promised him to coexist with the people on earth, but if one day he disrupts the order, he will be sealed into darkness again."

"Since then, the dragon has always been with Prince Yan, accompanying him in battles in the north and south."

"There is a word of praise for this, it is because the gold and stone burst into pieces and stirred up dust, the mountains and rivers were opened, the dragons and eyes were helped by the help, and the rain and dew were lingering."

"Well, this matter is inconsistent with the situation at the time and is a bit exaggerated." Zhong Li said while taking a sip of tea.

"Actually, it's not that big of a difference. The finishing touch seems unimportant in other aspects, and the subsequent battle with you in the north and south is also real." Ruo Tuo said sitting next to Zhongli.

"By the way, what did Liusu come to discuss with you before?" Zhongli suddenly thought of something and asked Ruotuo.

Ruo Tuo replied: "Well, she said she also wants to retire."

"Hasn't she never held a position? Why is she thinking of retiring?" Zhongli couldn't understand this either.

"She said that having an identity in Liyue made her a little uncomfortable, and it would be better to retire in peace and contentment."

Zhongli: "."

"Did she talk about the specific retirement process?" Zhongli said after being silent for a while.

"This is true, but"

Speaking of this, Ruo Tuo showed a tangled expression.

"Since we can't talk about this matter, I won't ask." Zhong Li looked at Ruo Tuo's sudden frown, thinking that Ruo Tuo and Liusu had signed some kind of confidentiality agreement, and said with relief.

"Not really, it's just."

As Ruo Tuo spoke, Zhongli's expression became more exciting.

"As expected of you, Liusu."

After a while, Zhongli squeezed out a sentence. Ever since he met Liusu, the words "you" have been used countless times by Zhongli. I remember that Liusu used them to complain about him in the beginning.

"It just so happens that Liyue is still one step away from entering the era of human rule. Let the fairy king on the surface pass away again. Only in this way can Liyue become a real era of human rule."

What Zhongli didn't expect was that after Liusu retired, a third god would appear in Liyue. This was of course a story for another day.

"Today's tea tastes a little worse than the day before."

Zhongli said while holding the tea cup.

"I think they're pretty much the same."

Ruo Tuo picked up the tea cup and took a sip, drinking all the tea leaves together.

Zhongli: "."

He can now understand a little bit how Wendy felt when she saw Tassel drinking like water.

"Store, check out."

After finishing his tea, Zhongli waved his hand and called the shopkeeper.

"Mr. Zhongli, the total is 150,500 molas, and the tea is 500 molas. You have rewarded the storyteller with a total of 150,000 molas." The store owner took out the bill and said.

"Ruo Tuo, do you have any money?" Zhongli tortured Ruo Tuo's soul.

"No."

Ruoda shook his head and replied, in his opinion, isn't Mora easily conjured by Morax?

Zhongli covered his forehead and sighed: "I feel a little tired."

"Send the bill to Master Hu of the Purity Hall." Zhongli said to the store owner.

"Okay, Mr. Zhongli."

"Zhongli!"

Hearing the voice, Zhongli turned around and saw Hu Tao wearing the Wanmin Hall apron today, looking at him angrily.

"Master Hu, how come you have the leisure to come and listen to the story today?"

"What else is wrong? Wangsheng Hall has no business now, and you are still spending money lavishly. Not only that, you also brought a friend to join Wangsheng Hall!"

"I really believed your lies. He is indeed very knowledgeable and far-sighted, and then what? Isn't he just like you, slacking off everywhere and not doing any work every day, and Wangsheng Hall has not had a single business until now." Hu Tao gritted his teeth and looked at Zhongli.

"Now, you've added another huge bill to the Rebirth Hall. How dare you? 150,000 Mora? You gave out the reward in one afternoon. Do you know how much I have to commission???"

"Zhongli, as a guest of the Rebirth Hall, you can't just bring business to our Rebirth Hall, but you can't keep sending me bills, right? Look at what weird things you bought. I won't talk about the reward, but what's the matter with this 10,000 Mora cup of tea?"

Zhongli glanced at Ruo Tuo: "Ahem."

Ruo Tuo: "."

Ruo Tuo chose to pretend not to see it. He is now a mortal, and Hall Master Hu is talking about Zhongli, so why should he care about Ruo Tuo?

Zhongli: "."
