Chapter 186 "Things Before the Sun and Moon"

"Haha, he must be able to execute the death sentence on me." Liusu said with a smile.

Paimon scratched his head and said, "Well, it seems to make sense."

"Then, what is the book talking about?" Paimon asked curiously.

Liusu looked at Paimon with a meaningful look and said, "Paimon, do you want to listen too? You are very weak. It would be bad if the god of Sky Island discovers you."

Paimon nodded quickly and said: "Of course I want to see it, Ying, you want to see it too, right?"

"Well, I'm curious too, but Sky Island is not something I can deal with now." Ying said with some hesitation.

"Then work hard to become stronger. I can still protect you in a small place like the Teyvat continent." Liusu replied nonchalantly.

Ying nodded fiercely and said: "Yes!"

Liusu read: "[The Year of Doves Carrying Branches]"

"The Eternal Throne in Heaven arrives, and the world is made new. Then the True King, the Original One, begins to wage war against the masters of the old world, the seven terrible kings. The terrible kings are dragons."

"The First One created His own luminous shadows. And the number of shadows is four."

"Sure enough, the throne on Sky Island is an outsider. Are they killing people who know about it to cover up something?" After listening to Liusu's words, Paimon touched his chin and said.

"I think it is to cover up the fact that he is an outsider. It seems that dragon lizards and other creatures are the indigenous people of Teyvat continent, and the most powerful ones are those dragons."

"What are the four glowing shadows?" Ying asked curiously.

"I think they should be the four gods who control life, death, time, and space respectively." Liusu guessed.

Liusu continued to read according to the writing: "[Fanes, or the original one]"

"The original one may be Phanes. It has wings and wears a crown. It is born from an egg. It is difficult to distinguish between male and female. But if the world is to be created, the egg shell must be broken. Phanes - the original The one who used eggshells to isolate the [universe] and the [microcosm of the world].”

"It turns out that the original one was named Fanes. From the description, he didn't look like a human being. Could it be that he was a monster with wings?" Ying thought.

"I can't see anything here, so I'll keep looking down."

"[More than forty years after holding the branch]"

"Forty winters buried the fire, and forty summers boiled the sea. All seven kings were defeated, and all seven kingdoms bowed to heaven. The original king began the creation of heaven and earth. For [us]— —Its most pitiful people will appear on this land again."

"[More than four hundred years of holding branches]"

"Mountains and rivers were created, and seas and oceans received rebels and disobedients. The original One and the Shadow created birds, beasts, and fish. Together they created flowers, grass, and trees. Finally, they created The number of our ancestors is unknown.

From this time on, our ancestors made a covenant with the Original One. The chronology has also changed. "

"Well, this is the birth of man. This means that there was no man before Teyvat. It was the original one who created man." Paimon said, touching his chin.

"[The year when the box boat opened its doors]

The Original One has a divine plan for man. As long as people are happy, it will rejoice.

[The year after the opening of the box boat]

People work hard and reap the first harvest. People dug and harvested precious gold for the first time. People gathered and wrote poetry for the first time.

【The Year of Carnival】

If there is famine, food and rain will fall from the sky. If there is barrenness, the earth will produce mineral deposits. If there is melancholy spreading, Heaven will respond with a voice.

The only forbidden thing is to lose to temptation. But the avenues of temptation have been blocked.

With the help of the original, human ancestors lived a life of great material and spiritual abundance. People were originally forbidden to be attracted by temptation, and people believed that nothing could tempt them. "

Paimon continued: "It sounds like the original one is equivalent to the God of Creation. It created so many things."

Liusu continued: "[Year of the Burial Fire]

The arrival of the second throne in heaven is like the resumption of the great war at the beginning of creation. That day, the sky collapsed and the earth collapsed. The ancestors of our people in the Abyss, and the land they have lived in for generations, fell here.

The dark ages began.

With the arrival of the second batch of alien races, the original and the shadows and the second generation of gods started a second war. At the same time, the ancestors of the Haiyuan people also sank under the sea abyss together with this land, and began to live without seeing the sun and moon. "

Paimon touched his chin and analyzed: "These Haiyuan people should be the ancestors of everyone on Haiji Island today, right?"

Ying nodded and said: "It should be, but I can't be sure because it took too long."

"Yes, this is something that dates back to before the Demon God War. At that time, the Seven Gods didn't exist yet." Paimon nodded.

Liusu said: "Whether they are or not, it has no impact on us. We are just reading a history book, even though this book is banned."

Paimon: "."

fluorescent:"."

You are still reading a forbidden book, and you are asking us to read it together. We don’t have the strength like you. If you are caught by the law of heaven, it will be the end of the world.

Liusu looked at the silent Paimon and Ying and continued to read: "[The First Year of Darkness]

The people of the seven great kings were accepted by the sea, and the dragon descendants of the deep sea once ruled here. Our ancestors fought against them.

The ancestors used a thousand lights to drive them into the shadows, and they hunted humans in the shadows. There is only darkness here, so everywhere is their hunting ground.

The prayers of the people became lamentations, and the original One and the other three luminous shadows could not hear them. "

"The only one who has not abandoned us is the Ruler of Time. She is the hour, the hour, the measure of a thousand winds and the sun and the moon. She is all times of joy, all times of anger, She is the moment of all longing, of all delirium.

We call her [Cairos], or [the leader and ruler of the unchanging world]. We dare not speak out about the real secret name, so we write it backwards here. [Lutasyi]——I only mention it once. "

"Istaru!" Paimon suddenly exclaimed.

Ying asked doubtfully: "What's wrong, Paimon?"

"Nothing, nothing." Pamon quickly waved his hand and replied.

"Really? I always feel that you are suspicious. Could it be that you know this ruler of time named Istaru?" Ying looked at Paimon suspiciously and said.

Paimon's eyes were somewhat evasive and he said, "Ah haha, how is that possible? This god has been away from us for so long, and I was born only a short time ago."

"Then what are you yelling about? I thought you knew him." Ying glanced at Paimon and said.

Paimon: "."

Liusu glanced at Paimon and continued to read: "[Year of Blindness]

【The year of Mingming, or the first year of the sun and moon】

[The second year of the sun and moon]

The ancestors tried to find their way back. The war on the surface should be over.

But the Original One, the First Throne, issued the ban. The ancestors could not find their way home.

If this is the case, then the original one should have defeated the second one.

Arak was imprisoned by the Sons of the Sun. "

"[Tree Metaphor]

The king's gardener fell in love with the tree spirit in the royal garden. But the king wanted to build new carved beams for the pavilion, so he needed to cut down the most spiritual tree. The King is the incarnation of the Original One, so the gardener cannot disobey the King of Kings, but can only pray to the King's priests. The priest is the incarnation of the eternal god.

The priest took pity on the gardener and said, "Go and break off the branches of the spiritual tree." The gardener then went to break off the branches, and then obeyed the king's order and cut down the spiritual tree.

Then the priest said, go ahead and plant the branches of the spiritual tree. The gardener said that it takes five hundred years for the spiritual tree to grow. The priest said that one thought can end a thousand eons. So the gardener planted branches in his backyard. As a result, in an instant, the twigs grew into a new tree, and the new tree was actually the continuation of the former tree spirit.

Because the God of that moment can bring the "this moment" of the "seed" to the past and the future. "

"I've finished reading, do you have any thoughts?" Liusu closed the book and said to the two of them.

"The latter part is a bit unclear. If the original one defeated the first one, why is there a second throne?" Ying asked confused.

Paimeng nodded and agreed: "Yes, yes, and these are all described in fairy tales. With our current knowledge and experience, we have no idea what is written in the deeper layers here. Why don't you, Liusu, explain it to me?" "

Liusu moistened his throat and said, "I won't go into the previous words. The literal meaning has no deeper meaning. I only have a partial understanding of these, so I will analyze it. Just listen and don't take it seriously. "

"Yeah." Paimon and Ying nodded at the same time.

Liusu opened his mouth and analyzed: "From the section of the Dark First Year recorded in the book, one thing can be determined, that is, the first throne and the others except Istaru did not hear their request. I can guess here that the original one And its three shadows may be involved in some kind of incident, of course, it may also be that they are not prepared to care about the life and death of these Haiyuan people."

"I can understand that the original one didn't care about the life or death of the Haiyuan people, but what do you mean when you said they were caught in some kind of incident?" Ying asked confused.

"Our location is on the continent of Teyvat." Liusu said.

Paimon asked doubtfully: "Yeah, what's the problem?"

"Why not the world of Teyvat, or the planet of Teyvat?" Liusu said with a smile.

"I understand, there are other continents besides the continent of Teyvat, Liusu, is that what you mean?" Ying's eyes lit up and he said to Liusu.

"That's right, why is the Teyvat continent called the Teyvat continent? To use a local saying, the Teyvat continent is just a continental plate, and the places outside the Teyvat continent are unknown."

Liusu nodded and said: "If my guess is correct, the areas outside Teyvat are polluted by something, so they are not suitable for people to live, and the things there may be monsters."

"You mean the Honkai Impact has eroded this world?" Ying asked.

"I'm not sure if it's an abyss, but it can be inferred that these pollutions should have some connection with the so-called Honkai."

Paimon scratched his head and said, "Is that so?"

Liusu suddenly showed a meaningful smile to Ying and said, "Ying, you should know the other meaning of Teyvat, right?"

Ying muttered for a while and suddenly exclaimed: "Teyvat, Teyvat, Teyvat, which translates to Ark!"

"Yes, the literal translation of another language you know means Ark. Isn't it a coincidence?"

Ying was shocked and said: "You mean, the Teyvat continent is the only remaining ark in this world? It is also the last refuge of mankind?"

"It's pretty much what you think. That one seems to want to save this continent, because the development of Teyvat will bring about some kind of terrifying thing. In the end, what that one wants is in the eternity without beginning or end. Humanity will live a peaceful and dreamless life.”

"So with the Seven Gods and Sky Island, it hopes that people can live their lives quietly under its arrangement."

"Of course, its will is not absolute. There are always places where the gods cannot see. In these places where the gods cannot see, there are people who want to dream secretly, and unknown dreams often lead to new crises. "

Ying asked: "Are you talking about Dainsreib and the Abyss?"

Liusu nodded and said: "It can be understood that these people who secretly dream include but are not limited to people who gain power from outside the world."

"What about you, Liusu?" Paimon asked Liusu.

Liusu smiled and asked: "I can be awake, why do I have to dream?"

Paimon scratched his head and said, "That's right."

After listening to Paimon and Liusu's words, Ying fell into deep thought.

"Hahaha, don't be so serious. This is all my guess. What if the facts are completely opposite to what I said?" Liusu said with a smile.

"It's possible that the original one was to protect this world, and maybe my existence and arrival was to destroy this world."

"Liu Su wouldn't do this, right?" Paimon said to Liu Su seriously.

Liusu sighed and said, "Who knows? After all, I am a more terrifying existence than the abyss."

Paimon: "."

fluorescent:"."

"Okay, that's the end of the chat. Is there anything else you need my help with? If not, I'm going to take a walk around Yuanxia Palace."

Ying thought for a while, shook her head and said, "No more."

Paimon suddenly said: "Lisu, what are you doing in Yuanxia Palace? Is there anything that makes you curious?"

"I think this Great Sun Yuyu is very good. I'll think about how to move it up." Liusu touched his chin and thought.

Paimon said with a shocked look on his face: "Hey, don't use this. There is sun outside. Why are you moving this up?"

"Although what you said makes sense, I still plan to give it a try." After saying that, Tassel disappeared.

After Liusu's figure disappeared in front of Ying and Paimon, he appeared on the cliff of a floating island in Yuanxia Palace.

"Well, Yuanxia Palace? I don't know what's down there. Let's throw a branch to explore the way." After saying that, she took out a golden branch from the space and threw it into the bottomless void.

"That's enough. Let's see if there is any place suitable for fishing in Yuanxia Palace. Not to mention the scenery here is still okay." After saying that, Liusu's figure disappeared.

At the same time, Ying and Paimon were still in the same place.

"Let's collect the blood branch corals first, and then continue with the next trial." Paimon said to Ying while looking at the familiar sky.

"Yes." Ying nodded and went to collect the blood branch corals from the deep sea dragon lizard.

"Well, what do you think about what Ying Liusu said?" Paimeng asked after thinking for a while.

"I don't have any ideas. What she said was just a guess. No one can predict the outcome until the last moment." Ying shook her head.

"I mean, if Liusu said that she was the one who destroyed Teyvat, what would you do?" Paimon asked.

Ying thought carefully and said, "Well, I will escape from Teyvat and find a new place."

"Wow, haven't you ever thought of stopping her?" Pamon asked in surprise.

Ying glanced at Paimon and said, "Are you going to stop him? He is so powerful. If he really plans to destroy the continent of Teyvat, how can I stop him with my strength? Will I be cannon fodder?"

Paimon: "."

After being told this, Paimon felt that what she said made sense, and his face suddenly fell.

Looking at Paimon with a slumped face, Ying thought for a while and comforted: "Let's not talk about other things, just look at her appearance, is she someone who has such thoughts? So I think it is possible for Tassel to destroy the world. Even less likely than the abyss to overthrow the throne.”

"You, what you said makes sense." Paimon said with a troubled face.

"You don't have to think so much. Tassel is so strong. If she really has thoughts, we can't resist. Since she has good intentions towards us, we shouldn't make assumptions about others. This is impolite."

"The definitions of good people and bad people are not so absolute. For example, there is a person who is very nice to you. She can satisfy you whatever you want, but she is indeed an evil devil in the eyes of others. What would you think? ?”

Paimon thought for a moment and said, "Well, this, this, I will still stand by her side."

After collecting the blood branch corals, Ying said to Paimon: "So, if a bad person keeps pretending to be a good person until his death, then he is a good person. Don't look at other people's evaluations, but look at your own evaluation of her. You know ?"

"No, Ying, why do you know this and give me so many metaphors? You never spoke before." Paimeng thought about Ying's words and felt that they made sense. She also discovered a blind spot. .

Ying smiled and replied: "Of course I know this from Liusu. Anyone who knows this is not too bad. If Liusu is a villain, he is also a villain with ideals and aspirations. This kind of villain is not annoying. , except Sora.”

"That's what I said, but why exclude your blood brother?" Paimon was puzzled after hearing Ying's words.

Ying said with reason: "Because he is not good to me, he is free and easy in the Abyss Cult alone, and he didn't take me with him when so many things happened in Kanreya before. He was caught by the maintainer of heaven when he came out, and then he became what he is now in a daze, so I hate him."

Paimon nodded in agreement and said: "Well, what you said makes sense. Such a brother is really incompetent. It's a pity that you looked for him so much before. If possible, give him a sword next time."

"Really? I think so too. I will give him a sword next time we meet, and let him secretly be a villain without me." Ying said excitedly.

"Hey, the topic is wrong, why is it a villain without you?" Paimon complained helplessly.

"Haha, actually I think it's okay to be a decent or a villain. It mainly depends on what I want to do, but now I just want to be an ordinary traveler."

"Let's go, let's go to Luzi to report, and then go back to rest."
