Seeker of Teyvat

Sending Arataki Ito and Kuki Shinobi away,

Ying and Paimon also went back to their rooms to rest.

As soon as Wang Dao came to the kitchen, he helped Xiang Ling tidy up.

Finally, I hugged Xiangling and rested beautifully all night.

Early the next morning, Wang Daoyi got up and went to the Hall of Purity.

He wanted to share this harvest with Zhongli.

All the way to the Hall of Purity,

However, the insignificant Lord informed him that Mr. Zhongli had left early.

Helpless, Wang Daoyi started looking for Zhongli again.

Unfortunately, Wang Daoyi could not find Zhongli after searching several places where Zhongli often went.

"Think about it carefully, at this time, and with the sudden arrival of Yidou and Jiuqin Ren in Liyue, could it be?"

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Wang Daoyi seemed to know where Zhongli was.

Leaving Liyue Port, it turned into a golden light and flew towards the destination guessed in its heart.

-

Dihuazhou·Wangshu Inn

"It may be risky to go here, but you insist on going?" A young man in rich clothes stood on the roof of Wangshu Inn with his hands behind his back, seeming to be admiring the magnificent scenery of Dihuazhou.

Behind him, a young man in Tsing Yi knelt on one knee, seemingly begging for something.

These two people were none other than Zhongli and the protector Yaksha Mandrill.

"I have been guarding this place for more than a hundred years and have never left it without permission. However, regarding the matter of Wuming Yaksha, I sincerely ask the Emperor for your permission."

Mandrill lowered his head, his words full of nostalgia for his relatives and friends.

Zhongli turned around, glanced at Mandrill who was kneeling on one knee, and sighed slightly in his heart.

Since the end of the Demon God War, Liyue has been able to live and work in peace and contentment, and this happiness is because Mandrill is cleaning up the resentment of the Demon God in the wilderness.

Mandrill has great merits. Although he doesn't think so, no one can deny it.

"Forget it, go ahead and be careful." Zhongli finally agreed.

Mandrill's eyes lit up slightly, which seemed to be joy, or maybe relaxation.

"Thank you, Emperor."

"No need to thank me, you are free and should not be restricted by me." Zhongli slowly shook his head.

Mandrill: "If it weren't for the emperor, Jin Peng would have died long ago. The emperor's kindness will never be forgotten by Mandrill even if he dies."

"There is no kindness worth guarding for a thousand years, Mandrill, please rest more." Zhongli's eyes were filled with vicissitudes of life, as if he had remembered something, and he smiled slightly, "Look at me, I have rested too."

Mandrill remained silent and did not speak.

He did not tell Zhongli what he thought. It was precisely because the emperor was resting that he, as a follower of the emperor, needed to work harder to protect this land.

Neither of them spoke, they just looked at each other silently, as if everything was in silence.

"ruthless~"

Suddenly, Feng Ying, who had been hiding aside in fear of Zhong Li's power, suddenly raised his head and let out a clear whistle.

"Huh?" Mandrill turned around and looked.

Zhongli said calmly: "Ha, it seems that Dao Yi is here, and this little bird can feel his breath."

The relationship between Feng Ying and Wang Daoyi is still relatively close. As long as Wang Daoyi does not deliberately hide his aura, Feng Ying can sense Wang Daoyi's existence.

This range has become larger and larger as the Wind Eagle becomes stronger and stronger.

next moment,

A golden light appeared from the distant skyline.

In a few breaths, he appeared on the roof of the building.

"Emperor, Great Sage Mandrill, good morning." Wang Daoyi stretched out his hand and took out a few raspberries, "I just picked the raspberries in the morning rain and dew. Would you like some?"

He didn't use the ley line channel, but went to pick some raspberries.

After all, when you come to visit someone, you have to bring some gifts.

Looking at the raspberries in Wang Daoyi's hand, Mandrill shook his head. He was not in the mood to eat right now.

Zhongli, on the other hand, reached out and took a few from Wang Daoyi's hand, put them into his mouth, and tasted a little: "Well, there is not much sourness anymore, and the sweet taste has a slight aftertaste, which is good."

After tasting the raspberries, Zhongli looked at Wang Daoyi: "It seems that your recent harvest has been good. I can hardly see through you anymore."

I almost can’t see through it, but I can still see through it now.

Wang Dao curled his lips and then smiled: "Hey, the harvest is good, but there are some things I want to ask you."

Mandrill saw the two of them talking and laughing, and he didn't know why he felt sour in his heart, but it passed quickly: "Emperor, I will leave first."

Zhongli looked at Mandrill and nodded slightly.

After receiving Zhongli's permission, Mandrill turned into a blue light and disappeared.

The wind eagle beside him shook his head for a while, and instead of chasing the mandrill, he went to the tree on the side and squatted down. A pair of eagle eyes were still staring at Wang Daoyi, showing a little admiration.

After Mandrill left.

Wang Daoyi then spoke: "Emperor, I met Yi at Dao's wife's Yuanxia Palace."

"Don't say this name, use another name instead." Zhongli suddenly interrupted.

"?" Wang Daoyi was a little confused, and then he immediately realized that maybe the name Istaru really shouldn't be called casually.

Maybe there are some beings staring at this name.

Just like the priests of Yuanxia Palace, Wang Daoyi was reminded many times not to call the Great God of Eternal Life by his name.

"I understand. In Yuanxia Palace, I met the Shadow of Time and obtained something. I want to ask you about it."

Wang Daoyi immediately changed his words.

After hearing this, Zhong Li shook his head slightly: "Because of the previous contract, I can't even tell you this information about [higher-level power]."

With a flash of understanding in his eyes, Wang Daoyi nodded slightly: "Is that so? I understand."

Zhongli couldn't tell him, which meant that Zhongli knew something.

Likewise, it also means that there must be more important secrets about Istaru.

Zhongli may have signed many contracts, but due to the contract, he could not tell him about Kong.

But now, also limited to the contract, he could not give Wang Daoyi any more information.

Seeing Wang Daoyi's look of understanding, Zhongli's eyes flashed with appreciation, and then he continued: "I can only tell you, [Time is an uncontrollable force, and those who fool time will be fooled by time." !]."

Listening to Zhongli's words, Wang Daoyi thought carefully.

The first half of the sentence, "Time is not under control", may mean that time cannot be transferred by personal will. Perhaps the past time administration can go back in time within a certain range, but there must be a price.

If the ruler of time can use the power of time at no cost, then he can completely rewind the entire time of Teyvat and avoid all tragedies and misfortunes.

The fact that this kind of time retrospection did not happen means that the control of time by the ruler of time comes at a price.

In the second half of the sentence, "Those who fool time will be fooled by time", Wang Daoyi also had some conjectures in his heart, but he could not find a specific example.
