Genshin Impact: Great, you guys still remember

Zhong Li is one of the oldest demon gods on this continent, and also one of the most powerful demon gods.

This involves many factors, talent being one of them.

She was born on a meteorite, but her true form is half dragon and half unicorn. While she controls rocks, she also has some knowledge of the power of laws. The combination of the two forms the currency that circulates on the continent.

The authority gave her supernatural powers, but also gave her a corresponding personality.

Patience, steadiness, integrity, etc., and the most striking point among them is rationality.

Zhong Li was extremely rational, and He Li had seen that when he first met her. The first thing he said was "from the perspective of universal rationality".

She always looks at things from an extremely objective perspective and never says "I think".

He Li had only heard it two or three times in all the time he had known her.

But rationality does not mean no emotion. On the contrary, thousands of years have allowed her to see almost all kinds of things in the world. Even the hardest and sharpest stones will become smooth.

If she wanted to, it would be easy to make the other person smile with just a few words.

She also has things she likes, likes drinking tea, likes strange-shaped stones, likes antiques, but her favorite thing is the thing that is farthest from "rationality" - wine.

Perhaps only when the spicy wine enters the throat and the feeling of tipsiness surges into the heart,

She is not the most powerful demon god in the whole continent, not the emperor with thousands of subjects and dozens of immortals, not Morax who must remain rational.

She is herself, Zhong Li.

As for her friends, she attached great importance to them. He Li had seen her panic in one of the few moments when she was still sick in bed.

The death of her friends will continue to wear her down like a file, so although she is so rational and seemingly inhuman, she has quite unexpected weaknesses.

This weakness now makes her a little confused.

It was still that day, a thousand years ago. When she saw the ruins of Guiliji and the gun stuck upside down on the ground, her unique premonition suddenly burst out from her heart.

Until that premonition reached her mind, waiting for her to find out.

She only saw a blank space.

The confusion almost made her give up her rationality.

At that time, he stepped into the East China Sea with the Homa Staff in hand. Countless meteorites fell from the sky and almost caused a tsunami again.

"Morax! You're crazy—"

"It was you who destroyed Guiliji and killed him?"

"It was the snake's idea to cause the flood. And, him? Who is he? I didn't kill anyone,"

"Who is he...? Heh,"

"I...are you really crazy? Aren't you afraid that the filth after my death will flow along the ocean currents and pollute the entire ocean?"

Only after these words came out did the several stars summoned by Zhong Li stop in the air.

"filthy..."

She subconsciously looked at the Homa Staff in her hand. In the center of the spear head, there was a red gem, which was glowing faintly.

Looking at the pearl, she was slightly stunned.

After a while, she suddenly put away her gun and turned around.

"call--"

Osel, who was hiding in the tsunami, wiped his sweat subconsciously.

But it’s not over yet—

"It's filthy, but you destroyed my Guiliji and killed my comrades. Your crimes are so heinous that they are hard to escape. Even if I use this island to suppress you, it will not be enough to relieve your hatred."

Zhong Li said calmly with his back turned, and several stars fell from the sky at the same time.

"Morax, you! I admit that I was indeed responsible for the tsunami, but I don't know your whore at all. You are clearly...!"

Before Osel could finish his words of shock and anger, several of his waving tentacles were shot down first. As the stars continued to fall, he was completely sealed under the sea.

"There's more than one,"

She muttered, gripping the handle of the gun.

Losing rationality does not mean losing reason. In fact, Zhong Li is still methodical when he is impulsive.

When Liyue Harbor was first built, she suddenly announced the establishment of a special institution - the Hall of Rebirth.

She stored the divine weapons of the earthly gods in the Hall of Rebirth and taught them a method called the "Rebirth Mantra".

Chanting the difficult spell, they did not understand how the Emperor could have created something so unlike this place.

But when I saw the Homa staff held by the hall master glowing faintly under the spell, and all the filth under the light was purified,

They all understood the significance of the Emperor creating the Hall of Rebirth.

When Zhong Li looked at them, he was also concise and to the point:

“Inherit the tools of our ancestors and shoulder their responsibilities.”

Out of their sight, Zhong Li swallowed the last words:

"To avenge our ancestors."

Then came the "Hundred Years of Ploughing" which was the most glorious battle in Liyue's history. Demons of all sizes either fell or fled, and the land of Liyue was completely unified.

After completely eradicating the demon god related to the tragedy, Zhong Li originally thought that he could completely let go of that emotion.

But strangely, she became even more confused. The blankness kept lingering in her mind and could not be dispelled.

She is not a hypocritical person. No matter how painful something is, it will eventually disappear with the passage of time.

But that blank space would suddenly occupy her every time she quietly watched the gathering of the immortals, every time she picked up a teacup, every time she walked in the dust of Liyue Harbor, almost every moment in the dust of the world.

It will be dull and shallow, and she will gradually get used to it.

She often wondered,

This might be the last mark left by that person, so that she would not wear out the insurance policy.

If you don't forget, it won't wear out.

...

But... there is one more thing, which actually makes her a little distressed.

It's not disgust, nor rejection, it's just a normal reaction from someone who has never been exposed to this kind of thing.

I say distressed, but in fact, it is more appropriate to say helpless.

Haha, this is really weird, what else could make Zhong Li, who is nearly seven thousand years old, be at a loss like a little girl?

...

"Sister Zhong Li, haven't you arrived yet?"

The voice beside her finally brought her back to her senses.

He Li looked at her doubtfully.

What's wrong with Sister Zhong Li? In the past, when she went to have a drink with him, she would just find a hillside to start.

Why are you taking so many turns today and still not stopping? Could it be that we haven’t seen each other for a thousand years and we are no longer familiar with each other?

No way.

"Yeah,"

Zhong Li smiled apologetically.

A trace of panic flashed across his calm pupils.

What's going on today? Who is making such a big scene? Several teahouses I used to go to now have operas and storytellers in front of their doors...

if...

"Could it be..."

He Li looked at her and suddenly narrowed his eyes.

"What's the matter?"

Zhong Li's expression remained calm, but his heartbeat inexplicably quickened.

Could it be that he has already...

"Are you embarrassed to tell me that you don't have any money?"

He suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile.

"Ahem, you don't have to worry about the bill, just send it to the Hall of the Dead."

Zhong Li coughed.

"That's good. I thought we had grown estranged after not seeing each other for so many years and that you no longer recognized me as your brother."

He patted his chest as if he was relieved and said with a smile.

This time Zhong Li's rebuttal was particularly quick. She stopped and turned to look at He Li:

"how is this possible?"

"That's good, that's good,"

Seeing this, He Li's smile deepened. He waved his hand:

"In that case, you don't need to prepare any special treats. Just go to the place we went to two days ago and have a few drinks."

"this..."

Inexplicably, Zhong Li hesitated.

If I'm not mistaken, the biggest stage of this celebration is right in front of the Three Bowls Hill.

"What's wrong? Can't you?"

He Li asked back.

"If you want to, go ahead,"

Zhong Li thought about it, and finally sighed, smiled bitterly, and nodded in agreement.

...

"It's so lively,"

He Li looked at the stage in front of him, and sighed with relief in his eyes,

He looked at Zhong Li beside him:

"Sister Zhongli, is this the image that Yingda described of me in Liyue Harbor now?"

"Only part of it,"

Zhong Li's eyes flickered, never staying on the stage, and he spoke absentmindedly.

At this moment, He Li saw the wooden sign that Qianyan Army had thoughtfully erected on the side.

"Oh, there's a program, let me see."

He walked forward and read the words on it:

"'The Legend of the World'? Not bad, not bad. 'The Story of Returning to...Glass', huh?"

Return...Glass? The blind student discovered the bright spot,

"Wait a minute, Sister Zhong Li, the words on this are written wrong,"

He Li pulled Zhong Li beside him with doubt.

“Ahem, I guess so. Maybe it means returning to Liyue?”

For some reason, Zhong Li felt a little guilty.

Looking down, he saw the third track.

"Emperor's Farewell? What does that mean?"

He was even more confused.

At this moment, Yun Jin's graceful and melodious voice suddenly came from the stage.

"Emperor - in this war, if I cannot see you again, please do not stay and grieve over it, but continue to remove obstacles and save the people. You and I are of the same mind, and I do not want to leave, but if I stay by your side, will it not implicate the Emperor in killing the enemy? I only wish to take care of the centralized affairs so that you have no worries and stand in front of the slope waiting for your wife to return."

...

I'm looking for a bean bag. It seems like something extraordinary flashed by.

"Wait, what?"

He suddenly looked at the people around him in surprise.
