Genshin Impact: Quietly Investing for Six Thousand Years

The night deepened, becoming as dark as ink.

Inside the Fireplace House, in the dim living room, only a few faint lights barely illuminated the surroundings.

The children fell asleep one after another, leaning left and right, snuggling up to each other.

Chen Mo told the story softly.

As the story develops, it finally comes to an end.

He raised his head, his eyes filled with nostalgia, and looked quietly at everything in front of him, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

Once upon a time, Liu Yun and the others were like this, listening to his stories attentively, and it would take a long time before they gradually felt sleepy.

They all curled up into little balls and hid in his arms to sleep, as if only in this way could they find a sense of security.

At this time, Alechino stood up, and Chen Mo said softly: "Let the children sleep here. I believe that many years later, whenever they think back to this night, these beautiful memories will emerge in their hearts."

Alechino nodded and went upstairs.

Chen Mo turned his gaze to one side. In the dim light and shadow, Linni's childish face seemed particularly focused.

The other children had already fallen asleep, but Linny still held the fish tank tightly, concentrating on exploring the mysteries within it.

Linnet and Femini leaned quietly beside him, snoring softly.

Chen Mo urged softly, "It's getting late, go to bed quickly."

Lini raised his head suddenly, his eyes revealing great stubbornness: "How did you do it? I have never seen such a magical trick."

Chen Mo smiled slightly, as if he had anticipated Lin Ni's reaction, and said softly: "Do you want to learn?"

Linny's eyes widened and he asked in disbelief, "Are you willing to teach me?"

You know, magic is an extremely private skill.

Normally, only when a master reaches the end of his life will he pass on his lifelong skills to his disciples.

Therefore, almost no one would easily show their magic to others.

However, at this moment, facing Linnie's incredulous gaze, Chen Mo smiled and nodded.

Seeing Chen Mo agreed, Lin Ni's eyes became enthusiastic.

Alechino came down with the quilt and saw that Linnie was still awake.

"Linnie, you should rest."

Linnie saw Alecino holding the quilt, realized something, and quickly got up.

"Father, let me help you."

Alechino did not refuse and put the quilt she brought down on the sofa.

One by one, the children were covered with blankets.

The lady and Alice, who had heard the story, also lent a hand to help, and soon all the children were covered with quilts.

Alice clapped her hands and nodded with satisfaction.

The lady still looked arrogant. If the children were sick, no one would flatter her anymore. It was not out of kindness.

Linnie stretched, a look of fatigue in his eyes.

Perhaps it was because of Chen Mo's promise that the obsession in my heart was finally relieved.

In an instant, the drowsiness brought by staying up late came like a tide and quickly drowned Linny.

He yawned involuntarily, then stretched out his arms, leaned lazily on the furniture behind him, and fell asleep.

Alechino gently covered him with the last piece of quilt.

At this point, all the children in Hearth House were covered with quilts.

Chen Mo was leisurely making tea.

Staying up late is harmful to your health, so what does it have to do with me staying up all night?

Alechino came over and said, "Mr. Chen Mo, are you free at this moment?"

Chen Mo nodded, "Yes, if you want to stay up all night, I'll make you a cup."

The lady and Alice stopped walking up the stairs at the same time, turned around, and sat back down.

"Ms. Alechino, we are now on the same front. We can't hide it."

Alechino hesitated for a moment.

"Tonight, I went to see the current water goddess, Ms. Funina. Unfortunately, a mysterious man showed up along the way, and even the Hearth House knew nothing about him."

Chen Mo smiled slightly and said, "Smart predators are often good at pretending to be prey, thereby luring other opponents into the trap."

"There's a saying in my hometown: 'The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it.'"

"Then the question is, how can you tell whether this so-called prey is a bait that lures people into a trap, or a hunter with a careful disguise? Or even a combination of both?"

Alechino couldn't help but think of the mysterious person he had just met, and then the scene of Villette's hasty appearance emerged in his mind.

Could it be that he also has some doubts?

Could it be about the authenticity of the water god?

However, it was obvious that this immortal from Liyue seemed to know more details.

Alechino hurriedly said, "Lord Chen Mo, the reason why Her Majesty the Queen temporarily entrusted Hearth House to you is because she hopes that you can give us full trust."

"After all, we are all here for Fontaine's prophecy."

Chen Mo looked at Arecino, poured her a cup of tea, and slowly said, "How much do you know about Fontaine's prophecy?"

Alechino took the hot tea and took a sip.

"From what I know, the primordial fetal water will flood the entire Fontaine and destroy everything."

A hint of worry appeared in her eyes. This mission was going to be difficult.

Chen Mo poured a cup of tea for each of them, smiled slightly, and said, "If that's the case, then I won't hide it anymore. In fact, there is more than one water god."

A look of "as expected" flashed across Alechino's eyes, which then explained what happened tonight.

Why is Furninna so weak? Why is there someone guarding her? Why is there a curse on her body...

However, the lady next to him was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth. She asked in a lost voice: "Could it be that the god of Fontaine is also a twin god like Inazuma?"

After a moment of silence, Alecino shook his head slightly and replied, "I'm afraid it's not that simple. In Fontaine, perhaps there is only one true god."

Then, her gaze fell into the distance, as if she was lost in memories, and continued: "The lady Furninna in public is just a chess piece placed on the table. The truth behind her is much more complicated than we imagined..."

Chen Mo said slowly: "A strategist who puts himself into the game is half a step ahead of heaven."

"The kindness of the water gods is far beyond your imagination. Whether it is the water gods of this generation or the previous generation, they are all using their kindness to protect this country."

Then he told the Water God's plan one by one.

The current water god is taking a gamble. If Villette does not choose Fontaine, then everything she has done will be meaningless.

And her cleverness lies in her belief that even a dragon will recognize a place and its people over time.

As long as there is life, there will be emotions.

I want you to watch me die. I entrust Fontaine to you, and you can deal with the people of Fontaine as you wish.

It is very similar to entrusting one's son to others in Baidi City.

Liu Bei made the right bet and left behind a prime minister who devoted his life to the country and worked until his death.

Fucaros also made the right bet. The people of Fontaine were pardoned of their sins, and Villette remained the supreme judge.

After the rain, the surviving people of Fontaine shouted loudly:

The prophecy is false!

But no, it was summoned by sacrificing a god.

So, what is falling from the sky is not rain, but tears.

Tears of the water god, and tears of the water dragon...
