Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

The sun was setting in the west, and the shadow of the roadside tea stall was stretched very long. A stern boy sank into the shadow and sat opposite an ordinary young man.

Seeing a customer coming, the tea stall owner trotted over with a smile on his face: "There are other empty seats in the shop. Do you want to share the table with this gentleman?"

Green Xiao did not answer, but looked at the ordinary young man sitting opposite him. The latter smiled and put the teacup in his hand back on the table: "It's okay, meeting is fate. Since this young man and I are destined to meet, why don't you take a seat here."

"Okay!" After hearing what the first customer said, the stall owner immediately began to entertain him enthusiastically, "What would you like to drink, young man? In addition to tea, we also have snacks for you to choose from."

"I......"

Green Xiao didn't come here for tea. Faced with the question, he didn't know how to choose. If he refused, he would be suspected of ruining the party.

Fortunately, the person he was looking for saw his dilemma and helped him out.

"Since you don't know how to choose, why not listen to my advice..."

Soon, tea and snacks were served.

Green Xiao held the teacup and looked at the ordinary young man opposite him, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

The latter had already noticed his gaze, but pretended not to notice it, leisurely sipping the tea in the cup. After a while, he asked nonchalantly: "Brother, do you have anything to say to me?"

"Emperor..." Green Mandrill helplessly looked at Morax, who was concentrating on playing the role of a mortal, "When we parted at noon, you told me that if I had any doubts, I would come to you in the evening."

"It's true." Morax nodded and waited for Green Mandrill to continue, but the latter remained speechless.

How should I tell the people in the illusion about my doubts about this illusion?

Seeing that Green Mandrill was still not speaking, Morax glanced at the afterglow in the sky and chuckled, "Your doubts are related to the illusion, that is, the world we live in."

Suddenly, Green Xiao showed a shocked expression: "How did the Emperor know?"

Zhongli took a snack from the green Xiao and said as he ate, "In order to keep you here, this illusion created the most real me according to your memory.

Its creator is too weak, and there is a huge gap between him and the real me. Therefore, it cannot control me and manipulate my every word and action like a puppet.

And because I hold an extraordinary position in your heart, I occupy a very important position in the illusion, and therefore I know a lot of things."

"The most real...Emperor?" asked Green Goblin.

Morax took a sip of tea to neutralize the snacks he had just eaten: "That's right. Although it is fictional, it is the closest to reality among so many layers."

The green goblin took some time to digest these words, and then asked: "Then how do I leave here?"

Morax didn't try to hide the truth like a normal boss boss, but directly told Green Xiao the method: "Stay away from the center of the illusion, that is, Liyue. The farther the better. Of course, there is an easier way, which is to destroy the pillars of the illusion, such as me."

Green Goblin stood up from his seat suddenly, but did not attract anyone's attention.

"There is no way Xiao would attack the Emperor!"

Morax smiled and said, "Then run away, away from Liyue."

He looked at the setting sun again: "But you don't have much time."

"Sun? Time?" Green Mandrill also noticed that Morax had been watching the sunset. "What will happen when the sun sets?"

"You're going to get deeper and deeper into this."

After finishing the tea in the cup, Morax looked at the green goblin in front of him, as if he wanted to imprint the other's appearance in his mind.

“You may be wondering, since time is so urgent, why do I ask you to come to me now and tell you the truth.

After all, I come from your memory, and I am also the rock lord of this place. I have some selfish motives of my own and don't want to see this country fall into annihilation.

Most of the time, my purpose is consistent with that of the illusion itself, so I will let you let down your guard and enjoy the momentary pleasure, and you are... very obedient.

But in this final time, I will tell you the truth and give you the right to choose.

I once brought you out of the cage, so I will certainly not imprison you for my own selfish desires.

So, what is your choice, to stay in this world where so many tragedies have not happened?"

The green goblin lowered his head and clenched and unclenched his fists. Morax just watched him silently without urging him.

People were coming and going in the tea stall, but the only sound in Green Goblin's ears was his own heartbeat and Morax's steady breathing. He seemed to be in a different world from the others.

Just as the daylight was about to fade, he finally spoke.

"I... still want to go out."

In response, Morax simply replied with "OK".

The next moment, a rare look of fear appeared on Lu Xiao's face. The scene in front of him suddenly collapsed, and then he turned into a God's perspective, looking down at the land of Liyue from high above.

The waves of rock rose from the prosperous port and then swept everywhere, leveling the mountains and filling the rivers and seas.

After the wave, stalagmites rose from the ground one after another, like pillars of heaven. Various minerals seemed to come alive, crawling all over the pillars like vegetation.

Suddenly, there was nothing left on the land of Liyue except rocks and minerals.

The long night is approaching, and there is no time to stay away from Liyue. The only thing left is to destroy the pillars of the illusion.

The long-lasting rumbling of the earth was the last words that Morax left for the green goblin.

Honey is covered with six layers of arsenic...

"No!" Green Goblin suddenly sat up from the bed.

"You're awake? But you had a nightmare?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Green Mandrill was stunned, staring blankly at Morax beside the bed, until the latter wiped the corner of his eye with his fingertips, and then he realized that he was already in tears.

Crying yourself?

Is it because of the nightmare just now?

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came into his mind and his eyes focused.

No, it was a dream, and it was not a dream.

There are six layers of arsenic wrapped around the honey. Don't let poison replace the sweet heart.

There are seven layers in the fantasy world. Liyue will be reset on each layer, but people will not. Don't let a clumsy pretender become the new master of Yan.

Green Mandrill wiped away his tears, composed himself, and was ready to say goodbye to "Morax".

This time, he had to stay away from the center of the illusion for a long time. But the process was not smooth, "Moracus" would try every means to keep him, and so would the Four Yakshas, ​​but he still found a loophole and slipped away.

He slipped away again and again, and in the end, "Morax" actually tried to imprison him, but of course it didn't work. One reason was that he was prepared and reacted quickly, and the other was that this "Morax" couldn't beat him.

Looking at the loser in front of him, he never expected that he would have the intention to kill the emperor one day. Perhaps the actions of this impostor were too damaging to the emperor's image. But in the end, he still didn't kill him.

This time, he finally woke up not beside Morax, but in the void. Besides him, there was only a lion wearing broken bone armor.

When he saw the green goblin appear, a hint of impatience flashed in Yao's eyes.

"Why is there another one?"
