Genshin Impact: Liyue's Strongest Thousand Rock Army

Dihuazhou is a plain with only one path connecting the north and the south. It is located to the north of Guiliyuan and also to the north of Liyue.

Although there is not much land here, there are still many monsters. However, their number and ferocity are not enough to compete with the monsters in Lishajiao. After all, the area there is really vast.

Since Su Ping became the captain of a thousand men here, he would lead a certain number of soldiers to patrol around the area every day, which really lived up to his nickname "Demon Slayer".

He felt a little uncomfortable if he didn't kill a monster for a day. He knew it was not a good habit, but there was no need to change it at the moment, as there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

Every day when he went into battle, Su Ping's spear tip would be stained with blood, and he would come back with a bag of monster trophies. His determination to fight every time and kill the enemy also infected many soldiers.

They have all become captains of a thousand men, yet they are still working so hard and persisting. Of course, they cannot fall behind. The Qianyan Army, which is already extremely brave, is now even more unstoppable and full of momentum.

Xu Hongyi, who was familiar to Su Ping, could kill the hillock thugs with a gun in one hand. This was the result of his strong physical strength. If combined with the Eye of God, he could sweep through a small monster camp by himself without any harm.

A thousand soldiers like this swept across the northernmost area of ​​Ogihua Island, forming a trend like a swarm of locusts. Wherever they went, all the monsters were destroyed.

Of course, it is impossible for everything to go smoothly. After all, this is a battlefield. Where there are enemies, there will be casualties. This is a trend that cannot be avoided even with the presence of Su Ping and Xu Hongyi.

On a cloudy, stormy day, when Su Ping led his men out to kill monsters, he happened to catch a glimpse of a caravan heading south again. After checking their documents and goods and confirming that they were all correct, everyone let them pass.

A soldier looked at the group leaving and muttered to himself, "So this is the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce group. They brought a lot of escorts with them. No wonder they dare to walk alone."

Another sergeant agreed, "That's right, but I didn't see their Liu Biaotou this time, which is quite surprising."

"I don't know. He must be sick at home. I haven't heard any other news."

"Forget it, let's just keep killing monsters. Killing monsters is much better than talking about these things."

"Yes, especially when I can follow the captain, killing monsters is so neat, satisfying and enjoyable!"

It was obvious that the soldiers had a very good opinion of this young centurion. After all, his actions always made it easy for people to ignore his age.

At the front of the team, Su Ping was holding Miechen in his hand. This precious spear could kill monsters without leaving any blood. Even the blood of a large monster, which was as sticky as paste, could not stick to the tip and barrel of the spear.

In the past few days, he has swept across the northern area of ​​Dihua Island like a whirlwind. If monsters had emotions, they would probably stay away from this notorious guy and turn pale at the mention of him.

However, it seems that between each monster camp, except for the crisis of riots, not many monsters will go out and walk around. This may be related to emotions or wisdom, and humans have no way of knowing.

It is also possible that they actually have a way to spread the news, but it is unknown. However, every time Su Ping goes into battle, he sweeps through all the monster camps, leaving no one alive and killing them all. So even if there is a way to spread the news, no monster can spread it.

……

September in late autumn is the day when new recruits enter the camp, and it is also the day when new recruits who have been trained for a period of time leave the camp.

Liyue Harbor, eating at Tiger Rock Street.

Next to the well-known Wanmin Hall, a new hotpot stall has opened with a signboard affiliated with Wanmin Hall, which is obviously a transformation from a snack stand.

On this day, ten soldiers from the Qianyan Army came to the door. Not every one of them was handsome, but they were full of righteousness. Just sitting in the stall was enough to attract the attention of others.

These ten soldiers were wearing clothes but no armor, which meant they were unemployed but could return to work at any time.

"Hongyi, how about introducing me to you?" Xu Ruihao raised his eyebrows and asked curiously to the young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes beside him, "Just now I saw you flirting with the female boss."

Xu Hongyi coughed twice and said solemnly: "The reason why I brought everyone together today is first to reminisce about the past, and also..."

Halfway through his words, he looked at the woman who was walking over with a plate of food, smiled very gently, and said softly, "Let me introduce you all, this is my girlfriend, Su Er Niang!"

The other nine people mostly expressed congratulations and blessings, and called this woman of average appearance with short hair "sister-in-law" or "sister-in-law".

Su Ping was also slightly surprised. He hadn't seen this neighbor of the stall for some years and he almost didn't recognize him. After all, the changes before and after were quite big.

Su Erniang put down the full tea tray, covered her mouth and chuckled, "Hello, everyone, eat and drink well. If there are not enough dishes or the wine is finished, call me and I will bring it to you."

Jiang Yupei, who was a little thin, was very outgoing. He patted his chest and promised, "Okay, I'll take good care of my sister-in-law's business today!"

The others echoed and vied with each other, saying that they would pay the bill later.

Su Erniang hurriedly said no, and at the same time gave Xu Hongyi a wink, who immediately understood her meaning.

"Second Mother, let me introduce our brothers to you. This is my childhood friend Xu Ruihao, squad leader Huang Jingxi, Wu Yanqi who aspires to sail, Jiang Yupei, Yicheng, Xinghuo, Ai Ke, Jiayi, and Su Ping who is now my boss."

Whenever he mentioned someone, he would look at that person, and that person would smile and nod in greeting, or wave and say hello.

Su Ping was the last one to speak. His response was somewhat different from the others. He smiled and said, "Hello, Second Sister and Sister-in-law."

Su Erniang heard this address that she hadn't heard for some years, and then she recognized the handsome boy in front of her. It was the dark-skinned Su Xiaodi at that time. She said in a gentle voice: "Well, I didn't expect to see you again now. I thought you didn't do business anymore, and I probably wouldn't see you again in the future."

Su Ping smiled and said, "As long as they are all in Liyue Harbor, how can we not see each other?"

After he finished speaking, he also explained the past. Everyone suddenly realized and marveled at the wonder of fate in this world. They didn't expect that Xu Hongyi's girlfriend, who used to be a neighbor at the stall, has now become his brother.

However, the situation could not be said to be awkward. After all, they were not enemies, or exes like those in novels. How could it be awkward?

After this minor incident, Xu Hongyi patted his chest and waved his hand, saying, "Today's order is mine, don't grab it!"

Su Ping shook his head. "There's no reason for me to let you spend money."

Xu Hongyi waved his hands, no longer showing the pure kindness he had in the past, and actually started to argue, "There's no logic to paying for this. Whoever makes the decision and gets it first gets it."

Su Ping smiled but said nothing.

Xu Ruihao closed his eyes slightly, still looking the same as before, "I'm afraid my sister-in-law won't agree, how about we split it equally?"

Xu Hongyi smiled, looked at the woman next to him, and waited for her to speak.

Su Erniang smiled faintly and said, "It's okay, it's our treat."

Their eyes intertwined, as if there was something indescribable being transmitted to each other. This sweet and affectionate scene made the other nine people burst into laughter.

After the laughter, two people looked normal, but the others shook their heads and sighed, because they had never tasted love so far, and they felt melancholy and lost.

Xu Ruihao, who was always talkative, looked at the two people who looked calm and composed, and sighed, "Su Ping and Jiayi, one of you has a beautiful wife, and the other even had a daughter before joining the army. You really don't have to worry about anything."

Jiayi spread his hands, "If you work hard, you will get it."

Su Ping said innocently: "Once fate has arrived, it cannot be stopped. But if you push the opportunity away, you can't blame others."

We talked and laughed, drank the wine and ate the food, and we were very happy.

Su Ping drank more than ten glasses of wine, and his face looked normal, as if he could drink a thousand glasses without getting drunk. However, when he picked up the chopsticks to put the food into the bowl, he paused for a moment.

He glanced behind the stall, at the dark alley, without saying anything.

On the other side, a middle-aged man put his arm around Xu Hongyi's shoulder. Judging from his appearance, he was a staff member of the General Affairs Department. He claimed that he was looking for the mastermind of a theft case.

"I wonder if any of the soldiers have any clues?"

Xu Hongyi looked at the middle-aged man and shook his head, saying, "I haven't seen him. The only place around here where he might be hiding is in that alley. How about you go and look for him, old man?"

The middle-aged man smiled faintly and said nothing more. Then several people came out from the end of the alley. They were all wearing different clothes. The one they were escorting was the criminal.

When this happened, many diners at the stall were shocked. The middle-aged man hurried over to comfort them. Xu Hongyi and others also stood up to help, after all, it was within the scope of their work.

After everyone was settled, the ten soldiers returned to their original seats. The difference was that Xu Hongyi still pulled the middle-aged man, wanting him to stay as well.

Everyone was puzzled, only Xu Ruihao showed understanding, and also advised: "Uncle Xu, why don't you eat a few bites of food before leaving?"

Xu Hongyi also said: "Dad, please wait a moment. I have something to tell you."

A trace of pity flashed across the middle-aged man's face. He could only stand still, looking at the table of young people, and introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Xu Xun, and I am a staff member of the General Affairs Department."

"Hello, Uncle Xu." The soldiers stood up and responded.

Su Ping was no exception and added, "It's been many years since we last met, Uncle Xu."

Xu Xun looked at the handsome boy in front of him in confusion, "My memory is not as good as before, who are you?"

Su Ping smiled and said, "Su Ping, you have been to investigate a case near my home before, in Nancun."

Xu Xun suddenly realized that these things were brought up, and of course he remembered them. He looked at the young man and smiled gently, "It's been many years since we last met. You're already a member of the Qianyan Army, and even a captain of a thousand men!"

Xu Hongyi pondered and understood the various circumstances. He also had a concrete impression of the person who had changed his father's attitude towards him.

That was a question asked at Yujingtai many years ago, which resulted in the addition of a brave soldier to the Qianyan Army.

Not long after, Xu Xun was about to leave, saying that work was still very important and many things about the criminal still needed to be finalized by him as the chief prosecutor.

Xu Hongyi knew that his father had always been like this, so he took him directly to meet his girlfriend, and also said explicitly and implicitly that she was a very good girl.

This meeting was hasty and unprepared, and Xu Xun only said, "This is your child's business, you have to look into it yourself, don't ask me."

Finally, Xu Xun left the stall in a hurry, and it was obvious that he did not dare to delay any longer. His son Xu Hongyi saw him off and only returned to the stall after watching the thin figure with white hair on his temples go away.

That night, they drank very late, their faces were all red, and they walked out of the hot pot stall, supporting each other. The streets were still bustling, the old friends were still there, but time was unforgiving.
