Genshin Impact: Liyue's Strongest Thousand Rock Army

On February , the dragon looked up.

In Liyue Harbor, the streets are bustling with people. There is a thin and handsome young man in a blue robe as vast as the sea, with waist-length hair, flowing and elegant.

He is Nan Zhangsheng, the young boss of Chunxiang Kiln. With nothing to do, he can only pace on the street, hoping to find something to do, which is the so-called looking for trouble.

"Sister Beidou is sailing away again, Brother Su is on his honeymoon with a rich woman, I don't have to take care of the family business, Qiqi just left yesterday, and I can't write the book... Oh, life is so boring!"

Nan Zhangsheng kept complaining as he walked, as if he had so many things to worry about, but he had a feeling he didn't know where to start. However, this was just his "worrying about nothing".

After all, even if his hands cannot do anything, he is still a young boss, and he is very handsome. He gets a lot of attention when he walks on the street, and he has no worries about food and clothing. He is simply... looking for trouble.

Just as he was looking around, wondering whether to go to the teahouse or the pub, something suddenly rolled in front of him and gently touched the tip of his shoe.

At the same time, he just caught a glimpse of a man and a woman who were running towards him. The man was handsome with almond-shaped eyes, and the woman had a great figure, a beautiful face, and was wearing a fiery red dress.

They moved so quickly that they could almost move without touching the ground. They must have something important to do so hastily. And the woman's face, in particular, had a slightly guilty and worried look on it, which was very strange.

Nan Zhangsheng's mouth corners slightly raised, and then he raised his foot and touched the thing in front of him. It was an empty glass bottle, which looked very ordinary and unremarkable.

"Ouch!" Nan Zhangsheng let out a strange cry, then fell backwards, first sitting down and then lying down very quickly, with a look of serious injury on his face, as if he would not live long.

Although the noise was not loud, it was enough to attract attention on the street. Some people looked sideways with curiosity, and then slowly gathered over.

This put the woman in red in a dilemma. Although the boy lying on the ground fell with considerable skill, she could easily see that it was a blatant scam, so she didn't intend to do anything about it.

But now everyone had gathered around, blocking her way. She had a way to leave, but she also had no way to leave without making a bigger noise. She was in this awkward situation, not knowing whether to leave or not.

Just when the woman seemed to have finally made up her mind and rolled up her sleeves slightly, revealing a little bit of her crystal skin underneath, the handsome man next to her coughed lightly.

“Got it,” the woman muttered softly, pulling her sleeves back, somewhat helplessly.

Nan Zhangsheng saw all of this and couldn't help but say to himself, "The Emperor is so powerful. He is indeed one of the few people in Teyvat who can control Alice. But he followed her closely even when she entered the city. How afraid is he that she will blow up Liyue Harbor?"

The Rock King Emperor, or the man who transformed himself into a mortal master and wandered around, was Zhongli. He had a dignified appearance, and an awe-inspiring demeanor. Looking at the young man lying on the ground, he was speechless.

The woman, Alice, had long light blonde hair, a fiery red dress, and a pair of pointed elf ears. She looked very special. Her face was absolutely beautiful and her figure was unparalleled, the best in the world.

However, at this moment, Alice was facing a teenage boy's attempt to scam her. Anyone who encountered such a thing for no reason would probably be in a bad mood, and she was the same, but she didn't show it on her face.

“Ahem…” Nan Zhangsheng coughed a few times, and then began his performance. His handsome face wrinkled and he shouted, “You…you have to compensate me!”

Alice's mouth twitched, "Don't try to scam me, I saw it clearly just now, you deliberately stepped on the bottle and then fell down!"

"Nonsense, how could someone drop himself? I'm not a fool. Let me put it this way, I see you're new here, so it's not difficult for you. Let's find a place to talk and settle it privately." Nan Zhangsheng looked as if he was considering the other party.

As soon as Alice heard this, she knew there was something fishy going on, so she didn't plan to follow the boy's words. Instead, she said calmly, "Forget about it if you don't admit it. I'll report it to the General Affairs Department and let them handle it. Let's see who is right!"

The onlookers also thought that it would be better to report it to the General Affairs Department. After all, there are many scammers these days, so it is always better to be cautious.

Nan Zhangsheng looked at the handsome man who was silent, and said, "Mr. Zhongli, I wonder if your wallet has become fatter recently? If it is finally fatter, then what I once had..."

"Not yet." Zhongli interrupted.

Nan Zhangsheng smiled inwardly. He naturally knew that the other party must have no money. The reason why he did this was just to ask for help from the other party, because he felt that he probably could not deal with this red-clothed elf.

"Ms. Alice, if you go to the General Affairs Department, it will take up too much time, which is not good for your writing and travel ambitions." Zhongli advised.

Alice was stunned. Why would this dignified Rock King listen to the words of the young man on the ground and even want her to settle the matter privately? Could it be that this young man was his... illegitimate son?

This idea is outrageous and there is no evidence, but Alice has always acted in this style. She doesn't care whether it is true or not, she just thinks so.

"Ms. Alice, the weather is not cold now in spring, but lying down for a long time will be harmful to your health. Make a decision as soon as possible." Under Nan Zhangsheng's gaze, Zhongli had no choice but to urge her.

Alice's lips moved slightly, and it was unclear whether she was saying something silently. It seemed that she was just going to wait here and then "send" the two people in.

Unfortunately, this was just thought. For the convenience of the trip to Liyue and to not waste too much time, she could only agree.

Nan Zhangsheng was secretly delighted, and then he continued with the same expression, and slowly said: "The contract has been concluded, please ask the emperor to be a witness, and those who break their promise will be punished by eating rocks!"

Everyone was wondering, does this matter really need the Emperor to witness?

Although the boy looked weak, he was still able to speak, which meant that his injuries were definitely not serious. He wanted to settle the matter privately because he probably felt that the price he asked for could be higher than what the General Affairs Department determined. This was also possible.

Amidst the various opinions, Zhongli leaned over and put Nan Zhangsheng on his back, and then under his instructions, led Alice away from there.

The three of them were walking on the street. Zhongli looked indifferent, Nan Zhangsheng was secretly delighted, and Alice, who had just arrived in Liyue Harbor and was first followed by the gods of this country and then severely blackmailed, was just trying to see what the other party was up to.

Nan Zhangsheng smiled and said softly, "Thank you very much, Mr. Zhongli. I'll pay for the tea for the next six months."

Zhongli Wuyan, his real identity is the Rock King Emperor, but he is carrying a young man on his back who seems to have nothing to his name except his looks, and he just helped to scam a foreign traveler.

"Ahem, um, may I ask this lady's name and where she lives?" Nan Zhangsheng turned his head, the weak look on his face completely disappeared, his face was flushed and he was full of energy and vigor.

Alice suddenly felt angry because she now had all the ways and means to play tricks on others, but she didn't know how to use them, for fear of being thrown out of Liyue, which would be too tragic.

In her opinion, since this young man could be carried on the back of Emperor Rock King, they must have a very close relationship. Although he had only transformed into the identity and body of a mortal, he still had the status of an emperor and it was impossible for him to be so shameless.

But in fact, Nan Zhangsheng also saw that this could confuse people, so he had the idea of ​​committing fraud, because he knew how terrifying this lady was, and he had to leave some impression on her, no matter whether it was good or bad.

"Well...what happened just now was purely due to reasons. If ma'am, um, if this beautiful fairy sister who is so stunningly beautiful as to shame the moon and the flowers, and the fish and geese fall to the ground, is unhappy, then I apologize to you. I'm sorry!" Nan Zhangsheng smiled.

Alice remained calm and showed no intention of speaking.

Nan Zhangsheng continued, "There really was a reason for this. I was anxious, so I came up with a solution in a hurry. There really was no other reason for this!"

Alice remained unmoved, and thought that she must prove herself against this boy the day before leaving Liyue, no matter who tried to stop her.

Because, she just committed fraud, and now she is shirking her responsibilities after just a few words. Even she herself cannot be so shameless. It is really... shameless.

Alice silently made this conclusion about the boy in her heart. She looked at his handsome face again and felt that it would look better if two turtles were painted on it.

Nan Zhangsheng was still smiling, as if his smile was worthless. "It's normal for you to feel resentful. After all, my approach was indeed abrupt. I will try my best to compensate you for whatever you want."

His eyes were clear and bright with a hopeful look, and he was very sincere. If it weren't for the fraud incident that just happened, Alice might have agreed just for fun.

Not only that, Nan Zhangsheng also tugged at Zhongli's sleeve and took a deep breath, indicating that he would increase the salary for another three months.

Zhongli was a man of integrity, but for the sake of this "eight pecks of rice", he had to say in a nice way, "The student's talent is unparalleled, he knows a lot of strange things, he is the best among his peers, and his character is also upright. I'm sure there must be a reason for what happened just now, please forgive me."

Alice chuckled, her beautiful eyes slightly closed, and she smacked her lips and said, "Then let him guess what my name is and where I live. No cheating, no off-field assistance, and he can only answer it himself!"

"Okay!" Nan Zhangsheng agreed immediately and said, "But I can't just answer the questions in vain. What will you do if I answer all the questions correctly?"

Alice said unhappily, "You were wrong first, and you still want me to do something? If you can't answer, then we should just go our separate ways now!"

"In other words, if I answer correctly, you won't leave, right?" Nan Zhangsheng stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "Your name is Alice, and your hometown is Mondstadt now!"

Alice's eyes flashed with surprise, but she didn't say anything. She was supposed to be bullying people everywhere and making them so angry, but now she seemed to be frustrated, as if she was being "suppressed".

Zhongli was calm and silent as well, but he was also wondering how this young boy knew about it, and if he knew about it, why did he ask just now?

Seeing their expressions, Nan Zhangsheng casually said some words he had prepared to dispel their doubts.

"Ms. Alice, you can tell at a glance that your clothes belong to Mond. This is not difficult to guess. As for how I know your name, it started a long time ago."

He shook his head and began to speak at length, saying that he had been to Mondstadt before and had heard of the glorious story of someone who blew up the city gate of Mondstadt. He also gave a detailed description of that person, who looked like Alice in front of him.

“So, this is also a verification for me.”
