Genshin Impact: Liyue's Strongest Thousand Rock Army
Chapter 331 The Remaining Years (6)
In the seventh year, an express letter of eight hundred miles was delivered to Liyue Harbor and presented on the table of the Seven Star Conference.
The seven stars either read or listened to the contents of the letter and fell into silence.
The letter was sent from the Abyss. The people who were still active in this dangerous place at that time could not be miners, but spies and scouts sent out to investigate the situation of monsters.
After briefly mentioning the number of casualties, the letter emphasized the large number of monsters beneath the abyss. One could even tell that the fingers of this well-trained spy were trembling slightly as he wrote the letter.
"Ancient Rock Dragon Lizards... there are still 100,000 of them!" Tianshuxing sighed and asked, "How much more powerful than how big a group of monsters? How much more powerful?"
The person who asked this question could only be Kaiyang Star Su Ping, one of the few generals in the field.
Su Ping shook his head and said in a dry voice: "I haven't seen so many, but it's not a big problem for an ancient rock dragon lizard to fight against a thousand heavily armored infantrymen with the Eye of God!"
Keqing added: "Ancient Rock Dragon Lizards live deep underground and usually do not live in groups. The abnormality this time could only be caused by the impending war."
No one spoke again in the conference room. The only sound in the silence was the gentle breathing of the Seven Stars, as if they were afraid of disturbing the giant beasts sleeping underground.
After a long time, Su Ping looked at the other six Seven Stars present and said solemnly: "Ancient Rock Dragon Lizards have no sense of pain and their shells are extremely hard. If 100,000 of them are really released onto the battlefield, we won't be able to hold on."
The "we" he was referring to was the Qianyan Army.
Tianxuanxing said bitterly: "No one can hold on."
Su Ping clasped his hands tightly together, his fingers were as dry as winter branches, and looked extremely ugly.
Ningguang sighed softly and said slowly: "Let's stop here for today."
No one objected.
After the meeting, none of the Seven Stars stayed in the meeting room. They all walked out quickly, hurrying as fast as they could, afraid of being slower than others, as if they were fleeing in a panic.
The couple Tianquan and Kaiyang were the ones who could not walk fast due to some personal reasons, so they were the only two left when they entered the elevator.
"Little brother, it's rare to encounter a monster, and you still look so worried."
"Sister Ningguang's words are also rare in previous years."
"Is there really no other way?"
"Maybe there is, but I haven't found it yet."
"Don't get too tired."
"Ok."
After coming out of the General Affairs Department, Su Ping went to Changsheng Hall alone with a team of guards.
Ningguang stared at the wheelchair that was getting farther and farther away, with an indescribable sadness in her peach blossom eyes, "I've been going to the Hall of the Dead a lot lately. Is... my end near?"
In the months that followed, life in Liyue Harbor went on as usual, except that a loud thunderclap would be followed by countless thunderclaps and the ground would shake violently, leaving residents in the harbor terrified.
This "earthquake" for which no cause could be found was naturally classified as a natural disaster.
What most people don't know is that the thunder was actually caused by human intervention, resulting from the collapse of a huge rock abyss caused by hundreds of thousands of pounds of explosives.
They don’t even know that some people are dying in battle just to maintain their current lives.
Before the troops move, the food and fodder must go first. But before the battle begins, the spies and scouts die.
……
The eighth year will be another eventful one.
Su Ping came out of the school, pushing Ningguang behind him, with two children beside him. They were all dressed in plain white clothes and mourning clothes.
Dressed like this, of course, someone has passed away.
The deceased was a saint, Su Ping's teacher, Confucius.
Let’s not talk about what a blow this would be to the 3,000 students and tens of thousands of disciples in the academy, and what kind of huge waves it would bring to Liyue’s governance and scholars’ writing. Let’s just say that this family, which has a deep connection with the deceased saint, is immersed in sorrow.
The family arrived at a small grocery store that had been closed all year round. The two children each found a corner to sit down, while the couple went to the small courtyard at the back, one after the other.
"How did Sister Ningguang know I wanted to come here?"
"Your mind is hard to guess, but not hard when you're sad."
"liquor……"
"Don't drink too much."
"Yes."
So, after hearing the promise, Ningguang went outside to get a pot of wine and brought it to her little brother.
“No more than three cups.”
The couple spoke at the same time, showing their tacit understanding.
……
In the ninth year of the same year, Qingce Village and other places outside the port moved to Liyue Port. Various aspects such as food, housing, food, clothing and other expenses were issues that the bigwigs had to worry about. However, the young boy and girl who were watching Captain Long on the street did not have to worry about it.
"Little brother Xu, did Uncle Xu ask you to join the battle?"
"Yes, Dad is about to start a war, and men should charge in the front..."
He stopped talking before he could finish his words, because the white-haired girl in his eyes had a face full of resentment.
The girl is the eldest daughter of the Su family, Su Lingling, and the young man surnamed Xu is the son of Xu Hongyi, one of the four great generals of the Qianyan Army.
This young boy and girl grew up together and knew each other very well. But at this age when puberty was budding, they both had some indescribable emotions. However, due to the war ahead, the chances to meet each other became fewer and fewer, so no one mentioned it, fearing that it would be another sad thing.
"No more talking. I still have to go practice my shooting skills. Take care of yourself."
"Okay, Sister Lingling."
"Remember, you are not allowed to die, and you are not allowed to not come back!"
"Yes!"
This young master of the Xu family has always obeyed the eldest daughter of the Su family.
On the other side, there is a small tea stall outside Yujingtai. The stall does not sell tea, but it will give a cup of tea to passers-by who ask for it to quench their thirst. The taste of the tea has become excellent since this year.
Those who have had the good fortune to have tasted it speculated that perhaps it was because the young lady who was looking after the tea stall was accompanied by a young man who was equally young, but had an extraordinary bearing, a handsome face, and was very well dressed. He should not be from a nouveau riche family, and there was a shining Ice God's Eye on his waist.
The young man called the young lady "Little Sister", and the young lady called the young man "Yunqing".
"Little Sister, the tea stall has been getting better and better recently. Everyone says that you are even more skilled and kind-hearted than my grandmother."
"You can't say that. Master knows a lot, but there are still many things I don't know. This tea stand was passed down to me because my senior brother and sister were busy."
"But in the end, it was carried forward in the hands of the young nun."
"Thanks to the precious tea you brought earlier, but will Senior Brother really not be angry?"
"No, my father is so kind that he seems to be a god. How could he be angry with us because of a little tea? As for my mother, if she heard that I gave the tea to my junior nun, she would definitely be happy."
There are really not many people in Liyue Harbor who meet the qualifications of these two people, and the only ones who can say these words are Yaoyao and Su Yunqing, the young master of the Su family.
Yaoyao had already grown into a young girl at this time, standing tall and graceful, but she still had two buns on her head and was wearing a turquoise dress, which showed that she had inherited the true skills of her master.
Su Yunqing suddenly lowered her head, her eyes fixed, and after a while she said with a strange expression, "Little Sister, don't you feel cold?"
Yaoyao raised her eyebrows, "Cold? No, it's not the Frost Descent yet."
Su Yunqing asked, "Then it will be cold in winter?"
Yaoyao explained: "No, Yunqing, have you forgotten that I am a disciple of the Immortal Family and have immortal power, so how can I be afraid of the cold?"
Su Yunqing added: "You also need to keep warm, otherwise it will be bad for your health..."
Yaoyao blinked her eyes, not realizing that she had made the boy beside her confused and infatuated, and asked directly: "Yunqing, what do you want to say?"
Su Yunqing swallowed her saliva, took a deep breath to get rid of the thoughts in her mind, cursed the guys from the Construction Bureau viciously in her heart, and said seriously: "Little Sister, can I have a skirt? This one is too short."
Yaoyao groaned, lowered her head and leaned over to take a look, and said, "Is it short? It's just a little above the knee."
Su Yunqing nodded heavily, "It's too short. You can't wear it outside!"
Yaoyao burst out laughing, "Yunqing, it's rare for you to be like this, but it's to let me change my skirt."
Su Yunqing curled his lips and said, "It must be changed."
Yaoyao nodded and said, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you and change it when I get back."
"No, we have to change it now!"
"Now? But this is a tea stall. Even if there is a tent covering it, I don't have any other clothes with me."
"I can go buy clothes. As for safety issues...Don't worry, Little Sister-in-law, I'll be guarding inside. There won't be any problems, hehe."
Yaoyao was startled when she heard that. She looked up and didn't find any strange expression on that clean face. She then breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately, Yun Qing was not corrupted, but he actually dared to tease me... What if he was not lying, what should I do?
The more Yaoyao thought about it, the more flustered she became. Her face flushed red, and she reached out and gently patted the boy's head, which he had lowered on his own initiative.
Su Yunqing was secretly happy and grinning foolishly.
"Is there any tea here?"
An old voice suddenly came from outside, startling the two people in the tea stall. They immediately stopped lingering together and playing the trick of resting their heads on shoulders, and sat up straight. However, even with the cloth blocking their way, their faces still looked a little unnatural.
It wasn't because of the sudden fright, nor was it because of some resentment towards the person who disturbed him, but a kind of... strange emotion of being caught in a premature love affair by one's elders.
I want my elders to see it, but I don’t want them to find out.
Seeing that the young man beside him didn't speak for a long time, Yaoyao had to speak herself and invited the person outside in. She stood up and lifted the tent cloth, "Big Brother, please come in."
Su Ping's wheelchair was slowly pushed forward, and he leaned over and whispered something behind him before leaving.
Su Ping faced the two of them and said with a smile, "Don't be so anxious to separate. I can't see."
"Big Brother!"
"Father...when did you come?"
When these words came out, the two young ones were both worried.
"Start from the part about changing the skirt." Su Ping didn't keep anyone in suspense.
Su Yunqing and Yaoyao looked at each other. They wanted to escape from here as quickly as possible, but it was just a thought and no one acted.
Su Ping said to his son, "Don't mess around with emotional matters."
"Yes."
Su Ping said to the junior sister again, "This child was not like this before. Yaoyao, please bear with him. Of course, if he is too bad, just teach him a lesson."
"Eh?"
This was Yaoyao's second "eh" today.
