A former fool wants to change the world

L.

??Today my childhood sweetheart Hu Shao brought her friends to see me

??Well, there's no need to guess. There are only a few people who dare to have close contact with her, and the only one she brings is Berning.

??After going through so many things, I didn’t expect that the three of us would still get together again after 500 years. It’s a bit surprising.

??Sen...ah no, forget about Berning's solemn expression, why does even that optimist Hu Shao have a bitter look on his face?

??"What should Ariel do?"Ah Shao crossed the threshold and rushed towards me. I quickly caught her.

??Ah Shao's nose and tears were rubbing against my clothes. The last time she did this was because she lost a bet with me and added too much pepper to the skewers.

??But this time it was obviously different, I actually heard the cry

??She buried her head in my chest and said in a muffled voice,"Alie, if you had to choose between Ningzi and Dijun, who would you choose?"

??Of course I will choose the Emperor! Bernin is just a friend of my friend, not acquainted with him at all

??"But what if... the emperor is no longer the emperor?"

??Although Ah Shao is lively by nature, she never lies on such important matters. So the news she revealed to me now……

??"That's what I said."

Berning was still standing outside the threshold. I hurriedly invited her into the courtyard. The wooden door creaked, and then there was a bang.

??I locked the lock and asked Berning with a frown:"Why do you say that?"

??No one in the entire continent knows that Emperor Yanwang is the oldest god. Even if they are friends, this is not a joke.——

??"Your Excellency Huan Lie, have you ever heard of the word"wear and tear"?"

??"As time passes or various experiences pass by, things or people change their character, cognition, etc., and this change generally refers to a bad change."

??This is the conclusion I came to after visiting all the bookstalls in Liyue and looking through most of the relevant books in the Mondstadt Library.

??The God of Contract has existed for more than six thousand years, how could He not be affected by wear and tear?

??"Do you need me to introduce to Your Excellency Huan Lie the horror of [wear and tear]?"Bernin was holding the table with one hand, and Ah Shao and I were lying on the table without any strength - looking up information was really laborious work.

??"Take the well-known legend of Liyue as an example, Ruotuo Dragon King……"

??"……So it's not"Rituo"?"Ah Shao complained

??"Because people exploited minerals and destroyed the earth's veins, the Dragon King Ruotu began to destroy humans in order to protect his own source of power, and was eventually sealed by Morax. During the long period of sealing, the fact that his best friend Morax personally sealed him was gradually amplified, further causing the"wear and tear" of Ruoduo Dragon King. As a result, Ruotuo Dragon King was dominated by hatred and even forgot that he was sealed voluntarily."

??"What!!"

??Ah Shao jumped up from his seat. Although this fact was beyond my expectation, I was actually somewhat mentally prepared.

??After all, the mining situation of the layered rock abyss is obvious to all. If I were Ruotuo Dragon King, I would like to tear down the entire Liyue.

??But the influence can still reach the gods’ relatives……

??Well, since I know a lot of information, I won’t worry about Bernin calling the emperor by his first name.

??Suddenly a light flashed through my mind

??"Wait, let's put it this way, Inazuma's previous isolation from the country was actually……"

??"Your Excellency Huan Lie is indeed very intelligent."

??"Wait, wait, where are you talking about? I can't keep up at all!"

??I:"……"

??Berning:"……"

??Should we say that Ah Shao's slow reaction arc is a good thing or a bad thing?

??"What we mean is that the decision-making direction of a country is closely related to the god in charge of it. The God of Thunder's creed is"eternity", so he must be trying to resist"wear and tear" by isolating the outside world."

??"I understand when you say this. Ariel is so smart!"

??Therefore, even if the wear and tear is quite terrible, how can the person in front of him determine that the emperor has been worn away?

??"The so-called small hermitage is hidden in the wild, and the great hermitage is hidden in the city. But the other party seemed to see through what I was thinking,"Don't you, Mr. Huan Lie, still know who Emperor Yan Wang is?""

??……Okay, that's obvious enough.

??But having said that, I haven’t seen Him around Liyue Port in the past few days.……

??Even if he hadn't seen her before, there was no way he wouldn't come back for nearly a week... This completely violated the [contract] between him and Liyue!

??"Let's go! Ah Shao, who was lying dead on the table, jumped up for the second time,"In this case, those immortals must know——"

To be honest, since I was rescued by Zhiqiong, I have no good impression of the immortals.

I also understand that she is not just for personal wishes, but also to carve human traces into this land, to stand alongside gods, immortals, demons and owners of the Eye of God.

There may be differences in strength, but there is no difference in will. In a sense, ordinary people can live more clearly and understandably than those with divine eyes, because they will not place their wishes in an object, nor will they live because of it. If you lose it, you will worry about gains and losses.

??Although as Qianyan Army, it is our duty to dedicate everything to Liyue, but sometimes when I listen to Tian Tiezui's stories in Sanwanbuigang, I still feel a rare sense of loneliness.

??Our sacrifices have been briefly mentioned, and all of them are concentrated on the power that mortals can only look up to.

??This emotion reached its peak when I heard the mother bird say that she wanted to conquer Liyue Port.

??Mortals can easily defeat a god who cannot even look up to other gods?

??Besides, where do you think Liyue Port is?

??"Ah——lie——"

……Yeah, when I think of those things, my anger starts to rise.

??Be calm and don't argue with a bird. I quickly came to my senses and rejected the invitation of the two"girls" to go with me.

??"No, I don't like immortals"

"let's go! If it doesn't work, just watch from the side!"

In this way, I was carried (forced) by two strange women in turns to Wangshu Inn.

I must be glad that I didn't kill my words before.

There was a plate of almond tofu in front of me, and a green figure stood in front of the tofu.

Wow. , it looked like it was not as tall as me.

I quickly stopped my thoughts, but unexpectedly, the immortal boy dressed in dark green asked:

"Are you Huo Qing?"

……Okay, great.

At least I know that this person who looks lower than me is definitely an immortal - I abandoned this name when I died in battle 500 years ago, and now I can only learn from the Qianyan Army in the ancient books of Qun Yu Pavilion I found it on the list of coaches.

That place is not accessible to anyone who wants to.

From my experience, anyone who is over 150 years old has either violated a taboo or is not a mortal.

"right."

I looked up and met his burning eyes.

"That...well, the Rishi was a very amazing Yaksha, who led us to the last moment."

Of course I know what he wants to ask. I can tell a lot of things just by looking at him.

"So, why are you looking for me?"

??"Is such that! balabala……"

??Ah Shao is truly worthy of you. What can be explained clearly in about 300 words has been expanded to about 5,000 words.

??"In short, I want to ask about the emperor's whereabouts, right?"

??"Uh-huh!"A Shao nodded crazily.

??"……No comment"

??I gritted my teeth and swallowed the"Tsk" I was about to say,"Just tell me if you have seen the emperor recently!"

??The immortal frowned, obviously very dissatisfied with my words

??"Great Sage of Conquering Demons, my two friends don’t pay much attention to what they say, so please bear with me."

??Oh, peacemakers are really handy sometimes.

Now that we have talked about this, the other party doesn’t seem to be very good at dealing with it.

??"Strangely enough, there has been no sign of the emperor in recent days."

??Strange, I haven't even seen the protector Yaksha. The credibility of Bernin's words has increased by one point.

??

??It was getting dark. Although the three of us had no problem traveling at night, Ah Shao still insisted on taking a rest.

??Since that incident, Ah Shao no longer needs to rest in a strict sense to recover his strength.

??Regarding her transformation, should I be happy or sad?

??In order to save money, we only booked a larger room, separated by a screen.

??The rustling of the bedding on that side has gradually stopped, replaced by the sound of regular and weak breathing.

??I rolled around in the soft quilt for a long time and still couldn't fall asleep - the environment here is obviously much better than the army camping outside.

??I simply got up and lay next to the window, staring at the moon outside in trance.

??I only worship the emperor because he established Liyue and it is the emperor who protects us. If it were not the emperor who protected Liyue, I would not have respect for him.

??But if the emperor is really just [wear and tear], can the emperor himself still be regarded as an emperor?

??In this case, where should I go, and what should I choose?

??The moon was hollow, so I had to force myself to sink into the quilt and close my eyes.

??It seems to be raining outside. ps: This chapter is written in the first person by Huan Lie.

The reset version of Shenhuo Ember has officially begun. I hope that the logic text will be slightly improved compared to before.
