Genshin Impact: Zhongli discovered that he was stealing tributes at the beginning

"Hey! If you have nothing to do, don't wander around here. If you can't continue to catch your fish, it makes me annoyed."

In the large kitchen downstairs at the top of Wangshu Inn, Yan Xiao watched Jiang Xue pace back, mumbling "Are you here yet?" and "Why haven't you come yet?".

Jiang Xue heard Yan Xiao's complaint and replied helplessly: "I know you are in a hurry, but I am more anxious than you."

"Oh? What's going on? We've known each other for so long, let me give you a reference."

Yan Xiao had been probing Jiang Xue for the past few days. Seeing that he finally wanted to speak today, he quickly asked.

"You know, after that battle, I don't want to fight anymore."

"I know, you even hide the Eye of God and don't use it anymore."

"Okay, don't talk about it anymore. In fact, I have had something in my heart these past few days. I feel that someone will come over and inherit what I have learned throughout my life, and will also help me find the answer to that question."

"who is it?!"

"I don't know who it was, but I felt like he was coming a few days ago, but suddenly there was no trace."

"Is that so? Then what are you going to do?"

"Wait."

.....

Yan Xiao saw Jiang Xue fell silent and didn't disturb him anymore. Although his story is also very exciting. After going through ups and downs, he finally gave up being a thief and chose a golden basin to wash his hands and became the chef of Wangshu Inn. But after learning about Jiang Xue's past, he knew what it meant to be bold!

......

Many years ago, there was a pair of brothers who lived in an unknown mountain gate. They learned martial arts since childhood and were inspired to eliminate demons and defend the Tao. When they left the mountain gate, they walked out of the mountain gate together, hoping to realize their own vision.

However, after they participated in the battle, they discovered that the monsters were ferocious and cruel, and they were far from their opponents with their strength.

So they decided to go to Mount Aozang to search for immortality.

On the way to Mount Aozang, they saw the suffering of all sentient beings. Many unarmed people were killed by monsters. However, they could only protect themselves and could not lend a helping hand.

Once, they watched several children being eaten alive by a monster several meters high. The junior brother couldn't help but wanted to draw his sword and kill him, but the senior brother stopped him firmly.

The monster swaggered away after eating the person.

"Senior brother! Why did you stop me?! Have you forgotten our original oath?!"

The junior brother stared at the senior brother with red eyes.

"I know...we said we would punish evil and promote good, and protect the world."

"But this monster obviously drank Chi's blood. It's not like you haven't read the ancient books in Shanmen. Monsters that drink Chi's blood are very powerful. We are no match at all. I can't see you die in vain!"

The senior brother whispered bitterly, his face was painful, and he was resentful in his heart as to why he did not have the strong power to remove the demon.

"what!"

The junior brother roared, venting the anger in his heart, and punched the rock next to him. The rock was instantly covered with blood. He shouted angrily to the sky: "As long as I don't die, I swear to kill all the monsters in the world!"

......

They came to the foot of Mount Aozang and looked up. This mountain peak reached into the clouds, with undulating peaks, magnificent and majestic.

Mount Okura is intimidating due to its steepness and height. There are crisscrossing canyons and steep cliffs between the mountains. The rugged mountain roads are winding, steep and slippery. Only those with great patience and courage can reach the top of the mountain.

But this couldn't stop the two brothers. They supported each other and finally climbed Mount Aozang.

However, after groping for half a month on the mountain, the two brothers found no trace of the immortal at all. Just when they were discouraged and wanted to give up, a secret book of the immortal family appeared at their feet, and they picked it up with joy. Secrets, did not notice a stag silently glanced at them in the distance and then left.

They opened the secret book and found that the content inside was much more profound than before in the mountain gate.

"Hahaha, senior brother, it seems that we have succeeded in impressing the immortals. What the masters in the mountain gate taught us before, we could barely defeat the Qiuqiu people."

"Ahem, you can't say bad things about the master behind his back. Is it easy for him? It's easy for him to grow three-quarters of an acre of grain. Before we can exchange it for money to support him in old age, it was finished by the two of us. That's why we were kicked out of the mountain gate. .”

"Ah? Didn't we start training?"

"You, why don't you think about it carefully? Can our three-legged cat be called a master with his kung fu?"

"That's it, senior brother, I understand."

The junior brother scratched his head and continued to read the secret book. Suddenly he found a problem and reminded the senior brother.

"Senior brother, look, there is a hint here."

The senior brother followed the text pointed by the junior brother's finger and read:

"Only those who carry the Eye of God can exert the maximum power of the techniques in this secret book."

"None of us have the Eye of God, forget it, let's practice hard here first."

"Okay, senior brother."

……

Spring passes, autumn comes, cold comes and summer comes, and the years pass by in a hurry.

The two brothers studied the exercises in the secret book assiduously. No matter it was windy or rainy, they insisted on getting up early every day to practice the exercises.

They follow the exercises with extremely high self-discipline to improve their martial arts step by step. Although their bodies will feel tired from practicing the exercises, they always devote themselves to it without any regrets.

Because the scene of children being eaten by monsters that day was still vivid in their minds, they did not forget their original intention and vowed to eliminate monsters and defend the law!

In the process of practicing, the brothers supervise and encourage each other, and often compete with each other to prove their proficiency in the techniques.

They also erected a stone tablet on the mountain with the inscription:

My junior brother and I have been practicing martial arts since we were young, and we are motivated to eliminate demons and defend the Tao. But if you want to protect the world, it is not easy without the help of God's eyes. My junior brother and I are cultivating here quietly. We want to seek the eyes of God and set up this monument to bear witness.

……

Maybe they were a little bored after staying in the mountains for too long, or maybe it was because they hadn't obtained the Eye of God for a long time that they became restless and had no intention of practicing.

"Brother, let's go for a walk. With our current martial arts skills, if we encounter that monster again, we will definitely crush it to ashes."

"Okay, bring the exercises with you. We still can't relax too much and keep practicing."

So, the two brothers packed their things and walked down the mountain with each carrying a suitcase. A stag and a crane stood on a high place to watch them leave.

"Zie Yue, I think you care about them, why don't you accept them as your apprentices?"

"No, they are not suitable to be my apprentices, and they are destined to have a disaster, and they can only survive on their own."

"It's up to you. Hey, this girl Gan Yu has basically stopped coming back to Aozang Mountain to visit me since she went to Liyue Port. Do you think I should accept another apprentice?"

……

After the two brothers walked out of Aozang Mountain, they walked southeast. If they encountered any injustice on the way, they would use their swords to fight against it. If they encountered monsters, they would kill them with their swords regardless of the reason. Finally, they took a ferry and arrived at Guyun Pavilion.

Guyun Pavilion is surrounded by the sea and isolated from people. It is said that it was formed by the rock spear thrown by the King of Rock when he killed the enemy.

The scenery of Guyun Pavilion is very different in the morning and at night.

Guyun Pavilion in the early morning will be surrounded by a vast expanse of clouds and mist, as if you are in a fairyland. The mist-shrouded scenery gives people a mysterious and peaceful feeling.

At night, Guyun Pavilion becomes extremely beautiful. The moon rises and reflects on the sea, reflecting a silvery light. The sea breeze blows by, bringing bursts of coolness, and the sky is full of stars twinkling like bright lights, adding a sense of mystery and romance to Guyun Pavilion.

During the day, from the heights of Guyun Pavilion, you can see the boundless ocean. The sea surface is sparkling and as calm as a mirror.

The distant horizon merges into one under the blue sky, as if we have reached the end of heaven and earth. The sea breeze blows gently on the face, which is enough to make people feel relaxed and happy, suddenly enlightened.

"Senior brother, the scenery here is very nice, how about we practice here."

"Okay, this is still the place where the Emperor fought. If we practice here, maybe he will notice us and give us his divine eyes."

"Yes. But senior brother, what we did is a good thing. If I were Prince Yan, I would have given each of us the Eye of God."

"Shut up! Your Majesty the Emperor has your own considerations, and you must not disrespect the gods!"

The senior brother warned sternly.

So they chose to practice in Guyun Pavilion just like in Aozang Mountain, and also erected a stone tablet with almost the same inscription as the stone tablet erected in Aozang Mountain.

Inscription: My senior brother and I have been practicing martial arts since we were young, and we are inspired to eliminate demons and defend the Tao. But if you want to protect the world, it is not easy without the help of God's eyes. My senior brother and I are cultivating here quietly, hoping to seek the eyes of God, and we set up this monument as a proof.

One day, a storm at sea swept through Guyun Pavilion and disrupted the daily practice of the two brothers.

"Junior brother, let's go! We need to find a place to hide for a while."

The storm began to come, with dark clouds and thunder and lightning, breaking the tranquility of the sky. The thunder rumbled and was deafening, the sky was pierced by bright light amid the lightning and thunder. The raindrops shot down like arrows, and the majestic rain flooded the earth.

High winds toppled fragile buildings, uprooted trees and scattered splintered branches and leaves.

The storm brought turmoil and chaos. The brothers hid safely behind the solid rocks, but they smelled a faint smell of blood in the air, which made them nervous instantly. "Crack", footsteps sounded, Something is approaching! Is it a human? Or a monster? !

The two brothers looked at the direction of the sound of footsteps with vigilance. They each drew their swords and stood ready.

"Boom!" A violent electric light struck down, and the surrounding scene was illuminated for an instant, revealing the true identity of the owner who made the footsteps.

"It's it!"
