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

Chapter 85 Wuxiang’s knife



Manyo and the man have been traveling together for several months, and the friendship between them has grown deeper.

"It is said that God's Eye means the sight of God."

"Well, I have this too. But is it necessarily a good thing to be watched by gods?"

"……maybe."

After hearing Manyo's answer, the man said nothing more. He stood on the beach and looked towards the castle tower, the seat of General Raiden.

There is a newly built statue with thousands of hands and hundreds of eyes. The wings on the back of this statue are inlaid with many confiscated eyes of gods.

There are rumors that when a mortal has a strong desire, strong enough to attract the gods to lower their sight, this person will obtain the Eye of God and thus have the power to control the elements.

So if a mortal who has obtained the Eye of God is compared to a house, if the wish is forcibly taken away, it is like the beams of the house being pulled away in an instant, which will only cause the house to collapse.

The statue with thousands of hands and hundreds of eyes is a symbol of depriving mortals of their wishes!

……

"Eye Hunting Order! Everyone who has the Eye of God must hand it in honestly!"

A group of Shogun Ashigaru patrolled everywhere.

"Hey, this way, let's go!"

The man urged Manyo who was in a daze, and the two hurriedly left.

……

One day, the man asked:

"Manyo, did you see it?"

"what?"

"What I have seen and heard along the way. Since the General issued the "Eye Order" and the "Lockdown Order", the entire country's economy has begun to decline. Inazuma Castle is no longer prosperous, and war has begun to break out between Haizhu Island and the shogunate. war."

"This has caused the entire Daozuma people to live in dire straits. Look at the samurai who are confused and irrational after having the Eye of God taken away. Look at the members of the cult who took the opportunity to oppress the civilians. Look at the people who have been displaced because of the war..."

The man said indignantly.

"But, hey," Wanyo sighed, "We are just ronin, we can't change anything?"

"No! We can change! Maybe the two of us can't do anything with our power, but we can gather the power of others to force the general to cancel the "Eye Hunting Order" and the "Lockdown Order."

"But I heard that the General no longer cares about political affairs, and San Fengxing is in charge of Dao Wife, and Tianling Fengxing is the leader among them."

Manyo said while rubbing his chin.

"I understand that there may be someone behind the General's issuance of these orders, but the top priority is to get the General to withdraw the order first."

"As long as the general can change his mind, the fastest way is..."

"What is it?"

Manyo asked confused.

The man did not answer immediately, but instead asked:

"Man'ye, have you ever heard of 'Wu Xiang's One Sword'?"

"Naturally," Wanyo nodded, "That sword can only be seen when the 'God's Punishment' lands. That sword is the ultimate in Raiden General's martial arts and is the strongest symbol of Inazuma."

“The god Haizhuan Island believed in at the time, ‘Haizhuan Great God’, Orobus, was killed by this sword.”

"That's right! This is the power of gods, but if I want to tell you, that sword may not be beyond your reach."

"There will always be creatures on the ground who dare to face the thunder's prestige!"

When the man said these words, his eyes were more determined than ever before, and the Eye of God on his waist also burst out with a dazzling purple light.

But Wanyu only felt worried after hearing this. He felt that except for gods, there was no way humans could block that sword.

When Wanye asked her friend what he wanted, the man didn't answer. He just smiled. He didn't want Wanye to know what he was thinking.

……

Manyo will always remember that day.

That morning, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and Manyo found that the friend who was supposed to be by his side had left, leaving only a letter and the dry-roasted sweetfish being grilled on the charcoal fire.

Man'ye usually had a good schedule and should have woken up early in the morning, but that day he overslept for the first time.

Wanyu realized something. He put away the letter in a panic, took the knife and rushed towards the castle tower with all his strength.

At the castle tower, heavy rain fell.

The man raised his sword and pointed it directly at the high hall, and launched an "imperial duel" towards the executor of the "Eye Hunting Order" - the general of Tian Ling, Kujo Kasura!

"Duel in front of the Emperor": With the consent of General Thunder and Lightning, the two sides engage in a duel. The winner will survive, and the loser will have to take the general's "Wu Xiang's Sword". If the loser cannot take it, he will naturally die. If he can take it, he will die. By doing so, not only would she not have to die, but she could also make a request to General Thunder that she could fulfill.

But since ancient times, no one has been able to take this sword.

The man's move shocked Dao's wife, and almost no one was optimistic about it. However, the man knew that he was just trying to prove to the world that he had the courage to raise his sword upward, so that the people would dare to speak out to their gods - while all this was still possible There's enough time.

The man deliberately lost to Kujo Kasura.

He was seriously injured and stood on the castle tower holding a sword. The wind was strong and the thunder was roaring.

The man's robes rustled in the wind, and in front of him, General Thunder and Lightning stood proudly motionless.

"Sir General, although you are the god of Inazuma, as a citizen, I want to tell you that you are wrong this time! Therefore, I specially let the world see that your sword is invincible!"

The man's tone was calm but with an edge.

"Huh, Wanyu, slow down, slow down, at least let me take the sword before you come back."

There was a bit of worry in the man's heart. He still couldn't let go of his best friend, but there were some things he had to do. Even if he died to awaken everyone's fighting spirit, this was his wish.

General Thunder and Lightning looked expressionless, looking at the man in front of her. She raised the blade indifferently, and a pressure belonging to the devil poured out without reservation.

She didn't speak, but stretched out her hand to cut the air. Thunder eyes appeared above her head, and the sky was filled with thunder.

General Thunderbolt read silently:

"The secret of dreams is one heart."

She drew her sword, "Wu Xiang's sword" cut through the sky, and the magnificent sword light suddenly landed.

The man let out a soft breath, clenched the sword, and used all his strength to activate the Eye of God on his waist. The Eye of God emitted a bright light, but compared with the thunder in the sky, it was undoubtedly the light of fireflies versus the brightness of the bright moon. .

The Thunderbolt General's blade cut across the man's sword and his torso, and the sword was broken and the man was destroyed.

The man smiled and said to the crowd: "You're still here..."

Before he could finish speaking, darkness eroded the boy's consciousness.

At this time, Wan Ye's eyes were red, and a powerful wind element burst out from his body. Faced with the heavy siege, he only had time to take away his friend's broken sword and the dimmed Eye of God...

He did not allow his friend's burning desire to be built into that lifeless statue!

Manyo became a wanted criminal.

After some troubles, Manyo collected his friend's relics and buried them on the mountainside of Shadow Mountain, and inserted his friend's broken sword.

Finally, Manyo sat in front of his friend's grave, accompanied by a white cat. He pulled out the letter his friend had left for him.

\"Manyo, when you read this letter, it means that I have made a decision.\"

\"Please don't come to me. If I succeed, I will naturally come back to you. If I fail...then you don't come to me, but I know in my heart that the winning rate is very slim.\"

\"Knowing that something cannot be done but doing it, isn't this the consciousness a warrior should have?\"

……

\"Xiaobai is very good and smart. You can put it on the street and it will find its own way to survive.\"

……

\"No matter what, please take good care of yourself. You have learned my skill of grilling fish. From now on, you can make dry-roasted sweet fish by yourself.\"

……

\"We are like seagulls, gathering and dispersing. You don't have to be sad about this. Carrying my wishes, continue to travel to distant places that we have never seen before, to experience the scenery we have never seen.\"

……

Manyo came to the place where he first met his friends, which was at the seaside.

"Like a seagull?"

He stared at the noisy seagulls on the beach in front of him.

"Seagull, stop screaming. From today on, I am also a wandering traveler."

……

"Brother Wanyu, let's go to Bubulu to find Qiqi first, and then join her at the Yu Teahouse. Now! I'll give you this skewer of grilled fish. You can eat it while we're walking."

"it is good."

Wanye took the grilled fish that Yaoyao handed to him and took a bite.

"Brother Manyo, is it delicious?"

“Delicious, the taste is just right.”

"Eh?! Brother Wanyu, I forgot to add salt! It tastes so bland..."

Yaoyao looked up and was too sensible to say anything further.

I saw the young man lowering his head, nibbling on the fish in small mouthfuls, with tears streaming down his face.
