When the black wind dissipated, Ningguang immediately cheered up, and after confirming the body of "Emperor Rock King", he waved his arm and ordered: "The emperor is killed, block the audience."

She could feel that this was the biggest crisis in Liyue's history...

...Or perhaps the biggest opportunity she has ever encountered!

​​

Chapter 202 Zhongli Command? I reject!

When the well-trained Qianyan Army blocked all entrances and exits.

On that day, Quan Xing Ningguang announced the bad news of the emperor's assassination.

The corpse of Emperor Rock King was in front of him.

The masses still couldn't believe that the invincible Rock King Emperor just disappeared? Did the Emperor Yan, who ruled Liyue for thousands of years and brought prosperity and stability to Liyue die like this?

They looked at each other in disbelief. In addition to being frightened, they also worried about whether they would be implicated in this incident.

When a **** of a country is assassinated, the first thing that comes to mind is whether it is a hostile act of another country.

It is very likely to cause the anger of the people of Liyue. If a fanatical believer implements the extreme policy of "another mistake, never let it go", none of the foreigners present will be spared.

Xia Xia observed Ying's whereabouts for the first time, and had successfully escaped the siege of the Qianyan Army.

According to the original plot, Ying suspected that the Seven Gods were the enemy who hindered her and her brother, so she was worried about being caught and chose to run away.

I have been informed in advance, and with Mona's help, it must not be a big problem. In the future, I may still encounter force majeure against the "Young Master", the chief executive officer of the Fools, and then carry out her task as the heroine.

And now, Xia Xia also has things he wants to know and do.

In one corner of the square, Xia Xia and Zhong Li were being interrogated by the Qianyan Army.

Zhong Li is a guest secretary of the Hall of Rebirth, a high-end talent registered in the General Affairs Department, so he can easily ask for suspicion.

And Xia Xia was a guest living in Yuheng's mansion, and he happened to be asking about the guard who caught him using Wings of Wind on Yujingtai yesterday.

This time, there is no need for self-evidence, and the suspicion is temporarily cleared.

After registration, the two were able to leave.

Looking at Ningguang in the center of the square, he thought about whether to hand over Qin's letter while he was now, but he thought about it.

Going now, I am afraid that it is very likely to be regarded as a Mond spy, and it will be very troublesome to explain... Anyway, the mission on Ying's side is going normally, and there will definitely be opportunities in the future.

The next step is to find a way to communicate with Mr. Zhongli in depth.

But he never thought about it. Before he opened his mouth, Zhong Li sent an invitation: "Today the emperor was killed, it is not appropriate to drink alcohol. Would you like to have a cup of tea together?"

Speaking of the death of the emperor, he still looks a little regretful... It's just that his dull face really can't set off his acting skills.

It is said that it is an invitation, but the courage it shows makes it impossible to refuse.

Xia Xia nodded with a smile: "I'm very happy, there are many things I want to ask Mr.

The two of them knew it well, their front and back feet descended from the stone steps.

Leaving Yujingtai, crossed Langfang Bridge, and came to Feiyunpo.

The news of the emperor's murder blew into thousands of households like the wind, and all of a sudden it became quiet.

You can even hear the cries of children on the street, and many vendors have no intention of running their business, closing their stalls hastily.

"The departure of the emperor may make Liyue sad for a long time." Xia Xia was moved, and deliberately used "leave" instead of "pass away" or "assassination".

"People's sadness may last longer than expected, but for Liyue, it's only a short moment." Zhongli did not have any mood swings, he was polite, and spoke in a eloquent manner.

Xia Tian took out two silver moras and bought a candy from the vendor who was about to close the stall.

He walked to the crying child on the roadside, peeled off the candy and handed it over.

The child didn't take the candy, his eyes were full of tears, his vision was so blurry that he couldn't see the big brother's appearance, sobbing sadly: "Is the emperor really dead?"

Xia Xia smiled and comforted: "How could the great emperor die? He just wanted to be lazy and wanted to leave for a while."

In this way, the child timidly took the candy and cried, "Really? Will the emperor come back?"

"Well, I will be back." Xia Xia felt that his words were not convincing enough, so he invited Zhong Li to confirm: "Mr. Zhong Li, do you think Emperor Yan Wang will come back?"

"The emperor is the foundation of Liyue. No matter what era, the past will not change." Zhongli also walked in and fondly touched the little girl's hair: "As long as Liyue continues to exist, the emperor will not change. disappear."

The little girl could only understand half of Zhong Li's words, wiped away her tears and clenched her fists: "I will definitely protect Liyue and wait for the emperor to come back!"

This is just a trivial episode.

All the famous things in the sea are pure and fresh, like the bright moon, precious and sweet.

[Xinyuexuan] Located in Feiyunpo, it is the most famous "moon" restaurant in Liyuegang.

From the fish-shaped signboard at the gate, it can be seen that this is the most authentic restaurant in Quanliyuegang, focusing on seafood "moon dishes".

As an authentic moon restaurant, Xinyuexuan dishes use pure seafood as the bone and are spread with light broth to maximize the freshness and sweetness of seafood. It is a must-see for seafood lovers.

However, due to the limited number of daily reception tables at Xinyuexuan, if you want to dine in at Xinyuexuan, you must book at least three months in advance, so if you want to taste the top seafood in Liyue, a take-out service may be a better choice.

It's such a difficult place to book, Zhong Li actually led Xia Tian to the most luxurious seat.

And no one stopped him, he seemed to be a regular customer of Diamond VIP.

Looking at the decorations of gold paint, mahogany, or silver stone along the way, I only feel that Liyue is a good place for rich people in summer.

Zhong Li doesn't like to eat seafood, but he occasionally chooses to come here for the sake of this elegant room.

With ancient style and ancient charm, there are chessboards, guzheng, and top tea sets for brewing good tea.

Take a spoonful of the finest "Moon Sea Tea" and boil the water over a charcoal fire, the fragrance fills the house instantly.

His skilled craftsmanship keeps Xia's eyes fixed, and the stains are amazed.

When the tea is ready, fill it with a small cup and move it to the summer.

The two of them knew very well that Zhongli would no longer be a swindler, and he didn't need to introduce any more. He said bluntly, "I feel the breath of an old friend in you, is that correct?"

"Probably." Xia Xia possessed Wendy's "Heart of God", so naturally he never thought that he could hide "Zhongli" from the King of Rock.

It's just that the heart of the gods is clearly the authority of the seven gods to rule, but after Xia Xia gets it, it can neither summon the wind element nor influence Mond.

I took a loneliness and wanted to return it several times, but I couldn't find the fish god.

Seemingly recalling memories, Zhong Li chuckled lightly: "That alcoholic who has nothing to do with Fengya... How are you doing lately?"

"It should be pretty good." Xia Tian said truthfully: "But in fact, I haven't seen it for a while."

About half a month, maybe for Zhong Li, it's just a flick of a finger.

Zhong Li held the hot tea lightly, sniffed the aroma of the tea, and took a sip: "You came to Liyue, but what is his request?"

"I came here to find two friends, Ying and Paimon." Xia Xia shook his head, then explained further: "It has nothing to do with him, definitely not a bad guy like a spy."

Half joking, in case Ying and Paimon misunderstood the script, let them explain it first.

"Since that drunkard can put the heart of God in your hands, he must trust you very much." Zhong Li raised his eyes and looked directly into Xia Xia's eyes: "Of course I will also believe in you... Although that person is full of fakes words, but He has always been very accurate in seeing people."

"As for the friend you mentioned... Ying, it sounds like a girl's name." Zhong Li played with the earring with his index finger, thoughtfully.

Speaking of Ying, Xia Xia brought her own smile: "Well, a very reliable girl, recently went on a journey to find her brother."

"Reliable..." The corner of Zhong Li's mouth smiled, as if he had a new plan: "I can find a chance to meet you."

This smile is a bit strange, and it makes Xia Xia ponder deeply... It's not because of my words that Zhong Li asked Ying to help prepare the "Send the Celestial Ceremony", right?

That's true, summer has become the hero of the shrinking of the world line.

The chat time is over soon, it's time to get to the point.

Zhongli put away his smile and became serious: "You seem to have something to do with me?"

An air of arrogance and self-righteousness, knowing that there is no hostility, still caused Xia Xia's back to shiver: "It's true that I have some confusion in my heart and want to get rid of my doubts."

Zhong Li interrupted first: "Before that, I want to ask, do you know what I want to do?"

"Because my girlfriend is an astrologer, I probably guessed a little." Xia Xia thought of a good reason, but with Mona's astrology level, she probably couldn't be considered a creature of the level of Lord Yan.

After receiving a positive answer, Zhong Li did not hesitate to say the reason why he invited Xia Xia to come here: "Then pardon me for being honest... I want you not to interfere in Liyue's affairs!"

I want you not to interfere in Liyue's affairs.

There is no smile, it is a request and an order.

In the words and in the tone, there was no option for Xia Xia to refuse.

An inexplicable sense of oppression struck, Xia Tian swallowed his saliva, picked up a small teacup and drank it.

Tea is like wine, giving you the courage to ask in detail: "Can I ask why? Even if I intervene, it shouldn't spoil your plan."

Just like in Mond, Xia squeezed into the protagonist's team and gave proper help, which not only saved time, but also reduced the danger.

And Liyue's business is simpler, it is nothing more than doing a ritual to send immortals, all of which are errands such as collecting things.

Wouldn't it be nice to have one more person to help out faster and better?

But Zhong Li chose to refuse: "I don't know where you come from, but I can feel that you are a special person."

He expressed his concerns: "I'm not sure what effect your intervention will cause, maybe it will be better, maybe it will be worse..."

"These unstable factors may lead to the derailment of the plan. I don't want to face such randomness." Zhong Li's words were firm.

This is a plan that he has considered for a long time, possibly for decades, before he decides to implement it.

As Emperor Yanwang, he wants to completely entrust Liyue to the hands of "people", as Yuheng Xingkeqing expects, to become "Liyue ruled by people".

But first of all, it must be confirmed that Liyue Qixing and Liyue people have this ability, so they plan to create a disaster to test.

Facing Zhong Li's request, Xia Xia hesitated: "Can I refuse?"

​​

Chapter 203 "Deal" with the Rock God

Don't interfere in Liyue's affairs, let the people of Liyue rely on their own strength to face challenges.

In terms of general rationality, this requirement is reasonable and achievable, but from the perspective of personal sensibility, summer cannot choose to avoid it.

If all goes well, then everything will be fine.

But in case there is such a little deviation... that kind of case, summer will never allow it to exist.

"It's impossible for me to look at my friend in danger and ignore it." Of course he wasn't arrogant enough to think that he could control the battle or solve the challenges facing Liyue alone.

But at least you should be with them, at least stand in front of them.

When the tea in the cup was empty, Zhong Li added another cup.

Hold the bottom of the cup with both hands, rub your thumbs back and forth, and feel the roundness of the porcelain.

"I can guarantee that no one will be hurt in the disaster... So I hope you don't interfere." His words were noncommittal.

This is the tone of the second request, there is no third time... If Xia Xia refuses again, as the emperor, it is very likely that he will choose another way, so that Xia Xia has no chance to intervene.

No one was hurt, this is the guarantee given by Zhongli.

Xia Xia is quite suspicious of this emperor's common sense. Does he really understand what the standard of harm is for mortals?

But the emperor's attitude is firm, and there is no need for too much head-to-head confrontation at this time.

Another way of thinking, Xia Tian smiled: "Since the emperor said so, how else can I choose, of course I agree."

The contract is very important for the emperor and for Liyue... But for the summer, it is far less than the safety of friends.

If there is an accident at that time, even if the contract is broken, even if you have to face this **** who has stood at the top of Liyue for thousands of years, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Temporarily choosing to accept this request is a bit of a grievance, and I have to get something back.

"Emperor Yanwang is famous for his "contract", so can I regard this as a kind of contract between you and me? ' Summer asked tentatively.

As the God of Contract, Zhong Li nodded affirmatively: "Naturally, the agreement between the two parties is the most direct and primitive contract."

"The rules of the transaction are contracts, and the rules are fair... This is what the emperor taught Liyue thousands of years ago..." Xia Xia was a little strong because of the unpleasant compromise just now: "If our agreement is a contract, then fairness is necessary. make up?"

"Unfair contracts cannot exist." Zhong Li put on a new cup of tea and heated the charcoal fire.

This is an opportunity given by God, and there is no reason to pry open Lord Yan's mouth.
