People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 141: Conversation with Zhongli

Chapter 141 Conversation with Zhongli
".At that time, in Liyue, there were great demons invading the sea, and evil dragons lurking in the mountains."

".Emperor Yan Wang summoned all the immortals to restore a bright and clear world to the world——"

"——Rumor has it that the Emperor said this when he was going to war."

The setting sun was blocked by the outline of the building, and the warm yellow light cast several shadows of various shapes on the screen behind the storyteller.

Tian Tiezui, dressed in a gray and white robe, shook the folding fan in his hand and told the ancient legend about "Emperor Rock King" with an excited expression.

Even though it was a classic story that was well-known to everyone and had been passed down for thousands of years, there were still many listeners of different ages gathered around the round table in the audience.

From the elderly tea drinkers with hunched backs and white hair,

To the middle-aged workers who are strong and energetic,

There were even a few children with shining eyes and full of admiration.
From their focused expressions, even outsiders who had just arrived in Liyue could easily perceive the Liyue people's heartfelt reverence for the Geo King.

Lin Feng just stood silently in the stands.
Just like an ordinary resident who happened to pass by but was attracted by the story, he quietly experienced Liyue's rich history of 3,700 years.

The lanterns in front of the teahouse suddenly lit up, and time passed quietly under the storyteller's superb skills.

In the past, Lin Feng, who had never experienced the teahouse era, experienced the most authentic storytelling in Liyue Harbor.

In such a scene, the story itself becomes a secondary factor.

The storyteller's voice intonation, narrative rhythm, body movements, and infectious enthusiasm.
Unconsciously, the book can capture the audience's attention, allowing them to temporarily escape from their busy work and life and enter the mysterious world that only exists in books.

——No wonder Zhongli likes to come here to listen to books, Tian Tiezui is indeed quite good.

While listening to the book, he felt a little bit high.

I plan to visit more often when I have free time in the future.

Seeing that a storytelling session finally came to an end, it was already getting late.

The spectators all stood up and planned to go home to light a fire and cook.

Tian Tiezui on the stage also cleared his throat, picked up the teacup, and took two gulps of tea. Then he looked up at the old customer in front of him and asked with a smile:
"Brother Zhongli, I have heard that you are knowledgeable and well-educated. I wonder what you think of my passage from Liyue Spring and Autumn Annals?"

“It’s really wonderful.”

The young man put down the teacup in his hand, nodded, and praised sincerely.

"But, according to Brother Tian, ​​the Rock King Emperor once transformed into a goddess and went on tour. I wonder where she came from and why?"

"This is uh, not impossible"

Tian Tiezui, who had been eloquent just now, looked embarrassed as if he was stuck when he heard this.

"I see."

Zhongli paused, as if he understood something.

"——The ancient secrets are no longer tangible, but the scene Brother Tian described is quite interesting."

He took a sip of tea and didn't seem to be taking it seriously.

Hearing this, the embarrassed storyteller suddenly felt relieved.

He knew that his brother Zhongli was a famous and learned man. If he got serious about it, he would not be able to find the origin of the folk legend he had heard.

Tian Tiezui shook his head, and seeing a handsome young man standing next to Zhongli, he quickly changed the subject and said, "Brother Zhongli, when we were telling the story just now, I saw you paying attention to this little brother next to you."

"I see that this young man is also a very talented person, not an ordinary person can compare to him. Could he be a descendant of your family?"

"Why don't you tell me so I can say hello when we meet next time."

"."

Zhongli, who was drinking tea, paused.
After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said:

"Brother Tian, ​​you are embarrassing me. This young man is not someone's descendant."

"——If you think about it, he actually did me a big favor."

"If you meet Brother Tian in the future, just treat him as an old friend of mine."

When Tian Tiezui heard this, although he was a little curious about why Zhongli called this little brother who was only a few years older than him "old friend", he still nodded and said:
"Well, it's rare for someone to receive such a high evaluation from you. I think this little brother must be a rare talent—"

"Then I'll keep it in mind. I won't neglect this young man when we meet next time."

Tian Tiezui smiled at the young man beside Zhongli, bowed slightly, and made a note of this hidden guest in his heart.

After saying goodbye to Tian Tiezui, Zhongli naturally invited Lin Feng beside him to join him.

Lin Feng was already curious about Liyue's Holy Lord who had existed for at least six thousand years, and he couldn't think of any reason to refuse.

Walking beside Zhongli,

After close contact, he discovered that the accumulation of years was also extremely important to a god.

When in Xumi, no matter how Nashida hid, as long as Lin Feng wanted to look for her, he could always find that hint of discord among the crowd.

After all, gods are essentially very different from ordinary humans. No matter how hidden they are, if they are among the crowd, they will be as conspicuous as torches in the dark.

But Zhongli beside him was just like an ordinary person. Apart from his handsome appearance and extraordinary demeanor, there was no difference between him and ordinary people.

During these extremely long years, the Emperor seemed to have completely integrated into the land of Liyue. No matter the mountains, rocks, plants, birds or beasts, as long as he wanted, he seemed to be able to blend in seamlessly.

Feeling that he still had some things that needed to be carefully experienced over time, Lin Feng said:

"I came to Liyue this time without following the formal procedure of the Seven Gods meeting to submit a visiting card. I came uninvited, and I hope the Rock God will forgive me."

Although the specific process of the meeting of the Seven Gods two thousand years ago has been lost,
But based on the few words left in the Xumi records, Lin Feng could also infer that the visit of the gods at that time should have been a very formal act.

Although it is very common for gods to visit each other nowadays, he still said something polite out of courtesy.

——Of course, if it was some random guy from Mond Street, he would definitely not care about this.

"My friend, don't worry. Xumi and Liyue have been neighboring countries since ancient times."

"It is Liyue's fault that the neighboring country did not send an envoy to congratulate the new god when he took office."

Zhongli paused.

"——As for the cumbersome formalities of a visit from the gods, now apart from me and an old friend, I'm afraid no one else can remember it, so it's better not to mention it."

The Emperor shook his head and responded to his remarks with an attitude that seemed somewhat "cautious" in Lin Feng's opinion.
