Genshin Impact: The Vision of Gods Shines Again

...

"Miss Keqing, do you think what the crew member said is true or false?"

"If we're just guessing, I think we should wait until Captain Beidou wakes up before making any decisions."

"It seems that this guy is quite trusted by Miss Keqing. Perhaps, Miss Keqing is unwilling to believe that he is such a hypocrite."

“Tianquan, he has never done anything to harm Liyue.”

“We haven’t done this before, but that doesn’t mean we won’t now. If Miss Keqing is willing, we can set up a trap. Regardless of whether he harmed the captain or not, we can trick him a little and find out whether he is a good person or a bad person.”

"but..."

“Miss Keqing, if you agree, I will support you in becoming the next Yuheng Star. Besides... don't you have confidence in him?”

"...Tianquan, what should I do?"

...

"Why? Why did you lie to me!"

"So you don't believe me either?"

"Believe? Everyone at Yujingtai saw you try to kill that witness, you despicable and utterly hypocritical bastard!"

"Despicable and hypocritical? So that's what you think."

...

"Captain Beidou, you're finally awake. The murderer who killed you... is dead."

"Dead. I didn't expect the Seven Stars of Liyue to act so quickly and actually take care of that sea beast."

“Haye?”

"Hey? Didn't you say you killed that sea monster? Oh right, what about that kid Mu Xian? I still need to thank him; I should treat him to a big meal..."

Memories flashed through her mind, but when they ended, Keqing found herself standing in front of a stone sculpture.

The stone carving is still much the same as it was five years ago, but the character "闲" (leisure) carved on it has become much blurry.

Touching the words on it, my vision gradually became misty.

"sorry."

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”

Her voice trembled as her purple figure slid down the stone carving.

Chapter 8 The Big Sparrow in Qiqi's Eyes

As soon as Mu Xian opened her eyes, she saw a refined man with light blue hair standing by the window, a white snake coiled around his slender neck, and faint noises coming from outside the window.

Looking around, I saw an unfamiliar room filled with a faint scent of herbs.

It seems to smell like misty flowers.

A head suddenly popped out from the side, its eyes staring blankly at Mu Xian.

I remember you~

The little girl didn't seem to have the liveliness expected of her age. She stared at Mu Xian and spoke each word with great seriousness.

"Big Sparrow, you're back~"

The girl reached out her pale little hands to pinch Mu Xian's cheek, but Mu Xian dodged to the side.

"Eh~"

The girl turned her head, seemingly puzzled by Mu Xian's actions, and was about to climb onto Mu Xian's bed.

"Qiqi, the patient is resting."

The refined-looking man noticed the commotion inside and said, "Come down quickly."

"Mr. Bai~".

Qi Qi stopped what she was doing and pointed at Mu Xian on the bed: "Da Tuan Que is back~"

As she spoke, she went over to hug Mu Xian.

"Little Wooden Head!"

The sound was extremely penetrating, traveling from outside into the house.

Upon hearing the sound, Qiqi froze, turned her large head to look outside, then turned back to look at Mu Xian, and then, as if by reflex, ran to a cabinet in the corner of the room to hide.

Just as Qiqi closed the cabinet, a dark figure darted into the room and grabbed Mu Xian by the shoulders.

"Little Wood, I've been waiting for you for so long, you're finally awake."

"Does your body hurt? Does anything feel uncomfortable?"

Hu Tao had a strong grip, which made Mu Xian's shoulder ache.

Just as Mu Xian was about to pull open the walnut, a cough came, along with a strange sound.

"Cough cough."

"Tch, it's this guy?"

A cough stopped Hu Tao from asking a series of questions. Turning around in the direction of the sound, she saw the refined-looking man.

"Bai Shu, is Xiao Mutou alright?"

“Master Hu, you’ve arrived just in time. I don’t think I’ve seen this child at Qingce Manor before.”

"Little Wood is my personal nickname. Bai Shu can call him Hu Muxuan."

"Hu Muxuan... all I can say is that he's very lucky."

Bai Shu said, "If it had been any later, the filth would have seeped into my bones, and there would have been nothing I could do."

"You're really lucky, you almost died."

The white snake beside Bai Zhu's neck spoke human language, a bizarre scene that everyone took for granted.

"Chang Sheng, don't say such things carelessly."

After saying that, perhaps feeling that Hu Tao didn't believe him, Bai Shu walked to the bedside and lifted Mu Xian's shirt.

A dark purple line appeared on her once fair abdomen, which looked particularly disgusting and gruesome.

Walnut seemed to be disgusted by the pattern and quickly pulled her shirt back up.

"Little wooden thing, are you about to die?"

Hu Tao looked at Mu Xian and said, "Don't worry, little Mu, you are my personal employee. I will personally take care of your funeral and make it a beautiful affair."

"Well, Master Hu, it's not just that."

Bai Shu said, "I didn't bring any extra medicinal herbs with me when I came to Qingce Manor. I can only temporarily suppress the filth in Hu Muxuan's body."

"To completely cure it, we still need one more main ingredient."

"What if we don't have the main ingredient?" Mu Xian asked, looking up.

"Filth is like a river; if you only block it and don't dredge it, it will eventually collapse completely."

Bai Shu looked at Mu Xian and slowly said, "In your current state, you can probably only last for about three days."

"Enjoy these three days to the fullest," Changsheng added.

Upon hearing this, Mu Xian frowned. Was he really going to die, and it would take him three more days?

"How can it only be three days! Preparing for a funeral takes much longer than three days."

Hu Tao, who was standing nearby, patted Mu Xian on the shoulder and said, "Little Mu Xian, you can't fall down so soon."

"No matter how fast I act, I don't have time to prepare your funeral."

"You don't want to be buried in the ground by me so easily, do you?"

Mu Xian turned his head away, his expression a mixture of impatience and helplessness.

He didn't want to argue with Hu Tao about these things; he just wanted to quietly wait to die.

"Is the giant magpie going to die?"

A small figure darted out from the cabinet, and the moment Qiqi appeared, the hall master was immediately drawn to her.

As if by accident, yet also as if she were thinking it was possible, Hu Tao quietly moved toward Qi Qi.

Qi Qi seemed not to see Hu Tao, her big eyes fixed on Bai Shu.

"Mr. Bai~"

“I know Qiqi.”

Bai Shu said, "I will heal him."

"Hmm~"

Qi Qi nodded and looked at Mu Xian: "Big Sparrow~, take good care of yourself~"

"I'll help you gather herbs~"

As soon as she finished speaking, Hu Tao behind Qi Qi paused for a moment, then pounced on Qi Qi at an even faster speed.

It was less of a pounce and more of a hug.

The familiar temperature made Qiqi realize what had happened, and her small body stiffened abruptly.

"We've caught Qiqi!"

Hu Tao chuckled behind her, her laughter malicious, and whispered in Qi Qi's ear, "This time I'm going to bury Qi Qi."

Qi Qi seemed frightened and looked at Bai Shu for help, her tone becoming much more anxious.

"Mr. Bai~"

"Why are you bothering Qiqi again?" Changsheng asked urgently.

"Okay, don't scare Qiqi."

Bai Zhu said helplessly, "Mu Xuan needs some special main ingredients, which even Bu Bu Lu does not have in reserve. We will need to prepare the main ingredients within three days."
