Chapter 179: Zhongli's Contract
Several people were stunned for a while when they looked at Lin Yan, and the person who spoke first was Lin Yan.
"Zhongli, why do you want to give the heart of God to the Ice God?" He gasped and walked forward and asked Zhongli in a questioning tone.
"Yes, I also want to know that if it is defined by the rules of [Contract], then there should be no value in this world that can compare to the Heart of God, right?" Paimon and Lin Yan had the same doubts, but soon she realized something, "Hey?! Lin Yan actually knew that Zhongli was the Emperor of the Rock King?"
Indeed, from the beginning, Lin Yan did not prepare with them [See Xiandianyi], so he should not know Zhongli's identity. Even she and Ying just knew about it.
Zhongli gave the heart of God to the lady and asked her to take it back and hand it over to the Queen of Ice. Ying and the others were also extremely surprised. Last time at Mond, the lady directly robbed Wendy's heart of God. As a result, when he arrived in Liyue, Zhongli actually gave the heart of God to her for free, and said that this was the [contract] he signed with the God of Ice.
Lin Yan couldn't understand why Zhongli did this. Last time Wendy's heart of god was stolen because of his negligence. This time, he would definitely not let Zhongli's heart of god be taken away, unless Zhongli himself must give it to him.
"I said that it was my agreement with the Queen of Ice. The contract has been completed. As the god of contract, I must not violate the rules I set." Faced with the two of them's doubts, Zhongli replied in a plain tone.
It is worth mentioning that although Zhongli had handed over the Heart of God to the Lady, before this, the young master, who was also the executive officer of the fool, knew nothing about this. If he knew from the beginning that Zhongli was Morax, there would be no need to spend so much effort to find the magic of the Immortal Ancestor.
If he didn't succeed, he even fought with Lin Yan. The ending was that he had a crushing defeat and used up the divine power given to him by the Queen of Ice.
The executives have been performing various dangerous tasks outside all year round. The divine power given by the Ice God Queen is their last method. When they encounter a great opponent, as long as they are not the other six gods who are in power in the seven world, they will definitely be able to escape unstoppable.
This time, the young master used up the divine power given by the Ice Queen, so he could only wait until the day when he returned to the winter to let the Ice Queen replenish his divine power again.
However, what made him most angry was Zhongli. Although Morax was right beside him, he spent so much effort and did not succeed in the end. He was even so stupid that he asked Zhongli to find a way to help him find Morax, which made him feel like he was riding on the back of a donkey and looking for a donkey.
This may be the only world where Dadalia is injured.
......
"I don't understand what the Ice God said to you, and you actually made you willingly give her the heart of God." Lin Yan was very puzzled by Zhongli's answer. Although he could guess that this should be related to the Ice God's plan to resist the law of heaven, he still couldn't accept it.
"In terms of universal rationality, there is indeed nothing in this world that is more precious than the heart of God. But I am the God of [Contract], and I have signed thousands of [Contracts] through my hands for thousands of years. If a transaction is not profitable, I will never make a move."
"The deal with the Ice God is the [contract to end all contracts] I made at the last moment as the God of Rock. As for the other end of the scale, what kind of chips did the Ice God put on... The answer to this question is in your future journey, and you will answer it yourself."
With almost the same answer as in the game, Zhongli did not tell Lin Yan and the truth, but chose to hide it. This made Lin Yan a little upset because there was not much time to give him to continue to act as he pleased.
After Liyue, he will go to Dao Wife, but he doesn't know the plot of Dao Wife, so he must be careful at that time. The God of Thunder seems not as easy as Wendy and Zhongli. She issued an eye hunting order, as if to recycle all the eyes of God in Dao Wife's territory and inlay them into her statue.
As for what her purpose was, Lin Yan didn't know. Maybe he would only know after going to the rice wife.
Damn, if Mihayou's plot was not so slow... Dawei, I'll be so sad**
"Forget it, I won't ask what kind of contract you have signed with the Ice God. Then can you tell me what the law of heaven is?" Lin Yan could not know the specific plan of the Ice God from Zhongli, so he could only ask another question that only Zhongli knew about it.
What is the law of heaven and who is she? From a clear perspective, the law of heaven is the absolute ruler of this world, and even the seven rulers in the world were born with authority. If the seven gods are gods in the eyes of the world, then the law of heaven is the gods in the eyes of the seven gods, powerful and unattainable.
This is Lin Yan’s understanding of the law of heaven so far, but if that is true, why would the law of heaven personally come and destroy the former Kanria Kingdom? If the law of heaven is really undefeated, why would there be an abyss and why would the God of Ice dare to resist her will?
Although the plot of the game has only progressed by less than one-third, various plots have begun to suggest that Sky Island is not the absolute master of this world.
For example, the Deep Spiral, which was once the highest peak of the Tyvat continent, the peak of the Pinhat Peak, has now become a small island in the waters of the Mond border, where there is a passage with twelve floors and leads directly to the bottom of the world.
In the Genshin Impact version 1.1 activity [The Unreturned Star], the great adventurer Leonard tried to climb the Peak Hat Peak, but ended in failure. Hundreds of years later, the fragments of the Fate in the starry sky actually brought Leonard's will to the Tivat continent, which caused a lot of commotion.
At the end of the plot, the sixth seat of the executive officer of the Fools - [Skies] is thought-provoking.
[The starry sky itself is a huge lie].
From the literal meaning, this sentence means that the starry sky above the head is a false existence, but coincidentally, the background of the last layer of the deep spiral is the starry sky.
There is a false starry sky above the head, but there is a real starry sky at the bottom of the feet. Although this conclusion has not yet been established, it has a basis.
In addition, there are various unknown secrets in this world. The Deep Spiral is just the one that Lin Yan remembers the most. And he is like a frog living at the bottom of a well, knowing nothing about the world outside the well. Only after seeing it in person can he know how wonderful it is.
As for now... Lin Yan wants to ask for some useful information from Zhongli first. If he is willing to say it, it would be great. If he is unwilling to say it, then he can only explore it by himself.
"Sorry, this is also part of the [Contract], so I can't say it." When Zhongli heard Lin Yan say the word "Heavenly Rule", his expression showed a very difficult change, but his answer was not beyond Lin Yan's expectations, that was, he was unwilling to answer his questions.
Lin Yan had asked Wendy before. Although Wendy said a lot of words, she rarely said useful information. When it comes to Zhongli... that is, she doesn't say a word and doesn't intend to talk to you.
"As it said, after you reach the end of your journey, you will be able to uncover all the truth of this world. Although I have existed in the world for more than 6,000 years, what was the world like before these six,000 years? I am afraid no one knows what kind of situation the world was before the birth of the first demon god."
"Same, no one knows how the world was born. You can't do it, I can't do it, even if it's the law of nature. This is the only thing I can tell you. If you can understand the meaning, that's great. If you can't understand it... Then combine it with your future experience to savor it."
A very profound sentence, indeed, as he said, Lin Yan did not understand the meaning of it. However, it seemed that he could not get any useful information from Zhongli's mouth.
He was not disappointed with this result. He had just tried it. Since he really couldn't find anything, there was nothing he could do.
Originally, he wanted to stop the lady from taking the heart of God away, but if he stopped her, Zhongli would probably be unhappy. After all, this was a contract he signed with the God of Ice.
Finally, Lin Yan turned around and left the North Bank. After calling Youla, who was confronting Natia at the door, he returned home.
......
Xiaobai is still sleeping at home, so it hasn't gone out with the two of them just now, and doesn't even know what's going on.
The disaster has been lifted, and next, Liyue Qixing will start preparing the [Send Immortal Disciple] in a few days. As long as the [Send Immortal Disciple] passes, they will completely take over Liyue from Morax. As for the immortals... they will return to Jueyun's seclusion and agree to let Liyue enter the [Era of Man-rule].
This is what Liyue Qixing wants to see. After all, they wanted to completely take charge of Liyue a long time ago. However, the Rock King Emperor was alive before, so they dared not take any action. Now the Rock King Emperor has fallen, and the immortals have also allowed their approach. Of course, they will choose to take over Liyue in full immediately.
Therefore, in addition to Mond, which symbolizes freedom, the seven kingdoms of Tivat also have another [nation ruled by God].
Lin Yan was not interested in [See Xiandianyi], but Ningguang said that he would agree to his request, so he would go there at that time.
Now, the only thing that made him happy was that his reputation in Liyue had reached its peak. Although most of the residents of Liyue Port did not know him, on the way back just now, he heard many people discussing matters about him.
Some children even regarded him as a hero who [Defeated the Big Monster]. Although they had a similar experience in Mond, Lin Yan still felt a little accomplished. I wonder if the wife would be like this when she went to the future.
"What happened to you inside?" After returning home, Youra couldn't help but start asking Lin Yan.
"It's nothing, I just chatted with them for a few words, but unfortunately I didn't ask for the information I wanted." His tone seemed a little regretful, and Lin Yan collapsed directly on the bench in the living room.
"By the way, are you hungry? If you are hungry, I'll make some food for you." Before he could even take a while, Lin Yan supported himself and said. After that, he stood up from the bench and walked towards the kitchen, intending to cook himself.
Youla did not say she was hungry, but Lin Yan would still cook because he was very hungry now. He hadn't eaten anything since yesterday afternoon and hadn't had enough sleep. He had to go to make up for it after dinner.
However, before he could take two steps, Youra pulled his sleeve behind her.
"Let me do it."
In terms of cooking skills, although Lin Yan is not bad, he is definitely not as good as Youla, who was forced to learn cooking skills by her family since she was a child. Since she said that herself, Lin Yan would certainly not refuse and agreed directly. After all, he hadn't eaten the food made by Youla for a while.
I heard that Youla has learned a few dishes from Liyue recently, and he just wanted to try it. As for the kind of thing you are so kind... they don't need it at all.
......
After fiddling in the kitchen for a while, not long after, Youra served a few plates of hot dishes, showing her virtuous wife's temperament.
The most common thing in Liyue is three dishes and one soup, but because they only have two people and cannot finish three dishes and one soup, there are only two dishes and one soup here. Anyway, no matter what, people in Liyue must drink soup when they eat.
The soup made by Youla was not that kind of soup, but a clear soup, which could clearly see the vegetables that were precipitated. After all, she didn't like to drink soup. And those two dishes were a simple plate of green vegetables and almond tofu.
Last time I went to Wanmintang for dinner, Youla seemed to see that Lin Yan loved almond tofu for ten minutes, so she specially learned how to make it. Now it's the first time I'm on the table, and I don't know if he will like it.
In fact, even if she doesn't make it delicious, Lin Yan will say it's delicious and finish it with a stingy forehead.
However, Youla's cooking skills will definitely not disappoint. Although it is not as good as the taste of a top restaurant like [Crescent Moon Xuan], it can be considered very delicious.
It is also worth mentioning that because the Monds rarely use chopsticks, the biggest problem that Youla faces when she comes to Liyue for dinner is chopsticks. Even after learning for so long, she still cannot master the trick of using chopsticks.
For example, now, she wants to pick up a piece of almond tofu, but because she used too much force, the tofu broke in half before it was picked up.
I tried it a few more times, but she almost got the almond tofu that was broken in half.
An awkward blush appeared on his face, and Youra bulged her mouth. Although she had not spoken yet, Lin Yan already understood what she meant.
Picking up the chopsticks, Lin Yan picked up two pieces of almond tofu into her bowl. Similar scenes happened almost every time they were eaten, with a bit of a cute and cute taste.
......
After dinner, they were very dirty because they had experienced the battle with Ossel last night. After taking turns taking a shower, Lin Yan returned to the room to sleep.
It was normal at the beginning, but the heat after taking a shower made him unable to fall asleep as soon as possible.
Suddenly, the sound of the door being pushed open came from behind. Lin Yan looked up and saw Xiaobai sleeping on the cabinet beside the bed. Who opened the door?
If the person who came to assassinate him was only Youra.
Sure enough, not long after, Lin Yan felt someone get into his quilt and turned around to look at it. It was really Youra.
Because Youra had just finished taking a shower, her hair was still a little wet. She was wearing a thin pajamas. Even though she was covered with a quilt, Lin Yan could still see her perfect figure curve.
