"Now that you have a chance to make up for your regrets, shouldn't you seize the opportunity?"
Fang Xun prayed silently in his heart, praying that the souls who answered the call would return to their final resting place.
Because the spirit lamp can only be used once a night.
If we miss this opportunity, then it will be truly gone.
Zhongli also looked at the lamp that Fang Xun had placed.
Although I don't know what the lamp is for, I can more or less know that it can summon ghosts.
In response, Zhongli murmured softly, "Gui Zhong, are you here?"
It was as if Fang Xun's words had an effect, or as if Zhong Li's voice had been heard.
A girl's figure slowly emerged in front of the spirit lamp.
The girl's distinctive features are her long, waist-length, light blue hair and wide sleeves.
Her skin was delicate and fair, and her large eyes were bright and expressive.
Before she could even speak, the girl threw herself into Zhongli's arms without a word.
"Thank you, thank you, Morax."
"I really, really love these glass lilies."
He returned home, sobbing uncontrollably, tears streaming down his face.
She saw it; she saw the sea of flowers that Zhongli had meticulously prepared for her.
Zhongli looked down at Guizhong in his arms, reached out to wipe away her tears, and then said with a soft laugh, "Guizhong... it's been a long time."
Chapter 91 Resurrection and Return
Gui Zhong raised his head and looked at Zhong Li: "Morax, how have you been all these years?"
Even after a thousand years,
Gui's attachment to Morax remained as strong as ever.
On the contrary, because of the distance between life and death, this concern has become even stronger.
Zhongli said softly, "In the end, Liyue no longer needs the help of gods and immortals."
"I often immerse myself in Liyue as a human, listening to stories and walking my birds, and I've made many friends."
"I actually enjoy that kind of lifestyle."
The Dragon King Ruoduo, standing nearby, listened with longing in his eyes.
Great minds think alike.
Morax's retirement life is exactly what he envisioned!
Gui Zhong pouted, looking wronged like a resentful young wife.
Did she want to hear Zhongli talk about these things?
Gui Zhong said angrily, "Morax, I've heard so much from you, but you haven't said a single thing about me!"
Zhongli asked, somewhat surprised and puzzled, "What is it?"
Gui Zhong still didn't know whether Zhongli truly didn't understand or was just pretending.
If it were a thousand years ago, the shy Gui Zhong would have immediately changed the subject and stopped talking.
But now she saw the hillsides covered with lilies.
Thinking about the promises I made before reveals my true feelings.
She's not the type to back down in the face of battle.
It's just expressing her feelings, she's not afraid at all.
Gui Zhong stared intently at Zhong Li with her beautiful eyes, and then said, word by word, "Morax, I have been missing you all these years, so I really want to know if you feel the same way."
Gui paused for a moment, then mustered his courage and said, "Tell me honestly, have you ever thought of me all these years, even for a fleeting moment?"
Gui Zhong raised his head and stared at Zhong Li defiantly.
Her pretty face was filled with nervousness and unease; she wanted Zhongli's answer, yet she was also afraid of it.
For a moment, Zhongli fell silent.
He is often like an encyclopedia, able to provide corresponding and accurate answers to many questions.
Even many researchers in Liyue admire Zhongli's vast knowledge.
But when faced with a question from a little girl like Gui Zhong, Zhong Li remained silent.
He really didn't know how to answer that question.
It was beyond his knowledge.
Seeing that Zhongli remained silent, Gui Zhong looked dejected and said weakly, "I understand."
Her large eyes dimmed, like a wounded little animal that only wanted to escape.
At this moment, Zhongli's voice slowly rang out after returning to his life.
"In the end, I don't know what it means to miss someone."
"But for the past thousand years, I have often dreamed of you."
"I dreamt of the words you spoke to me, I dreamt of you humming cheerful songs."
"If this counts as missing someone, then I have."
As a veteran cadre, it would be difficult for Zhong Li to say such a thing.
But seeing Gui Zhong's sorrowful appearance, even his heart, as hard and unyielding as a rock, was touched.
Zhongli didn't organize her thoughts into words; she simply expressed her most direct feelings.
For a time, Gui Zhong remained in the same place.
She could no longer control her body, and her shoulders began to tremble slightly.
Large tears streamed down her face.
To know,
When Zhongli talked about the events of the past years without mentioning Gui Zhong at all, she didn't cry.
When faced with her question, Zhongli remained silent and did not cry.
But upon hearing Zhongli's words, Gui Zhong cried like a child.
She cried tears of joy.
Gui Zhong was overjoyed to hear Zhongli say such words, and felt completely satisfied without any regrets.
"Morax, I want to live in your memory for a lifetime."
Gui Zhong spoke very softly and slowly.
Her body flickered and disappeared, as if it were about to vanish with the wind.
After the spirit lamp makes up for the ghost's regrets, the ghost will quickly dissipate.
Now, I finally see the lilies blooming all over the mountains and fields.
He also mustered up the courage to tell Zhongli his thoughts.
It's about time I left.
Gui finally realized that he couldn't hold on for much longer.
Then she looked at Zhongli and said with a smile, "Morax, do you still have the Earthly Lock I gave you that day?"
Zhongli nodded and raised the Worldly Lock in his hand.
Gui Zhong's eyes welled up with tears, but a smile remained on his face: "Morax, you mustn't forget me, do you hear me?"
"I will become this lock... to stay by your side."
The sound of death grew fainter and fainter.
The guiding lamp gradually dimmed, indicating that Gui Zhong was about to depart.
Zhongli also realized that once Guizhong left, they would never see each other again.
He wanted to do something, but he was powerless to.
Just like a thousand years ago, Gui Zhong lay helplessly in his arms, slowly losing her warmth.
Even if he is a great god, he cannot escape wear and tear and death.
He wanted to stay and return home.
It doesn't matter how you stay.
Such a strong will made Fang Xun feel the dim Divine Heart in his backpack brighten up.
To be precise, it was the Heart of God that burst forth with dazzling light.
The surface appeared to be covered with a layer of carbonized material, which was now flakeing off.
The golden Heart of God floated in front of Fang Xun and then entered Fang Xun's body.
Fang Xun was stunned.
He had initially believed that this Heart of God was a fragment belonging to Zhongli.
He never imagined that this was his divine heart.
After the Heart of God entered Fang Xun's body, Fang Xun felt that the world before him became exceptionally clear.
He was able to see elemental forces that he couldn't see before.
Sky and earth,
Wind and rock,
Most importantly, it can resonate directly with the soil and rock.
