I saw this is written in the letter:
When you read this letter, I have already embarked on the road of spiritual practice.
It's a pity that I can't apologize to you two in person, but I still hope to get your forgiveness.
After the big Santo dream, I stayed up all night, thinking about how to fulfill the "oath" all night.
Not only did I deceive the two of you, but I also took advantage of the hopes of the "believers".
People who are in trouble tend to be weak, blindly longing to believe something.
I used lies to bring them false salvation, but I also made them farther and farther away from their wishes.
I know that in those ancient times, people's desires had not become so complicated.
The "Great Sage Conquering Demons" carries the wishes of the entire Liyue, and fights against evil spirits. He puts on a mask to hide the weakness brought about by "people's wishes".
I, who lied about being an immortal, always wear a mask to show others.
But a real immortal would only wear a mask in front of evil spirits.
If it is said that my mask is to cover up my heart bewitched by evil spirits...
Then "What the mask of the Great Sage Conqueror J hides is his human side. But he put on a ghostly face, frightening all evil spirits...
When I realized this, I deeply felt my own ugliness, and also understood the true meaning of "immortal".I set off to travel the mountains and rivers, to cultivate my body and mind, not seeking to be able to completely atone for my sins, but only to be eligible to become "believers" of immortals.
I have entrusted someone to return the money I defrauded.I still have some belongings that are not beneficial to my practice, and I hope you two will accept them.
I don’t have the face to keep the seal script of “A hundred no taboos” left by my grandfather, so please take it too. I wish you two wishes can truly come true, and we will see you again.
Signed: Wang Pingan, the guilty man
Seeing "Tian Xing Seo Chen Tianjun", that is, these things left by Wang Pingan, Pai Meng had an expression of disbelief on his face: "It's been a long time since I've seen such a sensible villain..."
After reading the letter, Ying sniffled: "It's touching..."
Paimon blinked his big eyes: "That's right... Oh, by the way, let's send the "Hundred No Taboo Seal" to Mandrill, shall we? "
"Well, let's go." Chen Fan replied from the side, and led everyone to find Mandrill on the chairs next to a round table near the kitchen of Wangshu Inn.
Mandrill sat upright, not sure if he was in a daze or thinking about something.
The moment Paimon saw him, he quickly said, "It's really here!"
While talking, he floated to Mandrill's side: "We took back the "Bai Wu Taboo Seal", can you take it away? "
Mandrill took the "Hundred No Taboo Seals" and smiled slightly at everyone: "Thank you, three."
At this time, Xiuhua, the waitress of Wangshu Inn, came over: "Do you need to order, sir?"
Mandrill said lightly, "One serving of 'Grilled Goby'. "
Xiuhua smiled politely: "Okay, I'll cook for you right away!"
Hearing that Mandrill ordered this dish, both Chen Fan and Ying were surprised.
Paimeng asked Chen Fan and Ying the same question: "Huh? It's not almond tofu this time. It's too rare for Mandrill."
Mandrill didn't say too much: "This is what "Bronze Sparrow" liked to eat when he was alive..."
Then he added in a flat tone: "I just want to taste what it tastes like."
After hearing this, Paimon looked a little disappointed: "Is that so..."
Chen Fan glanced at Ying, both of them were silent.
Mandrill then sighed leisurely: ""The turbulent waves go into the sea to find the tiger, and the wind and snow return to the mountain to kill the evil spirits"..."
"......."
Seeing how many people were at a loss, Mandrill said without a tone: "Is there anything else for the three of you? I'm more used to eating alone."
Chen Fan smiled awkwardly: "Then don't bother..."
Paimon circled twice in mid-air: "Well, Paimon and the travelers, just be so handsome, let's leave quietly..."
Back at Liyue Port, Paimon suddenly got excited and wanted to go to the pearl boat on the sea to have a look.

Anyway, there was nothing else to do now, so everyone found the boatman Ping Hai, and he drove the boat to the big ship anchored on the ocean not far away.
Walking to the Pearl Boat, Chen Fan, Ying and Pai Meng accidentally recognized a familiar face...
I saw Zhong Li sitting at a round table, seeming to be talking to the people here about something?
Sensing someone coming, Zhongli tilted his head slightly: "Oh? I didn't expect to meet you here."
On the opposite side, a woman named Wan Yan couldn't help being curious: "Are these two your friends?"
Zhongli nodded lightly, his voice still full of magnetism: "Well, I was lucky to meet Ying and Chen Fan some time ago. They are knowledgeable, knowledgeable and talented. Getting along with them is very sympathetic."
......................................
Then, Zhong Li asked everyone: "Just now we talked about the topic of "historical rock kings and emperors", are you interested in listening? "
Another man named Hanxue said to Chen Fan and others at this time: "This gentleman seems to have underestimated Lord Yan's divine power. As a professional archaeologist, I want to correct some of his views."
Ying couldn't breathe: "He, he actually..."
Chen Fan's forehead was full of black lines.
What kind of reaction would this guy have if he knew that Zhongli was the Emperor Yanwang?
But in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, Chen Fan and Ying just smiled awkwardly.
Hanxue said to everyone: "We are discussing the whereabouts of the "first mora in history". "
Paimon tilted his head: "The first Mora in history?"
Another person of insight named Yixuan added to everyone: "As we all know, under the guidance of Lord Yan, the ancestors of Liyue smelted ore and used the original goods to start trade with all countries in the world."
"Today's Liyue holds the sole right to cast Mora in the whole continent. And the first Mora in the world should have been cast by Lord Yan himself thousands of years ago."
Immediately afterwards, Wan Yan added another sentence: "According to my research... plus a little guesswork, I think this historically significant mora may have been passed down secretly as a "token". "
"For example... for the "Seven Stars" in charge of Liyue, will there be any rituals that are unknown to outsiders before each generation takes office..." and .
Chapter 420 Four: The First Mora!
Chapter 420 Four: The First Mora!
Hanxue immediately interrupted the woman: "No, no, according to my research, the status of this "first mora" is not that simple. "
"As we all know, Mora is a kind of catalyst. Even today, there are also thaumaturgy that use Mora's efficacy in occultism to strengthen weapons."
"The world's first mora must contain the strongest power. So my next historical work is to boldly demonstrate the latest results of my ten years of painstaking research!"
"That is—Yan Wangye used this Mora as a catalyst to strengthen his sword and sword."
Hearing Hanxue's argument, Paimon felt a little confused: "One knife and one sword?"
Hanxue looked proud: "Hmph, please buy the book and read the full text. Now I will only reveal a small part of the secret. When you reach the sword, "[-]" can become Liyue Supreme. Just pull out the sword. Crowning the King of Liyue—"
After listening to his words, Zhong Li shook his head lightly: "...I don't agree with you."
Hanxue frowned: "Huh?"
Zhongli said gracefully: "Not to mention the authenticity of this sword textual research... The original intention of the so-called mora, the so-called money, is just a bargaining chip to facilitate the "contract signing". "
"It is the emperor's original intention to guide humans to use Mora for transactions."
Having said that, Zhong Li still didn't forget to add: "Presumably the "world's first mora" was just regarded as an ordinary coin by the emperor, and it was simply spent..."
Anyway, Zhongli's real identity is the emperor. Hearing this, Chen Fan complained in a low voice: "Ah, so the first mora is gone so easily."
None of the people present knew Zhongli's identity.
Yixuan completely disagrees with Zhongli's statement just now: "Well... I think Mr. Hanxue's hypothesis is very reasonable, but this Mr. Zhongli, with no evidence, just thinks about Lord Qingyan's far-reaching plan like this?"
Zhongli took a sip of tea leisurely: "No...my statement doesn't contain praise or criticism, it's just stating a fact."
Han Xue looked contemptuous: "Come on, do you know Lord Yan or I know Lord Yan?"
Ying couldn't help it anymore: "He, he actually..."
Chen Fan sighed: "I don't know why, but I think of 'the strange light of fish eyes'..."
Paimon naturally didn't know what Chen Fan was talking about: "Fish! Grilled, boiled! Hehe, delicious!"
At this time, Zhong Li continued to speak: "I only know a little bit about history, so I dare not boast. But if there is no difference in ideas, the discussion will lose its meaning."
Yixuan intentionally showed off: "Then let me ask you, thousands of years ago, Liyue Port was a big building project, and Lord Yan taught the people's architectural skills. The demonstration models he used were all made of Mora, right?"
Zhong Li nodded lightly: "It is true."
Hanxue continued to ask: "Okay, tell me, if it wasn't because of Mo La's supernatural power, why would Lord Yan do such an extravagant behavior?"
Zhongli said leisurely: "It's easy to explain. Because for the emperor, Mora is the easiest and cheapest material to obtain."
After hearing this, Hanxue was speechless: "Uh, uh..."
Chen Fan muttered softly at the side: "It's like telling someone else's story."
Zhong Lihao smiled meaningfully at Chen Fan: "Hehe, it was originally the story of the King of Rock."
Wan Yan seemed to realize something, and said to Zhongli: "Mr.! Well... I have some questions about archaeology. I want to change to a quiet place and ask you for advice. I wonder if I will disturb you, sir?"
Zhongli frowned slightly: "Oh, that's okay. However, is it convenient for my two friends to come together? Maybe they can provide more help."
Ying and Chen Fan looked at each other: "Are we?"
Wan Yan nodded: "Mr. has said so, of course you are welcome! Let's go."
So a group of people came to the stern of the boat, seeing that there were few people around, Wan Yan said cautiously: "What you say next is a little disrespectful to the rock god, and it will attract a lot of stares, so... a quiet place is better."
"Just now I saw that Mr. Conversation is extraordinary and his thinking is clear. The most important thing is that he does not believe in bragging and deduction, and is very objective."
Wan Yan paused at this point: "So I want to ask you a question, maybe you can get a different answer from ordinary scholars... Do you think that all the demon gods killed by the rock god are evil?"
Zhongli still had that calm look: "...For the time being, good and evil, don't worry about it. The King of Rocks respects the "contract", so the demon god who died at his hands must have broken some kind of "contract"... ..."
Paimon quickly added: "Well, at least Lord Yan would not do such things as killing innocent people indiscriminately."
Wan Yan couldn't wait to say: "However, when I was archaeological, I learned some legends about the "Demon God of Salt". "
"The "Demon God of Salt" Heulia...she is a kind demon god, but she was defeated by Morax in the war..."
"Assassinated by Morax, in disgraceful means..."
Paimon turned pale with shock after hearing this: "Ah? No way!"
Chen Fan said softly to Ying: "It must have been a long-term interpretation, distorting the facts that happened at that time."
Ying smiled slightly: "That's the only possibility."
Zhong Li paused, and said to Wan Yan: "This... is indeed a long history. But the truth of the story may not be what you want to know."
Wan Yan looked eager for it: "It's okay, please tell me all the history you know! This matter... I have been investigating this matter for a long time!"
After hearing this, Zhongli fell silent and looked towards the distant sea.
Ying couldn't help frowning: "Zhongli looks a bit embarrassed."
Zhong Li shook his head lightly: "No...just, where should I start?"
At this moment, a young man named Clement, dressed in the costumes of fools, came from behind the screen.
"Oh, here it is! Mr. Zhongli! Oh, I've been looking for it for a long time, but I didn't expect you to be here at 3.5."
Ying immediately warned: "All fools?!"
Paimeng said loudly, "Put down your weapon! Keep your distance! Otherwise...or I will report to Qianyan Army!"
Clement slapped his head: "First of all, I didn't hold a weapon?!"
Then he cleared his throat: "Uh...the reaction doesn't have to be so intense, I'm an archaeological researcher from Zhiwinter Kingdom, and I'm not here to ask for trouble."
Paimon puffed his face: "The fools say that every time..."
Clement quickly explained: "This time, I have already reported it to the Liyue General Affairs Department. If you want to see it, I have the official permission document here."
This guy put on an extremely official look: "I will conduct archaeological exploration in Liyue for a period of time, and all the results of the exploration will be shared with the authorities.".
