Original God, if I am beaten by them, I will become stronger

However, Ganyu still has to spend half the night doing written work, which Lin Qiu cannot help with, so the two of them have to separate for a while.

After separating from Ganyu, it was almost time for the appointment with Xiao, so he quickly ran towards the wilderness near Liyue Harbor to meet Xiao and the Traveler.

Deepening the connection with Kirin Girl is important, but the task of killing the Doctor is equally important.

Chapter 125 We are rehearsing (4k)

On the other side of Tianheng Mountain, there is an open area, which is very suitable for fighting, or... rehearsing the upcoming, hypocritical battle.

The place that Lin Qiu and the Demon-Subduing Great Sage agreed to meet was right there, but the time they agreed to meet was one o'clock in the morning, so it was still relatively early.

Lin Qiu activated his inherent time control, quickly left Liyue Harbor, and sprinted towards the agreed location.

During this time, he saw a blond traveler walking slowly on the road, also heading towards the agreed location.

The male and female protagonists of that drama are Lin Qiu and Sister Ying. In the end, the two will be buried in the coffin together. Therefore, the blonde traveler is indispensable for today's rehearsal.

The forest hill closed time accelerated and stopped in front of the traveler.

"Hey, Ying." He greeted.

Seeing this wind-like man suddenly rushing towards him, the traveler was stunned for two seconds.

"Do you need me to give you a ride?" Lin Qiu invited. "If you go so slowly, you might be late."

The traveler didn't want to walk slowly, but yesterday, when she was looking for the divine pupil that Ganyu mentioned, she accidentally fell on her butt.

This is a serious secondary injury.

If she wanted to walk faster now, she would have to endure the protest from her aching anus, so the traveler could only move slowly.

She wasn't worried about the rehearsal because the injury would affect her movements. She had already bought some pain-relieving herbs from Qiqi in advance and could just put two of them in her mouth.

Upon hearing Lin Qiu's invitation, Ying readily agreed.

Then, the blonde traveler girl looked behind Lin Qiu and did not see any means of transportation such as a carriage. Just as she was wondering, Lin Qiu had already picked her up.

The same posture as holding Linghua, a princess hug.

"Huh?!" Ying was even more confused.

"It was the same when I transported Miss Shenli and Master Hu." Lin Qiu explained calmly, "After all, I can run faster than any other means of transportation - if Miss Ying minds, I can get a rickshaw to take you."

The traveler didn't care much about this. Instead, her focus was on the rickshaw. If she wanted to "ride" in the car, Lin Qiu was running so fast that she would definitely not be able to bear it. It would be better to be carried, at least it would not touch the injured part.

Thinking of this, the traveler girl held in Lin Qiu's arms nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'm going to charge." Lin Qiu said, "It may be a little exciting, but bear with it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qiu directly ordered a charge towards the target location. Like a gust of colorful wind, it didn't take long for them to reach the agreed place.

The Demon-Subduing Great Sage folded his arms across his chest, as if he had been waiting here for a long time, but his expression looked very calm, and he must have been enjoying the wait.

After all, for Xiao, his life is divided into two types: killing monsters and other things.

His duty is to kill monsters, but apart from killing, he will feel relaxed when doing anything. So in the eyes of ordinary people, waiting is boring, but in the eyes of Xiao, even this boredom is very precious.

After all, he prefers boring waiting to the fight of swords and sabers.

Seeing Lin Qiu and Ying coming, Xiao had a calm expression and walked quickly to them.

Lin Qiu took out a scroll from the system warehouse and said, "This is the script that Hu Tao gave me about our 'performance'. I modified it a little bit, removed the melodramatic parts, and kept the essence. It's almost ready to use."

Under the bright moonlight, the three of them read the script again.

The plot is roughly like this: the demonic power in Lin Qiu's body is out of control, but at the same time, with only a trace of rationality left, he is still trying to suppress himself.

The traveler tried to stop and wake him up, and the fierce battle attracted the demon-slaying Great Saint Xiao.

Compared to the Traveler who is Lin Qiu's friend and wants to reawaken Lin Qiu, Xiao's goal is to protect Liyue, so he advocates killing Lin Qiu.

And just like that, a chaotic three-way battle ensued.

As for the bug of the unequal combat power among the three people, they can use the excuse that Lin Qiu's remaining consciousness is trying to suppress his strength to get away with it.

In the end, Lin Qiu's attack pierced the Traveler, and Xiao's green spear pierced through Lin Qiu, so that the two heroes' plans to pretend to be dead could be realized at the same time.

Lin Qiu used his last moments to activate the Yin-Yang magic to seal the evil spirit. However, since Ying was too close, she was also enveloped by the seal. If the two were separated, the seal would be lifted immediately. The only way for them to rest in peace was to bury them together.

Of course, if the family members of the two heroes, Paimon and the Son of God Ayaka, were asked to come and mourn, it would increase the authenticity. But I am afraid that Paimon’s acting skills will not be able to fool the Fatui. If he bursts out laughing in the middle of the show, the situation will be completely irreversible.

After much thought, I decided to keep the mourning segment for now and prioritize the smoothness of the plan.

In short, Lin Qiu and Ying were buried together in a natural way. When the Wangsheng Hall was sending the coffin to Wuwangpo, the Fatui would definitely send people to rob it. At that time, the people responsible for guarding the coffin only needed to let it go a little to allow it to be snatched away, and the mission would be accomplished.

"What we have to do tonight is to familiarize ourselves with each other's fighting styles and rehearse the dialogue lines in advance, with the goal of deceiving the Fatui." Lin Qiu thought for a moment, looked at the Demon-Subduing Great Sage and added, "I guess Xiao Shangxian is not good at memorizing lines. He is just as ruthless and taciturn as usual. Just practice a few main lines, and leave the rest to me and Ying."

Although the traveler looks silly, she is actually completely different from Aying who is silly from the inside out. She is very smart inside. Lin Qiu believes that she can play the role well.

In order to prevent the rehearsal process from being seen by others, Lin Qiu took out a golden object from his pocket. The material of the object was amber and looked like crystal.

He showed the two the concentrated rock element in his hand and explained, "This is a little gadget given to me by the Emperor. When used with my Yin-Yang technique, it can form a barrier of the highest degree, isolating both the scene and the space. No outsiders will see our rehearsal."

After saying that, Lin Qiu drew runes on the ground and placed the treasure given to him by the Emperor in the center of the runes. As the crystal emitted light, this space was completely isolated from the outside world.

In fact, this barrier has additional small settings.

Lin Qiu told Shen Zi and Ling Hua the place for rehearsal in the evening. If they needed to find him for something important, they could just come directly to the rehearsal place.

So when he created this barrier, he added a setting that the Inazuma girls and Inazuma monsters who were related to him could also enter this barrier.

After confirming that the barrier was safe, Lin Qiu activated the Undead Adventurer skill and explained to the Traveler and Xiao that it didn't matter how they hit him from now on, and he could be resurrected even if he was killed.

In order to prove to the two that what he said was true, he performed a traditional art, stabbing himself with the death thorn spear on the spot, spitting blood from his mouth and signaling everyone to wait for 30 seconds.

Sister Ying was stunned, and even the Demon-Subduing Sage couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw this scene.

One was a traveler who had traveled across many worlds, and the other was an immortal who had subdued demons for many years. What kind of scenes had they not seen? However, this scene was something they had never seen before.

30 seconds later, Lin Qiu, who had watched the advertisement, was immediately resurrected on the spot, and the spear on his chest was pushed away due to regeneration.

"That's about it, so don't worry about me."

He gave his two companions a thumbs-up, signaling that they could begin.

……

Xiao Gong and Qi Liangliang have also been very busy these days.

Qiliangliang delivers goods everywhere in Liyue, but crossing mountains and rivers is not a difficult task for her, after all, she is a cat.

As for Xiao Gong, the enthusiastic and cheerful girl, she is like a fish in water in the commercial city of Liyue Harbor. Not only does she successfully sell the fireworks that come with her, she also takes samples to promote them everywhere, expanding the business and customer base of Naganohara Fireworks Shop.

At this moment, both of them had almost completed their work, and they had plenty of free time to enjoy a good life. However, after staying in the bustling Liyue Harbor for so long, Xiao Gong suddenly wanted to appreciate the suburban environment, so she went to the wild with the cat girl.

Of course, the main reason was that Xiao Gong wanted to set off fireworks. However, the fire prevention regulations in Liyue Port were extremely strict, and she didn't want to get into trouble in a foreign country, so she took the sample fireworks and followed Qi Liangliang to the suburbs to release them.

However, they did not go too far, because there was a notice in Liyue Harbor: Monsters (Iron Armored Men) have been rampant recently, and people are asked not to go far away from the town at night.

They just came to the other side of Tianheng Mountain for a simple walk.

The blonde girl walked behind, while the cat courier, who had transformed back into his original form, walked in front to scout the way.

At this moment, Qi Liangliang was like an oversized cat crawling into a cardboard box, carrying the sample fireworks of Xiao Palace on his back.

A man and a cat were walking and chatting.

Xiao Gong scratched the loose ponytail on the back of her head and said, "There seem to be a lot of strange rumors in Liyue Harbor recently, and some say that the great hero is about to die. What do you think?"

"Meow, meow, meow, meow (His vitality is so strong, he can't die easily)."

Xiao Gong continued, "Although I don't understand what you are saying, I think our ideas should be similar. There is also a rumor that Mr. Lin Qiu's demonic power is out of control and he asked the traveler to kill him - how is that possible!"

Just then, as they were walking, they suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of disharmony, as if they had left their original world and entered some kind of different space.

In fact, Xiao Gong and Kirara accidentally entered the barrier of Linqiu. After all, the barrier was set up like this: Inazuma women related to Linqiu, as well as monsters, can enter at will.

The original intention was to have Kamiko and Ayaka come to him if they had any problems, but he didn't consider that Xiao Gong and Kirara also met this condition, which led to them accidentally entering this place while taking a walk in the wild.

Spotting the fierce flames of battle in the distance, Xiao Gong and Qi Liangliang suddenly became alert. They slowly approached and finally hid on a large rock to observe the battlefield.

At the same time, the three people who were rehearsing had reached the final stage. The Traveler pretended to be shot, fell forward to the ground and posed as a leader, and then Xiao stabbed Lin Qiu in the chest.

Lin Qiu fell to the ground.

Xiao Gong was completely stunned: What's going on? !

Qiliangliang, who turned into a cat box, also had his two tails standing up.

It was far away, and with only the help of moonlight, Xiao Gong couldn't see the specific situation at all. Although Kirara had turned back to her original form and gained powerful night vision, cats are nearsighted, so she didn't quite know what was happening over there.

Although they didn't know what happened or why the battle started, they all had a common idea in their minds, which was that they must take Lin Qiu back.

If we want to get Lin Qiu back, we must think of a good way to attract the attention of the guy who defeated Lin Qiu.

Xiao Gong's first reaction was to look at the fireworks that Qi Liangliang was carrying. She had a good idea.

……

Xiao's side.

Because his butt hurt after falling headfirst, the Traveler chose to lie prone. As for Lin Qiu, he had been killed by Xiao according to the script and was watching the advertisement to be resurrected.

According to the script lines given by Hu Tao, the Demon-Slaying Great Sage should have expressed his feelings about the passing of the two great heroes at this time, but now he has not yet delivered his lines.

The traveler lying on the ground thought: Speak the words! The words! I didn't forget them. The ground is so cold at night, and Lin Qiu's blood is about to flow to me...

Just when Xiao suddenly remembered that he had not yet completed a step, there was a "whoosh" sound and an unidentified object flew over from a distance.

At first Xiao wanted to stop it, but he quickly realized that this was the sound of fireworks that could be heard during Liyue’s annual Lantern Festival, and it was nothing to be afraid of.

But why are there fireworks inside the barrier?

Immediately afterwards, brilliant fireworks exploded in front of Xiao, and a cube creature that looked like a cat box rushed into the scene, picked up Lin Qiu and Ying and ran towards Xiao Palace.

The forest hills are below, and the fireflies are above.

Although Qiliangliang did not know Ying, through her clothing and the stories he heard from the Liyue people, he could infer that she was the hero who saved Liyue from the demon god.

So I brought it with me.

And now, Sister Ying is completely confused about the situation: It’s not written in the script!

She remembered the content of the script, which was that the doctor's subordinates had to snatch the coffin, not the corpse directly at the battle scene!

Ying quickly understood and thought that this was a scene designed by Lin Qiu specifically to test her live performance skills, so she continued to pretend to be a corpse without moving.

After Qiliangliang "rescued" the two people, he ran straight towards Xiaogong who was holding fireworks. Xiaogong was still shooting fireworks at Xiao, creating a visual obstruction.

At the same time, Xiao realized that the Cat Box and the Firework Shooter seemed to have no ill intentions, so he chose to stand still.

When Qi Liangliang brought Ying and Lin Qiu to Xiao Palace, the 30 seconds were up. Lin Qiu opened his eyes and looked at the surrounding environment in confusion.

Xiao Gong and Qi Liangliang didn't notice that Lin Qiu had woken up, and the fireworks were over, so the cat and the man ran away.

"What's going on?" Lin Qiu said.

Ying was surprised and puzzled, thinking: What's going on? Wasn't this arranged by you?

Finding Lin Qiu awake, Xiao Gong said happily: "It's great that you're okay. What should we do now? Continue to run away or go back and fight that guy!"

“Stop, stop, stop!” Lin Qiu, who was pressed under Ying, shouted, “I don’t know what will happen in the 30 seconds after I die, but stop first!!”

The Qiliangliang cat carriage stopped immediately, almost throwing Lin Qiu and Ying off, and Xiao Gong stopped running away.

Lin Qiu vaguely guessed what was going on and explained, "Don't worry, we are actually rehearsing. It's very safe and there are no casualties."

“Meow meow meow meow meow! (Rehearsal? Do you rehearse like this?!)”

Chapter 126: Closeness with Sister Ying (4k)

It took quite a while to explain everything to Xiao Gong and Qi Liangliang, and before I knew it, it was already late at night.

Lin Qiu used the Yin-Yang magic of grass element and fire element to create a simple campfire, took out ingredients from the system warehouse, and cooked a midnight snack for everyone present.

When it comes to late-night food, it is inevitable to be inseparable from the delicious barbecue. Lin Qiu puts meat, green peppers, broccoli and other ingredients on sharpened branches and places them above the campfire.

By the way, he took some time to use Yin-Yang magic to create water elements for the traveler to help her wipe the blood stains off her clothes.

During the previous rehearsal, Xiao stabbed Lin Qiu through and through. When he was "rescued" by Qiliangliang, Ying lay on Lin Qiu's body again, causing his white clothes to be dyed red.

In comparison, Qiliangliang didn't have a big problem. The cat girl was blocked by the paper box, and no liquid got on her body.

While the traveler was wiping his clothes, the fireworks store girl and the cat courier who had turned back to his original form were still digesting this huge amount of information.
