The treasure thieves of Teyvat rob Shenhe

She thought from Mu Xiaojin's perspective and sincerely admired the girl's courage and sense of responsibility.

Ye Lan was not an ordinary person. He accepted and thought about it quickly.

"So, Quan Tai's identity is the Chi of Qingce Manor, and his purpose is to take revenge on the Emperor. To prevent his resurrection, on the one hand, there is the seal cast by your mother, and on the other hand, there are the Nine Pillars of the Peace of the World at Cuijue Slope."

"Ye Lan, you know so much, you should know that the Nine Pillars of Jingshi play a role in suppressing the devil, right?" Lin Ye asked.

"I do know a thing or two. The demons suppressed by the Nine Pillars are, according to their level of secrecy, the demon god Osel and the demon dragon Chi Beast. As for the others, I'm afraid only immortals who have lived for a long time know them."

Ye Lan said this and made a comment with a helpless look.

"The point is that I don't know which Quantai the Chi beast is. The name you provided is not reliable."

"Indeed." Lin Ye agreed deeply.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lan rolled her eyes at Lin Ye.

"Although I am mentally prepared, it still seems very difficult now."

"You're not going to get scared, are you?" Lin Ye asked directly.

"Coward?" Ye Lan looked at Lin Ye, narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked back, then raised the corners of her mouth, "I feel an unprecedented excitement."

"This kind of woman has very dangerous thoughts. Shen He, stay away from her in the future and don't let her lead you astray." Lin Ye turned his head and said gently to Shen He.

"Ah."

Ye Lan: ...

"Can you please repeat to me what you just said to Shen He? Young Master Lin Ye." Ye Lan said with a smile.

"...What I mean is that you like adventure and enjoy the feeling of a quickened heartbeat, but Shen He is gentle in nature and can't stand this kind of stimulation." Lin Ye repeated in a firm tone.

Shen He is gentle?

Ye Lan glanced calmly at Shen He, whose face was as cold as ice and a little bit different from the word gentle. She felt puzzled and could only attribute it to "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder".

Ye Lan is not a stingy person, she was just retorting just now. Lin Ye was telling the truth, her personality was indeed a little weird.

"I just wanted to say something, but you interrupted me and I forgot it... Oh, by the way, from what you said, the Stone of Tracing is in your hands. What are you going to do with it?"

"Confiscate it?" Lin Ye asked with a smile.

"According to my status, I will say that the Demon God has been resurrected. This is a serious matter. I need to report it to Ningguang, and she will discuss with the other six stars how to deal with it. As for the key to the Demon God's resurrection: the Stone of Tracing, it would be safer to give it to the Liyue Seven Stars."

"Not according to identity, what do you think personally?"

Ye Lan thought about it and said in a negative way.

"I will personally keep all important things. If I give them to outsiders, even officials, there will always be some negligence. In fact, I have seen many important things lost due to poor supervision by guards."

"They said it was given to the Liyue Seven Stars, but it's impossible for a big shot to keep an eye on this thing 24 hours a day, right? And it's still unclear when Quan Tai will be resurrected."

Lin Ye agreed with Ye Lan's remarks.

The main quest of the Mondstadt in the game is not only for the cathedral, but also for the entire Mondstadt. The national artifact, the Sky Harp, was easily stolen by the Traveler, even with the help of an insider.

This also indirectly reflects that the person guarding the treasure is not a big shot, but a subordinate, not a top master. There is no large mechanism or formation where the treasure is stored, so the possibility of an accident is not high but it exists.

"Regarding the time of Quan Tai's resurrection, a nobleman told me to wait for the right opportunity. When the time comes, I will take the initiative to attack before Quan Tai is resurrected."

"What noble person told you?" Ye Lan raised an eyebrow, "To predict the time of the Demon God's resurrection, is there such a person in Liyue Harbor? Tell me his name and let me know."

"The guest of the Wangsheng Hall, Mr. Zhongli." Lin Ye said truthfully.

"So it was that gentleman... His knowledge is far beyond that of ordinary people and he is very mysterious. If it is him, it is possible that he knows the time of Quan Tai's resurrection." Ye Lan said after thinking for a while.

The reason why Lin Ye exposed Zhongli was because Ye Lan was interested in investigating, and it would be easy to find out by asking people around Lin Ye.

It is true that Zhongli is the walking emperor on earth, but he has been hiding for so many years that the Seven Stars of Liyue have not noticed it.

Unless there is strong evidence, Zhongli will not be linked to the Emperor. Who knows that the Emperor would use a small account to conduct a secret visit?

"By the way, how are the boss and the others doing?" Lin Ye asked, "Have you mentioned the labor reform issue to Ningguang?"

"You can meet with Ningguang about this matter. After listening to your story, I also need to report to Ningguang." Ye Lan said with a smile.

Chapter 139 Goodbye Ningguang

Liyue Port, Qunyu Pavilion.

Ningguang was working, writing furiously at her desk. The three secretaries were not beside her, and they were unexpectedly assigned to work on their own.

At this time, footsteps were heard.

Ningguang raised her head, put down her brush with her slender hand, and asked the visitor in her unique magnetic and mature voice.

"Mr. Ye Lan, do you have any new information this time?"

"That depends on what Lord Ningguang wants to know." Ye Lan shrugged and teased, then saw Ningguang turn his gaze to the young man standing next to him.

Ningguang was not surprised to see Lin Ye and remained calm.

"Master Lin Ye, you are here, please take a seat."

"Ah."

It was still in the same position. Lin Ye wondered whether the tea in the teapot should be replaced when it got cold, as it was always hot every time he came.

Lin Ye looked around calmly; the scenery remained unchanged.

Perhaps there are subtle changes, such as the relocation of antique calligraphy and paintings somewhere, or the densely packed information posted on the intelligence wall has quietly changed.

“Lord Ningguang, I don’t have an appointment. I am visiting you without permission. I am afraid I am disturbing you. Please forgive me.” Lin Ye said politely.

"It's okay. I know that Master Lin Ye is mature and well-planned. This visit must be for an important matter. How can it be considered as a disturbance?"

After a few words of greeting, Lin Ye took the lead in explaining the purpose of his visit.

"Miss Ye Lan should have spoken to Lord Ning Guang about the labor reform I proposed, which is to use labor instead of imprisonment."

"The prison environment is dark and depressing. Staying in prison for a long time is not conducive to their physical and mental health development. Some criminals are already negative and pessimistic, and this makes things worse."

Lin Ye explained to Ningguang in a friendly manner. His words and expressions were no different from those of a warm-hearted teenager. His sincerity and enthusiasm made people believe that he was completely concerned about the criminals in prison.

"As the saying goes, labor is the most glorious. We can set up a labor reform agency to carry out labor activities, such as mining, and the agency implements the concept of 'combining punishment and control with ideological transformation, and combining labor production with political education'."

"For those who have performed outstandingly and actively cooperated in labor reform, we will encourage and praise them, reduce their sentences appropriately, stimulate the subjective initiative of other prisoners, and promote the new look and new atmosphere of Liyue Prison that dares to be the first and endures hardships."

"I believe this is a two-birds-at-one approach, which can not only boost the local economy, but also enhance the self-esteem of criminals, train their ability to endure hardships, and reduce the probability of them reoffending after they are released from prison."

"After all, it's easy to defeat a mountain bandit, but it's hard to defeat a bandit in his heart."

Ningguang pondered for a long time after hearing this, then smiled.

"Master Ye Lan did give me a general description of the labor reform mentioned by Master Lin Ye."

"Reform through labor is a long-term project, and it tests not only the subjects, but also the guards. In the process, there are always subjects who want to cheat, or guards who take revenge. These are minor problems. And in terms of human resources, how many goals should we set... Wait, Master Lin Ye, have you considered this?"

Ningguang is a smart person. She can draw inferences from one example and detect hidden contradictions just from the framework.

Regarding these issues, some of them were what Lin Ye could think of, and some of them he was indeed not aware of.

Although Lin Ye has management experience, the team is small and there is still a gap between his management ability and Ningguang's.

However, one should do his job and leave professional issues to professionals.

Therefore, Lin Ye frankly stated that he was just making a suggestion and the specific details would be decided by Lady Ningguang.

Lin Ye proposed labor reform in the hope of reducing the sentences of the boss and others.

After all, labor reform has more advantages than disadvantages, and Lin Ye believes that Ningguang will agree.

Ningguang didn't expect Lin Ye to give an answer. She knew that Lin Ye had no experience in this field, so it would be good enough if he could give a good suggestion. This also improved Lin Ye's status in Ningguang's heart.

If he easily explained the pros and cons, Ningguang would start to suspect whether there was an expert behind the scenes directing Lin Ye and what the other party's purpose was.

Practice will solve all problems. Some problems may seem serious when they are envisioned, but when they are implemented, it is easy to find definite solutions.

"Master Lin Ye, my personal opinion is that I support labor reform. This is a new opportunity, and it is normal for opportunities to be accompanied by challenges."

Ningguang said this with a confident smile. Ningguang, Ye Lan, Keqing and others are all typical strong women. These girls become stronger when facing stronger opponents and their lives are full of fighting spirit.

But Ningguang didn't say anything very final.

"To implement labor reform, we need to amend the existing laws. This is the responsibility of Tianquan, but it is a serious matter. I also need to discuss it with the other six stars and refer to their opinions in various fields. It would be best to find a test field afterwards."

"I heard that there is a group of treasure-stealing gangs from Ao Zang Mountain locked up in Qianyan Army's prison, and they are quite motivated." Lin Ye said nonchalantly.

Ye Lan, who was drinking tea at leisure, almost left Bengbu after hearing this.

Ningguang was also surprised and chuckled. It was not a fake smile, but a light and gentle one.

In the eyes of her subordinates, Ningguang is a powerful person with a high position and omnipotence. In the eyes of her enemies, Ningguang is a cunning woman who keeps an eye on everything. In the eyes of the children in Liyue Harbor, Ningguang is a gentle big sister who will give them candy.

Ningguang's chuckle formed a contrast with her image of being a master strategist and scheming just now, with a kind of contrast that only a mature woman can have.

After taking a look, Lin Ye admitted that Ningguang was indeed charming. He was moved for a moment, but then he calmed down again.

Ningguang noticed that she had lost her composure and quickly adjusted her expression. She saw that Lin Ye had no intention of hiding anything, so she spoke straight to the point.

"Master Lin Ye, I didn't expect you to be the second in command of the treasure-stealing group."

As for why Ningguang knew Linye's identity as the second-in-command, it was because Linye asked Ye Lan to tell Ningguang about his identity as the second-in-command when he proposed labor reform with Ningguang.

There is no need to hide, and it is impossible to hide.

Ningguang is not stupid. After checking the files and questioning several parties involved, she noticed that the disappeared Hu Zha bandit was closely related to Lin Ye. She looked at Lin Ye more objectively and rationally, and would not be influenced by the honor of her righteous partner.

“Who would become a bandit if they couldn’t survive?” Lin Ye downplayed the reason why he joined the treasure-stealing group.

Ningguang could guess it, but she didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she acted in a businesslike manner and said, "According to the law, even if you are the child of Lord Dan'an, you cannot stay out of it. Even if you didn't commit murder or arson, robbery is still a crime."

"That's why I proposed the labor reform law, hoping to redeem myself from my crimes. When capturing Hun Tianba, the boss and I deserve credit as well as hard work." Lin Ye responded in a deep voice without any panic.

"...Compared to Hun Tianba's crime, robbery is not that serious. And I remember that the reward for assisting the Qianyan Army in resolving the Tianheng Mountain incident has not been redeemed yet."

"Then I'll use it now." Lin Ye said straightforwardly.

“I will teach you about Hu Zha’s deeds later, and I think that will make up for my mistakes. But I need to discuss this with the Qianyan Army, and they must know about it.” Ningguang said with a smile, “Master Linye, you are also a talent that I personally think highly of. It’s really a waste of your talent to be mining in the mountains.”

Lin Ye smiled and said nothing.

With his experience from his previous life, he regarded any compliments from his boss as empty words and was not interested at all.

At this time Ye Lan spoke.

"Now that the past is resolved, it's time to talk about the present and the future."

"Sir Ye Lan, please speak."

"It's still related to this guy. It's about the devil."

"Demon?" Ningguang frowned.

Chapter 140: Look directly at me, you bastard!

It was Lin Ye who answered Ningguang's doubts. He gave a brief summary of the grievances between Quan Tai and the Emperor, and his relationship with Mu Xiaojin.

After listening to this, Ningguang fell into deep thought.

The demon god resurrects and attacks Liyue Harbor.

Apart from listening to storytelling and watching Liyue opera, this seems to be a very long time ago. After the Demon War ended, there will basically be no more Demon outbreaks in Liyue. After all, the war that lasted for thousands of years has squandered all the Demon reserves.

"Master Linye, this matter is of great importance. I would like to hear your opinion." Ningguang pondered for a moment and did not immediately express her thoughts, but asked Linye in return.

Lin Ye is deeply involved with Quan Tai, and Ningguang wants to know what Lin Ye is planning.

As for Mu Xiaojin's plan, Ningguang, as the decision maker, cannot place all her hopes on one person.

"My opinion?" Lin Ye thought for a moment and replied, "When the time is right, I will go to Wuwangpo and stop Quantai from resurrecting."

“Do you want to solve it alone?” Ningguang frowned.

Linye shook his head at the speed of light.

"The head of the Wangsheng Hall, the disciple of Master Liuyun Jiefeng, the Zhong family of Tianheng Mountain, and the Great Sage who conquers demons, they will all come to help. They are all capable people with great abilities. I am not arrogant enough to deal with the demon god alone, even if it is just a sealed grudge."

"The Great Sage Who Conquers Demons?" Ningguang noticed a key word.

Lin Ye met another immortal.

After the True Lord Liuyunjiefeng, the True Lord Yixiaodaotian, and the Great Sage Conquering Demons, who’s next?
