The treasure thieves of Teyvat rob Shenhe

However, there is another way to confirm whether Lin is gone, said Hu Tao.

"There is a place where maybe I can find Lin."

"where?"

Hu Tao came forward and whispered in Shen He's ear, saying a place - the border.

The border is the place of reincarnation, but there are also people who linger here for a long time because of their obsessions in their previous lives.

Shen He understood what Hu Tao meant. She clenched her palms, suppressed the anxiety in her heart, and nodded.

"Walnut, can you take me there?"

"I need to prepare. An old man is going to pass away in a few days..." said Hu Tao.

"I can wait."

"Well, it's agreed."

Walnut leaves.

Xiangling was curious about what Hu Tao said. Seeing Shen He's lost look, she didn't ask much. Based on Xiangling's understanding of Hu Tao's career, she could roughly guess what she had said.

While waiting for Hu Tao, Shen He continued to work as usual and prepared for the worst...even though it was unacceptable.

While walking on the street, a man called Shen He.

Looking back, I saw it was a young man.

The young man bowed, an unnatural expression on his face, as if he was not used to this kind of thing, and he passed on the message.

"Aunt, my parents have always wanted to meet you. Can you please not refuse them this time?"

The young man is Chongyun. The Chong family is a family of exorcists from Tianheng Mountain, and the Shenhe family is a branch.

In other words, Shen He and Chong Yun's family are relatives.

In the past, Chongyun invited Shenhe to come home on behalf of his father to get together and keep in touch, but Shenhe always declined in her own way.

Shen He looked at Chongyun and recalled Chongyun's parents. They were very good elders, not rigid and strict, but Shen He was naive and did not understand the superficial rules and customary human relationships in the world. He was very averse to meeting his elders.

Especially since she went to the appointment alone.

If there was someone she trusted by her side at this time, Shen He thought she might have the courage to face all kinds of things in the world and deal with them calmly.

Ying was busy in Xumi and didn't know if she had the time to return to Liyue Harbor to help.

So, Shen He wants to...

accepted.

Not only Chongyun was surprised, but Shenhe himself was also surprised.

It was a completely subconscious action. She just smiled and said softly, "Okay."

Chongyun seized the opportunity and immediately told Shenhe the time and place. Without waiting for Shenhe to find a way to refuse, he showed a joyful smile... which made Shenhe silent.

Shen He and Chong Yun chatted for a while. They had few topics to talk about and neither of them was like Hu Tao. They discussed a few things about cultivation and then said goodbye to each other.

It's impolite to disturb you.JPG

Shen He watched Chongyun disappear into the crowd, and he himself was also swept away by the huge crowd.

At dusk, the sky was glowing red in the distance, a cool breeze was blowing slowly, people were flowing like tides, and all kinds of noisy sounds came to my ears.

In the vast universe and among the countless living beings, Shen He felt an unprecedented loneliness in his heart, as if he had lost his own shadow, as if he was missing the other half of the world. He wanted to shout, to call out someone's name, but the words were stuck in his lips and he couldn't utter them. The pain like a thorn in his throat made Shen He burst into tears.

林，

Who are you...

A few days later, Hu Tao took Shen He to the border of Wuwangpo. They both asked for leave. One of them approved the leave note for herself, and the other went to her friend's father to get as many days of leave as she wanted.

Starting from the north gate of Liyue Harbor, passing Guiliyuan, you can rest at Wangshu Inn in Dihuazhou, and then go north to Wuwangpo.

Dihuazhou, Wangshu Inn.

Hu Tao asked for two guest rooms, one for her and one for Shen He.

After finding a place to stay, Hu Tao took Shen He out to dinner, ordered a table full of delicious food, and while sipping tea, she inquired about Lin's news.

It would be best to find Lin before reaching Wuwangpo.

Dihuazhou is close to Wuwangpo, and this place was once the battlefield of the war between demons and gods. There is no shortage of strange stories circulating here. What is the most popular thing in recent years?

It was not that the Great Sage who subdued demons appeared before him, but that the Chilong of Wuwangpo was resurrected. The stone spear of the Emperor pierced through the sky and once again suppressed the evil creatures that were causing harm and chaos.

You see, the rocky hills and peaks rising from the river to the east of Dihuazhou are the result of the mighty power of Lord Rock in subduing the Chilong, and have become a landscape.

Hu Tao listened with great interest and took two bites of peanuts.

Shen He remained silent. She felt that something the diner said was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on what was wrong, and the sense of disharmony became stronger and stronger.

After leaving Wangshu Inn, it took Shen He half a month to reach Wuwangpo. On the way, the scenery of Dihuazhou was so beautiful that he had no intention of appreciating it.

Wuwangpo is a ghostly place in the underworld. Legend has it that it is used to suppress evil spirits. Later, Chilong appeared from the sky, proving the legend to be true. As Chilong was resurrected from the border and smashed the entrance between the two worlds, many evil spirits ran out, making the Demon-Subduing Sage and Hu Tao very busy.

Walnut also has plans to check the border gates this time.

boundary.

Shen He is looking for Lin at the entrance. Mortals should not easily enter the depths, otherwise they will get lost and never return to the human world. Hu Tao warns and stops Shen He from doing stupid things.

They stayed there for a week and asked many ghosts, but none of them knew the answer to Lin.

"Don't be disappointed, this means he is still alive." Walnut comforted.

It is also possible that Lin died without regrets and had already been reincarnated.

Walnut didn't say this out loud.

"let's go."

After Shen He finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave when he heard someone say.

"Are you giving up so soon?"

Hu Tao's eyes widened as she saw a woman actually walking out from deep within the border. She looked indescribably noble, and her black pupils were dull. That was because the passage to the eighteenth level of hell could not be easily opened.

"Don't speak, don't answer." Hu Tao pulled Shen He back and whispered. She felt her pores contracting and she was trembling with fear as if she was being forced by some invisible pressure.

What a terrifying ghost this must be.

There is no 78th generation successor yet, and Master Hu does not want to explain today.

Then, Hu Tao failed to pull it away, and she struggled with her small body, but Shen He stared at the woman like a possessed person, and she asked.

"Do you know Lin?"

"I don't know." The woman answered frankly, without the slightest sense of shame.

"But I know that my memory has been tampered with, as have yours and the entire world," the woman smiled as beautifully as a flower, communicating with Shen He. "I don't know what has been modified, but I still remember the prophecy from long ago."

"You are the one who is looking for him, so you are the most important person to break the deadlock." The woman said solemnly, "He needs your help now."

"Then how can I find him? How can I help him?" Shen He was unusually anxious.

Walnut on the side was confused.

The woman spread her hands and said half gloatingly and half meaningfully.

"He is not related to me. You are the one who gets along with him and builds a relationship with him. Tell me, how do you pick up the lost memories?"

Shen He thought for a moment and said softly.

"I will keep looking, Liyue, Mondstadt, Inazuma, Xumi, Fontaine..."

"My intuition tells me that he has been to many places, and I am following his footsteps, looking for every moment I spent with him. When I see something, I am reminded of it, and there are always clues."

The woman nodded with satisfaction.

"very good."

"But I have to remind you that you are just an ordinary person. The fact that you remember that you forgot someone is incredible to me."

"You may spend a long life without any result. What effect will it have on your life if you forget him? You are still alive and well. The world will compensate you. The one who came is you. Why waste the happiness you already have to gamble on finding someone who is insignificant?"

“It’s not insignificant!!”

For the first time, Shen He showed an angry expression on her face, followed by extreme sadness and loneliness, and she whispered pityingly.

“He is the most important person in my life.”

Even if she had forgotten Lin and didn't know her relationship with him, Shen He's instincts and emotions could answer her.

All the changes in himself were by no means taken for granted. Shen He seemed to see a person whose face he could not see clearly. It was he who was working hard.

Shen He is very grateful for this...

…and love him too.

Chapter 649: After so many years, the good times and beautiful scenery are gone

Shen He and Hu Tao left Wuwang Slope and returned along the same route, saying goodbye to each other at Wangshu Inn. Shen He was going to Aozang Mountain to meet his master and give him instructions, and then he would start a long journey.

Aozang Mountain is located among the clouds. Shen He is familiar with this place and has lived here for more than ten years. The scenery of the mountains, rivers, grasses and trees is beautiful, which is suitable for a free and easy person to live in seclusion.

She was never as carefree and contented as an immortal, but was forced by fate to live in seclusion in the woods and mountains.

Shen He met Master Liuyun Jiefeng and told him her plan, which shocked the fairy bird greatly.

"Shen He, didn't you go to Xumi with the travelers? Why did you come back?" Liu Yun asked.

"Master, two months ago."

“…No one will accompany you on this journey. You have already learned all the rules of the human world. This is a test for you. Your master will not stop you.” Liu Yun sighed and said gently.

"And... (10,000 words omitted here)."

When his own child was about to sail far away, Liu Yun did not put on airs, but showed the love and care of an elder by giving him many instructions and warnings.

Shen He listened carefully and nodded from time to time.

After staying in Ao Zang Mountain for a month, the autumn is getting deeper and the cold winter is getting closer. The sea of trees in Ao Zang Mountain is golden, with dead branches and leaves. From time to time, squirrels pop out their heads, looking for food reserves for the winter.

Shen He said goodbye to Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun. According to the plan, she would first tour the beautiful mountains and rivers of Liyue, and then go to Mondstadt, Inazuma and other countries.

This is a stupid method. Shen He doesn't know where she and Lin have been together and left such deep memories, so Shen He decides to travel across the seven countries and search for her like Ying did when she was looking for her brother.

However, Ying still had to spend a lot of effort to find out Kong's whereabouts, and Shen He was facing even more difficulties in finding someone who had been forgotten by the world.

Before traveling, Shen He will return to Liyue Harbor to meet Chongyun's family.

Shen He got along quite well with Chongyun's family. He knew the etiquette and was not like the ones in the game who would never stop saying shocking things. Chongyun's parents invited Shen He to live with them, but Shen He declined.

After leaving Xinyuexuan, Shen He felt tired. It was indeed tiring to meet with relatives. Interpersonal relationships were truly an energy-consuming thing.

Next, Shen He went to Wanmin Hall to resign. After all, he didn’t know when he would return next time, so he didn’t want to delay Xiangling’s family’s business.

After Xiangling and Master Mao learned about this, they respected Shen He's choice just like Master Liuyun Jiefeng. They tried to understand that Shen He was looking for a very important person rather than a stranger he had never met before.

This is the truth, but it is difficult for the forgotten to remember that the two were made for each other and were unique to each other.

"The journey is long, there is no need to rush," Master Mao said, looking at the first snow of the year falling outside. "Why not wait until the beginning of next spring to pray for a good omen and celebrate the Lantern Festival."

Shen He thought about it and agreed.

Although she couldn't wait to find Lin, she also knew that she couldn't be impatient and that it all depended on fate, and fate was not afraid of time.

Shen He spent the third Lantern Festival in Liyue Harbor. Ying, who was far away in Xumi, came back. After hearing about Shen He's plan, she didn't say anything, but a single word of "come on" expressed Ying's thoughts.

Ying remembered (), due to the pollution of forbidden knowledge, she could not tell Shen He the destination of the journey. It was really suffocating to be unable to speak of something.

On the night of the Lantern Festival, Ying watched Shen He's back as he watched the thousands of fireworks rising up alone. She had a premonition that perhaps her fate with Shen He was supposed to be intertwined, but now it was not.

In the early spring, Shen He went to Chenyu Valley, Lisha Suburb and other places. Her world before was Ao Zang Mountain, and she traveled in this small forest. But now Shen He's world is the whole world. She moves forward all the way, not afraid of wind and rain, and when she meets someone in need of help, she helps them with just a little effort. Because of the change in her character, the name of witch and enchantress is no longer spread, on the contrary, the name of goddess becomes more and more famous.

The parties involved didn't take it seriously.

In midsummer, Shen He came to Mondstadt, the city of knights and pastoral songs.

Different liveliness from Liyue Harbor, but equally prosperous.

Shen He strolled along the street. She had been here once before for Ying and was quite familiar with the place. After thinking about it, she decided to go to Mondstadt Cathedral to ask for a blessing from the God of Wind, although Shen He only believed in her own judgment.

Mond Cathedral, sacred and solemn.
