In Yuanshen, no one understands holy relics better than me

"I even complained why I was so stupid to use my own money to buy food relief, but after the God's Eye was confiscated, none of these relief people understood him..."

"When oppressed by rioting people, he would even threaten with force, which completely violated the family precepts of benevolence and righteousness..."

"Just now, he told me in great pain that he felt that he could not be a good person, nor could he be a bad person..."

"I gave him money and asked him to carry out food relief work on my behalf. I think he will do it well, but these are just my orders, not from his former benevolence and righteousness..."

Even Ayaka Kamisato has moments of extreme emotion.

After seeing Senior Domon's insanity, Kurosawa Kyonosuke's pain, and Teshima-san's confusion, Kanli Ayaka may also be infected and unable to control her emotions.

"Your Excellency Huasanli."

She looked at Xia Tian and said sadly: "The eyes of gods should be rewards from gods, right? Why has it become a tool for punishment now? Righteousness, love, faith... Things that were once deeply rooted are so easy The same god's eye was also taken away."

"It's as if those emotions and beliefs don't belong to me, but are imposed by the eyes of God... That's why they are lost together."

Kansato Linghua held the ice-blue God's Eye, her fingers trembling a little, with a bitter smile on her lips: "When I think of this occasionally, even I will feel afraid of the God's Eye, if my God's Eye My eyes will be confiscated one day, and I have forgotten everything about it, so will my wish, everything I do now, be meaningless?"

Looking up, the sadness in the pupils is beyond words.

Xia Tian really wanted to touch her cheek and bring her comfort, but his current status did not allow it.

"Maybe personally, it will lose meaning? Because if you forget, you will have nothing... This is a cruel fact."

It can be seen that when Xia Tian said these words, Shenli Linghua's eyes became dim, but then lit up again, as if seeing a beacon of hope.

"However, to the world, what you do is always there."

"Those poor people are living well now, isn't it the hard work of Kurosawa Kyonosuke? Without his relief, these poor people may be displaced, and even starve to death on the side of the road... What he did, even if he Forgot , even if you and I forget, even if everyone forgets, but no one can veto his past benevolence... So, it is definitely not meaningless."

"It's like the scene where you and I met, maybe one day I will forget it and never mention it again, but the thing that you and I met will never change."

……

The sound of the wheels rolling is particularly clear, because the cabin is too quiet.

In fact, halfway through Xia Tian's speech, Kamisato Linghua already regretted saying those things. As the eldest lady of the society, she shouldn't show her weak and confused side to outsiders.

But in the end, she still didn't ask Xia Tian to stop, and she heard it until the end.

"perhaps……"

Maybe we can be friends?

Nothing was said.

Kanli Ayaka didn't want to continue talking about her cowardly side, so she changed the topic back.

"When His Royal Highness promulgated the Eye Hunting Order and the Seclusion Order, he said that this would give Inazuma eternity..."

"I originally thought that confiscating the Eye of God would make the people more equal to a certain extent... From this point of view, although the method is too extreme, it is understandable..."

"However, what we have seen, after being deprived of the God's Eye, not only lost their power, but also their own wishes. Isn't this very strange?"

This is what Kansato Linghua wants to figure out the most. If there are no sequelae of losing faith, then for most people, it is not unreasonable for the gods to confiscate the God's Eye.

Xia Tian pondered for a moment, and expressed his own opinion: "Perhaps, what General Thunder and Lightning thinks is eternity, what he thinks will hinder eternity, is not the inequality among the people, but those blazing desires..."

Kansato Linghua was taken aback for a moment, a little puzzled: "Huh?"

Xia Tian said: "Absolute eternity does not exist. This world cannot be static. As long as people still have expectations, they will work hard for the expectations in their hearts. These efforts will inevitably lead to the development of the world in a good direction..."

"The Mond people were oppressed by the high tower emperor before, and then created a free Mond. Liyue also went through several twists and turns. The city built by Guiliyuan was flooded before returning to Liyue Port. Today's "golden port", these are all because of their desire for a "better life", so they changed the world..."

"I think, the current rice wife is not the old rice wife, right? It must be because of people's wishes, so the rice wife has the prosperity and beauty now..."

Listening to Xia Tian's words, Kansato Linghua's heart became clear: "You mean, His Royal Highness thinks that those fiery desires are the enemies that hinder the eternity? So she did not confiscate the God's Eye for the purpose of confiscating the God's Eye. power, but to outlaw people's wishes?"

"Maybe it's both!" Xia Tian casually echoed, and didn't continue to express his thoughts at length.

Because, what I think about next should belong to the level of "disrespect" for people who believe in gods!

It's better not to speak easily.

Kanli Linghua also knew everything, put aside those serious topics and sorrows, smiled sweetly, and said: "Your Excellency Huasanli obviously doesn't have the Eye of God, but you know so much about the Eye of God, it's amazing !"

This girl, is she deliberately probing again?

Xia Tian scratched his head, telling the truth: "Well, I have quite a few friends who have the Eye of God, and they have shared with me some stories about getting the Eye of God."

Ayaka Kansato also wanted to hear those stories, but unfortunately, there probably was no time.

Suddenly thought of something, invited: "Your Excellency Huasanli, you have gone to Daozuma City, before parting, can you accompany me to a place first?"

Xia Tian asked very vigilantly: "Isn't it meeting the friend you promised?"

That definitely won't work, Ying is considerate and might help conceal it, but Big Mouth Paimon will definitely betray him.

Maybe it has already been guessed, but as long as it is not pointed out, this fake "Huasanli" drama will continue!

Kanli Linghua covered her mouth with a folding fan and smiled slightly: "Hehe, you seem a little nervous?"

He didn't make a fool of himself, but made it clear: "I'm taking you to visit a newly built statue of a god. Maybe you can solve some of your doubts after going to see it..."

Chapter 670 Seven Eternal Lies

At the end of the driveway, there are upward scattered steps ahead, and private vehicles are not allowed in the city, so you can only choose to walk.

There is a plank road built on the side of the residential area, which can be used by ordinary freight carriages, but after the promulgation of the Eye Hunting Order, you must obtain permission from the shogunate if you want to use it. You can find someone to carry the goods up, and you don't want to communicate with the shogunate.

Ayaka Kamisato represented the shrine and was an official of the shogunate. It was not difficult to get a pass, but she still chose to park the carriage at Hanamizaka.

One is that she is driving her private carriage for this trip, so it is not easy to occupy public resources, and the other is that she also wants to take a simple stroll in the city, so that she can see what happened to Dao's wife who hasn't been here for a while.

The biggest change is that it has become quite deserted.

There are almost no foreigners on the road, and the locals try to go out as little as possible. Many shops along the street have been closed... Such an atmosphere, even if there is a temple fair, it can't be saved, right?

Seeing all this, Kanli Linghua felt extremely uncomfortable, and she became more determined to change the current situation.

There will be people coming to greet her. Naturally, she can't write the depression in her heart on her face. She has learned how to keep a smile naturally.

While being welcomed by passers-by, I still don’t forget to introduce Chao Xia’s experience of Inazuma City, just like a caring lady tour guide.

"The area of ​​Inazuma Castle is divided into the lower "Hanamizaka" and the higher "Machi Street"..."

"Seeing that you haven't carried any weapons with you, you can choose one. In the current turmoil, it is still necessary to have regular weapons for self-defense..."

"I highly recommend the Tenmoku Blacksmithing House in Hanamizaka... Inazuma's knife forging technique, there is a saying of "Raiden Five Legends", and "Tenmoku-ryu" is one of them! "

"If you want to taste Inazuma's special dishes, you can go to the "Shicunya" in the shopping street, which is one of the most popular restaurants in Inazuma... Don't look at it as a small store, the taste inside But it's a big deal! "

"..."

Perhaps because of the imminent parting, in the last period of time, Ayaka Kamisato spoke more words than in the previous day, not only told a lot of little knowledge about Inazuma Castle, but also listed some recommendations shop.

The two of them didn't stop because of the smell of street food. Before parting, Ayaka Kamisato had a place that she wanted to take "Hanasanli" to see.

Based on your view of the God's Eye in Huasanli, maybe after seeing it, you can get a new understanding... Maybe it can help me understand the mind of His Royal Highness.

With that in mind, step up to the last steps of the shopping street.

As long as you live on Narugami Island, you can't ignore the huge monster under construction-"The Statue of Thousand Hands and Hundred Eyes".

When Xia Tian first heard the name of this statue, he thought it was similar to "Thousand-handed Avalokitesvara", with many hands behind his back, and each hand has a god's eye, which can see all the filth in the world.

In fact, it is similar, that is, the thousand hands are replaced with a wing decoration similar to the upward movement.

The statue is a woman sitting upright, so it should be His Royal Highness, right?

Probably because of wearing a cloak, there is no detailed description of the face, only rough facial features, and no beauty or ugliness can be seen.

The statue is not considered majestic, but lowered its head, it is very pious, and the performance should be a vision of praying for blessings. Perhaps the stubborn His Royal Highness of the Great Imperial Palace really has a good policy that benefits the country and the people. , so it was ordered to be implemented.

Most of the statues have been completed, and the plank road platforms built for masonry have not been removed, allowing people to walk closer.

There are no guards, this statue should be the same as the statue of Barbatos in the Zephyr Square in Mond City, and it can be admired by people, but for some reason, there is always a chilling atmosphere around it, and no one dares to approach it .

When Xia Tian walked over, he could clearly feel the gazes of the locals and those patrolling guards in the distance. If Miss Shenli was not with him, he would definitely be taken away for questioning.

Look up, look up.

On the uplifting wing decoration, there are many eye-like holes, and the eyes of gods are embedded there.

These god's eyes did not seem to be around the master, they were all dim, but they did not turn into ordinary stones like losing their master.

Xia Tian roughly took a look, almost all of them were inlaid, only the last hole was left. This statue is called Thousand Hands and Hundred Eyes Statue, which means that General Thunder has collected 99 God's Eyes.

"Is the confiscated God's Eye embedded here?" Xia Tian probably understood why Shenli Linghua brought him here.

Kamisato Ayaka nodded: "Yes... As you said before, maybe the general believes that the eye of God can provide the people with the power to "change", and the "eternity" in the general's eyes cannot allow such "instability" It existed, so they sent the subordinates of "Tianling Pursuit" to collect it everywhere, and embedded the eyes of gods into this statue one by one... This "Statue of Thousand Hands and Hundred Eyes" may be regarded as what the general thought Inazuma's symbol of "eternity"! "

Eternity, what a beautiful liar.

It has appeared countless times to tell you the eternal beauty, and you will not find its falsehood until you are so fascinated that you can't extricate yourself.

The seven earthly rulers of the Tivat continent, Xia Tian has no doubts about their love for the people, and believes that no matter what strange behavior they do, it is to bring happiness to the people.

However, if the love of the gods is too autocratic and arbitrary, and does not listen to the voices and expectations of the people, the so-called happiness will definitely turn into disaster.

People cannot understand each other, let alone gods and people. The happiness recognized by gods is not necessarily acceptable to the people...

In fact, Xia Tian is quite polite, for example, he respects immortals, and even looks a little cowardly.

However, the two gods he met were very unreliable, so he didn't have much recognition of the status of the gods, so he criticized mercilessly: "Whether this General Thunder and Lightning is good or bad, causing Dao's wife For the current situation, she can hardly absolve herself of the blame..."

Kansato Ayaka said ashamedly: "Only a foreigner like you dares to criticize General Raiden's actions so outspokenly... The friends I will meet later are from other than Inaozuma. reliable……"

"Ying is indeed very enthusiastic, and Paimeng is willing to do any job as long as it is given food..."

Maybe it was because they were too excited to see Ying and Paimeng soon, so they slipped out of control, and Xia Tian hurriedly added an explanation: "Cough, cough, those who dare to come to Dao's wife at this time should be very enthusiastic and bold." guy?"

Kamisato Linghua covered her mouth and chuckled, remembering the interesting incident not long ago: "Hehe, at first, I was rejected outright and neatly! She said she came to find clues to her brother and wanted to meet General Raiden, so she didn't want to Inexplicably, he became an enemy and a wanted criminal..."

"Eh?" Xia Tian was taken aback, she didn't expect Ying to reject others, she couldn't help imagining the picture and tone, and then smiled to help say something nice: "Well, you really have to think about resisting the gods of a country for no reason. "

Judging from the smile of Ayaka Kamisato, she must have agreed in the end.

really.

"After learning about Dao's wife, they finally agreed to my request...and told me that a more reliable friend will come to Dao's wife in the near future, and I am going to meet that friend today..."

Speaking of this, Kanli Linghua paused for a while, and then asked deliberately: "Your Excellency Huasanli, do you think that friend will agree to me? Will he agree to help Dao's wife who is now in dire straits? "

"Yes...if he knows Miss Shenli's affection for Inazuma, I believe he will definitely agree."

Xia Tian raised his hand to hold the mask, hesitating whether to confess at this time, after all, the other party has already guessed it with a high probability, so there is no need to play this kind of childish trick of "you know what I know, just don't pierce it".

If you don't apologize now, you may never have a chance. Wouldn't you want to lie to her for the rest of your life?

But in the end, he withdrew his hand and said, "Maybe, he also has a friend like me. I told him to protect Dao's wife, maybe it is!"

The hand that left the mask had no place to rest, and touched the thigh of the idol, which was as smooth as skin, but cold and without warmth.

Uh.

Suddenly, I have a splitting headache.

It seems that there are countless messages output from the idol, which exceeds the load that the brain can bear.

Xia Tian withdrew his hand abruptly, and took a half step back in panic.

With a fox mask, you can't see his painful appearance, but the flustered and head-covering movements made Kanli Ayaka come forward worriedly: "What's wrong?"

After being held by the hand, the girl's warmth and fragrance brought her consciousness back from the blur.

"What was that... just now?" Xia Tian murmured to himself, hearing a lot of mixed noises just now.

Kansato Linghua looked around and said in confusion, "There's no sound!"

After resting with the support for a few minutes, Xia Tian sorted out the voices he heard: "I seem to have heard the "wish" of others. "

Looking at the statue again: "... those wishes are embedded in this statue along with the eyes of God."

"desire?"

When this word is associated with God's Eye, Kanli Linghua can't help but think of the most commonly said sentence about God's Eye.

When a person's desire is strong to a certain extent, the sight of the gods will be projected on him, and the god's eye will be bestowed on him.

Xia Tian can probably be sure: "It seems that what is embedded in the statue is not only the eye of God, but also the desire to gain the sight of the god... After the eye of god is embedded in the statue, those wishes will be restored from the memory of the original owner. stripped away, and that's why they forget."

"Is that so..." Kansato Ayaka respected His Royal Highness Ogosho very much, and had come to pay respects to the statue several times before, but had never reached out to touch it.

After listening to Xia Tian's statement, she stretched her hand forward, but she didn't feel anything, it was just an ordinary statue in front of her.
