Reading poems from Teyvat

Although it doesn't make any sense today.

He was not someone who could be judged using common sense.

Compared to all the strange looks and gazes he receives, the doubts about his age are just the most insignificant ones, right?

Even though Eula's heart was filled with such ripples, the light in her amber eyes was still clear and bright. She stared at the boy who was only a few feet away from her, perhaps hoping that he could give her an answer, give her hope, or even give her a new anchor point, so that she could continue to feel at ease after denying those messy chains.

But at this time, she only heard the young man whisper inexplicably: "You started this way, and you must end this way."

"What does it mean?"

"I just think that walking out of one cage and then rushing into another is not a good idea."

"But for people like you, isn't this world, this world, just a huge cage?"

Eula was able to respond in an unusually clear and organized manner.

Shen Zhigui couldn't even refute this statement.

In a sense, what Eula said was indeed right, because in such a world, perhaps he could indeed be free to a certain extent, but the towering barrier between his original world and Teyvat still stood, and there was no hope of breaking it in the foreseeable future. He would have to continue living in this huge cage for a long time in the future, so in this sense, Eula had never escaped from any cage from the beginning.

Although Shen Zhigui's words "You started with this, and you must end with this" only meant that she had such thoughts and was just using her feelings for him as another chain to bind herself, and she could deny the previous chain for the sake of this chain, and perhaps one day, she could deny this chain for the sake of the next chain?

Although this idea is purely unnecessary.

After all, if he really made up his mind, there were actually ways to tie this eldest daughter of the old aristocracy to his side forever, so that this tall and beautiful figure would never escape his sight.

But can he really make such a decision?

Although he had indeed expressed his vulgar thoughts directly in front of this person, and this person should have known about it long ago, but he still walked up without hesitation like he did now, but he was not sure, because maybe it was just that the eldest daughter of the old noble family was simply bewildered for a moment, so she did this. No one can guarantee that she will not get tired of living under the same roof with those people in the future, right?

Even Shen Zhigui himself was not mentally prepared for someone to completely "invade" his private space.

Although he had actually experienced that kind of life before, living with five other people in a small and cramped space, and having to endure the strange living habits of those "sons" every day, in the final analysis, it was only because he had to abide by such rules back then that he formed such a relationship with those people.

"But if she is already prepared, it would be even more unreasonable for me to hesitate, right?"

So Shen Zhigui finally went over without hesitation.

And when she felt the warmth of another person and her lips warming each other, Eula's eyes suddenly widened.

Chapter 6: If Heaven Has Feelings, It Will Grow Old (Part 2)

Liyue Harbor has remained peaceful recently.

In fact, for Liyue, a country ruled by the Rock King Morax, although there may be certain dangers in the wilderness, in Liyue Harbor, with Lady Ningguang and the other Seven Stars of Liyue, and the Thousand Rocks Army stationed there, this port has become one of the most prosperous cities in Teyvat. This is naturally because although there have been many small disturbances over the past thousands of years, they have been able to get through them safely.

So today is another day full of hope.

Originally, Baiwen just said this in his heart when he saw the people coming and going and the cloudless sky. But when he saw someone from afar, Baiwen felt that dark clouds suddenly floated over from the distant horizon, and it seemed that it would not be long before this clear cloudless sky would be covered by inky black clouds, and then bring wind and rain to this city which should have been calm.

The image of someone in Baiwen's mind has indeed always been like this.

Although someone helped her out when they first met.

But at that time, that person's face was pale, and it looked like he would soon die, so Bai Wen still had a faint pity for him at that time. But now seeing that this person is still alive and well, and seems to have been making trouble everywhere recently, although Bai Wen doesn't care much about what he has done in other countries, let alone understand it, but based on the fact that he dared to fight with Lord Ningguang and dared to win the battle, Bai Wen's impression of this person is only how to curse him to death -

Although the fact that he could defeat Ningguang in that state proved that he would not be defeated before Ningguang.

Not to mention, he had previously uncovered the Fatui in Liyue, and for this he seemed to have gained a certain amount of reputation in Liyue, although he looked like he didn't care at all. So when she saw him and the woman who was almost following him and dressed like a young lady from Mondstadt approaching, Bai Wen originally just wanted to avoid them, but thinking of Lady Ningguang's instructions, she finally held her nose and endured the disgust that arose in her heart, walked towards them, and called out to him:

"Hey!"

Someone pretended not to hear.

Instead, the noble-dressed young lady from Mond turned around and looked at her.

So Bai Wen stood next to someone and shouted again:

"Hey!"

At this time, the man turned his head, glanced at her, and then looked up at a certain place in the sky, as if there were some lines written there. Then he raised a finger and said, "First, I'm not saying hello."

Bai Wen wanted to say something immediately, but he saw him raise a second finger: "Second, never miss any bad thing."

Bai Wen was stunned, but he still saw him continue to extend the third finger: "Third, it's still fair!"

"Chief Dragonfly..."

"When did you get such a messed-up nickname as Dragonfly County Magistrate?"

Bai Wen finally reacted, and Shi immediately interrupted his nonsense and just said.

Shen Zhigui looked around, and then he really couldn't find the fun in playing such a joke that no one could understand, so he just said: "So, Miss Secretary of Lord Tianquanxing, why did you come to see me?"

Although Bai Wen felt that Shen Zhigui's address as "Miss Secretary of Lord Tianquanxing" was strange, she even felt that Shen Zhigui actually only remembered her identity, not her name, so he used that term. Of course, to be honest, she didn't think it was necessary for someone like Shen Zhigui to remember her name. Although that possibility still made her feel looked down upon, she still maintained a businesslike attitude on the surface: "Lord Tianquanxing said that if you come back, you can go find her first."

"why?"

"She wants to know your recent whereabouts and actions so that she can adjust the corresponding foreign policy."

"That being said, I don't think I need to report this to her, right?"

Shen Zhigui thought to himself that he was not that man's subordinate.

To be honest, isn't he from Keqing's faction?

Although it is doubtful whether such a faction actually exists.

When Bai Wen heard him say that, his eyebrows immediately stood up: "As Liyue..."

But when he said this, Bai Wen suddenly remembered that the person in front of him didn't seem to be a citizen of Liyue?

Although no matter how you look at it, it is very strange that this person can live in the home of Yuheng Star for a long time.

Not to mention that he seems to maintain a good personal relationship with Lady Ningguang and Miss Ganyu.

Although Bai Wen was actually unwilling to admit his personal relationship with Lord Ningguang, she didn't think that the down-and-out bard who had been living off the Yuhengxing family and flirting with others was qualified to be Lord Ningguang's personal friend. Although she did see with her own eyes that this man defeated Lord Ningguang, who controlled the entire Qun Yu Pavilion, with that weird martial arts, no matter how high his martial arts level was, it couldn't change the fact that he was a scumbag!

Although Lady Ningguang has always asked them, the spies, to raise their attention to this person to the highest level.

So after hesitating for a moment, Bai Wen quickly came up with a new excuse: "Since you are in the kingdom of Liyue, you have the obligation to cooperate with Lady Ningguang's work. Otherwise, I will have you expelled!"

As soon as she said this, both Shen Zhigui and Youla couldn't help but look at her with a bit of a sidelong glance. Although Bai Wen knew in her heart that it was not a good choice to be an enemy of the man in front of her, after all, with his high mobility shown in the duel with Lady Ningguang and his personal relationship with Lord Yuhengxing and Miss Ganyu, the order to expel him would not be passed, let alone conveyed to the Qianyan Army. Even if it was conveyed, it was still unknown whether the Qianyan Army could find him and really expel him. But she still said this to express her tough attitude: "So, please give priority to cooperating with Lady Ningguang's work and go to meet Lady Ningguang!"

"Although I am actually very curious whether you can do what you claim, but," Shen Zhigui shook his head, too lazy to argue with her. He also understood that Ningguang must have heard some rumors, so she wanted to find him to learn about the changes in Xumi and Zhidong. At the very least, it was only natural to learn about the recent developments of the two countries from him. So it seemed natural to meet the Lord of Tianquan Star. So he just looked in the direction of Qun Yu Pavilion and said absentmindedly, "It's not impossible to go see her first."

Chapter 7: Don’t let your poems become a prophecy (Part 1)

Seeing that Shen Zhigui was willing to give in - of course, neither Shen Zhigui nor Youla thought that what he said was a sign of giving in, but Bai Wen saw this and immediately seemed a little proud. So he thought of making Shen Zhigui suffer a little when he went to see Lord Ningguang and gave him some procedural difficulties so that he would remember not to be so rude to Lord Ningguang again. Then he coughed twice, cleared his throat, and put on an expression on his face that looked like he was doing his job impartially and inhumanely, but was actually a little arrogant inside, and said:

"Then, come with me."

"Why should I go with you?"

Shen Zhigui's eyes were still fixed on the Qun Yu Pavilion that was still floating above Liyue Harbor, so he did not see Bai Wen's expression. Although with his current senses, he could actually "see" it even without using his eyes, his attention was now almost entirely focused on the towering castle in the sky, so naturally he did not pay too much attention to the change in mentality of the secretary of Lord Tianquan Star. He just said.

Although Shen Zhigui sometimes knew that "it's easier to deal with the devil than with the devil", he really didn't need to care about the prejudice that his secretary had against him.

"Aren't you going to see Master Ningguang?"

"I don't need to go with you to see her," Shen Zhigui retracted his gaze, shook his head, turned his head to look at Youla, thought for a moment, and said, "You..."

"I'll go find Yan Fei first."

When Shen Zhigui heard her say that, he immediately nodded.

"You will also move out of Yuhengxing's house in the future, right?"

But Eula suddenly said.

"Well..."

Although Shen Zhigui felt that it was not impossible to continue living there, it was obvious that with his current interpersonal relationships, if he continued to live in Keqing's house, it would obviously cause problems for the reputation of Yuheng Star. Although Shen Zhigui felt that if Zhongli still wanted to carry out the test to the end, in the political turmoil such as the so-called "Emperor's Assassination", the little gossip between him and Keqing would probably be insignificant, but it was indeed not a solution to continue like this.

So he nodded.

Bai Wen, who was standing nearby, heard the conversation between the two men and immediately looked back and forth between them. Then he fixed his eyes on the young man suspiciously:

Judging from what these two people said, could it be that this man has already secretly married the noble lady from Mond, so now he is ready to draw a clear line with that Yuhengxing and move out of her house?

snort!

Men really don’t have a good thing!

Bai Wen immediately cursed in his heart very decisively.

But she soon realized that after defeating Lady Ningguang, hadn't this man yelled something like "The tide has come in Liyue Harbor, and today I know who I am", claiming that he was no longer the same person as yesterday, so he didn't want to follow the secular moral laws, so he had been secretly flirting with Lord Yuhengxing, Miss Shenhe, and even Miss Ganyu? Although the secretaries who worked with Ganyu in Yuehai Pavilion were all persuading Ganyu to cherish her life and stay away from scum, this fresh scum had been homeless recently, wandering around in various countries in Teyvat, and obviously had no time to get along with Ganyu, so Baiwen felt that the vague feelings between them would soon disappear, and this pretty boy would either stay in a distant country or be buried in a foreign land, and in any case, he would never appear in Ganyu's life again.

It would not let Lady Ningguang pay so much attention to him.

But what is going on with him now?

Bai Wen's eyes became more suspicious, but she really couldn't understand this person's thinking, nor did she understand to what level his martial arts had improved recently. Although according to her common sense, no matter how fast the martial arts progress of ordinary people is, there will be an upper limit, and if that upper limit is not as long as the life of an immortal, it is absolutely not enough to reach it with the accumulation of such a short time. So she could only conclude that the person in front of her might be more familiar with his power that could turn the bird from a living state into ashes in an instant. If that was all, if she used the system of Liyue, it might not be impossible to suppress it. So she put aside the extra thoughts for the time being, just wanting Shen Zhigui to step into the big net woven by Lord Ningguang with Mora and power, and just said:

"Then go and try to see if you can continue to use the previous password!"

She was thinking that the password for the passage from Yujingtai to Qun Yuge had been changed. Although if Shen Zhigui really wanted to use it, he could just ask Lady Keqing and Miss Ganyu directly, but if she gave instructions in advance, it might not cause him some trouble. Although she would have to ask Lady Ningguang in advance, Lady Ningguang should be happy to see it succeed.

Although you will probably be sued by then.

Then I would probably just be scolded in a pretentious manner by Lady Ningguang.

Because I think Lady Ningguang also wants to teach this unscrupulous scum a lesson so that she can successfully control the sword in his hand, right?

Bai Wen became even more proud when she thought about Shen Zhigui running to find her after being bullied, so she couldn't help but narrow her eyes slightly. When she came to her senses, she found that in just a short while, Shen Zhigui's figure had completely disappeared, and even his breath remained in the same place. However, no matter how she turned her eyes, she could not distinguish that person from the people around her!

It was as if he had jumped into another world out of thin air.

"What about others?"

Bai Wen couldn't help but ask questions to the strange noble lady who was suspected to be from Mond.

"We should have arrived by now, right?"

Eula just glanced at her and said.

"Are you there?"

"The Jade Pavilion of your Lord Tianquan Star."

It's not that Eula knew nothing about Liyue. In fact, because her good friend Yan Fei had to argue with the Tianquan Star over legal issues, she was actually very familiar with the Tianquan Star, who had an extremely prominent status and presence among the Seven Stars of Liyue and even had his own separate office space. So she naturally knew the name of the Qun Yu Pavilion.

Although the most prominent among the Seven Stars of Liyue are actually Tianquan Star and Yuheng Star, the rest seem to have no reputation.

"You say he has gone there now?"

When Baiwen heard what Youla said, she was stunned for a long time, as if she was struck by lightning. After a long time, she came to her senses and asked again.

Rationally, she knew that this was absolutely impossible. How could a normal person fly such a long distance in such a short time and reach there directly? Even if the Lord Yuhengxing wanted to condense the lightning wedge, it was impossible for him to perform that move continuously to train the trajectory into a straight long line leading to there!

But as his travel companion, this person should be more aware of his abilities, so there is no need for her to lie to herself.

So, that person really went directly to the Qun Yu Pavilion?

Is that why he said he didn't need to go with him?

Baiwen stood there and began to doubt his life.

Chapter 8: Don’t Let Poems Become Prophecies (Part 2)

Now Shen Zhigui certainly didn't need to go through any passage to get to the Jade Pavilion, although he could have done this a long time ago. However, at that time, he didn't need to see the Lord of Tianquan Star again, so he was too lazy to climb up this sky-high pavilion. Of course, Shen Zhigui was too lazy to tease the guards of the Jade Pavilion, so he didn't appear on the platform outside the pavilion and then be guided by someone to enter. Instead, he went directly into the room of the pavilion and made eye contact with the powerful, white-haired, red-eyed, and luxuriously dressed Tianquan Star, whose exact age could not be seen:

"I heard you have something to talk to me about?"

The secretary who was helping Ningguang deal with affairs suddenly felt as if he was facing a great enemy when Shen Zhigui suddenly appeared. A nervous look appeared on his face. He was about to shout out that there was an assassin and ask the guards outside to come in and arrest Shen Zhigui.

But Ningguang just stretched out her hand and pressed it down lightly, signaling them to be patient and calm their thoughts. She wanted these people to understand that the guards outside were just decorations after all. The only person who could control this pavilion was Ningguang herself. If she was not a match for the man in front of her, if the other party really wanted to assassinate her, she would probably have been beheaded long ago.

Even though Ningguang knew that she was no match for this man, she was still amazed at Shen Zhigui's improvement in martial arts. Her ruby-like eyes sparkled:

She knew very well that if the opponent had the same elusive speed as now, the victory or defeat would be decided in an instant, without having to test each other back and forth like before to find each other's limits and let him find her flaws to decide the outcome.

The more Shen Zhigui showed rapid progress, the more she felt that he was indeed closer to her definition of "infinity" than Mora, so she just smiled and said to him, "It's been a long time since we last met. Mr. Shen Zhigui has become more and more elusive. I wonder what level your martial arts have improved to after so many trips?"

"You want to be weighed again?"

Shen Zhigui asked directly.

When Ningguang heard Shen Zhigui's question, she hesitated for a moment, but finally shook her head.

She knew her own strengths and weaknesses. If she had not been able to win the battle easily and decisively before, and was defeated by this young man who had found a flaw, then the young man who had achieved this level now was obviously not at a level that she could measure with her hands. However, she was still curious, so she said, "Although it seems inappropriate to ask this, I still want to ask, who is better between you and the demon-conquering great sage now?"
