So if I now pick out the three strongest lions from the group of lions to restrain the lion king, can the remaining lions eat all the sheep?

Liyue is now like a group of sheep waiting to be eaten. All you need to do is make the other four or five gods owe you a favor, pin you down, or even seal you away, and then you can carve up Liyue at will.

You should also know that there are other continents, right? Are the gods of other continents as friendly as those of Teyvat?"

Zhongli's pupils shrank. This was the question that person had asked back then. It had been a long, long time since he had thought about things outside of this world.

In the same universe, the arrival of outsiders is only a matter of time. The strength of those Herrschers next door is not weak either, and there are more civilizations in more distant places.

Although he is the strongest martial god, he can still fight one against two or one against three. But if he fights one against five, and threatens the people of Liyue, the end result will be death or being sealed.

Seeing Zhongli holding the teacup for a long time without moving, Lin Zixuan knew that as the god who had lived the longest, he knew a lot of things but would not say them out loud.

He looked at Lin Zixuan with interest and asked, "How did you come up with these ideas?"

"There was once a country that was crippled in this way. That country was very rich and indulged in its past glory. Then ten countries came together to attack and break through the country.

In the end, they paid a bloody lesson and reduced the national population by 80% before they were able to regain some of their territory. This was roughly equivalent to the fact that all the territory north of Hengshan Mountain in Liyuetian was occupied.

At this point, the country understood a truth: if you fall behind, you will be beaten. It wanted to keep up with the pace of development in the world, but it was suppressed by all parties, with various technical bottlenecks and supply cuts. It took the country many years to catch up with the second echelon.

When you make progress, others are also making crazy progress. "

"It seems that you are really not from this world."

"??? Is there something wrong with where you are focusing?"

"I have been all over Teyvat, but I have never seen a country like this. But I do know something about the situation outside Teyvat, and it is possible.

And you said it yourself, you have only been in Liyue for a short time! According to my investigation, your ancestors are only from Konoha Village, and your family has moved to Liyue and lived there for at least 10 years. "

"It's not my intention to come here. Now I just want to go back. My family is over there."

"God won't allow this!"

"I'm waiting for an opportunity, for someone to appear in ten years and break this shackle."

"Then I'll choose to retire in ten years!"

"Can't you retire early? Wouldn't it be better to start the Immortal Talisman Revolution early? Why must it be ten years later?"

"My intuition tells me that many interesting things will happen in Liyue in the future."

Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

Five p.m.

So hungry! So full! So bloated!

I spent 4 hours drinking tea with Zhongli. Whenever he wanted to leave, the old man would always try to stop him. As time went by, this feeling of déjà vu would...

The waiter said, "My dear guests, we are going to open for dinner. The total cost is 50000 Mora. So who will pay for the meal?"

Lin Zixuan glanced at the old man who was drinking tea calmly across from him. The old man didn't even raise his eyelids.

"Why did I become Zhongli's ATM? Isn't this what the young master of the Winter Kingdom should do?"

......

Zhongli looked at Lin Zixuan's receding figure and took a sip of tea: "Did that person finally succeed?"

Chapter 5 Clues Confirmed

I am in such a difficult situation!!! I feel like my stomach is full of tea.

After paying the bill and escaping from the clutches of the old man, I finally arrived at Wanmin Hall, near the window at the entrance.

Look what I found? A little Xiangling is cooking alone!!!

"Xiangling, Xiangling! Give me a Teyvat omelette. I want you to make it yourself! And two servings of rice balls."

"Okay, but big brother, I don't think I know you. Please go in and sit down first."

"My name is Lin Zixuan, and I will come to Wanmin Hall often in the future. I'll go in first!"

She found a random seat and sat down. At this age, Xiangling is still in the learning stage. She should not have developed the dark dishes that she will develop in the future, right?

Commander Ikari put his hands together in front of his mouth, looked at the table, and started brainstorming.

After analyzing the information from the past two days, the intelligence war is still very critical! Why is Zhongli so stable? His clones are spread all over the continent of Teyvat, and no matter what happens, he can't hide it.

The same goes for Wendy. Despite her eccentric personality and the fact that she doesn't do her job properly, she often stands on the statue and listens to various information from the wind.

Just being able to warn of various dangers in advance would make them invincible.

But you can't underestimate these gods just because they are nice to travelers in the game.

As long as they are gods, none of them are simple. The extreme control of elements alone has discouraged 99% of the owners of the Eye of God.

In this way, the power of the Thunder God is actually super-standard. The current Thunder God may have been influenced by his interpersonal relationships or his knowledge, and he has turned to using a knife to cut flesh.

Although she was also very powerful, she lacked the ability to gather intelligence, and coupled with the arrogance unique to warriors, this caused her a lot of trouble.

If she develops the power related to electromagnetic force, she will be as strong as Zhongli Wendy, and will be invincible. After all, electromagnetic force is everywhere.

Suddenly, it got dark around us.

Everyone

People and me

Everyone

What was going on? Looking at the group of big men in chef costumes with red eyes around him, he couldn't help but protect his hips with both hands.

The thirty-something uncle in the lead came out with redder eyes and said, "I'm Master Mao from Wanmintang, Xiangling's father. Is this the dish you asked Xiangling to order?"

"Dad, what are you doing?" Xiangling appeared from behind the crowd holding a plate.

When Master Mao heard the voice, he immediately lowered his head and approached Lin Zixuan. "Boy, Xiangling has only been learning for three months, and you are her first customer. If you dare to say the three words 'not delicious', then don't even think about entering Wanmin Hall in the future!" Then he made way.

Xiangling brought a plate with an irregularly shaped fried egg on the left, with a dark carbonized edge. The yolk was probably fully cooked. The two rice balls on the right were okay, with a normal color.

Under Xiangling's expectant eyes, Lin Zixuan poked the egg yolk in the middle with chopsticks, and it was indeed solid. Then he cut the fried egg in half and stuffed one half into his mouth. It was an ordinary fried egg with a bit of bitterness, and a slight sweetness in the bitterness. Was sugar added?

It's a great idea, but the temperature needs to be improved. In this era, there is no natural gas furnace like Blue Star, which can control the size of the fire as you like.

The initial steps of learning to cook, such as identifying ingredients and knife skills, have discouraged many people. Everyone can fry an egg, and if you calculate it out of 100 points, most people can get 90 points. But if you want to get more than 95 points, the cooking skills required are extremely high.

"It's a great idea. In addition to oil, adding a small amount of sugar to the pan can prevent the eggs from sticking to the pan and make them easier to shape. However, the heat is not controlled well. In the later shaping stage, a low heat is needed. You probably overcooked it with a high heat."

Suddenly, he felt that the red-eyed crowd around him was already steaming, and seeing that Xiangling was about to burst into tears, he quickly added.

"All in all, it's still acceptable! The master chef can rely on his long-term accumulated cooking skills to solve the problem of sticking to the pan. You actually added a small amount of sugar to create a buffer layer between the egg and the bottom of the pan.

I have to say that you have a talent for cooking. Cooking skills can be accumulated over time, but innovation is the most important thing for a chef. I look forward to eating your dishes in the future."

Seeing Xiangling sniffing and nodding her head desperately: "Big brother, I will try my best." Then she jumped and ran to the front kitchen.

"Boy, you're great! You know a lot about cooking!" Master Mao slapped Lin Zixuan on the shoulder.

"I have taught so many apprentices, but they all just copy my cooking. None of them can innovate. I have invented more than 300 dishes, but only 10 of them are well received. Innovation is always accompanied by failure. But if you don't innovate and just follow the old ways, then there is no future for cooking!"

"Well...I want to have a quiet meal." Lin Zixuan said hurriedly when he saw Master Mao's eyes were about to burn.

"Oh, okay. Next time you come to Wanmin Hall, I'll give you a 95% discount." Then Master Mao left with his chefs.

I wiped the non-existent sweat off my head. Could it be? Maybe? Perhaps? Will Wanmin Hall often produce dark dishes in the future?

After eating and drinking, I looked at the sky. It was just after six o'clock. There was a huge flow of people and cars, which was exactly the rush hour after get off work.

Let’s walk back to help digest the food.

Passing by the Lotus Pond Square, I saw that Zhongli's figure had disappeared and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

I saw a slender figure standing on the railing by the sea in the distance. She had long blue hair down to her waist, a divine eye on her waist, and two small red and black horns on her head.

After thinking for a while, could she be Ganyu, the very popular thousand-year-old secretary? This kind of face that attracts people's pity and the physique of a lucky beast are worthy of the Qilin bloodline.

Ganyu usually relies on secret methods to reduce her presence, otherwise, with her physique, she would probably attract tens of thousands of Liyue people to watch her.

It's almost like standing next to her and breathing in her air can bring good luck, just like a bug. And the most terrifying thing is her house-guarding effect.

It can be said that Klee has maxed out her luck, while Ganyu has her own lucky aura and can add it to others.

The people standing around her and showing her documents, couldn't they be Ningguang's three lazy secretaries: Bai Xiao, Bai Wen, and Bai Shi? They were really young, probably only about 14 years old.

That's right, a person in power will definitely feel at ease with a group of people he has brought up since childhood, even if they are a little dumb, as long as they are loyal. It may also be Ganyu's luck that prevented these three lazy secretaries from being fired.

I should go back first. Uncle Fu must be getting impatient without even a phone call. There is no need to force myself to show my presence in front of these immortals.

Gan Yu looked up at Lin Zixuan's departing figure, thinking about something. She remembered an old friend who often held her and fed her, and rubbed her head from time to time. She was so fat when she was a child, and it was his "contribution".

Unfortunately, that person had long been missing, and the Emperor didn't know his whereabouts either.

"Are you a descendant of that clan?"

Ganyu shook her head and put the matter behind her.

When I returned to the entrance of the villa, I saw Uncle Fu and five men in uniform chatting beside the cart. The men had the word "Xuanyuan" on their chests. But when they saw Lin Zixuan coming, they all lowered their heads.

"Young Master Xuan!" Uncle Fu hurried to Lin Zixuan's side.

Lin Zixuan waved his hand. "Don't worry, Uncle Fu. I'll open the door first and we'll talk slowly after we get in."

I watched Uncle Fu direct the men to carry all the large and small bags into the house, and then told them to wait at the door.

Let Uncle Fu sit down first, find the tinder, and light the candle. Lin Zixuan sighed and thought to himself: I want an electric light.

"Uncle Fu, there is something I have to ask."

"Master, please speak."

"I've seen that all the nobles and big families in Liyue have guards and maids. Why am I the only one here, without even a servant to take care of the housework?"

"This story started a year ago. The master found something wrong with the account and asked me to go to the Qingcezhuang branch to get the account book. Then the master took the account book home and remembered that he had to go to Liuli Pavilion for a social event in the evening.

As a result, that night, the storehouse of the Qingce Village branch was burned, and the master's original residence was also burned. Although the fire was put out by the Qianyan Army who rushed over and arrested many people, the account books and information were all gone, leaving only the basement intact.

Fortunately, the old lady took you to Wangshu Inn to enjoy the flowers. The master was furious. If he hadn't gone to the social event, he might have lost his life.

He contacted the Qianyan Army to investigate the case, and also spent a lot of money to hire a descendant of an immortal who specializes in mental health and is good at hypnosis to determine whether the case was a lie. If you don't check, you won't know. Once you check, even the master himself is shocked.

Except for the five guards led by Uncle Fu, the others are all undercover agents from various major businesses. Uncle Fu catches a lot of undercover agents every year, but I didn’t expect that all of them were undercover agents this time.”

Lin Zixuan was confused. You guys are playing with the brewery here, right? Uncle Fu, you are Gin?

"Later, the master bought the current villa and sent someone to renovate it. The master and his family lived in Wangshu Inn for almost half a year.

After the Lantern Festival, my old master arranged for me to escort a batch of grain to Inazuma. The one who transported the goods this time was the new Dragon King Beidou. Although he was young, he had a good reputation. I left these five loyal guards to the master, but I didn't expect them to be...

I heard from the captain of the guards that after I went to Inazuma, the old lady might have been afraid and didn't want to recruit a bunch of undercover agents. After that, I didn't plan to buy a maid. I ate in the restaurant, took a bath in a nearby bathhouse, and relied on the waiters in the restaurant to clean and do the laundry.

These five guards are too embarrassed to see you because they are not protecting you well, so they can only protect you secretly near Master Xuan's house.

They just lack the ability, not the loyalty. Please don't take it personally. The Cheng-level guards are actually good fighters among ordinary people.

According to the captain of the escort team, the master's behavior was very strange from the beginning. Because the old house was burned, the master had to transport the materials in the basement of the old house back to the new house. In the second week of my voyage, the master kept muttering: artifact, artifact.

At the end of the month, the master went to the General Affairs Department to look up map information. On the way back, he met a businessman from the Kingdom of Winter who had been stationed in Liyue for a long time, and they went to the Liuli Pavilion to discuss business.

Then the merchant from Zhidong Country canceled the transaction on the day of the transaction, which made the master so angry that he couldn't eat. After all, it was just a verbal agreement, and he planned to sign the contract on the day of the transaction to complete the transaction. It was useless to bring it to the General Affairs Department.

The next month, the master went to the Adventurer's Guild in Liyue and Mondstadt to offer a reward for a terrain information map.

At the end of the month, Mond received news that the object had been found, and it was completed by a 5-year-old adventurer. It was said that there were also several older adventurers around 60 years old, but they gave the results of the mission to the young adventurer.

It is said that they were imprisoned in the ruins for more than ten days, and found it when they came out to look for food after removing the mechanism. "

Lin Zixuan scratched his head. Could this be the little guy possessed by the god of bad luck?

"In the middle of the third month, the master plans to return to Konoha Village first to see if there is more accurate information in the ancestral home, and then go to Mondstadt. Because I am still in Inazuma, the master went to the adventurer to hire two God's Eye adventurers who have reached the 'transformation' level.

During the escort, the strangest thing happened. A bolt of lightning struck the two horses pulling the carriage and killed them. Then the two adventurers seemed to be hit hard in the waist and flew to the left and right.

Then they looked at the convoy, and ran away without looking back. Five guards immediately protected the carriage, but an armored man holding a purple sledgehammer knocked them to the ground one by one.

Finally, the unconscious guard saw a woman wearing a strange headdress covering her right eye out of the corner of his eye.

When the guards woke up, they found that they were surrounded by treasure-stealing gangs in ordinary attire, and the master's family was locked up in another place. The rest of the guards didn't know where they were. "

Lin Zixuan quickly poured tea for Uncle Fu. The information from these loyal guards was very useful.

This time, the Kingdom of Winter sent out two debt collectors and one Thunder Hammer for the artifact. There may also be a Thunder Warlock and an Ice Warlock, plus the lady executive who played with ice and fire and was hunting down the adventurer.

There is only one possibility that could allow two adventurers of the Transition level to escape: they encountered a strong person of the Combination level.
