The daily life of a sickly girl in Liyue Port
Chapter 427 Relics and Disputes
I've overdone it, it seems a bit weird no matter how I think about it, forget it, as long as Kurumi is okay, Qianxue pulled the quilt up to cover her cheeks.
Seeing this, Ying smiled helplessly, looked at the ball on the bed, then got up and left the room. Thinking of how Qianxue and Hu Tao looked when she heard that Qianxue was in trouble and she rushed over today, her eyes flickered with unclear emotions.
Just after Ying opened the door and left, she saw Funina standing outside the door.
"Traveler... Is Qianxue okay?"
Funina spoke in a low voice, without the exaggeration in her previous tone. She was very worried about Qianxue. She had just walked out of Hu Tao's room, and Hu Tao was still in a coma.
Both Violet and Sigwen said that Hu Tao was not seriously injured, which made Furninna feel relieved. However, Qianxue's health was not good to begin with, and it would be worrying if she was injured again.
"Funina, why don't you go and see for yourself? Is Funina really not going to tell us about the prophecy?"
The prophecy has already happened, but they still know nothing about it. They can't get an answer even after asking Funina.
Facing Ying's question, Funina avoided his gaze and showed no intention of answering.
"this…"
Seeing this, Ying shook her head slightly and left, leaving Funina with her eyes downcast. A moment later, Funina opened the door and saw a ball on the bed covered with a quilt.
"Qianxue."
Hearing Funina's voice, Qianxue hummed softly under the quilt.
Funina walked up and sat beside Qianxue's bed. She stretched out her hand, hesitated for a moment, and then put it down again. The room fell into silence.
Just when Funina didn't know what to say, she saw Qianxue poking her head out from under the quilt. There were traces of tears on her face and her eyes were slightly red. She looked very pitiful.
"Fufu, I want to eat cake."
.....................
By the next day, Qianxue was able to walk normally, but Hu Tao still hadn't woken up. Qianxue walked out of Hu Tao's room and sighed.
Even Ying and the others were busy investigating something, but luckily, Funina was always with her. There was no trial at the Opikle Opera House recently, so she had plenty of time.
At this time, in a ruin.
Ying, Paimon, Navilette and Navia stood in front of four stone walls, three of which had stone slabs on them. Finina was unwilling to tell them the truth about the prophecy, so they had to come to find out the truth.
Paimon looked at the stone slab in front of him curiously and said, "Stone slab? It looks like it's enshrined here... Can I take it down and have a look?"
"It's better not to move."
Hearing Navia's words, Paimon nodded and looked at the stone slab again, "Well, there are four positions in total, but there are only three stone slabs. The stone slab that should be embedded in the first empty position is missing."
While Villette was observing the surrounding environment, he found that the walls around the stone wall were also damaged.
“The nearby wall is also damaged.”
Careful Paimon discovered some words written on the bottom of the stone wall. "There are words written underneath. Let me see. 'This is a country that should be destroyed. I will record its future history in the past'... What does it mean?"
"It feels like someone left this slate and these words on purpose. But does he mean that Fontaine should be destroyed?"
Upon hearing this, Navillatte looked at the second slate and said, "That is what the prophecy shows. The pictures on the slate do correspond to the prophecy, such as the second picture."
After hearing what Villette said, everyone turned their eyes to the second stone slab.
"There is a person kneeling here who looks very pious. Behind him there is another person kneeling in the same posture. What is this direction she is facing? An island floating in the sky?"
The island in the sky. When Ying saw the stone slab, she pondered in her heart, is it the Sky Island?
The content on the third stone tablet is that a group of people are surrounding Funina, and Funina in the stone tablet seems to be sinking in the water.
"The person in the middle of the third painting is... Lady Finina? Lord Water God falling into the water?" Navia asked puzzledly while looking at the third stone wall.
"There are a group of people surrounding her? I don't quite understand. Are these people in the water?"
Paimon was equally puzzled and turned his gaze to the contents on the fourth stone slab. The contents on the fourth stone slab were well known to the people of Fontaine.
"The fourth one... I know it's exactly the same as the prophecy that has been circulating in Fontaine..."
When Navillatte saw the contents of the fourth stone tablet, he said: "Everyone dissolved into the sea, leaving only the water god weeping on his throne."
"It really matches the prophecy..."
Ying observed that these three stone tablets could indeed match Fontaine's predicted crisis, and Villette was silent. After she stretched out her hand, a blue light merged into the stone tablet, but she could not get any information.
"There should be more information hidden in these tablets, but perhaps because the first one is missing, I can't easily decipher its meaning... I'm very sorry."
"Please don't say that. It is not Lord Villette's duty to interpret these additional things."
At this time, Paimon next to him asked, "I always feel that there is something strange about these paintings being connected together. Hmm..."
But Paimon couldn't say it for a while. After hearing what Paimon said, Navia and Navilette also looked at the contents of the painting on the stone wall again.
"It should be a problem with the order of the third and fourth paintings."
At this time, Ying discovered the problem first. After hearing Ying's words, Navia immediately understood what was strange.
"Yes, if the four paintings are in chronological order, the fourth painting should show the flooding of Fontaine first, and then the water god in the third painting will also be submerged by water, right?"
"Here the order of the slabs is reversed."
After Villette finished speaking, Ying was more concerned about the content on the second stone tablet.
"Is the person in the painting confessing something?"
If Qianxue were here, she would know that the person in the painting was probably atoning to Sky Island for stealing the power of the primordial sea and creating humans without permission.
"If we go by time... Lady Funina is only in the third painting, so the person in the second painting could be the previous generation of the Water God."
Navia stroked her chin and looked at the contents on the stone slab. She had only seen the water god of previous generations in records.
"Egolia? I've never seen her in person, but the image here is consistent with the records. The previous water god knelt down to the floating island in the sky, as if confessing his sin..."
The first person Villette saw was Fernina. When he was born, Egolia had already died, and even he had never seen Egolia.
But, Zhongli, Wendy and Ying must have seen them before, Ying thought to herself as she listened to Villette's words.
"Did the Water God commit a crime? Otherwise, why would he do such a thing...
I'm still wondering, why are there such ancient tablets here? Judging from the content... could this be the origin of the prophecy? Does that mean someone has seen these tablets?"
After hearing what Navia said, Paimon felt that it made sense, but he still had doubts in his heart.
"But who was the person who created the stone tablet and left those words?"
Hearing this, Villette was silent for a moment. The only person in Villette's heart who knew all this was him.
"…It seems we still have to look for clues from Funina."
"Well, in that case, there's no need to waste time. There are no more clues nearby. Let's go back."
"That's right, it's better to go back to a safe place first."
Hearing the conversation between several people, Ying thought to herself that, in fact, no matter who its creator was, it no longer mattered now. What mattered was whether things would really happen as predicted.
After coming out of the ruins, everyone went their separate ways. Navia still had to go to Baisong Town to take a look, while Ying and Paimon returned to Gray River to rest, and Navilette was going to ask Finina everything she knew tomorrow.
At this time, Qianxue was sitting at the desk in Kurumi's room. With nothing to do, she continued to write her novel, occasionally turning her head to look at Kurumi who was lying on the bed.
A sigh was heard in the room. This was the first time that Qianxue saw Kurumi so weak, and Fucaros couldn't be contacted for some reason.
She held the earrings Fukaros gave her in her palm, lowered her eyes and murmured, "Fukaros..."
Another day passed, Qianxue walked out of Hu Tao's room, ready to go out for a walk, just in time to meet Sedna who looked anxious.
"Qianxue!"
"Hmm? Sedna, you look so anxious, what happened?"
It was the first time that Qianxue saw Sedna so anxious, and Sedna saw Qianxue as if she had seen a savior.
"Lady Funina and Lady Villette seem to be arguing. Please go and take a look!"
Hearing Sedna's words, Qianxue was surprised that these two people suddenly started arguing. But seeing Sedna's anxious expression, Qianxue still decided to go and take a look.
"okay, I get it."
When Sedna brought Qianxue to the door of Villette's office, she heard Funina's voice coming from inside.
"So, I have made my point very clear!"
It was a tone of voice that Qianxue had never heard before. It seemed that the situation was indeed a little bad. Then came Villette's calm yet majestic voice, which was more serious than usual.
"The problem has not been effectively resolved, and any excuses between you and me are meaningless. I have no intention of offending you, but you should also understand your position. You are the Demon God of Water, Fukaros.
Take a look at this, the list of victims of the Baisong Town accident."
After that, Villette handed a list to Funina.
After taking the list, Funina looked at the names on it, her eyes trembled slightly, and even her tone of voice was trembling.
"We were unable to stop it this time, and I won't allow it to happen again. If Chiyuki and Kurumi hadn't arrived in time, the list of victims would have been even longer."
After hearing what Violet said, Furninna's breathing became a little faster, and Violet turned around and looked at Furninna seriously.
"Again, you must tell me everything you know.
Yesterday I found three stone slabs in the ancient ruins near Baisong Town. Do you know anything about this?"
Suppressing her slightly rapid breathing, Funina said in a casual tone: "...What? You suddenly ask me questions in an interrogative tone...I know nothing about this matter.
But, you just said that you found it in an ancient ruin?"
"Yes, that's why I asked you. There were originally four slates. The first one is missing. The other three are engraved with different pictures, which should be related to the prophecy."
Finina whispered softly, "Prophecy..."
Furninna didn't know much, all she could do now was to play the role of a god and then end the trial.
"Among them, the second stone tablet depicts the former water goddess Egolia, who is kneeling on the ground facing the floating island in the sky, as if confessing her sin. Are you not aware of this?"
"I don't know. I've never seen these slabs."
Funina shook her head. She really didn't know about these things.
“…I ask again, you really don’t have any information about the previous generation of water gods?
The information I interpreted from the stone tablet is that the water goddess Egolia once apologized or confessed for something, and you should be the one who knows about this. "
The door of Villette's office was wide open, but the two people talking inside obviously did not notice Qianxue standing outside the door, with Ying and Paimon who had just arrived behind her.
After hearing what Villette said, Qianxue thought to herself that the floating island in the sky he mentioned should be the Sky Island, and Egolia kneeling down and confessing her guilt should be what happened after Egolia created human beings and was discovered by Heaven.
It turned out that Violet didn't know all this, and judging from Fernina's expression, she seemed to be completely unaware of it either.
Then...should she tell anyone?
Just as Qianxue was thinking, Fucaros' voice sounded in her mind again.
"Qianxue knows, please don't tell that Villette and the others."
Only... if they know nothing, will they bring Funina to trial. Only in this way can her plan be realized.
"Fukalos..."
"I'm sorry, if you believe me, don't tell anyone what I told you before, and don't interfere too much. Otherwise... the plan will fail, and the five hundred years of persistence that Funina and I have maintained will be ruined."
Hearing this, Qianxue sighed inwardly. What was going on? But since Fucaros said so, Qianxue could only keep what she said in her heart.
"Every god may have his own secrets. The previous generation is the previous generation, and I am me. It's not strange that I don't know.
I understand your anxiety, but... I'm sorry, I really don't have anything to share with you."
After hearing what Fininna said, Navillatte's emotions fluctuated rarely, his breathing became rapid, and he looked like he was trying hard to suppress his anger.
"Ms. Funina, now that things have come to this, I must say that I have long known that you have been mobilizing various forces to secretly conduct some kind of investigation.
All signs indicate that you have been secretly investigating the prophecy. It is not strange for you, a water god, to investigate the prophecy, but it is very strange that you claim not to know the secret of Egolia and do nothing after the investigation. "
…At this moment, Qianxue was suddenly patted on the shoulder. She turned around and saw it was Ying and Paimon.
"Did Funina and Violet have an argument?"
"It seems to be talking about prophecies and the previous water gods."
