Genshin Impact: I’m really not a daddy

Time is a strange thing.

When you are in it, you always feel that time passes very slowly, as if it has stopped.

But when I think about it carefully, I feel confused.

Those trivial things have become memories of a few years ago without even realizing it.

In the gray sky, fine snowflakes slowly fell.

The snow became heavier and soon the ground was covered with a layer of white gauze.

But in the heavy snow, there was a person sitting quietly on the ground.

Although a thick layer of snowflakes had piled up on his body, he seemed not to notice the cold. He still sat in the snow and stared straight ahead.

"sough"

Suddenly, it seemed like snowflakes fell into his clothes. His shoulders shook slightly and the snow on his shoulders fell to the ground.

As if he thought someone had stuffed snow into his clothes on purpose, he subconsciously turned his head and looked to the side.

But he was alone in the snow.

After being stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a bitter smile.

"Yeah...it's no longer here."

The little thing that always fooled around him was gone.

Few people know that this place was once a flower field.

Whenever the warm sun melts the snow, the place always blooms with life again.

But as time goes by, the flower fields have gradually disappeared.

"So...you didn't bring me here again?"

What a…

Bai Chu pursed his lips, stretched out his hand tremblingly, gently brushed away the snowflakes on the stone tablet in front of him, and slowly opened his mouth:

"Fool."

It’s not just the flower fields that have disappeared;

And the people in the flower fields.

"...I obviously promised you that if you want to come, I can accompany you at any time..."

His voice was trembling, as if he was suppressing something.

...In the end, it was the last time.

Hu Tao has passed away.

It's the end of life.

Bai Chu has been watching her since she was a child.

Ten years, twenty years, thirty years...

From a girl to a young girl, watching her change from ignorance to gracefulness.

Watching her establish the "Palace of Rebirth" and gradually become mature from a girl...

Until the end, she looked so old that she couldn't even straighten her waist.

"Bai Chu...don't be so sad..."

Until her memory was blurred, she still remembered him and comforted him with her old voice.

"After I die...you can't be too sad..."

"You promised me... you must be happy in the future..."

"Ah...but even if you find someone you like, you must never forget me..."

She was already dying, and when she was lying on the bed and saying these words, she had difficulty breathing.

Despite this, she still tried hard to shine in front of him.

"It would be nice if I could always stay by your side..."

It's a pity...it can't be done...

Before passing away, Hu Tao thought so, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier.

Time has left countless traces on her face.

But she didn't let her forget what she once said to Bai Chu.

At the last moment, a smile appeared on the old face with difficulty.

"Hey, Bai Chu... help me.

"I want to... go and see there again..."

So Bai Chu buried her in the flower field.

But the flower fields are gone.

Since then, the first generation leader of the Purangsheng Hall passed away and was buried in an unknown place.

Moreover, this hall master who has cured countless people in his life and was pursued by many people has never married.

"Buried here...Are you satisfied..."

Bai Chu murmured softly.

Before meeting the system, Bai Chu was an ordinary person.

He knows that the life of ordinary people is very short compared to immortal species.

Therefore, he had long been prepared for Hu Tao to die of old age.

but--

"As expected...it will still be very sad."

Hu Tao her, this child is obviously so lively and likes to do things...

Why do you die in winter?

He died in the cold ice and snow.

The white snow fell on his face and gradually turned into water droplets.

"As a result, Liu Yun and Zhong Li still don't know about this place..."

"Didn't you say that this is our secret base... Now, this is my secret base alone."

"...If only you were still here."

"... "

Naturally there will be no response, otherwise it would be damned.

"Hey, are you okay?"

The system sounded worried. Bai Chu shook his head and smiled flatly.

"I am fine."

No matter how long a person lives, he will only live a hundred years.

Hu Tao was smiling before he died, and that was enough.

"You...you have to show that you have no regrets in the end."

Are you afraid that I will feel sorry for you?

"What a self-indulgent brat...willful and unwilling to listen to what others say. You've always been like this."

Bai Chu slowly closed his eyes, and the elemental power around his body surged.

In the torrent of elemental power, the sky gradually cleared up, and the snowflakes accumulated on the ground gradually melted.

Suddenly a flower grew on the ground. Then came the second and third flowers.

In the blink of an eye, a flower field was formed.

"...In the end, this is all I can do for you."

A girl like a butterfly should rest in a place full of flowers.

Rather than the cold ice and snow.

"I'm leaving."

Bai Chu stood up, bent down and touched the stone tablet, his tone was very soft.

"I will come back to see you in the future."

"Haven't you always wanted to see the world? I will go and see it."

"Then, when I come back, I'll tell you all those stories."

In this way, you won't be too lonely, right?

After standing for a while, Bai Chu straightened up, turned and left.

"—"

After he left, the petals of a flower trembled slightly.

It was clearly winter, but a fiery red butterfly shook its wings and flew up with fluttering wings.

-

Life still has to go on.

It's just that compared to before...

His life became a little more deserted.

When he was reading, there was no little girl next to him who would suddenly jump out and make faces at her and make strange noises, and no one would keep shouting that he was hungry while he was cooking.

"teacher…"

Liuyun has grown up.

The plain blue clothes she wore perfectly highlighted her tall figure. Her waist-length blue hair was bound by a ribbon and fell quietly behind her.

Compared with her before, Liu Yun now has a much cooler personality and no longer thinks about going out all day long.

At this moment, her cold face was full of confusion.

"Why do people die?"

"this one…"

Bai Chu leaned on the recliner and read a book. After hearing her question, he thought for a moment, closed the book, and reached out to rub her head.

"You need to find this problem yourself. Teacher, I can't teach you everything."

"Oh..." Liuyun was a little disappointed.

She is different from Bai Chu.

Bai Chu understood that human lifespan was short, but Liu Yun was different.

She had a long lifespan from the beginning, and she had no clear concept of life.

Immortals' perception of time is different from humans.

If she hadn't met Bai Chu and all kinds of people, she might not even have the slightest feeling about human death.

To her, a hundred years is not a long time. But for ordinary people, living a hundred years is an expectation.

"Will the teacher also die in the future?"

"me…"

Bai Chu was stunned for a moment, then he laughed dumbly and shook his head.

"Maybe. But I will stay with you until Liuyun grows up."

"Then, can Liuyun not grow up?" Liuyun pursed his lips and whispered.

"I don't want to lose my teacher again..."

"Idiot, don't think so much."

Bai Chu shook his head and opened the book in his hand again. He said to Liu Yun while reading.

"You just have to be yourself now."

"In the future...you will understand these things if you have more contact with people."

"Well..." Liu Yun puffed his mouth and shook his head vigorously.

"I don't want to interact with people! I don't want to know this!"

She was afraid that when she understood these things, Bai Chu would be like Hu Tao.

When Hu Tao died, she cried so hard that she couldn't breathe.

She obviously didn't want to cry, but the tears couldn't stop flowing out. It was useless even if she hid.

Sadness was like a parasite, eating away at her psychological defenses.

She hated this feeling.

Bai Chu didn't tell her where Hu Tao slept, and she didn't ask.

She was afraid that the uncomfortable feeling would reappear when she saw Hu Tao's monument.

"Hmm..." Looking at Liu Yun who pushed open the door and ran out, Bai Chu shook his head.

This kind of thing...can't be decided by Liuyun thinking or not thinking.

…She will be Liyue’s immortal in the future.

This makes it impossible for her to be separated from others.

Let me tell you here, Hu Tao is Hu Tao, and Hu Tao is Hu Tao. The previous statement that Hu Tao is the reincarnation of Hu Tao is only in the protagonist’s perception. Each of them is an independent individual. They will not be reincarnations, and there will be no memory awakening. Like, walnuts are walnuts, just walnuts
