Genshin Impact: I, who only wanted to play badly, have become famous

"In this way, all the victims of Qingxupu have been buried outside the northern suburbs and can rest in peace."

The village chief was filled with gratitude throughout the whole process: "Thank you, Master Hu and Mr. Zhongli. If it weren't for the "Wangsheng Hall"'s willingness to help for free and arrange the funeral for everyone, given the current situation of our "Qingxupu", I'm afraid they would have to be buried casually in the ground and forgotten like this."

Zhongli said: "I have always believed that death is not the end of life, but oblivion is."

Hu Tao nodded in agreement: "Both the people of Qingxupu and us will always remember this disaster and commemorate the innocent people who died in it. Natural disasters and man-made disasters will not stop us from moving forward. They will only make us work harder to survive and do our best to create a better tomorrow."

"Well said." Zhongli clapped his hands in support.

Walnut proudly put one hand on his waist and adjusted his hat with the other.

"Is oblivion the true death... Alas..." The old village chief stood tremblingly with his crutches, trying hard to straighten his hunched body.

"This tragic disaster has killed far more people than just our village. This heart-wrenching story will probably be passed down from generation to generation. How can we forget it..."

With the help of Keqing and Ganyu, Baizhu distributed herbs that could resist the plague to every household, and at the same time treated all patients who suffered from various diseases caused by long-term hunger, without stopping from morning to night.

But fortunately, the result was good. Not only did most people immediately show signs of improvement, but even their originally fearful hearts were calmed down because of the medicine.

“This is what a doctor is. It’s difficult to cure diseases, but what’s more important is to heal the heart.”

Looking at the puzzled faces of Keqing and Ganyu, Bai Shu smiled and explained: "The famine brought about by this locust plague not only caused heavy casualties, but also shocked the hearts of these poor people."

"Qingxupu has been an important grain production area in Liyue for many years. They have lived in this rich place for a long time. Not to mention the children, even the elderly have probably never experienced such a thing."

"If something like this happens suddenly, anyone would feel scared, not just now, but also in the future. It's like the aftershocks after an earthquake. No one can predict where the most vulnerable point is."

"So what I should do is not to help them cure their illness, but to mend their hearts that are frightened by the shock. How to mend this rift is the most important thing."

Keqing suddenly realized: "I understand, Mr. Bai, you are also a part-time psychologist!"

Bai Zhu nodded: "Let's understand it this way for now."

From one side, Xiangling and Guoba ran over.

"Mr. Bai, I have cooked a big pot of medicinal porridge according to your wishes. Do you want to share it with everyone?"

"Well, if you are ready, share it immediately."

Xiang Ling scratched her head in embarrassment: "Mr. Bai, are you sure? I just dared to taste it..."

Keqing asked curiously, "How is it?"

Xiangling shook her head vigorously: "It's so bitter, it almost made me vomit the food I ate the night before."

"Eh~" Keqing and Ganyu both showed expressions of horror.

Bai Shu said: "Good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease. The bitterer the medicine, the better the effect."

Xiangling said, "But if everyone can't eat it, wouldn't you have wasted your efforts in vain?"

Keqing also said: "Besides, given their current physical condition, it would be difficult for them to accept something so bitter..."

Gan Yu asked: "Is it possible that you don't usually eat bitter things, so your reaction is a bit strong? Otherwise, let me give it a try. I usually prefer to eat some flowers and herbs, and I can tolerate bitter things to a certain extent."

Xiangling's face was filled with worry: "Ms. Ganyu, you still need to be cautious."

Ganyu took the porridge handed to her by Xiangling, took a small sip, and drank it in big gulps as if nothing had happened.

Bai Zhu smiled knowingly: "See, it's not so bad."

"Cough... cough... cough..." Ganyu frowned and tried hard to hold the bowl with her trembling hands.

Xiangling suddenly said, "Ms. Ganyu, I just noticed that your skin is well maintained. We have been exposed to the wind and sun for so many days here in Qingxupu, but only your skin is still so white and translucent!"

Keqing complained: "That's not the case. She must be so miserable that her face has turned pale."

Bai Zhu was very confused: "Is this medicine really too bitter? It seems that we still need to continue to improve it."

On the other side...

Xu Si supported his grandmother and walked in front of Ye Luo and Ningguang.

Ye Luo bowed respectfully: "Grandma, do you still remember me?"

Grandma Xu Si smiled happily: "Of course I remember. When Xiaoliu brought you here for the first time, I already remembered every one of you. I just didn't expect that you are so capable. You are the real saviors..."

Ye Luo waved his hand: "You are overpraising us. We are just fulfilling our responsibilities and obligations and doing what we think is the right thing to do."

Xu Si turned to his grandmother and said, "Grandma, I brought you here to see the two adults because I have something important to tell you."

Grandma Xu Si hesitated for a moment, and Ye Luo and Ningguang also paused for a moment.

"Could it be that incident?" Ye Luo was troubled: "This kid is usually a reckless person, is he going to tell the truth?"

Xu Si smiled and said, "The culprit of Qingxupu has been found, the famine has passed, and after the locust plague, production here can resume as before."

"But after what happened this time, I also want to go somewhere further. Liyue is so big, there must be better scenery out there, and more ways to support my family."

Xu Si's grandmother asked, "Do you want to go to Liyue Harbor with the adults?"

Xu Si nodded: "Grandma, you really understand me. This time when I went to Liyue Harbor, I saw a lot of new things and discovered a lot of opportunities. I think I still have a good chance of doing something big and outstanding there."

Ye Luo and Ningguang did not say anything to expose his true intentions. They also felt that this was just a white lie. Xu Si could say this because he knew what he was about to face and did not want to escape.

Grandma Xu Si seemed to have tears in her eyes: "I know that you have grown up and it is time for you to go out and see the world. I used to worry that you would go out like your parents and brothers and sisters and never come back. But I also know that you will grow up and see more beautiful scenery and places you will yearn for more. How can this small place of "Qingxupu" and an old lady like me stop you from moving towards a better future?"
