Genshin Impact: Report to the Emperor! Xiao Shen is creating people again

The Salt of the Earth is far from peaceful today.

"I am an archaeological researcher from the Kingdom of Winter. I have already reported to the General Affairs Department of Liyue. Can't you see the official permission document?"

"Are you listening to what people are saying? Sigh... The entrance to this ruins is sealed by a mysterious force. If you can't break the seal, who can get in?"

"Me!... What about you? You call yourself an archaeologist? You can't even see this, you don't know that, are you any good at it?"

"But, but I saw those three people just walked in!"

Until Shen Qianluo and Zhongli walked to the entrance of the Salt Demon Ruins from afar, the two were still arguing and depressed.

Two thousand years ago·The part about the sealer of the ruins·Shen Xiaoqianluo blinked innocently and raised his head in thought: "Are you two arguing about the seal?"

Clement of the Fatui and Wanyan, the archaeologist, paused at the same time. When they looked back suddenly, they found two people, one big and one small, looking at them at the same time. Their expressions became confused and strange: "Who are you two...?"

This combination is really too strange. If these two polite people are adventurers, they are obviously not very professional. If they are archaeologists, they don't look very reliable. As for ordinary merchants passing by... they don't seem to be very likely.

Shen Qianluo tilted his head and thought for a moment, then pointed at Zhongli and said, "This is my teacher." He then pointed at himself and raised the corner of his mouth with a harmless smile, "And I am his parent."

Clement:?

Wanyan:……?

"Anyway, please treat us as chivalrous people who happened to pass by." Shen Qianluo smiled lightly while maintaining a calm but cheerful tone, "I may have some ideas about the seal of the salt in the earth. If you want to unlock it..."

The kid glanced at his teacher and was about to trick the two of them into going somewhere else with some serious nonsense, but the two people opposite him opened their eyes wide with excitement first.

"Wait... are you Zhongli Keqing from Wangsheng Hall, the knowledgeable gentleman? What a coincidence! I have wanted to hire you as my consultant for a long time, but I didn't expect to meet you here!"

"You have silver hair and a flute, you are small and shabby, could it be that you are the reincarnated flute god Qianluo that everyone is talking about!?"

Zhongli was silent for a moment, but still nodded and said, "It's me. But today, I have no plans to accept the commission."

Shen Qianluo stared at Wan Yan's exaggerated expression for a moment, and raised his eyebrows slightly, unnaturally: "Little... and mean?"

He could even sense Zhongli's extremely subtle smile, and the expression in his eyes became slightly strange.

Come to think of it, wouldn't the people of Liyue have already used him as a model to write a series of stories including "Turning into Liyue's Flute God, and then becoming small and mean" and "Please, my mean Flute God"?

"Xiao Shen, I have been wanting to find you for a long time, but I have never been able to find the opportunity. Regardless of whether you have really lost your memory or not, there is one thing I want to confirm with you."

Wan Yan lowered her voice and noticed that the child was looking at her with clear and obedient eyes. Her distressed expression became even more solemn and determined: "Do you... hate the Rock God?"

Shen Qianluo:?

"Or to put it another way, you were killed by the Rock God Morax, the same as the Salt Demon of the Salt of the Earth, right?"

Shen Qianluo blinked and stopped thinking: "Is that so?"

“Is that really the case?!”

"Yeah, that makes sense."

"My speculations over the years have indeed been confirmed by him!... If that's the case, the Salt Demon God Heulia was so kind, she must have been assassinated by him in a dishonorable way during the war! Morax was jealous of the power of the Salt Demon God, so...!"

"Apart from the possibility that these things will never happen, this statement is quite interesting."

Finally, Shen Qianluo looked at Zhongli, then at Wanyan, and added with a faint smile before the Emperor punished him privately.

Wanyan:?

"No, there is no possibility of it happening? You must have been bewitched by Morax... Yes, history is whitewashed by the victors, Xiao Shen, you must have been bewitched by Morax!"

Shen Qianluo shook his head repeatedly, his little face full of sincerity, and he praised to a new level.

"But in my impression, the emperor is majestic, strong and sturdy, with an overwhelming aura, his words are as good as gold, he is good at both literature and martial arts, can fight and resist, can create the world, can go through mountains of swords and seas of fire, and can even cook~"

"Cook?" Clement of the Fatui at the side was a little overwhelmed. He felt that the image of the Rock God in his mind seemed to be more majestic, and also seemed strange.

Unfortunately, at this moment, Mr. Zhongli, who was well-known in Liyue for hating the Emperor, spoke up: "But putting aside the speculation of assassination, during the Demon God War two thousand years ago, even the Rock God Morax might not be an absolutely fair person."

Shen Qianluo: "? Sir, what are you talking about? Since war is called war, it is only natural that we should fight to the end. The so-called absolute justice can only be discussed in the prosperous times."

Zhongli: "Now is the era of prosperity for mankind. He will certainly not escape the criticism that he deserves for his actions back then."

Shen Qianluo: "He is not wrong. Many decisions back then were made by Yanshen and Xiaoshen together. If you say that the Emperor is not good, it only proves that Xiaoshen has failed."

Zhongli: "It is a blessing to have the Xiao God fight alongside me and give me guidance. But whether I listen or not is another kind of severance."

Shen Qianluo: "Everyone in the world says that I am the former Xiao God. Sir, you are so sure about what you said, could it be that I am the reincarnation of the Emperor?"

Zhongli: "…There is no way to prove the theory of reincarnation. I am just expressing my personal opinion."

"The God of Xiao is indeed deeply bewitched by Morax..." Wan Yan looked at Zhongli, and showed the joy of meeting a companion by chance. "And Mr. Zhongli is really eloquent and clear-minded. He does not believe in boasting and interpretation. What he said is exactly what I really think in my heart!"

As for Clement, who looked left and right, he clapped his left hand and his right hand, and suddenly realized.

"I understand. Mr. Zhongli is indeed as rumored. He has a lot of objections to the God of Rock and prefers the God of Flute. As for the God of Flute Qianluo... he seems to like the God of Rock more?"
