Genshin Impact: Without the Eye of God, the Original Man Witnesses the Original

"Am I... dreaming?" Nilu blinked. "The bright purple-red color... According to legend, the real Patisalan became extinct with the death of the flower god. If Dina Zedai hadn't helped to find it, then it must have been a dream! Only something that no longer exists in this world can appear."

Looking at the two pots of purple-red Patisallan used as decoration on the flower bed of the theater stage.

She looked a little happy. "We who are celebrating the Flower God's Birthday devoutly have received a response from the Little Auspicious Grass King."

"Ah!" Ying and Paimon looked at Nilu in astonishment. After a little reminder, they realized that this was a dream.

This last step to crack the dream cycle, imagined to be the most difficult step, turns out to be so simple?

I guessed wrong, but I wasn’t wrong either.

"Nilu, in your understanding, people from Xumi don't dream, right? What's wrong with you?" Paimon asked in confusion.

Nel smiled and said, "Have you heard the story of the 'First Sage'? The story of the journey to find the Grass God in order to escape the disaster."

Ying and Paimon were stunned for a moment. This seemed to be the story that Dina Zedai once told. Was that person the "first sage"?

Is this story related to dreams?

"In the first half of the story, he certainly hadn't become the 'first sage' yet, but in the sequel... his piety and wisdom were recognized by the Grass God, and the Grass God decided to bless him..." Nilu smiled and added the true ending of the story.

All kinds of incredible scenes appeared before the first sage, as if all the knowledge in the world was presented to him in a concrete form... After mastering all the knowledge he could understand, he missed his parents and wife after being away from home for a long time.

So, in the smile of the Grass God, the next second, he woke up and found himself lying on the bed, with his wife in his ear blessing him as he was about to go find the Grass God.

It was all just a dream.

He never set out, but has gained knowledge and wisdom.

Later, when disaster struck, he resolved all the disasters in the real Xumi City, founded the Institute of Teachings, and became the first sage.

"Haha! I suddenly thought of Jiang Yi's dream trial." Paimeng always felt that this story sounded familiar.

"Is the dream trial also a blessing in the form of a dream similar to that of the Grass God?" Nilu was a little curious, "The one you mentioned..."

Paimon hesitated for a moment, then looked down and suddenly found that Zeus had disappeared.

Like the great sage who disappeared.

Wait, this wasn’t done by Nilu!

In the aisle of the Grand Bazaar, the real Zeus and the real Dina Zede were running hard.

"boom!"

In the Grand Bazaar, where golden lanterns shone brightly, the door of the passage was suddenly pushed open.

Paimon remembered something important: "...Nelue, let's not talk about this. We must wake up soon, just like the sage in the story."

"Yeah." Nilu nodded and turned to look at the bottom of the stage. Zeus had gone downstairs at some point, and standing next to him was Dina Zedai, who looked excited and expectant.

But there seemed to be another figure next to her, which she could feel but could not see, as kind and great as Lord Grass God.

"It's almost time." Nilu took a deep breath, put her hands on her chest, and adjusted her breathing. "It's time to dance the 'Dance of the Flower Goddess'. But in the dream... the 'Dance of the Flower Goddess' can also be danced more gorgeously."

A joyful smile appeared on her rosy face.

Ying and Paimon came to the bottom of the stage and waved to Dina Zedai.

The Grand Bazaar darkened and the golden lamps went out.

In the dimly lit ceiling of the tree cave in the Grand Bazaar, an emerald green grass elemental crystal butterfly fluttered and landed between Nilu's slender fingers on the stage of the Zubair Theater, transforming into a ball of blue light burning like water.

As Nilu was about to retract her palm, the light turned into a soft blue glowing water lily, which blossomed from a bud state, with its petals opening. It shrank in Nilu's arms as she clasped her hands together, and then reappeared forward as her hands opened.

The water lily curtain, as gorgeous as the aurora, carries with it shooting stars carrying twinkling points of light, spreading outward.

The entire stage became bright, the extinguished golden lamps lit up again, and the green vines and pink flowers hanging on the stage became more lush and beautiful.

The long flags with golden pendants and the bells next to them formed a more magnificent stage.

Wherever the meteor passed, the darkness retreated, and all the people in the dream were attracted. Looking up, they gathered in front of the fountain flowerbed of the Zubair Theater.

The twinkling points of light embellish Nilu's elegant and beautiful figure.

"Sorry for the wait, everyone!"

"Let me perform the Flower God Dance for the gods!"

The dance she had practiced for a long time began naturally. She danced lightly with her fingers raised, her long red hair flying, and her skirt dancing, spinning, and falling with the blue gradient...

The flower crown on its head sparkled brightly, and its outstretched arms transformed the top of the tree hole into a bright blue night sky with stacked clouds and a vast starry sky.

Under her feet was a red stage with golden flowers in full bloom, and Nilu's emerald green eyes were particularly charming.

The melodious music and drum beats, and the swirling lights are destined to be unforgettable.

The dream melted away in the light spots. The treetops of the huge sacred tree in Xumi City and the roof of the Ordinance House disappeared together, forming countless tiny streams of light that flew towards the night sky, brilliant and dreamy.

Paimon couldn't help but exclaim in amazement at Nelue's graceful dance in the Grand Bazaar.

Nilu spun and spun on the golden floral carpet in the center of the stage, and then faced the audience again, swaying her jade-colored hands, like a natural water lily that takes away people's dreams, holy and enchanting.

Everyone's figures transformed into golden consciousness bodies, emitting golden light.

On the stage, golden glass-like light rain fell, blending with the golden beams.

Nilu's figure melted into the light.

"The song is over and the dance is over. It's time to wake up." Nashida gently touched Jiang Yi who had just left the dream. "Nilu's flower goddess dance is very beautiful."

Jiang Yi opened his eyes.

In the morning, the Evening Bird alarm clock appeared from the cabin and started ticking.

He was returning to Nello's bed.

Nilu on the bed did not change out of her flower goddess costume last night and fell asleep in despair. At this moment, she opened her eyes drowsily, her head felt dizzy, as if she had slept for a long time.

A furry touch appeared on my face, with a little itchiness.

"Zeus!" Nilu was no longer sleepy and hugged Jiang Yi. "Last night, I dreamed of Little King of the Lucky Grass, you, Dina Zedai, Ying and Paimon, and all the audiences in the Grand Bazaar. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, I danced the gorgeous 'Dance of the Flower Goddess'."

Jiang Yi rubbed Ni Lu's cheek with his cat face and his cat paws swayed.

"Huh? You don't want to say that you had the dream too?" Ni Lu scratched Jiang Yi's chin with a smile.

She got up, changed her clothes and walked out.

The order of the Great Sage cannot be ignored, and the arrangements made by the Grand Bazar for the "Birthday of the Flower Goddess" need to be cancelled.

Jiang Yi covered his eyes.

After following Neelu out the door, he ran out on his own.

All the way to the Health Home, they saw Dina Zedai, Catherine, and Ying and Paimon, who were already frightened and had taken off the void terminal.

"Wow! It's Zeus... How did you know I was here?" Dina Zedai got off the bed and looked happily at Jiang Yi who had arrived. "I dreamed of Nilu dancing the 'Dance of the Flora Goddess' last night. I seem to remember your acrobatic performance as well..."

Jiang Yi paused and looked at Catherine.

"I helped preserve a memory related to your performance..." Catherine, or rather Nashida, blinked her right eye.

"Ah! This guy is here..." Paimeng whispered to Ying, "I really can't tell! This cat is Jiang Yi."

"Catherine is Narcida, Zeus is Jiang Yi...Role-playing is very popular in the Kingdom of Wisdom." Ying couldn't help but put her hands on her hips. She also figured it out. Catherine who appeared in the Grand Bazaar that day was also Narcida.

The two guys she had found were all hanging around in front of her, but she didn't notice them.

"I remember there's a saying that goes, 'What you think about during the day, you dream about at night. No matter how bizarre the dreams are, they are essentially a combination of memories you've experienced." Dina Zedai smiled and hugged Jiang Yi, "But it's so strange, what I dreamed about last night were things I had never experienced."

"In my dream, you found me accurately and took me to see the Dance of the Flower Goddess."

She was filled with joy and showed a happy smile. It was clearly a dream, but it seemed not to be a dream. Just like the "first sage", the dream seemed to be a blessing bestowed by Lord Little Auspicious Grass King to make up for everyone's regrets.

"Dina Zedai, wait... wait... a moment." Paimon looked at the cat held in Dina Zedai's arms.

"What's wrong?" Dina Zedai looked at them in confusion.

"Nothing... nothing..." Paimeng waved his hands, but he and Ying looked at Jiang Yi with contempt.

Jiang Yi didn't let Dina Zedai hold him for long before he jumped off her.

It is still the morning sun, but it is finally not a dream.

The dormant Xumi City and Port of Ormos became prosperous and bustling again. The special curfew of one night was over. Except for someone who discovered that the Vikara Trading Post and a certain place in Port of Ormos were destroyed and attacked by unknown monsters, no one had any memory of yesterday's dream cycle.

I'm just very mentally exhausted.

Yes, the dream went on for a long, long time, day after day, but the reality was just like in the sage’s story, only one night passed.

The sages of the Court of Ordinances minimized the impact and borrowed people's dreams for one night. No one would suspect that they had some plan to exploit the people of Xumi.

Xumi's economy and politics are operating as usual. Those who should wear void terminals continue to wear void terminals. Tourists from various countries only felt that they were not used to the climate and the rainforest was stuffy, which led to them not sleeping well yesterday. There were no complaints or diplomatic disputes at all.

"I'm so angry! No one knows the great sage's conspiracy except us." Paimon stomped his feet in anger.

Dinazedai had gone to rest, and her family and Dishiya came and took her back.

Last night, Dina Zede slept in a temporary residence. It was Nashida, who possessed Catherine, who secretly took Dina Zede to the Health Home.

That period of time was actually when Jiang Yi and the executive girl were confronting each other.

"The Church's governance of Xumi has never had any major problems. This is the first time I've seen them go off track." Nashida said, "Although there is no suspicious information in the void, and key personnel deliberately did not wear void terminals... but with Jiang Yi's information, we still know the intentions of the sages. It's a pity that the conspiracy that did not happen has turned into an open conspiracy that is happening with force."

“We have no power to correct or punish… and have no choice but to fall into their plans.”

"Huh? What's your intention?" Paimon asked puzzledly.

Ying looked at Jiang Yi who was squatting on the railing.

They have been transferred to the dream world, to the street next to the bench they often go to, where they can overlook the port of Xumi City.

"Should we tell them?" Nashida asked Jiang Yi.

"Okay!" Jiang Yi nodded. "We have the result, but we lack evidence pointing to the result to find helpers and conduct a trial. We still have to collect the evidence when the time comes."

There is no way, this is what the noble and righteous path requires.

He and Nashida had discussed this before.
