The Homeless Man of Teyvat

Chapter 239: A Moment to Eternity

Chen Tianfeng and Xiao Gong exchanged stories. The former half recalled and half made up, picking out interesting stories from Liyue or Mondstadt that Zhongli had told, and telling them in a relaxed tone; the latter told stories full of childishness or about fireworks.

After each of them told three or five stories, Ying finally opened her eyes and looked at the two people who were chatting happily. Her eyebrows frowned, then relaxed, and she interrupted the story sharing session where the two were talking: "I... the general issued the Eye Hunting Order. What do you think is wrong?"

Chen Tianfeng turned his head to look at her, his eyes swept up and down, and said incredulously: "You closed your eyes and rested for so long, just to worry about this?"

And he hasn't figured out the answer yet.

So, people can practice martial arts, but they can't just practice martial arts. If a good brain is left unused, it is no different from having no brain.

Ying naturally ignored Chen Tianfeng's "disrespectful" look and looked at Xiao Gong: "What do you think?"

"Me? Hmm..."

Xiao Gong thought carefully and suddenly repeated the understanding of the Eye of God by most people in Teyvat: "When a person's desire is strong enough, the gods will cast their eyes on him, and the Eye of God will appear. This represents the recognition of the gods, and it is also the proudest thing for the owner of the Eye of God."

Ying frowned slightly, and Chen Tianfeng smiled softly.

The girl with golden orange hair raised her head and looked at Ying: "But now the gods are going to take back this recognition... Is it because our wishes are too foolish and unbearable?"

"The implementation of the Eye Hunting Order has nothing to do with wishes. The general has no intention of belittling the wishes of any Inazuma people."

"Then why did the general implement the Eye Hunting Order?"

"For eternity."

"Eternity?"

"People with the Eye of God have the ability to guide the elements, and if this power falls into the hands of people with bad intentions, it will undoubtedly be a harm to the people of Inazuma."

Ying spoke calmly, explaining the reason why he implemented the Eye Hunting Order: "Knights break the law with force, and bandits don't care about any laws. The purpose of the Eye Hunting Order is not to confiscate the Eye of God from everyone, but to take away the Eye of God from those who are harmful to Inazuma."

For ordinary people, in addition to monsters and poisonous beasts, there are many other dangers in the wilderness of Inazuma. For example, the wandering warriors called [Sea Rangui], most of them are in groups of three or five, holding swords and carrying swords. In name, they are comprehending the natural sword skills, but most of the wandering warriors are worse than the treasure-stealing group.

They block the road and rob people, kill people for money, and some even kill people just for fun.

If these humanoid monsters have the Eye of God in their hands, the suffering of ordinary people will undoubtedly become worse.

Xiao Gong was slightly stunned: "... Ying, do you think so?"

"Yes." Ying nodded, noticed Xiao Gong's expression, and frowned slightly: "Why, you don't agree?"

"No, I don't disagree. If the Eye Hunting Order is really like this, it's really good." The girl shook her head gently and pursed her lips: "But... But, am I also a harmful person to Inazuma?"

Ying was slightly stunned, and then his eyes fell on the Eye of God on Xiao Gong's waist, not understanding why she said that.

Xiao Gong took off the Eye of God, held it in her palm, and looked down: "... Half a month ago, the samurai of Tenryo Bugyo came to Naganohara and said that they were ordered by the general to confiscate the Eye of God of all Inazuma people except the three Bugyo... Let me not be ungrateful and hand over the Eye of God as soon as possible, otherwise they will seal off Naganohara."

She raised her head, still smiling, but it made people feel a little distressed: "Fortunately, Miss Kamisato of the Society Bugyo lent a hand and said that Naganohara was the property of the Society Bugyo and I was a member of the Society Bugyo, so I deceived those samurai."

"Ying, tell me, am I also the kind of person who is harmful to Inazuma?"

"..."

Ying was silent and didn't know how to answer.

Is Xiao Gong a person who is harmful to Inazuma?

This question naturally does not need to be thought about. She is just an ordinary fireworks girl with many wonderful ideas, which makes the summer of Narukami Island more colorful.

But if it is harmful to Inazuma... Xiao Gong is not as harmful as the hill people sleeping under the trees in the wild.

She is kind, simple, lively, and full of energy. She is a young girl who will be loved by anyone who sees her.

But such a girl almost lost the Eye of God under the Eye Hunting Order.

Tianling Fengxing, those bastards!

Anger flashed in Ying's beautiful purple eyes, and then he thought of something and turned his head to glare at Chen Tianfeng.

"Why are you glaring at me?"

Chen Tianfeng was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted: "This matter has nothing to do with me. I just smuggled Inazuma these two days. It was you... It was the general's men who betrayed Him."

You can't put all the blame on him, right? Inazuma has so many blames. If you put them all on him, then he can really deserve the four words [unspeakable].

"It's really not you?"

Ying's eyes still have some doubts.

Chen Tianfeng grinned: "I don't even bother to do such a thing."

Not to mention that such a thing violates his morality, he would never want to create it. Just to say that if he really wanted to kill Inazuma, or provoke chaos, just to see the tragedy of wives and children being separated and families being destroyed, why would he need to go through so much trouble?

He also had to go to the trouble of bewitching and manipulating the fools who followed the Tianling, and directly scooped a handful of water from the dead holy spirit world and sprinkled it on the farmland, Inazuma would easily become a hell on earth with chaos and starving people everywhere.

Xiaogong's eyes widened little by little as he listened to the conversation between the two. He suddenly understood something in his heart, and he became a little embarrassed because of this suddenness.

The girl quietly glanced at the shadow, then quickly looked away.

This, this, this... this beautiful elder sister named Shadow, is the Great Gosho-sama? !

Oh my gosh! Then wouldn't it be wrong for her to accuse the General in front of the General?

It's over, it's over, what should we do?

But she didn't expect that the General would be so gentle and patiently explain to her why He issued the Eye Hunting Order... Well, the General's appearance seems to be different from the familiar image...

Is this what Liyue people often call "private visits in private"?

Xiao Gong whispered in his heart, his expression sometimes worried, sometimes happy, changing again and again.

Ying looked away, saw Xiao Gong's expression, and immediately understood the reason. She thought for a while and simply took off her disguise: "Xiaogong."

"Ah, I'm here!"

Xiao Gong suddenly came back to his senses. When he raised his head, the figure of the General came into view: "Shadow... General... um..."

She stammered, not knowing what to call it for a moment.

"Just call me Shadow."

Ying didn't care what the title was. She tapped her fingers on the table, and the untouched bowl of ginger soup showed slight wrinkles: "Xiaogong, in your opinion, what is eternity?"

"Eternity..." Xiao Gong pondered for a long time, and finally shook his head and said honestly: "I don't know what eternity you are pursuing. In your eyes, the fireworks I love may be the farthest thing from eternity, because she It’s just a flash of glory, but it has no practical meaning to Ina’s wife.”

"But for me, the fireworks rise into the sky and bloom brilliantly, reflecting in the eyes of everyone who looks up in hope. That brief moment of brilliance is the eternity in my heart."

Ying was inexplicably stunned, and the words that her sister, Inazuma's first Raiden General, once said to her suddenly rang in her ears:

Just pursue it, even if it’s just a moment of light, we at least have this moment.

A moment... eternity?

search? now?

Ying's heart was a little disturbed, and there was also an imperceptible sadness. She stood up suddenly, turned her wrist, and tightened the thread connecting her to Chen Tianfeng: "It's time for us to set off."

"So anxious?"

Chen Tianfeng was surprised. He still wanted to stay for a meal to see if he could try Xiao Gong's craftsmanship.

"Huh? Are you leaving now?"

Xiao Gong was stunned for a moment, wanting to persuade him to stay, but he didn't know how to persuade him to stay.

How can a mortal make a god stop?

She pursed her lips, suddenly thought of something, and was about to run somewhere: "Wait a moment! I'll get the umbrella!"

"No need."

Ying took a step forward and glanced up at the sky.

In an instant, the clouds disappeared and the rain cleared, and the colors shone brightly throughout the area.

She turned around, looked at Xiao Gong, and said softly: "The sky has cleared up for Dao Wife."
